Description

The present invention, in a predetermined game state in which the number of maximum movements of at least one reel when the reels are stopped is controlled to be different, the symbol combination stopped and displayed in accordance with the operation of the stop switch is made different. It relates to a gaming machine.

In a conventional gaming machine, a replay lottery is executed during a 2BB (MB) game, and there are a case where a replay is won and a case where a small win is won depending on a win of the replay and an operation of a stop switch. A machine is known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1).

Patent No. 5240949

However, in the above-mentioned conventional gaming machine, the reel stop control is the same in the game that is not won in the replay during the 2BB game, the symbol combination displayed in the stop is the same, and the payout number is also the same. Therefore, there is a problem that the skill of the player cannot be exhibited when the replay is not won during the 2BB game.
The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide the player with technical intervention in a predetermined game in a predetermined game state (for example, under the condition of winning ALL during a 2BB game).

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by the following solving means (the construction of the corresponding embodiment is shown in parentheses) .
The present invention (
A plurality of reels (31),
A plurality of stop switches (42) provided corresponding to each reel,
Role lottery means (61) for performing lottery of roles,
When the stop switch is operated to stop, reel control means (65) for stopping and controlling the reel within the range of the maximum number of moving symbols,
Equipped with
The reel control means, in a predetermined game state (during a 2BB game), with respect to at least one specific reel (middle reel 31) of the plurality of reels, the maximum movement symbol number is a reel other than the specific reel. Enables different stop controls (“1” for specific reels and “4” for non-specific reels),
In the predetermined gaming state, the predetermined game to game medium number "X" is set as the specified value (the context of winning ALL), if the stop switch corresponding to the specific reel is stopped first operation , A case where the symbol combination (small wins 01 to 04) to which the first number “Y” of game media (13) is stopped and displayed, and the second number of game media “Y-1” (“Y-1> X”. The same applies hereinafter.) and (12) the symbol combination (small winning combination 05 and 06) is stopped and displayed.
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, when the stop switch corresponding to a predetermined reel other than the specific reel is first stopped, a symbol combination giving the first number of game media “Y” is given. There are cases of stop display and cases of stop display of a symbol combination giving the second number of game media "Y-1",
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, if a predetermined end condition is satisfied, a freeze effect can be executed,
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, a ratio of stopping and displaying a symbol combination giving the first game medium number “Y” when the stop switch corresponding to the specific reel is first stopped ( When the pressing order is "213", "7980/8000", when the pressing order is "231", "7960/8000") is the first when the stop switch corresponding to the predetermined reel is first stopped. Higher than the rate of stopping and displaying the symbol combination that gives the number of game media of 1 "Y",
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, in a situation where the symbol combination giving the first number of game media “Y” can be stopped and displayed, the symbol combination giving the first number of game media “Y” is given. Although the stop switch corresponding to the spinning reel is stopped at the timing at which stop display is possible, the stop switch is operated and then the stop switch is operated. Even when it is not possible to stop and display the symbol combination to which the number “Y” of game media of 1 is given, it is possible to provide the game media of the number “Y” of first game media,
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, the second game medium number "Y-1" is given under the situation that the symbol combination giving the second game medium number "Y-1" can be stopped and displayed. Although the stop switch corresponding to the reel that is rotating at a timing at which the symbol combination can be stopped and displayed can be stopped, a predetermined operation for the reel corresponding to the stop switch after the stop operation is performed after the stop operation is performed. Even when it is not possible to stop and display the symbol combination that gives the second number of game media "Y-1" due to poor rotation, it is possible to give the second number of game media "Y-1".
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, in a situation where the symbol combination giving the first number of game media “Y” can be stopped and displayed, the symbol combination giving the first number of game media “Y” is given. Although the stop switch corresponding to the spinning reel is stopped at the timing at which stop display is possible, the stop switch is operated and then the stop switch is operated. Even when it is not possible to stop and display the symbol combination to which the number "Y" of the game medium is set, if the predetermined ending condition is satisfied, the freeze effect can be executed,
In the predetermined game in the predetermined game state, the second game medium number "Y-1" is given under the situation that the symbol combination giving the second game medium number "Y-1" can be stopped and displayed. Although the stop switch corresponding to the reel that is rotating at a timing at which the symbol combination can be stopped and displayed can be stopped, a predetermined operation for the reel corresponding to the stop switch after the stop operation is performed after the stop operation is performed. Even when the symbol combination giving the second number of game media “Y-1” cannot be stopped and displayed due to rotation failure, the freeze effect can be executed if the predetermined end condition is satisfied. ..

According to the present invention, it is possible to stop the symbol combination in which the payout number is different based on the operation (pressing order) of the stop switch by the player, so that it is possible to provide technical intervention.
Further, by stopping displaying the symbol combination to impart symbol combination or the second game medium number "Y-1" to impart a first game medium number "Y" prejudice to the player than necessary You can avoid it.
Further, even when a so-called irregular stop of the reel occurs, the originally correct number of game media can be paid out.

In the present specification, the meanings of the terms are as follows.
“RT” means that the type (number) of the condition device (feature (special role), replay, small role) and the winning probability that are subject to the lottery are in a particular lottery state, and “RT transition”. The term means that the winning probability of at least one condition device (for example, a replay) that is a lottery target is changed by shifting from one RT to another RT. Therefore, the winning probability for each type of replay in one RT is a value peculiar to that RT, and one RT and another RT have the same winning probability for each type of replay. Absent. However, the total value of the winning probabilities of the replay may be the same for one RT and another RT.

