There is. Further, the game board 1 is provided with a board lamp 54 capable of emitting light.

  By the way, the game area 6 in which the game balls can flow down can be divided into a left game area (first game area) on the left side of the center in the left-right direction and a right game area (second game area) on the right side. The operation mode of the handle 72k that shoots the game ball so that the game ball flows down the left game area is called "left hitting". On the other hand, the operation mode of the handle 72k that shoots the game ball so that the game ball flows down the right game area is called "right hitting". In the pachinko game machine PY1, the flow path through which the game ball can flow down when the game ball is launched by left-handing is called the first flow path R1, and the game ball flows down when the game ball is launched by right-handing. A possible flow path is called a second flow path R2. The first flow path R1 and the second flow path R2 are also configured by a large number of game nails and the like.

  A first starting port 11 and two general winning openings 10 are provided on the first flow path R1. Therefore, the player can aim the winning at the first starting opening 11 or the general winning opening 10 by firing the game ball so as to flow down the first flow path R1 by left-handing. On the other hand, on the second flow path R2, a second starting opening 12, a gate 13, a first special winning opening 14 and a second special winning opening 15 are provided. Therefore, the player shoots the game ball so as to flow down the second flow path R2 by right-handing, so that the player can pass through the gate 13, the second starting opening 12, the first winning opening 14, or the second winning opening. It is possible to aim for winning at the big winning opening 15.

  In addition, the game balls that have not entered any of the winning openings (the first starting opening 11, the second starting opening 12, the general winning opening 10, the first big winning opening 14, and the second big winning opening 15), It is guided to the outlet 19 and discharged. Further, the number of prize balls to be won in each prize hole can be appropriately set.

  Further, a display device 8 is arranged on the left side below the game area 6 formed on the front surface of the game board 1 (a portion other than the game area 6). As shown in FIG. 4, on the display device 8, the special figure 1 display 81a for variably displaying the special figure 1, the special figure 2 display 81b for variably displaying the special figure 2, and the general figure are variably displayed. A universal figure display 82 is included. Further, the special device 1 reserved display device 83a for displaying a special device 1 reserved number (U1: the number of variable display of the special device 1 displayed by the special device 1 display device 81a) to be described later on the display device 8, Further, a special figure 2 hold indicator 83b for displaying a special figure 2 hold number (U2: number of variable display of the special figure 2 by the special figure 2 indicator 81b) which will be described later is included.

  The variable display of the special figure 1 is executed when the special figure 1 lottery is performed in response to the winning of the game ball into the first starting opening 11. In addition, the variable display of the special map 2 is executed when the special map 2 lottery is triggered by the winning of the game ball into the second starting opening 12. In the following description, the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 are collectively referred to as a special figure, and the special figure 1 lottery and the special figure 2 lottery are collectively referred to as a special figure lottery. The special figure 1 display 81a and the special figure 2 display 81b are collectively referred to as the special figure display 81. Further, the special figure 1 hold indicator 83a and the special figure 2 hold indicator 83b are collectively referred to as the special figure hold indicator 83.

  The variable display of the special map informs the result of the special drawing. In the special display variable display, the special display is variably displayed and then stopped. The special figure to be stopped (stop special figure, special symbol derived and displayed as display result of variable display) is one special figure selected from plural kinds of special figures by special figure lottery. When the stop special map is a predetermined specific special map (a special stop of a specific stop mode, that is, a jackpot pattern), the special winning opening (the first special winning opening 14 and the second special winning opening 15) is opened. A jackpot game (an example of a special game) is played.

  The special figure display device 81 is composed of, for example, eight LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) arranged side by side, and displays a special figure according to the result of the special figure lottery depending on the lighting mode. For example, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a big hit (one of a plurality of kinds of big hits to be described later), the special drawing indicator 81 displays “□□■■□□■■” (□: illuminated, ■ : OFF), the jackpot pattern constituted by lighting the 1, 2, 5, and 6th LEDs from the left is displayed. In addition, if the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss, the special symbol display 81 "■■■■■■■□" displays a lost symbol composed of only the LED on the far right. To do. The lighting mode of the LED corresponding to the result of the special drawing lottery is not limited and can be set appropriately. Therefore, for example, all LEDs may be turned off as a lost design.

  In addition, in the variable display of the special figure, the variable figure is variably displayed for a predetermined fluctuation time before the special figure is stopped and displayed. The variable display mode of the special figure is a mode in which each LED is turned on so that light repeatedly flows from left to right, for example. Note that the variable display mode of the special figure is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately set such that all the LEDs blink all at once unless the LEDs are stopped and displayed (lighting display in a specific mode).

  By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when there is a winning (ball entry) of a game ball into the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12, various random numbers (numerical value information and judgment information One example) may be acquired. The various random numbers are temporarily stored in the special figure reservation storage unit 105, which will be described later, as special figure reservation. In the following, various random numbers obtained by winning (entering) a game ball into the first starting opening 11 are referred to as “special figure 1-related random numbers”, and winning a game ball into the second starting opening 12 The various random numbers obtained by (ball entry) are referred to as “special figure 2 relation random numbers”. Here, the special figure 1 related random number is stored in the special figure 1 holding storage unit 105a in the special figure holding storage unit 105 as the special figure 1 holding. On the other hand, the special figure 2 related random number is stored in the special figure 2 holding storage unit 105b in the special figure holding storage unit 105 as the special figure 2 holding. The number of special figure 1 holds that can be stored in the special figure 1 hold storage unit 105a (the number of special figure 1 holds) and the number of special figure 2 holds that can be stored in the special figure 2 hold storage unit 105b (the number of special figure 2 holds). Can set an upper limit (for example, four). In the following, the special figure 1 hold and the special figure 2 hold are collectively referred to as “special figure hold”, and the special figure 1 hold number and the special figure 2 hold number are collectively referred to as “special figure hold number”. Further, the special figure 1 related random numbers and the special figure 2 related random numbers are collectively referred to as “special figure related random numbers”.

  In the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when the variable display of the special map is not performed immediately after the game ball wins the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12, specifically, the variable display of the special drawing is being executed. If a prize is won during the execution of the or jackpot game, the variable display of the special map (or the right of the special map lottery) for the prize can be reserved. The special figure reservation stored in the special figure reservation storage unit 105 is exhausted when the variable display of the special figure based on the special figure reservation becomes possible. That is, the use of the special figure hold means that a special figure-related random number or the like corresponding to the special figure hold is determined and variable display of the special figure for indicating the determination result is executed.

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

  Further, the variable display of the universal figure informs the result of the universal figure lottery. In the variable display of the public figure, the general figure is variably displayed and then stopped. The public map that is stopped and displayed (stop public map, a public map that is derived and displayed as a display result of variable display) is one public map selected from a plurality of types of public maps by the general drawing lottery.

3. Main Game Played by Gaming Machine Next, a main game played by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 15.

3-1. Games related to public figures First, the games related to public figures are explained. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a general drawing lottery when the launched game ball passes through the gate 13. When the general figure lottery is performed, the general figure display 82 displays the general figure in a variable manner (variable display and then stop display). Here, the universal display stopped and displayed includes a winning design and a lost design. It should be noted that the lost design of the universal drawing is also referred to as a “missed universal design” in order to distinguish it from the lost design of the special drawing described later. When the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is executed, and the game relating to the passage of the gate 13 ends. On the other hand, when the loss general map is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is not performed and the game relating to the passage of the gate 13 is finished. Further, in the following, the gaming ball passing through the gate 13 when the variable display of the universal figure or the auxiliary game is not performed is referred to as "establishment of the universal figure variable start condition".

