The slot machine 10 includes a front door 12 and a speaker 14 capable of performing sound effects such as sound effects, music, and sounds. The slot machine 10 is provided with an effect display device 15 on the front door 12, which can execute a display effect of displaying an image imitating a character or a character. As the effect display device 15, for example, a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display can be adopted. In the present embodiment, the effect display device 15 functions as an effect execution means. The slot machine 10 is provided on the front surface of the front door 12 and below the effect display device 15, a substantially rectangular display window 12a through which the player can see through the inside of the machine.

The slot machine 10 includes a reel unit 16. The reel unit 16 is arranged inside the machine so that the player can visually recognize it through the display window 12a. The reel unit 16 includes a left reel 16a (first reel), a middle reel 16b (second reel), and a right reel 16c (third reel). The slot machine 10 has a plurality of reels. The reels 16a to 16c are spinning drums that are also called drums. A plurality of types of symbols are arranged on the reels 16a to 16c. The reels 16a to 16c are each provided with a symbol row in which a plurality of symbols are arranged in an identifiable manner along the outer peripheral surface thereof. The symbol row is provided by winding a band-shaped light-transmitting film (reel sheet), which is a plurality of symbols printed in the longitudinal direction, around the reels 16a to 16c. There are multiple types of designs. For example, a plurality of types of patterns include a cherry pattern that imitates cherry, a watermelon pattern that imitates watermelon, a bell pattern that imitates a bell, a seven pattern that imitates “7”, and a bar pattern that imitates the letters “BAR”. And a replay pattern imitating the characters of "REPLAY" are included.

The reel unit 16 includes an actuator for rotating and stopping the left reel 16a, an actuator for rotating and stopping the middle reel 16b, and an actuator for rotating and stopping the right reel 16c (none of which is shown). .. For example, a stepping motor can be used as the actuator that rotates and stops the reels 16a to 16c. The reels 16a to 16c can be rotated and stopped in the vertical direction independently of each other by actuators provided corresponding to the respective reels. In the slot machine 10, when the reels 16a to 16c rotate, the symbol row (a plurality of types of symbols) visually recognizable via the display window 12a is changed, whereby the variable game is executed. For example, the variation of the symbol row is performed in a mode in which the symbol row is vertically scrolled from the upper side to the lower side. As described above, the slot machine 10 is configured to be able to execute a variation game by rotating (operating) a reel on which a plurality of symbols are arranged. Further, the reel unit 16 detects the left reel sensor SE1 for detecting the rotation position of the left reel 16a, the middle reel sensor SE2 for detecting the rotation position of the middle reel 16b, and the rotation position of the right reel 16c. And a right reel sensor SE3 (shown in FIG. 7).

As shown in FIG. 2, the display window 12a is configured so that the reels 16a to 16c stop rotating and the symbols stopped at the symbol stop positions can be visually recognized. On each of the reels 16a to 16c, a stop position of the symbol is set so that the player can see the symbol through the display window 12a. Stop positions of a plurality of symbols are set on the reels 16a to 16c. On the left reel 16a, the first upper stop position A1 corresponding to the stop position of the symbol visible at the upper position of the display window 12a, the first stop position A1 corresponding to the stop position of the symbol visible at the middle position of the display window 12a. 1 middle stage stop position B1, 1st lower stage stop position C1 which corresponds to the stop position of the design which becomes visible in the lower stage position of display window 12a is set. The middle reel 16b has a second upper stop position A2 corresponding to the stop position of the symbol that can be visually recognized at the upper position of the display window 12a, and a stop position of the symbol that can be visually recognized at the middle position of the display window 12a. The second middle stop position B2 is set, and the second lower stop position C2 corresponding to the stop position of the symbol that is visible in the lower position of the display window 12a is set. Similarly, the right reel 16c has a third upper stop position A3 corresponding to the stop position of the symbol which is visible at the upper position of the display window 12a, and a stop position of the symbol which is visible at the middle position of the display window 12a. A corresponding third middle-stage stop position B3 and a third lower-stage stop position C3 corresponding to the stop position of the symbol that can be visually recognized at the lower-stage position of the display window 12a are set.

The first upper stage stop position A1, the second upper stage stop position A2, and the third upper stage stop position A3 among the stop positions of the symbols visible from the display window 12a are located on a straight line in the display window 12a. Further, the first middle stop position B1, the second middle stop position B2, and the third middle stop position B3 among the stop positions of the symbols that can be visually recognized from the display window 12a are located on a straight line in the display window 12a. Similarly, the first lower stop position C1, the second lower stop position C2, and the third lower stop position C3 among the stop positions of the symbols visible from the display window 12a are located on a straight line in the display window 12a. The upper stop positions A1 to A3, the middle stop positions B1 to B3, and the lower stop positions C1 to C3 are located in parallel.

At each stop position A1 to A3, B1 to B3, C1 to C3, a symbol having a predetermined area is stopped. Then, when the rotation of all the reels 16a to 16c is stopped, the player can visually recognize the nine symbols stopped at the respective stop positions A1 to A3, B1 to B3, C1 to C3 from the display window 12a. You can It should be noted that the display window 12a can be regarded as a display position where the stopped symbols can be visually recognized at the respective stop positions A1 to A3, B1 to B3, and C1 to C3. As described above, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, when all the reels stop rotating, nine symbols can be visually recognized through the display window 12a.

Then, in the slot machine 10, a stopped symbol combination can be determined as a winning combination by a combination of one stop position among the three stop positions of the upper stage, the middle stage, and the lower stage set for each reel 16a to 16c. A valid stop position combination is set. This "combination of effective stop positions that can determine the stopped symbol combination as a winning" corresponds to the activated line YL. The effective line YL is also called a winning line.

In the slot machine 10, the first middle stop position B1, the second middle stop position B2, and the third middle stop position B3 form an effective line YL (combination of effective stop positions). In other words, the effective line YL is constituted by the first middle stage stop position B1, the second middle stage stop position B2, and the third middle stage stop position B3. In this embodiment, the number of active lines is “one”. In the following description, it may be indicated that the symbol stops at each stop position forming the effective line YL as “the symbol stops on the effective line YL”.

In the following description, when the symbol combination stopped on the activated line YL is a symbol combination that defines an award, it is determined as “winning”. In the slot machine 10, when a symbol combination defining a prize is won, the prize defined in the symbol combination is awarded. In the present specification, the "symbol combination derived in the variable game" corresponds to the symbol combination stopped on the activated line YL in the variable game. Further, in the present specification, the "symbol combinations derived in the variable game" correspond to nine symbol combinations that can be visually recognized from the display window 12a, including the symbol combinations stopped on the activated line YL. On the other hand, stop positions other than valid stop positions can be said to be invalid stop positions. Then, the combination of the stop positions configured to include the invalid stop positions is a combination of the invalid stop positions in which the stopped symbol combination cannot be determined as a winning due to internal control. This "combination of stop positions configured to include an invalid stop position that cannot determine a stopped symbol combination as a winning" can be said to be an invalid line.

In the slot machine 10, the following invalid lines ML1 to ML4 are examples of invalid lines formed by a combination of stop positions located on a straight line among a plurality of invalid lines. For example, the invalid line ML1 is configured by the first upper stop position A1, the second upper stop position A2, and the third upper stop position A3. The invalid line ML2 is configured by the first lower stop position C1, the second lower stop position C2, and the third lower stop position C3. The invalid line ML3 includes a first upper stop position A1, a second middle stop position B2, and a third lower stop position C3. The invalid line ML4 includes a first lower stop position C1, a second middle stop position B2, and a third upper stop position A3. Of the invalid lines ML1 to ML4, the invalid lines ML1 and ML2 correspond to “invalid lines that do not include valid stop positions”, and the invalid lines ML3 and ML4 correspond to “invalid lines that include valid stop positions”.

Thus, in the slot machine 10, when the rotation of all reels is stopped, nine symbols can be visually recognized through the display window 12a. In the present embodiment, the symbol combination is derived in the display window 12a as the result deriving unit by stopping the rotation of all reels. In addition, the nine symbols visible through the display window 12a include all the symbols stopped at the stop positions of the symbols forming the effective line YL, so the symbol combination derived by the result deriving unit is: It can also be regarded as a symbol combination derived on the effective line YL. As described above, in the present embodiment, the display window 12a makes it possible to visually recognize a part of the symbols of the plurality of types on the stopped reel.

The slot machine 10 is configured to be able to control the gaming state.
The gaming states in the slot machine 10 include a first gaming state and a second gaming state. The second gaming state is a gaming state in which the winning of the re-gaming combination is more easily permitted as compared with the first gaming state. Therefore, in the second gaming state, the consumption of medals is suppressed as compared with the first gaming state. Therefore, it can be said that the second gaming state is more advantageous than the first gaming state. The second game state is a so-called "replay time (RT)". In the slot machine 10, when the promoted re-game combination wins in the first game state, the game machine shifts to the second game state. In the slot machine 10, when one winning combination is won in the second game state, the game machine shifts to the first game state.

The slot machine 10 is configured to be able to control the effect state. There are multiple types of effect states. In each effect state, effect state identification information capable of identifying the effect state during the stay (controlled effect state) is notified. In the slot machine 10, for example, a different background image is displayed on the effect display device 15 for each type of effect state, the decoration lamp 13 is caused to emit light with a different emission color for each type of effect state, or for each type of effect state. Different music (for example, background music) is output to the speaker 14 to notify the effect state identification information. Therefore, the player can recognize the production state during the stay from the background image displayed on the production display device 15, the emission color of the decoration lamp 13, the music output from the speaker 14, and the like.

The effect states in the slot machine 10 include a normal effect state and an advantageous effect state (shown in FIG. 10). The advantageous effect state includes a preparation effect state, a confrontation effect state, a reverse effect effect state, a revival effect condition, a complete victory effect condition, an ending effect condition, and a winning effect condition. In the present embodiment, among the advantageous effect states, the preparatory effect state, the confrontation effect state, the reverse effect state, the revival effect state, the winning effect state and the ending effect state correspond to the specific state. The normal effect state is an effect state mainly for staying in the first game state. The preparatory production state is a production state where the player mainly stays in the first gaming state. The confrontation effect state is an effect state in which the player stays mainly in the second game state. The reversal effect state is an effect state that stays mainly in the second game state. The revival effect state is an effect state mainly for staying in the second game state. The complete winning effect state is an effect state in which the player stays mainly in the second game state. The ending production state is a production state in which the player stays mainly in the second game state. The winning effect state is an effect state in which the player stays mainly in the second game state.

In the slot machine 10, for example, an operation-related effect (hereinafter referred to as a navigation effect) that notifies an operation mode (operation timing or operation order) of a stop button for stopping a symbol combination for which a prize is set on the activated line YL. Is executed. The navigation effect is also called push-order navigation effect (push-order navigation effect). In the slot machine 10, when in the advantageous effect state, the proportion of the navigation effect being executed is higher than in the normal effect state. Therefore, the advantageous effect state can be said to be more advantageous than the normal effect state. The advantageous effect state is a so-called “assist time (AT)”. In this way, the slot machine 10 is configured to be controllable to a specific state that is more advantageous than the normal effect state corresponding to the normal state.

Next, the electrical configuration of the slot machine 10 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 7, the slot machine 10 includes a main board 40 as a main control unit inside the machine. The main board 40 performs processing relating to the progress of the game and outputs a control signal (control command) according to the result of the processing. The slot machine 10 includes a sub-board 41 as a sub-control unit inside the machine. The sub-board 41 performs a predetermined process based on the control information output by the main board 40.

The main control CPU 40a is configured to be able to input detection signals output from various sensors SE1 to SE4 via a port (not shown). Each actuator of the reels 16a to 16c is connected to the main board 40. The main control CPU 40a is configured to be able to control the operation of each actuator of the reels 16a to 16c via a drive circuit (not shown).

A bet button 18, a settlement button 19, a start lever 20, and stop buttons 21a to 21c are connected to the main board 40. The main control CPU 40a is configured to be able to input the detection signals output from the bet button 18, the settlement button 19, the start lever 20 and the stop buttons 21a to 21c via a port (not shown). The information panel 30 is connected to the main board 40. The main control CPU 40a is configured to be able to control the display content of the information panel 30 via a drive circuit (not shown).

Here, of the lottery table stored in the main control ROM 40b, a winning lottery table used for internal lottery for determining a winning number from a plurality of winning numbers and the winning number will be described. The internal lottery for determining the winning number is a so-called role lottery. The winning number determined in the role lottery is also called a condition device combination. Therefore, the role lottery can be said to be a “condition device combination lottery”. In the following description, “determining a predetermined winning number in the winning combination lottery” may be expressed as “winning a predetermined winning number in the winning combination lottery”.

The winning number is control information in which one or a plurality of symbol combinations are defined as symbol combinations that can be derived (displayed) on the activated line YL. In other words, the winning number is a condition device identifier in which one or more winning combinations are defined as winning combinations in the variable game. The winning numbers in the slot machine 10 include, for example, a winning number that allows winning the role of cherry, a winning number that allows winning of the role of watermelon, a winning number that allows winning of the role of bell, and a winning that allows winning of the re-playing role. The number is included.

Among the winning numbers that allow the winning of the Bell role, there is a winning number that allows the winning of a single winning role in addition to the Bell role. The winning numbers that allow the winning of the bell role and the one-win role include winning numbers in which the pushing order for winning the bell hand and the pushing order for winning the one-win role are different. For example, among the winning numbers that allow the winning of the bell and single-sheet winning combinations, the bell winning combination will be won when the stop button is operated in a predetermined pressing order, but a pressing order different from the predetermined pressing order. When the stop button is operated at, there is a winning number in which a single hand wins.

Among the winning numbers that allow winning of the re-gaming combination, there is a winning number that allows winning of only the normal re-gaming combination. Further, among the winning numbers that allow winning of the re-gaming combination, there are winning numbers that allow winning of the normal re-gaming combination and the bell re-gaming combination. The winning numbers that allow winning of the normal re-playing role and the Bell re-playing role have different winning numbers for the push order for winning the normal re-playing role and the pushing order for winning the Bell re-playing role. include.

As shown in FIG. 8, in the slot machine 10, there are a total of six winning numbers T1 to T6 as winning numbers for which winning of the normal re-gaming combination and the bell re-gaming combination are allowed.
In the winning number T1, "push order other than the first push order" is set as the push order for winning the normal replay combination, and "first push order" is set as the push order for winning the bell replay combination. Has been. In the winning number T2, the "push order other than the second push order" is set as the push order for winning the normal replay combination, and the "second push order" is set as the push order for winning the bell replay combination. Has been. In the winning number T3, the "push order other than the third push order" is set as the push order for winning the normal replay combination, and the "third push order" is set as the push order for winning the bell replay combination. Has been. In the winning number T4, a "push order other than the fourth push order" is set as the push order for winning the normal replay combination, and a "fourth push order" is set as the push order for winning the bell replay combination. Has been. In the winning number T5, a "push order other than the 5th push order" is set as a push order for winning the normal replay combination, and a "5th push order" is set as the push order for winning the bell replay combination. Has been. In the winning number T6, "a pushing order other than the 6th pushing order" is set as a pushing order for winning the normal replaying combination, and "6th pushing order" is set as a pushing order for winning the bell replaying combination. Has been.

In this way, in the winning numbers T1 to T6, which are the “winning numbers that allow the winning of the normal re-gaming combination and the bell re-gaming combination”, one of the first to sixth pressing sequences is It is defined as a push order for winning a game role. Then, in the slot machine 10, for example, when the winning number T3 is won, when the stop button is operated in the third pushing order, the bell re-playing combination is won, while in the pushing order other than the third pushing order (for example, When the stop button is operated in the first pressing order), the normal re-gaming combination wins.

Further, among the winning numbers for which the winning of the re-gaming combination is allowed, there are winning numbers for allowing the winning of the normal re-gaming combination and the promotion re-gaming combination. The winning numbers that allow winning of the normal re-playing role and promotion of the re-playing game have different winning numbers for the push order for winning the normal re-playing role and the pushing order for winning the promoted re-playing role. include. For example, in the winning numbers that allow winning of the normal re-gaming role and the promotion re-gaming role, if the stop button is operated in a predetermined push order, the promotion re-gaming role wins, while the predetermined pushing order When the stop button is operated in a push order different from that, there is usually a winning number in which the re-gaming player wins. In the "winning numbers that allow winning of the normal re-gaming combination and promotion re-gaming combination", the sixth pressing order is defined as the pressing order for winning the promotion re-gaming combination.

In the following description, the case where the winning number that allows the winning of the cherry role is won in the winning lottery will be referred to as “the case where the winning of the cherry role is allowed”. In addition, the case where the winning number that allows the winning of the watermelon part is won in the part lottery is shown as "the case where the winning of the watermelon part is allowed". Similarly, the case where the winning number that allows the winning of the Bell role is won in the winning lottery is shown as "the case where the winning of the Bell role is allowed". In addition, the case where the winning number for allowing the re-playing combination is won in the part lottery is indicated as “the case where the winning for the re-playing combination is allowed”. Further, the case where the winning number that allows the winning of the normal re-playing role and the Bell re-playing role is won in the role lottery is shown as "the case where the winning of the Bell re-playing role is allowed". In addition, the case where the winning number that allows the winning of the normal replaying role and the promotion of the promoting replaying role is won in the role lottery is shown as "the case where the winning of the promotion replaying role is allowed".

In the slot machine 10, the role lottery tables include a first role lottery table and a second role lottery table. The first role lottery table is used in the role lottery when controlled to the first gaming state. The second role lottery table is used in the role lottery when controlled to the second gaming state. In the role lottery table, the value of the random number used for the role lottery (hereinafter, referred to as the role lottery random number) is a numerical value within the range that can be taken as the value of the role lottery random number for the winning number that can be determined It is distributed by a predetermined number from among. In the second role lottery table, compared to the first role lottery table, the values of the role lottery random numbers are distributed so that the probability of summing the determination rate of the winning numbers that allow the winning of the re-gaming combination increases. .. In the slot machine 10, when none of the winning numbers is won in the winning combination lottery (when the winning of the winning combination is not allowed), the lottery result of the winning combination lottery is “out”. Then, if the lottery result of the winning combination lottery is out of alignment, the symbol combination for which the prize is set is not derived on the activated line YL based on the lottery result of the winning combination lottery. By the way, in the slot machine 10, the probability that the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed in both the first winning lottery table and the second winning lottery table is the probability that the winning of the bell winning role is allowed, and the normal replay. It is lower than the probability that the winning of the winning combination is allowed and the probability that the winning of the Bell re-playing winning combination is allowed. The role of cherry and the role of watermelon are so-called rare roles. In particular, in the slot machine 10, in both the first role lottery table and the second role lottery table, the probability that the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed is the winning of the bell role or the bell replaying role. Lower than the probability.

Next, the sub-board 41 will be described in detail.
As shown in FIG. 7, the sub-board 41 includes a sub-control CPU 41a, a sub-control ROM 41b, and a sub-control RAM 41c. For example, the sub-control CPU 41a executes various processes (for example, effects-related processes) by executing the sub-control program. The sub-control ROM 41b stores a sub-control program, a lottery table used for lottery, a judgment value, and the like. The sub-control ROM 41b stores the light emission effect data regarding the light emission effect on the decoration lamp 13. The sub-control ROM 41b stores sound effect data regarding sound effects in the speaker 14. The sub-control ROM 41b stores display effect data relating to the display effect on the effect display device 15.

The sub-control RAM 41c is configured to be able to store various information that is appropriately rewritten during the operation of the slot machine 10. The information stored in the sub control RAM 41c includes, for example, a flag, a counter, and a timer. The sub-board 41 is configured to be able to generate random numbers. For example, the random number may be generated as a hardware random number by mounting a random number generation circuit that updates the value of the random number on the sub-board 41, and the sub-control CPU 41a generates the random number on the predetermined control cycle. It may be generated as a software random number by updating the value.

The decorative lamp 13, the speaker 14, and the effect display device 15 are connected to the sub-board 41. The sub-control CPU 41a is configured to be able to control the decoration lamp 13, the speaker 14, and the effect display device 15 via a drive circuit (not shown).

Hereinafter, the process relating to the variable game executed by the main control CPU 40a of the main board 40 based on the main control program will be described.
When the main control CPU 40a receives a detection signal indicating that the button has been operated, the main control CPU 40a executes a predetermined control defined by the detection signal. Then, the main control CPU 40a executes display control of the information panel 30 each time by inputting various detection signals and various controls. When paying out medals, the main control CPU 40a controls the hopper unit so as to eject (pay out) medals when the credit upper limit is exceeded. The main control CPU 40a controls the hopper unit so as to eject medals for credit when paying for credit.