In the present embodiment, the RT firstly includes non-RT, RT1, RT2, 1BBA to 1BBC operation, and 2BBA to 2BBC operation (FIG. 19 described later).
Note that “non-RT” does not mean that it is not included in the concept of RT, and is equivalent to “RT0”. Therefore, the term “RT” used herein includes non-RT.
In addition, in the present embodiment, 1BBA to 1BBC operation and 2BBA to 2BBC operation are provided as a special game (feature object operation). In the present embodiment, none of the 1BBA to 1BBC operations perform replay lottery. Therefore, strictly speaking, it is not included in RT, but in the description of the present embodiment, it is described as one RT. Note that at least one replay lottery may be performed during the operation of 1BBA to 1BBC, and in this case, the operation of 1BBA to 1BBC can also be said to be one RT.
Also, during the operation of 2BBA to 2BBC, the replay is selected by lottery.
The term “feature product operation” means that the prize has been won, and that the special game related to the feature is being performed.
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, SB is provided as an accessory other than 1BB and 2BB, but there is no RT transition based on SB operation.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a concept different from RT is provided, and a main game state in which the transition (transition) is controlled by the main control board 50 is provided similarly to RT. The main game state of the present embodiment includes main game states 0 to 2 and 12 to 16, as shown in FIG. 20, which will be described later. Here, the main game states 3 to 11 are treated as missing numbers in this embodiment. The actual game machine has main game states 3 to 11, but in the following embodiments, the main game states 3 to 11 will be omitted (deleted) for the sake of simplification of description.

RT and the main game state have a case where they are interlocked and a case where they are not interlocked. For example, when the condition for simultaneously satisfying the RT transition and the main game state transition is satisfied, the RT transition is made and the main game state is also shifted. On the other hand, when the transition condition of RT is satisfied but the transition condition of the main game state is not satisfied, only the RT shifts while the main game state remains unchanged. On the contrary, when the transition condition of the main gaming state is satisfied but the transition condition of RT is not satisfied, RT is left as it is and only the main gaming state is shifted.

In the present embodiment, the lottery means 61 to be described later executes the lottery of the "winning number". Therefore, the role lottery means 61 is also referred to as “winning number lottery (decision, selection) means”.
The winning numbers of this embodiment include a winning number “0” which is a non-winning number and winning numbers “1” to “38” which are any winning (FIGS. 9 and 10 described later). Then, when the winning number is determined, the “condition device number” corresponding to the winning number is generated.
The "condition device number" has a "feature condition device number" and a "winning and replay condition device number".
When the condition device number is generated, the condition device corresponding to the condition device number is activated, so that the symbol combination of the winning combination corresponding to the operated condition device can be stopped and displayed on the activated line.

The "feature condition device number" is a condition device number corresponding to any special role (feature), and in the present embodiment, "0" to "7" are provided as the "feature condition device number". ..
The character condition device number "0" is a character condition device number corresponding to the non-winning of a special character (character), and the character condition device numbers "1" to "7" are any of the special characters ( It is a device condition device number corresponding to the winning of the character).
Here, as the "special role (feature)", 1BB (first-class role continuous operation device; first-class big bonus), 2BB (second-class role continuous operation device; second-class big bonus), Examples include RB (first-class special character; regular bonus), CB (second-class special character, challenge bonus), and SB (single bonus).

1BB (first-class role product continuous operation device) refers to a device that can continuously operate RB (first-class role product).
In this embodiment, 1BB includes 1BBA to 1BBC, and RB includes RBA and RBB. Then, during the operation of 1BBA, RBA is continuously operated. Further, the RBA is continuously operated during the operation of 1BBB and 1BBC.
During the operation of 1BB, the RB of the present embodiment ends when either one of the two small prizes or the two games is satisfied, and after that, the condition for ending the 1BB operation is not satisfied, Activate RB again. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the RB is "N"("N" is "2" or more and "8" or less) small prize winnings, or "M"("M" is "2" or more". It is sufficient that the game is finished when any one of the number of games of "12" or less) is satisfied.

Further, 2BB (second class accessory continuous operation device) refers to a device that can continuously operate CB (second class special object). 2BB is also referred to as MB.
Furthermore, SB (single bonus) is an accessory that executes an SB game consisting of one game. When the SB game (1 game) is finished, the game state before the SB game transition is returned to.
Furthermore, 1BB and 2BB are special roles that can carry over the winning information after the next game, and SB and CB are special roles that do not carry over the winning information after the next game. Carryover of winning information after the next game will be described later.

Further, the "winning and replay condition device number" is a condition device number corresponding to a small win or replay that does not carry over the winning information after the next game, and in the present embodiment, as the "winning and replay condition device number", " It has 0” to “22”. The prize and replay condition device number "0" is a condition device number corresponding to the non-winning of the small winning combination and the replay, and the winning and replay condition device numbers "1" to "22" are those of the small winning combinations or the replay. It is a condition device number corresponding to winning.

Of the winning numbers “0” to “38” of the present embodiment described above, the winning numbers “0” to “22” correspond to the winning and replay condition device numbers “0” to “22”, and The accessory condition device number is a winning number of "0".
On the other hand, the winning numbers “23” to “38” are winning numbers corresponding to the accessory condition device numbers “1” to “5”. Here, the winning numbers “23” to “38” include a winning number corresponding to a single winning of a special combination and a winning number in which a special combination and a small combination or a replay are repeatedly won.

In addition, when the winning information is won to a winning number (in the present embodiment, winning numbers “24” to “38”) that includes any of the special roles that can be carried over after the next game, it corresponds to that special role. The winning information of the special role is carried over to the next game until the symbol combination stops on the activated line.
Here, a game in which the winning information does not include a winning number including a special role that can be carried over after the next game is referred to as “non-internal”. On the other hand, when the winning number including the special combination is won, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning special combination is not stopped on the activated line, that is, the game carrying the winning information of the special combination is "internal". "Middle". In the present embodiment, the game won as the special combination is included in “non-inside”, but the game won as the special combination may be included in “inside”.