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

3-1-1. Winning determination Winning determination is a determination for determining whether or not to win (whether or not to execute an auxiliary game) using one or a plurality of hitting determination tables as shown in FIG. 9(A). The hit determination table can be associated with a game state described later. That is, the gaming state includes a non-time saving state and a time saving state. As a hit determination table, a hit determination table used in the non-time saving state (non-time saving hit determination table) and a hit determination table used in the time saving state (time saving use It is possible to distinguish between the hit determination table). In each hit determination table, the judgment value of the normal symbol random number (ordinary symbol random value) is distributed to the hit and the loss as the result of the hit determination. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the acquired normal symbol random number with the hit determination table to determine whether the hit is a hit or a hit. Then, based on the result of the hit determination, the universal figure variation pattern determination for performing variable display of the universal figure is performed. When the result of the hit determination is a hit, basically, the hit symbol is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the ordinary figure. On the other hand, if the result of the hit determination is a loss, basically, the loss general map is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the general figure. Further, the winning probability per winning can be appropriately changed.

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

  The universal pattern variation pattern determination table can be associated with the gaming state. That is, as the universal figure fluctuation pattern determination table, the universal figure variation pattern determination table used in the non-time saving state (non-time saving general figure variation pattern determination table) and the universal figure variation pattern determination table used in the time saving state ( It is possible to distinguish it from the time saving general pattern variation pattern determination table).

  In each public figure fluctuation pattern determination table, one public figure fluctuation pattern, which is the result of the public figure fluctuation pattern determination, is stored for each public figure that is stopped. That is, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 can make the normal figure fluctuation time different between the non-time saving state and the time saving state. For example, in the non-time saving state, for the variable display of the public figure when stopping and displaying the general figure of the loss (missing general figure), the universal figure fluctuation time is determined to be, for example, 30 seconds, and is determined to be the regular figure fluctuation pattern. For the variable display of the universal figure when the display is stopped, the universal figure variation pattern is determined such that the universal figure variation time is, for example, 30 seconds. Further, in the time saving state, the variable display of the universal figure when the lost universal figure is stopped and displayed is determined to be the universal figure variation pattern such that the universal figure variation time is, for example, 5 seconds, and the common pattern when the winning symbol is stopped and displayed is displayed. For the variable display of the figure, the universal figure variation pattern is determined such that the universal figure variation time is 5 seconds, for example. The universal figure display 82 variably displays the universal figure change time corresponding to the universal figure fluctuation pattern determined in this determination. Further, these universal figure fluctuation times can be changed appropriately. In this way, by performing the hit determination and the general pattern variation pattern determination, the general pattern display 82 displays the general pattern variably.

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

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

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can change the opening time of the electric chew 12D between the auxiliary game in the non-time saving state and the auxiliary game in the time saving state. For example, in the auxiliary game in the non-time saving state, the electric Chu 12D is opened for the first opening time (a time (eg, 0.08 seconds) in which it is difficult to put the game ball into the electric Chu 12D). In the following, the auxiliary game in the non-time saving state is also referred to as "short open auxiliary game". Also, in the auxiliary game in the time saving state, the electric Chu 12D is played for the second opening time (the time during which it is easy to put the game ball into the electric Chu 12D (for example, 3.00 seconds)) which is longer than the first opening time. Open. In the following, the auxiliary game in the time saving state is also referred to as "long open auxiliary game".

3-2. Game relating to special figure Next, a game relating to special figure will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a special drawing 1 lottery when the launched game ball wins the first starting opening 11. When the special figure 1 lottery is performed, the special figure 1 indicator 81a displays the variable of the special figure 1 (variable display and then stop display) to notify the result of the special figure 1 lottery. Here, in the special figure 1 which is stopped and displayed, there are a big hit symbol and a lost symbol. That is, the result of the special drawing 1 lottery includes a big hit and a loss. When the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, the big hit game is executed, a new game state is set, and the game based on the winning is completed. On the other hand, when the lost symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not performed, and the game based on the winning is finished.

  Similarly, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs the special map 2 lottery when the launched game ball wins the second starting opening 12. When the special figure 2 lottery is carried out, the special figure 2 display 81b variably displays the special figure 2 (stop display after performing variable display) to notify the result of the special figure 2 lottery. Here, in the special figure 2 which is stopped and displayed, there are a jackpot symbol and a lost symbol. In other words, the special drawing 2 lottery result has a big hit and a loss. When the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, the big hit game is executed, a new game state is set, and the game based on the winning is completed. On the other hand, when the lost symbol is stopped and displayed, the big hit game is not performed, and the game based on the winning is finished.

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

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 acquires a special figure-related random number when the starting condition is satisfied in performing such a series of games (special figure lottery, variable display of special figure, jackpot game, setting of game state), and Various judgments are made on random numbers. As shown in FIG. 8B, the special figure-related random numbers to be obtained include special symbol random numbers (big jackpot random numbers), jackpot symbol type random numbers, reach random numbers, and special symbol fluctuation pattern random numbers. The special symbol random number is a random number for making a jackpot determination. The jackpot symbol type random number is a random number for making a jackpot symbol type determination. The reach random number is a random number for performing reach determination. The special figure variation pattern random number is a random number for performing the variation pattern determination of the special symbol. Each random number has an appropriate range. The random number may be referred to as determination information.

3-2-1. Big hit determination The big hit determination is a determination for determining whether or not it is a big hit (whether or not to carry out a big hit game) using one or a plurality of big hit determination tables as shown in FIG. 10(A). The gaming state includes a normal probability state and a high probability state, and the jackpot determination table is associated with the normal probability state or the high probability state. That is, as the jackpot determination table, it is possible to distinguish between a jackpot determination table used in the normal probability state (normal probability jackpot determination table) and a jackpot determination table used in the high probability state (high probability jackpot determination table). It is possible.

  In each jackpot determination table, the jackpot that is the result of the jackpot determination, and the loss, the determination value of the special symbol random number (special symbol random number value) is distributed. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the acquired special symbol random number with the jackpot determination table to determine whether it is a jackpot or a loss. As shown in FIG. 10(A), the high-probability jackpot determination table has a larger number of special symbol random number determination values determined as a jackpot than the normal-probability jackpot determination table. Also, the winning probability of the jackpot can be changed appropriately.

3-2-2. Jackpot symbol type determination Jackpot symbol type determination, when the result of jackpot determination is a jackpot, the type of jackpot symbols (jackpot symbol type) using one or more jackpot symbol type determination table as shown in FIG. ) Is a judgment for determining. For each type of jackpot pattern, it is possible to associate the jackpot content, in other words, the jackpot constituent element configured with a game privilege or the like given to the player.

  The jackpot symbol type determination table is to be associated with the type of the special symbol that is variably displayed, in other words, the type of the starting opening where the winning is caused (the jackpot symbol type determination has been generated) due to the jackpot symbol type determination. Is possible. That is, as a jackpot symbol type determination table, a jackpot symbol type determination table (first jackpot symbol type determination table) used when performing variable display of special figure 1, and a jackpot used when performing variable display of toku figure 2 It is possible to distinguish between the symbol type determination table (the second jackpot symbol type determination table).

  There are multiple types of jackpot symbols, in each jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type which is the result of the jackpot symbol type determination, the determination value of the jackpot symbol type random number (bonus symbol type random number value) is distributed There is. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the obtained jackpot symbol type random number with the jackpot symbol type determination table to determine the jackpot symbol type. Then, in the first jackpot symbol type determination table and the second jackpot symbol type determination table, jackpot symbol type random number values are appropriately distributed to various jackpot symbols. Further, the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type can be appropriately changed. Further, the types of jackpot symbols can be appropriately increased or decreased.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 10(B), the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type according to the jackpot symbol type determination for the special symbol 1 is 50% for the jackpot symbol X and 50% for the jackpot symbol Y, and for the special symbol 2. It is possible to set the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type by the jackpot symbol type determination of 100% for the jackpot symbol Z. In this way, with the special figure 1 lottery which is done with the game ball winning in the first starting opening 11 and the special figure 2 lottery which is done with the game ball winning in the second starting opening 12, the jackpot symbol type is sorted out. It is possible to have different fractions.

