Next, the winning group will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 to 13.
The winning group is not limited to those shown in FIGS. 11 to 13.
11 to 13 show a plurality of predetermined winning combination groups, and each winning combination group is composed of one winning combination or a combination of a plurality of winning combinations.

Therefore, when the winning combination group is composed of a plurality of winning combinations, it means that a plurality of winning combinations of the winning combination group are simultaneously elected (winning in duplicate).
Then, in the present embodiment, the winning combination lottery means 210 determines whether or not one of the winning combination groups shown in FIGS. 11 to 13 will be selected by winning the winning combination.

As shown in FIG. 11, in the winning combination group including the bonus transition combination, “RBB1” won by RBB1, “RBB2” won by RBB2, “RBB3” won by RBB3, and “RBB4” won by RBB4. , RBB5 wins "RBB5", and RBB6 wins "RBB6".

As shown in FIG. 12, the winning combination group “HZ” (miss) indicates a case where no other winning combination group has won.

As illustrated in FIG. 12, the winning combination group including the replay combination is provided with “NXP1” that is won by RP_1 to RP_14, and “NXP2” that is won by RP_1 to RP_14, RP_15, and RP_16.

As shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, “NCH”, CH_1 to CH_3, in which CH_1 to CH_3 (irregular cherry) and CHL_1 to CHL_15 (weak cherry: see FIG. 8) are selected in the winning combination group including the small winning combination. (Irregular cherry: see FIG. 8), CHH_1 to CHH_13 (strong cherry: see FIG. 8) wins “HCH”, WM_1 to WM_8 (watermelon: see FIG. 8) wins “WM”, AT_1 to AT_6 (push order) Correct answer: Refer to FIG. 8) wins "PZ", WM_1 to WM_8 (watermelon), AT_1 to AT_6 (press order correct answer: see FIG. 8), ALL2 (all payouts are 1) “ALL1”, AT_1, ATL_1, ATL_2, ATC_1 to ATC_4, ATR_1 to ATR_4, and “ATA1” won by ONE_1 to ONE_6.

Here, for example, the winning combination group “ATA1” has different winning combinations depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 50, and when the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is correct, AT_1 is established (winning). It is a push order combination, and if the push order is correct, 10 medals are paid out, and if the push order is incorrect, another combination is established (winning) and one medal is paid out (FIG. 9, FIG. (See FIG. 10).
It should be noted that when the winning group "ATA1" is won, the correct answer in the pushing order of the stop switch 50 is LCR, that is, the left stop switch L, The order is the middle stop switch C and the right stop switch R, and indicates that AT_1 is established (winning) when the stop switch 50 is operated in the pressing order of the correct answer.

In addition, in the winning lottery, a winning combination group may be set to simultaneously win a plurality of winning combinations.

Next, with reference to FIG. 14, a winning combination group randomly selected for each game state will be described.
As shown in FIG. 14, in each winning combination group, it is set whether or not the combination lottery means 210 performs the combination lottery according to the gaming state (see FIG. 16) and the number of inserted coins.

FIG. 14A shows a winning combination group that is a lottery target when the player operates the max bet switch 34. Therefore, when the prescribed number is 2 or 3 in the game state (RT0, RT1, RT2), the number of inserted coins is 3, and when the prescribed number is 3 in the game state (RBB1, RBB2, RBB4, RBB4) In the game state in which the number of inserted sheets is three and the prescribed number is two (RBB5, RBB6), the inserted number is two.

Further, FIG. 14B shows a winning combination group which is a lottery target when the player inserts two pieces in the case where the prescribed number is two or three.
For example, even if it is a bonus transfer combination, if the max bet switch 34 is operated in the game state “RT0”, the winning combination groups “RBB1” to “RBB4” are targeted for the lottery, but the single bet switch. When 35 is operated twice, the winning combination groups “RBB5” and “RBB6” are selected by lottery.

(Reel control means 220)
The reel control means 220 is a means included in the main control board 200, and is for stopping the rotation of each rotating reel 62. The reel control means 220 stops the rotation of each rotary reel 62 based on the lottery result of the combination lottery means 210 and the corresponding rotation position of the rotary reel 62 when each stop switch 50 is operated. It should be noted that the reel control means 220 may make a condition for stopping whether or not the order (pushing order) at which the stop switches 50 are stopped meets a predetermined condition, if necessary. The processing by the reel control means 220 is performed in step S12 (see FIG. 18) described later.

(Stop symbol determination means 230)
The stop symbol determination means 230 is a means included in the main control board 200, and is for storing a combination of the symbols 61 on the activated line 86 when all the spinning reels 62 are stopped and for determining a winning or the like. is there. The processing by the stop symbol determination means 230 is performed in step S13 (see FIG. 18) described later.

(Payout control means 240)
The payout control unit 240 is for performing a predetermined process such as a medal payout based on the determination result of the stop symbol determination unit 230. As a result of the determination by the stop symbol determination means 230, the payout control means 240 pays out medals when it is determined that the small winning combination has been won. The processing by the payout control means 240 is performed in step S14 (see FIG. 18) described later.

(Game control means 250)
The game control means 250 controls the game state.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the game control means 250 roughly includes a normal game state control means 251, a bonus internal middle state control means 252, and a bonus game state control means 253.

(Normal game state control means 251)
The normal game state control means 251 controls the "normal game state" (see FIG. 16). Here, the normal game state means a state other than the bonus internal state by the bonus internal state control means 252 and the bonus game state by the bonus game state control means 253.

(Bonus internal state control means 252)
The bonus inside state control means 252 controls the “bonus inside state” (see FIG. 16). Here, the internal bonus state is won when the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” to “RBB6” is won, but the combination of the symbols 62 corresponding to the bonus transfer combination cannot be stopped and displayed on the activated line 86. ..

(Bonus game state control means 253)
The bonus game state control means 253 controls the “bonus game state” (see FIG. 16).
The bonus game state is shifted by winning the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” to “RBB6” and stopping and displaying the combination of the symbols 61 corresponding to the bonus transfer combination on the activated line 86.

Here, "RBB1" to "RBB4" are finished by paying out medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, 36 medals, and "RBB5" and "RBB6" are paying out medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, 5 medals. finish.
Then, after the bonus game state ends, the game state shifts to the normal game state.

(Advantageous section control means 260)
The advantageous section control means 260 controls a non-advantageous section in which an operation mode of the stop switch 50 described later with reference to FIG.
Then, an effect or the like for informing the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is executed using the effect control means 320 described later.

In addition, the advantageous section control means 260 wins the transition lottery from the "non-advantageous section" to the "advantageous section", which is performed when a predetermined condition is satisfied, for example, when a winning combination predetermined by the winning combination is won. As a result, the "non-advantageous section" is shifted to the "advantageous section" (see FIG. 15).

It should be noted that it is not limited to the case of shifting to the advantageous section when it is decided to shift to the advantageous section by a lottery (advantageous section transition lottery) executed by winning a predetermined combination by the role lottery. By winning the defined winning combination, the non-advantageous section may be shifted to the advantageous section without performing the advantageous section transition lottery.

Further, the advantageous section control means 260 executes various kinds of lottery in each state belonging to the advantageous section, as described later.

In addition, the advantageous section control means 260 starts counting the number of games when shifting to the advantageous section, and the counted number of games is a predetermined number of games determined by a ceiling game number lottery described later, for example, 666 games, When it reaches the first AT state, the first AT state described later is set (so-called ceiling).
Here, before reaching a predetermined number of games, for example, 666 games, a lottery is made as to whether or not to shift to an AT state described later (first AT state shift lottery (during advantageous zone normal state), first AT state shift lottery ( In the CZ state), the first AT state transition lottery (points)), when the CZ points obtained by the CZ point lottery reach a predetermined CZ point, the number of games counted by the ceiling game number counter Is initialized.
The predetermined number of games is not limited to the case of being determined by lottery, and may be a predetermined number of games.

Further, the counting of the number of games by the ceiling game number counter is made such that only the number of games of betting with three bets is counted, and the number of games of betting with two bets is not counted.
As will be described later, this is only a game with three bets, processing regarding an advantageous section, for example, an advantageous section transition lottery, push order navigation, etc. are performed, so a two-sheet bet without processing regarding an advantageous section is performed. The number of games played in is not counted.