It should be noted that 1BB of the present embodiment may be in the inside of 1BB because there is a case where the winning game is not won. On the other hand, 2BB of the present embodiment always wins in the winning game, so there is no case where it is inside 2BB.
Further, the SB does not carry over the winning information after the next game, so that the SB will not be in the inside at the time of winning the SB.

"The operation information of the stop switch that is advantageous to the player" is a combination of a large number of payouts (a symbol combination) in a game in which there is an advantage/disadvantage in the game result (the symbol combination that stops on the effective line) depending on the operation mode of the stop switch. ) Indicates an operation mode in which a prize is won (stop display), or an operation mode in which a symbol combination that does not shift (promote) to an advantageous RT or does not shift (fall) to an unfavorable RT (wins stop display).

The "operation mode" corresponds to the pressing order of the stop switch and/or the operation timing (timing of pressing the stop switch for stopping the target symbol on the active line).
And, in the present embodiment, the "game having an advantageous operation mode of the stop switch" is a game at the time of winning the small winning combination A1 to A6 (small winning combination A group) which is a push order bell, and a duplicate replay (replays E1 to E3( Replay E group)) It corresponds to the game at the time of winning.

In addition, when the push order bell is elected, the bell (small role) that wins when the stop switch is operated in the correct answer push order is higher It is sometimes referred to as a bell (small winning combination) in which it is most advantageous for the player to display the symbol combination such as the smallest winning combination.
On the other hand, when the stop switch is operated in the wrong pressing order when the push order bell is elected, Yasume Bell (withdrawing of the bell group (small win group) that has been elected multiple times) There are cases where a small winning combination with a smaller number of payouts than a small winning combination with the largest number of prizes) is won, and cases where a winning combination is missed. A stop result displayed when a character loses a role is called a "missing eye".
However, in the present embodiment, when the pushing order is incorrect when the pushing order bell is won, the cheap bell always wins and the spilled eye does not stop (“PB=1” described later).

Also, different symbol combinations are stopped and displayed according to the pressing order of the stop switch during replay win, but no dropout occurs during replay win (“PB=1”).
In this case, a push order for stopping and displaying a symbol combination that is advantageous to the player, for example, a symbol combination that shifts to RT with a higher replay winning probability, or a symbol combination that maintains an RT with a higher replay winning probability (RT advantageous for the player The pushing order) is referred to as "correct answer pushing order" or "promotion pushing order".
On the other hand, the push order in which the symbol combination that shifts from the RT that is advantageous to the player (for example, the RT with a high replay winning probability) to the disadvantageous RT (for example, the RT with a low replay winning probability) is displayed as "wrong press"Order" or "falling (demotion) pushing order".

The “instruction function” means a function of displaying (notifying) the above-mentioned “advantageous operation mode” to the player.
In other words, the “instruction function” refers to a device (control) that facilitates winning. On the other hand, if the "instruction function" is a device that facilitates the winning of small wins, the "instruction function" is, in the narrow sense, the correct answer push order (higher bell) to win the push order bell It refers to displaying the order, and it is not possible to display the correct push order for winning the advantageous replay (replay to move to advantageous RT or replay to maintain advantageous RT) at the time of replay duplicate win Not included.

However, in the following embodiments, the "instruction function" refers to a function for displaying the "advantageous operation mode" to the player, and the "operation of the instruction function" indicates the correct answer push order when the push order bell is won. It is used in the sense of including both to perform and to display the correct answer pushing order that wins the advantageous replay when the replay duplicate wins.
Note that showing the contents of the "instruction" to the player is "display", and notifying the contents of the instruction to the player is "notification". Therefore, the “instruction function” is both a “display function” and a “notification function”.
Further, the “instruction” is a concept having the meaning of “instruction”, but no penalty is imposed on the player just because he/she does not follow the “instruction”. However, if the correct answer push order displayed by the operation of the instruction function is not followed, the higher order bell may not be won when the push order bell is won, or a disadvantageous replay may be won when the replay duplicate is won.

Furthermore, "instruction function operation game" is a game having an advantageous operation mode of a stop switch (a condition device having an advantageous operation mode of a stop switch (a game winning a small win group A, replay E group)) , Means a game that activates the instruction function (a game that informs the player of an operation mode that is advantageous). Therefore, the instruction function operation game is one game. The instruction function operation game may also be referred to as a notification game. Even if the game has an advantageous operation mode of the stop switch, when the instruction function is not operated, the game is not the instruction function operation game.

Further, a game section in which the instruction function is continuously operated, that is, the instruction function operation game (notification game) is continuously executed is referred to as "AT". During AT, when the winning combination having the advantageous operation mode of the stop switch is won, the instruction function is basically activated.
In the present embodiment, the AT that sets 40 games (when there is no addition) is executed, and when one set of AT is exhausted, if the continuation condition of the AT is satisfied, the AT of one set of 40 games is executed again. To do.

In addition, under the situation of the winning ALL of the 2BB game in the first embodiment (details will be described later), depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the operation timing, a case where a higher eye winning combination (13 pieces) wins is cheaper. There are cases where a small eye combination (12 pieces) wins. Under this circumstance of the first embodiment, no drop of the hand occurs.
On the other hand, under the condition of the winning ALL of the 2BB game in the third embodiment, depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the operation timing, a small winning combination (13 pieces) and a non-winning combination of winning combinations (winning combination) When spilling)
Then, during the 2BB game of the present embodiment, although it is an advantageous section to be described later, it does not operate the instruction function that notifies the advantageous push order of the stop switch 42 (2BB game is the instruction function operation game or AT. Absent).
In the 2BB game, a high/low eye winning combination is won based on the player's operation of the stop switch 42 (first embodiment), or a small winning combination is won/non-winning (3rd embodiment). Yes, with technical intervention.

