Next, the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 10 will be described.
The pachinko gaming machine 10 has a low-probability state and a high-probability state as gaming states with different jackpot probabilities. The jackpot probability is the probability of winning the jackpot in the jackpot lottery (internal lottery). The high-probability state is a gaming state in which the jackpot probability is higher than that in the low-probability state. In the high-probability state, the chance of winning the big hit lottery is higher than in the low-probability state, so that the game state is advantageous. The high-probability state is a so-called “probability change state (probability change state)”.

  The pachinko gaming machine 10 is provided with a low base state corresponding to the first state and a high base state corresponding to the second state, as game states in which the ratio of the number of prize balls to the number of shot game balls is different. The high base state is a gaming state in which the probability of the game ball entering the second starting opening 13 is higher than that in the low base state. The high base state is a so-called "electric power support state", and the low base state is a so-called "non-electric power support state". In the high base state, the probability of the game ball entering the second starting opening 13 is increased, so that the game state is advantageous. In the high base state, the advantage of entering the game ball into the second starting opening 13 is higher than in the low base state.

  For example, the high base state can be realized by performing one control arbitrarily selected from the three controls described below, or by performing a combination of a plurality of controls. The first control is the variation time shortening control of the ordinary symbol that makes the variation time of the ordinary game shorter than that in the low base state. The second control is the probability fluctuation control of the normal symbol that changes the probability of winning the normal win lottery (normal win probability) with a higher probability than in the low base state. The third control is an opening time extension control for making the total opening time of the first variable member 16 in one normal hit game longer than that in the low base state. In addition, as the opening time extension control, the number of times of opening the first variable member 16 in one normal hit game is set to be larger than that in the low base state, and once the first variable member 16 in the normal hit game. It is advisable to perform at least one of the controls for making the open time of the control longer than in the low base state. Further, the high base state may be realized by combining the fourth control described below. The fourth control is a variation time reduction control of a special symbol that makes the variation time of the special game (for example, the average variation time) easier to be shorter than that in the low base state. When performing the variation time reduction control of the special symbol, the high base state is a so-called "variation time reduction state".

In this way, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured to be able to execute the effect symbol variation game during the execution of the special symbol variation game. Then, in the effect game, the combination of effect symbols corresponding to the special symbols fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game is fixedly stopped and displayed. When the big hit symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, the big hit symbol combination is fixedly stopped and displayed in the effect game. For example, the jackpot symbol combination is a symbol combination such that the effect symbols in all rows are the same, such as “777”. When the small hit symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, the small hit symbol combination is fixedly stopped and displayed in the effect game. For example, the symbol combination for the small hit may be a part or all of the symbol combinations which will be described later, or a symbol combination that is fixedly stopped and displayed only when the small hit is won. Good. Further, when the deviating symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, the deviating symbol combination is fixedly stopped and displayed in the effect game. For example, the outlying symbol combination is a symbol combination such as "323" or "426" in which at least one row of effect symbols is different from the other row of effect symbols. In the effect game, the effect design is temporarily stopped and displayed before the fixed stop display. In the present specification, the “temporary stop display” means a state that is different from the fixed stop display, such as “sway variation state”.

  In the effect game, the display mode of the effect symbol may be the reach mode (reach is formed), and the reach effect may be performed. In the reach mode, a production pattern imitating the same number is temporarily stopped and displayed in a specific column (for example, the left column and the right column) of a plurality of columns, and a column different from the specific column (for example, the middle column). ) Is a state in which the effect design is continuously variably displayed. The reach effect may include a plurality of types of reach effects in which the characters to be made to appear and the effect of the effect design are different. The reach production includes a normal reach production and a super reach production performed after the start of the normal reach production. Then, when the super reach effect is executed during the execution of the special game, the jackpot expectation may be set higher than when only the normal reach effect is executed. The reach effect is executed during execution of the special game.

First, the special symbol input process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a determines whether or not a game ball has entered the first start opening 12 based on whether or not a detection signal from the first start sensor SE1 has been input (hereinafter, referred to as first input determination). .. When the determination result of the first input determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the first special pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment) (hereinafter , The first hold determination). When the determination result of the first suspension determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the first special suspension number and updates it. Further, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 to display the updated first special reserved number. The main control CPU 40a stores, in the output buffer, control information (hereinafter, referred to as a first hold number command) capable of specifying the updated first special hold number. The control information (command) stored in the output buffer is output to the sub-board 41 in the interrupt processing after the next time. When the determination result of the first hold determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a acquires a random number generated in the main board 40 and stores random number information based on the acquired random number in the main control RAM 40c. At this time, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the first special game so that the random number information can be specified in the storage order. In the present embodiment, the random number information for the first special game is stored in the main control RAM 40c, so that the execution thereof is suspended until the execution condition of the first special game is satisfied. The pachinko gaming machine 10 can suspend execution of the first special game. The random number information may be the acquired random number itself or information obtained by processing the random number by a predetermined method. In addition, for example, the random number is a random number used for a lottery such as a big hit lottery or a small hit lottery (random number for a lottery), a random number used for determining a special symbol (random number for a symbol lottery), and a random number used for determining a variation pattern (variation). Random numbers for pattern lottery) and the like.

  In addition, after storing the random number information for the first special game in the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a causes the second start opening 13 to open based on whether or not the detection signal from the second start sensor SE2 is input. It is determined whether a game ball has entered (hereinafter referred to as the second input determination). If the determination result of the first input determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a makes the second input determination. Similarly, when the determination result of the first hold determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a makes a second input determination. When the determination result of the second input determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process. On the other hand, when the determination result of the second input determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the second special pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment). (Hereinafter, referred to as a second hold determination). When the determination result of the second hold determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process.

  When the determination result of the second suspension determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the second special suspension number and updates it. The main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 to display the updated second special reserved number. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the output buffer, control information (hereinafter referred to as a second hold number command) capable of specifying the updated second hold number. If the determination result of the second hold determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a acquires the random number generated in the main board 40, stores random number information based on the acquired random number in the main control RAM 40c, and a special symbol. Input processing ends. At this time, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the second special game so that the random number information can be specified in the storage order. In the present embodiment, the random number information for the second special game is stored in the main control RAM 40c, so that the execution thereof is suspended until the execution condition of the second special game is satisfied. The pachinko gaming machine 10 can suspend execution of the second special game. As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured to be able to suspend the execution of the special game.

Next, the special symbol start process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the special game execution condition is satisfied (hereinafter, referred to as execution determination). In the execution determination, the main control CPU 40a makes an affirmative decision when the hit game (big hit game, small hit game) is not in progress and is not in the special game, while a negative decision is made during the win game or in the special game. To do. When the determination result of the execution determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, when the determination result of the execution determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the second special suspension number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. When the second special reserved number is 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a performs a second special symbol start process related to the execution of the second special game. When the second special pending number is not 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the first special pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. If the first special reserved number is not 1 or more, the main control CPU40a ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, if the first special reserved number is 1 or more, the main control CPU40a, after performing the first special symbol start process related to the execution of the first special game, ends the special symbol start process.

First, the first special symbol start process will be described.
In the first special symbol start processing, the main control CPU 40a updates by subtracting 1 from the first special reserved number stored in the main control RAM 40c. The main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated first special reserved number is displayed. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores a first reserved number command capable of specifying the updated first special reserved number in the output buffer. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the first special game from the main control RAM 40c. Upon reading the earliest random number information, the main control CPU 40a erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Then, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win the big hit, based on the read random number information and the big hit determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to a big hit lottery (big hit determination) of whether or not it is a big hit. For example, whether or not to win the big hit may be determined by whether or not the value of the random number information and the big hit judgment value match. The main control CPU 40a performs a jackpot lottery so that the probability of winning the jackpot is higher in the high-probability state than in the low-probability state. The determination as to whether or not to win the big hit may be made based on whether or not the value obtained by adding the value of the random number information and the big hit judgment value exceeds a predetermined value.

  Then, when the big hit in the big hit lottery related to the first special game (big hit lottery in the first special symbol start process), the main control CPU 40a, a big hit symbol (special symbol) to be fixed stop display in the first special game, The jackpot variation pattern (variation pattern) is determined. At this time, the main control CPU 40a determines the big hit variation pattern classified into the first special symbol variation pattern. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol based on the value of the random number for symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern based on the value of the random number for variation pattern lottery. In addition, the fact that the jackpot pattern is determined by lottery corresponds to the type of jackpot being drawn. Then, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the main control RAM 40c, information that can specify the determined variation pattern (hereinafter referred to as variation pattern information) based on the determined variation pattern. Further, the main control CPU40a, based on the determined special symbol, the main control RAM40c stores information (hereinafter, referred to as special symbol information) that can specify the determined special symbol. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines the variation pattern, so that the function as the variation pattern determination unit is realized.

  On the other hand, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the first special game, it is determined whether or not the small hit is won based on the read random number information and the small hit determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. To do. This process corresponds to a small hit lottery (small hit determination) of whether or not it is a small hit. For example, whether or not to win the small hit may be determined by whether or not the value of the random number information and the small hit determination value match. The determination as to whether or not to win the small hit may be made based on whether or not the value obtained by adding the value of the random number information and the small hit determination value exceeds a predetermined value.

  When a small hit is won in the small hit lottery related to the first special game (small hit lottery in the first special symbol start process), the main control CPU 40a causes the small hit symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the first special game (special The pattern) and the small hit variation pattern (variation pattern) are determined. At this time, the main control CPU 40a determines a small hit variation pattern classified into the first special symbol variation pattern. The fact that the small hit symbol is determined by lottery corresponds to the kind of small hit being selected by lottery. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol based on the value of the random number for symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern based on the value of the random number for variation pattern lottery. Then, the main control CPU 40a stores the variation pattern information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined variation pattern. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores special symbol information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined special symbol.

  On the other hand, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the first special game and the small hit is not won in the small hit lottery (in the case of being out), the main control CPU 40a is out of the fixed stop display in the first special game. The symbol (special symbol) and the deviation variation pattern (variation pattern) are determined. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol based on the value of the random number for symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern based on the value of the random number for variation pattern lottery. Further, for example, in the case of not winning the big hit in the big hit lottery related to the first special game and not winning the small hit in the small hit lottery, the main control CPU 40a carries out the reach lottery, and in the case of winning the reach lottery. A variation pattern with out-of-reach may be determined, and a variation pattern without out-of-reach may be determined when the reach lottery is not won. Then, the main control CPU 40a stores the variation pattern information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined variation pattern. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores special symbol information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined special symbol. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a performs the big hit lottery and the small hit lottery corresponding to the win lottery, thereby realizing the function as the win lottery means.

  After determining the special symbol in the first special symbol start processing, the main control CPU 40a generates control information (hereinafter, referred to as a symbol designation command) capable of specifying the determined special symbol, and stores it in the output buffer. In addition, after determining the variation pattern in the first special symbol start processing, the main control CPU 40a generates control information (hereinafter, referred to as variation pattern designation command) capable of specifying the determined variation pattern, and stores it in the output buffer. . When the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command are stored in the output buffer, the main control CPU 40a ends the first special symbol starting process.