In addition, the upper limit of the advantageous section is set in the game section in which the game can be played, and when the predetermined upper limit number of games, for example, 1500 games have been exhausted after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, the upper limit of the advantageous section Assuming that the number of games has been reached, the advantageous section is shifted to the non-advantageous section.
Further, in the present embodiment, even after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section and before the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 games) is exhausted (before reaching the upper limit number of games of the advantageous section), When a predetermined number of payouts (for example, so-called MY2400) has been obtained, this is used as a trigger to shift from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section even before the upper limit number of games is exhausted.

(Transmission means 270)
The transmitting means 270 is for transmitting a signal to the sub control board 300.

(Sub control board 300)
As shown in FIG. 5, the sub-control board 300 has a receiving unit 310 and an effect control unit 320. Details of each means will be described later.

With the above-mentioned configuration, the sub control board 300 receives a signal from the main control board 200 and performs an effect along with the progress of the game.
Specifically, the sub-control board 300 outputs data that regulates turning on and off of the LED to an LED drive circuit (not shown) for driving the effect lamp 78, and outputs a sound from the speaker 72. Video data for outputting data defining an audio to be output to an audio output circuit (not shown) for outputting, and for outputting to a liquid crystal control board (not shown) for driving the display device 84 Or output data that specifies

(Reception means 310)
The receiving means 310 receives the signal from the transmitting means 270.

(Production control means 320)
The effect control means 320 controls the effect of the gaming machine 10 according to the game state shown in FIG. 16 and the state of the advantageous section shown in FIG.

Further, when the effect control unit 320 receives a command for informing the pressing order of the stop switch 50 from the advantageous section control unit 260 of the main control board 200 during the advantageous section shown in FIG. 17, the pressing order of the stop switch 50 concerned. Can be performed.

Specifically, on the screen of the display device 84 corresponding to the position of each stop switch 50 (specifically, the position of the rotary reel 62 corresponding to each stop switch 50), a plurality of images or videos (for example, "1 "2" "3") is displayed to notify the pressing order. Thereafter, each time the stop switch 50 is operated, the portion corresponding to the position of the operated stop switch 50 in the image or video showing the pressing order is erased (or changed to an image in which the order is not displayed).

(Explanation of the game state using FIG. 16)
Next, a game state will be described with reference to FIG.
The game state is managed by the main control board 200, and roughly divided into a normal game state, a bonus inside state, and a bonus game state, as shown in FIG.

(Normal game state)
The normal game state is controlled by the normal game state control means 251.
The probability of winning the replay combination in the normal gaming state is set to normal (1/7.3).
If a bonus transfer combination is won by a role lottery in the normal game state and the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus transfer combination is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, the normal game state is shifted to the internal bonus state and stopped. If it is displayed, it shifts to the bonus game state.

The specified number in the normal game state is two or three, and when the max bet switch 34 is operated, three medals are inserted.
Further, in the normal game state, as shown in FIG. 14B, the winning combination groups “RBB5” and “RBB6” are targeted for the role lottery only when the number of bets is two, so the player is It is desirable to operate the single bet switch 35 twice without operating the max bet switch 34 so that the number of inserted coins is two.
As will be described later, in the gaming state “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), the advantageous section transition lottery is not selected regardless of whether the number of bets is three or two. RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), and to shift to the game state “RT2” in which the advantageous zone shift lottery is possible, so that the winning combination is a bonus shift combination of the game state “RT2” This is because the groups “RBB5” and “RBB6” are included in the lottery target.

Further, when the player is staying in the normal game state and the number of bets is three, the processing regarding the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery or the pushing order navigation is performed, but when the number of bets is two, it is advantageous. No processing is performed on the section.

(Internal bonus state)
The internal bonus state is controlled by the internal bonus state control unit 252, and in the normal game state, the bonus transition combination “RBB1” to “RBB6” (see FIG. 11) is won, and the bonus transition combination “RBB1” to “RBB1” to “RBB1”. If the symbol combination corresponding to "RBB6" is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, the process proceeds.

Specifically, when the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” is won, the bonus transfer combination “RBB1F (RT1)” is selected. When the bonus transfer combination “RBB2” is won, the bonus transfer combination “RBB3” is selected. If you win, you get "RBB3F (RT1)", if you win the bonus transfer role "RBB4" you get "RBB4F (RT1)", if you win the bonus transfer role "RBB5" you get "RBB5F (RT2)", When the bonus transfer combination “RBB6” is won, the transfer is made to “RBB6F (RT2)”.
The probability of winning the replay combination in the bonus internal state is set higher than in the normal game state.

The prescribed number of bonus internal states is two or three, and when the max bet switch 34 is operated, three medals are inserted.

In addition, it is advantageous when the player is staying in “RBB1F (RT1)”, “RBB2F (RT1)”, “RBB3F (RT1)”, and “RBB4F (RT1)” among the bonus internal states, and the number of bets is 3 The processing regarding the section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery or the pushing order navigation is not performed, and similarly when the bet number is 2, the processing regarding the advantageous section is not performed.
In addition, when the number of bets is 3 while staying in “RBB5F (RT2)” and “RBB6F (RT2)” in the bonus internal state, processing relating to the advantageous zone, for example, advantageous zone transition lottery and pushing order Navigation is performed, but if the number of bets is two, the process regarding the advantageous section is not performed.

Also, in the bonus internal state “RBB5F (RT2)” and “RBB6F (RT2)”, when the bet number is 3, the reel control means 220 prevents the corresponding symbol combination from being stopped and displayed on the activated line 86. Is set to.
However, when the number of bets is two, the corresponding symbol combination is set to be stop displayable on the activated line 86 by the reel control means 220, but as shown in FIG. In the states "RBB5F (RT2)" and "RBB6F (RT2)", the winning group "HZ (miss)" is not included in the lottery, and other winning groups are always winning, and reel control Since the means 220 performs the pull-in control by giving priority to the small winning combination and the replay rather than the symbols 61 corresponding to the bonus shifting combinations “RBB5” and “RBB6” (so-called small winning combination priority control, replay priority control), bonus transfer Since the symbol combination of the combinations “RBB5” and “RBB6” is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, when the bonus internal state “RBB5F (RT2)” or “RBB6F (RT2)” is once entered, It is set so as not to shift to another gaming state.

(Bonus game state)
The bonus game state is controlled by the bonus game state control means 253, and in the present embodiment, the bonus transfer combinations “RBB1” to “RBB6” (see FIG. 11) are won, and the bonus transfer combinations “RBB1” to “RBB6” are selected. When the symbol combination corresponding to “” is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, the process proceeds.
The winning probability for the replay combination in the bonus game state is set to "0".

In the present embodiment, the bonus game state is "RBB1" which can be transferred when the bonus transfer combination "RBB1" is won, and "RBB2" which can be transferred when the bonus transfer combination "RBB2" is won, bonus transfer "RBB3", which can be transferred when the winning combination "RBB3" is won, "RBB4" which can be transferred when the bonus transferring winning combination "RBB4" is won, and transferable when "bonus transferring winning combination "RBB5" is won The “RBB5” is provided with “RBB6” that can be transferred when the bonus transfer combination “RBB6” is won.

As described above, in the bonus game states “RBB5” and “RBB6”, since the corresponding symbol combination is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86 in the bonus internal state, the bonus transition combination is made in the normal game state. It is a state in which the transition is made only when the symbol combination corresponding to the game selected in “RBB5” and “RBB6” is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86.

Here, "RBB1" to "RBB4" are finished by paying out medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, 36 medals, and "RBB5" and "RBB6" are paying out medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, 5 medals. finish.
Then, after the bonus game state ends, the game state shifts to the normal game state.

Further, when the player is staying in the bonus game states “RBB1” to “RBB4” and the number of bets is three, the process related to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery or the pushing order navigation is not performed.
In the bonus game states “RBB1” to “RBB4”, since the specified number is 3, the number of bets is 2, so that the player cannot play.

Further, when the player is staying in the bonus game states “RBB5” and “RBB6” and the number of bets is two, the process related to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery or the pushing order navigation is not performed.
Note that the bonus game states “RBB5” and “RBB6” have a prescribed number of two, and therefore a game cannot be played when the number of bets is three.

(Explanation of advantageous section using FIG. 17)
As shown in FIG. 17, when the stop switch 50 is operated in the pushing order and the winning push winning combination is won, the player is not informed of the pushing order. It is possible to move from the "non-advantageous section", and when the stop switch 50 is operated in the predetermined pushing order by the hand lottery, when the winning push winning combination is won, the pushing order is given to the player. There is an "advantageous section" that can be notified.