In the present embodiment, the “gaming section” includes a “normal section”, a “standby section”, and an “advantageous section”. In addition, the game section other than the advantageous section, that is, the normal section and the standby section may be collectively referred to as "non-advantageous section", or the normal section may be referred to as "non-advantageous section".
First, the “normal section” is a signal related to the instruction function, specifically, a push order instruction number and a prize and replay condition device number (information that can determine the correct push order) described later on a peripheral board (for example, sub-control). It is a game section that is prohibited from being transmitted to the board) and that does not affect the performance related to the instruction function at all (does not activate the instruction function). In other words, the normal section is a game section in which the instruction function cannot be operated and a game section in which an advantageous operation mode cannot be displayed (notified). However, in addition to the lottery of the winning number, it is possible to make a decision (lottery etc.) as to whether or not to shift to the advantageous section or AT.

Since the instruction function should not be operated in the normal section, it is not possible to display (notify) the pressing order instruction information on a predetermined display device (LED or the like) electrically connected to the main control board, Since the signal related to the instruction function is not transmitted to the peripheral board, it is impossible to display (notify) an advantageous operation mode by a lamp, a speaker, an image display device, or the like electrically connected to the sub-control board described later.

The "normal section" of the present embodiment is a game section in which it is possible to determine (lottery or the like) whether or not to shift to the advantageous section (AT). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is possible to determine whether or not to shift to the advantageous section (lottery, etc.) and the first normal section (advantageous zone lottery possible section) and whether to shift to the advantageous section ( It is also possible to provide a second normal section in which lottery or the like) cannot be performed (advantageous section lottery period).
For example, when the conditions for shifting to the second normal segment are satisfied in the first normal segment (for example, when a predetermined winning number is won), it is possible to shift to the second normal segment. Alternatively, after the special combination (for example, 1BB) operation is finished (after the special game is finished) or after the advantageous section is finished, the second normal section is uniformly or under predetermined conditions.

..
In addition, the transition from the second normal section to the first normal section is to consume a predetermined number of games, win a predetermined winning number, display a predetermined symbol combination, and a predetermined RT (for example, a stay ratio among a plurality of RTs). The highest condition is the transition to the highest RT).
In the present embodiment, the advantageous section is transitioned to when 1BB or 2BB is won during the normal section. Further, in the advantageous section, the condition shifts to AT on the condition that the later-described "CZ rank" becomes "1" or more. After the shift to the advantageous zone, when the CZ rank remains “0” and the condition for ending the advantageous zone is satisfied, the normal zone is shifted without executing AT.

The "advantageous section" is a game section having performance related to the instruction function (the instruction function may be activated). Specifically, when the instruction function is activated, the instruction content (advantageous A signal related to the instruction function (for example, information about the push order that enables an advantageous operation mode to be grasped, winning and replay), only when the push order instruction information is displayed (notified) so that the different operation modes can be identified. Condition device number) refers to a game section in which the sub-control board can be transmitted. In other words, the advantageous section is a game section in which the instruction function can be operated (the instruction function may be activated), and the advantageous operation mode can be displayed (notified) (may be displayed (notified)) in the game section. Is. The game in the advantageous section may be referred to as a notificationable game. On the contrary, the game in the normal section or the game in the standby section may be referred to as an unnotifiable game (game in the non-advantageous section).
However, the sub control board cannot output an effect contrary to the content of the instruction given by the main control board or the received signal relating to the instruction function.

Generally, in the advantageous section, the maximum payout number (“11” in this embodiment) corresponding to the specified number (“3”) in the game (when the accessory is not operated) capable of executing the instruction function operation game can be obtained. In the game won to the condition device (small winning combination A group) having an advantageous operating mode, instructing the operating mode of the stop switch in which the winning combination relating to the maximum payout number (small winning combinations 01 to 03) is won (specifically, It is necessary to perform at least one game or more) by notifying a pressing order by a predetermined display device (LED or the like) electrically connected to the main control board. When the combination function related to the maximum payout number (small combination 01 to 03) activates the instruction function so that the combination can be acquired, the “maximum instruction generation” is completed.

On the other hand, when shifting to the advantageous section based on the winning of the special combination, it is not always necessary to execute the instruction function operation game. In the present embodiment, in the normal section, the special function (1BB or 2BB) is shifted to the advantageous section based on the winning, so it is not always necessary to execute the instruction function operation game.
In addition, when a predetermined special combination (for example, 1BB) is won without executing the instruction function operation game after shifting to the advantageous section based on the winning of the small combination or the replay, or the special related special combination. When a game (for example, 1BB game) is executed, it is not always necessary to execute the instruction function operation game.

In the present embodiment, the transition from the normal section to the standby section or the advantageous section is performed based on the fact that 1BB or 2BB having no setting difference is won. Therefore, in the present embodiment, there is no case where the player shifts to the advantageous section based on the winning of the small winning combination or the replay without winning the special winning combination.
In particular, in the present embodiment, when 2BB is won and the 2BB game is finished, it is a non-AT although it is an advantageous section at that time, and whether or not to shift to the AT during the 2BB game and the omen game thereafter. Is determined by lottery based on the operated condition device. The lottery on whether or not to shift to the AT corresponds to the “CZ rank addition lottery process” of this embodiment. The CZ rank addition lottery process is executed when the condition device having no setting difference is operated.

Further, during the advantageous section, in a game in which a winning combination having an advantageous operation mode is won, the instruction function may always be activated to display the advantageous operation mode of the stop switch. That is, such a game section is "AT". In the present embodiment, a main game state 2 or 16 (advantageous section) described later is a game state corresponding to AT, and the instruction function is always activated when the condition device capable of operating the instruction function is activated.
On the other hand, in the advantageous section, even if the game wins a winning combination having an advantageous operation mode, the instruction function may not be activated. In the present embodiment, a main game state 1 (advantageous section) described later is in the forefront and is not a game state in which the instruction function is always activated. In the main game state 1, the instruction function is not activated when the push order bell (small win group A) is won, but RT (RT2) is maintained by operating the instruction function when the push order replay (replay E group) is won.