Further, when the detection signal output from the insertion sensor SE4 is input, the main control CPU 40a is able to specify that the detection signal output from the insertion sensor SE4 has been input, that is, that a medal has been inserted into the medal insertion slot 17. Store information in the output buffer. Further, when the main control CPU 40a inputs the detection signals output from the bet button 18, the settlement button 19, the start lever 20, and the stop buttons 21a to 21c, the main control CPU 40a outputs control information capable of specifying that the detection signals have been input to the output buffer. Store. For example, when the main control CPU 40a inputs a detection signal output from the adjustment button 19, the main control CPU 40a outputs control information capable of specifying that the detection signal from the adjustment button 19 has been input, that is, that the adjustment button 19 has been operated. To store. The control information (command) stored in the output buffer is output to the sub-board 41 in the interrupt processing after the next time.

The main control CPU 40a sets the number of bets when a medal is inserted through the medal insertion slot 17 or a detection signal from the bet button 18 is input. When the number of bets is set, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as a bet number setting command) capable of specifying that the number of bets has been set in the output buffer. Further, the main control CPU 40a updates the number of credits according to the operation of the bet button 18. The main control CPU 40a updates the number of credits when increasing the number of credits by inserting medals. Then, by setting the number of bets that can start the variable game, the variable game startable condition that enables the variable game to start is satisfied.

Subsequently, when the detection signal from the start lever 20 is input in the state where the game can be started, the main control CPU 40a performs the winning combination lottery. The main control CPU 40a obtains the value of the random number for role lottery, and based on the value of the random number for role lottery, refers to the role lottery table corresponding to the gaming state and performs the role lottery. In this way, the winning combination lottery is triggered by the start operation. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a performs the winning combination lottery, thereby realizing a function as a winning combination lottery means.

When the winning number is won in the winning combination lottery, the main control CPU 40a stores winning information that can specify the winning number in the main control RAM 40c. When the winning number is won in the winning combination lottery, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as a winning command) capable of specifying the winning number that has been won in the output buffer. Note that the main control CPU 40a erases the winning information stored in the main control RAM 40c when the variable game ends.

The main control CPU 40a controls the reels 16a to 16c to start rotation upon the input of the detection signal from the start lever 20, and starts the variation game. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores control information indicating the start of the variable game (hereinafter referred to as the variable game start command) in the output buffer. The main control CPU 40a controls the reels 16a to 16c to start rotating in a situation where the wait time has elapsed. Subsequently, when the detection signal from the stop button is input, the main control CPU 40a performs control (stop control) for stopping the rotation of the reel corresponding to the detection signal. The main control CPU 40a grasps the information on the rotation position and the stop position of each reel based on the position signal from the reel sensor corresponding to each reel 16a to 16c. That is, the position signal from each reel sensor causes the main control CPU 40a to specify the rotation status of each rotating reel, while causing the main control CPU 40a to specify the stop status of each reel that is stopped. Further, when the main control CPU 40a inputs the detection signal from the stop button to stop the rotation of the corresponding reel, the main control CPU 40a can specify the stop operation (hereinafter, referred to as a stop operation command). Is stored in the output buffer.

Next, the stop control performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a stops the rotation of each reel within a predetermined range (for example, a maximum of 4 symbols) from the timing when each stop button is operated based on the lottery result of the combination lottery, and stops the symbol combination (game. Derive the results). When stopping each rotating reel, the main control CPU 40a controls the stop control stored in the main control ROM 40b according to the lottery result of the combination lottery and the operation mode (operation sequence or operation timing) of the stop button. Based on the control data, the rotation of the reel is stopped to stop the symbol. Thus, the main control CPU 40a controls the stop of the reels according to the lottery result of the winning combination lottery and the operation mode of the stop button. Even if the lottery result of the combination lottery is the same, the main control CPU 40a may perform stop control by using different control data for stop control depending on the operation sequence and operation timing of the stop button. For example, when the winning of the bell combination is permitted, the main control CPU 40a causes the bell stop eye to be drawn out on the activated line YL when the stop button is operated in the push order for winning the bell combination. The rotation of the reels 16a to 16c is stopped. On the other hand, in the case where the winning of the bell combination is allowed, the main control CPU 40a causes the bell spill stop mark on the activated line YL when the stop button is operated in a pressing order different from the pressing order for winning the bell combination. The rotation of the reels 16a to 16c is stopped so that Incidentally, the main control CPU 40a stops the rotation of the reels 16a to 16c so as to derive the shift stop line on the activated line YL when the lottery result of the combination lottery is out of alignment. No prize has been set for the off-stop.

Subsequently, when the rotation of all the reels 16a to 16c is stopped, the main control CPU 40a makes a winning determination. In the winning determination, when the symbol combination stopped on the activated line YL is a symbol combination permitted to be stopped on the activated line YL, the main control CPU 40a determines the winning of the symbol combination. On the other hand, in the winning determination, the main control CPU 40a, when determining the winning of the symbol combination (combination) that is allowed to be stopped on the activated line YL, performs the control of awarding the prize defined in the symbol combination.

For example, the main control CPU 40a performs control for giving a predetermined number of medals when determining the winning of the payout combination. Further, the main control CPU 40a, when determining the winning of the re-game combination, performs the control of giving the re-game. As a control for giving a replay game, the main control CPU 40a sets the same bet number as that of the variable game in which the winning is determined. Further, when determining the winning of the symbol combination (winning combination), the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a winning instruction command) for instructing the symbol combination determined as winning in the output buffer.

In the variable game in the slot machine 10, when the winning of the winning combination is determined by the winning determination, the variable game is finished after the control for awarding a prize is performed. On the other hand, in the fluctuating game in the slot machine 10, when the winning determination of the winning combination is not made, the changing game ends after the winning determination is made. In the slot machine 10, by operating all the stop buttons 21a to 21c and stopping all the reels 16a to 16c, the winning determination is performed, and then the variable game ends. That is, the slot machine 10 is configured to end the variable game by operating all stop operation parts and stopping all reels.

In this embodiment, the main control CPU 40a controls the transition of the game state.
The main control CPU 40a shifts the game state by updating the game state information stored in the main control RAM 40c. For example, when game state information that can specify the first game state is stored in the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a can specify the second game state based on the game state information stored in the main control RAM 40c. By updating the game state information, the first game state is shifted to the second game state. The main control CPU 40a updates the second game state to the identifiable game state information and controls to the second game state when the promoted re-game combination is won in the first game state. As a result, the gaming state shifts from the first gaming state to the second gaming state. Further, the main control CPU 40a updates the first game state to identifiable game state information and controls to the first game state when one winning combination is won in the second game state. As a result, the gaming state shifts from the second gaming state to the first gaming state. Further, when the main control CPU 40a updates the game state information of the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a game state command) capable of specifying the updated game state in the output buffer.

In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a controls the transition of the effect state.
Although specific control will be described later, the main control CPU 40a shifts the effect state by updating the effect state information stored in the main control RAM 40c. In addition, when the main control CPU 40a updates the effect state information, the main control CPU 40a stores control information capable of specifying the updated effect state (hereinafter, referred to as effect state command) in the output buffer.

Further, the main control CPU 40a may notify the operation mode of the stop button. Then, when notifying the operation mode of the stop button, the main control CPU 40a causes the payout display unit 37 to display the operation information. The main control CPU 40a displays information that allows the pressing order to be specified even in the operation mode of the stop button. When notifying the operation mode of the stop button, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as operation mode command) capable of specifying the operation mode of the stop button to be notified, in the output buffer.

Next, the process relating to the variable game executed by the sub control CPU 41a based on the sub control program will be described.
When the sub-control CPU 41a inputs various control information of the variable game start command and the winning instruction command, the decoration lamp 13, the speaker 14, and the effect are performed such that various effects are executed based on the content instructed by the control information. At least one of the display devices 15 is controlled.

When the game state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a stores the sub game state information indicating the game state under control of the main control CPU 40a in the sub control RAM 41c. When the effect state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a stores, in the sub control RAM 41c, the sub effect state information indicating the effect state that the main control CPU 40a is controlling. Then, the sub-control CPU 41a controls to an effect state that can be specified from the auxiliary effect state information.

Further, when the operation mode command is input, the sub control CPU 41a causes a navigation effect that notifies the operation mode of the stop button that can be specified from the operation mode command. In the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the navigation effect based on the winning command and the operation mode command. The control regarding the navigation effect will be described later.

Here, the navigation effect executed in the effect display device 15 will be described. The operation mode of the stop button notified in the navigation effect corresponds to the stop operation mode. Therefore, the navigation effect corresponds to a stop operation notification effect for notifying the mode of the stop operation.

As shown in FIG. 9A, in the navigation effect, there is a navigation effect of displaying the navigation image NG in the display areas Ha to Hc above the stop buttons 21a to 21c in the effect display device 15. The navigation image NG includes a number with which it is possible to specify which number is operated. In the display area Ha, which is a display area above the stop button 21a in the effect display device 15, a navigation image NG including a number that can specify the order at which the stop button 21a is operated is displayed. In the display area Hb, which is a display area above the stop button 21b in the effect display device 15, a navigation image NG including a number that can specify the operation number of the stop button 21b is displayed. Similarly, in the effect display device 15, in the display area Hc, which is a display area above the stop button 21c, a navigation image NG including a number that can specify the order at which the stop button 21c is operated is displayed. For example, in the navigation effect shown in FIG. 9A, the stop button 21c is operated first (first), the stop button 21b is operated second, and the stop button 21a is operated last (third). It corresponds to a navigation effect for notifying the operation mode of the stop button.

The navigation image NG includes a navigation image NG based on blue color, a navigation image NG based on yellow color, and a navigation image NG based on white color. Then, in the navigation effect in which the navigation image NG is displayed, "blue navigation effect" in which the navigation image NG based on blue is displayed and "yellow navigation effect" in which the navigation image NG based on yellow is displayed. And "white navigation effect" in which a navigation image NG based on white is displayed. In the slot machine 10, the blue navigation effect or the white navigation effect is executed when the operation order of the stop button for winning the normal replay combination is notified. In the slot machine 10, the yellow navigation effect or the white navigation effect is executed when the operation order of the stop buttons for winning the bell combination is notified. Further, in the slot machine 10, when the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the bell re-playing combination is notified, a white navigation effect is executed.

Therefore, in the slot machine 10, when the blue navigation effect is executed, if the stop button is operated in the push order notified in the blue navigation effect, it can be understood that the normal re-gaming combination is won. Further, in the slot machine 10, when the yellow navigation effect is executed, it is possible to understand that the bell combination will be won by operating the stop button in the push order notified in the yellow navigation effect. However, in the slot machine 10, when the white navigation effect is executed, when the stop button is operated in the push order notified in the white navigation effect, any one of the normal re-gaming combination, the bell combination, and the bell re-gaming combination is performed. I can't figure out if a part will win.

In the navigation effect shown in FIG. 9B, the operation mode image SG and the symbol image ZG are displayed on the effect display device 15. Specifically, in the navigation effect shown in FIG. 9B, the operation mode image SG having the content capable of identifying that the design used as the index of the operation timing of the stop button is the seven design, and the design image simulating the seven design. ZG is displayed on the effect display device 15. In the following description, the navigation effect shown in FIG. 9B is referred to as “seven navigation effect”. In the slot machine 10, when the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the promoted re-gaming combination is notified, the Seven-Navi effect is executed. Incidentally, when in the first game state while being in an advantageous effect state other than the preparation effect state, if the push order for winning the promoted re-game combination is informed, the seven-navi effect is not executed and the white-navi effect is achieved. Is executed. Therefore, when the white navigation effect is executed, in addition to the normal re-gaming role, the bell role, and the bell re-gaming role, the promotion re-gaming role may win.

Here, the effect state and the transition mode of the effect state will be described.
As shown in FIG. 10, the effect states in the slot machine 10 include a normal effect state and an advantageous effect state. The advantageous effect state includes a preparation effect state, a confrontation effect state, a revival effect state, a reversal effect state, a winning effect state, an ending effect state, and a winning effect state.

In the normal effect state, an internal lottery (hereinafter, referred to as advantageous allowance lottery) that determines whether or not to allow the transition to the advantageous effect state is performed based on the lottery result of the combination lottery. The advantageous permissible lottery corresponds to an internal lottery also called an ART lottery or an AT lottery. In the slot machine 10, when the advantageous permissible lottery is won, it is determined that the transition to the advantageous production state is permitted. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the advantageous permissible lottery is not won, it is not determined that the transition to the advantageous effect state is permitted.

Further, in the slot machine 10, when the advantageous permissible lottery is carried out, the number of signs is determined. Then, in the slot machine 10, after the variation game for the number of precursors has been played, if it is determined that the transition to the advantageous effect state is permitted, the slot machine 10 moves to the preparatory effect state. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if the transition to the advantageous effect state is not determined to be permitted after the change game for the number of signs has been played, the normal effect state continues. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when it is determined that the transition to the advantageous effect state is allowed (when the advantageous allowance lottery is won), the variation game for the number of precursors is performed, and then the preparation effect state is set. Transition. After it is decided to allow the transition to the advantageous effect state, if the promoted re-game player wins before the change game for the number of precursors is played, the promotion of the promoted re-game player is awarded. As an opportunity, the state shifts to the confrontation production state without passing through the preparation production state. Further, in the slot machine 10, when in the preparatory production state, transition to the confrontation production state is triggered by the winning of the promotion re-game combination.

In the slot machine 10, an internal lottery (hereinafter, referred to as an end lottery) for deciding whether or not to end the advantageous effect state is performed in the confrontation effect state. In the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is won, the end of the advantageous effect state is determined. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is not won, the end of the advantageous effect state is not determined.

In the slot machine 10, when the specific value stored in the main control RAM 40c has reached a predetermined value, the end lottery is performed. In the present embodiment, the main control RAM 40c functions as a specific value storage unit that stores a specific value. The specific value in the present embodiment can take a value within the range of “1” to “7”. That is, in the present embodiment, the lower limit of the value that the specific value can take is “1”, and the upper limit of the value that the specific value can take is “7”. In this way, the lower limit and the upper limit are set for the values that the specific value can take. The predetermined value in this embodiment is "1". That is, the predetermined value is the lower limit of the value that the specific value can take. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the specific value reaches the predetermined value while being controlled to the specific state, the ending lottery for determining whether to end the specific state is performed.

In the slot machine 10, if the final lottery is not won, the confrontation effect state is continued. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is won, an internal lottery (hereinafter, referred to as revival lottery) for deciding whether to shift to the revival effect state if the internally stored stock number is 0 Done. In the slot machine 10, when the revival lottery is won, the transition to the revival effect state is determined. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the revival lottery is not won, the transition to the revival effect state is not decided. In the present embodiment, the revival lottery is performed when the final lottery is won, that is, when the final state is determined to end the specific state.

In the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is won and the revival lottery is won, the revival effect state is entered. Further, in the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is won and the revival lottery is not won, the state shifts to the normal effect state and the advantageous effect state ends. That is, in the present embodiment, when the final lottery is won (when it is decided to end the confrontation effect in the end lottery), the confrontation effect state is ended, and the state shifts to the normal effect state. As described above, in the present embodiment, the ending condition of the specific state includes the ending condition that is satisfied when it is determined to end the specific state in the ending lottery. Then, in the present embodiment, the end condition that is satisfied when it is determined to end the specific state in the end lottery corresponds to the first end condition. In this way, the first ending condition is satisfied when it is decided to end the specific state in the ending lottery.

By the way, in the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is won, if the internally stored number of stocks is 1 or more, the state shifts to the revival effect state. At this time, in the slot machine 10, the stock count is decremented by 1, and the stock count is reduced. Also, at this time, the slot machine 10 does not carry out the revival drawing. As described above, in the slot machine 10, if the number of stocks is 1 or more, even if the end lottery is won, the advantageous effect state is not ended upon the winning of the winning lottery and the revival effect state is entered. In the following description, a case of shifting to the revival effect state by subtracting 1 from the stock number when winning the end lottery may be referred to as “a case of consuming stock and migrating to the revival effect state”.

Further, in the slot machine 10, an internal lottery (hereinafter, referred to as reverse lottery) for deciding whether or not to shift to the reverse production state is performed in the confrontation production state. In the slot machine 10, when winning the reverse lottery, the transition to the reverse effect state is determined. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the player does not win the reverse lottery, the shift to the reverse effect state is not decided. Then, in the confrontation effect state, when the slot machine 10 wins the reverse rotation lottery, the slot machine 10 shifts to the reverse effect state. Further, in the confrontation effect state, in the slot machine 10, when the reverse lottery is not won, the confrontation effect state is continued.

Further, in the confrontation production state, in the slot machine 10, when the transition to the victory production state is determined, the slot machine 10 transitions to the victory production state. In the slot machine 10, in the confrontation effect state, transition to the victory effect state is determined when the special value stored in the main control RAM 40c reaches a predetermined privilege value. In the present embodiment, the main control RAM 40c functions as a special value storage unit that stores a special value. The lower limit of the value that the special value can take in this embodiment is “0”. The privilege value in this embodiment is "0". That is, the privilege value is the lower limit value of the values that the special value can take. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value while being controlled to the specific state, the privilege is granted. Further, in the present embodiment, when the special value reaches the privilege value, the confrontation effect state ends and the state shifts to the victory effect state. Therefore, the ending condition of the specific state includes the ending condition that is satisfied when the special value reaches the privilege value. Then, in the present embodiment, the termination condition that is satisfied when the special value reaches the privilege value corresponds to the second termination condition. In this way, the second termination condition is satisfied when the special value reaches the predetermined specific value. The second end condition is different from the first end condition.

Further, in the slot machine 10, when the number of variable games played in the confrontation effect state reaches a predetermined number (hereinafter, referred to as the confrontation stay upper limit number of times), the game machine shifts to the victory effect state. The maximum number of confrontation stays is set to “100 times”. As described above, in the slot machine 10, even when the specific value does not reach the predetermined privilege value, when the variation game of the confrontation stay upper limit number of times is performed in the confrontation effect state, the state shifts to the victory effect state. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the special value is set as the special value when the number of variable games played in the confrontation effect state reaches the maximum number of confrontation stays when the contrast effect state is controlled. It is the same as the privilege granted when it reaches.

In addition, in the slot machine 10, when it is in the confrontation effect state, when the transition condition to the ending effect state is satisfied, the slot machine 10 moves to the ending effect state. In the slot machine 10, the condition for transitioning to the ending effect state is that the number of variable games executed after being controlled to a specific state (hereinafter, referred to as advantageous continuous number) reaches an advantageous upper limit number (upper limit number). Is established at the timing of. Then, in the slot machine 10, the timing at which the condition for shifting to the ending effect state is satisfied varies depending on the number of stocks. In the present specification, "the number of variable games executed after being controlled to a specific state (advantageous number of consecutive times)" means an advantageous effect state without shifting to a normal effect state after being controlled to a specific state. It means the number of variable games executed, and can also be said to be the number of variable games executed in the advantageous effect state.

Further, in the slot machine 10, in the revival effect state, the reverse lottery is performed. In the revival effect state, when the slot machine 10 wins the reverse rotation lottery, it shifts to the reverse effect state. Further, in the revival effect state, in the slot machine 10, when the reverse lottery is not won, the state shifts to the confrontation effect state.

Incidentally, in the slot machine 10, when the stock is consumed and the revival effect state is entered, the slot machine 10 is moved to the reversal effect state even if the reverse lottery is not won. In the following description, when the final lottery is won, the number of stocks is decremented by 1 to shift to the reversion production state and then to the reverse production state. May be indicated. In this embodiment, the reverse lottery is performed even when the stock is consumed and the state is changed to the revival effect state. However, for example, it is possible to shift to the reverse effect state without performing the reverse number lottery. You may comprise.

Further, in the slot machine 10, in the reverse production state, an internal lottery (hereinafter, referred to as a reverse victory lottery) for deciding whether to shift to the victory production state is performed. In the slot machine 10, when the reverse winning lottery is won, the transition to the winning effect state is determined. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the reverse winning lottery is not won, the transition to the winning effect state is not decided. In the reverse effect state, in the slot machine 10, when the reverse victory lottery is won, the state shifts to the victory effect state. Further, in the reversing effect state, in the slot machine 10, when the reversal winning lottery is not won, the state shifts to the confrontation effect state. In the slot machine 10, when the player wins the reverse victory lottery, even if the special value does not reach the privilege value, the player wins the reverse victory lottery and shifts to the winning effect state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the player wins the reverse victory lottery, regardless of the special value, the player wins the reverse victory lottery and shifts to the winning effect state.

As described above, in the slot machine 10, the bonus is awarded when the player is won in the reverse winning lottery regardless of the special value while being controlled to the reverse effect state. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the player wins the reverse winning lottery while being controlled to the reverse effect state, the privilege is awarded. Further, in the slot machine 10, when the special value reaches the privilege value while being controlled in the confrontation effect state, as in the case of winning the reverse victory lottery when being controlled in the reverse effect state, Controlled to a winning performance. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the special value reaches the privilege value while the game is controlled to the confrontation effect state, the privilege granted is when the player wins the reverse victory lottery when the game is controlled to the reverse effect state. It is the same as the privilege granted to.