3-2-3. Reach Judgment Whether or not the reach is generated in the special figure variation effect described below by using one or a plurality of reach judgment tables as shown in FIG. 10C when the result of the big hit judgment is a loss. This is a determination for determining whether or not.

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

  In each reach determination table, the reach random number determination value (reach random number value) is assigned to the reach determination result "reach is present (reach is generated)" and "reach is not generated (reach is not generated)". .. Therefore, the pachinko game machine PY1 collates the obtained reach random number with the reach determination table to determine whether there is reach or not (whether or not reach is generated). As shown in FIG. 10C, the number of reach random number values that are determined to be “reach is present (reach is generated)” can be different between the non-time saving reach determination table and the time saving reach determination table. Is. In addition, in the following, "with reach (to generate reach)" that is performed assuming that the result of the jackpot determination is "miss" is referred to as "reach with loss" and "no reach (no reach is generated. )” is sometimes referred to as “miss without reach”.

3-2-4. Special figure fluctuation The special figure fluctuation pattern determination uses the fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure fluctuation pattern determination table) of one or more special symbols as shown in FIGS. 11 to 12, and the fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special figure. This is a determination for determining the (special figure variation pattern), and is performed when the result of the jackpot determination is either a big hit or a loss. The special figure variation pattern is identification information for identifying predetermined items relating to the special figure variation time and the effect flow (effect content) of the special figure variation effect described later. In addition to the special figure change time and the effect flow (effect content) of the special figure change effect, the special figure change pattern can include identification information about the result of the big hit determination and the result of the reach determination. It is possible to use a plurality of types of special figure variation patterns each having different identification information as the special figure variation patterns, and the number thereof can be appropriately changed.

  The special figure variation pattern determination table can be associated with the type of the special symbol that is subjected to the variable display as the determination target, in other words, the type of the starting opening in which the winning due to the special figure variation pattern determination is performed. That is, as the special figure variation pattern determination table, the special figure variation pattern determination table (special figure 1 variation pattern determination table: FIG. 11) used when performing variable display of special figure 1 and the special figure 2 variable display are performed. It is possible to distinguish the special figure variation pattern determination table (special figure 2 variation pattern determination table: FIG. 12) that is used at this time.

  Then, each special figure variation pattern determination table can be associated with the gaming state. That is, as the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table (non-time saving special figure 1 variation pattern determination table) used in the non-time saving state and the special figure 1 used in the time saving state It is possible to distinguish between the fluctuation pattern determination table (time saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table). On the other hand, similarly, the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table is also used in the non-time saving state and the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table (non-time saving special figure 2 variation pattern determination table). It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table (time saving special figure 2 variation pattern determination table).

  In addition, each special figure fluctuation pattern determination table associated with the gaming state can be further associated with a jackpot determination result, a jackpot symbol type determination result, or a reach determination result. That is, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for non-time saving and the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for non-time saving include jackpot (for each jackpot symbol type), reachable loss, and no reach loss. Similarly, the special pattern 1 variation pattern determination table for time saving and the special pattern 2 variation pattern determination table for time saving also each have a jackpot (for each jackpot symbol type), a reachable loss, and a reachless loss.

  Further, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for each loss without reach can be associated with the number of special figure reservations. For example, it is used when the special figure 1 hold number (U1) is 0 to 2, and when the special figure 1 hold pattern (U1) is 3 to 4, and the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for reach-less loss. It is possible to distinguish from the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for loss without reach. Further, the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for each loss without reach can be associated with the special figure reservation number. For example, it is used when the special figure 2 hold number (U2) is 0 to 2, and when the special figure 2 hold pattern (U2) is 3 to 4, and the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for reach-less loss. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for loss without reach.

  Then, the special map display unit 81 variably displays the special map of the special figure fluctuation time according to the special figure fluctuation pattern determined by each special figure fluctuation pattern determination. And in the variable display of the special map, as a display result (the result of the special map lottery), when the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the variable display of the next special symbol is not immediately performed, and subsequently the jackpot game is executed. It

  Further, each special figure variation pattern can be associated with a production flow of special figure variation production as shown in the second column from the right of the tables of FIGS. 11 to 12.

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

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

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

  That is, the prefetch determination table includes a first prefetch determination table used in the non-time saving state, a first prefetch determination table used in the time saving state, and a second prefetch determination table used in the non-time saving state. It is possible to distinguish between the second prefetch determination table used in the time saving state. It should be noted that what kind of determination is included in the prefetch determination can be appropriately changed.

3-3. Jackpot Game Next, the jackpot game will be described. The jackpot game is a multiple round game involving opening and closing of the jackpot (the first jackpot 14 or the second jackpot 15), and from the start of the jackpot game to the start of the first round game. It includes an opening (also referred to as OP) and an ending (also referred to as ED) from the end of the final round game to the end of the jackpot game. Each round game starts with the end of the opening or the end of the previous round game, and ends with the start of the next round game or the start of the ending. Further, it is possible not to provide OP or ED. In the following, the predetermined number of times (predetermined order) of the round game is simply referred to as "round". For example, the first (first) round game is referred to as "1 round (1R)", and the tenth round game is referred to as "10 round (10R)".

  The elements constituting such a big hit game (big hit game constituent elements) include the number of round games, the number of times the special winning opening (the first big winning opening 14 or the second big winning opening 15) is opened in each round game, Includes the type of big winning opening and opening time (opening pattern), time to close until next opening (closing time), opening time (opening time), ending time (ending time), etc. ing. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls the jackpot game using one or more jackpot game control tables as shown in FIG. 14 after the stop display of the special figure. The jackpot game control table stores jackpot game components for each jackpot game. As a jackpot game, it is possible to control one or more kinds of jackpot games.

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

  Further, the number of times and time in each element can be changed appropriately. In addition, it is possible to play the big hit game using both the first big winning opening 14 and the second big winning opening 15 or using only one of them.

  Here, the specific region 16 will be described in detail. The specific region 16 is in a closed state in which a prize cannot be won and in an open state in which a prize can be won by the distribution member 16k. Hereinafter, the operation mode of the distribution member 16k is also referred to as "opening/closing mode of the specific region 16". In this way, the distribution member 16k is controlled in a constant operation mode (specific region 16 is a constant opening/closing mode), but the distribution member 16k is in a constant operation mode (specific region 16 is a constant opening/closing mode), In combination with the opening and closing mode of the second special winning opening 15 in the jackpot game, the difficulty (easiness) of causing the game ball to enter the specific area 16 in the jackpot game is set. In addition, below, that the specific area|region 16 is in an open state is also called "V opening."

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

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

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

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

  Further, in the time saving state, it is possible to easily shorten the universal figure fluctuation time as compared with the non-time saving state. For example, in the time saving state, the universal figure fluctuation time (5 seconds) shorter than the universal figure fluctuation time (30 seconds) determined in the non-time saving state is determined. Therefore, in the time saving state, the number of executions of the universal figure lottery per unit time is larger.

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

  In this way, in the time saving state, the opening time of the electric chew 12D per unit time becomes longer than in the non-time saving state, and the game ball easily enters the second starting opening 12 more easily. As a result, the base, which is the ratio of the number of prize balls to the number of shot balls, increases. Therefore, in a time saving state with a high base, it is possible to aim for a big hit without significantly reducing the number of game balls owned. Therefore, it can be said that the time saving state is more advantageous to the player than the non-time saving state.

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

  In the time saving state, as compared with the non-time saving state, it is easier to win the winning, the general figure variation time is likely to be shorter, and the opening time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game is likely to be longer. The game according to the general figure is set in favor of the player in three points. However, some of these points may be advantageous to the player.

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

4. Main Effects by Gaming Machine Next, main effects performed by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 16 to 22.

4-1. Performance Mode First, the performance mode will be described. The effect mode is a category of effect (or a superordinate conceptual attribute). The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can set a customer waiting effect mode, a normal effect mode, a probability variation effect mode, a time saving effect mode, and a jackpot effect mode as effect modes.