Furthermore, the “stand-by section” refers to a game section when it has been decided to shift to the advantageous section and has not yet shifted to the advantageous section. The waiting section may or may not be provided. That is, the normal section may be shifted to the advantageous section, the normal section may be shifted to the standby section, and further, the standby section may be shifted to the advantageous section.
Here, in the standby section, it is not possible to activate the instruction function in the main control board or send a signal related to the instruction function to the sub control board. When the instruction function is operated in the main control board and the signal related to the instruction function is transmitted to the sub control board, it is a condition that the advantageous period is in effect.

In addition, it is not possible to shift from the advantageous zone to the standby zone, and after the advantageous zone ends, it always shifts to the normal zone. In the present embodiment, when the special combination (1BB or 2BB) is won in the normal section, it always shifts to the standby section. When winning 2BB that always wins in the game, when the player wins 2BB, it shifts to the waiting section, and when 2BB wins (means "when that symbol combination stops. The same applies hereinafter"). Move to the section. On the other hand, when 1BB is won in the game, it shifts to the waiting section, and the waiting section is maintained until 1BB is won. The waiting section is not limited to ending when the special combination wins, and may end before that.
Depending on the type of the winning number including the special winning combination, a special winning combination that shifts to the standby section and a special winning combination that shifts to the advantageous section without shifting to the standby section may be determined in advance.

In the advantageous section of this embodiment, since the main game state 0 (during preparation for warning) is 2BB operating, there is no case where the instruction function is operated. Further, in the main game state 1 (preceding sign), as described above, the instruction function is not activated when the push order bell is won, but the instruction function is activated when the push order replay is won. In the main game state 2 or 16 corresponding to AT, both the push-order replay win and the push-order replay win activate the instruction function.

Further, in the present embodiment, during AT, it is determined (lottery or the like) whether or not to add (add) the number of AT games. As in the present embodiment, when the AT of one set of 40 games is executed, the number of sets is added, but the number of games in one set may not be added. Alternatively, both the addition of the number of games in one set and the addition of the number of sets may be executed, or both may be set not to be executed.
Further, in the advantageous zone, the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games in the present embodiment) is set, and when the continuous upper limit number of games is reached, even if the advantageous zone or the remaining number of AT games is available. At that time, the advantageous section and the AT are always ended, and the section shifts to the normal section.

Further, when the continuous upper limit number of games is reached in the advantageous section or AT, the maximum payout number (refers to the maximum payout number when the accessory is not operated. In the present embodiment, 11) is an advantageous operation mode. Even if the winning combination (small winning combination A group) has not been won even once, the advantageous section is always ended at that point, and the section shifts to the normal section.

The relationship between the advantageous section and the AT can be set arbitrarily. However, it is necessary to be in an advantageous section during AT. For example, “advantageous section=AT” may be set. In this case, AT is continued during the advantageous section.
Further, non-AT and AT may be repeated (at least one AT is executed) during the advantageous section. In the present embodiment, there are an advantageous section and AT (for example, main gaming state 2 or 16) and an advantageous section and non-AT (for example, main gaming state 0 or 1). Further, the main gaming states 14 and 15 are in operation for 1BB, and the AT does not execute.
It should be noted that the AT execution condition is not satisfied only by shifting to the advantageous section, and whether or not AT is executed is determined by lottery or the like on the condition that the AT is in the advantageous section, and AT is executed. When determined, the AT may be executed until the AT end condition is satisfied.

In the present embodiment, as a general rule, the AT is executed in a state (RT2) in which the probability of winning the replay is high.
However, as will be described later in detail (FIG. 19), when SB or Replay 04 wins during RT2, the process moves to RT1. When it moves to RT1, it will continue to stay at RT1 unless it digests 333 games or wins 1BB or 2BB. Here, the winning probability of replay in RT1 of the present embodiment is about “1/7.3” (FIG. 11). Therefore, when AT is executed during RT1, it is not strictly ART.

Withdrawal rate (PB), from the moment the stop switch is operated to when the reels stop (maximum number of moving symbols (frames)), the desired symbol to be stopped on the active line can be stopped on the active line. Indicates the probability of being able to do it.
Then, if the stop switch is not operated at an appropriate reel position (at an operation timing capable of stopping the target symbol on the effective line within the range of the maximum movement symbol number), the target symbol is stopped on the effective line (up to the effective line). Inability to pull in is referred to as “PB (pulling rate)≠1”.
On the other hand, regardless of the position of the reel at the moment when the stop switch is operated (regardless of the operation timing of the stop switch), the target symbol can always be stopped (pulled in) on the effective line. =1”.
In the following description, “PB=1” means that the maximum number of symbols to be transferred is “4”, except for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation. Further, for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation, the maximum movement symbol is "1".

“PB=1” has a case in which all reels are in that role, and a case in which it is only for specific (partial) reels for the winning combination.
In the present embodiment, the maximum number of moving symbols is set to "4" (however, except for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation), when the target symbols are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less, " PB=1”, and when arranged at intervals exceeding 5 symbols (6 symbols or more), “PB≠1”. In particular, the number of symbols on the reel of the present embodiment is set to "20", and if four symbols are arranged at an interval of five symbols, the symbol becomes "PB=1".

"N-1" game item, "N" game item, "N+1" game item, ... ("N" is an integer greater than or equal to 2), when the game progresses, the current game is "N" game item. When it is an eye, the "N" game eye game is called a "current game". Further, the game of the "N-1" game is referred to as "previous game". Furthermore, the game of the "N+1" game is called the "next game".