The “non-advantageous section” is a section excluding the “advantageous section”.
In the present embodiment, from the “non-advantageous section” to the “advantageous section”, in the case where the winning combination is predetermined, the gaming state is “RT0” and the number of bets is three as shown in FIG. , Winning group “NXP1”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM”, “ATA1” to “ATA12”, from “non-advantageous section” to “advantageous section” The advantageous section transition lottery is performed, and the advantageous section transition lottery is selected to make a transition.

When the gaming state is “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F) and the bet number is 3, no winning lot transition result lottery will be performed regardless of which winning group wins the winning lottery result. I am trying.

When the gaming state is “RT2” (RBB5F, RBB6F) and the number of bets is three, the winning group “NXP1”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM”, When "ATA1" to "ATA12" are won, an advantageous section transition lottery from "non-advantageous section" to "advantageous section" is performed, and the advantageous section transition lottery is selected to make a transition.

Also, when the number of bets is 2, regardless of whether the gaming state is RT0, RT1 or RT2, the advantageous section transition lottery will not be performed regardless of which winning group wins the winning lottery result. I have to.

Here, in the gaming state “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), the advantageous section transition lottery is not selected regardless of whether the bet number is three or two, so that the player has the gaming state “RT1”. "(RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), so as not to shift to "RT0" in the normal game state, as described above, by operating the single bet switch 35 twice, to "RT2" (RBB5F, RBB6F) You will play as you move.

In the present embodiment, the winning probability of the advantageous section transition lottery is set to a high probability, and is set so as to shift to the advantageous section in several games of the non-advantageous section.
In addition, the "non-advantageous section" is not limited to the case where the "advantageous section" is transitioned by winning the advantageous section transition lottery that is performed when a predetermined combination is won by the role lottery. When a predetermined winning combination is won, the player may shift to the advantageous section without performing the advantageous section transition lottery.

Further, in the present embodiment, the section notification lamp 90 is set to turn on after the so-called third stop of the game that wins the predetermined winning combination that triggers the transition to the advantageous section.
It should be noted that the lighting of the section notification lamp 90 is not limited to the above case, and in other cases, for example, it may be turned on at the time of transition to the first AT state described later.

(Advantageous section)
The “advantageous section” is a section that is more advantageous to the player than the “non-advantageous section”, and includes an “advantageous section normal state” and an “AT state”.

In addition, the advantageous section may be provided with an additional state in which the number of games in the AT state is additionally drawn or not.

Here, the section advantageous to the player is, for example, in the non-advantageous section, when the stop switch 50 is operated in the pushing order predetermined by the winning lottery, the winning order winning combination is won. Even in such a case, the game is changed from a state in which it was impossible to inform the player of the pushing order to a possible state, and an AT state which is not executed in the non-advantageous section is executed. It is an advantageous section for people.
Therefore, it is not necessary for the player to be advantageous throughout the “advantageous section”, and it may be that the player is not advantageous for a part of the “advantageous section”.

Further, when a predetermined upper limit number of games, for example, 1500 games have been exhausted after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, it is determined that the upper limit number of games of the advantageous section has been reached, and the advantageous section is shifted to the non-advantageous section. I have to.
Therefore, the main control board 200 has an upper limit game number counter, and counts the number of exhausted games after the transition to the advantageous section in order to determine whether or not the predetermined upper limit game number (1500 games) is reached.

In addition, even after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section and before the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 games) is exhausted (before reaching the upper limit number of games of the advantageous section), When a payout (for example, so-called MY2400 coins) is obtained, this is used as a trigger to shift from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section even before the maximum number of games is exhausted.
Therefore, in the main control board 200, in order to determine whether or not a predetermined predetermined number of coins (so-called MY2400) has been reached, the number of coins to be paid in and the number of coins to be paid out after shifting to the advantageous section are counted. ..

Further, at the time of shifting to the advantageous section, (1) normal state type lottery, (2) ceiling game number lottery, and (3) benefit lottery are performed.
Note that the lottery performed at the time of transition to the advantageous section is not limited to the above-mentioned one, and among the above-mentioned ones, a lottery that is not executed may be performed.
Further, the lottery performed at the time of transition to the advantageous section is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the present invention is not limited to this.

(1) In the normal state type lottery, it is determined by lottery which one of the "low probability", "normal", "high certainty", and "super high certainty" to be described later in the advantageous zone normal state. is there.

(2) The ceiling game number lottery determines the ceiling game number by lottery.
In the present embodiment, the value obtained by multiplying the numerical value determined by lottery from the numerical values of “1”, “3”, and “6” by “111” is the ceiling game number.
For example, when “1” is determined by lottery, the “111” game is the ceiling game number.

(3) In the benefit lottery, benefits to be won in the advantageous section are determined first.
Here, the benefit is the type of the first AT state described later, and includes “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, and “REG”.
Here, as will be described later, the "different color BIG" is more advantageous to the player than the "REG" because the expected value of payout of medals is higher, and the "same color BIG" is more advantageous than the "different color BIG". Since the probability of the lottery for shifting to the 2AT state is high, it is set advantageously for the player.

When the “same color BIG” and the “different color BIG” are determined by lottery, a lottery is performed to determine whether a more advantageous type can be obtained than the “same color BIG” and the “different color BIG”.
Specifically, maintaining "same color BIG" and "different color BIG", changing to "upper same color BIG" or "upper different color BIG" which is more advantageous to the player than "same color BIG" or "different color BIG", Is drawn.

(Advantageous section normal state)
The advantageous zone normal state is an example of the first state, and is a state excluding a special state such as the “AT state” in the “advantageous zone”.
The advantageous section normal state is a state in which the non-advantageous section normal state of the non-advantageous section is continued, and the same effect as the non-advantageous section normal state is performed by the effect control means 320. That is, the difference between the non-advantageous section normal state and the advantageous section normal state is the difference between the staying section and the “non-advantageous section” or the “advantageous section”.

The advantageous zone normal state is provided with “low accuracy”, “normal”, “high accuracy”, and “ultra high accuracy” with different expectations for the transition to the CZ state described later.
Here, the degree of expectation of transition to the CZ state is such that "low probability" is the lowest and "ultra high probability" is the highest.
That is, in the aura transition lottery to be described later, the winning probability of the “aura” is set to have the highest “ultra high probability” and the lowest “low probability”. On the contrary, the winning probability of "Gase Omen" is set such that "super high probability" is the lowest and "low probability" is the highest.

In the advantageous zone normal state, (1) first AT state transition lottery, (2) normal state type promotion lottery 1, (3) precursor transition lottery, (4) CZ main precursor game lottery, (5) CZ gasse precursor The number of games lottery and (6) normal state type promotion lottery 2 are performed.
The lottery performed in the normal state of the advantageous section is not limited to the above-described one, and there may be a lottery among the above-mentioned ones that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the advantageous zone normal state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

(1) In the first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state), a predetermined winning combination, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “WM”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”. This is carried out in the case where the player wins the prize, and is drawn by lot whether or not to shift to the first AT state.
In the present lottery, in the present embodiment, the higher the set value of the winning probability of the part lottery, the higher the winning probability, and the lower the set value, the lower the winning probability is set.However, the present invention is not limited to this. Alternatively, the lottery may be performed with a uniform winning probability regardless of the set value.

When winning in the main lottery, the first AT state main predictive game number lottery is performed, and the number of games in the predictive state in which the predictive effect of whether to shift to the first AT state is performed is determined by lottery, Upon digestion, the first AT state is entered.

(2) The normal state type promotion lottery 1 is performed when the first AT state transition lottery (during the advantage zone normal state) is not won, and the advantage zone digestion game number in the game is a predetermined value, for example, , "111", "222", "333", and "444", whether or not to promote one stage from "low accuracy" to "normal", "normal" to "high accuracy", etc. Regardless of which stage the stage is, whether or not to be promoted to "ultra high accuracy" is determined by a lottery.
Then, the state of the advantageous section normal state changes according to the lottery result.

(3) The sign transfer lottery is performed at a timing after the lottery in the normal state type promotion lottery 1, and whether or not to move to the “main sign” and “gase sign” described later is determined by the lottery.
Here, the “main omen” is a state in which the transition to the CZ state (chance zone state) has been determined, and the “gase omen” is a state in which the transition to the CZ state has not been determined.
Therefore, the precursor transition lottery is also a transition lottery to the CZ state.
The precursory transition lottery is not limited to being performed at a timing after the lottery in the normal state type promotion lottery 1, and may be performed before the lottery in the normal state type promotion lottery 1.

(4) The CZ main sign game number lottery is a lottery that is performed when the “main sign” is selected in the precursor transfer lottery, and determines the number of games of the main sign by lottery.
By exhausting the number of games, the precursor is shifted to the CZ state as described later.