  Customer waiting production mode, special figure variation production is performed in "low probability low base game state", "low probability high base game state", "high probability low base game state" and "high probability high base game state". This is an effect mode that can be set when there is no special figure variation effect and is in a standby state in which no special figure variation effect is performed. The customer waiting effect is performed when the customer waiting effect mode is set. In the customer waiting production, for example, as shown in FIG. 16(A-1), a customer waiting demo video G100 introducing the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is displayed on the display unit 50a. When the normal button 40 is operated while the customer waiting demo video G100 is displayed, as shown in FIG. 16(A-2), a setting screen G101 for making settings relating to the effects of the pachinko gaming machine PY1. Is displayed. The settings relating to the effect include the volume setting of the sound output from the speaker 52, the brightness setting of the display unit 50a (“light amount setting”), the frequency setting of the effect executed (“effect setting”), and the like.

  The normal production mode can be set when the special figure variation production is being performed in the "low probability low base game state" or the "high probability low base game state", and is a production mode indicating that it is a non-time saving state. is there. In the normal effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16(B-1), a first normal effect mode in which a background image (daytime normal background image G102) representing a daytime mountain landscape is displayed on the display unit 50a. 16(B-2), a second normal effect mode in which a background image (background image for evening normal G103) representing the scenery of mountains in the evening is displayed on the display unit 50a, and FIG. 16(B). As shown in -3), there is a third normal effect mode in which a background image (nighttime background image G104) representing a nighttime mountain landscape is displayed on the display unit 50a, and 1 It can be switched under the condition that the special figure variation effect is performed once or a plurality of times as one condition. Further, each of the first to third normal effect modes includes a normal pre-stage effect mode before the reach is established and a normal post-stage effect mode after the reach is established in the special figure variation effect. In the normal pre-stage production mode, any one of the daytime normal background image G102, the evening normal background image G103, and the night normal background image G104 is displayed on the display unit 50a. A corresponding dedicated background image is displayed. Also, a special effect mode that is set only in the "high probability low base game state" may be provided.

  The probability variation effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure variation effect is being performed in the “high-probability-high base game state”, and is an effect mode that indicates a high-probability state and a time saving state. In the probability variation effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16(B-4), a background image representing the universe (probability variation background image G105) is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, in the probability variation effect mode, there are a probability variation pre-stage production mode before the reach is established and a probability variation post-stage production mode after the reach is established in the special figure variation production. In the probability variation former stage effect mode, the probability variation background image G105 is displayed on the display unit 50a, but in the probability variation latter stage effect mode, a dedicated background image corresponding to the type of reach is displayed.

  The time saving effect mode is an effect mode which can be set when the special figure variation effect is being performed in the "low probability high base game state", and is an effect mode which indicates a normal probability state and a time saving state. In the time saving effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16B-5, a background image (time saving background image G106) representing the sky is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, the time-saving effect mode includes a time-saving pre-stage effect mode before the reach is established and a time-saving latter-stage effect mode after the reach is established in the special figure variation effect. In the time saving front stage effect mode, the time saving background image G106 is displayed on the display unit 50a, but in the time saving latter stage effect mode, a dedicated background image corresponding to the type of reach is displayed.

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

  The type of effect mode can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-2. Special figure variation effect Next, the special figure variation effect (also simply referred to as "variation effect") will be described. When the special display variable display is started, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 starts changing the special figure, and changes the special figure and the special lottery result (big hit determination result, big hit symbol type determination result, reach determination result, and Based on the special figure variation pattern determination result), the special figure variation effect is executed. In the special figure variation effect, the variation display of the effect symbol is superposed on the predetermined background image on the display unit 50a. The effect symbol is composed of, for example, numerical symbols 1 to 9, and in the variable display of the effect symbol, the effect symbol changes with the start of the variable display of the special symbol, and the effect symbol with the end of the variable display of the special symbol. Stops. That is, after the special figure fluctuation time and the fluctuation display of the effect symbol are performed, the fluctuation is stopped and the stop display of the effect symbol is performed. Then, the result of the special drawing lottery is notified by the stop display of the effect design.

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

4-2-1. On the display unit 50a of the effect symbol display area image display device 50, as shown in FIG. 17A, a left effect is provided on each of the left side, the center, and the right side of the display unit 50a, which is divided substantially horizontally into three. It is possible to provide a symbol area 50b1, a middle effect symbol area 50b2, and a right effect symbol area 50b3. The left effect symbol area 50b1 is an area for displaying the left effect symbol EZ1 when the effect symbol in the special figure variation effect is stopped and displayed. Similarly, the medium effect symbol area 50b2 and the right effect symbol area 50b3 are areas for displaying the medium effect symbol EZ2 and the right effect symbol EZ3.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 17(A), it is possible to provide a small symbol region 50c in one section of the left end (upper left corner) of the upper end of the display unit 50a. The small symbol region 50c is a region in which the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are variably displayed when the variable display of the special symbols is performed. The small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are composed of numerical symbols 1 to 9, for example.

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

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

  When the variable display of the special figure is started, for example, as shown in FIG. 17(A), the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed on the display unit 50a. The left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol KZ3 are stopped and displayed, and the variable display of the special symbol is not performed, and the variable display of the special symbol is on standby, from FIG. 17(B). As shown in (1), the variable display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is started along with the start, and the variable display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is started. In addition, "↓" in FIG. 17 indicates that the symbols are being displayed in a variable manner. When the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “normal loss variation”, the left effect design EZ1 and the right effect design EZ3 are different as shown in FIG. 17C-1. After the temporary stop in the stop mode, as shown in FIG. 17D, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode (so-called ghost pattern) that suggests a loss. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stop mode that suggests a loss. There are a plurality of stop modes in which the symbols on the left and right are not the same, such as "1.1.2" and "2/4/6" as the stop modes suggesting a loss. On the other hand, when the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is a special figure variation pattern with reach such as “N-miss variation”, as shown in FIG. 17C-2, the left effect design EZ1 And the right effect design EZ3 are temporarily stopped in the same stop mode (so-called reach eyes), and reach is established. At this time, the variable display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is continuously performed, and the reach effect according to the special symbol variation pattern is performed. In addition, the stop order and stop mode of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 can be appropriately changed.

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

  In N reach, as shown in FIG. 18(A), the state where the reach is established is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds), and as shown in FIG. 18(B), the fluctuation speed of the medium effect design EZ2 is gradually increased. Slow down to. Then, when the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “N-miss variation”, as shown in FIG. The symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped and displayed. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stop mode that suggests reach loss. There are a plurality of stop modes that suggest reach loss, such as "7/6/7" and "5/3/5", in which the left and right symbols are the same and the symbol inside is different from the left and right symbols. On the other hand, when the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “N big hit variation”, as shown in FIG. indicate. There are multiple types of stop modes that suggest the big hit, such as "7/7/7" and "2.2.2", in which the symbols on the left and right are the same. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. It should be noted that the effect contents of N reach are not limited to the middle effect symbol EZ2 being gradually decelerated, and can be appropriately changed or added.

4-2-4. SP reach The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform SP reach after N reach. SP reach is an effect that suggests that the possibility that the jackpot determination result was "big hit" is higher than N reach, and functions as an effect for letting the player expect a jackpot.

  In SP reach, after N reach, for example, as shown in FIG. 19A, a background image dedicated to SP reach (a background image G113 for SP reach) is displayed on the display unit 50a, and SP is displayed in the center of the display unit 50a. An image (SP reach start title image) G1 indicating that the reach has started is displayed. After that, as shown in FIG. 19B, an SP-reach-specific effect (for example, battle effect) is performed. Then, when the final stage of the SP reach exclusive effect is reached, if the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “SP jackpot variation”, as shown in FIG. In 50a, an effect suggesting a big hit (for example, a display in which the main character is pleased to win the battle) is performed, and the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 stop in a stop mode (so-called double eyes) that suggests a big hit. indicate. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. On the other hand, when the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “SP loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 19C-2, an effect suggesting the loss (for example, the enemy character is in a battle) The display that is pleased to win) is performed, and the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode that suggests reach loss. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stop mode that suggests a loss. The effect contents of SP reach can be appropriately changed or added.