Next, the second special symbol start process will be described.
In the second special symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a updates the second special reserved number stored in the main control RAM 40c by subtracting 1. The main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated second special hold number is displayed. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores a second hold number command capable of specifying the updated second special hold number in the output buffer. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the second special game from the main control RAM 40c. Upon reading the earliest random number information, the main control CPU 40a erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Then, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win the big hit, based on the read random number information and the big hit determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to a big hit lottery (big hit determination) of whether or not it is a big hit. For example, whether or not to win the big hit may be determined by whether or not the value of the random number information and the big hit judgment value match. The main control CPU 40a performs a jackpot lottery so that the probability of winning the jackpot is higher in the high-probability state than in the low-probability state. The determination as to whether or not to win the big hit may be made based on whether or not the value obtained by adding the value of the random number information and the big hit judgment value exceeds a predetermined value.

  Then, when the big hit in the big hit lottery related to the second special game (big hit lottery in the second special symbol start process), the main control CPU 40a, the big hit symbol (special symbol) to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the second special game, The jackpot variation pattern (variation pattern) is determined. At this time, the main control CPU 40a determines the big hit variation pattern classified into the second special symbol variation pattern. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol based on the value of the random number for symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern based on the value of the random number for variation pattern lottery. In addition, the fact that the jackpot pattern is determined by lottery corresponds to the type of jackpot being drawn. Then, the main control CPU 40a stores the variation pattern information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined variation pattern. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores special symbol information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined special symbol.

  On the other hand, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the second special game, it is determined whether or not the small hit is won based on the read random number information and the small hit determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. To do. This process corresponds to a small hit lottery (small hit determination) of whether or not it is a small hit. For example, whether or not to win the small hit may be determined by whether or not the value of the random number information and the small hit determination value match. The determination as to whether or not to win the small hit may be made based on whether or not the value obtained by adding the value of the random number information and the small hit determination value exceeds a predetermined value.

  When the small hit is won in the small hit lottery related to the second special game (small hit lottery in the second special symbol start processing), the main control CPU 40a causes the small hit symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the second special game (special The pattern) and the small hit variation pattern (variation pattern) are determined. At this time, the main control CPU 40a determines a small hit variation pattern classified into the second special symbol variation pattern. The fact that the small hit symbol is determined by lottery corresponds to the kind of small hit being selected by lottery. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol based on the value of the random number for symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern based on the value of the random number for variation pattern lottery. Then, the main control CPU 40a stores the variation pattern information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined variation pattern. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores special symbol information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined special symbol.

  On the other hand, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the second special game and the small hit is not won in the small hit lottery (in the case of being out), the main control CPU 40a is set to stop and display in the second special game. The symbol (special symbol) and the deviation variation pattern (variation pattern) are determined. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol based on the value of the random number for symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern based on the value of the random number for variation pattern lottery. Further, for example, in the case of not winning the big hit in the big hit lottery related to the second special game and not winning the small hit in the small hit lottery, the main control CPU 40a performs the reach lottery and wins the reach lottery. A variation pattern with out-of-reach may be determined, and a variation pattern without out-of-reach may be determined when the reach lottery is not won. Then, the main control CPU 40a stores the variation pattern information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined variation pattern. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores special symbol information in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined special symbol.

  After determining the special symbol in the second special symbol start processing, the main control CPU 40a generates a symbol designation command and stores it in the output buffer. Further, after determining the variation pattern in the second special symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a generates a variation pattern designation command and stores it in the output buffer. When the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command are stored in the output buffer, the main control CPU 40a ends the second special symbol starting process.

  When the special symbol start process ends, the main control CPU 40a performs a process different from the special symbol start process to execute the special game. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the special game is started. The main control CPU 40a measures the variation time associated with the variation pattern determined in the special symbol start process. Then, the main control CPU 40a, the information display panel 22 so that the special symbol determined in the special symbol start process is fixedly stopped and displayed when the variation time period associated with the variation pattern determined in the special symbol start process elapses. Control. Further, the main control CPU40a generates control information (hereinafter, referred to as an end designation command) for instructing the end of the special game when the change time associated with the change pattern determined in the special symbol start process elapses, Store in output buffer.

Next, the prize ball processing performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
When the detection signal from the first start sensor SE1 is input, the main control CPU 40a controls so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out. When the detection signal from the second start sensor SE2 is input, the main control CPU 40a controls so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out. When the detection signal from the count sensor SE3 is input, the main control CPU 40a controls so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out.

Next, the big hit process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a executes the big hit process after causing the big hit symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, and causes the big hit game. In the big hit process, the main control CPU 40a specifies the kind of big hit game based on the big hit symbol (that is, kind of big hit) determined in the special symbol start process. Then, the main control CPU 40a starts control for causing the specified big hit game after the end of the big hit special game. Therefore, the main control CPU 40a causes the big hit game by executing the big hit process. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the big hit game is generated after the big hit is won. That is, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the big hit is won, the big hit game is generated after the end of the special game.

  In the big hit process, the main control CPU 40a stores the opening command in the output buffer. The main control CPU 40a measures the opening time when the opening command is stored in the output buffer. Further, the main control CPU40a, when the opening time has elapsed, performs a process for executing a round game. That is, the main control CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 so that the special winning opening 14 is opened according to the opening mode (opening pattern), and starts the round game. After starting the round game, the main control CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 so that the special winning opening 14 is closed when the first opening game ending condition or the second opening game ending condition is satisfied, End the round game. The main control CPU 40a repeats the processing for executing the round game until the upper limit number of round games defined for the big hit game is completed. The main control CPU 40a stores the round command in the output buffer each time the round game is started. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores the ending command in the output buffer when the final round game is completed. After storing the ending command in the output buffer, the main control CPU 40a measures the ending time. Then, the main control CPU 40a ends the big hit process when the ending time has elapsed.

Next, the game state process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a sets a value capable of specifying control to the high probability state in the probability state flag stored in the main control RAM 40c after the end of the first big hit game and after the end of the second big hit game. To do. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a high-probability state command) capable of specifying that the high-probability state is a high-probability state, when the probability state flag is set to a value that can specify the high-probability state control. Store in buffer. Further, the main control CPU 40a sets a value capable of specifying that the probability state flag stored in the main control RAM 40c is controlled to a low probability state after the end of the third big hit game. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a low probability state command) capable of specifying the low probability state when the probability state flag is set to a value capable of specifying the control to the low probability state. Store in buffer.

  After the jackpot game is over, the main control CPU 40a sets, in the base state flag stored in the main control RAM 40c, a value with which it is possible to specify the control to the high base state. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a high base state command) capable of specifying the high base state when a value capable of specifying the control to the high base state is set in the base state flag. Store in buffer. Further, when the main control CPU 40a sets a value capable of specifying control to the high base state, the main control CPU 40a sets the upper limit number of special games for controlling the high base state as the remaining number of special games for giving the high base state. It is stored in the control RAM 40c. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a sets "100" as the upper limit number of times of the special game controlled to the high base state after the end of the second big hit game and after the end of the third big hit game.

  Then, the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the remaining number of times of the special game to which the high base state is given, each time the special game is executed. When the remaining number of times of the special game to which the high base state is given becomes 0, the main control CPU 40a controls the base state flag to the low base state in accordance with the end of the special game in which the remaining number of times becomes 0. Set a value that can identify. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a low base state command) capable of specifying the low base state when a value capable of specifying the control to the low base state is set in the base state flag. Store in buffer. Incidentally, the main control CPU40a, when the big hit game occurs, sets a value capable of specifying controlling to a low probability state to the probability state flag, and a value capable of specifying controlling to a low base state to the base state flag, respectively. To do.

Next, a normal symbol input process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
In the normal symbol input processing, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the game ball has passed (entered) the gate 18 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the gate sensor SE4. When the game ball does not pass through the gate 18, the main control CPU 40a normally ends the symbol input process. On the other hand, when the game ball passes through the gate 18, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the number of ordinary holdings stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment). When the number of ordinary reservations is not less than the upper limit number, the main control CPU 40a ends the ordinary symbol input processing. If the number of ordinary reservations is less than the upper limit number, the main control CPU 40a updates the number of ordinary reservations stored in the main control RAM 40c by adding 1. In this case, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated normally reserved number. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a normal hold number command) capable of specifying the updated normal hold number in the output buffer. Next, the main control CPU 40a acquires a random number generated in the main board 40 and stores random number information based on the acquired random number in the main control RAM 40c. In this case, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the normal game so that the random number information can be specified in the storage order. The random number information may be the acquired random number itself or information obtained by processing the random number by a predetermined method. In addition, for example, the random number is a random number used in the regular hit lottery (ordinary hit lottery random number), a random number used in the determination of the regular symbol (normal symbol lottery random number), a random number used in the determination of the variation pattern related to the regular game (normal variation) Random numbers for pattern lottery) and the like. After that, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process.

Next, the normal symbol start process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
In the normal symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the execution condition of the normal game is satisfied. The main control CPU 40a makes an affirmative decision when the normal hit game is not in progress and is not in the normal game, while making a negative decision when it is in the normal win game or in the normal game. When the execution condition of the normal game is not satisfied, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start processing. On the other hand, when the execution condition of the normal game is satisfied, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the normal hold number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. When the number of normally reserved is not 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process. When the number of ordinary reservations is 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the number of ordinary reservations stored in the main control RAM 40c to update it. In this process, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated normally reserved number is displayed. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores an ordinary hold number command capable of specifying the updated ordinary hold number in the output buffer.

  Next, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the normal game from the main control RAM 40c. When the main control CPU 40a reads the first random number information, it erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win the normal win based on the read random number information and the normal win determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to a normal win lottery (normal win determination) of whether or not it is a normal win. For example, the main control CPU 40a may perform the normal win lottery so that the probability of winning the normal win is higher in the high base state than in the low base state. When winning in a normal win, the main control CPU 40a determines a normal win symbol (normal symbol) to be derived in the normal game and a variation pattern related to the normal game. In addition, the fact that the normal winning symbol is determined by lottery is equivalent to the type of ordinary winning being selected by lottery. Further, in the case of non-winning in the normal win, the main control CPU 40a determines an out-of-normal symbol (normal symbol) to be derived in the regular game and a variation pattern related to the regular game. The main control CPU 40a may determine the variation pattern related to the normal symbol or the normal game by lottery using the read random number information. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the normal symbol based on the value of the random number for normal symbol lottery, and determine the variation pattern related to the normal game based on the value of the random number for ordinary variation pattern lottery. For example, the main control CPU 40a may determine the variation pattern related to the base game such that the variation time of the base game is shorter in the high base state than in the low base state.

  Then, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the main control RAM 40c, information (hereinafter, referred to as normal variation pattern information) capable of specifying the determined variation pattern for the normal game based on the determined variation pattern for the normal game. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a normal fluctuation pattern designation command) capable of specifying the determined normal fluctuation pattern in the output buffer. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores information (hereinafter, referred to as normal symbol information) that can specify the determined normal symbol in the main control RAM 40c based on the determined normal symbol. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores control information capable of specifying the determined normal symbol (hereinafter, referred to as a normal symbol designation command) in the output buffer. After that, the main control CPU 40a normally ends the symbol start process.