In addition, in the present embodiment, when the player wins the reverse victory lottery while being controlled to the confrontation effect state, the reverse effect state ends and the state shifts to the victory effect state. Therefore, the ending condition of the specific state includes the ending condition that is satisfied when the reverse winning lottery is won. Then, in the present embodiment, the ending condition that is satisfied when the reverse winning lottery is won corresponds to the second ending condition. As described above, the second ending condition is satisfied when the reverse winning lottery is won.

Incidentally, in the slot machine 10, when the stock is consumed to shift to the reversal effect drawing state, the slot machine 10 is shifted to the victory effect state even if the reverse winning lottery is not won. In addition, in the present embodiment, the reverse winning lottery is configured to be performed even when the stock is consumed to shift to the reverse rendering state. However, for example, the reverse winning lottery is not performed and the winning performance state is set. It may be configured to migrate.

As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the stock number is decremented by 1 when the final lottery is won (when the stock is consumed), the revival effect state and the reverse effect state are passed, and the state is shifted to the victory effect state. That is, in the slot machine 10, if the number of stocks is one or more, even if the final lottery is won, as a result, the specific state ends and the state shifts to the winning effect state. That is, in the present embodiment, when the number of stocks is consumed while being controlled to the specific state, the specific state ends and the state shifts to the winning effect state. Therefore, the end condition of the specific state includes the end condition that is satisfied when the stock count is consumed. In the present embodiment, the end condition that is satisfied when the number of stocks is consumed corresponds to the second end condition. In this way, the second termination condition is satisfied when the number of stocks is consumed. As described above, the stock frequency corresponds to the frequency related to the establishment of the second termination condition. The slot machine 10 according to the present embodiment is configured to be able to hold the number of stocks regarding the establishment of the second termination condition.

In the slot machine 10, the specific state ends in both the case where the first end condition is satisfied in the specific state and the case where the second end condition is satisfied in the specific state. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the first end condition is satisfied in the specific state, the specific state is ended and the normal production state is entered, while when the second end condition is satisfied in the specific state, the specific state is satisfied. Ends and shifts to a winning effect state that is more advantageous than the normal effect state.

In the winning effect state, the slot machine 10 shifts to the specific state if the ending condition of the winning effect state is satisfied. The ending condition of the winning effect state is satisfied by playing a game in which the number of stays in winning is changed. Incidentally, the “number of times of winning stay” in the present embodiment is not a predetermined single number (fixed number). In the slot machine 10, when the ending condition of the winning effect state is satisfied, there are cases where the game machine shifts to the confrontation effect state and cases where the game machine shifts to the complete win effect state. Specifically, in the slot machine 10, if the number of times that the player has won the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state and the advantageous effect state has not ended and the number of transitions to the winning effect state has not reached the predetermined number, then to the confrontation effect state. And transition. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if the number of times that the player wins the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state and shifts to the winning effect state without ending the advantageous effect state has reached a predetermined number of times, it shifts to the complete winning effect state. To do. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the number of times the second end condition is satisfied without reaching the first end condition after being controlled to the specific state reaches the predetermined number, the game machine shifts to the complete winning effect state. In the present embodiment, the predetermined number of times is “15 times”. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the second finish condition is satisfied and the winning effect state is controlled, when the finish condition of the win effect state is satisfied, the slot machine 10 is again controlled to the specific state. That is, in the present embodiment, when the second end condition is satisfied and the specific state ends, the specific state is controlled again after the specific state ends.

In the perfect winning effect state, the slot machine 10 shifts to the normal effect state if the ending condition of the perfect winning effect state is satisfied. The condition for ending the winning effect state is satisfied when the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. Therefore, in the winning production state, in the slot machine 10, when the advantageous consecutive number of times reaches the advantageous upper limit number, it shifts to the normal producing state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when shifting to the complete win effect state, the slot machine 10 is in the complete win effect state and continues to be controlled to the specific state until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. In the present embodiment, when the variation game executed after being controlled to the specific state has reached the advantageous upper limit number of times, the specific state ends and the state shifts to the normal effect state. Therefore, the ending condition of the specific state includes an ending condition that is satisfied when the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. Further, in the present embodiment, the ending condition of the specific state corresponds to the third ending condition that is satisfied when the number of times of the variation game executed after being controlled to the specific state reaches the upper limit number. .. In this way, the third ending condition is satisfied when the number of times of the variable game executed after being controlled to the specific state reaches the upper limit number. The third ending condition is an ending condition relating to the number of variable games.

As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the number of transitions to the winning effect state without reaching the advantageous effect state by winning the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state has reached the predetermined number of times, the winning effect state is achieved. Until the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number, the game is controlled to the complete winning effect state. That is, in the present embodiment, when the number of times the second end condition is satisfied without being satisfied with the first end condition after being controlled to the specific state reaches a predetermined number of times, until the third end condition is satisfied, Continue to be controlled to a specific state. In addition, in the slot machine 10, in the complete winning effect state, the end lottery is not performed even if the specific value reaches a predetermined value. In other words, in the slot machine 10, when the number of times that the player wins the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state and shifts to the winning effect state without ending the advantageous effect state reaches a predetermined number of times, it shifts to the complete winning effect state. However, until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number, the end lottery is not performed even if the specific value reaches the predetermined value. That is, in the present embodiment, after the number of times the second end condition is satisfied without the first end condition being satisfied after being controlled to the specific state reaches the predetermined number of times, at least until the third end condition is satisfied, Even if the specific value reaches the predetermined value, the establishment of the first termination condition is continuously restricted.

Then, in the slot machine 10, the first end condition to the third end condition are satisfied until the number of times of winning the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state and shifting to the winning effect state without ending the advantageous effect state reaches a predetermined number. Of the end conditions, the first end condition and the second end condition are the end conditions of the specific state. That is, in the present embodiment, the first end condition, the second end condition, and the second end condition are satisfied until the number of times that the second end condition is satisfied without reaching the first end condition after being controlled to the specific state reaches a predetermined number. Of the three end conditions, the first end condition and the second end condition are the end conditions of the specific state. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, after the number of times that the player wins the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state and shifts to the winning effect state without ending the advantageous effect state reaches a predetermined number, the first end condition is changed to the first end condition. Of the three end conditions, the third end condition is the end condition for the specific state. That is, in the present embodiment, after the number of times that the second end condition is satisfied without reaching the first end condition after being controlled to the specific state reaches the predetermined number, the first end condition, the second end condition, and Of the third end conditions, the third end condition is the end condition for the specific state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the number of transitions to the winning effect state without reaching the advantageous effect state by winning the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state reaches the predetermined number of times, the ending condition of the specific state is Change. That is, in the slot machine 10, the ending condition of the specific state is different before and after the number of times of winning the end lottery after being controlled to the specific state and shifting to the winning production state without ending the advantageous production state reaches a predetermined number. ..

In the ending effect state, the slot machine 10 shifts to the normal effect state when the ending condition of the ending effect state is satisfied. The ending condition of the ending effect state is satisfied when the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. Therefore, in the ending effect state, in the slot machine 10, when the advantageous consecutive number of times reaches the advantageous upper limit number, the slot machine 10 shifts to the normal effect state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the ending effect state is entered, the slot machine 10 is in the ending effect state until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number, and is continuously controlled to the specific state. In the present embodiment, when the variation game executed after being controlled to the specific state has reached the advantageous upper limit number of times, the specific state ends and the state shifts to the normal effect state. Therefore, the ending condition of the specific state includes an ending condition that is satisfied when the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. Further, in the present embodiment, the ending condition of the specific state corresponds to the third ending condition that is satisfied when the number of times of the variation game executed after being controlled to the specific state reaches the upper limit number. .. In this way, the third ending condition is satisfied when the number of times of the variable game executed after being controlled to the specific state reaches the upper limit number. Further, the third ending condition is an ending condition relating to the number of variable games. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the condition for shifting to the ending effect state is satisfied, the slot machine 10 shifts to the ending effect state and continues to be controlled to the ending effect state until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. ..

Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the advantageous upper limit number in the complete winning effect state and the advantageous upper limit number in the ending effect state are the same. The advantageous upper limit number of times in this embodiment is set to "1500 times". Further, in the slot machine 10, in the advantageous effect state, the number of medals that is purely increased within a certain period (so-called net additional number) is “2”. Incidentally, in general, the "net additional number" is paid out when the number of medals to be inserted (the number of medals to bet in order to play a variable game), the probability of winning each winning combination, and the payout winning combination is won. It is calculated from the number of medals and the probability of winning the replay combination (or the probability of the replay combination winning).

As described above, in the slot machine 10 in which the advantageous upper limit number is set to “1500 times” and the net additional number is “2”, the number of medals to be increased in the advantageous effect state is “3000 (= 1500 times x 2 sheets)". In the slot machine 10, the advantageous effect state does not end even if the number of medals increased in the advantageous effect state exceeds "3000", and the advantageous effect state is maintained until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. Controlled by. Further, in the slot machine 10, even if the number of medals increased in the advantageous effect state has not reached “3000”, the advantageous effect state ends if the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. In this way, it can be said that the slot machine 10 is limited to "3000" in the number of medals to be increased in one advantageous effect state.

Hereinafter, the confrontation effect state, the reverse effect state, the revival effect state, the victory effect state, the complete victory effect state, and the ending effect state will be specifically described. In the present embodiment, controlling to the winning effect state corresponds to giving a privilege.

First, the confrontation effect state will be described.
As shown in FIG. 11, the character image Ca1 imitating the character of the main character is displayed on the effect display device 15 in the confrontation effect state. Further, in the confrontation effect state, the effect display device 15 displays a character image Ca2 simulating an enemy character. In the confrontation production state, the production is developed in such a manner that the main character and the enemy character confront each other.

The meter image Ga is displayed on the effect display device 15 in the confrontation effect state. In the present embodiment, the effect in which the meter image Ga is displayed corresponds to the specific effect. The meter image Ga corresponds to an image showing a battle situation between the main character and the enemy character. The content of the meter image Ga is based on the specific value stored in the main control RAM 40c.

The meter image Ga shown in FIG. 12A is the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “1”. The meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “1” includes the word “crisis”. The meter image Ga shown in FIG. 12B is the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “2”. The meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “2” includes the characters “inferior”. Incidentally, although not shown, the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “3” has the word “inferior” like the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “2”. include.

The meter image Ga shown in FIG. 12C is the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “4”. The meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “4” includes the letters “balance”. The meter image Ga shown in FIG. 12D is the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “5”. The meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “5” includes the characters “dominant”. Incidentally, although not shown, the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “6” and the meter image Ga displayed when the specific value is “7” have the specific value “5”. Similar to the meter image Ga displayed at this time, the word "dominant" is included. As described above, the content of the meter image Ga is not based on the content indicating the number of fluctuating games until the advantageous effect state ends (that is, the number of fluctuating games until the first end condition is satisfied), but based on the specific value. It becomes the content. Moreover, the content of the meter image Ga is not based on a special value. As described above, in the present embodiment, the content of the specific effect is not the content indicating the number of times of the variable game until the first ending condition is satisfied, but the content based on the specific value. Further, in the present embodiment, the content of the specific effect is not the content indicating the number of times of the fluctuating game until the specific state ends, but the content based on the specific value.

In the slot machine 10, when the specific value changes, that is, when the content of the meter image Ga changes, the specific pre-change effect may be executed before the content of the meter image Ga changes. For example, when the content of the meter image Ga changes as the specific value decreases, a specific pre-change presentation of the content in which the enemy character attacks the main character may be executed. On the other hand, when the content of the meter image Ga changes as the specific value increases, there may be a case where a specific pre-change presentation of the content in which the main character attacks the enemy character. Therefore, in the slot machine 10, the content of the meter image Ga may change after the effect before the specific change is executed. As will be described in detail later, in the slot machine 10, the contents of the meter image Ga may change without executing the pre-specific change effect.

In the slot machine 10, the specific value may decrease when the normal re-game combination wins in three consecutive variable games. Moreover, in the slot machine 10, when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, the specific value may increase. Further, in the slot machine 10, if the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed, the specific value may increase.

By the way, "when the Bell role or Bell re-game role wins in three consecutive variable games" means "when the Bell role wins in all three consecutive variable games" and "three consecutive times. In the case where the Bell re-playing part has won the prize in all of the variable games of ". In addition, "when Bell or Bell re-playing part wins in three consecutive variable games" means "when either one of bell or bell re-playing part wins in each of three consecutive fluctuating games. Is also included. For example, in the case where “the Bell re-playing combination wins in the first and second fluctuation games and the Bell winning combination in the third fluctuation game among the three consecutive fluctuation games”, “consecutive 3 This is intended to be included in the case where the role of Bell or the role of Bell replay wins in the variable game of the second time.

As shown in FIG. 13A, in the slot machine 10, when the specific value reaches “1”, the end lottery is performed. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the specific value has not reached “1” (when the specific value is any one of “2” to “7”), the end lottery is not performed. In the slot machine 10, when the specific value has reached “1” and the normal re-game combination is won, the end lottery is performed. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, even when the specific value has reached “1”, if the normal re-gaming combination does not win, the end lottery is not performed.

Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 13B, in the slot machine 10, a revival lottery is performed with a winning probability according to a special value. Specifically, in the slot machine 10, the higher the special value is (the special value is far from the privilege value), the lower the special value is (the special value is closer to the privilege value). It is easier to win the resurrection lottery. For example, in the slot machine 10, the winning probability of the resurrection lottery when the special value is “7501 or more” is “65%”, while the resurrection lottery when the specific value is in the range of “1001 to 1500” The winning probability is “25%”. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the special value is the first value, it is easier to win the revival drawing than when the special value is the second value which is lower than the first value.

Further, as shown in FIG. 13A, in the slot machine 10, when the specific value has reached “1”, the reverse lottery is performed. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the specific value does not reach "1", that is, when the specific value is any of "2" to "7", the reverse lottery is not performed. In the slot machine 10, when the specific value has reached "1" and the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed, the reverse lottery is performed. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, in the confrontation effect state, even if the specific value has reached “1”, if the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is not allowed, the reverse lottery is not performed.

As shown in FIG. 14, in the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is not won in the confrontation effect state, the confrontation effect state is continued and is controlled to the advantageous effect state. Further, in the slot machine 10, when the end lottery is won in the confrontation effect state, the defeat effect is executed. The defeat production has a content capable of specifying the end of the confrontation production state. Specifically, the defeat production is executed in such a manner that the main character loses the confrontation with the enemy character.

In the slot machine 10, when the revival lottery is won, after the defeat production is executed, the state shifts to the revival production state. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the revival lottery is won, after the defeat production is executed, the revival production state is controlled. Further, in the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is 1 or more, after the defeat production is executed, the state shifts to the revival production state. As described above, in the present embodiment, even if the final lottery is won, if the stock count is 1 or more, the defeat production is executed and then the revival production state is controlled. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the revival lottery is not won, after the defeat production is executed, the state shifts to the normal production state.

As shown in FIG. 11, the enemy display image Gb is displayed on the effect display device 15 in the confrontation effect state. In the present embodiment, the effect in which the image of the number of enemy soldiers Gb is displayed corresponds to the special effect. The enemy soldier number image Gb corresponds to an image showing the remaining number of enemy characters. The content of the enemy soldier number image Gb is based on the special value stored in the main control RAM 40c. That is, in this embodiment, the content of the special effect is based on the special value. Incidentally, the enemy number image Gb having the characters "remaining number of enemy soldiers: 1012" shown in FIG. 11 corresponds to the number of enemy soldiers image Gb which can specify that the special value is "1012". .. In this way, the numerical value shown in the enemy soldier number image Gb is the same as the special value.

Further, in the slot machine 10, when the special value can change, that is, when the content of the enemy soldiers image Gb can change, the special pre-change effect is performed before the contents of the enemy soldiers image Gb change. Executed. For example, when the content of the enemy soldier number image Gb changes as the special value decreases, the pre-special change effect of the content in which the main character attacks the enemy character is executed. Therefore, in the slot machine 10, the content of the enemy soldier number image Gb changes after the pre-special change effect is executed. Incidentally, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, even before the special value changes, that is, even when the content of the enemy soldier number image Gb does not change, the pre-special change effect may be executed. In the slot machine 10, if the winning of the role of cherry or the role of watermelon is allowed, and if the winning of the role of bell or the replaying of the bell is won in two consecutive variable games, the winning of the bell or the replaying of the bell is performed. When the winning of the winning combination is allowed, the pre-special change effect may be executed.

In the slot machine 10, the special value may decrease when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games. In addition, in the slot machine 10, the special value may decrease when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. The special value does not increase in this embodiment. Then, in the slot machine 10, when the special value reaches “0”, the state shifts to the winning effect state.

The pre-special change effect in the present embodiment includes a pre-special change effect executed when the special value decreases and a pre-special change effect executed when the special value does not decrease. In the case where the pre-special change effect executed when the special value decreases, and the case where the pre-special change effect executed when the special value does not decrease are executed, the remaining one reel is stopped. The effect contents of the pre-special change effect up to are the same, but the effect contents of the pre-special change effect after the remaining one reel is stopped are different. When the special pre-change effect executed when the special value decreases and when the pre-special change effect executed when the special value does not decrease are executed until the remaining one reel stops. The production contents of the special pre-change production are common. In the following description, the effect content of the special pre-change effect common to the special pre-change effect executed when the special value decreases and the special pre-change effect executed when the special value does not decrease is referred to as “common There is a case where it is indicated as "effect content".

In addition, in the pre-special change effect that is executed when the special value decreases, before the special change of the unachieved type that is executed when the special value after the decrease does not reach "0" due to the decrease of the special value. There is an effect and an achievement-type pre-special change effect that is executed when the special value after the decrease reaches "0" due to the decrease of the special value. When the unachieved special pre-change effect is executed and when the achievement-type special pre-change effect is executed, the effect contents of the special pre-change effect until the remaining one reel is stopped are common effects. While the contents are the same, the contents of the effect before the special change after the remaining one reel is stopped are different. That is, when the unachieved pre-special change effect is executed and when the achievement-type special pre-change effect is executed, the effect contents of the special pre-change effect until the remaining one reel is stopped are the same. ..

Furthermore, in the achievement-type pre-special change effect, the special value after the decrease reaches “0” due to the decrease in the special value when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games. There is a first achievement-type pre-special change effect that is executed in some cases. In addition, the achievement-type pre-special change effect is executed when the special value after the decrease reaches “0” due to the decrease in the special value when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. There is a special pre-change production of achievement type. When the first achievement type special pre-change effect is executed and when the second achievement type special pre-change effect is executed, the effect contents of the special pre-change effect until the remaining one reel is stopped Is the same as the common effect content, but the effect content before the special change effect after the remaining one reel is stopped is different. That is, in the case where the first achievement type pre-special change effect is executed and the second achievement type special pre-change effect is executed, the effect contents of the special pre-change effect until the remaining one reel is stopped are Is the same. In this way, the special pre-change production effect is executed when the special value is updated and the special value reaches "0" when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games. At least a part of the contents is different from the effect contents of the pre-special change effect that is executed when the special value is updated and the special value reaches “0” when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. In addition, the special value is updated and the special value reaches “0” when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games and the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. In this case, the effect contents of the special pre-change effect until the remaining one reel is stopped are the same, but the effect contents of the special pre-change effect after the remaining one reel is stopped are different.

Further, in the slot machine 10, the update of the specific value is restricted until the special value is updated after the specific value is updated. For example, in the slot machine 10, the specific value does not decrease until the special value decreases after the specific value decreases. That is, in the slot machine 10, it is restricted to create a situation in which the specific value is continuously reduced without reducing the special value. As described above, in the slot machine 10, the update of the specific value is restricted until the special value is updated after the specific value is updated. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, after the special value is updated, the special value may be updated even if the specific value is not updated. For example, in the slot machine 10, after the special value has decreased, the special value may decrease even if the specific value has not decreased.

An expected victory image GC is displayed on the effect display device 15 in the confrontation effect state. The expected victory image GC is displayed in the expected victory degree display area Gd in the effect display device 15. The winning expectation display area Gd is composed of five areas: a first area Gd1, a second area Gd2, a third area Gd3, a fourth area Gd4, and a fifth area Gd5.

When the number of times (hereinafter referred to as the number of consecutive holidays) controlled to the confrontation producing state without being controlled to the normal production state is the first to fifth times, the first area Gd1 has the first number of consecutive holidays. In the confrontation effect state, a victory expectation image GC capable of specifying the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character is displayed. In addition, when the number of consecutive games is 1st to 5th, in the second area Gd2, the degree of expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 2nd. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed. When the number of consecutive games is 1st to 5th, in the third area Gd3, the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 3rd is specified. A possible winning expectation image GC is displayed. Similarly, when the number of consecutive games is the first to the fifth, in the fourth region Gd4, the expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is the fourth. An expected victory image GC whose degree can be specified is displayed. In addition, when the number of times of continuous play is from the first time to the fifth time, in the fifth region Gd5, the degree of expectation of victory in which the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of times of continuous play is the fifth time. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed.