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

5. Game Control by Game Control Microcomputer 101 Next, game control by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described with reference to FIGS. The counter, timer, buffer and the like that appear in the control of the game by the game control microcomputer 101 described below are provided in the game RAM 104.

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

  Next to the power-on process, interrupts are prohibited (S002), and normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process (S003) is executed. In this normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process (S003), the counter values of various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8(A) and 8(B) are incremented by 1 and updated. When the counter value of each random number reaches the upper limit value, it returns to "0" and is added again. The initial value of the counter for each random number may be a value other than "0", or may be randomly changed. Further, at least a part of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated by using a known random number generation circuit such as a counter IC.

  When the normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process (S003) is completed, the interrupt is permitted (S004). While the interrupt is enabled, the main timer interrupt process (S005) can be executed. The main-side timer interrupt process (S005) is executed based on an interrupt pulse that is repeatedly input to the gaming CPU 102 at a cycle of 4 msec, for example. That is, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed at a cycle of 4 msec. Then, after the main-side timer interrupt process (S005) ends, until the next main-side timer interrupt process (S005) starts, various kinds of normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process (S003) The process of updating the random number counter value is repeatedly executed. When an interrupt pulse is input to the gaming CPU 102 in the interrupt disabled state, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is not started immediately, but is started after interrupt enable (S004).

It is stored in the output buffer of the RAM 104 for use.

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

  Next to the normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process (S103), the game control microcomputer 101 performs the sensor detection process (S104), then the normal operation process (S105), and the special operation process (S106). To do. The sensor detection processing, normal operation processing, and special operation processing will be described later.

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

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

  Then, the game control microcomputer 101 repeatedly executes the processing of steps S002 to S004 of the main control main processing until the interrupt pulse is input to the game CPU 102 (see FIG. 23), and the interrupt pulse is input. Then (after about 4 msec), the main timer interrupt processing (S005) is executed again. The game control microcomputer 101, in the output processing (S101) of the main timer interrupt processing (S005) executed again, the command set in the output buffer of the game RAM 104 in the previous main timer interrupt processing (S005). Etc. are output.

It is cleared from the holding storage unit 105a in FIG. In this way, the special figure 1-related random numbers are digested in the order in which they were acquired. Then, a special figure 1 pending number command representing the special figure 1 pending number after the processing is generated.

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

[2-3-2. Special symbol fluctuation processing]
The special symbol variation process is a process performed during variable display of a special symbol. In the special symbol variation process, in response to the passage of the special symbol variation time, the special symbol display device 81 terminates the variable display of the special symbol and stops the special symbol corresponding to the result of the jackpot determination. If the result of the jackpot determination is a big hit, the jackpot pattern indicating the jackpot is stopped and displayed, and if the result of the jackpot determination is a lose, the lose symbol showing the lose is stopped and displayed. Then, the special figure variation stop command indicating the end of the variable display of the special figure is generated.

[2-3-3. Special symbol confirmation processing]
The special symbol fixing process is a process performed when the special symbol is stopped and displayed. In the special symbol determination process, if the special symbol currently stopped and displayed is a jackpot symbol, the jackpot game state is entered. Then, an opening command indicating the start of the jackpot game is generated. The opening command includes information about the result of the jackpot type determination. Further, when the special symbol currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the high probability state is ended, the normal probability state is set. Then, the high-probability end command indicating the transition to the normal probability state is generated. In addition, when the special symbol currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the time saving state is ended, the non-time saving state is set. Then, the time saving end command indicating the transition to the non-time saving state is generated. In addition, if the special figure that is currently stopped and displayed is a missing symbol and the special figure 2 hold number and the special figure 1 hold number are “0”, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 waits for a customer indicating that it is in a standby state. Generate a command.

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

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

  The commands generated by the game control microcomputer 101 in each process can be appropriately added or changed.

6. Effect control by the effect control microcomputer 121 Next, the effect control by the effect control microcomputer 121 will be described with reference to FIGS. 25 and 26. A counter, a timer, a flag, a buffer, and the like that appear in the description of the effect control by the effect control microcomputer 121 below are provided in the effect RAM 124.

[1. Sub control main processing]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on, the effect control microcomputer 121 provided in the sub control board 120 reads the program for the sub control main processing shown in FIG. 25 from the effect ROM 123 and executes it. As shown in the figure, in the sub-control main processing, first, power-on processing according to power-on is performed (S4001). In the power-on process, for example, setting of the effect CPU 122, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time), and the like are performed.

  Next, interruption is prohibited (S4002), and random number seed update processing is executed (S4003). In the random number seed update process (S4003), the values of various effect determination random number counters for making determinations regarding various effects are updated. The method for updating the random number counter for effect determination with respect to various effects can take the same method as the normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process performed by the main control board 100 described above as an example. When updating, the random number values may be added not by one, but by two. This is the same in the normal symbol/special symbol main random number updating process performed by the main control board 100 described above.

  When the random number seed update processing is completed, command transmission processing is executed (S4004). In the command transmission process, various commands stored in the output buffer in the effect RAM 124 of the sub control board 120 are transmitted to the image control board 140. Upon receiving the command, the image control board 140 displays the image on the display unit 50a according to the received command (executes various effects by the image). In addition, the sub-control board 120 causes the speaker 52 to output sound via the sound control circuit 161 (executes various sound effects) and lamp control together with various effects performed by the image control board 140. Via the circuit 151, the frame lamp 53 and the panel lamp 54 are caused to emit light (various light emission effects by light emission are performed), the movable devices 55, 56, 58 are operated (various movable body effects caused by operation are performed). To execute).

  The production control microcomputer 121 subsequently permits interruption (S4005). After that, steps S4002 to S4005 are looped. While the interrupt is enabled, the reception interrupt process (S4010) and the sub timer interrupt process (S4011) can be executed.

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

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

  In the input process, the operation of the operation unit such as the normal button detection switch 40a and the special button detection switch 41a that can be operated by the player is detected. In the light emission data output process, based on the effect data created in the effect data creation process described later, the light emission data is generated in order to cause the lamps such as the frame lamp 53 and the panel lamp 54 to emit light at a timing that matches the effect produced by the image. Is output to the lamp control circuit 151. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 causes the frame lamp 53, the board lamp 54, and the like to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode in accordance with the light emission data. In the movable device control process, based on the effect data created in the effect data creation process, drive data is output so as to perform movable object effects for operating movable devices such as the movable devices 55, 56, 58 at a predetermined timing. To do. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs a movable object effect in which the movable devices 55, 56, 58 and the like are operated in a predetermined operation mode in accordance with the drive data. In the watchdog timer process, the watchdog timer is reset.

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

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

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

  The game control microcomputer 101 determines the special figure 1 variation pattern based on the jackpot determination result, the reach determination result, and the special figure variation pattern random number in the special figure 1 variation pattern determination process in the non-time saving state. As shown in FIG. 27, the game control microcomputer 101 has twelve types of special figures “THP001” to “THP004”, “THP011” to “THP016”, and “THP021” to “THP022” as special figure 1 variation patterns. It is possible to determine one variation pattern. Which special pattern 1 variation pattern is determined depends on the special figure variation pattern random number.

  Specifically, when the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”, one of the four types of special figure 1 variation patterns of “THP001” to “THP004” is determined. "THP003" and "THP004" of the four types of special figure 1 variation patterns are easier to be determined than the other special figure 1 variation patterns. In addition, "THP001" is called "final battle jackpot fluctuation", "THP002" is called "battle jackpot fluctuation", "THP003" is called "battle/story jackpot fluctuation", and "THP004" is "story jackpot fluctuation". That.