  When the normal symbol start process ends, the main control CPU 40a performs a process different from the normal symbol start process to execute the normal game. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the normal game is started. The main control CPU 40a clocks the variation time associated with the variation pattern related to the normal game determined in the normal symbol start processing. Then, the main control CPU 40a, when the variation time associated with the variation pattern related to the normal game determined in the normal symbol start processing has elapsed, the normal symbol determined in the normal symbol start processing is displayed so as to be fixedly stopped and displayed. The display panel 22 is controlled. Further, the main control CPU 40a, when the fluctuation time associated with the fluctuation pattern related to the normal game determined in the normal symbol start processing has elapsed, control information for instructing the end of the normal game (hereinafter referred to as a normal end designation command). ) Is generated and stored in the output buffer.

Next, the normal hit process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
After the end of the normal hit normal game, the main control CPU 40a performs a normal hit process. In the normal hit process, the main control CPU 40a starts the control for causing the normal hit game depending on whether it is in the high base state or the low base state. The main control CPU 40a causes the normal hit by performing the normal hit process. In this way, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the normal hit game is generated after the normal hit is won. In addition, generating a normal hit game is equivalent to giving a normal hit game. In the normal hit process, when in the high base state, the main control CPU 40a controls the first actuator A1 so that the second starting port 13 is opened in the opening state in the high base state. Further, in the low base state, the main control CPU 40a controls the first actuator A1 so that the second starting opening 13 is opened in the open state in the low base state.

Next, processing relating to the game state performed by the sub control CPU 41a will be described.

The information that can specify the gaming state stored in the sub-control RAM 41c includes information that can specify which of the low-probability state and the high-probability state (hereinafter referred to as the sub-probability state flag). The information that can specify the game state stored in the sub-control RAM 41c includes information that can specify which of the high base state and the low base state (hereinafter, referred to as an auxiliary base state flag). When the low-probability state command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a sets a value capable of specifying the low-probability state in the secondary probability state flag. When the high-probability state command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a sets a value capable of specifying the high-probability state in the secondary probability state flag. When the low base state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a sets a value capable of specifying the low base state in the sub base state flag. When the high base state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a sets a value capable of specifying the high base state in the sub base state flag.

Next, a process related to a hit effect performed by the sub control CPU 41a will be described.

Specifically, when the opening command is input, the sub control CPU 41a controls at least one of the decoration lamp La, the speaker Sp, and the effect display device 11 so that the opening effect is executed. When the sub-control CPU 41a inputs a round command, the sub-control CPU 41a controls at least one of the decoration lamp La, the speaker Sp, and the effect display device 11 so that the round effect is executed. When the ending command is input, the sub control CPU 41a controls at least one of the decoration lamp La, the speaker Sp, and the effect display device 11 so that the ending effect is executed. Similarly, the sub-control CPU 41a controls at least one of the decorative lamp La, the speaker Sp, and the effect display device 11 so that the small hit effect is executed during the small hit game.

  In the following description, among the variation pattern designation commands stored in the output buffer in the second special symbol start process, the variation pattern designation commands “4B01H” to “4B05H” for designating the variation pattern are referred to as “second variation pattern designation”. Sometimes called "command". Further, among the variation pattern designation commands stored in the output buffer in the second special symbol start processing, the variation pattern designation commands “4B06H” to “4B0AH” for designating the small hit variation pattern, “the second small hit variation pattern designation command There is a case. Further, among the variation pattern designation commands stored in the output buffer in the second special symbol start process, variation pattern designation commands “4B0BH” to “4B0FH” for designating the jackpot variation pattern are referred to as “second jackpot variation pattern designation commands”. There are cases. Further, in the following description, the second out-of-range variation pattern designation command, the second small hit variation pattern designation command, and the second large hit variation pattern designation command may be collectively referred to as a “second variation pattern designation command”.

  As shown in FIGS. 4C and 4D, the first variation pattern designation command and the second variation pattern designation command are different in the higher order commands constituting the variation pattern designation command. Therefore, it is possible to specify the execution of one of the first special game and the second special game from the higher-order commands that form the variation pattern designation command. That is, it is understood that the contents that can be specified from the variation pattern specification command include the special game specification contents. Also, the combination of the upper command and the lower command that make up the variation pattern designation command differs depending on the type of variation pattern. Therefore, the fluctuation pattern can be specified from the upper command and the lower command that form the fluctuation pattern designation command. That is, the contents that can be specified from the fluctuation pattern designation command include the contents that can specify the type of fluctuation pattern. As described above, the types of variation patterns include the big hit variation pattern, the small hit variation pattern, and the out-of-range variation pattern. Therefore, by specifying the type of the variation pattern, it is possible to specify whether it is a big hit, a small hit, or a loss, that is, the lottery result of the winning lottery. That is, the lottery result of the winning lottery can be specified from the variation pattern designation command. That is, it is understood that the content that can be specified from the variation pattern specification command includes the lottery specification content.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, it is possible to specify the execution of either one of the first special game and the second special game from the control information of both the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command. That is, it can be seen that the content identifiable from the symbol designating command and the content identifiable from the variation pattern designating command include the special game specific content in common. In the pachinko gaming machine 10, the lottery result of the winning lottery can be specified from both the control information of the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command. That is, it is understood that the content identifiable from the symbol designating command and the content identifiable from the variation pattern designating command include the lottery specific content in common.

  From the symbol designating command, the type of special symbol can be specified, while from the variation pattern designating command, the type of special symbol cannot be specified. Note that, for example, when providing a variation pattern that is determined only when a particular special symbol is determined, indirectly identifying that a particular special symbol is determined by identifying the variation pattern However, it is not possible to directly specify the type of special symbol from the variation pattern designation command. Further, the type of the variation pattern can be specified from the variation pattern designation command, while the type of the variation pattern cannot be specified from the symbol designation command. Note that, for example, in the case of configuring such that a specific variation pattern is determined when a specific special symbol is determined, that a specific variation pattern is determined to identify the specific symbol. Can be indirectly specified, but the type of variation pattern cannot be specified directly from the symbol designating command.

  Thus, the type of special symbol is the content that can be specified from the symbol designating command of the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command. On the other hand, the type of variation pattern is a content that can be identified from the variation pattern designation command of the symbol designation command and the variation pattern designation command. In the present embodiment, the variation pattern designation command corresponds to the first control information, and the symbol designation command corresponds to the second control information. The variation pattern designation command in this embodiment corresponds to specific control information. Then, in the present embodiment, the special game specific content and the lottery specific content are content that can be commonly specified from the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command, and commonly from the first control information and the second control information. It corresponds to the identifiable common content. As described above, in the present embodiment, the common content that can be specified from the first control information and the second control information can specify the execution of one of the first special symbol variation game and the second special symbol variation game. Content (special game specific content) and content capable of specifying the lottery result of the winning lottery (lottery specific content). In the following description, the common content that can be specified from the variation pattern specification command means the special game specific content and the lottery specific content that can be identified from the variation pattern specification command. Similarly, in the following description, the common content that can be specified from the symbol designating command means the special game specific content and the lottery specific content that can be specified from the variation pattern designating command. In addition, in the present embodiment, the “specific symbol type and identifiable content” and the “variable pattern type identifiable content” are the content identifiable from one of the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command. And corresponds to non-common contents that can be specified from one of the first control information and the second control information.

Next, the end designation command in this embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 4E, when the special game ends, the main control CPU 40a generates an end designation command whose upper command is "A0H". Specifically, when the first special game ends, the main control CPU 40a generates an end designation command in which the upper command is "A0H" and the lower command is "01H". On the other hand, when the second special game ends, the main control CPU 40a generates an end designation command in which the upper command is "A0H" and the lower command is "02H". In the following description, the end designation command “A001H” generated when the first special game ends is referred to as a first end designation command, and the end designation command “A002H” generated when the second special game ends. May be referred to as a second end designation command.

  The first end designation command and the second end designation command are different in the lower order commands constituting the end designation command. Therefore, the execution of one of the first special game and the second special game can be specified from the lower-order commands constituting the end designation command. That is, it can be seen that the contents that can be specified from the end specifying command include the special game specifying contents. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, it is possible to specify the execution of one of the first special game and the second special game from the end designation command, similarly to the symbol designation command and the variation pattern designation command. . That is, it can be seen that the content identifiable from the end designation command includes the special game specific content in common with the content identifiable from the symbol designation command and the content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command. As described above, the end designation command corresponding to the third control information in the present embodiment includes at least a part of the common contents.

  Further, of the control information generated in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the symbol designation command and the variation pattern designation command are generated when the special game is started. Therefore, in the present embodiment, at least one of the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command corresponds to the start time control information generated with the start of the special symbol variation game. The end designation command of the control information generated in the pachinko gaming machine 10 is generated when the special game ends. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the end designation command corresponds to the end time control information generated as the special symbol variation game ends. Further, in the present embodiment, the end designation command corresponds to non-specific control information. Further, in the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a generates control information, so that the function as the control information generating unit is realized.

  When the symbol designating command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a stores information based on a special symbol identifiable from the symbol designating command (hereinafter, referred to as secondary special symbol information) in the sub-control RAM 41c. The sub special symbol information may be the inputted symbol designating command itself, or may be information obtained by processing the symbol designating command by a predetermined method. When the variation pattern designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a stores information based on the variation pattern that can be identified from the variation pattern designation command (hereinafter referred to as sub variation pattern information) in the sub control RAM 41c. The secondary variation pattern information may be the input variation pattern designation command itself or information obtained by processing the variation pattern designation command by a predetermined method.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 10, the sub-control CPU 41a is input with the variation pattern designation command after the symbol designation command is input. Then, when the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command are input, the sub-control CPU 41a performs the matching determination. In addition, when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the variation pattern designation command without inputting the symbol designation command, it performs the matching determination. When the variation pattern designation command is input without inputting the symbol designation command, it corresponds to the case where the symbol designation command is missing from the symbol designation command and the variation pattern designation command. In addition, the sub-control CPU 41a performs the matching determination if the variation pattern designation command is not input even if a predetermined time has elapsed after the symbol designation command was input. The case where the variation pattern designation command is not input even if a predetermined time has elapsed after the symbol designation command is input corresponds to the case where the variation pattern designation command is missing from the symbol designation command and the variation pattern designation command.

  In the matching determination, the sub-control CPU 41a determines whether the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command match. Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a determines whether the special game specifying content specified by the variation pattern specifying command and the special game specifying content specified by the symbol specifying command match. In addition, the sub-control CPU 41a determines whether the lottery specific content specified by the variation pattern designating command and the lottery specific content specified by the symbol designating command match. The matching determination in the present embodiment corresponds to a matching determination as to whether the common content that can be specified and moved from the first control information matches the common content that can be specified from the second control information. Further, since the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command are generated with the start of the special game, it is understood that the matching determination corresponding to the matching determination is performed with the start of the special symbol variation game. .