(5) The CZ gaze predictor game number lottery is a lottery that is performed when the “gase predictor” is selected in the predictive transition lottery, and determines the number of games of the predictive gaze by lottery.
By exhausting the number of games, the warning sign shifts to the advantageous section normal state, as will be described later.

(6) In the normal state type promotion lottery 2, there is a case in which it is decided to shift to the “predatory sign” in the precursor transition lottery, and a “miss” case in which neither the “predictive sign” nor the “pretentive sign” is determined. This is a lottery performed, and in the present embodiment, when a winning combination predetermined by the winning combination lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM” is won In addition, it is decided by lottery whether or not to promote one stage from "low accuracy" to "normal", "normal" to "high accuracy", and "high accuracy" to "ultra high accuracy" in the advantageous section normal state. Is.
If the current state of the advantageous section normal state is "ultra-high accuracy", it is not necessary to do the main lottery, but it will not be done, but regardless of the result of the main lottery, "ultra-high accuracy" should be maintained. You can

(Old state)
The omen state is a state in which a stirrer production is performed to inform that there is a possibility of shifting to the CZ state during the number of games determined by the CZ main omen game number lottery and the CZ gaze omen game number lottery.
Then, by consuming the number of games determined by the lottery for the "predictive state," the "predictive state" transitions to the "CZ state", and if the "pronouncement state" occurs, the "favorable section normal state" Move to.

Further, in the warning sign, the above-described first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) is performed.
The lottery performed in the omen state is not limited to the above.

(CZ state)
The CZ state is an example of the first state, is a state in which the game is executed for a predetermined number of games, for example, 20 games, and has a higher degree of expectation of shifting to the first AT state than the advantageous section normal state. Specifically, in the state where the winning probability of the transition lottery to the first AT state (first AT state transition lottery (during CZ state)) is set higher than that of the first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous zone normal state) is there.
It is not limited to the case where the winning probability is set to be high, and it may be possible to obtain a large number of times of the lottery for transition to the first AT state.

In the CZ state, (1) first AT state transition lottery (during CZ state), (2) CZ point lottery, (3) first AT state transition lottery (points), (4) benefit rewriting lottery (first AT state transition) Time), and (5) Benefit rewriting type lottery.
The lottery performed in the CZ state is not limited to the above-mentioned one, and among the above-mentioned ones, a lottery not executed may be performed.
The lottery performed in the CZ state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the present invention is not limited to this.

(1) The first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state) is a lottery that is started from the 11th game after the 10th game is exhausted after the start of the CZ state and determines whether or not to transit to the first AT state. In the embodiment, the winning combination is performed when a winning combination is selected in advance, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2” is won.

Here, by performing the main lottery from the 11th game in the CZ state, a predetermined effect, for example, a continuous effect over a plurality of games can be executed for 10 games after the start of the CZ state, so that 10 games can be executed. When the transition to the first AT state is decided in between, the production is prevented from ending midway.

When it is determined by the main lottery that the state should be shifted to the first AT state (in the case of winning), the next game is shifted to the first AT state.
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case of transitioning from the next game to the first AT state, and the transition may be performed after the CZ state is completed. In such a case, after the start of the CZ state, the lottery may be conducted without waiting for the completion of 10 games.

(2) The CZ point lottery is a lottery performed when the transition to the first AT state is not decided (in the case of losing) by the first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state), and the CZ point to be acquired, for example, 0 points, 1 point, 2 points, 3 points, 4 points are determined by lottery.
Then, when a predetermined CZ point is obtained, the first AT state is entered.

In addition, in the CZ point lottery, the lottery for determining whether or not to obtain the CZ points is not performed, and the CZ points to be obtained are determined by the lottery. However, by setting 0 points as the lottery target, whether or not the CZ points are obtained. It is a concept that includes lottery.
Therefore, when 0 points are not included in the lottery target of the CZ point lottery, the lottery for determining whether or not to obtain the CZ points may be performed prior to the CZ point lottery.

(3) The first AT state transition lottery (points) is a lottery for determining whether or not to shift to the first AT state based on the CZ points obtained by the CZ point lottery in the last game in the CZ state.
The more CZ points that have been acquired, the easier it is to decide to shift to the first AT state.

If it is decided by this lottery to shift to the 1st AT state, it is shifted from the next game to the 1st AT state, and if it is not decided to shift to the 1st AT state, it is decided from the next game that the advantageous section is normal. Transition to the state.

(4) In the benefit rewriting lottery (at the time of transition to the first AT state), when the predetermined CZ points for shifting to the first AT state are obtained by the above-mentioned CZ point lottery, the first AT state performed in the last game of the CZ state When the transition to the first AT state is determined by the transition lottery (points), the lottery is performed when the transition to the first AT state is determined, and the lottery is performed to determine whether or not to rewrite the benefit determined by the above-described benefit lottery.

(5) The benefit rewriting type lottery is performed when it is decided to rewrite the benefit by the benefit rewriting lottery (at the time of transition to the first AT state), and the rewriting to “same color BIG” or “different color BIG” is performed. It

Here, in the case where the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is "same color BIG", it may be rewritten to "different color BIG" which is more disadvantageous to the player than "same color BIG" in the main rewrite lottery.
In addition, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is “upper same color BIG”, the rewrite lottery may be rewritten to “different color BIG” which is more disadvantageous to the player than “upper same color BIG”.
In addition, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is “different color BIG”, it may be rewritten to “upper same color BIG” which is more advantageous to the player than “different color BIG” in the main rewriting lottery.
As described above, since it is not always necessary to rewrite to an advantageous state, it becomes possible to throb until the end of the CZ state.

(AT state)
The “AT state” is a state that is more advantageous to the player than the “non-advantageous section”. When the "AT state" is entered, as a notification effect for assisting the winning of a predetermined winning combination, a game (AT) in which the pressing order of the winning combination is notified (press order navigation) is started, and the notified pressing is started. By operating the stop switch 50 in order, it is possible to stop and display the combination of the symbols of the winning small winning combination and the re-playing combination. Therefore, a predetermined number of medals corresponding to the established small winning combination are paid out.

"AT state" is to win the above-mentioned AT transition lottery (first AT state transition lottery (during advantageous zone normal state), first AT state transition lottery (during CZ state), first AT state transition lottery (point)), This is a state in which the CZ points acquired by the CZ point lottery reach a predetermined CZ point, and the CZ points are transferred.

Further, in the “AT state”, the number of games whose counting is started after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section reaches the number of games (666 games or the like) determined by the ceiling game number lottery described above (so-called). I am trying to make a transition depending on the ceiling.
After the "AT state" is completed, the non-advantageous section normal state is entered.

In the present embodiment, the “AT state” includes “first AT state”, “AT rank determination zone”, “second AT state”, and “third AT state”.
It should be noted that the states included in the “AT state” are not limited to those described above, and other states may be included.

(First AT state)
The first AT state is an example of the first state, and in the present embodiment, “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “upper same color BIG”, “upper different color BIG”, and “REG” are provided.
It should be noted that an example of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, and may be a non-AT state (a state that is not the AT state) capable of shifting to the “AT state” with a high probability, that is, a chance zone. Further, when the chance zone is an example of the first state in this way, the above-mentioned “CZ state” is not a “CZ state” to the AT state but a state in which it is possible to move to the chance zone with high probability, so to speak, “ It becomes the CZ state of the chance zone”.

Further, an example of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, but may be another state in the AT state, such as the second AT state or the third AT state.
Further, the example of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, and may be of any type as long as the transition lottery to the second AT state in which the continuous lottery as an example of the second state is performed is performed. Therefore, it can be said that it is the second AT state transition lottery state.

In addition, at the start of the first AT state, a so-called freeze for stopping the progress of the game is executed, and the type of the first AT state (same color BIG, “different color BIG”, “upper same color BIG”, “upper different color BIG”, “REG” )), the reel effect is executed.
Here, in the reel effect executed according to the type of the first AT state, the reel effect predetermined for each type of the first AT state is executed, and the lottery probability predetermined for each type of the first AT state. Then, it is determined by lottery among a plurality of reel effects having different times and contents.
As a result, it becomes possible to provide game play such as guessing the type of the first AT state from the executed reel effect.

If the 1st AT state is won in the 2nd AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) or second AT state transition lottery (during REG), after the 1st AT state ends , After passing through the AT rank determination zone, the state shifts to the second AT state, but if not won, the state shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state after the end of the first AT state.