  When the result of the jackpot determination is “miss” and the result of the reach determination is “reach”, one of the six types of special pattern 1 variation patterns of “THP011” to “THP016” is determined. It "THP015" and "THP016" of the six types of special figure 1 change patterns are easier to be determined than the other special figure 1 change patterns. In addition, "THP011" is called "final battle loss variation", "THP012" is called "battle loss variation", "THP013" is called "battle/story loss variation", and "THP014" is "story loss variation". That is, "THP015" is referred to as "branch A loss variation", and "THP016" is referred to as "branch B loss variation".

  In addition, when the result of the jackpot determination is “miss” and the result of the reach determination is “no reach”, one of the two types of special figure 1 fluctuation patterns of “THP021” to “THP022” is determined. It Which of the two types of special figure 1 fluctuation patterns is determined is assigned differently depending on the number of special figure 1 reservations. When the number of special figure 1 reserved is 0 to 1, it is easy to determine "THP021" of 13000 ms where the special figure change time is relatively long, and when the number of special figure 1 reserved is 2 to 4, It is easy to determine “THP022” of 4000 ms with a relatively short fluctuation time. In addition, "THP021" is called "normal A loss variation" and "THP022" is called "normal B loss variation".

  Next, with reference to FIG. 28, a movable device mounted on the performance unit 1U of the game board unit YU will be described. In the production unit 1U, a board left movable device 57L and a board right movable device 57R are mounted in addition to the on-board movable device 55 and the under-board movable device 56.

  Motors are connected to the on-board movable device 55, the under-board movable device 56, the left panel movable device 57L, and the right panel movable device 57R, and each motor is connected to the sub-control board 120 as various actuators SA. ..

  As described above, the on-board movable device 55 is provided in front of the display section 50a and includes the on-board movable body 55k movable along the display section 50a. As described above, the under-board movable device 56 is provided in front of the display section 50a and includes the under-board movable body 56k movable along the display section 50a. The board left movable device 57L is arranged in front of the display unit 50a, the board movable device 55, and the board movable device 56, and includes a board left movable body 57Lk movable along the display unit 50a. The right board movable device 57R is provided in front of the display unit 50a, the upper board movable device 55, and the lower board movable device 56, and includes a right board movable body 57Rk movable along the display unit 50a.

  Before the board left movable device 57L and the board right movable device 57R are driven, the board left movable body 57Lk and the board right movable body 57Rk are displayed on the display unit 50a of the image display device 50 as shown in FIG. 28(A). It is held in a stand-by state that is easy to see. When the board left movable device 57L is driven, the board left movable body 57Lk moves to the right, and when the board right movable device 57R is driven, the board right movable body 57Rk moves to the left. At this time, as shown in FIG. 28B, the display unit 50a is covered with the moved board left movable body 57Lk or the moved board right movable body 57Rk, and the display unit 50a becomes difficult to be visually recognized.

  The on-board movable body 55k is provided with an on-board lamp 55SL, the under-board movable body 56k is provided with an under-board lamp 56SL, the board left movable body 57Lk is provided with a board left lamp 57LSL, and the board right movable. A board right lamp 57RSL is provided on the body 57Rk. The on-board lamp 55SL, the under-board lamp 56SL, the board left lamp 57LSL, and the board right lamp 57RSL each have an LED built therein and are connected to the sub-control board 120 as various lamps SL. The production control microcomputer 121 can cause each of the lamps 55SL, 56SL, 57LSL, 57RSL to emit light in an arbitrary emission color.

  In addition, the on-board movable body 55k, the under-board movable body 56k, and the on-board right movable body 57Rk are respectively provided with translucent lens bodies, and the on-board lamp 55SL, the under-board lamp 56SL, and the on-board right lamp 57RSL emit light. It is performed through each lens body. In addition, the board left movable body 57Lk is provided with a semi-transparent logo lens body 57Lkl that imitates the character of "Story" that reminds the player of "story reach" described later, and the board left lamp 57LSL emits light. It is performed through the logo lens body 57Lkl.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 29 to FIG. 39, the special figure variation effect that can be executed by the effect control microcomputer 121 according to the special figure 1 variation pattern determined by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described. The effect control microcomputer 121 can execute the following effects in the special figure variation effect in the non-time saving state.

A. Normal fluctuation "Normal fluctuation" is an effect that may be performed in response to the start of the variable display of the special figure, and is an effect in which the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are variably displayed. Since the "normal variation" is first performed in the special figure variation effect, it functions as an effect that suggests that the special figure variation effect has started.

B. Reach "Reach" is an effect in which the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed with the same type of effect symbol after the "normal fluctuation". Since "reach" may be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit", it functions as an effect that suggests that a jackpot game may be played. In addition, since "reach" may develop into reach productions such as "battle reach" and "story reach" after that, it also functions as production that suggests that reach production may be performed.

C. Branching Effect “Branching effect” is an effect that may be performed after the “reach” is established, and is an effect that suggests whether or not the effect will develop thereafter. The “branch effect” may be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”, and thus functions as an indication that the jackpot game may be performed. Further, the “branch effect” may develop into a reach effect such as “battle reach” or “story reach” after that, and therefore, it also functions as an effect that suggests that the reach effect may be performed.

D. Battle development gimmick production "Battle development gimmick production" is a production that may be performed in "branch production", and the board movable body 55k, the board movable body 56k, and the board right movable body 57Rk are displayed in a predetermined order. It is a step-up effect that appears on the part 50a. Since the “battle development gimmick production” may develop into a “battle reach” after that, it functions as a production that suggests that “battle reach” may be performed.

E. Story development gimmick production "Story development gimmick production" is a production that may be performed in "branching production", and the board movable body 55k, the board movable body 56k, the board left movable body 57Lk, and the board right movable body 57Rk. , Is a step-up effect that appears on the display unit 50a in a predetermined order. The “story development gimmick production” functions as a production that suggests that “story reach” may be performed because it may later develop into “story reach”.

F. Battle Reach "Battle reach" is an effect that may be performed after "branching effect" in which "battle development gimmick effect" is performed, and is a reach effect in which an ally character battles with an enemy character. "Battle reach" is more likely to be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is "miss" than when it is "loss", so as a production that suggests that a jackpot game is likely to be performed Function. In addition, since "Battle Reach" may develop into "Final Battle Reach" or "Story Reach" after that, it also functions as a production that suggests that the reach production may develop.

G. Final Battle Reach "Final Battle Reach" is a production that may be performed after "Battle Reach", and is a reach production in which an ally character battles with a strong enemy character. "Final Battle Reach" is more likely to be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is "Loss" than when it is "Loss", so a jackpot game is likely to be performed Function as. In addition, the jackpot game is easier to play when the battle reach is changed to the final battle reach than when the battle reach is not changed to the final battle reach. The "reach" also functions as a production that suggests that the jackpot game is more likely to be performed than the "battle reach". In addition, the "final battle reach" does not have an effect that develops after that, so it also functions as an effect that suggests a win.

H. Story Reach "Story Reach" is a production that may be performed after "Battle Reach" or "Branch Production" where "Story Development Gimmick Production" is performed, and is a reach where a story whose main character is a hero progresses. It is a production. "Story reach" is more likely to be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is "miss" than when it is "loss", so it is a production that suggests that a jackpot game is likely to be performed. Function. In addition, since the jackpot game is easier to play when "Battle Reach" has evolved from "Story Reach" to "Story Reach,""StoryReach" is , It also functions as a production that suggests that jackpot games are more likely to be played than in "Battle Reach". Also, since the jackpot game is easier to play when developing from "Battle Reach" to "Story Reach" than when developing from "Battle Reach" to "Final Battle Reach", "Story Reach" is It also functions as a production that suggests that a jackpot game is more likely than the "final battle reach". In addition, “story reach” also functions as an effect that suggests a win because there is no effect that develops thereafter.