  The determination result of the matching determination includes a determination result of “normal” and a determination result of “abnormal”. In the present embodiment, if the special game specific content specified from the variation pattern specification command and the special game specific content identified from the symbol specification command do not match, the lottery specific content specified from the variation pattern specification command and the pattern designation command Regardless of the result, the judgment result of the matching judgment is “abnormal”. Further, in the present embodiment, when the lottery specific content specified by the variation pattern designating command and the lottery specific content identified by the symbol designating command do not match, the special game specific content identified by the variation pattern designating command and the pattern designating command. Regardless of, the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”. Then, in the present embodiment, if the special game specific contents specified by the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command match, and the lottery specific contents specified by the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command match, the match The determination result of the determination is “normal”. Further, in the present embodiment, if one of the symbol designating command and the variation pattern designating command is missing, the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”. Incidentally, in the present embodiment, when neither the symbol designating command nor the variation pattern designating command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a does not perform the matching determination, and therefore the determination result itself of the matching determination is not derived.

  In the present embodiment, when the determination result of the matching determination is “normal”, the first deviation pattern designating command and the first deviation pattern designating command are input, and the first small hit variation pattern designating command. There is a case where the first small hit symbol designating command is input. Further, in the present embodiment, when the determination result of the matching determination is "normal", when the first big hit variation pattern designation command and the first big hit symbol designation command are input, and the second deviation variation pattern designation command There is a case where the second deviating symbol designating command is input. Further, in the present embodiment, when the determination result of the matching determination is "normal", when the second small hitting variation pattern designation command and the second small hitting symbol designating command are input, and the second big hit variation pattern designation There are cases where the command and the second big hit symbol designating command are input.

  When the sub-control CPU 41a performs the matching determination, the sub-control RAM 41c stores information capable of specifying the determination result of the matching determination (hereinafter referred to as the matching determination result information) in the sub-control RAM 41c. As described above, the matching determination is performed with the start of the special game, and thus the matching determination result information corresponds to the information stored with the start of the special game. And the matching determination result information in this embodiment is equivalent to the determination information which can specify the determination result of the matching determination performed with the start of the special symbol variation game.

  Further, when the variation pattern designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a stores information (hereinafter referred to as game execution information) that can identify the special game being executed in the sub control RAM 41c. Specifically, when the first variation pattern designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a stores game execution information that can specify that the first special game is being executed in the sub control RAM 41c. On the other hand, when the second variation pattern designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a stores game execution information that can specify that the second special game is being executed in the sub control RAM 41c. As described above, it can be seen that the contents that can be specified from the game execution information include the special game specifying contents. Further, since the game execution information is information stored based on the variation pattern designation command, the special game specification content that can be identified from the game execution information is a special game that can be identified from the variation pattern designation command (specific control information). It can also be said to be game specific content.

Here, the processing relating to the execution of the effect game will be described.
First, the process relating to the execution of the effect game when the determination result of the matching determination is “normal” will be described. Note that the process performed when the determination result of the matching determination is “normal” is not intended to be performed only on the premise that the determination result of the matching determination is “normal”. It is intended to include processing performed in a situation where the determination result of the matching determination is “normal” as a combination of the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command regardless of the result. Therefore, in the present specification, "when the judgment result of the matching judgment is" normal "" is not limited to the case where the judgment result of the matching judgment is "normal", and the input control information is the judgment of the matching judgment. It refers to the situation where the result is “normal”.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, when the determination result of the matching determination is “normal”, the effect game is executed. Based on the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command, the sub-control CPU 41a finally determines the symbol combination by the effect symbol to be finally stopped and displayed in the effect game. Specifically, when the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol designating command is a big hit symbol, the sub-control CPU 41a determines a big hit symbol combination. If the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol designation command is a small hit symbol, the sub-control CPU 41a determines a symbol combination for the small hit. If the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol designating command is a detached symbol, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the symbol combination of the detached symbol. When performing the reach effect because the reach condition is satisfied, the sub-control CPU 41a may determine an outlying symbol combination including the reach. In the present embodiment, the reach condition is satisfied when the out-of-shift variation pattern with out-of-reach reach is designated.

  When the variation pattern designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the effect symbol is variably displayed. That is, the sub control CPU 41a starts the execution of the effect game. Then, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so as to temporarily stop and display the symbol combination based on the determined effect symbol at a predetermined timing. After that, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the symbol combination based on the effect symbols is fixedly stopped and displayed in response to the input of the end designation command. Incidentally, when executing the reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the effect display device 11 to temporarily stop and display the effect symbols on the left column and the right column so that the reach is formed at a predetermined timing during the special game. Control. When executing the super reach effect as the reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the normal reach effect is executed after the reach is formed and then the super reach effect is executed.

  Next, a process related to execution of the effect game when the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal” will be described. Note that the processing performed when the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal” is not intended to be performed only on the premise that the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”. It is intended to include processing performed in a situation where the determination result of the matching determination is "abnormal" as a combination of the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command regardless of the result. Therefore, in the present specification, “when the determination result of the matching determination is“ abnormal ”” is not limited to the case where the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, and the input control information is the determination of the matching determination. It refers to the case where the result is "abnormal".

  As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, when the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, the effect game may be executed or the effect game may not be executed. Specifically, when the variation pattern designation command is input, the effect game is executed even when the symbol designation command is not input. On the other hand, when the variation pattern designation command is not input, the effect game is not executed even if the symbol designation command is input (indicated as “non-execution” in FIGS. 5 to 7). As described above, when the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, the effect game is executed when the variation pattern designation command is input, while the effect game is not executed when the variation pattern designation command is missing.

  When the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, and when the variation pattern designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a leaves as a symbol combination by the effect symbol finally fixedly stopped and displayed in the effect game. Determine the symbol combination. At this time, even if the variation pattern that can be specified from the input variation pattern designation command is a big hit variation pattern, or if the special symbol that can be identified from the input symbol designation command is a big hit symbol, the sub-control CPU 41a produces In the game, a deviating symbol combination is determined as the symbol combination based on the effect symbols to be finally stopped and displayed.

  Even when the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, when the variation pattern designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the effect symbols are variably displayed. That is, the sub control CPU 41a starts the execution of the effect game. After that, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the symbol combination based on the effect symbols is fixedly stopped and displayed in response to the input of the end designation command. Incidentally, even when a variation pattern capable of specifying that the reach effect is to be executed is designated in the inputted variation pattern designation command, if the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, the sub-control CPU 41a Do not execute the performance.

Next, a process relating to the execution of the specific game will be described.
The sub-control CPU 41a determines the display mode of the specific game based on the determination result of the matching determination. Specifically, when the first variation pattern designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the display mode of the first specific game (display mode of the first specific symbol display section 33a). On the other hand, when the second variation pattern designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a determines the display mode of the second specific game (the display mode of the second specific symbol display section 33b).

  The display modes of the specific game include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. The normal display mode in the present embodiment is a display mode in which the light emitting elements forming the specific symbol display sections 33a and 33b blink at a low speed (normal speed). The high-speed display mode in this embodiment is a display mode in which the light-emitting bodies forming the specific symbol display sections 33a and 33b flash at high speed. The non-change display mode in the present embodiment is a display mode in which the light emission mode of the light-emitting bodies forming the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is not changed.

  As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, when the determination result of the matching determination is “normal”, the sub control CPU 41a determines the normal display mode as the display mode of the specific game. For example, when the first deviation pattern designating command is input and when the first deviation designating command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the normal display mode as the display mode of the first specific game. In addition, for example, when the second jackpot variation pattern designation command is input and when the second jackpot symbol designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the normal display mode as the display mode of the second specific game.

  When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, and the non-matching relationship is the first relationship, the sub-control CPU 41a displays the specific game. The high-speed display mode is determined as the mode. Specifically, while the special game specific content specified by the variation pattern designating command and the pattern designating command match, the lottery specific content identified by the variation pattern designating command and the pattern designating command do not match, and the determination of the matching determination When the result is "abnormal", the sub-control CPU 41a determines the high-speed display mode as the display mode of the specific game. For example, when the first deviation pattern designating command is input and the first small hit symbol designating command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the high-speed display mode as the display mode of the first specific game. In addition, for example, when the second big hit variation pattern designation command is input, and when the second off-axis symbol designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the high-speed display mode as the display mode of the second specific game. As described above, the first relationship in the present embodiment is a relationship in which the special game specific contents match but the lottery specific contents do not match in the variation pattern designating command as the first control information and the symbol designating command as the second control information. Is.

  When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, and the non-matching relationship is the second relationship, the sub-control CPU 41a displays the specific game. The non-change display mode is determined as the mode. Specifically, when the contents of the special game specified by the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command do not match and the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, the sub-control CPU 41a determines that the display mode of the specific game is not The change display mode is determined. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-change display mode as the display mode of the specific game regardless of whether the lottery specific contents specified from the variation pattern specifying command and the symbol specifying command match or do not match. To do. For example, when the first deviation pattern designating command is input and the second deviation pattern designating command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-change display mode as the display mode of the first specific game. Further, for example, when the second small hit variation pattern designation command is input, and when the first big hit symbol designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-change display aspect as the display aspect of the second specific game. To do. As described above, the second relationship in the present embodiment is that at least the special game specific content is selected from the special game specific content and the lottery specific content in the variation pattern designating command as the first control information and the symbol designating command as the second control information. The relationships do not match.

  The second relationship includes a relationship (specific relationship) in which only the special game specific content does not match among the special game specific content and the lottery specific content, and a relationship in which both the special game specific content and the lottery specific content do not match (non-specific Relationship). In the present embodiment, when the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, and the non-matching relationship is the second relationship, the second relationship Above all, the display mode of the specific game is the same when it is in the specific relationship and when it is in the non-specific relationship.

  When the symbol designating command is missing from the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-changing display manner as the display manner of the specific game. That is, when the symbol designation command is missing from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command, and the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-variation display mode as the display mode of the specific game. .. For example, when the first jackpot variation pattern designation command is input but the symbol designation command is not input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-change display mode as the display mode of the first specific game. Further, for example, when the second small hit variation pattern designating command is input but the symbol designating command is not input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the non-change display form as the display form of the second specific game.

  When the variation pattern designation command is not input, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the display mode of the first specific game and the display mode of the second specific game based on the determination result of the matching determination. That is, when the variation pattern designation command is missing from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the display mode of the first specific game and the display mode of the second specific game.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10, when the variation pattern designation command is missing out of the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command and the determination result of the matching determination is “abnormal”, the sub-control CPU 41a determines The non-change display mode is determined as the display mode.

  As described above, in both of the case where the symbol designating command among the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command is missing, and the case where the variation pattern designating command is missing among the variation pattern designating command and the pattern designating command, both are specified. The display mode of the game is a non-change display mode. That is, in the present embodiment, in the case where the symbol designating command among the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command is missing, and in the case where the variation pattern designating command among the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command is missing, the specific game Are displayed in the same manner.