In the first AT state, in the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and upper different color BIG, the first half part that can be executed until the game value is acquired by a predetermined value and the predetermined number of games after the end of the first half part are consumed. And a second half part that can be executed until.

Here, "until the game value is obtained by a predetermined value" is a game value predetermined for the winning combination by the lottery, for example, a medal paid to the player when the corresponding symbols are prepared. Until the predetermined number of coins is obtained, or until the predetermined number of medals independent of the number of payouts is acquired.

As an example of obtaining the predetermined number of medals paid out to the player when the corresponding symbols are gathered, as shown in FIG. 12, for example, by winning a lottery, the winning group “WM” is won. However, when three symbols are paid out when the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, "+3" is obtained (see FIG. 8).
Also, similarly, by winning the winning combination by winning the winning combination group "NCH", and when the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, "+1" is given when one medal is paid out. (See FIG. 8).

Then, when the number of acquired medals reaches 60, the first half part ends and the second half part is started.
In the case of this example, it is possible to manage the game using the number of acquired coins based on the actually paid out medals.
In addition, as the management of the game using the number of acquired medals based on the actually paid out medals, when the difference between the number of inserted medals and the number of paid out medals reaches a predetermined number, for example 60, the first half part May be ended.

As an example of the case of the number of medals that does not depend on the number of paid-out coins, the winning combination groups “HZ”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, and “ALL2” were won by a lottery. In this case, that is, when there is no payout of medals or when the winning combination of one payout is won, it is stored as "-3" (the same number as the number of inserted coins) of the game value, and the winning group " If you win "NXP1", "NXP2", or "WM", that is, if you win a replay combination and a combination with three payouts, it is stored as "0" game value and the winning combination is achieved. When the group “PZ” and “ATA1” to “ATA12” are won, it is stored that the gaming value of “+7” is acquired.

When the number of medals stored as acquired reaches 60, the first half part ends and the second half part is started.
In the case of this example, the same management as in the case of being executable until the difference between the number of inserted medals and the number of paid-out medals reaches a predetermined number is performed without counting the number of actually paid out medals. It becomes possible.
Further, the present invention is not limited to the case of performing management equivalent to the difference number as in this example, and the difference number is used as it is, and when the difference number reaches 60 (so-called MY60), the first half part is finished. Is also good.

Further, in the above-mentioned example, regardless of whether the medals have actually been paid out, it is stored as a game value that is substantially equal to the paid-out number, but in the case of the number of medals that does not depend on the paid-out number. As another example, the game value of a predetermined number may be stored regardless of the number of payouts, such as three rare combinations and one small combination.

Here, in the present embodiment, the “same color BIG” can be executed, for example, until the first half part obtains 60 medals, and can be executed until the second half part consumes 10 games.
The "different color BIG" can be executed, for example, until the first half part obtains 60 medals, and the second half part can execute the game 10 times.
The “upper same color BIG” can be executed until, for example, 60 medals are acquired, and can be executed until the second half part consumes 10 games.
The “upper color BIG” can be executed, for example, until 60 medals are acquired, and can be executed until the second half part consumes 10 games.

It should be noted that the “same color BIG” has a higher winning probability than the “different color BIG” in the second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the start of the first AT state), which will be described later, even if the ending condition is the same. Also, since the winning probability of the second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the end of the first half part) is set high, the probability of the second AT state transition lottery becomes high, which is an advantageous state.

In addition, “upper same color BIG” and “upper different color BIG” are the second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the start of the first AT state), second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the end of the first half part), and 2AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) winning probability is set higher than "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "same color BIG", "different color BIG" It is in a more advantageous state than "BIG".

It should be noted that "REG" has no distinction between the first half part and the second half part, and is completed by acquiring 40 medals, but "REG" also has the first half part and the second half part. You can
Further, in the present embodiment, the ending condition of the first half part is managed by the number of medals acquired, but the present invention is not limited to this, and may be the above-mentioned difference number.

Further, in the first half part, it is possible to add the number of games that can be executed in the second half part.
Specifically, as will be described later, the number of games in the second half part is increased by lottery (during the first half part), and the number of games in the latter half part is added by the lottery in the latter half part (during the latter half part). A lottery is made to decide whether or not to add.

Further, the second half part is set to have a higher expectation of transition to the second AT state than the first half part.
Specifically, as described above, as a result of adding the number of games in the second half part, there is a high possibility that the player can play the game longer than in the first half part, and a second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color) described later is made. Since the number of lottery of BIG, upper different color BIG) increases, when the degree of expectation of transition to the second AT state becomes high, or in addition to the second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the start of the first AT state) described later, The second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) will also be done, and the second half of the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) There is a high possibility that the lottery probability of transition to the 2AT state is high.

Further, regardless of the lottery result of the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), originally, the lottery probability of the second AT state transition lottery (in the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is Since the latter half part is set higher, the latter half part is set to have a higher expectation of transition to the second AT state than the former half part.

Further, in the present embodiment, the first half part in the first AT state is the number of medals to be acquired, and the second half part is the number of games in which the transition period attitude to the second AT state is high.
This means that if the first half part is in a state where the transition period attitude to the second AT state is high and the second half part is in a low state, after the end of the first half part, the game with low expectation of transition to the second AT state continues. In addition, if the number of games in the second half part is added, the game with a lower transition period attitude to the second AT state becomes longer, and the interest of the player in the second half part is deteriorated. This is because there are points. Also, when managing the first half part with the number of games and the second half part with the number of medals acquired in the game with a high transitional attitude to the second AT state, when managing each, depending on the result of the part lottery of the second half part, the length of the second half part This is because there is a problem in that the difference between the numbers becomes too large and the game balance may be lost.
Also, if you manage both the first half part and the second half part by the number of medals acquired, the difference in the length of the second half part will be too large depending on the result of the lottery, and both the first half part and the second half part will be played. If the numbers are managed, the difference in the number of medals obtained may become too large depending on the result of the winning lottery, and the game balance may be lost. Therefore, this is not used in the present embodiment.

Further, in the first AT state, (1) image pattern lottery, (2) second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the time of first AT state start), (3) second half part game number increase lottery (during first half part), (4 ) Second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), (5) Second half part game number increase lottery (during the second half part), (6) Second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, Upper rank different color BIG), (7) Second AT state transition lottery (during REG), and (8) Stage promotion lottery (during REG).

The lottery performed in the first AT state is not limited to the above-described one, and among the above-mentioned ones, a lottery that is not executed may be performed.
The lottery performed in the first AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the present invention is not limited to this.

(1) The image pattern lottery is performed at the start of the first AT state, and the pattern for notifying the set value is determined by lottery.
As a pattern for notifying the set value, a pattern indicating that the set value is an odd number, a pattern indicating that the set value is an even number, a pattern notifying that the set value is 2 or more, and a set value of 5 Alternatively, a pattern for notifying that the number is 6 is included, but is not limited to this.

In addition, the notification of the set value is executed immediately after the main lottery, but the present invention is not limited to this and may be executed at another timing, for example, when the notification execution lottery is performed and the lottery is won, or the first AT. It may be executed at the end of the state, executed in the middle of the first AT state, or the like.

(2) The second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the start of the first AT state) is performed at the start of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and upper different color BIG, and a second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, This is to perform a lottery as to whether or not to increase the probability of the transitional lottery to the second AT state performed in different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and upper different color BIG).

(3) The second half part game number addition lottery (during the first half part) is performed in the first half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG, and lottery on whether to add the number of games of the second half part It is something to do.
Here, the number of games to be added is determined by lottery from 5, 10, and 20.
In the present embodiment, the winning combination is performed by winning a predetermined winning combination group by a lottery, and the winning probability of the number of games to be added is set to be different for each winning combination group.
In addition, it is not limited to the case where the winning combination is performed by winning a predetermined winning combination group by the role lottery, and each game may be performed, or the added game regardless of the winning combination group that is won. The winning probabilities of the numbers may be the same.

(4) Second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) is to add the number of games in the second half part game number at the end of the first half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG If the transition to the second AT state is not decided by the lottery of the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) which will be described later, Similar to the second AT state transition lottery probability increasing lottery (at the time of starting the first AT state), the second AT state transition lottery (during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) This is a lottery for whether or not to increase the probability of.

(5) The second half part game number addition lottery (during the second half part) is performed during the second half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG, and whether or not to add the second half part game number Is to do.
In the present embodiment, it is carried out and added when a winning combination predetermined by a winning combination, for example, a winning combination group "NCH", "WM", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB" is won. The number of games is determined by lottery from among 5, 10, and 20, which is the same as the number of games in the second half part game number addition lottery (in the first half part) described above.