Further, the "gaming medium" is a medal in the present embodiment, but in the case of an enclosed (ECO) gaming machine, electronic information (electronic medal, electronic data) is used as the gaming medium. The "electronic information" means, for example, when money (banknotes) is put into a lending machine, it is converted into electronic information corresponding to the money, and a part or all of the electronic information is played on a gaming machine. It can be stored in the game machine as a game medium for performing.
Further, in the case where the game medium is electronic information, “medal payout” means to credit (add) to the game medium storage device provided in the game machine. Therefore, in the present invention, “payout of medals” does not mean only actual payout of medals from the hopper, but a winning combination is given to the game medium storage device (for example, the storage number display LED 76 of the embodiment). A process of crediting (adding) the electronic information of the corresponding payout is also included.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings and the like.
<First Embodiment>

The input port 51 is a connection unit for inputting signals such as operation switches, and the output port 52 is a connection unit for transmitting signals to peripheral devices such as the motor 32.
In FIG. 1, a peripheral device for input is indicated by an arrow indicating a signal from the peripheral device toward the main control board 50, and a peripheral device for output is indicated by an arrow directed from the main control board 50 to the peripheral device. It is shown (similar to the sub-control board 80).

The RWM 53 is a storage medium capable of storing (updating) various data (variables) based on the progress of a game and the like.
The ROM 54 is a storage medium that stores programs and various data (for example, a data table) necessary for the progress of the game.
The main CPU 55 refers to the CPU provided on the main control board 50, and executes the programs necessary for the progress of the game, performs calculations, etc. Specifically, the lottery of the winning combination, the drive control of the reels 31, and the winning The payout, etc. are executed.

An MPU including a RWM 53, a ROM 54, a main CPU 55, and a register is mounted on the main control board 50. It should be noted that the RWM 53 and the ROM 54 may be provided outside, in addition to the one mounted inside the MPU.
An MPU including a RWM 83, a ROM 84, and a sub CPU 85 is mounted on a sub control board 80 described later. Note that the RWM 83 and the ROM 84 may be provided outside the MPU, instead of being mounted inside the MPU.

In FIG. 1, medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 43 are sent inside the medal selector.
As shown in FIG. 1, the medal selector includes a passage sensor 43a, a blocker 45, and an input sensor 44 (but is not limited to these), and is electrically connected to the main control board 50.
When a medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot 43, the passage sensor 43a first detects the medal.

Further, a blocker 45 is provided on the downstream side of the passage sensor 43a. The blocker 45 is for allowing/not allowing the insertion of medals. When the insertion of medals is not allowed, the blocker 45 forms a medal passage for returning the medals inserted from the medal insertion opening 43 from the payout opening. To do. On the other hand, when the insertion of medals is permitted, a medal passage for guiding the medals inserted from the medal insertion opening 43 to the hopper 35 is formed.

Here, in the blocker 45, during the game (from the start of rotation of the reels 31 until all reels 31 are stopped and the payout corresponding to the winning combination is finished at the time of winning the winning combination), the insertion of medals is not permitted. To do. That is, the blocker 45 permits the insertion of medals at least when the game is not being played.

An input sensor (optical sensor) 44 is provided further downstream of the blocker 45. In the present embodiment, the throw-in sensor 44 is composed of a pair of throw-in sensors arranged at a predetermined distance, so that the medal is detected by the other throw-in sensor after a predetermined time has elapsed after being detected by one of the throw-in sensors. Is configured. Then, it is determined whether or not a correct medal has been inserted based on the timing at which the pair of insertion sensors 44 are turned on/off.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, on the main control board 50, bet switch 40 (40a or 40b), start switch 41, (left, middle, right) stop switch 42, and operation switches operated by the player. The settlement switch 46 is electrically connected.
Here, the “operation switch (or simply, “switch”)” switches on/off of the electric signal based on the operation of the operation body by the player (operator) (receives a force from the outside). It refers to a device (including an electric circuit and/or an electric component) and does not limit the shape of the operating body operated by the player. When the operation switch is in the off state, for example, light from the light emitting element continues to enter the light receiving element (when the light receiving element continues to detect light, the operation switch is in the off state). When a player or the like operates the operation switch (the operation body of the operation switch), the light from the light emitting element does not enter the light receiving element. When this state is detected, an electric signal indicating that the operation switch is turned on is transmitted to the main control board 50. Contrary to the above, when the operation switch is in the off state, the light from the light emitting element does not enter the light receiving element, and the light from the light emitting element enters the on state when entering the light receiving element. You may.

In the present embodiment, the operating body of the start switch 41 has a lever (bar) shape (henceforth, also referred to as “start lever (switch) 41 ”), the bet switch 40, the stop switch 42, and the adjustment switch. The operation body of 46 is in the shape of a push button (for this reason, it is also referred to as a "bet button (switch) 40", a "stop button (switch) 42", and a "payment button (switch) 46").
Although not shown in FIG. 1, an LED or the like (light emitting means) is provided on the operation body of the operation switch and/or around or in the vicinity thereof. When the operation acceptance of the operation switch is permitted, for example, the LED or the like corresponding to the operation switch emits blue light, and when the operation acceptance of the operation switch is not permitted, for example, the operation switch The LED or the like emits red light to indicate to the player whether the operation switch is permitted or not permitted.

The bet switch 40 is an operation switch operated by the player when betting the stored medals for the present game. In the present embodiment, a 1-bet switch 40a for inserting one medal and a 3-bet switch 40b for inserting three (maximum or prescribed number) medals are provided.
Note that the present invention is not limited to this, and a bet switch for two-bed bet may be provided.

Further, the prescribed number of the present embodiment is set to 3 sheets when the accessory is not operated, SB is operated, 1BB is operated, and 2 pieces are operated when 2BB is operated. If the 1-bet switch 40a is operated twice, two medals can be inserted, and if it is operated three times, three medals can be inserted. When the prescribed number is 3, three medals can be inserted at a time by operating the 3 bet switch 40b. When the prescribed number is 2, if the 3 bet switch 40b is operated. You can insert two medals at a time.