  When the display mode of the first specific game is determined, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the first specific symbol display section 33a, and controls the first specific game in the determined display mode. Specifically, when the normal display mode is determined as the display mode of the first specific game, the sub-control CPU 41a displays the first specific symbol so that the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display section 33a blinks at a low speed. The part 33a is controlled. Further, when the high-speed display mode is determined as the display mode of the first specific game, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the first specific symbol display section 33a to flash the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display section 33a at high speed. To control. In addition, when the non-change display mode is determined as the display mode of the first specific game, the sub-control CPU 41a does not change the lighting or extinguishing mode of the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a. Therefore, if the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a is lit, the light-emitting body continues to light up, and if the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a is off, the light-emitting body concerned Keeps going out.

  Similarly, when the display mode of the second specific game is determined, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the second specific symbol display portion 33b to control the second specific game in the determined display mode. Specifically, when the normal display mode is determined as the display mode of the second specific game, the sub-control CPU 41a displays the second specific symbol so that the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display unit 33b blinks at a low speed. The part 33b is controlled. In addition, when the high-speed display mode is determined as the display mode of the second specific game, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the second specific symbol display section 33b to flash the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display section 33b at high speed. To control. Further, when the non-change display mode is determined as the display mode of the second specific game, the sub-control CPU 41a does not change the lighting or extinguishing mode of the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b. Therefore, if the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b is lit, the light-emitting body continues to light up, and if the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b is off, the light-emitting body concerned Keeps going out. In the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the specific symbol display sections 33a and 33b, thereby realizing a function as a specific game control means for controlling the specific game execution section.

  The display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game are determined and controlled based on the end designation command. In the present embodiment, the display content of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game mainly means the specific symbol that is confirmed and stopped, but the display content of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is This is intended to include the display content of the display unit when it does not change.

  When the end designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a makes a stop time determination. In the present embodiment, the stop time determination is performed based on a combination of a plurality of information. The plurality of pieces of information include information stored in the sub-control RAM 41c and an end designation command. The information stored in the sub-control RAM 41c here is information based on control information generated when the special symbol variation game is started, such as a variation pattern designation command and a symbol designation command, and is the present embodiment. It is the “matching determination result information and game execution information” corresponding to the specific information in the form. Then, in the stop time determination, it is determined whether the combination of the end designation command and the specific information “game execution information, matching determination result information” based on the start time control information is a normal combination or an abnormal combination. It In the present embodiment, the sub-control RAM 41c stores the specific information, so that the function as the information storage unit is realized.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the determination result of the stop time determination includes a determination result of “normal” and a determination result of “abnormal”. In the present embodiment, the case where the determination result of the stop determination is “normal” corresponds to that the combination of the end designation command, the game execution information, and the match determination result information is determined to be a normal combination. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the case where the determination result of the stop determination is “abnormal” corresponds to the case where the combination of the end designation command, the game execution information, and the match determination result information is determined to be an abnormal combination. To do.

  In the present embodiment, when it is possible to specify that the judgment result of the matching judgment is “abnormal” from the matching judgment result information, the special game specifying contents specified from the game execution information and the special game specifying contents specified from the end specifying command The determination result of the stop time determination is “abnormal” regardless of whether the values match or do not match. In this way, an abnormal combination of the combination of the end designation command and the specific information, for example, the special game specific content specified from the game execution information and the special game specific content specified from the end designation command match, There is a combination that can specify that the judgment result of the matching judgment is "abnormal" from the matching judgment information. In the present embodiment, although the special game specific content specified from the game execution information and the special game specific content specified from the end designation command match, the matching determination information indicates that the determination result of the alignment determination is “abnormal”. The combination that can be identified corresponds to the first abnormal combination. Further, in the present embodiment, although the special game specifying content specified by the game execution information and the special game specifying content specified by the end designation command match, the judgment result of the matching judgment is “abnormal” from the matching judgment information. A combination that can specify this is equivalent to a special abnormal combination.

  In addition, in the present embodiment, even when the judgment result of the matching judgment from the matching judgment result information is “normal”, the special game specification content specified from the game execution information and the special game specified from the end specification command are executed. When the specific contents do not match, the determination result of the determination during stop is "abnormal". As described above, an abnormal combination of the combination of the end designation command and the specific information includes, for example, a combination in which the special game specific content specified from the game execution information does not match the special game specific content specified from the end designation command. is there. In the present embodiment, a combination in which the special game specifying content specified by the game execution information does not match the special game specifying content specified by the end designation command corresponds to the second abnormal combination. The combination of the special game specific content specified from the game execution information and the special game specific content specified from the end specification command does not match the end specific command including the content that can specify the second special game, and the first special content. There is a combination with the game execution information including the contents that can specify the special game. In addition, in a combination in which the special game specifying content specified from the game execution information does not match the special game specifying content specified from the end specifying command, the end specifying command including the content capable of specifying the first special game and the second specifying There is a combination with the game execution information including the contents that can specify the special game. In the present embodiment, the combination of the end designation command including the content capable of specifying the second special game and the game execution information including the content capable of specifying the first special game corresponds to the specific abnormal combination. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the combination of the end designation command including the content capable of specifying the first special game and the game execution information including the content capable of specifying the second special game corresponds to the non-specific abnormal combination. .

  In the present embodiment, when it is possible to identify that the determination result of the alignment determination is “normal” from the alignment determination result information, the identification is performed from the special game being executed and the end designation command that can be identified from the game execution information. When the possible special games in execution match, the determination result of the stop time determination is “normal”. In the present embodiment, when the determination result of the stop determination is "normal", the sub-control RAM 41c stores the matching determination result information that can specify that the determination result of the matching determination is "normal". In some cases, it may be possible to specify that the first special game is being executed from both the game execution information and the end designation command. Further, in the present embodiment, when the determination result of the stop determination is “normal”, the sub-control RAM 41c stores the matching determination result information that can specify that the determination result of the matching determination is “normal”. In some cases, it is possible to specify that the second special game is being executed from both the game execution information and the end designation command.

  Then, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b based on the combination of the information stored in the sub-control RAM 41c and the end designation command. For example, if the special game specific content identifiable from the game execution information and the special game specific content identifiable from the end designation command match, the sub-control CPU 41a, one specific symbol of the first specific symbol and the second specific symbol Is fixedly displayed and the other specific symbol is not changed (in FIG. 11, it is shown as “no change”). Specifically, when identifying the first special game from both the game execution information and the end designation command, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the first specific symbol display section 33a to display the first specific symbol in a fixed stop state. When specifying the second special game from both the game execution information and the end specifying command, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the second specific symbol display section 33b to display the first specific symbol in a fixed stop state. On the other hand, when the special game specific content identifiable from the game execution information and the special game specific content identifiable from the end designation command do not match, the sub-control CPU 41a sets both the specific symbols of the first specific symbol and the second specific symbol. Confirm stop display.

The specific display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b will be described below.
As shown in FIG. 11, it is possible to specify that the first special game is being executed from the game execution information, and it is possible to specify that the determination result of the alignment determination is “normal” from the alignment determination result information. When the command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the first specific symbol display portion 33a so that the specific symbol of the designated type is fixedly stopped and displayed. Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a, when the big hit symbol or the small hit symbol can be specified from the symbol designation command, the hit specific symbol, and when the symbol deviating from the symbol designation command can be specified, the deviating specific symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed. So that the first specific symbol display portion 33a is controlled. At this time, the display content of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change. In the present specification, the fixed stop display of the specific symbol corresponding to the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol designating command corresponds to the fixed stop display of the specific symbol of the designated type. Similarly, it is possible to specify that the second special game is being executed from the game execution information, it is possible to specify that the determination result of the alignment determination is “normal” from the alignment determination result information, and the second end designation command is input In this case, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the second specific symbol display portion 33b so that the specific symbol of the designated type is fixedly stopped and displayed. At this time, the display content of the first specific symbol display portion 33a does not change.

  When the first special game is being executed can be identified from the game execution information, the determination result of the alignment determination can be identified as “abnormal” from the alignment determination result information, and the first end designation command is input. The sub-control CPU 41a controls the first specific symbol display portion 33a so that the off-specific symbol is displayed in a fixed stop. At this time, the display content of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change. Similarly, it is possible to specify that the second special game is being executed from the game execution information, it is possible to specify that the determination result of the alignment determination is “abnormal” from the alignment determination result information, and the second end designation command is input. In this case, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the second specific symbol display portion 33b so that the out-of-specific symbol is determined and stopped and displayed. At this time, the display content of the first specific symbol display portion 33a does not change. In the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is the first abnormal combination, the display content of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is “corresponding to the special game identified from the game execution information and the end designation command”. The specific symbol display is fixedly stopped and displayed on the specific symbol display unit, and the display content of the other specific symbol display unit does not change. That is, in the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a special abnormal combination, the display content of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is “a special game identified from the game execution information and the end designation command. The shifted specific symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed on the corresponding specific symbol display portion, and the display content of the other specific symbol display portion does not change.

  It should be noted that the definite specific symbol is fixedly displayed on the specific symbol display unit, that is, the display content of the specific symbol display unit as the specific game display unit indicates that the winning lottery has not been won. Is equivalent to On the other hand, the fact that the specific symbol of the hit is fixedly stopped and displayed on the specific symbol display unit means that the display content of the specific symbol display unit as the specific game display unit is the display content indicating that the winning has been won in the winning lottery. Equivalent to that.

  In addition, it is possible to specify that the first special game is being executed from the game execution information, and when the second end designating command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the deviating specific symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed. Both the specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b are controlled. At this time, regardless of whether the determination result of the matching determination that can be specified from the matching determination result information is “normal” or “abnormal”, in both the first specific symbol display unit 33a and the second specific symbol display unit 33b The specific symbol of the deviation is confirmed and stopped. Thus, in the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a specific abnormal combination, the display content of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is “first specific symbol display portion 33a and second specific symbol”. The display content of the specific symbol which is out of order on any of the display portions 33b is displayed as the fixed stop display ”.

  Similarly, it is possible to specify that the second special game is being executed from the game execution information, and when the first end designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the off-specification symbols to be fixedly stopped and displayed, Both 1 specific symbol display section 33a and 2nd specific symbol display section 33b are controlled. At this time, regardless of whether the determination result of the matching determination that can be specified from the matching determination result information is “normal” or “abnormal”, in both the first specific symbol display unit 33a and the second specific symbol display unit 33b The specific symbol of the deviation is confirmed and stopped. In this way, in the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a non-specific abnormal combination, the display content of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is “first specific symbol display portion 33a and second specific symbol”. The display content in which the specific symbol which is out of order in any of the symbol display portions 33b is fixedly stopped is displayed. That is, in the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designating command and the specific information is the specific abnormal combination and the non-specific abnormal combination, the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game (specific game It can be seen that the display contents of the execution unit) are the same.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is the second abnormal combination, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b are “first specific symbol display portion 33a and second The display content of the specific symbol which is out of the specific symbol display portion 33b is fixedly stopped and displayed. That is, in the present embodiment, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is the first abnormal combination, the combination is the second abnormal combination, and the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game (specific game execution Display contents of part) are different.