The number of games to be added is not limited to the case where the predetermined combination is performed by winning the predetermined combination by the role lottery, and the number of games to be added is the latter half part game number plus lottery (first half). It is not limited to the same case as (in the part), and may be more or less than the number of games in the latter half part game number addition (in the first half part).

(6) Second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is performed during same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG, and shifts to second AT state. It is a lottery to decide whether or not.
In the present embodiment, it is performed when a winning combination predetermined by a winning combination lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2” is won.
In addition, as described above, the winning probability of the main lottery is, when winning the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state) and the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), It has a higher probability than if you did not win.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case where a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery, and each game may be executed.
When the final lottery is won, after the latter half part is finished, the second rank AT state is entered through the AT rank determination zone.

Further, in the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG), even when it is decided to shift to the second AT state, the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, During the upper color BIG, it is continuously executed, and in this case, it is a lottery as to whether or not to promote the stage in the second AT state described later.
That is, when the second AT state transition lottery (within the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and upper different color BIG) is won for the first time, the transition to the second AT state is confirmed and used when the second AT state is transitioned. When the stage to be set is set to "1" and the second time is won, the stage in the second AT state is promoted from "1" to "2", and when the third time is won, the stage in the second AT state is " I am trying to be promoted from "2" to "3".

Note that the player may be notified of the stage stage to be used when the second AT state determined by the main lottery has been entered.
If the player is informed of the stage stage, the player is paid attention to whether the stage in which the advantage of the second AT state is changed is promoted before the transition to the second AT state, and the player is in the second AT state. You can improve your interest even before the beginning of.

When the second AT state transition lottery (within the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is won for the first time, the above-mentioned second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), the second AT The probability increased in the state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) returns to the original probability, and the lottery for whether or not to promote the stage in the second AT state is performed with the original probability of not increasing.

(7) The second AT state transition lottery (during REG) is performed during REG, and a lottery is performed to determine whether or not to transition to the second AT state.
In the present embodiment, a winning combination determined in advance by a winning combination, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1”, “NXP2”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM” is won. If done.

In addition, of the above-mentioned predetermined winning combinations, for example, when the game selected in the winning combination groups “NXP1” and “NXP2” determines to shift to the second AT state, the stage in the second AT state described later is set. It is set to "3" and is set to "1" when the transition to the second AT state is decided in the game in which another winning combination is won.
In case of winning the main lottery, after the "REG" is finished, the second rank AT state is entered through the AT rank determination zone.

(8) The stage promotion lottery (during REG) is performed during the REG whose transition to the second AT state has been decided by the above-mentioned second AT state transition lottery (during REG), and whether or not to promote the stage in the second AT state. It is a lottery.
If you win this lottery, you will be promoted to "2" if the stage is "1" and to "3" if the stage is "2".

(AT rank determination zone)
The AT rank determination zone is an example of a specific state, and is a state in which transition to the second AT state is made before transition to the second AT state in the first AT state. This is a state in which the continuation rate of the continuous lottery as to whether or not to continue the second AT state to be executed is determined.

Here, the continuation rate of the continuous lottery as to whether or not to continue the second AT state is determined by the rank. For example, rank 0 has a continuation rate of 40%, rank 1 has a continuation rate of 45%, and rank 2 has a continuation rate. 50%, Rank 3 is 55% continuous, Rank 4 is 60% continuous, Rank 5 is 65% continuous, Rank 6 is 70% continuous, Rank 7 is 75% continuous, Rank 8 is 80% continuous. Rank 9 is set to a continuation rate of 85%, and rank 10 is set to a continuation rate of 90%. Then, in the AT rank determination zone, the continuation rate of the continuous lottery is determined by determining the rank by lottery as described later.
The continuation rate is not limited to the above example.

The number of games in the AT rank determination zone is from 11 games when the game shifts to the AT rank determination zone for the first time after shifting from the non-advantageous zone to the advantage zone, and from 11 games when it shifts to the AT rank determination zone after the second time. It is set to 7 short games.
That is, the number of games in the first AT rank determination zone, which has been decided to shift from the first AT state to the second AT state, is 11 games, and if the continuous lottery described later is not won or the pullback lottery is performed. The number of games to be played in the case where the game is moved to the AT rank determination zone after the second time by being determined to be returned to the second AT state by winning is seven games.
When the advantageous section is changed to the non-advantageous section and then the advantageous section is again changed, similarly, the first AT rank determination zone is set and 11 games are played.

In this embodiment, the AT rank determination zone is provided in the AT state to determine the continuation rate of the continuous lottery. However, the AT rank determination zone is not provided and the continuous lottery is continued in the first AT state or the second AT state. The rate may be determined.

Further, in the AT rank determination zone, (1) rank lottery and (2) rank promotion lottery (in the AT rank determination zone) are performed.

The lottery performed in the AT rank determination zone is not limited to the above-described one, and among the above-mentioned ones, a lottery that is not executed may be performed.
The lottery performed in the AT rank determination zone is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

(1) The rank lottery is performed at the start of the AT rank determination zone, and the rank for which the continuation rate is set is determined by lottery.
In the present embodiment, 0 to 3 of the above ranks of 0 to 10 are determined by lottery.
The ranks 4 to 10 are determined by a lottery by a rank promotion lottery (in the AT rank determination zone) described later.

Further, although the rank determined by the main lottery is notified to the player, the rank may not be notified.
When the player is informed of the rank, it is possible to improve the interest of the player even before the second AT state starts by letting the player pay attention to whether or not the rank in which the advantage of the second AT state changes is promoted. become able to.

(2) Rank promotion lottery (in the AT rank determination zone) is performed during the AT rank determination zone, and rank promotion lottery is performed to determine whether or not the rank determined by the rank lottery is promoted to a rank with a high continuation rate. Is.
In the present embodiment, the rank promotion lottery includes a case where the rank is promoted by one step and a case where the rank is promoted by two steps.
Further, when the rank is promoted by the main lottery, the player is notified of the fact that the rank has been promoted and the rank that has been promoted, but it may be omitted.

(Second AT state)
The second AT state is an example of the second state, and has a plurality of stages with different degrees of expectation of giving a benefit to the player.
Here, as will be described later, in the “privilege”, when an AT combination (winning combination group “ATA1” to “ATA12”) is won by a winning combination during the second AT state, the correct answer of the winning AT combination is given. It includes notifying the pushing order.
The "expectation level" includes a lottery probability of whether or not to give a privilege (a lottery probability of a navigation occurrence lottery described later).

The “stage” is provided in a plurality of stages, “1” to “3” in the present embodiment, and is a second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG) which is an example of the stage lottery described above. , BIG in different color).

The second AT state is a central state of the AT state, and the AT state may include only the second AT state.

The second AT state can be executed in a predetermined game section, 33 games in this embodiment, the normal effect of the second AT state is executed in the 29 games in the first half, and the second AT in the 4 games in the latter half. An effect for notifying that the number of games in the state is low and the result of the continuous lottery performed in the second AT state is executed.

In the second AT state, as will be described later, continuous lottery (second AT state continuous lottery 1, second AT state continuous lottery 2, second AT state continuous lottery 3) is performed at a continuation rate based on the rank, and the continuous lottery is won. If done, the second AT state is ended midway and the next game is shifted to the third AT state described later.
Therefore, the continuous lottery is also a transition lottery to the third AT state.
Then, after the end of the third AT state, the game section of the second AT state is reset, and the second AT state is not restarted from the first game, that is, from the game that has transitioned to the third AT state. , The second AT state is started from the beginning of a predetermined game section.

In addition, the second AT state started from the beginning, if the rank is promoted by the rank promotion lottery (rank promotion lottery 1, rank promotion lottery 2, rank promotion lottery 3) described below performed in the third AT state, If the stage is promoted by the promoted rank and stage promotion lottery (stage promotion lottery (during the first stage), stage promotion lottery (during the second stage)), the second AT state will start at the promoted stage. To be done.

Also, if you win the continuous lottery performed during the second AT state, the second AT state is ended and the state is changed to the third AT state, but the state is changed to the third AT state before the state is changed to the third AT state. The sign to be suggested to the player is executed after the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is executed.
Note that the second AT state may be shifted to the third AT state without executing this sign.

In addition, if the continuous lottery performed during the second AT state is not won, after the second AT state is over, after the predetermined sign for a certain period of time indicating the player to shift to the third AT state is reached, the stage is the highest. If the stage is not "1" which is the lower stage, that is, if the stage is "2" or "3", the stage is demoted by one stage, goes through the AT rank determination zone, and goes into the second AT state, When the stage is "1" which is the lowest stage, the non-advantageous section is shifted to the normal state.
That is, the numerical value indicating the stage of the stage also indicates the number of times the second AT state can be executed.