In addition, when the number of consecutive games is 6th to 10th, in the first area Gd1, the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 6th. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed. In addition, when the number of consecutive games is the sixth to tenth, in the second area Gd2, the degree of expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is the seventh. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed. When the number of consecutive games is 6th to 10th, in the third area Gd3, the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 8th is specified. A possible winning expectation image GC is displayed. Similarly, when the number of consecutive games is the sixth to tenth, in the fourth area Gd4, the expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is the ninth. An expected victory image GC whose degree can be specified is displayed. In addition, when the number of consecutive games is the sixth to tenth, in the fifth area Gd5, the degree of expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is the tenth. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed.

In addition, when the number of consecutive games is 11th to 15th, in the first area Gd1, the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 11th. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed. In addition, when the number of consecutive games is 11th to 15th, in the second area Gd2, the degree of expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 12th. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed. When the number of consecutive games is 11th to 15th, in the third area Gd3, the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 13th is specified. A possible winning expectation image GC is displayed. Similarly, when the number of consecutive games is 11th to 15th, in the fourth area Gd4, the expectation that the main character will win the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of consecutive games is 14th. An expected victory image GC whose degree can be specified is displayed. In addition, when the number of times of continuous play is 11th to 15th, in the fifth area Gd5, the degree of expectation that the character of the main character will win the showdown with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state when the number of times of continuous play is 15th. A winning expectation image GC that can specify "A" is displayed.

Here, in the slot machine 10, the degree of victory expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character in the confrontation effect state will be described.
In the slot machine 10, if the winning of the bell re-playing role is allowed, if the bell re-playing role can be won, the specific value may increase without decreasing, but the bell re-playing role can be won. If the normal replay combination is won without being able to do so, the specific value may decrease without increasing. In particular, in the slot machine 10, since the specific value may decrease when the normal re-play combination wins in three consecutive variable games, the bell re-play may be performed even once in three consecutive variable games. If a winning combination can be won, it is possible to avoid a decrease in the specific value. That is, in the slot machine 10, if the Bell re-playing combination is allowed to be won, if the Bell re-playing combination can be won, the decrease of the specific value is suppressed, and the end lottery is won to end the advantageous effect state. That is, it is possible to prevent the main character from losing the confrontation with the enemy character. Further, in the slot machine 10, if it is possible to suppress the end of the advantageous effect state by winning the end lottery, the period for decreasing the special value increases. It can be said that it is easy to shift to the state (the main character can easily win the confrontation with the enemy character). In addition, in the slot machine 10, even when the number of variable games executed in one confrontation effect reaches the maximum number of confrontation stays, the state shifts to the victory effect state, so that the end lottery is won and the advantageous effect state is set. If it can be prevented from ending, the number of variable games executed in the confrontation effect state tends to increase. As a result, in the slot machine 10, if it is possible to prevent the advantageous effect state from ending by winning the end lottery, it is easy to shift to the end effect state by executing the variation game of the confrontation stay upper limit number of times. It can be said that (the protagonist character can easily win the confrontation with the enemy character).

Further, in the slot machine 10, if the winning of the bell re-playing role is allowed, the special value may decrease if the winning of the bell re-playing role is possible, but the bell re-playing role cannot be won. The special value does not decrease when the normal replay role is awarded to. That is, in the slot machine 10, if the Bell re-playing combination is allowed to win, and if the Bell re-playing combination can be won, the special value is promoted to decrease, and the special value reaches the privilege value to enter the winning effect state. It can be said that the transition is easy (the main character can easily win the confrontation with the enemy character).

In the slot machine 10, when the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is notified when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, the bell re-playing combination is operated by operating the stop button according to the pushing order. Can be awarded. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, the push order for winning the normal re-playing combination is notified, and if the stop button is operated according to the pushing order, the normal re-playing combination is won. I will let you.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 15, in the slot machine 10, when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination (in FIG. The specific value is likely to decrease if the (playing navigation ratio of the player) is low. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is high when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, the specific value is difficult to decrease. Incidentally, in the slot machine 10, if the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is low when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, the specific value is unlikely to increase. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if there is a high probability that the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is notified when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, the specific value is likely to increase. As described above, in the slot machine 10, the change mode of the specific value differs depending on the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted.

Further, in the slot machine 10, if the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is low when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, the special value is difficult to decrease. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if there is a high probability that the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is notified when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, the special value is likely to decrease. As described above, in the slot machine 10, the change mode of the special value is different depending on the probability that the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is notified when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted.

As a result, in the slot machine 10, if the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is low when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, the character of the main character will be in the confrontation production state. Is less likely to win a showdown with an enemy character. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, if the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is high when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, the character of the main character will be High expectations for victory in confrontation with enemy characters.

Then, in the slot machine 10, the probability of being notified of the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted in each of the plurality of confrontation production states (hereinafter, bell re-playing combination) (Referred to as the navigation rate) is defined. As described above, the aspect pattern defines an aspect relating to the establishment of the specific update condition in each of the confrontation effect states (each specific state) that is performed a plurality of times. In the mode pattern, the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in each confrontation production state for 15 times, which is the upper limit of the number of consecutive holiday games, is defined. In the slot machine 10, the mode pattern is determined when the confrontation effect state in which the number of consecutive holiday games is first is started. Then, in each confrontation production state in the slot machine 10, the pushing order for winning the bell re-playing combination is notified at the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination defined in the mode pattern. The mode pattern is stored in the main control ROM 40b. In the present embodiment, the main control ROM 40b realizes a function as a pattern storage unit that stores a plurality of mode patterns.

FIG. 16 shows a part of a plurality of aspect patterns. For example, in the mode pattern TP1, the navigation rate of the bell re-playing role in the confrontation effect state of the first condominium production is “40%”, and the navigation rate of the bell re-playing role in the confrontation effect state of the second condominium production number is the second. It is set to "25%". When the mode pattern TP1 is determined, and when the winning number of the bell replaying role is allowed in the confrontation effect state in which the number of consecutive holidays is the first time, the push order for winning the bell replaying role with a probability of 40% On the other hand, the pushing order for winning the normal replay combination is notified with a probability of 60%. In addition, in the mode pattern TP8, the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in the confrontation effect state in which the number of consecutive holidays is the first is set to “100%”. Then, when the mode pattern TP8 is determined, and when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed in the confrontation effect state in which the number of consecutive games is the first time, the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination is informed without fail. To be done.

Then, in the slot machine 10, in the competition effect state, in the first area Gd1 to the fifth area Gd5 of the victory expectation degree display area Gd, the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination, that is, when the competition effect state is achieved. An expected victory image GC of a type corresponding to the degree of expectation that the main character wins the confrontation with the enemy character is displayed.

As shown in FIG. 17, the victory expectation image GC includes a first victory expectation image GCt imitating a triangle, a second victory expectation image GCs imitating a star, and a third victory expectation image GCh imitating a heart. There is. In the slot machine 10, the first winning expectation image GCt is displayed in the winning expectation display area Gd corresponding to the confrontation effect state in which the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is set to “0% to 20%”. In the slot machine 10, in the winning expectation display area Gd corresponding to the confrontation effect state in which the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is set to "21%-40%", the first winning expectation image GCt and the second winning expectation are displayed. One of the expected winning images GC among the images GCs is displayed. In the slot machine 10, in the winning expectation display area Gd corresponding to the confrontation effect state in which the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is set to "41% to 50%", the first winning expectation image GCt and the second winning expectation are displayed. Any one of the image GCs and the third winning expectation image GCh is displayed as the winning expectation image GC. In the slot machine 10, the second winning expectation image GCs and the third winning expectation are displayed in the winning expectation display area Gd corresponding to the confrontation effect state in which the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is set to "51%-80%". Any of the expected winning images GC among the images GCh is displayed. In the slot machine 10, the third winning expectation image GCh is displayed in the winning expectation degree display area Gd corresponding to the confrontation effect state in which the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is set to “81% to 100%”.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, in the confrontation effect state, the effect display device 15 displays an image GY indicating the victory expected image GC corresponding to the current confrontation effect state. For example, in the case where the number of consecutive games is in the eighth contradictory effect state, the effect display device 15 displays the third expected area GC in which the winning expectation image GC corresponding to the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination in the eighth contradictory effect state is displayed. The image GY is displayed at the position indicating Gd3. In FIG. 11, since the third winning expectation image GCh is displayed in the third area Gd3, it is specified that at least the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in the current confrontation effect state is “41 to 100%”. can do.

In the slot machine 10, in the confrontation effect state, a friend appearance effect in which a friend character who is a friend of the main character appears is executed. In the slot machine 10, the characters that can appear in the companion appearance effect include a first companion character, a second companion character, and a third companion character. Then, when the companion appearance effect is executed, some of the plurality of types of characters of the first companion character to the third companion character appear. Specifically, in the fellow appearance effect according to the present embodiment, one of the first to third fellow characters appears.

As shown in FIG. 11, when the first companion character appears in the companion appearance effect in the confrontation effect state, the effect display device 15 displays the first companion image NC1. Further, in the confrontation effect state, when the second friend character appears in the friend appearance effect, the effect display device 15 displays the second friend image NC2. Similarly, in the confrontation effect state, when the third friend character appears in the friend appearance effect, the effect display device 15 displays the third friend image NC3.

In the slot machine 10, the companion characters that have appeared are initialized in response to the transition from the confrontation effect state to the normal effect state or the transition from the confrontation effect state to the victory effect state. That is, the companion character that appeared in the confrontation effect state is initialized by the transition from the confrontation effect state to the normal effect state or the transition from the confrontation effect state to the victory effect state. Therefore, in the slot machine 10, when the companion appearance production is executed in the confrontation production state, until the transition production state transitions to the normal production state, or until the competition production state transitions to the victory production state. During this period, an image showing the fellow characters who have appeared in the fellow appearance production is displayed on the production display device 15.

In the slot machine 10, although one companion character among the first companion character to the third companion character appears in one companion appearance effect, a total of two companion appearance effects are performed when two companion appearance effects are executed. Two fellow characters will appear. In addition, in the companion appearance production in the slot machine 10, the companion characters that have already appeared do not appear. Therefore, the companion appearance effect is executed three times before the appearance of the companion character that has appeared, and after all the companion characters from the first companion character to the third companion character have appeared, the companion appearance effect is not executed. ..

Then, in the slot machine 10, when all the fellow characters of the first to third fellow characters have appeared, it is possible to recognize the transition to the winning effect state. That is, in the slot machine 10, when all types of fellow characters have appeared, it is possible to recognize the transition to the winning effect state, that is, the provision of the privilege.

Further, in the slot machine 10, in the case of the confrontation effect state, when the friend appearance effect is executed and the friend character appears, the friend effect by the appearing friend character may be executed. The companion effects in the present embodiment include companion effects by the first companion character (hereinafter, referred to as first companion effects), companion effects by the second companion character (hereinafter, referred to as second companion effects), and third companions. There is a companion effect by the character (hereinafter, referred to as a third companion effect). The first companion effect is a companion effect executed when the first companion character has already appeared. Further, the second companion effect is a companion effect executed in a state where the second companion character has already appeared. The third companion effect is a companion effect executed in a state where the third companion character has already appeared.

As shown in FIG. 18, in the slot machine 10, when the first fellow effect is executed, the specific value does not increase or decrease. That is, in the slot machine 10, when the first fellow effect is executed, the specific value does not increase, but the specific value does not decrease. As described above, in the slot machine 10, the specific value does not change when the first fellow effect is executed. Then, in the slot machine 10, even if the normal replay combination is won when the first companion effect is executed, the specific value does not decrease.

In the slot machine 10, when the second companion effect is executed, the amount of decrease in the special value is larger than when the second companion effect is not executed. That is, in the slot machine 10, when the special value decreases when the second fellow effect is executed (for example, when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won and the special value is reduced), the second fellow effect. The value that is subtracted from the special value is larger than that when the special value is decreased when is not executed.

In the slot machine 10, when the third companion effect is executed, the proportion of notification of the operation sequence for winning the bell re-playing combination is higher than when the third companion effect is not executed. That is, in the slot machine 10, when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted when the third fellow production is executed, and when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted when the third fellow production is not executed. In comparison, the operation sequence for winning the bell re-playing combination is easily notified.

Further, in the slot machine 10, the degree of advantage thereafter varies depending on the number and types of the fellow characters who have appeared. Specifically, the number of variable games performed subsequently in the winning effect state differs depending on the number and types of fellow characters that have appeared in the effecting state (mainly the confrontation effecting state) prior to the winning effect state.

As shown in FIG. 19, in the slot machine 10, when none of the first fellow character to the third fellow character has appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “20 times”. Become. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when any one of the first fellow character to the third fellow character appears, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “more than 20 (specifically, Specifically, it is 30 times or more)."

Further, in the slot machine 10, even when any one of the first to third fellow characters has appeared, the greater the number of the fellow characters that have appeared, the more the win production state is performed. The number of floating games increases. Specifically, in the slot machine 10, for example, when one companion character among the first companion character to the third companion character has appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “30 times”, “ It is either 40 times or 50 times. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, for example, when all of the first fellow character to the third fellow character have appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “100”.

Further, in the slot machine 10, even if the number of the companion characters appearing among the first companion character to the third companion character is the same, if the third companion character appears, the third companion character will appear. The number of variable games that are executed in the winning effect state is greater than when no character appears. Specifically, in the slot machine 10, for example, when the first companion character and the second companion character have appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “60 times”. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, for example, when the first companion character and the third companion character have appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “70 times”.

Further, in the slot machine 10, even when the third fellow character has appeared, when the second fellow character has appeared, compared to when the second fellow character has not appeared, The number of variable games performed in the winning effect state increases. Specifically, in the slot machine 10, for example, when the first companion character and the third companion character have appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “70”. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, for example, when the second companion character and the third companion character have appeared, the number of variable games performed in the winning effect state is “80 times”.

Further, in the slot machine 10, the number of stocks may increase according to the lottery result of the winning combination lottery in the confrontation production state. For example, in the slot machine 10, a stock lottery is performed when the winning of the role of cherry or the role of watermelon is permitted in the competition production state. Then, in the slot machine 10, when the stock lottery is won, 1 is added to the stock number and the stock number is increased.

In the slot machine 10, in the confrontation effect state, when the transition condition to the ending effect state is satisfied, the slot machine 10 moves to the ending effect state. The condition for shifting to the ending production state differs depending on the number of stocks.

As shown in FIG. 20, in the slot machine 10, the condition for shifting to the ending effect state is satisfied when the number of stocks is 0 and when the remaining number up to the advantageous upper limit number is 50 or less. In addition, in the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is one, and when the remaining number up to the advantageous upper limit number is 80 or less, the transition condition to the ending effect state is satisfied. In the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is 2, and when the remaining number up to the advantageous upper limit number is 100 or less, the transition condition to the ending effect state is satisfied. In the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is 3 or more, and when the remaining number up to the advantageous upper limit number is 150 or less, the transition condition to the ending effect state is satisfied.

As described above, in the slot machine 10, the conditions for shifting to the ending effect state differ depending on the number of stocks. Specifically, in the slot machine 10, the greater the number of stocks, the earlier the timing at which the condition for transitioning to the ending effect state is satisfied is established, and as a result, the period during which the condition is controlled to the ending effect state becomes longer (the number of variable games). Will increase).

Next, the reverse effect state will be described.
As shown in FIG. 21, the reverse production state in the slot machine 10 is a production state in which the player stays until 10 variable games are played. In the slot machine 10, the specific value does not change in the reverse effect state. In the slot machine 10, the special value does not change in the reverse effect state. As described above, in the present embodiment, the specific value does not change when controlled to the reverse effect state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the specific value is "1", the reversal effect state is controlled. However, in the slot machine 10, in the reverse effect state, the end lottery is not performed even when the specific value reaches "1". Further, in the slot machine 10, in the reverse production state, the number of stocks may increase according to the lottery result of the winning combination lottery. For example, in the slot machine 10, a stock lottery is performed when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed in the reverse production state. Then, in the slot machine 10, when the stock lottery is won, 1 is added to the stock number and the stock number is increased.

In the slot machine 10, when the variable game is played 10 times in the reverse effect state, the reverse victory lottery is performed. In the slot machine 10, when the reverse winning lottery is won, even if the special value does not reach the privilege value (“0” in the present embodiment), the reverse effect state shifts to the victory effect state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the reverse winning lottery is won, the reverse producing state is shifted to the winning producing state regardless of the special value. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the reverse victory lottery is not won, the reverse production state shifts to the confrontation production state. In this way, after the end of the reversal effect state, the state shifts to the confrontation effect state or the victory effect state. However, when the stock is consumed to shift to the reversal effect state, even if the slot machine 10 is not won in the reversal victory lottery, the slot machine 10 does not shift from the reversal effect state to the confrontation effect state, It shifts to the victory production state.

Next, the revival effect state will be described.
As shown in FIG. 21, the revival effect state in the slot machine 10 is an effect state in which the player stays until five variable games are played. In the slot machine 10, the specific value does not change in the revival effect state. In the slot machine 10, the special value does not change in the revival effect state. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the specific value is "1", it is controlled to the revival effect state. However, in the slot machine 10, in the revival effect state, the end lottery is not performed even when the specific value reaches "1".

For example, when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs a companion effect command that can specify the first companion effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the first companion effect is executed.

In the case of the competition production state, the main control CPU 40a may perform a stock lottery. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a performs a stock lottery when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. When the stock lottery is won, the main control CPU 40a updates the information capable of specifying the number of stocks (hereinafter referred to as stock information). The main control CPU 40a updates the stock information by adding 1 to the number of stocks that can be specified from the stock information. On the other hand, when the stock lottery is not won, the stock information is not updated. When the stock information is updated, the control information that can specify the updated stock number can be stored in the output buffer. In the case of such a configuration, it is possible to cause an effect device (for example, the effect display device 15) controlled by the sub-control CPU 41a to perform an effect according to the number of stocks (for example, an effect that notifies the number of stocks).

Further, in the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a performs a reduction lottery of a specific value that determines the amount of reduction of the specific value when the normal re-play combination wins in three consecutive variable games. However, the main control CPU 40a does not perform the reduction lottery of the specific value even if the specific replay combination is won in the three consecutive variable games, if the specific update information is stored in the main control RAM 40c. .. The specific update information is information stored in the main control RAM 40c when the special value is not updated after the specific value is updated, and specifies that the special value is not updated after the specific value is updated. Corresponds to possible information. The specific update information stored in the main control RAM 40c is erased when the special value is updated. As described above, in the present embodiment, the update of the specific value is limited until the special update condition is satisfied and the special value is updated after the specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value is updated.

In the specific value decrease lottery, the decrease amount of the specific value is determined from the values “0” and “1 or more”. When “0” is determined in the reduction lottery of the specific value, it is determined that the specific value is not reduced. There are a plurality of “1 or more” values that can be determined in the reduction lottery of the specific value. Then, when the value of “1 or more” is determined in the reduction lottery of the specific value, the main control CPU 40a performs a specific subtraction process of subtracting a value corresponding to the decrease amount of the specific value from the specific value, and the main control RAM 40c stores it. Update the stored specific value. In this way, the main control CPU 40a updates the specific value by performing the specific subtraction process of subtracting the subtraction value (specific subtraction value) subtracted from the specific value from the specific value. When the value to be subtracted from the specific value is equal to or larger than the specific value before the subtraction, the main control CPU 40a sets the specific value after performing the specific subtraction process to "1 (lower limit value of specific value)". When the specific value has reached the lower limit, the main control CPU 40a does not perform the specific subtraction process. In the present embodiment, the “decrease amount of the specific value” is the same value as the value subtracted from the specific value. That is, the “decrease amount of the specific value” corresponds to a subtraction value (specific subtraction value) subtracted from the specific value.

In addition, the main control CPU 40a, even when the normal re-play combination is won in three consecutive variable games, when the main control RAM 40c stores the companion effect information capable of specifying the first companion effect, Do not perform a reduction draw for a specific value. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the first companion effect is executed, the specific value reduction lottery is not performed by the main control CPU 40a, and the specific subtraction process is not performed.

In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines the subtraction value to be subtracted from the specific value by performing the decrease lottery of the specific value, so it can be seen that the subtraction value to be subtracted from the specific value is determined by the lottery. Further, after the “decreasing amount of the specific value” is determined, the subtracted value is subtracted from the specific value, and the specific value changes. Therefore, the “amount of decrease in the specific value” corresponds to “amount of change in the specific value” or “a change value for changing the specific value (specific change value)”. It can be said that the main control CPU 40a determines the specific change value for changing the specific value by performing the reduction lottery of the specific value. Further, in the present embodiment, a reduction lottery of a specific value is performed when a normal re-game combination is won in three consecutive variable games, and a subtraction value to be subtracted from the specific value is determined by the lottery. Further, in the present embodiment, when the specific value is subtracted, the specific value approaches “1” which is the predetermined value. That is, subtracting and updating the specific value corresponds to updating the specific value so as to approach the predetermined value. Then, in the present embodiment, the first specific update condition is satisfied when the normal re-game combination is won in three consecutive variable games.

Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the main control RAM 40c stores information (hereinafter, referred to as first consecutive number information) capable of specifying the number of consecutive variable games in which the normal re-play combination is won. When the normal re-game combination is won, the main control CPU 40a updates the first continuous count information by adding 1 to the identifiable value from the first continuous count information in the confrontation effect state. Incidentally, the main control CPU 40a initializes the first consecutive number information when the identifiable value from the updated first consecutive number information reaches "3". In addition, the main control CPU 40a initializes the first consecutive number information when the normal re-game combination is not won. The main control CPU 40a sets the initial value "0" to the number of times that can be specified from the first consecutive number information, and initializes the first consecutive number information. The main control CPU 40a can specify whether or not the normal re-gaming combination has won in three consecutive variable games based on the first consecutive number information.

In the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a performs a specific value increase lottery that determines the increase amount of the specific value when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games. Further, in the case of the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a carries out an increase lottery of a specific value when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. However, the main control CPU 40a increases the specific value by lottery when the specific update information is stored in the main control RAM 40c even when the winning combination of the bell role or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games. Do not do. Similarly, the main control CPU 40a does not perform the increase lottery of the specific value even if the winning of the winning combination of the cherry or the watermelon is permitted, if the specific update information is stored in the main control RAM 40c. As described above, in the present embodiment, the update of the specific value is limited until the special update condition is satisfied and the special value is updated after the specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value is updated.

In the specific value increase lottery, the increase amount of the specific value is determined from "0" and "1 or more". When "0" is determined in the specific value increase lottery, it is determined that the specific value is not increased. There are a plurality of “1 or more” values that can be determined in the increase lottery of the specific value. Then, when a value of “1 or more” is determined in the increase lottery of the specific value, the main control CPU 40a performs a specific addition process of adding a value according to the increase amount of the specific value to the specific value, and the main control RAM 40c stores it. Update the stored specific value. In this way, the main control CPU 40a updates the specific value by performing the specific addition process of adding the additional value (specific additional value) to be added to the specific value to the specific value. By the way, when the value to be added to the specific value is equal to or more than the value from the specific value before addition to the upper limit value (when the specific value before addition is “4”, the value up to the upper limit value is “3”), The main control CPU 40a sets the specific value after performing the specific addition process to "7 (upper limit of specific value)". When the specific value reaches the upper limit, the main control CPU 40a does not perform the specific addition process. In the present embodiment, the “increase amount of the specific value” is the same value as the value added to the specific value. That is, the “increase amount of the specific value” corresponds to an additional value (specific additional value) to be added to the specific value.

Note that the main control CPU 40a stores the companion effect information that can specify the first companion effect in the main control RAM 40c even when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games. If there is, a specific value increase lottery will not be conducted. Similarly, if the main control RAM 40c stores the companion effect information that can specify the first companion effect, the main control CPU 40a sets a specific value even if the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. No additional lottery. As described above, in the slot machine 10, when the first fellow effect is executed, the main control CPU 40a does not perform the increase lottery of the specific value and does not perform the specific addition process.

In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines the additional value to be added to the specific value by performing the increase lottery of the specific value, so it can be seen that the additional value to be added to the specific value is determined by the lottery. Further, after the “increasing amount of the specific value” is determined, the additional value is added to the specific value and the specific value changes. Therefore, the “specific value increase amount” corresponds to the “specific value change amount” or the “change value for changing the specific value (specific change value)”. It can be said that the main control CPU 40a determines the specific change value for changing the specific value by performing the increase lottery of the specific value. In addition, in the present embodiment, when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed, an increase lottery of a specific value is performed. The added value to be added to the specific value is determined by lottery. In addition, in the present embodiment, when added to the specific value, the specific value moves away from the predetermined value “1”. That is, adding and updating the specific value corresponds to updating the specific value away from the predetermined value. Then, in the present embodiment, the second specific update condition is satisfied when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. To do. As described above, in the present embodiment, the specific update conditions include the first specific update condition and the second specific update condition.

Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the main control RAM 40c stores information (hereinafter, referred to as second consecutive number information) capable of specifying the number of times the variable game in which the winning combination of the bell role and the bell replaying role is won is consecutive. When the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won, the main control CPU 40a updates the second consecutive number information by adding 1 to the identifiable value from the second consecutive number information in the confrontation effect state. Incidentally, the main control CPU 40a initializes the second consecutive number information when the identifiable value from the updated second consecutive number information reaches "3". Further, the main control CPU40a initializes the second consecutive number information when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is not won. The main control CPU 40a sets the initial value "0" to the number of times that can be specified from the second consecutive number information, and initializes the second consecutive number information. The main control CPU 40a can specify whether or not the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination has won in three consecutive variable games based on the second consecutive number information.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the change value for changing the specific value is determined by the main control CPU 40a performing the specific value decreasing lottery or the specific value increasing lottery. In the present embodiment, when a normal re-game combination is won in three consecutive variable games, a specific value decrease lottery is performed, and a change value for changing the specific value is determined by lottery. In addition, if the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, or if the winning of the Cherry role or the Watermelon role is allowed, an increase lottery of a specific value will be performed and the specific value will be increased. The change value to be changed is determined by lottery. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the normal replay combination wins in three consecutive variable games, when the bell role or bell replay combination wins in three consecutive variation games, or the cherry combination or watermelon. If the winning of the winning combination is permitted, the specific update condition is satisfied. In this way, the main control CPU 40a randomly determines a change value (specific change value) that changes the specific value when the specific update condition is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines a change value for changing the specific value (specific change value), whereby the function as the specific change value determining unit is realized. Further, in the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a updates the specific value stored in the main control RAM 40c, thereby realizing a function as a specific value updating unit for updating the specific value. As described above, in the present embodiment, the specific value updating means updates the specific value by changing the specific value in accordance with the specific change value determined by the specific change value determining means.

Further, in the present embodiment, the case where the winning of the bell re-play combination is allowed corresponds to the case where the lottery result of the combination lottery is the specific lottery result. In the slot machine 10, if the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, if the stop button is operated in the pushing order (predetermined operation order) for winning the bell re-playing combination, the bell re-playing combination is There is a case where the second specific update condition is satisfied among the specific update conditions after winning the prize. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is permitted, when the stop button is operated in the operation sequence for winning the normal re-playing combination (the operation sequence different from the predetermined operation sequence). The normal re-gaming combination may be won, and the first specific update condition may be satisfied among the specific update conditions. As described above, in the present embodiment, in the case where the lottery result of the combination lottery is the specific lottery result, the second specific update condition may be satisfied when the stop operation is performed in the predetermined operation order, When the stop operation is performed in an operation order different from the predetermined operation order, the first specific update condition may be satisfied.

When the variable game is played in the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a stores control information capable of specifying a specific value (hereinafter, referred to as a specific value command) in the output buffer.
When the specific value command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the meter image Ga having the content according to the specific value that can be specified from the specific value command is displayed. For example, when the sub-control CPU 41a specifies that the specific value is "1" from the input specific value command, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the meter image Ga shown in FIG. .. In the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a controls so that the meter image Ga is displayed, so that a function as a specific effect control unit that controls execution of the specific effect is realized.

When the content of the meter image Ga is changed, that is, when the specific value that can be specified from the specific value command is changed, the sub-control CPU 41a has a timing before changing the content of the meter image Ga before the specific change effect. The effect display device 15 is controlled so as to be executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the effect before the specific change of the content according to the increase or decrease of the specific value (whether the specific value increases or decreases) is executed. However, when the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 to execute the special pre-change effect, it does not control the effect display device 15 to execute the specific pre-change effect. That is, the special pre-change effect is executed with priority over the specific pre-change effect.

Further, in the case of the confrontation effect state, and when the specific value has reached a predetermined value, the main control CPU 40a may perform an end lottery. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a performs the end lottery when the normal re-gaming combination is won. When winning the end lottery, the main control CPU 40a stores control information indicating that the end lottery has been won (hereinafter referred to as the end win command) in the output buffer. When the final lottery is won and the number of stocks that can be specified from the stock information is 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the number of stocks that can be specified from the stock information, and updates the stock information. .. Further, the main control CPU 40a updates the revival effect state to the identifiable effect state information. As a result, the confrontation effect state is ended, and the revival effect state is controlled. In this way, even when the end lottery is won, if the number of stocks is 1 or more, the advantageous effect state is continued without ending the advantageous effect state. In this way, even if the final lottery is won by subtracting the stock number, the advantageous effect state continues, so that the stock is consumed and the revival effect state is entered. In addition, when the stock is consumed and a transition is made to the revival effect state, the main control CPU 40a stores information capable of specifying that the stock has been consumed (hereinafter referred to as stock consumption information) in the main control RAM 40c. The stock consumption information is stored in the main control RAM 40c until the transition to the winning effect state.

On the other hand, when the final lottery is won and the number of stocks that can be specified from the stock information is 0, the main control CPU 40a carries out a resurrection lottery. In this way, when the final lottery is won, the main control CPU 40a carries out a revival lottery. The winning probability of the resurrection lottery performed by the main control CPU 40a differs depending on the special value (shown in FIG. 13B). Then, when the number of stocks is 0, if the final lottery is won and the revival lottery is not won, the main control CPU 40a updates the normal effect state to effectable state information that can be specified. As a result, the confrontation effect state ends, and the normal effect state is controlled. In this way, when the end lottery is won, the advantageous effect state may end. Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the number of stocks is 0, the end lottery is won, and when the revival lottery is not won, the advantageous effect state is finished. In addition, when updating the normal effect state to identifiable effect state information, the main control CPU 40a initializes the advantageous consecutive number information.

When the advantageous effect state ends and the normal effect state is controlled, the main control CPU 40a erases the stored contents of the main control RAM 40c regarding the advantageous effect state. For example, the main control CPU 40a erases the companion information when the companion information is stored in the main control RAM 40c. Similarly, when the advantageous effect state ends and the normal effect state is controlled, the sub-control CPU 41a erases the stored content of the sub-control RAM 41c regarding the advantageous effect state. For example, the sub-control CPU 41a deletes the sub-friend information when the sub-friend information is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c.

On the other hand, when the number of stocks is 0 and the final lottery is won and the revival lottery is won, the main control CPU 40a updates the revival effect state to the identifiable effect state information. As a result, the confrontation effect state is ended, and the revival effect state is controlled. In this way, even if the end lottery is won, if the rehabilitation lottery is won, the advantageous effect state is continued without ending the advantageous effect state.

When the end winning command is input, the sub control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the ending effect is executed. When the end winning command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control so as to shift to the normal effect state or the revival effect state after the ending effect is executed. Specifically, when an end winning command is input and an effect state command that can specify a normal effect state is input, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the effect display to shift to the normal effect state after the ending effect is executed. Control the device 15. On the other hand, when the end winning command is input and the production state command capable of specifying the revival production state is input, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the production display device 15 to shift to the revival production state after the ending production is executed. To control. Incidentally, the situation of inputting the end winning command and inputting the production state command capable of specifying the normal production state corresponds to the situation of winning the end lottery and not winning the revival lottery. On the other hand, the situation of inputting the end winning command and inputting the production state command capable of specifying the revival production state means the situation where the final lottery is won and the revival lottery is won, or when the number of stocks is 1 or more. Corresponds to the situation where the final lottery was won.

Further, in the case of the confrontation effect state, and when the specific value has reached the predetermined value, the main control CPU 40a may perform the reverse lottery. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a performs a reverse lottery when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. When the reverse rotation lottery is won, the main control CPU 40a updates the reverse rotation effect state to the specifiable state information. As a result, the confrontation effect state ends, and the reversal effect state is controlled.

In the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a performs a special value decrease lottery that determines the decrease amount of the special value when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games. Further, in the case of the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a performs a special value reduction lottery when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. In the special value reduction lottery, the reduction amount of the special value is determined from "0" and "1 or more". When "0" is determined in the special value reduction lottery, it is determined that the special value is not reduced. There are a plurality of “1 or more” values that can be determined in the special value reduction lottery. When the value of "1 or more" is determined in the special value decrease lottery, the main control CPU 40a performs a special subtraction process of subtracting a value corresponding to the decrease amount of the special value from the special value, and stores it in the main control RAM 40c. Update the stored special value. When the value to be subtracted from the special value is larger than the special value before the subtraction, the main control CPU 40a sets the special value after the special subtraction process to "0". In the present embodiment, the “reduction amount of the special value” has the same value as the value subtracted from the special value. That is, the “decrease amount of the special value” corresponds to a subtraction value (special subtraction value) subtracted from the special value.

When the value of “1 or more” is determined in the special value reduction lottery, the main control CPU 40a erases the specific update information when the specific update information is stored in the main control RAM 40c. In this way, after the specific value is updated and the specific update information is stored in the main control RAM 40c, the specific update information is continuously stored in the main control RAM 40c until the special value is updated, and after the specific value is updated, Renewal of specific values continues to be restricted. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, after the special value is updated, the special value is updated regardless of whether the specific value is updated. That is, in this embodiment, after the special update condition is satisfied and the special value is updated, the special value may be updated even if the specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value is not updated.

The special value reduction lottery performed by the main control CPU 40a differs depending on whether or not the companion effect information that can specify the second companion effect is stored in the main control RAM 40c. Specifically, in the special value reduction lottery performed when the companion effect information that can specify the second companion effect is stored in the main control RAM 40c, the companion effect information that can specify the second companion effect in the main control RAM 40c. Compared with the special value reduction lottery performed when is not stored, the special value reduction amount is likely to be large. That is, when the main control RAM 40c stores companion effect information that can specify the second companion effect, when the main control RAM 40c does not store companion effect information that can specify the second companion effect. In contrast, it is easy to determine a large value as a subtraction value to be subtracted from the special value in the special value reduction lottery. Thereby, when the second companion effect is executed, the amount of decrease in the special value is likely to be large.

In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines the subtraction value to be subtracted from the special value by performing the special value reduction lottery, so it can be seen that the subtraction value to be subtracted from the special value is determined by the lottery. Further, after the "amount of decrease of the special value" is determined, the subtracted value is subtracted from the special value, and the special value changes. Therefore, the “subtraction amount of the special value” corresponds to the “variation amount of the special value” or the “variation value for changing the special value (special variation value)”. It can be said that the main control CPU 40a determines the special change value for changing the special value by performing the special value reduction lottery. In addition, in the present embodiment, a special value reduction lottery is performed when a bell role or a bell re-playing role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when a winning role of a cherry role or a watermelon role is allowed. The subtraction value to be subtracted from the special value is determined by lottery. In addition, in the present embodiment, a special value reduction lottery is performed when a bell role or a bell re-playing role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when a winning role of a cherry role or a watermelon role is allowed. The subtraction value to be subtracted from the special value is determined by lottery.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the special renewal condition is satisfied when the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. The special update conditions of the present embodiment allow the first special update condition that is established when the winning combination of the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, and the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role. In this case, there is a second special update condition. In the slot machine 10, in order to fulfill the first special update condition, in addition to allowing the winning of the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role in the role lottery, in addition to the push order for winning the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role. It is necessary to operate the stop button. That is, in the present embodiment, the first special update condition is satisfied when the lottery result of the winning combination lottery is the first special result and the stop operation section is operated in the specific order. Further, in the slot machine 10, in order to satisfy the second special update condition, it is necessary to allow the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role in the role lottery, and the order of operating the stop buttons is not required. That is, in the present embodiment, the second special update condition is satisfied when the lottery result of the winning combination lottery is the second special result, whichever order the stop operating units may be operated. As described above, in the slot machine 10, the probability that the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed in the winning lottery is lower than the probability that the winning of the winning role of Bell or the replay game is allowed in the winning lottery. That is, in the present embodiment, the probability that the lottery result of the combination lottery is the second special result is lower than the probability that the lottery result of the combination lottery is the first special result.

Further, in the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines the change value (special change value) for changing the special value, whereby the function as the special change value determining unit is realized. Further, in the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a updates the special value stored in the main control RAM 40c, thereby realizing a function as a special value updating unit for updating the special value. As described above, in the present embodiment, the special value updating means updates the special value by changing the special value in accordance with the special change value determined by the special change value determining means when the special update condition is satisfied. ..

When the variable game is played in the confrontation effect state, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as a special value command) capable of specifying the special value in the output buffer.
Then, when the special value command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the enemy soldier number image Gb having the content corresponding to the special value that can be specified from the special value command is displayed. For example, when the sub-control CPU 41a identifies that the special value is “426” from the input special value command, the sub-control CPU 41a displays the enemy soldier number image Gb having the characters “remaining enemy soldier number: 426”. Then, the effect display device 15 is controlled. In the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a controls so that the enemy soldier image Gb is displayed, so that a function as special effect control means for controlling execution of the special effect is realized.

When the content of the enemy soldier number image Gb may change, the sub-control CPU 41a may control the effect display device 15 so that the effect before the special change is executed. Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a makes a special change when a winning combination of a bell role or a bell re-gaming role is allowed in two consecutive variable games and the winning of the bell role or a bell re-gaming role is allowed. The effect display device 15 may be controlled so that the pre-effect is executed. In addition, the sub-control CPU 41a may control the effect display device 15 so that the pre-special change effect is executed when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed.

When executing the special pre-change effect, the sub-control CPU 41a executes the special pre-change effect until the stop operation command is input three times after the variation game start command is input so that the special pre-change effect is executed. To control. Then, when the stop operation command is input three times after the variation game start command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a is executed when the special value command is not input (when the special value does not change) or when the special value does not decrease. The effect display device 15 is controlled so that the effect before the special change is executed. When the stop operation command is input three times after the variable game start command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a is executed when the special value command is input (when the special value changes) or when the special value decreases. The effect display device 15 is controlled so that the effect before the special change is executed. Specifically, when the special value identifiable from the input special value command is “1 or more”, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the unachieved pre-special change effect is executed. .. On the other hand, when the special value that can be specified from the input special value command is “0”, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the achievement type pre-special change effect is executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the second achievement-type pre-special change effect is executed if the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. On the other hand, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the first achievement type pre-special change effect is executed when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is not permitted.

In addition, when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is not allowed, the case where the special value that can be specified from the special value command is “0” means that the bell or bell is replayed in three consecutive variable games. This corresponds to the case where the special value after the decrease reaches “0” due to the decrease of the special value when the game combination is won. Therefore, in the slot machine 10, the special value is updated when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, and the special pre-change production effect when the special value reaches the privilege value Is different from the effect contents of the pre-special change effect when the special value is updated and the special value reaches the privilege value when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. That is, in the present embodiment, when the first special update condition is satisfied, the special value is updated, and when the special value reaches the special value, the effect content of the special effect is that the second special update condition is satisfied. When the special value is updated and the special value reaches the privilege value, at least a part of the special effect is different from the special effect content.

In the slot machine 10, the special value is set to be a predetermined value in a case where the winning combination of the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. Even if the bonus value is reached, the effect contents before the special change until the remaining one reel stops are the same common effect contents. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, the special value is set to a predetermined value in a case where the winning combination of the bell role or the bell-replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed. The effect contents before the special change after the remaining one reel is stopped are different from when the bonus value is reached. That is, in the present embodiment, the special value is updated when the first special update condition is satisfied and the special value reaches the privilege value, and the special value is updated when the second special update condition is satisfied. In the case where the special value reaches the privilege value, the effect contents of the special effect until the remaining one reel of the plurality of reels stops are the same. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the special value is updated when the first special update condition is satisfied and the special value reaches the privilege value, and the special value is updated when the second special update condition is satisfied. When the special value reaches the privilege value, the contents of the special effect after the operation of the stop operation unit for instructing the stop of the remaining one reel is performed are different. As described above, in the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a performs the control to execute the pre-special change effect as the special effect, thereby realizing the function as the special effect control unit that controls the execution of the special effect.

In the case of the confrontation effect state, and when the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value, the main control CPU 40a updates the victory effect state to the identifiable effect state information. As a result, the confrontation effect state ends, and the victory effect state is controlled. In this way, when the special value reaches the privilege value, the winning effect state is controlled and the privilege is awarded.

Further, in the case of the confrontation effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control related to the display of the expected winning image GC. Incidentally, when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs a mode pattern designation command, the sub-control CPU 41a stores, in the sub-control RAM 41c, secondary mode pattern information capable of specifying the mode pattern designated by the mode pattern designation command. In addition, when the sub-control CPU number command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a stores the sub-coupling number information that can specify the number of condominiums specified by the number-of-consultation command.

Then, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the type of expected winning image GC to be displayed in each of the first area Gd1 to the fifth area Gd5, when the number of consecutive games command that specifies “1” as the number of consecutive games is input.