  Incidentally, when the game execution information is not stored, the sub-control CPU 41a controls both the first specific symbol display section 33a and the second specific symbol display section 33b so that the out-of-specific symbol is definitely stopped and displayed. .. At this time, no matter which of the first end designation command and the second end designation command is input, the off-specific symbols are confirmed in both the first specific symbol display part 33a and the second specific symbol display part 33b. It will be stopped. By the way, since the case where the game execution information is not stored means that the variation pattern designation command is missing, the match determination result information that can specify that the match determination result is “normal” is the sub-control. It has never been stored in the RAM 41c.

Next, a process related to the first specific suspension display unit 33c and a process related to the second specific suspension display unit 33d performed by the sub-control CPU 41a will be described.
When the first hold number command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the first specific hold display unit 33c so that the display content indicates the first special hold number that can be specified from the first hold number command. Similarly, when the second hold number command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the second specific hold display unit 33d to display the second special hold number that can be specified from the second hold number command. Control.

Next, the process related to the normal auxiliary symbol display unit 33e and the process related to the normal auxiliary hold display unit 33f performed by the sub control CPU 41a will be described.
When the normal variation pattern designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the normal auxiliary symbol display portion 33e so that the normal auxiliary game is executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the normal auxiliary symbol display unit 33e so that the light-emitting body forming the normal auxiliary symbol display unit 33e emits light in a predetermined variable display mode and the execution of the normal auxiliary game is started. .. Further, when the hold end designation command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the normal auxiliary symbol display portion 33e so that the normal auxiliary symbol based on the normal symbol designated by the normal symbol designation command is fixedly stopped and displayed. Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a, when the normal hit design can be specified by the normal design designation command, the normal auxiliary design of the normal hit, the normal design design command is normally disengaged when the design can be specified normally. The auxiliary symbol is controlled so that the fixed stop display is normally performed, and the auxiliary symbol display portion 33e is controlled. When the normal hold number command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the normal auxiliary hold display unit 33f so that the display content indicates the normal hold number that can be specified from the normal hold number command.

Here, the relationship between the variation pattern and the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game will be described with reference to FIG.
Display modes that can be the display modes of the specific game when any of the first fluctuation patterns Ha11 to Ha15 are determined include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. Further, as in the case where any one of the first deviation variation patterns Ha11 to Ha15 is determined, the specific game of the time when any one of the first small hit variation patterns Hb11 to Hb15 is determined The display modes that can be the display modes include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. Further, as in the case where any one of the first deviation variation patterns Ha11 to Ha15 is determined, the display of the specific game when any one of the first jackpot variation patterns Hc11 to Hc15 is determined. The display modes that can be the modes include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. In this way, even if any of the fluctuation patterns Ha11 to Ha15, Hb11 to Hb15, Hc11 to Hc15 which are classified into the first special symbol fluctuation pattern is determined, the display mode of the specific game can be obtained. It is common that the display modes include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. Therefore, when any one of the variation patterns classified as the first special symbol variation pattern is the first variation pattern and the other variation patterns are the second variation patterns, when the first variation pattern is determined. The display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game is common to the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined. In the present embodiment, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first variation pattern is determined and the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined are There are multiple each.

  Similarly, there are a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode as the display modes that can be the display modes of the specific game when any one of the second fluctuation patterns Ha21 to Ha25 is determined. Further, as in the case where any one of the second deviation variation patterns Ha21 to Ha25 is determined, the specific game of the time when any one of the second small hit variation patterns Hb21 to Hb25 is determined The display modes that can be the display modes include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. Further, similar to the case where any one of the second deviation variation patterns Ha21 to Ha25 is determined, the display of the specific game when any one of the second jackpot variation patterns Hc21 to Hc25 is determined. The display modes that can be the modes include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. In this way, even if any of the variation patterns Ha21 to Ha25, Hb21 to Hb25, Hc21 to Hc25 that are classified into the second special symbol variation pattern is determined, it can be the display mode of the specific game. It is common that the display modes include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. Therefore, when any one of the variation patterns classified into the second special symbol variation pattern is the first variation pattern and the other variation patterns are the second variation patterns, when the first variation pattern is determined. The display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game is common to the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined. In the present embodiment, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first variation pattern is determined and the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined are There are multiple each.

  As described above, even when any of the variation patterns Ha11 to Ha15, Ha21 to Ha25, Hb11 to Hb15, Hb21 to Hb25, Hc11 to Hc15, Hc21 to Hc25 is determined, the specific game is determined. It is common that the display modes that can be the display modes of (1) include a normal display mode, a high-speed display mode, and a non-change display mode. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when one of the plurality of variation patterns is the first variation pattern and the other variation patterns are the second variation patterns, the specific game when the first variation pattern is determined The display mode that can be the display mode of is common to the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined. In the present embodiment, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first variation pattern is determined and the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined are There are multiple each.

Here, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b in the pachinko gaming machine 10 in the present embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 13, before the start of the special game, it is assumed that both the light emitters forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the light emitters forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b are turned off. .. At this time, when the first jackpot variation pattern designation command and the first jackpot symbol designation command are input, the determination result of the alignment determination performed by the sub-control CPU 41a becomes "normal", and the determination result of the alignment determination is "normal". The matching determination result information that can specify that is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c. In addition, game execution information that can specify the first special game is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c based on the input of the first jackpot variation pattern designation command. Further, by inputting the first big hit variation pattern designation command and the first big hit symbol designation command, the display mode of the first specific game becomes a normal display mode, and the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display section 33a is at a low speed. Blinks (slow blink). At this time, the light-emitting body that constitutes the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains turned off, as before the start of the special game. After that, when the first end designating command is input, the specific symbol for hitting is fixedly stopped and displayed on the first specific symbol display portion 33a, and the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a is turned on. At this time, the display content of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change, and the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains off, as before the start of the special game.

  As shown in FIG. 14 (a), before the start of the special game, the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a is turned off, and the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b is turned on. It is assumed that At this time, it is assumed that the first big hit variation pattern designating command and the first outlier design designating command are input. At this time, although the special game specific content specified by the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command match, the lottery specific content does not match, so the determination result of the alignment determination performed by the sub-control CPU 41a is "abnormal", and the matching is performed. Matching determination result information that can specify that the determination result of the determination is "abnormal" is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c. In addition, game execution information that can specify the first special game is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c based on the input of the first jackpot variation pattern designation command. Further, by inputting the first big hit variation pattern designation command and the first outlier symbol designation command, the display mode of the first specific game becomes a high-speed display mode, and the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display section 33a is at high speed. Blinks (fast blink). At this time, the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains lit, as before the start of the special game. After that, it is assumed that the second end designation command is input. In this case, since the special game specific content specified from the end designation command and the special game specific content specified from the game execution information do not match, both the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b are displaced. The specific symbol of is fixedly displayed. As a result, both the light-emitting body that constitutes the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the light-emitting body that constitutes the second specific symbol display portion 33b are turned off.

  As shown in FIG. 14 (b), before the start of the special game, the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a is turned off, and the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b is turned on. It is assumed that At this time, it is assumed that the first jackpot variation pattern designation command and the second jackpot symbol designation command are input. At this time, although the lottery specific contents specified by the variation pattern specifying command and the symbol specifying command match, the special game specific contents do not match, so the judgment result of the matching judgment performed by the sub-control CPU 41a becomes "abnormal", and the matching Matching determination result information that can specify that the determination result of the determination is "abnormal" is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c. In addition, game execution information that can specify the first special game is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c based on the input of the first jackpot variation pattern designation command. Further, by inputting the first big hit variation pattern designation command and the second big hit symbol designation command, the display mode of the first specific game becomes a non-change display mode, and the light emission of the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display section 33a. The mode does not change and remains off. At this time, the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains lit, as before the start of the special game. After that, it is assumed that the first end designation command is input. In this case, since the special game specific content specified by the end designation command and the special game specific content specified by the game execution information match, the specific symbol displayed in the fixed stop display on the first specific symbol display portion 33a is controlled. On the other hand, the specific symbol of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change. Further, since the result of the matching determination is "abnormal", the specific symbol of the off is confirmed stop display in the first specific symbol display portion 33a, the light-emitting body constituting the first specific symbol display portion 33a is turned off. .. On the other hand, since the special symbol of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change, the light emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains lit.

  As shown in FIG. 14 (c), before the start of the special game, both the light emitters forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the light emitters forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b are turned off. I shall. At this time, although the first big hit variation pattern designation command is input, it is assumed that the symbol designation command is missing. In this way, since the symbol designating command is missing from the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command, the determination result of the alignment determination performed by the sub-control CPU 41a is "abnormal", and the determination result of the alignment determination is "abnormal". Matching determination result information that can specify that there is is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c. In addition, game execution information that can specify the first special game is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c based on the input of the first jackpot variation pattern designation command. Further, the symbol designating command is missing from the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command. The symbol designating command is missing from the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command, so that the display mode of the first specific game is a non-changing display mode. The light emitting mode of the light emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a does not change and remains turned off. At this time, the light-emitting body that constitutes the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains turned off, as before the start of the special game. After that, it is assumed that the first end designation command is input. In this case, since the special game specific content specified by the end designation command and the special game specific content specified by the game execution information match, the specific symbol displayed in the fixed stop display on the first specific symbol display portion 33a is controlled. On the other hand, the specific symbol of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change. Further, since the result of the matching determination is "abnormal", the specific symbol of the off is confirmed stop display in the first specific symbol display portion 33a, the light-emitting body constituting the first specific symbol display portion 33a is turned off. .. On the other hand, since the special symbol of the second specific symbol display portion 33b does not change, the light emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b remains turned off.

According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information) match, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command And when the common contents that can be specified from the symbol designating command do not match, the display mode of the specific symbol variation game (specific game) is different. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to specify whether the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command match. Further, even when the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, the non-matching relationship is the first relationship, the second relationship And the display mode of the specific game is different. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific game, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command match under any one of the first relationship and the second relationship. It becomes possible to specify whether or not there is any. Thus, from the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to specify that the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, and the first relationship and the second relationship. Since it is possible to specify which of the relationships the common contents do not match, it is possible to suppress the discomfort given to the player.

  (2) In the case where the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information) do not match, the non-matching relationship is the first. In the case of two relationships, the display mode of the specific game (specific symbol variation game) is the same when it is the specific relationship and when it is the non-specific relationship among the second relationships. Thus, in the case where the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match under the relationship of the second relationship, the specific relationship and the non-specific relationship among the second relationships In either case, by sharing the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to reduce the number of display modes of the specific game. By reducing the number of display modes of the specific game, it is possible to reduce the number of light-emitting bodies that form the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b, and it is possible to contribute to the cost reduction of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b. ..

  (3) The first relationship is a relationship in which the special game specific contents match but the lottery specific contents do not match, and the second relationship is a relationship in which at least the special game specific contents do not match among the special game specific contents and the lottery specific contents. And That is, the display mode of the specific symbol variation game (specific game) is different depending on whether the types of the special games (special symbol variation games) do not match or the types of the special games match. As a result, from the display mode of the specific game, the common content that can be specified from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the symbol designation command (second control information) is not consistent. It is possible to specify that “there is no match”, and thus it is possible to suppress the discomfort given to the player.