Specifically, if the stage is "3", it is demoted to "2", the stage is set to "2" in the next second AT state, and "1" if the stage is "2". ", and the stage is set to "1" in the next second AT state.
Then, as will be described later, as the stage is demoted, the probability of notifying the player of the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination (the winning probability of the navigation generation lottery) decreases as a privilege.

In addition, when the stage is the lowest stage, "1" is not limited to the case of shifting to the non-advantageous section normal state, and shifts to a pullback state in which a pullback lottery is performed to determine whether to shift to the second AT state again. You may do it.
In this case, by winning the pull-back lottery, it will move to the second AT state of stage "1" through the AT rank determination zone, and if not win the pull-back lottery, it will shift to the non-advantageous section normal state. ..

In the second AT state, (1) third AT state transition lottery, (2) third AT state type lottery 1, (3) third AT state type lottery 2, (4) navigation generation lottery, (5) second AT state continuation Lottery 1, (6) 2nd AT state continuous lottery 2, and (7) 2nd AT state continuous lottery 3 are carried out.

The lottery performed in the second AT state is not limited to the above-mentioned one, and there may be a lottery not executed among the above-mentioned ones.
The lottery performed in the second AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the present invention is not limited to this.

(1) The third AT state transition lottery is performed at the start of the second AT state, and after the end of the second AT state, it is determined by lottery whether or not to transit to the third AT state.

(2) The third AT state type lottery 1 is performed at the start of the second AT state, the stage is "1", the rank is 0 to 5, the AT digestion game number is a predetermined number of times, for example, 150 times or less, all the conditions are satisfied. This is a lottery carried out in this case, and it is decided by lottery whether or not to acquire the "special REG" as the type of the third AT state.

By winning the main lottery, the type of the third AT state is set to “special REG”.
Here, the "AT digestive game number" means the digestive game number after the AT rank determination zone, but may be the digestive game number after the first AT state.

(3) The third AT state type lottery 2 is performed at the start of the second AT state when the third AT state type lottery 1 described above is lost or the lottery conditions of the third AT state type lottery 1 are not satisfied. It determines the type.
Here, the types of the third AT state to be determined include “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, and “upper REG”, which will be described later.

Here, as will be described later, "upper REG" is more advantageous to the player than "reg" because it is easier to promote the rank by rank promotion point lottery and rank promotion lottery 2, and so on. Also, "different color BIG" is advantageous for the player because the expected value of payout of medals is higher, and "same color BIG" is ranked higher than "different color BIG" by rank promotion point lottery and rank promotion lottery 2. Has been set to be advantageous to the player because it is easy to promote.

(4) The navigation generation lottery is performed when the winning combination of the AT combination (winning combination group “ATA1” to “ATA12”) is achieved by the combination lottery during the second AT state, and based on the predetermined selection probability for each stage. Whether or not to notify the player of the correct answer pushing order of the winning AT role is determined by a lottery as a privilege.

For example, when the stage is "1", a lottery probability of 40% is set, when the stage is "2", the lottery probability of 60% is set, and when the stage is "3", 100% is set. The lottery probability of is set.
By winning this lottery, the pushing order of the correct answer of the AT combination is notified, and the player operates the stop switch 50 in accordance with the notified pushing order of the correct answer, so that the winning group “ATA1” to “ATA12”. Among the winning combinations included in the above, “AT_1” to “AT_6” are established (winning), and it is possible to obtain payout of 10 medals (see FIG. 8).
The notification of the correct pressing order of the AT combination is executed by the display device 84 and the payout amount display 88.
In addition, if the player does not win this lottery, the order of pushing the correct answer of the AT role is not notified.

Therefore, when the stage is “2” than when the stage is “1”, and when the stage is “3” than when the stage is “2”, it is easier to win the navigation generation lottery. The number of medals that can be acquired increases.

As described above, when the stage is “2” or “3” that is not “1” at the bottom, continuous lottery (second AT state continuous lottery 1, second AT state continuous lottery 2, second AT state continuous lottery 3) ), the stage is demoted by one stage and the second AT state is continued. Therefore, in the second AT state in which the one-stage stage is demoted, the winning probability of the navigation generation lottery is also reduced.
Therefore, it is possible to reduce the winning probability of the navigation generation lottery and continue the second AT state.

The lottery probability for each stage is not limited to the above example.

In addition, even when the navigation generation lottery is not won, the correct answer pushing order of the AT role may be notified.
For example, if the stage is "1", if the winning group "HZ" has been lost in the winning lottery, or if the navigation-generated lottery is not won, if is two consecutive times, the next AT role ( In the games won by the winning group “ATA1” to “ATA12”), the pushing order of correct answers is always notified.
In addition, if the stage is "2", if the winning group "HZ" has been won by the winning lottery, or if you do not win the navi-generated lottery, you will be informed of the correct push order in the next game. I am trying to do it.

(5) The second AT state continuation lottery 1 is performed in the first half 29 games of the second AT state, and is a continuous lottery for determining whether or not to continue the second AT state based on the rank.
In the present embodiment, the main lottery is carried out when a winning combination is selected in advance, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB” or “WM” is won. ..

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case where a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery, and each game may be executed.
When the player has won the continuous lottery, the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is predicted, and then the third AT state is entered.

(6) The second AT state continuous lottery 2 is a continuous lottery that is performed in addition to the second AT state continuous lottery 1 during the second AT state, and the winning combination is predetermined, for example, the winning combination group “NXP1”, When "NXP2", "PZ", and "ATA1" to "ATA12" are won, a continuous lottery is performed to determine whether or not to continue the second AT state based on the rank.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case where a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery, and each game may be executed.
When the player has won the continuous lottery, the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is predicted, and then the third AT state is entered.

(7) The second AT state continuous lottery 3 is a continuous lottery performed during the second AT state, and in the case of a loss in which the winning group “HZ” has been won by the role lottery, the second AT state based on the rank is continued. Whether or not it is a continuous lottery.
In the main lottery, if the winning group “HZ” is the first time, it is set so as to lose the continuous lottery. If the winning group “HZ” is consecutive, for example, if it is two consecutive times, three times It is set so that the continuous lottery may be won in cases such as consecutive runs.
When the player has won the continuous lottery, the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is predicted, and then the third AT state is entered.

(3rd AT state)
The 3rd AT state is an example of the 3rd state, and shifts by winning the continuous lottery (2nd AT state continuous lottery 1, 2nd AT state continuous lottery 2, 2nd AT state continuous lottery 3) performed in the 2nd AT state. As will be described later, the rank promotion lottery (rank promotion lottery 1, rank promotion lottery 2, rank promotion lottery 3) and whether the rank is promoted to a rank with a high continuation rate and the stage are expected A stage promotion lottery (stage promotion lottery (during the first stage), stage promotion lottery (during the second stage)) of whether or not to promote on a high stage is performed.
Then, after the end of the third AT state, the state shifts to the second AT state.

It should be noted that the example of the third state is not limited to the third AT state, and if it is a state in which a transition to the continuous lottery in the second AT state, which is an example of the second state, is made and a stage promotion lottery is performed, Regardless, the AT state may not be required as in the present embodiment. Therefore, it can be said that it is the second AT state stage promotion lottery state.

In the present embodiment, the third AT state includes “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “upper REG”, and “special REG”.
Here, the “same color BIG” can be executed until the first half part obtains 130 medals, for example, and can be executed until the second half part consumes one game.
Here, the "different color BIG" can be executed, for example, until the first half part obtains 130 medals, and it can be executed until the second half part consumes one game.
"REG" can be executed until the first half part acquires 50 medals, for example, and can be executed until the second half part consumes one game.
The "upper REG" can be executed, for example, until the first half part obtains 50 medals, and can be executed until the second half part consumes one game.
The “special REG” can be executed, for example, until the game is played 20 times.

The management of the ending condition of the first half part is similar to the management of the ending condition of the first half part in the first AT state described above, and may be managed not by the number of medals acquired but by the difference.

It should be noted that the “same color BIG” is in an advantageous state from the “different color BIG” because the winning probabilities of the rank promotion point lottery and the rank promotion lottery 2 to be described later are set to be higher even if the ending conditions are the same. Has become.

In addition, the “upper REG” is in an advantageous state because the winning probabilities of the rank promotion point lottery and the rank promotion lottery 2 described later are set to be higher than those of the “REG”.