The start switch 41 is an operation switch operated by the player when starting the reels 31 (all of the left, middle, and right).
Furthermore, three stop switches 42 are provided corresponding to the three (left, center, right) reels 31, and are operation switches operated by the player when stopping the corresponding reels 31.
Furthermore, the settlement switch 46 is an operation switch operated by the player when paying out (paying out) medals betted and/or stored (credited) inside the slot machine 10.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, a display board 75 is electrically connected to the main control board 50. In addition, in practice, a relay board is provided between the main control board 50 and the display board 75, and the main control board 50 and the relay board, and the relay board and the display board 75 are connected. In FIG. 1, the illustration of the relay board is omitted. Thus, the main control board 50 and the display board 75 may be directly connected by a harness or the like, but another board may be interposed therebetween.
Furthermore, the control boards are not limited to being directly connected by a harness or the like, but may be connected via another separate board (relay board or the like). For example, one or more other separate boards (relay boards, etc.) may be interposed between the main control board 50 and the sub control board 80.

On the display substrate 75, a stored number display LED 76, an advantageous section display LED 77, and an acquired number display LED 78 are mounted.
The stored number display LED 76 is an LED that displays the number of medals stored inside the slot machine 10, and is composed of upper digit and lower digit. That is, the stored number display LED 76 displays two digits.
Here, the "digit" means a display unit (display), and in particular, in the present embodiment, it is composed of a seven segment display (Seven segment display unit, so-called 7-segment).

The winning number display LED 78 is an LED that displays the number of payouts (the number of players acquired) when winning the winning combination, and is composed of upper digits and lower digits. Therefore, the acquired number display LED 78 displays two digits like the stored number display LED 76.
The acquired number display LED 78 may be controlled to be turned off when there are no medals to be paid out. Alternatively, the upper digit may be turned off and only the lower digit may be displayed as "0".

The acquired number display LED 78 normally displays the acquired number, but when an error occurs, it functions as an LED that displays the content (type) of the error.
Furthermore, the acquired number display LED 78 functions as an LED that displays push order instruction information (informs an advantageous push order notification) in the instruction function operation game. Therefore, the acquired number display LED 78 in this embodiment is an LED that also displays the acquired number, error content, and push order instruction information. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it goes without saying that a dedicated LED or the like for displaying the pushing order instruction information may be provided.
In the instruction function operation game, the notification of the advantageous pressing order is also executed by the image display device 23 connected to the sub control board 80.

The advantageous zone display LED 77 is an LED that lights up during the advantageous zone and goes off during the non- advantageous zone (normal zone and standby zone), and is an LED for notifying the player of the advantageous zone. ..
Although not shown in FIG. 1, in the present embodiment, the digit of the upper digit and/or the lower digit of the stored number display LED 76 or the acquired number display LED 78 is a 7-segment display with dots (DP; decimal points). The dot in the lower digit of the acquired number display LED 78 is used as the advantageous section display LED 77. Needless to say, the dot in the lower digit of the storage number display LED 76 may be used as the advantageous section display LED 77.
Further, each digit is dynamically lit every interrupt processing. For example, in one interrupt processing, only one digit can be turned on and the other digits are turned off. Then, in the next interrupt processing, only one other digit can be turned on and the remaining digits are turned off.

In FIG. 1, the main control board 50 is electrically connected to a motor (stepping motor in this embodiment) 32 of the symbol display device.
The symbol display device includes reels (three in this embodiment) that display symbols, motors 32 that drive the respective reels 31, and a reel sensor 33 for detecting the position of the reels 31.

The motor 32 is for rotating the reel 31, is connected to the center of rotation of each reel 31, and is controlled by the reel control means 65 described later. Here, the reel 31 includes a left reel 31, a middle reel 31, and a right reel 31, and a stop switch 42 operated when stopping the left reel 31 is a left stop switch 42, and when the middle reel 31 is stopped. The stop switch 42 operated is the middle stop switch 42, and the stop switch 42 operated when stopping the right reel 31 is the right stop switch 42.

The reel 31 has a ring shape, and a reel tape having a plurality of types of symbols (symbols forming a symbol combination corresponding to a winning combination) printed thereon is attached to the outer peripheral surface thereof. The specific arrangement of the symbols on the reel 31 will be described later.
Further, each reel 31 is provided with one index (may be two or more). The index is provided in a convex shape on, for example, the peripheral side surface of the reel 31, and is used when detecting whether the reel 31 has passed a predetermined position, whether it has rotated once, or the like. Then, each index is detected by the reel sensor 33. The signal of the reel sensor 33 is electrically connected to the main control board 50. Then, when the index detects (turns off) the reel sensor 33, the input signal is input to the main control board 50, and it is detected that the reel 31 has passed a predetermined position.

Further, the symbol on the reference position at the moment when the reel sensor 33 detects the index of the reel 31 is stored in the ROM 54 in advance. Thereby, the symbol on the reference position at the moment of detecting the index can be detected. Further, from the moment when the reel sensor 33 detects the index of the reel 31, how many pulses the (stepping) motor 32 is driven to stop the symbol on the effective line from the symbol counted from the symbol on the reference position. It becomes possible to identify whether or not it is possible.

A medal payout device is electrically connected to the main control board 50. The medal payout device is a hopper 35 for accumulating medals, a hopper motor 36 that is driven when paying out medals of the hopper 35 from a payout opening, and a payout for detecting medals paid out from the hopper motor 36. The sensor 37 is provided.