  (4) Separately from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the symbol designation command (second control information) generated with the start of the special game, generated with the end of the special game On the basis of the end designation command (third control information), the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b (specific game execution portion) at the end of the special game are determined. In this way, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b are controlled again based on the end designation command generated when the special game (special symbol variation game) ends, thereby displaying the specific symbol. It is possible to prevent the situation that can be identified from the display contents of the parts 33a and 33b from being different from the actual situation.

  (5) When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information) match, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command And when the common contents that can be specified from the symbol designating command do not match, the display mode of the specific symbol variation game (specific game) is different. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to specify whether the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command match. Furthermore, when the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, when the unmatched relationships are the specific relationship and the non-specific relationship, the specific game The display mode is the same. In this way, when the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, whether the unmatched relationship is a specific relationship or a non-specific relationship By making the display modes common, the number of display modes of the specific game can be reduced. In this way, it is specified from the display mode of the specific game that the common content that can be specified from the variation pattern designation command and the common content that can be specified from the symbol designation command do not match while reducing the types of display modes of the specific game. It is possible to suppress the discomfort given to the player.

  (6) The specific relationship is a relationship in which the special game specific contents do not match but the lottery specific contents match, and the non-specific relationship is a relationship in which neither the special game specific contents nor the lottery specific contents match. That is, if the special game specific contents do not match, the display mode of the specific game (specific symbol variation game) is the same regardless of whether the lottery specific contents match or not match. By the way, when the special game specific contents are different even if the lottery specific contents are the same, which of the first special game and the second special game is executed as the special game which is the lottery result that can be specified from the lottery specific contents. I can't specify what I am doing. Therefore, if the special game specific contents do not match, the display mode of the specific game is made the same regardless of whether the lottery specific contents match or not, thereby reducing the types of display modes of the specific game. At the same time, it is possible to suppress the discomfort by specifying that it is not specified which of the first special game and the second special game is being executed.

  (7) Even if the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common content identifiable from the second control information do not match, the non-matching relationship is a specific relationship or non-specific relationship. When the relationship is the relationship, the display mode of the specific game (specific symbol variation game) is different from that when the relationship is the special relationship. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific game, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command are either “specific relation or non-specific relation” or “special relation”. It is possible to specify whether or not they match with each other under, and it is possible to suppress discomfort.

  (8) When the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information) match, the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command And when the common contents that can be specified from the symbol designating command do not match, the display mode of the specific symbol variation game (specific game) is different. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to specify whether the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command match. In addition, the second variation pattern (for example, the first jackpot variation pattern Hc11) is determined as the display aspect that can be the display aspect of the specific game when the first variation pattern (for example, the first outlier variation pattern Ha11) is determined. This is common to the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the game is played. In this way, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first fluctuation pattern is determined and the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second fluctuation pattern is determined are made common. As a result, the number of display modes of the specific game can be reduced. In this way, while reducing the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to specify from the display mode of the specific game that the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match. Therefore, it is possible to suppress discomfort given to the player.

  (9) A display mode that can be a display mode of a specific game (specific symbol fluctuation game) when the first fluctuation pattern (for example, the first deviation fluctuation pattern Ha11) is determined, and the second fluctuation pattern (for example, the first fluctuation pattern Ha11). There are a plurality of display modes that can be the display modes of the specific game when the jackpot variation pattern Hc11) is determined. Then, regardless of which of the first variation pattern and the second variation pattern is determined, if the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, the match When the non-relationship is the first relationship, the display mode of the specific game is different from the second relationship. Therefore, regardless of which of the first variation pattern and the second variation pattern is determined, the common content that can be identified from the variation pattern designation command and the common content that can be identified from the symbol designation command depending on the display mode of the particular game. It is possible to specify which of the first relationship and the second relationship the contents do not match, and it is possible to suppress discomfort.

  (10) When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information) do not match, the non-matching relationship is the specific relationship. When there is a non-specific relationship with time, the display mode of the specific game is the same regardless of which of the first variation pattern and the second variation pattern is determined. In this way, when the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match, whether the unmatched relationship is a specific relationship or a non-specific relationship, and Whether the determined variation pattern is the first variation pattern or the second variation pattern, the display mode of the specific game is shared. As described above, by sharing the display mode of the specific game, the number of display modes of the specific game can be reduced.

  (11) The combination of the end designation command (end control information) and the specific information (game execution information, match determination result information) based on the start control information (variation pattern designation command, symbol designation command) is a normal combination. In some cases, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game are different from when the combination is abnormal. Therefore, depending on the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game, whether the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a normal combination, that is, the combination of the start time control information and the end designation command is normal. Can be specified. Further, even if the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is an abnormal combination, when the combination is the first abnormal combination and the second abnormal combination, the specific symbol display portion 33a at the end of the special game , 33b have different display contents. Therefore, depending on the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game, the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is specified as to which abnormal combination is the first abnormal combination and the second abnormal combination. It is possible to suppress the discomfort. Thus, from the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game, it can be specified whether the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a normal combination, and the first abnormal combination and the second abnormal Since it is possible to specify which of the combinations is an abnormal combination, it is possible to suppress the discomfort given to the player.

  (12) When the combination of the end designation command (control information at end) and the specific information (game execution information, match determination result information) is a specific abnormal combination, and when the combination of the end designation command and specific information is a non-specific abnormal combination At certain times, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b (specific game execution portion) at the end of the special game are the same. In this way, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game are shared between the specific abnormal combination and the non-specific abnormal combination, thereby identifying the special game at the end. It is possible to reduce the types of display contents of the symbol display portions 33a and 33b. By reducing the types of display contents of the specific game, it is possible to reduce the number of light-emitting bodies that configure the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b, which can also contribute to the cost reduction of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b. ..

  (13) If the special game (special symbol variation game) that can be specified from the game execution information does not match the special game that can be specified from the end designation command (end-time control information), actually the first special game Which of the second special games is being executed cannot be specified. Therefore, if the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b (specific game execution portion) at the end of the special game are made different, a sense of incongruity may be given, and as a result, discomfort may be given. Therefore, if the special game that can be specified from the game execution information does not match the special game that can be specified from the end designation command, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special symbol variable game are displayed. By making them the same, it is possible to suppress the discomfort resulting from the discomfort.

  (14) The combination of the end designation command (end time control information) and the specific information (game execution information, match determination result information) based on the start time control information (variation pattern designation command, symbol designation command) is a normal combination. In some cases, the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game are different from when the combination is abnormal. Therefore, depending on the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b (specific game execution portion) at the end of the special game, whether the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a normal combination, that is, the start time control information and It is possible to specify whether the combination of end designation commands is normal. Furthermore, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is an abnormal combination, when the combination is a specific abnormal combination and when it is a non-specific abnormal combination, the specific symbol display portion 33a at the end of the special game, The display contents of 33b are the same. In this way, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is an abnormal combination, whether the combination is a specific abnormal combination or a non-specific abnormal combination, the specific symbol display portions 33a, 33b at the end of the special game The display contents are common as the display contents of. As a result, the types of display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game can be reduced. In this way, it is possible to determine whether the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a normal combination while reducing the types of display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game at the end of the special game. It can be specified from the display contents of the symbol display portions 33a and 33b, and the discomfort given to the player can be suppressed.

  (15) When the combination of the end designation command and the specific information based on the start time control information (variation pattern designation command, symbol designation command) is an abnormal combination, when it is a specific abnormal combination or a special abnormal combination, a special abnormal The display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game are different from those of the combination. Therefore, depending on the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game, the combination of the end designating command (end control information) and the specific information (game execution information, match determination result information) is “specific abnormal combination. Alternatively, it is possible to specify which abnormal combination of “non-specific abnormal combination” and “special abnormal combination”.

  (16) When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information) match, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command And when the common contents that can be specified from the symbol designating command do not match, the display mode of the specific symbol variation game (specific game) is different. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific game, it is possible to specify whether the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command match. Furthermore, when the combination of a plurality of pieces of information including the consistency determination result information (judgment information) and the end designation command (end-time control information) is a normal combination, a combination of a plurality of pieces of information including the consistency determination result information and an end designation command The display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b at the end of the special game are different from when they are abnormal combinations. Therefore, depending on the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b (specific game execution portion) at the end of the special game, whether a combination of a plurality of pieces of information including the matching determination result information and the end control information is a normal combination It is possible to identify and suppress the discomfort given to the player.

  (17) In a normal combination among a plurality of combinations of information, the matching determination result information (determination information) that can specify that the determination result of the matching determination is “normal” and the first special game can be specified. There is a special combination including an end designation command (contents control information) including contents and game execution information capable of specifying that the first special game is being executed. And when it is a special combination, the display of the 1st specific symbol display part 33a among the 1st specific symbol display part 33a (1st specific game execution part) and the 2nd specific symbol display part 33b (2nd specific game execution part) Only the content is controlled. The normal combination includes the match determination result information capable of specifying that the match determination result is “normal”, the end designation command including the content capable of specifying the second special game, and the second special game. There is a non-special combination including the game execution information that can specify that the game is being executed. And in the case of a non-special combination, only the display content of the second specific symbol display section 33b of the first specific symbol display section 33a and the second specific symbol display section 33b is controlled. In this way, when it is determined that the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command match, and the special game identifiable from the end designation command and the game execution information When the types are the same, only a predetermined specific symbol display unit of the first specific symbol display unit 33a and the second specific symbol display unit 33b is controlled. Thereby, the display content of the second specific symbol display portion 33b is controlled when the first special game is executed, or the display content of the first specific symbol display portion 33a when the second special game is executed. It is possible to suppress the discomfort caused by the control of the.

  On the other hand, when the special game identifiable from the game execution information and the special game identifiable from the end designation command do not match, the display contents of both the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b are Controlled. Thereby, it is possible to specify that the special game that can be specified from the game execution information and the special game that can be specified from the end specification command do not match from the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b accompanying the end of the special game. It is possible to suppress the discomfort given to the player. If the special game that can be specified from the game execution information does not match the special game that can be specified from the end designation command, is either the first special game or the second special game actually executed? It can not be identified. Therefore, by controlling the display contents of both the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b, it is uncomfortable whether the first special game or the second special game is actually being executed. It becomes difficult to give a discomfort, and as a result, it is possible to suppress giving discomfort.

  (18) The first special game is specified from the special game specifying content that can be specified from the variation pattern specifying command (specific control information), and the first special game is specified from the special game specifying content that can be specified from the end designation command (non-specific control information). When one special game is specified, only the display content of the first specific symbol display part 33a of the two specific symbol display parts 33a and 33b is controlled. Further, when the second special game is specified from the special game specifying content that can be specified from the variation pattern specifying command, and the second special game is specified from the special game specifying content that can be specified from the end specifying command, two specifying Only the display content of the second specific symbol display portion 33b of the symbol display portions 33a and 33b is controlled. In this way, the type of special game specified from the special game specifying content that can be specified from the variation pattern specifying command and the type of special game specified from the special game specifying content that can be specified from the end specifying command match. In this case, only the display content of a specific special symbol display portion of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b is controlled. Thereby, when the first special game is being executed, the display content of the second specific symbol display portion 33b (second specific game executing portion) is controlled, and when the second special game is being executed. It is possible to prevent the display content of the first specific symbol display unit 33a (first specific game execution unit) from being controlled.