I. Resurrection and Development Gimmick Production "Resurrection and Development Gimmick Production" is a production that may be performed after "Battle Reach" has been suggested to be lost. , Is a notice effect that may appear on the display unit 50a at the same time or substantially at the same time. The “revival and development gimmick production” functions as a production that suggests that “story reach” may occur because it may later develop into “story reach”.

  Next, the production flow of the main special figure variation production in the non-time saving state will be described. In each effect that constitutes the effect flow, the effect control microcomputer 121 displays an effect image on the display unit 50a, and in accordance with the effect image display, a light emission effect using the frame lamp 53 or the panel lamp 54 and a speaker. The sound effect using 52 can be executed.

  In the special figure variation effect of the special figure 1 variation pattern of “final battle jackpot variation” and “final battle loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 29(A), “normal variation”→“reach”→“branch production”→ A production flow composed of "battle reach" → "final battle reach" is executed. In addition, "battle development gimmick effect" may be performed in "branch effect" in these special figure variation effects.

  In addition, in the special figure variation effect in which the variation pattern of special figure 1 is “battle jackpot variation” and “battle loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 29B, “normal variation”→“reach”→“branch effect”→ A production flow composed of "battle reach" is executed. In addition, "battle development gimmick effect" may be performed in "branch effect" in these special figure variation effects. Further, as will be described later in detail, in the “battle reach” in the special figure variation effect of the “battle loss variation”, a so-called gasse effect in which the “revival development gimmick effect” is performed halfway may be performed.

  In addition, in the special figure change effect in which the special figure 1 change pattern is "battle/story jackpot change" or "battle/story loss change", as shown in FIG. 29C, "normal change"→"reach"→" A production flow composed of “branch production”→“battle reach”→“story reach” is executed. In addition, the "branch development gimmick production" may be performed in the "branch production" in these special map variation productions, and the "revival development gimmick production" may be performed in the "battle reach" in these special figure variation productions. There is.

  In addition, in the special figure change effect in which the special figure 1 change patterns are “story jackpot change” and “story loss change”, as shown in FIG. 29D, “normal change”→“reach”→“branch effect”→ A production flow composed of "story reach" is executed. In addition, "story development gimmick production" may be performed by "branch production" in these special figure change productions.

  In addition, in the special figure variation effect in which the special figure 1 variation pattern is “branch A loss variation” and “branch B loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 29E, “normal variation”→“reach”→“branch effect”. The effect flow composed of “” is executed. In addition, as will be described later in detail, in the “branch effect” in these special figure variation effects, a so-called gase effect in which “battle development gimmick effect” or “story development gimmick effect” is performed halfway may be performed.

  Further, in the special figure variation effect in which the special figure 1 variation pattern is “normal A loss variation” and “normal B loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 29F, an effect flow including only “normal variation” Is executed.

  Next, the main effects executed in the special figure variation effect in the non-time saving state will be specifically described. In the special figure variation effect described below, the variation display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 and the variation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are also performed, but the illustration of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is omitted. I have something to do. In addition, in the special figure variation effect described below, the holding icon HA is also displayed in parallel, but the holding icon HA may be omitted in some cases.

  First, the "branching effect" will be specifically described. The special control 1 variation pattern of the production control microcomputer 121 is “final battle jackpot variation”, “final battle loss variation”, “battle jackpot variation”, “battle loss variation”, “battle/story jackpot variation”, “battle/ Execute "branch effect" after "reach" is established in the special figure change effect of "Story loss variation", "Story jackpot variation", "Story loss variation", "Branch A loss variation", "Branch B loss variation" It is possible. The "branching production" suggests the possibility of developing into "battle reach" or "story reach".

  FIG. 30(A) to FIG. 32(H) are diagrams showing how the “branching effect” is performed. In the "branch production", "battle development gimmick production" or "story development gimmick production" is performed. As shown in FIG. 30(A), when the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed with the same type of effect symbol and "reach" is established, "branch effect" is started.

  When the "branching effect" is started, as shown in FIG. 30B, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are reduced and moved to the left center part of the display section 50a. After that, the special map 1 variation patterns are “final battle jackpot variation”, “final battle loss variation”, “battle jackpot variation”, “battle loss variation”, “battle/story jackpot variation”, “battle/story loss variation” In the case, "battle development gimmick production" is performed, and when the special pattern 1 variation pattern is "story jackpot variation" and "story loss variation", "story development gimmick production" is performed. On the other hand, when the special pattern 1 variation pattern is “branch A loss variation” or “branch B loss variation”, “battle development gimmick effect” or “story development gimmick effect” is performed halfway.

  FIG. 31(A) to FIG. 31(G) are diagrams showing how the “battle development gimmick effect” is performed. Special Figure 1 When the variation pattern is "Final battle jackpot variation", "Final battle loss variation", "Battle jackpot variation", "Battle loss variation", "Battle/Story jackpot variation", "Battle/Story loss variation" The "battle development gimmick effect" that is performed is composed of four stages of step 1 to step 4, and the effect proceeds in the order of step 1 → step 2 → step 3 → step 4. In the "Battle development gimmick effect" of step 1, as shown in FIG. 31(A), a board below the board movable body 56k is displayed on the display unit 50a above the board below movable body 56k in the standby state. The movable body image G10 is displayed blinking. The display of the under-board movable body image G10 suggests that the under-board movable body 56k may appear on the display unit 50a. That is, the display of the under-board movable body image G10 functions as an effect to fuel the appearance of the under-board movable body 56k.

  Further, in the "battle development gimmick effect" of step 2, as shown in FIG. 31(B), after the under-board movable body 56k appears up to a position where it overlaps with the under-board movable body image G10, FIG. As shown, the under-board movable body 56k returns to the position in the standby state. At this time, the under-panel movable body image G10 is erased, and the panel right movable body image G11 imitating the right panel movable body 57Rk is blinkingly displayed on the display unit 50a on the left side of the right panel movable body 57Rk in the standby state. To be done. The display of the board right movable body image G11 suggests that the board right movable body 57Rk may appear on the display unit 50a. In other words, the display of the board right movable body image G11 functions as an effect to fuel the appearance of the board right movable body 57Rk.

  Further, in the "battle development gimmick production" of step 3, as shown in FIG. 31(D), after the board right movable body 57Rk appears up to a position where it overlaps with the board right movable body image G11, it is displayed in FIG. 31(E). As shown, the board right movable body 57Rk returns to the position in the standby state. At this time, the board right movable body image G11 is erased, and the board movable body image G12 imitating the board movable body 55k is blinked and displayed on the display unit 50a below the board movable body 55k in the standby state. It The display of the on-board movable body image G12 suggests that the on-board movable body 55k may appear on the display unit 50a. That is, the display of the on-board movable object image G12 functions as an effect to fuel the appearance of the on-board movable object 55k.

  Further, in the "battle development gimmick production" in step 4, as shown in FIG. 31(F), after the movable body 55k on the board appears to the position where it overlaps with the movable body image G12 on the board, FIG. As shown, the on-board movable body 55k returns to the standby position. At this time, the on-board movable body image G12 is erased, and the reach title image G13 (here, the character image of “battle reach”) is displayed on the display unit 50a. The display of the reach title image G13 suggests that the reach battle image is developed. As will be described in detail later, in the “battle development gimmick effect”, light emission effects by the on-board lamp 55SL, the under-board lamp 56SL, the board left lamp 57LSL, and the board right lamp 57RSL are also performed in parallel.

  Next, the “final battle reach” will be specifically described. The effect control microcomputer 121 can execute the "final battle reach" after the "battle reach" in the special figure change effects in which the special figure 1 change patterns are "final battle jackpot change" and "final battle loss change". "Final Battle Reach" suggests the possibility of jackpot games.

  38(A) to 38(C) are diagrams showing how the "final battle reach" is performed. When the strong enemy character image G22 is displayed on the display unit 50a in the "battle reach" (see FIG. 36(E)), the "final battle reach" is performed.