At the start of the third AT state, a so-called freeze for stopping the progress of the game is executed, and the type of the third AT state (“same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “upper REG”, “special REG”) ), the reel effect is executed.
Here, in the reel effect executed according to the type of the third AT state, the reel effect predetermined for each type of the third AT state is executed, and the lottery probability predetermined for each type of the third AT state. Then, it is determined by lottery among a plurality of reel effects having different times and contents.
As a result, it is possible to provide game play such as guessing the type of the third AT state from the executed reel effect.

In the third AT state, (1) stage promotion lottery (during the first stage), (2) stage promotion lottery (during the second stage), (3) rank promotion point lottery, (4) rank promotion lottery 1, ( 5) Rank promotion lottery 2, (6) Rank promotion lottery 3, (7) Third AT state stock lottery, (8) Special REG game number increase lottery 1, (9) Special REG game number increase point lottery, (10) Special A lottery 2 is carried out in which the number of REG games is increased.

The lottery performed in the third AT state is not limited to the above-mentioned one, and among the above-mentioned ones, a lottery that is not executed may be performed.
The lottery performed in the third AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the present invention is not limited to this.

(1) Stage promotion lottery (during the first stage) is performed during the third AT state, the current stage is "1", and the type of the third AT state is "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG". , Is a lottery performed in the case of “upper REG”, and is a stage promotion lottery for determining whether or not to promote the stage.

By winning the lottery, the stage will be promoted from "1" to "2".
In addition, in the present embodiment, the main lottery is performed when the winning combination is predetermined, for example, when the winning combination groups “NXP1” and “NXP2” are won, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be performed when a winning combination is won, or regardless of the result of the winning lottery.

(2) Stage promotion lottery (during the second stage) is performed during the third AT state, the current stage is "2", and the type of the third AT state is "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG". , Is a lottery performed in the case of “upper REG”, and is a stage promotion lottery for determining whether or not to promote the stage.

By winning the lottery, the stage will be promoted from "2" to "3".
In addition, in the present embodiment, the main lottery is performed when the winning combination is predetermined, for example, when the winning combination groups “NXP1” and “NXP2” are won, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be performed when a winning combination is won, or regardless of the result of the winning lottery.

(3) Rank promotion point lottery is performed during the third AT state, and is a lottery performed when the type of the third AT state is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “upper REG”, This is a lottery for determining whether or not to obtain the rank promotion points used in the rank promotion lottery 1 described later.

Here, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the main lottery is set to be different depending on the type of the third AT state.
For example, “same color BIG” is set higher than “different color BIG”, and “upper REG” is set higher than “REG”.
The winning probability is not limited to be different depending on the type of the third AT state, and the lottery may be performed with the winning probability irrespective of the type of the third AT state.

(4) Rank promotion lottery 1 is performed in the final game of the number part of the type of the third AT state is "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", "upper REG", and was obtained by rank promotion point lottery The rank promotion lottery is performed based on the rank promotion points.
Winning this lottery will raise your rank by one level.

(5) Rank promotion lottery 2 is performed when the type of the third AT state is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “upper REG”, and rank promotion points are predetermined points, for example, 7 It is a rank promotion lottery that is carried out when the point is reached.

Here, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the main lottery is set to be different depending on the type of the third AT state.
For example, “same color BIG” is set higher than “different color BIG”, and “upper REG” is set higher than “REG”.
The winning probability is not limited to be different depending on the type of the third AT state, and the lottery may be performed with the winning probability irrespective of the type of the third AT state.

Winning this lottery will raise your rank by one level.
When the rank is “10” and one of the lottery winners is won, one third AT state is stocked.
That is, after the number of games in the third AT state has been exhausted, the right to start the third AT state again can be obtained.

In the present embodiment, the main lottery is carried out when a winning combination is selected in advance, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB” or “WM” is won. ..
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case where a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery, and each game may be executed.

(6) Rank promotion lottery 3 is a rank promotion lottery performed during the latter half part of the third AT state.
In the main lottery, a case where the rank is promoted by one rank, a case where the rank is promoted by 2 ranks, and a case where the rank is promoted to rank 10 are selected by lottery.

(7) The third AT state stock lottery is a lottery performed in the latter half part of the third AT state, and determines whether or not to stock the right to shift to the third AT state by lottery.

By winning the lottery, the right to start the third AT state again can be obtained after the number of games in the third AT state has been exhausted.

(8) The special REG game number addition lottery 1 is started from the 11th game after 10 games have been exhausted after the start of the special REG, and it is decided by lottery whether or not the special REG game number is added.
By winning the main lottery, the number of special REG games is increased by, for example, 15 games.

(9) The special REG game number addition point lottery is a lottery that is performed when the special REG game number addition point lottery 1 is not won during the special REG, and is a lottery for whether or not to obtain additional points.

(10) The special REG game number increase lottery 2 is a lottery performed in the last game of the special REG, and the additional lottery is performed using the additional point acquired in the special REG game number increase point lottery. ..
In the remaining game of the special REG after winning the main lottery, the rank promotion lottery 2 described above is executed, and if the main lottery is won, one third AT state is stocked.
That is, after the number of games in the third AT state has been exhausted, the right to start the third AT state again can be obtained.
At the start of the third AT state again with such stock, a so-called freeze for stopping the progress of the game is executed, and the type of the third AT state (“same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “upper REG”, “ The reel effect is executed according to the "special REG").
Here, in the reel effect executed according to the type of the third AT state, the reel effect predetermined for each type of the third AT state is executed, and the lottery probability predetermined for each type of the third AT state. Then, it is determined by lottery among a plurality of reel effects having different times and contents.
As a result, it is possible to provide game play such as guessing the type of the third AT state from the executed reel effect.

In addition, the "AT state" may include, for example, a pullback state.
The pullback state is a case where it is not determined to continue the second AT state by continuous lottery, and when the stage is the lowest stage, the second AT state is transitioned to, and during a predetermined number of games, for example, three games, This is a state in which a pullback lottery is performed to determine whether or not the second AT state is to be performed again.

When the pullback state is provided, by winning the pullback lottery, the AT rank determination zone is passed, and the state again shifts to the second AT state.
Further, when the pull-back lottery is not won, the non-advantageous section shifts to the normal state.

In the present embodiment, the pull-back lottery is performed when a winning combination predetermined by the winning combination lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “WM”, “SPA”, or “SPB” is won. ..
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case where a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery, and each game may be executed.

(Explanation of the basic flow of the game using FIG. 18)
Based on the flowchart shown in FIG. 18, a general game control process executed by the main control board 200 for each game will be described.

In step S10, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the start switch 40 has been operated. Here, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has been operated, the main control board 200 sets a state in which the number of bets cannot be set. Then, it progresses to the following step S11. On the other hand, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has not been operated, the process returns to step S10.

As a premise of step S10, a bet amount setting process is performed. In this bet number setting process, it is determined whether or not a prescribed bet number is set as the bet number. Specifically, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the number of medals set as the number of bets for the game has reached the prescribed number of bets (three).

In step S11, the combination lottery means 210 performs a combination lottery process. At this time, the result of the winning combination lottery is transmitted from the main control board 200 to the sub control board 300. When the role lottery process is completed, the process proceeds to the next step S12.

In step S12, rotation fluctuation processing of the rotary reel 62 in the reel unit 60 is performed. When the main control board 200 operates the stop switch 50 corresponding to the rotating reel 62 after the rotating reels 62 reach a predetermined rotation speed, the reel control unit 220 causes the reels of the respective rotating reels 62 to rotate. The rotation is stopped. The pressing order corresponding to the winning combination of the stop switch 50 (left stop switch L, middle stop switch C, right stop switch R) at this time is stored in a predetermined storage area formed in the main control board 200, and It is read in the subsequent processing.

After all the stop operations are completed, the transmission stop means 270 of the main control board 200 transmits the rotation stop information of the full rotation reel 62 to the reception means 310 of the sub control board 300. Then, when the rotation fluctuation processing of all the rotating reels 62 is completed, the process proceeds to the next step S13.
In step S13, the stop symbol determination means 230 performs a determination process such as a winning or the like as to whether or not the combination of the symbols 61 on the activated line 86 has a predetermined combination of the symbols 61. Here, the data of the determination result of the determination processing such as winning is transmitted from the main control board 200 to the sub control board 300. Then, when the determination process ends, the process proceeds to the next step S14.

In step S14, the payout control unit 240 performs a payout process or the like corresponding to the determination result of the stop symbol determination unit 230.