  On the other hand, if the special game type specified from the special game specific content identifiable from the variation pattern specification command does not match the special game type specified from the special game specific content identifiable from the end specification command, The display contents of both the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b are controlled. Thereby, from the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b accompanying the end of the special game, the type of the special game specified from the special game specifying contents that can be specified from the variation pattern specifying command and the end specifying command can be specified. It is possible to specify that the type of special game specified from the special game specification content does not match, and it is possible to suppress discomfort. In addition, when the type of special game specified from the special game specific content identifiable from the variation pattern specification command does not match the type of special game specified from the special game specific content identifiable from the symbol specification command, Cannot specify which of the first special game and the second special game is actually being executed. Therefore, by controlling the display contents of both the first specific symbol display section 33a and the second specific symbol display section 33b, whichever of the first special game and the second special game is actually being executed, It is difficult to give a feeling of strangeness, and as a result, it is possible to suppress giving an unpleasant feeling.

  (19) If the types of special games specified by the special game specification contents that can be specified by the variation pattern specification command (specific control information) and the end specification command (non-specific control information) do not match, the winning is won in the winning lottery. Even if it is done, the display contents of both the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b become the display contents indicating that the winning is not won. It is expected that the player's interest will be improved if the player wins the win, but if the player does not win the prize after making the player think that the player has won the win, it may cause discomfort. It is highly likely. Therefore, even if the winning is won in the winning lottery, the winning is won by making the display content indicating that the winning is not won in the winning lottery in both the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b. It is possible to prevent the player from thinking that he / she has won the prize even though he / she has not won, and to suppress the discomfort as a result.

  (20) When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command (first control information) matches the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command (second control information), among the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command When at least one is missing, the display mode of the specific game (specific symbol variation game) is different. Therefore, depending on the display mode of the specific symbol variation game, common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command match, or among the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command. Since it is possible to specify whether at least one is missing, it is possible to suppress the discomfort given to the player.

  (21) When the variation pattern designation command of the variation pattern designation command (first control information) and the symbol designation command (second control information) is missing, and the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command of the symbol designation command The display mode of the specific game (specific symbol variation game) is the same as when "is missing". As described above, by setting the display mode of the specific game to the common display mode regardless of whether the variation pattern designation command is missing or the symbol designation command is missing, the display mode of the specific game The types of can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to specify from the display mode of the specific game that at least one of the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command is missing, while reducing the number of types of display modes of the specific game, and not to give to the player. Pleasure can be suppressed.

In addition, each embodiment may be modified as follows.
-It is not necessary to output the end designation command, for example, the sub-control CPU 41a measures the variation time set in the variation pattern that can be identified from the variation pattern designation command, and along with the passage of the variation time, the effect design The combination may be configured to be fixedly stopped and displayed. Further, the sub-control CPU 41a may be configured to control the display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b with the passage of the variable time. At this time, for example, the sub-control CPU 41a, if the determination result of the match determination is abnormal, the specific symbol of the deviation is fixedly stopped and displayed on both the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b. May be controlled as follows. On the other hand, if the determination result of the matching determination is “normal”, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the specific symbol of the designated type to be fixedly stopped and displayed on the first specific symbol display unit 33a or the second specific symbol display unit 33b. You may.

  The content that can be specified from the end designation command may include the lottery specific content. For example, the content that can be specified by the end designation command may be configured to include common content (all content is included in common content). That is, the content that can be specified from the end designation command may include the lottery specific content and the special game specific content.

  The display contents of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b may not be determined when the special game ends, and for example, the specific symbol display portion 33a, when the special game starts. You may comprise so that the display content of 33b may be determined. For example, if the determination result of the matching determination performed with the start of the special game is "abnormal", the deviation specific symbol is confirmed in both the first specific symbol display unit 33a and the second specific symbol display unit 33b. The display may be determined to be stopped.

  The first relationship in the case where the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match may be changed. Further, the second relationship in the case where the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match may be changed. Similarly, the specific relationship or the non-specific relationship may be changed when the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command do not match. For example, a case where at least the lottery specific contents of the special game specific contents and the lottery specific contents do not match may be the first specific relationship.

  When the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command are the first relationship, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command The display mode of the specific game may be the same as when is in the second relationship. Also, when the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command have a specific relationship, the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command The display mode of the specific game may be different from when is a non-specific relationship. For example, when the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common content identifiable from the symbol designation command have a specific relationship or a non-specific relationship, and from the common content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command The display mode of the specific game may be the same as when the possible common content is the special relationship.

  The display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game does not have to be common depending on the variation pattern. For example, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first off pattern variation pattern Ha11 is determined is partly a display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first out variation pattern Ha12 is determined. Alternatively, all may not be common. For example, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the outlying pattern variation pattern is determined is partially or entirely common to the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the jackpot variation pattern is determined. You don't have to. For example, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first special symbol fluctuation pattern is determined is a part or the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second special symbol fluctuation pattern is determined or All do not have to be common. As described above, the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the first variation pattern is determined is the display mode that can be the display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined. It does not have to be common. Further, a display mode that can be a display mode of the specific game when the first variation pattern is determined and a display mode that can be a display mode of the specific game when the second variation pattern is determined are There may not be a plurality of types, and at least one display mode may be one type.

  The control information (command) corresponding to the first control information does not have to be the control information that can specify the variation pattern. The control information (command) corresponding to the second control information does not have to be the control information that can specify the special symbol. For example, the control information that can specify the start of the special game is output, and the control information is the first control information or the second control information, and the content that can be specified from the control information includes common content. It may be configured as follows. In this case, the content that can specify the start of the special game may be non-common content.

  ・ When the common contents that can be specified from the fluctuation pattern specification command and the common contents that can be specified from the design specification command match, the common contents that can be specified from the fluctuation pattern specification command and the common contents that can be specified from the design specification command do not match The display mode of the specific game may be the same as when. For example, when the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command match, the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command match. The display content of the specific game at the end of the special game may be different from that when not performing.

  -If the display mode of the specific game is different, it is not necessary to change the blinking speed of the light emitters that form the specific symbol display unit. For example, if the light emission color of the light emitters is different or the brightness of the light emitters is different. You may let me know. For example, in a situation where the display mode of the first specific game is a high-speed display mode in the above-described embodiment, the first identification is performed with the same color (orange in the above-described embodiment) as the light-emitting body forming the second specific symbol display portion 33b. The luminous body forming the symbol display portion 33a may be configured to emit light. At this time, the speed at which the light-emitting body forming the first specific symbol display portion 33a blinks may be low or high.

  ・ When the combination of the end designation command (end time control information) and the specific information is a normal combination, and when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is an abnormal combination, the specific symbol at the end of the special game The display contents of the display units 33a and 33b may be the same. Further, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is the first abnormal combination, and when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is the second abnormal combination, the specific symbol display portion 33a at the end of the special game , 33b may have the same display content. Further, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a specific abnormal combination, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a non-specific abnormal combination, the specific symbol display portion 33a at the end of the special game, The display content of 33b may be different. For example, when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a specific abnormal combination or a non-specific abnormal combination, and when the combination of the end designation command and the specific information is a special abnormal combination, the specific symbol at the end of the special game The display contents of the display units 33a and 33b may be the same.

  -If the special game specific content identifiable from the game execution information (special game specific content identifiable from the variation pattern designation command) and the special game specific content identifiable from the end designation command do not match, the first specific symbol The control contents of the display unit 33a and the second specific symbol display unit 33b may not be controlled. For example, if the first special game can be specified from the game execution information, even if the second special game can be specified from the end designation command, the first specific symbol display unit 33a and the second specific symbol display unit 33b Of these, only the display content of the first specific symbol display portion 33a may be controlled.

  When the determination result of the determination at the time of stop is "abnormal", it is not necessary to configure the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b so that the specific symbol of the deviation is definitely stopped and displayed. For example, normal (blue or orange) May emit light in different emission colors (for example, yellow), and a special specific symbol may be fixedly stopped and displayed.

  ・ When winning in the winning lottery, the special game specific contents that can be specified from the game execution information (special game specific contents that can be specified from the variation pattern specifying command) and the special game specifying that can be specified from the end specifying command Even if the contents do not match, it may be configured such that the specific symbol for the hit is fixedly stopped and displayed on the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b. At this time, the specific symbol per hit may be configured to be fixedly stopped and displayed on both the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second specific symbol display portion 33b, or the first specific symbol display portion 33a and the second. The specific symbol per hit may be configured to be fixedly stopped and displayed on one of the specific symbol display portions 33b.

  -Among the abnormal combinations of the end designation command and the specific information, the first abnormal combination may be changed. Further, the second abnormal combination may be changed among the abnormal combinations of the end designation command and the specific information. Similarly, of the abnormal combinations of the end designation command and the specific information, the specific abnormal combination or the non-specific abnormal combination may be changed. For example, the first abnormal combination may be a combination in which the special game specific content identifiable from the end designation command does not match the special game specific content identifiable from the specific information (especially game execution information).

  ・ When the common contents identifiable from the variation pattern designation command and the common contents identifiable from the symbol designation command match, when either one of the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command is missing, The display modes may be the same. In addition, the display mode of the specific game is made different when the variation pattern designation command is missing from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command, and when the symbol designation command is missing from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command. May be.

  Even if the variation pattern designation command is missing from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command, the effect game may be executed when the symbol designation command is input. Further, when the variation pattern designation command is missing from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol designation command, the display mode of the specific game may be a high-speed display mode (or a normal display mode). Moreover, when the symbol designating command is missing from the variation pattern designating command and the symbol designating command, the display mode of the specific game may be a high-speed display mode (or a normal display mode).

  Although a plurality of types of special games of the first special game and the second special game are configured to be executable, only one type of special game may be configured to be executable. In this case, the number of special symbol display parts 22a and 22b may be one. Moreover, the number of the specific symbol display portions 33a and 33b may be one. In addition, the effect game executed during the execution of the first special game and the effect game executed during the execution of the second special game may be separated. That is, the type of effect game may be a plurality of types as in the special game and the specific game.

  In the above embodiment, the left symbol is the first symbol Z1, the middle symbol is the second symbol Z2, and the right symbol is the third symbol Z3, but any one of the left symbol, the middle symbol and the right symbol is the first symbol. , 2nd symbol and 3rd symbol may be used. For example, the left symbol to be stopped first may be the first symbol, the right symbol to be stopped next may be the second symbol, and the middle symbol to be stopped finally may be the third symbol. Further, the first specific symbol can also be regarded as a so-called fourth symbol. Similarly, the second specific symbol can also be regarded as a so-called fifth symbol. In this case, among the first symbol to the fifth symbol, the first symbol to the third symbol can be regarded as a symbol group showing the lottery result of the winning lottery by the combination of those symbols, and the fourth symbol and the fifth symbol. Can also be regarded as a design showing the lottery result of the winning lottery by those individual designs.