Hereinafter, the bell re-game navi lottery) will be performed. At this time, the main control CPU 40a performs the bell re-play navigation lottery with a winning probability according to the navigation rate of the bell re-play combination in the confrontation effect state during the stay. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a specifies the navigation ratio of the bell re-playing combination in the confrontation effect state in the number of consecutive villas that can be identified from the number of consecutive villas in the aspect pattern that can be identified from the aspect pattern information. For example, as shown in FIG. 16, when the mode pattern identifiable from the mode pattern information is the mode pattern TP2 and the number of consecutive vacations that can be specified from the number of consecutive vacations is “2”, the main control CPU 40a It is specified that the navigation rate of the Bell re-gaming combination is “40%”. Then, the main control CPU 40a performs the bell replay navigation lottery based on the specified navigation rate of the bell replay combination.

However, the winning probability of the bell re-game navigation lottery performed by the main control CPU 40a differs depending on whether or not companion effect information that can specify the third companion effect is stored in the main control RAM 40c. In the slot machine 10, the winning probability of the bell re-game navigation lottery performed when the companion effect information capable of specifying the third companion effect is stored in the main control RAM 40c can specify the third companion effect in the main control RAM 40c. It is higher than the winning probability of the Bell re-game navigator lottery that is performed when no companion performance information is stored.

For example, in the slot machine 10, when the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination specified from the mode pattern information and the number of consecutive games is “40%”, the companion effect information that can specify the third companion effect is stored in the main control RAM 40c. When this is done, the bell re-game navigation lottery is performed with a winning probability of “50% (=40%+10%)”. On the other hand, in the slot machine 10, when the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination specified from the mode pattern information and the number of consecutive games is “40%”, the companion effect information that can specify the third companion effect is stored in the main control RAM 40c. If not, the bell re-play navigation lottery is performed with a winning probability of “40% (=40%+0%)”. In this way, when the third companion effect is executed, it is easy to be notified of the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the bell re-playing combination.

When the bell replay navigation lottery is won, the main control CPU 40a causes the payout display unit 37 to display operation information for informing the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the bell replay combination. On the other hand, when the player does not win the Bell replay navigation lottery, the main control CPU 40a causes the payout display unit 37 to display operation information for informing the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the normal replay. Although there are a plurality of stop button operation sequences for winning the normal re-gaming combination when the winning of the bell re-gaming combination is permitted, the main control CPU 40a causes the main control CPU 40a to operate the stop button for winning the normal re-gaming combination. The payout display unit 37 is caused to display operation information for notifying any one of the operation orders. As described above, in the present embodiment, the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the Bell re-playing combination is notified when the Bell re-playing navigation lottery is won, while the case where the Bell re-playing navigation lottery is not won The operation sequence of the stop button for winning the Bell replay combination is not notified.

Then, in the confrontation production state, when the winning of the bell re-play combination is allowed, the sub-control CPU 41a executes the navigation production for informing the operation sequence that can be specified from the operation mode command, so that the production display device 15 is executed. To control. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the white navigation effect is executed.

The main control CPU 40a updates the stock information by adding 1 to the number of stocks that can be specified from the stock information. On the other hand, when the stock lottery is not won, the stock information is not updated.

Further, in the case of the winning effect state, when the number of times that can be specified from the winning stay number information reaches “0”, the main control CPU 40a updates the effect state information. Specifically, when the number of villas that can be specified from the number of villas has reached 15, the main control CPU 40a updates the complete winning effect state to identifiable effect state information. On the other hand, when the number of villas that can be specified from the number of villas does not reach 15, the main control CPU 40a updates the confrontation effect state to identifiable effect state information. At this time, the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the number of condominiums that can be specified from the number of condominiums, and updates the number of condominiums information. In this way, even when the confrontation effect state is shifted to the victory effect state, after the victory effect state is ended, the state is changed to one of the confrontation effect state and the complete victory effect state, and again to the specific state. Will be done. In the slot machine 10, the number of consecutive villas that can be specified from the number of consecutive villas stored in the main control RAM 40c when in the winning effect state is the number of times when the winning effect state is entered without transitioning to the normal effect state.

In the ending effect state, the sub control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the ending effect is executed. In the present embodiment, the ending effect corresponds to the privilege effect. Then, in the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the execution of the ending effect to realize a function as a privilege effect control unit that controls the execution of the privilege effect. Further, in the slot machine 10, when controlled to the ending effect state, it is continuously controlled to the ending effect state until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number. Therefore, after the ending effect is executed, the advantageous consecutive number is the advantageous upper limit number. It will be controlled to the ending production state until it reaches. That is, in the present embodiment, after the privilege effect is executed, the specific state is continuously controlled until the third ending condition is satisfied.

Here, control regarding notification of operation information and navigation effect in the reverse effect state, the revival effect state, the victory effect state, the complete victory effect state, and the ending effect state will be collectively described.
In the case of any of the reversing effect state, the reviving effect state, the winning effect state, the complete winning effect state and the ending effect state, and the winning of only the normal re-game combination is allowed, the main control CPU 40a determines the first The payout display section 37 is caused to display operation information for notifying any operation order of the pressing order to the sixth pressing order. Then, it is possible to specify from the winning command that the normal re-gaming combination is allowed to win in any of the reversing effect state, the revival effect state, the victory effect state, the complete victory effect state and the ending effect state. In this case, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the navigation effect informing the operation sequence that can be specified from the operation mode command is executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the navigation effect of either one of the blue navigation effect and the white navigation effect is executed.

Further, in any one of the reversing effect state, the reviving effect state, the winning effect state, the complete winning effect state and the ending effect state, and if the winning of the promotion re-game combination is allowed, the main control CPU 40a is promoted. The payout display unit 37 displays operation information for informing the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the replay combination. Then, in any one of the reversing effect state, the reviving effect state, the winning effect state, the complete winning effect state, and the ending effect state, and if the winning of the promotion re-game combination is allowed, the sub-control CPU 41a performs the operation. The effect display device 15 is controlled so that the navigation effect that notifies the operation order that can be specified from the mode command is executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that one of the navi effects of the blue navi effect and the white nav effect is executed.

Further, in any one of the reversing effect state, the reviving effect state, the winning effect state, the complete winning effect state, and the ending effect state, and if the winning of the bell role is allowed, the main control CPU 40a, the bell role. The payout display unit 37 is caused to display operation information for notifying the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the prize. Then, in any one of the reversing effect state, the reviving effect state, the winning effect state, the complete winning effect state, and the ending effect state, and if the winning of the bell role is allowed, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the operation mode command. The effect display device 15 is controlled so that the navigation effect informing the operation sequence that can be specified from is executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that one of the yellow and white navigation effects is executed.

In the case where any one of the reversal effect state, the revival effect state, the victory effect state, the complete victory effect state and the ending effect state, and the winning of the bell re-play combination is allowed, the main control CPU 40a normally operates. The payout display unit 37 displays operation information for informing the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the replay combination. Although there are a plurality of stop button operation sequences for winning the normal re-gaming combination when the winning of the bell re-gaming combination is permitted, the main control CPU 40a causes the main control CPU 40a to operate the stop button for winning the normal re-gaming combination. The payout display unit 37 is caused to display operation information for notifying any one of the operation orders. Then, in any one of the reversing effect state, the reviving effect state, the winning effect state, the complete winning effect state, and the ending effect state, and if the winning of the bell re-gaming combination is allowed, the sub-control CPU 41a operates. The effect display device 15 is controlled so that the navigation effect that notifies the operation order that can be specified from the mode command is executed. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 15 so that the white navigation effect is executed.

Here, with reference to FIG. 24, the manner of the change of the specific value and the change of the special value will be described together with the period during which the update of the specific value is limited.
At the timing t11 in the confrontation production state, when the normal re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games and the value of "1 or more" is determined in the specific value decrease lottery, the specific value Is reduced. When the specific value decreases at the timing t11, the change of the specific value is limited. The period during which the change of the specific value is limited from the timing t11 is a period until the special value changes at a timing t13 described later. In addition, at the timing t12 before the change of the specific value is limited at the timing t11 and before the special value is changed at the timing t13, when the normal re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games, The reduction lottery is not performed and the specific value does not change.

Further, at timing t13, if the bell role or the bell re-gaming prize is won in three consecutive variable games and the value of “1 or more” is determined in the special value decrease lottery, the special value decreases. To do. When the special value changes due to the decrease of the special value, the change of the specific value that has been restricted from the timing t11 is released. By the way, even if the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive fluctuation games at the timing t13, if the special value decrease lottery determines "0" and the special value does not change, Value changes continue to be limited. For example, if the special value changes at the timing t14 described later, the change of the specific value continues to be limited until the timing t14.

Further, after the special value is updated at the timing t13 and before the specific value is updated at the timing t14, when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games, the special value reduction lottery is performed. Is done. When a value of "1 or more" is determined in the special value decrease lottery, the special value decreases. In this way, after the special value is updated, the special value may be updated even if the specific value is not updated.

At a subsequent timing t15, if the normal re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games, a reduction lottery of a specific value is performed. If a value of "1 or more" is determined in this specific value reduction lottery, the specific value will be reduced and updating of the specific value will be restricted, but if "0" is determined in the specific value reduction lottery, the specific value will be Is not updated, and updating of a specific value is not restricted. Therefore, when the specific value is not updated at the timing t15, at the timing t16 before the special value is updated, the normal re-gaming combination wins in three consecutive variable games, and the specific value decreases. When the value of "1 or more" is determined by the lottery, the specific value decreases. Then, at the timing t16, the update of the specific value is again restricted due to the update of the specific value.

Next, based on FIG. 25(a) and FIG. 25(b), the effect contents of the pre-special change effect executed when the special update condition is satisfied and the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value will be described.
As shown in FIG. 25( a ), when the special combination value is reached and the special value reaches “0” when the winning combination of the bell combination or the bell re-playing combination is won in three consecutive variable games, all reels are Until the stop, the pre-special change effect is executed on the effect display device 25 with the common effect content. Similarly, as shown in FIG. 25( b ), when the special value is updated and the special value reaches “0” when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed, until all reels stop. The effect display device 25 executes the effect before the special change with the common effect content. The timing when all reels stop corresponds to the timing when the remaining one reel is instructed to stop.

However, after all reels have stopped, the special value is updated when the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, the special value reaches "0", and the Cherry role. Alternatively, at least a part of the effect contents of the pre-special change effect differs between when the special value is updated and the special value reaches “0” when the winning of the watermelon role is permitted. Specifically, if the special value is updated and the special value reaches “0” when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, when all reels are stopped, the first The achievement type pre-special change effect is executed on the effect display device 15, and the effect content of the special pre-change effect is the effect content specific to the first achievement type special pre-change effect. On the other hand, when the special value is updated and the special value reaches “0” when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed, after all reels are stopped, the second achievement type pre-special change effect is produced. The effect content of the pre-special change effect executed by the display device 15 is the effect content specific to the second achievement type pre-special change effect.

Next, based on FIG. 26, the relationship between the number of times of stocking and the effect execution timing at which the ending effect is executed by shifting to the ending effect state will be described.
In the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is “3 times” in the case of a confrontation production state, when the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number reaches 150, the ending The state shifts to the effect state, and the ending effect is executed on the effect display device 15. However, in the slot machine 10, the number of stocks is “0 to 2” even when the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number reaches 150 in the competition production state. In this case, the ending effect is not executed without shifting to the ending effect state.

Further, in the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is “2” and the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number is 100, in the case of the confrontation production state. , The ending effect is performed on the effect display device 15. However, in the slot machine 10, the number of stocks is “0” or “1” even when the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number is 100 in the competition production state. In the case of ", the ending effect is not executed, and the ending effect is not executed. By the way, even when the number of stocks is “2” when the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number is “2” in the confrontation production state, the advantageous consecutive number is advantageous. It is assumed that the number of stocks has increased and the number of stocks has become “3” before the number of variable games until reaching the upper limit number of times reaches 100. In this case, before the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number reaches 100, the ending effect state is entered and the ending effect is executed by the effect display device 15. ..

Further, in the slot machine 10, if the number of stocks is “1” and the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number is 80, in the case of the competition production state. , The ending effect is performed on the effect display device 15. However, in the slot machine 10, if the number of stock games is “0” even when the number of variable games until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number reaches 80 in the competition production state. Does not shift to the ending effect state, and the ending effect is not executed. As described above, in the slot machine 10, for example, when “1 time” is the first time and “3 times” is the second time out of the one or more times, the stock time is the first time. The effect execution timing when the ending effect is executed is a timing later than the effect execution timing when the ending effect is executed when the number of stocks is the second number. That is, in the present embodiment, the performance execution timing when the stock count is the first count of 1 or more is the timing after the performance execution timing when the stock count is the second count that is larger than the first count. Become.

Further, in the slot machine 10, when the number of stocks is “0” and the number of variable games until the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number is 50 in the case of the confrontation production state. , The ending effect is performed on the effect display device 15. As described above, in the slot machine 10, the effect execution timing at which the ending effect is executed when the number of stocks is one or more than the effect execution timing at which the ending effect is executed when the number of stocks is zero. It is the previous timing. That is, in the present embodiment, the effect execution timing when the stock count is 1 or more is earlier than the effect execution timing when the stock count is zero.

As described above, the effect execution timing at which the ending effect is executed before the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number varies depending on the stock number. That is, in the present embodiment, the effect execution timing at which the privilege effect is executed before the third end condition is satisfied varies depending on the number of stocks.

The slot machine 10 of this embodiment has the following effects.
(1) "Confrontation effect when winning the end lottery performed when the specific value updated when the specific update condition is satisfied reaches a predetermined value (when it is decided to end the specific state) By adopting a novel specification that "the state (specific state) ends", the interest can be improved. Further, the content of the meter image Ga (content of the specific effect) is not the content indicating the number of times of the fluctuating game until the first end condition is satisfied by winning the end lottery, but the content based on the specific value. Therefore, it is not possible to directly understand, from the meter image Ga, the number of times of the fluctuating game until the confrontation effect state ends. Therefore, it becomes difficult to specify how long the confrontation production state continues during the confrontation production state, and it is possible to give anxiety that the confrontation production state ends, and the confrontation production state continues. It is possible to increase the degree of attention to and enhance the interest. In addition, since the end lottery is performed when the specific value reaches the predetermined value, it is necessary to pay attention to what happens to the lottery result of the end lottery even if the specific value reaches the predetermined value, and to improve the interest You can If the second end condition is satisfied without the first end condition being satisfied, the confrontation effect state is temporarily ended, but the confrontation effect state is controlled again. As a result, it is possible to improve the enjoyment by also paying attention to how the confrontation effect state ends (whether the second end condition is satisfied as the end condition instead of the first end condition).

Furthermore, a plurality of confrontation effect states that can be controlled by the second end condition being satisfied without the first end condition being satisfied due to the control from the state different from the confrontation effect state to the confrontation effect state The navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in (the mode relating to the establishment of the specific update condition) is determined. Therefore, when the second ending condition is satisfied and the confrontation effect state is controlled again, the navigation rate of the bell replaying role may change, which is more interesting than when the navigation rate of the bell replaying role does not change. Further, it is possible to improve the enjoyment while suppressing the tiredness in the repeated show production state. In addition, since the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming role in a plurality of confrontation performance states is determined, the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming role is determined each time the second end condition is satisfied and the re-competition performance state is controlled again. Compared with the case where it is performed, it is possible to contribute to the reduction of the processing for determining the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination.

(2) When controlled to the confrontation effect state (specific state), the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination (a mode relating to the establishment of the specific update condition) in some of the confrontation effect states from the next onwards May be suggested. In this way, when the control is performed in the confrontation production state, the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination in the confrontation production state that can be controlled from now on is suggested in advance, so that the second end condition is satisfied and the next and subsequent confrontations. It is possible to increase the motivation to be controlled in the rendering state, and it becomes easier to enjoy the change in the navigation rate of the bell re-playing role, so that it becomes easier to improve the interest.

(3) The final lottery is won by determining the mode pattern in which the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination (mode related to the establishment of the specific update condition) in each confrontation effect state (specific state) of a plurality of times is determined. Then, the navigation ratio of the bell re-gaming combination in each of the plurality of confrontation effect states that can be controlled by the satisfaction of the second ending condition without the satisfaction of the first ending condition is determined. Therefore, it is possible to infer the mode pattern by inferring the change in the navigation rate of the bell replay combination. As a result, as a result, when the second finish condition is satisfied and the confrontation effect state is ended, the enjoyment of estimating the probability that the navigation rate of the bell re-playing role in the next confrontation effect state will be provided is provided. It is possible to improve the interest.

(4) When the second ending condition is satisfied and the confrontation effect state (specific state) is controlled again, the specific value is initialized and the specific value becomes a value different from the predetermined value. Therefore, for example, if the second end condition is satisfied while the specific value reaches the predetermined value, the specific value is initialized and changes to a situation where the predetermined value does not reach the predetermined value. It is possible to avoid a crisis situation that can be won. Therefore, when it is controlled to the confrontation effect state again, the expectation that the second end condition is satisfied is effectively increased, and when the second end condition is satisfied and the contrast effect state is controlled again. It is possible to entertain a new confrontation production state again, and effectively improve the interest.

(5) When the winning of the Bell re-gaming combination is allowed (when the lottery result of the part lottery is the specific drawing result), the stop operation is performed in the pushing order (predetermined operation order) for winning the Bell re-gaming combination. If the above can be performed, the second specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value can be updated so as to move away from the predetermined value. On the other hand, when the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, if the stop operation cannot be performed in the pushing order for winning the bell re-playing combination, the first specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value is set to the predetermined value. It can be updated to approach the value. In such a configuration, if the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination (a mode relating to the establishment of the specific renewal condition) is different, and if the winning of the bell re-gaming combination is allowed, the second specific renewal condition may be fulfilled. The probability that the operation order is notified is different. Accordingly, when the navigation rate of the bell re-play combination is different, the degree of difficulty of approaching the specific value to the predetermined value is different, and the degree of difficulty of moving the specific value away from the specific value is also different, and thus the specific value is close to the specific value. Not only that, but also attention can be paid to whether or not the specific value deviates from a predetermined value to improve the interest.

(6) When the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value, the winning effect state is controlled (a privilege is given), and the second ending condition is satisfied. Therefore, before the winning of the end lottery and the first ending condition are met, whether or not the special value reaches the privilege value, that is, whether the second ending condition is met, is paid attention to improve the interest. be able to. In this way, while increasing the interest by focusing on the change in the specific value, the interest can be improved by also focusing on the change in the special value that serves as a trigger for giving a control to the winning effect state (a trigger for granting the privilege). , You can effectively improve your interest.

(7) If the specific value has reached the predetermined value, the end lottery may be performed, and the confrontation effect state (specific state) may end and the normal effect state may be controlled. On the other hand, when the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value, the winning effect state is controlled (the privilege is given). Therefore, before the specific value reaches the predetermined value and wins the end lottery (before the end of the specific state is determined by the end lottery), the special value reaches the privilege value and the winning performance state It is possible to make people pay attention to whether they are controlled by, and to improve their interest.

Further, in the gaming machine configured as described above, it is difficult for the player's interest to improve when only the specific value relating to the end of the confrontation effect state changes, and only the specific value out of the specific value and the special value approaches the predetermined value. If it continues to change, it may be less interesting. Therefore, after the specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value is updated, the update of the specific value is limited until the special update condition is satisfied and the special value is updated. As a result, it is possible to prevent only the specific value of the specific value and the special value from changing unilaterally, and it becomes easier to entertain the change of the special value related to the award of the privilege, thereby suppressing a decrease in interest. It is possible to make the interest more interesting by focusing on the change in the specific value and the change in the special value.

(8) When the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value, the second end condition is satisfied and the confrontation effect state (specific state) is ended, but the second special end condition is satisfied and the confrontation is performed. When the production state ends, after the end of the confrontation production state, it is controlled to the confrontation production state again. Therefore, attention can be paid to whether the second end condition is satisfied as the end condition instead of the first end condition, and the interest can be improved. Further, even if the second end condition is satisfied, the game is again controlled to the confrontation effect state, so that it is simply enjoyed that the second end condition is satisfied and the condition is controlled to the victory effect state (the privilege is given). It is possible to improve the enjoyment.

(9) Even if the specific value related to the end lottery is not updated, the special value related to the transition to the winning effect state (granting of a privilege) may be continuously updated. Therefore, it is possible to expect that the special value will be continuously updated and to improve the interest. Further, for example, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered by creating a situation such as waiting for the update of the specific value related to the end lottery that is inconvenient for the player after the special value is updated.

(10) The content of the meter image Ga (content of the specific effect) does not indicate the number of times of the fluctuating game until the confrontation effect state (specific state) ends. Therefore, it is not possible to directly understand the number of fluctuating games until the end of the confrontation effect state from the contents of the meter image Ga. Therefore, it becomes difficult to specify how long the confrontation production state continues during the confrontation production state, and it is possible to give anxiety that the confrontation production state ends, and the confrontation production state continues. It is possible to increase the degree of attention to and enhance the interest. In addition, since the end lottery is performed when the specific value reaches the predetermined value, paying attention to whether the specific value reaches the predetermined value, even if the specific value reaches the predetermined value, the lottery of the end lottery It is possible to focus on what the results will be and improve the interest.