  In the "final battle reach", as shown in FIG. 38(A), the teammate character image G20 and the strong enemy character image G22 are displayed on the display unit 50a, and the moving image of the teammate character and the strong enemy character battle is displayed. Then, in the case where the special pattern 1 variation pattern is “final battle jackpot variation”, as shown in FIG. 38(B), a scene in which the teammate character wins over the strong enemy character is displayed on the display unit 50a, and the effect symbol EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 stop and display in a mode that suggests a big hit (in this case, "5.5.5" doublet). On the other hand, when the special pattern 1 variation pattern is “final battle loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 38(C), the scene where the ally character is defeated by the strong enemy character is displayed on the display unit 50a, and the effect symbol EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 stop and display in a mode that suggests a loss (here, reach lost eyes of "5.6.5").

  Next, “story reach” will be specifically described. The production control microcomputer 121 can execute "story reach" after "battle reach" in the special figure variation production in which the special figure 1 variation pattern is "battle/story jackpot variation" and "battle/story loss variation". Therefore, in the special figure change effect in which the special figure 1 change patterns are “story jackpot change” and “story loss change”, “story reach” can be executed after “branch effect”. “Story reach” suggests the possibility of jackpot games.

  FIG. 39(A) to FIG. 39(C) are diagrams showing how “story reach” is performed. When the "story development gimmick production" of step 5 is performed in the "branching production" (see FIG. 32(H)), or in the "battle reach", the board movable body 55k, the board left movable body 57Lk, and the board right movable body. When 57Rk appears on the display unit 50a, "revival development gimmick effect" is performed (see FIG. 37(B)), "story reach" is performed.

  In “Story reach”, as shown in FIG. 39(A), the teammate character image G20, the heroine character image G23, and the story title image G24 are displayed on the display unit 50a, and a video of the encounter between the teammate character and the heroine character is displayed. Is displayed. After that, when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “story jackpot variation”, the scene where the ally character and the heroine character meet is displayed on the display unit 50a, and as shown in FIG. 39(B), the effect symbol EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a mode that suggests a big hit (in this case, "5.5.5" doublet). On the other hand, when the special pattern 1 variation pattern is “story loss variation”, a scene in which the ally character and the heroine character cannot meet is displayed on the display unit 50a, and as shown in FIG. 39(C), the effect symbol EZ1. , EZ2 and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a mode in which a loss is suggested (here, reach loss eyes of "5.6.5").

  Here, the story title image G24 displayed on the display unit 50a at the start of the “story reach” will be described. As described above, the “story reach” is performed after the “story development gimmick production” or the “revival development gimmick production”. In the “story development gimmick production” and the “revival development gimmick production”, the board left movable body 57Lk provided with the logo lens body 57Lkl imitating the characters of “story” appears on the display unit 50a.

That is, since the character image of "Story" is displayed after the appearance of the logo lens body 57Lkl imitating the characters of "Story", "Story development gimmick production" or "Resurrection development gimmick production" and "Story" It is easy to recall that the “reach” is associated with the left side movable body 57Lk, and the appearance of the left movable body 57Lk leads to a “story reach”.

<Consideration of First Embodiment>
Hereinafter, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 described in the first embodiment will be considered. First, the probability that the jackpot game is performed after the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, and the jackpot game is performed after the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear at the same time or substantially the same time. Consider the relationship between the probability of being hit and. When the right board movable body 57Rk and the onboard board movable body 55k appear in order, there are a case where it develops into "battle reach" and a case where it develops into "story reach". On the other hand, when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear at the same time or substantially at the same time, the story rightly develops after that. In other words, since "Story Reach" is more likely to play a jackpot game than "Battle Reach", when the right board movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k sequentially appear, and the right board movable body 57Rk and the board It can be said that the probability that the jackpot game is played is different between when the upper movable bodies 55k appear at the same time or substantially at the same time. In the first embodiment, the jackpot game is more likely when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially at the same time than when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order. High probability of being done.

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

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

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the board left movable body 57Lk and the development to “story reach” will be considered. When the left board movable body 57Lk appears in the "branching effect", it surely develops into "story reach". On the other hand, when the left board movable body 57Lk does not appear in the “branching effect”, there are cases where the development proceeds to “battle reach” and then to “story reach”, and sometimes not. In other words, it can be said that the probabilities of developing "story reach" are different when the board left movable body 57Lk appears and when the board left movable body 57Lk does not appear. In the first embodiment, the probability of developing "story reach" is higher when the board left movable body 57Lk appears than when the board left movable body 57Lk does not appear (developing into "story reach"). easy).

  Next, when the board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk, a jackpot game is performed, and when the board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of the board right movable body 57Rk, a big hit occurs. Consider the relationship between the probability of a game being played and. When the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk in the "branching effect", the "story reach" is surely developed after that. On the other hand, when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the stand-by state of the right board movable body 57Rk in the "branching effect", it develops into "battle reach" and then into "story reach" and when it does not develop. There is. In other words, since "Story Reach" is more likely to carry a jackpot game than "Battle Reach", when the board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk, and when the board right movable body 57Rk appears. It can be said that the probability that the jackpot game is performed is different between when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state. In the first embodiment, when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the on-board movable body 57Rk than when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of the on-board movable body 57Rk, the jackpot game Is likely to occur.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the movable body 55k on the board and the jackpot game will be considered. When the on-board movable body 55k appears in the "branching effect", it develops into "battle reach" or "story reach". On the other hand, if the on-board movable body 55k does not appear in the "branch effect" (in the case of a gaze effect), the game is lost without developing into "battle reach" or "story reach". In other words, since "Battle Reach" and "Story Reach" are highly likely to be a jackpot game, the probability that the jackpot game is played is different when the movable body 55k on the board appears and when it does not appear. Can be said to be different. In the first embodiment, the jackpot game is more likely to be played when the movable body 55k on the board appears than when it does not appear.

  Next, the probability that the on-board movable body 55k will appear after the on-board movable body 55k is shaken, and the probability that the on-board movable body 55k will appear after the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed. Consider the relationship between and. After the swing motion of the on-board movable body 55k is performed in the "branching effect", the on-board movable body 55k appears with a probability of about 73%. On the other hand, after the on-board movable object image G12 is displayed in the “branching effect”, the on-board movable object 55k appears with a probability of approximately 69% (see FIGS. 27 and 33). In other words, it can be said that the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears is different between when the on-board movable body 55k is shaken and when the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed. In the first embodiment, the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears is higher when the on-board movable body 55k is shaken than when the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed.

After the swing motion of one of the right board movable body 57Rk and the onboard board movable body 55k is performed, both the right board movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear with a probability of about 73%. On the other hand, after the swing motions of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k are performed, both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear with a probability of about 70% (Fig. 27, see FIG. 33). In other words, when the shaking motion of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, and when the shaking operation of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, It can be said that the probability that both the right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k appear is different from each other. In the first embodiment, when one of the right board movable body 57Rk and the onboard board movable body 55k performs the shaking operation of both the right board movable body 57Rk and the onboard board movable body 55k. The probability that both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear is higher.

  Next, if one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k swings, and then both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear, a jackpot game is played. , The probability that the jackpot game is performed when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the shaking motions of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k are performed. Consider the relationship. If both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the shaking motion of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, there is a probability of about 75% of the jackpot game. Is done. On the other hand, when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing motions of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k are performed, there is a probability of about 86%. A jackpot game is played (see FIG. 27). That is, when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the shaking motion of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k, and the case where the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear. It can be said that the probability that the jackpot game is performed is different between the case where both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the shaking motions of both the upper movable bodies 55k are performed. In the first embodiment, the right side of the board 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k are moved to the right side of the board more than when both of the right-side board movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k appear. The probability that the jackpot game is performed is higher when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing motions of both the movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k are performed.