On the other hand, since the content of the enemy soldier number image Gb (content of the special effect) is based on the special value, it is possible to infer the special value from the content of the enemy soldier number image Gb. Therefore, in addition to the content of the meter image Ga, the content of the enemy soldier image Gb can be paid attention to improve the interest. In addition, the display of the number of enemy soldiers image Gb (the special effect is executed) changes the special value more than when the player cannot estimate the special value because the special value is only managed internally. Since the player can experience, it is possible to effectively raise the attention regarding the change in the special value and to enhance the interest.

(11) When the specific value has reached the predetermined value, the end lottery may be performed, and the confrontation effect state (specific state) may end and the normal effect state may be controlled. On the other hand, when the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value, the winning effect state is controlled (the privilege is given). Therefore, before the specific value reaches the predetermined value and wins the end lottery (before the end of the specific state is determined by the end lottery), the special value reaches the privilege value and the winning performance state It is possible to make people pay attention to whether they are controlled by, and to improve their interest.

In addition, when the special value reaches the privilege value, when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games (when the first special update condition is satisfied), the cherry role or the watermelon role When the winning is allowed (when the second special update condition is satisfied), at least a part of the effect contents of the effect before special change (special effect) differs. As a result, whether the special value has reached the privilege value due to the winning of the bell role or the bell re-gaming role in three consecutive variable games depending on the effect content of the pre-special change effect, the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is won. It is possible to determine whether or not the special value has reached the privilege value by being allowed. For this reason, it is possible to raise the degree of interest in the pre-special change effect and improve the interest.

(12) The special value reaches the predetermined privilege value in either of the case where the winning combination of the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won or the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed in three consecutive variable games. Even if it is done, the effect contents before the special change (special effect) until the last reel is stopped are the same. Therefore, it is possible to concentrate on the operation of the stop button (stop operation unit) until the last reel is stopped. In addition, after the last reel is stopped, a special value is given in a case where a winning combination of a bell role or a bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, or when a winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed. The effect contents of the pre-special change effect differ depending on whether or not has reached a predetermined privilege value. For this reason, it is possible to draw attention to the effect contents of the pre-special change effect after the operation of all the stop buttons is completed. In this way, since the effect contents of the special pre-change effect are branched in consideration of the progress of the variable game, it is possible to effectively improve the interest.

(13) To win the Bell role or Bell re-playing role in three consecutive variable games (the first special renewal condition is satisfied), winning of the Bell role or Bell re-playing role in the role lottery is allowed. In addition to the fact that the lottery result of the role lottery is the first special result, it is necessary to operate the stop button in the pushing order for winning the bell role or bell re-gaming role. On the other hand, if the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed (the second special update condition is established), the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed in the lottery (the result of the lottery is the second special). Result) and does not require the stop button sequence. That is, in addition to the difference in the lottery result of the role lottery, in the case where the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in the three consecutive variable games and the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed, There is also a difference in the necessity of the operation sequence of the stop button. In this way, in the case where the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won and the special update condition is satisfied, and when the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed to win and the special update condition is satisfied, in three consecutive variable games. By increasing the difference between and, it is possible to make a difference in attention to the establishment of the special update condition and effectively improve the interest.

(14) "The confrontation production state (specific state) ends when the final lottery that is performed when the specific value that changes in the lottery reaches a predetermined value is won (when it is determined to end the specific state) By adopting the innovative specification of "Yes", it is possible to improve the interest. Furthermore, when the number of times of shifting to the winning effect state without shifting to the normal effect state (the number of times the second end condition is satisfied without the first end condition being satisfied after being controlled to the specific state) has reached a predetermined number of times. In particular, until the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number (until the third ending condition is satisfied), the control is continuously controlled to the complete winning effect state (specific state). In this way, if the number of transitions to the winning production state without transitioning to the normal production state reaches the predetermined number of times, it is determined until the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number without winning the end lottery and ending the specific state. Since the state continues, attention can be paid to the number of times the state has transitioned to the winning production state without transitioning to the normal production state, and the interest can be improved.

(15) The number of transitions to the winning production state without transition to the normal production state (the number of times the second termination condition is satisfied without the first termination condition being satisfied after being controlled to the specific state) has reached a predetermined number. The display content of the subsequent effect display device 15 is different from the display content of the effect display device 15 before the number of times of shifting to the winning effect state without reaching the normal effect state reaches a predetermined number. For this reason, the number of times the display contents of the effect display device 15 (effect execution contents of the effect execution means) has shifted to the winning effect state without changing to the normal effect state has reached a predetermined number, that is, the advantageous consecutive number of times. It can be made to recognize that it is continuously controlled to the winning effect state (specific state) until the advantageous upper limit number is reached (until the third ending condition is satisfied). Further, since the display contents of the effect display device 15 are changed by the number of times of shifting to the winning effect state without shifting to the normal effect state, the display content of the effect display device 15 is changed, so that the satisfaction of being able to experience the display content can be obtained. It can be given and the interest can be improved.

(16) "Confrontation production state (specific state) ends when winning the end lottery performed when the specific value that changes by lottery reaches a predetermined value (when it is decided to end the specific state) By adopting the innovative specification of "Yes", it is possible to improve the interest. Furthermore, when the number of transitions to the winning production state without transitioning to the normal production state reaches a predetermined number of times, “from the situation where the first end condition and the second end condition are the end conditions of the specific state” to “the third end condition” Becomes a condition for ending a specific state". In this way, the novel specification that the ending condition of the specific state is switched depending on the number of times of shifting to the winning rendering state without shifting to the normal rendering state can improve the interest.

(17) The number of transitions to the winning production state without transition to the normal production state (the number of times the second termination condition is satisfied without the first termination condition being satisfied after being controlled to the specific state) has reached the predetermined number. After that, even if the specific value reaches the predetermined value, the end lottery is not performed, and the establishment of the first end condition is continuously restricted. For this reason, it is possible to suppress a sense of crisis that the first end condition is satisfied, entertain the complete winning effect state (specific state) with peace of mind, and effectively improve interest.

(18) "Confrontation production state (specific state) ends when the final lottery that is performed when the specific value that changes in the lottery reaches a predetermined value is won (when it is determined to end the specific state) By adopting the innovative specification of "Yes", it is possible to improve the interest. Furthermore, the effect execution timing at which the ending effect as the privilege effect is executed is changed according to the number of stocks. Therefore, it is possible to estimate the number of stocks depending on the effect execution timing at which the ending effect is executed. As a result, while the ending effect is executed, the interest can be improved, and the interest can be improved by paying attention to the effect execution timing at which the ending effect is executed.

(19) When the number of stocks is 1 or more, the ending effect (privilege effect) is executed at a timing earlier than when the number of stocks is 0 (zero). As a result, it is possible to infer that the stock count was present by executing the ending effect at an early timing, and the ending effect is executed at a relatively early timing because the stock number was present. As a result, the player can be satisfied and the interest can be improved.

(20) When the stock number is the second number (for example, 2), the ending effect (privilege) is performed at a timing earlier than when the stock number is the first number (for example, 1) smaller than the first number. Production) is executed. As a result, it is possible to infer that the stock number was the second number, which is larger than the first number, by executing the ending effect at an early timing. Further, since the stock number is the second number, which is larger than the first number, the ending effect is executed at a relatively early timing, so that the player can be satisfied and the interest can be improved.

(21) When the ending effect as the special effect is executed, the ending effect state (specific state) is continuously controlled until the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number and the third ending condition is satisfied. For this reason, it is possible to increase the attention paid to the execution of the ending effect, increase the joy of the execution of the ending effect, and effectively improve the interest.

(22) The special value may be updated when the winning of the role of Bell is permitted. Further, when the winning of only the normal re-play combination is permitted, the specific value may be updated. For this reason, it is possible to improve the interest by paying attention to which of the bell role and the normal replay role is allowed in the role lottery.

(23) When the yellow navigation effect is executed, the stop operation can be performed after recognizing that the winning of the bell role is allowed, that is, the special value can be updated. In addition, when the blue navigation effect is executed, the stop operation can be performed after recognizing that the winning of only the normal replay combination is permitted, that is, the specific value can be updated. .. However, when the white navigation effect is executed, it is not possible to recognize which winning combination of the bell winning combination and the normal replay winning combination is allowed. Therefore, when the white navigation effect is executed, an opportunity to pay attention to whether the "special value can be updated" or "the specific value can be updated" is given to improve the interest. be able to. As described above, by configuring the yellow navigation effect, the blue navigation effect, and the white navigation effect to be executable, while paying attention to which navigation effect is executed, the navigation effect actually executed respectively You can provide a way to enjoy and improve your interest.

(24) When a Bell role or a Bell re-gaming role is won, the special value can be updated. When the bell combination is won, the three bell symbols are stopped on the activated line YL. Further, when the bell re-gaming combination is won, three bell symbols are stopped on any of the invalid lines ML1 to ML4. In this way, when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won, a symbol combination in which three bell symbols are stopped on a straight line is led to the display window 12a. Therefore, when a symbol combination in which three bell symbols are stopped on a straight line is led to the display window 12a, the special value can be updated. Further, when the normal re-gaming combination is won, the specific value can be updated. Further, when the normal re-game combination is won, a symbol combination in which three replay symbols are stopped on the activated line YL is led out to the display window 12a. Therefore, when the symbol combination in which the three replay symbols are stopped on the activated line YL is derived in the display window 12a, the specific value can be updated. For this reason, the symbol combination derived to the display window 12a is either a "symbol combination in which three bell symbols stop on a straight line" or a "symbol combination in which three replay symbols stop on the effective line YL". It is possible to make people pay attention to such things and improve their interest.

(25) When the specific value has reached the predetermined value, the reverse lottery may be performed and the state may shift to the reverse effect state. On the other hand, when the specific value does not reach the predetermined value, the reverse lottery is not performed and the shift to the reverse effect state is restricted. In this way, the specific value is associated with the transition to the reverse effect state. Therefore, in addition to the end of the advantageous effect state, attention can be paid to the specific value in connection with the control to the winning effect state, and the interest can be improved. In addition, when the specific value has reached a predetermined value, that is, when the ending lottery is performed, the reverse lottery is performed, so even if the ending lottery is performed, the win effect control is performed. You can have a sense of expectation to be given, and you can improve your interest.

(26) The specific value does not change while being controlled to the reverse effect state. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the degree of attention to win the reverse winning lottery from being lowered by paying attention to the change in the specific value. Further, the special value does not change while being controlled to the reverse effect state. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the degree of attention to win the reverse winning lottery from being lowered by paying attention to the change in the special value. Further, when the reversing effect state is controlled, the end lottery is not performed. Therefore, in the reverse effect state, it is possible to reduce the anxiety about the end of the advantageous effect state and entertain the game.

(27) When the special value reaches the privilege value, the winning effect state is controlled. Further, when the player wins the reverse winning lottery, the winning effect state is controlled. In this way, the privilege granted when the special value reaches the privilege value is the same as the privilege granted when the reverse winning lottery is won. Therefore, as a route until the same privilege is given, there are a “route until the special value reaches the privilege value” and a “route until the reverse production state is reached and the reverse winning lottery is won”. In this way, by increasing the variation of the route until the privilege is granted, it is possible to easily improve the interest.

(28) When the special value is far from the privilege value, it is easier to win the revival lottery than when the special value is close to the privilege value. Therefore, while paying attention to the fact that the special value is close to the privilege value, it is controlled to the winning effect state, while paying attention to whether the special value is a value far from the privilege value and whether to win the revival drawing, It is possible to improve the interest.

(29) When the number of stocks is 0, even if the final lottery is won, if the revival lottery is won, the advantageous effect state is not finished, and the revival effect state is controlled. Therefore, in a situation where the specific value has reached a predetermined value and the end lottery is performed, even if the end lottery is won, it is possible to expect to win the revival lottery. In addition, when it is controlled to the revival production state, it can be inferred that it was possible to win the revival lottery and avoid the end of the advantageous production state even if the final lottery was won. it can.

(30) It is easier to win the reverse lottery in the revival effect state than in the confrontation effect state. Therefore, in the revival effect state, as compared with the confrontation effect state, it is possible to increase the degree of interest in winning the reverse lottery and improve the interest.

(31) When controlled to the revival effect state, the end lottery is not performed even if the specific value has reached a predetermined value. Therefore, in the revival effect state, it is possible to reduce the anxiety about the end of the advantageous effect state and entertain the game.

(32) When the first companion effect is executed, the specific subtraction process is not performed. Therefore, when the first fellow effect is executed, there is no possibility that the specific value will approach the predetermined value due to the subtraction of the specific value. Therefore, when the specific value does not reach the lower limit value, attention can be paid to whether or not the execution of the first companion effect is determined, and the interest can be improved. Further, when the first companion effect is executed, the specific addition process is not performed, and the specific value does not change. For this reason, when the first companion effect is executed, the degree of attention to the specific value is lowered, the degree of attention to other effects is increased, and the interest can be improved.

(33) If the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed when the third fellow production is executed, the bell re-playing combination is easier to win than when the third fellow production is not executed. That is, when the third fellow production is executed, if the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, the bell re-playing combination is won and the specific value is increased as compared to when the third fellow production is not executed. The percentage to do will increase. Thereby, when the third fellow effect is executed, the specific value increases, and the specific value is likely to move away from the predetermined value. Therefore, it is possible to improve the interest by paying attention to whether or not the execution of the third fellow effect is decided.

(34) When the third fellow production is executed, if the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, compared to when the third fellow production is not executed, the stop button for winning the bell re-playing combination It was made easier to notify the operation order of Then, the operation sequence of the stop button for winning the bell re-playing combination is easily informed, so that the bell re-playing combination is easily won. As a result, when the execution of the third fellow effect is decided, a navigation effect for notifying the operation order for winning the normal re-gaming combination and a navigation effect for notifying the operation order for winning the bell re-gaming effect The interest can be improved by focusing on which is executed.

(35) When all types of fellow characters have appeared, it is possible to recognize that the state is controlled in the winning effect state, that is, the privilege is given. Therefore, attention can be paid to whether all kinds of fellow characters will appear, and the interest can be improved.

(36) The subsequent degree of advantage varies depending on the number and types of fellow characters that have appeared. Specifically, the number of variable games in the winning effect state (the degree of advantage when a privilege is given) varies depending on the number and types of fellow characters that have appeared. Therefore, attention can be paid to the number and types of the fellow characters who appear, and the interest can be improved.

(37) The more the number of variable games played in the confrontation effect state is, the longer the advantageous period is, and when the variable game reaches the maximum number of confrontation stays, the winning effect state is controlled. Therefore, it is possible to give the joy that the advantageous period becomes longer as the number of fluctuation games performed in the confrontation production state increases, and in addition, expectation and confrontation to approach the confrontation stay upper limit number of times. When the number of stays reaches the maximum number of stays, it is possible to give joy to being controlled in the winning performance state and improve the interest. Also, even if it is in the confrontation effect state, it may get tired if the period controlled in the confrontation effect state becomes long, but at least until the variable game played in the confrontation effect state reaches the confrontation stay upper limit number, the victory effect state. Can be expected to be controlled, and tiredness can be suppressed.

(38) When the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value, it is controlled to the victory effect state (same privilege as in the case where the number of variable games played in the confrontation effect state reaches the confrontation stay upper limit number of times). Is given). Therefore, in the confrontation effect state, in addition to being controlled to the victory effect state, in addition to the variable game played in the confrontation effect state reaching the maximum number of confrontation stays, the special value reaches the privilege value. You can also try to improve your interest by focusing attention on.

(39) If the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, the special value may change if the stop button is operated in the push order for winning the bell re-playing combination (the special update condition may be satisfied). ). On the other hand, if the winning of the Bell re-gaming combination is allowed, the specific value may change if the stop button is operated in the pushing order for winning the normal re-gaming combination (the specific update condition may be satisfied). .. For this reason, if the winning of the bell re-playing combination is allowed, which of the bell re-playing combination and the normal re-playing combination should be pushed is the pressing order of the stop button of the player himself/herself. It is possible to focus on and improve the interest. In particular, the rate at which the special value changes differs depending on the navigation rate of the bell replay role. Therefore, attention can be paid to whether or not the push order informed in the navigation effect is the push order for winning the bell re-play combination, and the interest can be improved.

(40) When the specific subtraction process is performed, the specific value decreases and approaches the predetermined value, so that the specific value disadvantageously changes. On the other hand, when the specific addition process is performed, the specific value increases and moves away from the predetermined value, so that the specific value changes advantageously. Then, when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games, the specific addition processing may be performed while the specific subtraction processing is not performed. In other words, when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination wins in the three consecutive variable games, the specific subtraction process is not performed, so that the specific value does not disadvantageously change, and the specific addition process is performed. There may be a situation in which the specific value is changed advantageously. Therefore, attention can be paid to whether the winning combination of the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, and the interest can be improved.

(41) When the special subtraction process is performed, the special value decreases and approaches the privilege value, so that the special value changes advantageously. Then, in the case where the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games, the special subtraction process may be performed while the specific subtraction process is not performed. In other words, when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, the specific subtraction process is not performed, so that the specific value is not disadvantageously changed, and the special subtraction process is performed. The special value may change in an advantageous manner. Therefore, attention can be paid to whether the winning combination of the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, and the interest can be improved.

(42) When the specific addition process is performed, the specific value increases and moves away from the predetermined value, so that the specific value changes advantageously. Further, when the special subtraction process is performed, the special value decreases and approaches the privilege value, so that the special value changes advantageously. Then, when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games, a specific addition process and a special subtraction process may be performed. That is, when the bell role or the bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, the specific addition process is performed and the specific value is changed advantageously, and the special subtraction process is performed. There may be situations where the special value changes in an advantageous manner. Therefore, attention can be paid to whether the winning combination of the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games, and the interest can be improved.

(43) An upper limit value is set for the specific value. In this way, since the upper limit value is set for the specific value, it is possible to set a target for increasing the specific value. Therefore, the player can focus on the increase of the specific value with the goal that the specific value reaches the upper limit value. Further, when the specific value has reached the upper limit value, the specific addition process is not performed even when the bell combination or the bell re-gaming combination is won in three consecutive variable games. As a result, the specific value does not exceed the upper limit value of the specific value, so that it is possible to prevent the player from having an expectation that the specific value exceeds the upper limit value.

The embodiment described above may be modified into another embodiment as follows, for example.
・While controlled to the confrontation effect state (specific state), the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination (a mode relating to the establishment of the specific update condition) is notified in some of the confrontation effect states from the next onward. It may be configured to. For example, an image capable of specifying the navigation rate of the bell replay combination may be displayed in the first area Gd1 to the fifth area Gd5 so that the navigation rate of the bell replay combination is notified. Even if the image displayed at this time is an image that directly shows the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination (for example, when the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is 40%, an image containing 40% characters) Alternatively, it may be an image displayed for each navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination (for example, when the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination is 40%, an image displayed only when the navigation rate is 40%). Also, when controlled to the confrontation effect state, the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in all confrontation effect states up to a predetermined number of times (15 times) is suggested or notified. You may. That is, when the specific update condition is controlled in the specific state, the specific update condition is satisfied in all the specific states of the subsequent specific states that are controlled when the second end condition is satisfied without the first end condition being satisfied. It may be configured such that such a mode may be suggested or notified.

For example, by changing the magnitude of the change amount of the special value when the special update condition is satisfied (that is, the determination mode of the special change value) for each confrontation effect state, the manner in which the second end condition is satisfied can be changed. You can make them different. Further, the manner of determining the special change value may be configured to be determined by the manner pattern. It should be noted that, for each confrontation effect state, the determination rate of the special change value may be different without changing the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination.

-For example, by changing the magnitude of the change amount of the specific value when the specific update condition is satisfied (that is, the determination mode of the specific change value) for each confrontation effect state, You can make them different. Further, the manner of determining the specific change value may be configured to be determined by the manner pattern. Note that the determination rate of the specific change value may be different for each confrontation effect state without changing the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination.

-Each time the control of the confrontation effect state is started, the navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in the confrontation effect state may be determined. In the case of such a configuration, a winning expectation image GC that suggests or notifies the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination in the current confrontation effect state may be displayed on the effect display device 15. In addition, a victory expectation image GC may be displayed on the effect display device 15 to suggest or inform the navigation rate of the bell re-playing combination in a part or all of the already-finished confrontation effect states. As described above, when determining the navigation rate of the bell re-play combination each time it is controlled to the confrontation effect state, the mode pattern may not be provided.

The navigation rate of the bell re-gaming combination in the confrontation effect state may be notified when the confrontation effect state is completed. For example, the navigation rate of the bell re-playing role is suggested by the winning expectation image GC until the confrontation effect state is ended, while the actual navigation rate of the bell-re-playing role is notified as the confrontation effect state is ended. (For example, an image including characters of “40%” is displayed).

When initializing the specific value, the value set as the initial value of the specific value is configured to be determined by lottery, and for example, when the same value as the predetermined value is set as the initial value of the specific value There may be. Further, when the second ending condition is satisfied in the confrontation effect state and the state is again controlled to the confrontation effect state after the transition to the victory effect state, the specific value is not initialized and the specific value is maintained. May be. That is, the specific value may not be initialized when the second end condition is satisfied and the specific state is controlled again. Further, when the specific value is configured not to be initialized, the specific value may increase (the specific value moves away from the predetermined value) in the winning effect state.

When the update of a specific value is restricted after the specific value is updated and before the special value is updated, the rate of updating the specific value should be lower than that before the update of the specific value is restricted. The update of the specific value may be limited by. That is, after the specific value is updated, until the special value is updated, the update of the specific value is limited by making it more difficult to update the specific value than before the specific value is updated. You may comprise. It should be noted that the rate of updating the specific value can be lowered by, for example, increasing the rate of determining “0” in the specific value decreasing lottery or the specific value increasing lottery.

After updating the specific value, until the special value is updated, by increasing the update rate of the special value, the update of the specific value of the update rate of the special value and the update rate of the specific value is updated. The update of the specific value may be limited by lowering the ratio of the ratios. The rate of updating the special value can be increased, for example, by lowering the rate of determining “0” in the special value decreasing lottery.

The change in the special value may be limited until the specific value changes after the special value changes. That is, after the special update condition is satisfied and the special value is updated, the update of the specific value is restricted (or regulated) until the specific update condition is satisfied and the specific value is updated. You may. When configured in the above-described embodiment in this way, the specific value and the special value are updated alternately, so that the attention to the specific value and the special value can be changed alternately, and the interest can be improved. ..

The specific value may be updated after the specific value is updated, even if the special value is not updated. That is, after the specific value is updated, the update of the specific value may not be restricted (or regulated).

In the above embodiment, after the specific value is updated regardless of whether the specific value is updated to decrease or the specific value is increased, the update of the specific value is limited. Configured to. However, for example, only when the specific value is updated to decrease, the decrease of the specific value may be limited until the special value is updated thereafter. Further, for example, only when the specific value is updated so as to increase, the increase of the specific value may be limited until the special value is updated thereafter. In addition, for example, only when the specific value is updated to increase, the decrease of the specific value may be limited until the special value is updated thereafter.

-When the special value reaches the privilege value, before the special change in the case where the bell role or the bell re-playing role is won in three consecutive variable games, and when the winning of the cherry role or the watermelon role is allowed The effect contents of the effect may be the same. That is, the effect contents of the special effect executed when the special value is updated and the special value reaches the privilege value when the first special update condition is satisfied are the special values when the second special update condition is satisfied. May be updated and the special value may be the same as the effect content of the special effect executed when the special value reaches the privilege value.

・When the special value reaches the privilege value, only one is left if the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role is won in three consecutive variable games, and if the Cherry role or the Watermelon role is allowed to win. The effect contents of the special pre-change effect may be changed before the reels stop. For example, if the winning of the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role is permitted when the Bell role or Bell re-gaming role is won in two consecutive variable games, and the winning of the Cherry role or Watermelon role is allowed. The common effect contents of the pre-special change effect may be different depending on the case.

When the game is controlled to the winning effect state, the winning effect state may be terminated before the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number, and for example, the state may shift to the normal effect state. For example, in the complete win production state, an internal lottery that determines the end of the complete win production state is configured to be performed, and when the end of the complete win production state is determined in the internal lottery, the complete production state is configured to end. May be. That is, if the number of times the second end condition is satisfied without reaching the first end condition after being controlled to the specific state reaches a predetermined number of times, the specific state is ended before the third end condition is satisfied. There may be cases.

-It is not necessary to be configured to be able to control to a complete win production state. For example, until the advantageous consecutive number reaches the advantageous upper limit number, it is configured to be controlled to a confrontation production state after the victory production state is finished. The state and the winning effect state may be repeated.

When the ending effect state is controlled, the ending effect state may be finished before the advantageous continuous number reaches the advantageous upper limit number, and for example, the state may shift to the normal effect state. For example, in the ending effect state, an internal lottery for deciding the end of the ending effect state is configured to be performed, and when the ending effect state is determined to be ended in the internal lottery, the ending effect state is configured to end. May be. That is, after the privilege effect (ending effect) is executed, the specific state may end before the third end condition is satisfied.

The number of stocks does not have to be held. For example, when the final lottery is won and the revival lottery is not won, it may be configured to be controlled to the normal production state.
When the number of stocks is 1 or more when the final lottery is won, the stock number may be decreased by 1 and the final lottery may be performed again. Then, the upper limit may be set until the number of stocks becomes 0, and the end lottery may be repeatedly performed until the end lottery is not won. When configured in this way, the stock count can be said to be the count related to the satisfaction (or failure) of the first termination condition.

Although the transition condition to the ending effect state is established according to the number of stocks, for example, the transition condition to the ending effect state is established according to the number of times the winning effect state is controlled. Good. For example, as the number of times the winning effect state is controlled is increased, the timing at which the condition for shifting to the ending effect state is satisfied, that is, the effect execution timing for executing the ending effect (privilege effect) may be configured to be earlier. Good.

It may be configured such that the ending effect is controlled and the ending effect as the privilege effect is executed only when the number of stocks is 1 or more. In this case, since the ending production is not executed unless the number of stocks is 1 or more at the timing at which the transition condition to the ending production state can be satisfied, the scarcity of the ending production itself can be increased, and the joy of executing the ending production can be increased. Can be increased.

If the number of stocks is 1 or more, the condition for transitioning to the ending effect state may be satisfied regardless of which of the number of stocks is 1 or more. That is, the transition condition to the ending effect state may be established depending on the presence or absence of the number of stocks (either the stock number is "0" or "1 or more").

The end lottery may be performed even when the specific value does not reach the predetermined value (“1” in the above embodiment). At this time, the closer the specific value is to the predetermined value, the easier it is to win the end lottery. In such a configuration, the interest can be improved by the novel specification that "the closer the specific value is to the predetermined value, the easier it is to win the end lottery". In addition, the end lottery may be performed more easily when the specific value is closer to the predetermined value. In such a configuration, the interest can be improved by the novel specification that "the closer the specific value is to the predetermined value, the easier the end lottery is performed".

-According to the lottery result of the role lottery, a companion production lottery may be performed. Further, the type of companion effect may be determined according to the lottery result of the role lottery. For example, when the third control information is stored in the main control RAM 40c, the third rendition effect is configured to be executed when the winning of the bell replaying role is permitted, while the winning of the bell replaying role is permitted. The third companion presentation may not be executed when not performed.

-The winning probability of the reverse winning lottery may be changed according to the lottery result of the role lottery in the reverse production state. For example, when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed in the reversing effect state, the winning probability of the reversing winning lottery is higher than when the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is not allowed in the reversing effect state. You may comprise so that it may become high. In addition, the winning probability of the reverse winning lottery may be increased as the number of winnings of the winning of the role of cherry or the role of watermelon in the reverse effect state is increased.

・The winning probability of the reverse winning lottery may be different depending on the special value. For example, when the special value is the first value, the winning probability of the reverse winning lottery is higher than that when the special value is the second value lower than the first value. May be. In addition, when the special value is the second value, the winning probability of the reverse winning lottery is configured to be higher than when the special value is the first value higher than the second value. May be.

Not limited to the confrontation effect state, for example, the companion effect may be executed even in the reverse effect state, the revival effect state, and the victory effect state. For example, when the third fellow production is executed in the reverse production state, compared to when the third fellow production is not executed in the reverse production state, the bell replay game is allowed when the winning of the bell replay role is permitted. You may comprise so that the ratio of the notification of the operation sequence of the stop button for winning a winning combination may become high.

The winning probability of the reverse lottery may be changed according to the lottery result of the role lottery in the revival production state. For example, in the case where the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed in the revival effect state, the winning probability of the reverse lottery is higher than in the case where the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is not allowed in the reviving effect state. You may comprise so that it may become. Alternatively, the probability of winning the reverse lottery may be increased as the number of winnings of the winning role of the cherry or the watermelon is increased in the revival effect state.

-The winning probability of the reverse lottery may be different depending on the special value. For example, in the case where the special value is the first value, the winning probability of the reverse lottery is higher than that in the case where the special value is the second value lower than the first value. Good. In addition, when the special value is the second value, the winning probability of the reverse lottery is higher than that when the special value is the first value higher than the second value. Good. Further, the winning probability of the reverse lottery when controlled to the confrontation effect state or the revival effect state may be different according to the special value.

The reverse lottery may be performed even when the specific value does not reach the predetermined value. For example, in the confrontation production state, when the specific value is the first value, it is more difficult to win the reverse lottery than when the specific value is the second value which is closer to the predetermined value than the first value. You may comprise. Also, even if the specific value does not reach the predetermined value, the reverse lottery is configured to be performed, while even if the specific value does not reach the predetermined value, even if the reverse lottery is won, the reverse effect Instead of being controlled to the state, it may be configured to be controlled to the show production state. In other words, when the specific value does not reach the predetermined value, even if the reverse lottery is won, it may be possible to limit the control to the reverse effect state.

-The resurrection lottery may be performed before the end lottery. For example, the final lottery may be performed when the rehabilitation lottery is not won. In such a configuration, when the revival lottery is won, it is preferable to shift to the revival effect state. Further, in the case where the rehabilitation lottery is not won and the end lottery is not won, the confrontation effect state may be continued. Further, when the winning lottery is not won and the ending lottery is won, the advantageous effect state may be ended. If the number of stocks is 1 or more, it is possible to shift to the revival effect state even when the winning lottery is not won and the final lottery is won.

-In the "winning numbers that allow winning of the normal replaying role and the bell replaying role", a plurality of pushing orders among the first pushing order to the sixth pushing order are used to win the bell replaying role. May be defined as For example, in the "winning numbers in which winning of the normal replaying role and the bell replaying role is allowed", the fifth pressing order and the sixth pressing order are "pressing order for winning the bell replaying role", first pressing The order to the fourth pressing order may be defined as "the pressing order for winning the normal replay combination". In this case, the fifth pressing order and the sixth pressing order are operation sequences in which the right stop button 21c of the stop buttons 21a to 21c is operated first, and therefore, "the winning of the normal re-gaming combination and the bell re-gaming combination is won. It can be understood that the "allowable winning number" defines the stop button to be operated first among the plurality of stop buttons for winning the bell re-playing combination. As described above, when the winning of the bell replay role is allowed, when the predetermined stop button of the plurality of stop buttons is first operated, the bell replay stop eye is derived, while the plurality of stop buttons are stopped. Of the predetermined stop buttons, when a stop button different from the predetermined stop button is first operated, a normal re-game stop line may be derived.

-A companion character different from the first to third companion characters in the above embodiment may appear. For example, when a predetermined companion effect is executed, the specific value may not increase and the specific value may increase even when the normal re-game combination is won. That is, when a predetermined companion effect is executed, the decrease of the specific value is limited (or regulated) regardless of the lottery result of the role lottery and the winning combination, and the specific value is increased. Good. In addition, when a predetermined companion effect is executed, the special value may be reduced even when the normal re-game combination is won. That is, when a predetermined companion effect is executed, the special value may be reduced regardless of the lottery result of the role lottery and the winning combination.

The end lottery in the above embodiment may be configured so as to also serve as the revival lottery. For example, in the end lottery, the lottery result corresponding to the lottery result when the end lottery is not won in the above embodiment and the lottery result corresponding to the end lottery and the revival lottery in the above embodiment And a lottery result corresponding to the lottery result when the final lottery is won and the rehabilitation lottery is not won in the above embodiment.

-A plurality of fellow characters may appear in one fellow appearance production. In this way, when a plurality of fellow characters appear in one fellow appearance production, a plurality of fellow information will be newly stored in the main control RAM 40c upon the winning of the fellow appearance lottery. In addition, all types of fellow characters may appear in one fellow production. In this way, when all types of fellow characters appear in one fellow appearance production, all the fellow information is newly stored in the main control RAM 40c upon winning the fellow appearance lottery. Become. In the case of the above configuration, not only the type of the companion characters that appear in the companion appearance production, but also the number of the companion characters that appear can be paid attention to improve the interest.

-You may change the period of staying in the reversing stage. The period of staying in the reverse effect state does not have to be determined by the number of variable games. For example, it may be configured such that a continuous lottery in the reverse production state is carried out when the variable game is played in the reverse production state, and the player stays in the reverse production state until the continuous lottery is not won. That is, you may comprise so that it may stay in a reverse production state until it is determined in the internal lottery that the reverse production state is finished. In addition, you may comprise so that it may stay in a reversal production state until the number of times the lottery result of a part lottery reaches a predetermined lottery result, or the number of times a predetermined hand wins a predetermined number. For example, the normal replay combination may be configured to stay in the reverse effect state until the number of winnings reaches a predetermined number (for example, 3 times).

・You may change the period of staying in the revival production state. The period of staying in the revival effect state does not have to be determined by the number of variable games. For example, it may be configured such that a continuous lottery in the resurrection effect state is triggered by a variation game being played in the resurrection effect state, and the player stays in the rehabilitation effect state until the continuous lottery is not won. That is, it may be configured to stay in the revival effect state until the end of the revival effect state is determined in the internal lottery. In addition, the number of times the lottery result of the part lottery becomes a predetermined lottery result or the number of times a predetermined hand is won may be set to stay in the revival effect state until the predetermined number of times is reached. For example, the normal replay combination may be configured to stay in the revival effect state until the number of winnings reaches a predetermined number (for example, 3 times).

-The winning probability of the companion production lottery may be different depending on the lottery result of the role lottery. In addition, the winning probability of the fellow production lottery may be changed depending on the number of times of the fluctuating game played in the confrontation production state. The companion effect may be executed without fail when the companion character does not appear when the number of times of the variation game performed in the confrontation effect state reaches a predetermined number (for example, 50 times).

When the main control RAM 40c stores the companion effect information that can specify the first companion effect, the specific subtraction process may not be performed while the specific value reduction lottery is performed. Similarly, when the main control RAM 40c stores companion effect information that can specify the first companion effect, the specific addition process may be performed while the specific value increase lottery is performed.

The first consecutive number information (that is, the number of consecutive consecutive variable games in which the normal re-playing combination is won) may be notified. Similarly, the second consecutive number information (that is, the consecutive number of the variable games in which the winning combination of the bell role and the bell re-playing combination is won) may be notified. For example, the effect display device 15 may be configured to display an image showing the number of times that can be specified from the first consecutive number information, and the information that can specify the first consecutive number information may be notified.

As the subtraction value (specific subtraction value) that decreases from the specific value, "0" or "1" may be determined. Further, as the additional value (specific additional value) to be added to the specific value, "0" or "1" may be determined. Similarly, "0" or "1" may be determined as the subtraction value (special subtraction value) to be subtracted from the special value.

“When the normal replay combination wins in three consecutive variable games” in the above embodiment, “when the push order for winning the normal replay combination in three consecutive variation games is notified” " Similarly, in the above-described embodiment, “when the winning combination of the bell role or the bell replaying role is won in three consecutive variable games” is “to win the bell role or the bell replaying role in three consecutive variation games. When the pushing order of is notified”. In addition, the "case where the winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is allowed" in the above embodiment may be "the case where winning of the role of cherry or watermelon is won".

The number of enemy soldiers and the special value shown in the image Gb of enemy soldiers may not be the same value. For example, a value calculated using a special value (for example, a value obtained by doubling the special value) may be used as the number of friendly soldiers shown in the enemy soldier number image Gb. Further, the number of enemy soldiers shown in the number of enemy soldiers image Gb does not have to be indicated by a numerical value, and may be, for example, the number of enemy soldiers indicated by a meter or a gauge.

The privilege granted when the special value reaches the predetermined privilege value does not have to be controlled to the winning effect state. For example, a premium effect may be executed as a privilege given when the special value reaches a predetermined privilege value. Further, the privilege granted when the player wins the reversal victory lottery may be different from the privilege granted when the special value reaches a predetermined privilege value.

-The condition for ending the winning effect state does not have to be determined by the number of variable games. For example, the winning effect state may be ended when the number of times a predetermined winning combination (for example, a Bell winning combination) is won reaches a predetermined number. The winning effect state may be a so-called pseudo bonus state.

The special value may be configured to increase or decrease in some cases. That is, the special value may increase and change, or may decrease and change. For example, when the special value is configured to increase, if the special value increases, the special value increases because the special value moves away from “0” corresponding to the privilege value and the transition to the winning effect state is distant. Doing corresponds to changing the special value to a disadvantageous value. Further, the main control CPU 40a is configured to perform the process of determining the increase amount of the special value (addition value to be added to the special value), and thus the special addition for determining the addition value (special addition value) to be added to the special value. A function as a value determining means is realized. For example, the special value may be increased when the normal re-play combination is won in three consecutive variable games.

In the above-described embodiment, the decrease of the specific value corresponds to the specific value being disadvantageously changed because the specific value approaches the predetermined value. On the other hand, in the above-described embodiment, the increase in the specific value corresponds to the advantageous change in the specific value because the specific value moves away from the predetermined value. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the reduction of the special value corresponds to the advantageous change of the special value because the special value approaches the predetermined privilege value.

The smaller the specific value, the higher the degree of advantage, and the larger the specific value, the lower the degree of advantage. For example, in the above-mentioned embodiment, when determining the increase amount of the specific value, it is configured to determine the decrease amount of the specific value, and in the above-described embodiment, when determining the decrease amount of the specific value, the increase amount of the specific value is determined. It may be configured to do so. The specific value may reach the predetermined value only when the additional value is added to the specific value. For example, the predetermined value may be set as the upper limit of the value that the specific value can take, and the smaller the specific value is, the higher the advantage may be.

The smaller the special value, the higher the advantage, and the larger the special value, the lower the advantage. For example, in the above-described embodiment, where the special value decrease amount is determined, the special value increase amount may be determined. Then, only when the additional value is added to the special value, the special value may reach the predetermined privilege value. For example, the privilege value may be set to “100000”, and the advantage may be increased as the special value is closer to the privilege value.

The content of the specific effect may be the content showing the number of times of the fluctuating game until the confrontation effect state is ended (for example, the number of times of the fluctuating game until the first ending condition is satisfied). For example, suppose that after the specific value has changed from "a value other than 1" to "1", the confrontation effect state is continued until an average of fluctuating games is executed 15 times. In this case, when the specific value changes from “a value other than 1” to “1”, the content of the meter image Ga is until the confrontation effect state (specific state) ends (until the first end condition is satisfied). It may be configured such that the number of times of the variable game is “15 times”.

The navigation effect may be executed even in the normal effect state. Further, the navigation effect may be executed with advantageous contents even in the normal effect state. Even in the case of such a configuration, when the advantageous effect state is in the normal effect state, the ratio of the navigation effect executed with the advantageous content is higher than that in the normal effect state. The configuration may be more advantageous than the state.

・While staying in the normal production state, if it is decided to allow the transition to the advantageous production state, and even if the promoted re-game player wins the prize, the normal production state is controlled. You may comprise. That is, after it is determined that the transition to the advantageous effect state is allowed, the transition to the effect state other than the normal effect state may be restricted until the transition to the preparatory effect state.

・If you win the advantageous permissible lottery, that is, if you decide to allow the transition to the advantageous state, for example, the number of precursors is not determined and the variable game won in the advantageous permissible lottery ends, or the advantageous permissible lottery It may be configured to shift from the normal effect state to the preparation effect state with the start of the variable game next to the variable game that is won.

-The number of effective lines may be plural. For example, some or all of the invalid lines ML1 to ML4 in the above embodiment may be valid lines. For example, the valid line YL in the above embodiment may not be a valid line, and the invalid lines ML3 and ML4 in the above embodiment may be valid lines. In addition, when the number of active lines is plural, it is preferable that the prize is awarded when the symbol combination in which the prize is set is derived on one of the active lines. Further, when a symbol combination in which an award has been determined is derived on a plurality of activated lines, the determined award may be given to each of the derived symbol combinations. It may be configured such that one of the awards set for the symbol combination is awarded.

In the above-described embodiment, the main control CPU 40a may be configured to store, in the output buffer, a winning command that can specify that the lottery result of the winning combination lottery is out of order. Good. In this case, the winning command corresponds to control information capable of specifying the lottery result of the winning combination lottery including the failure.

In the above-described embodiment, even if the value of the random number for the role lottery is not assigned to the winning number that allows the winning of the symbol combination in which the prize is set, it is not limited to the winning number and, for example, the advantageous allowing lottery is performed. It is also possible to configure so that a symbol combination (so-called chance) that has the advantage of can be derived.

The above embodiment may be applied to a gaming machine that can give a penalty to a player. It should be noted that the penalty may be applied to one variation game or a plurality of variation games.