Medals received from the medal insertion slot 43 and received are formed so as to be accommodated in the hopper 35 through a predetermined passage (also referred to as a “shoot section”).
In the present embodiment, the payout sensor (optical sensor) 37 is made up of a pair of payout sensors arranged at a predetermined distance, and after the predetermined time has elapsed after the medal was detected by the one payout sensor 37, the other payout sensor It is configured to be detected by the sensor 37. Then, it is determined whether or not the medals have been correctly paid out, based on the timing at which the pair of payout sensors 37 are turned on/off.

For example, when the signals of the pair of payout sensors 37 are both off even though the hopper motor 36 is driven, it is determined that no medals have been paid out, and a hopper error (no medals) is detected. To be done.
On the other hand, when at least one of the signals of the payout sensor 37 remains on, it is detected that the medal clogging has occurred.

Furthermore, an external signal (outer end signal) to the external centralized terminal board 100 is output from a part of the output port 52.
Here, the “external signal” is a signal to be output to the outside of the slot machine 10 (the hall computer 200, a data counter installed in the hall, etc.) via the external centralized terminal board 100. In the present embodiment, as the external signal, a signal relating to AT (advantageous section) or special game, a signal indicating that the error occurred in the slot machine 10 or recovery from power failure (power turned on), etc., slot machine A signal indicating opening of the front door of 10, a medal bet signal, a medal payout signal, and the like are provided.

In FIG. 1, a sub-control board 80 controls selection and output of effects (information) during a game and a game standby.
Here, the main control board 50 and the sub control board 80 are electrically connected to each other, and the main control board 50 (control command transmitting means 71 described later) is unidirectional to the sub control board 80 by parallel communication. Sends information (control command) necessary for production output.
The main control board 50 and the sub control board 80 are not limited to be electrically connected, and may be a connection using an optical communication unit. Furthermore, both electrical connection and optical communication connection are not limited to parallel communication, but may be serial communication, or serial communication and parallel communication may be used together.

Like the main control board 50, the sub control board 80 includes an input port 81, an output port 82, a RWM 83, a ROM 84, a sub CPU 85, and the like.
Peripheral devices for production such as the following production lamp 21 as shown in FIG. 1 are electrically connected to the sub-control board 80 via an input port 81 or an output port 82. However, the peripheral devices for performance are not limited to these.
The RWM 83 is a storage medium capable of temporarily storing the data and the like taken in when the sub CPU 85 controls the effect.
In addition, the ROM 84 is a storage medium that stores, as the effect data, a program for performing a lottery related to the effect, various data, and the like.

The effect lamp 21 is composed of, for example, an LED, and lights up in a predetermined pattern when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The effect lamp 21 is arranged on the inner peripheral side of each reel 31, and is a back lamp for illuminating the symbols displayed on the reel 31 (three consecutive symbols vertically visible from the display window 17) from behind, the reel 31. Includes a fluorescent lamp that illuminates the symbols on the reel 31 from above, and a frame lamp that is arranged in front of the front door of the slot machine 10 and blinks when winning a winning combination.

Further, the speaker 22 outputs a predetermined sound when a predetermined condition is satisfied in order to perform various effects during the game.
Furthermore, the image display device 23 is composed of a liquid crystal display, an organic EL display, a dot display, etc., and various effect images during the game (correct answer pressing order, effect corresponding to the condition device operated in the game, etc.). It also displays game information (such as the number of games played or the number of games acquired during the advantageous period (AT) during the operation of the accessory).

Further, the chance button 24 is an operation switch used for developing an effect to the next stage by outputting an image prompting the player to perform an operation during the effect and causing the operation. When the operation of the chance button 24 is urged, the LED provided inside or around the chance button 24 is turned on, so that a signal can be output from the sub-control board 80 to the chance button 24. In order that the sub-control board 80 can detect that the chance button 24 has been operated, a signal indicating that the chance button 24 has been operated can be input to the sub-control board 80.

Subsequently, the winning combination, the symbol combination, and the like of the present embodiment will be described.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a symbol array of the reel 31 in the present embodiment. In FIG. 2, the symbol numbers are also shown. For example, in the left reel 31, the symbol with the symbol number 0 is “blank”.
As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, each reel 31 is equally divided into 20 frames, and a predetermined symbol is displayed on each frame.
The replay pattern has a replay A and a replay B. These two symbols look like the same symbol at first glance, but are similar to the extent that they are different symbols when observed closely. The same applies to the design of the watermelon having the watermelon A and the watermelon B.
Further, the "blank" symbol is not one in which nothing is displayed, but a predetermined (light-colored) symbol is actually displayed.

Further, FIG. 3 shows an image display device 23 provided on the front surface of the slot machine 10, a display window (transparent window) 17, a positional relationship between the reels 31, and an effective line (display line for displaying a symbol combination). It is a figure which shows and.
The reel 31 disposed inside can be seen through the display window 17.
In this embodiment, three reels 31 (left reel 31, middle reel 31, and right reel 31) are provided in parallel in the lateral direction. Furthermore, the reels 31 are arranged so that three symbols that are vertically continuous can be seen from the display window 17. Therefore, a total of nine symbols (frames) are arranged so that they can be seen from the display window 17 of the slot machine 10.

Further, FIG. 3 illustrates the designation of symbol positions in this specification. In the present specification, the symbol positions when stopped from the display window 17 for each reel 31 are referred to as “upper”, “middle”, and “lower” in order from the top. ], "middle left stage", and "lower left stage".

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, effective lines are set for the nine symbols visible from the display window 17.
Here, the "effective line" is a line of symbols arranged when the reel 31 is stopped, a symbol combination line (display line) for forming a symbol combination, and a symbol combination corresponding to any of the combinations. This is the line that will win the winning combination when you stop at that line. In the present embodiment, the valid lines are set to be the same when the specified number is 3 (when the game is performed with 3 bets) and when the specified number is 2 (when the game is performed with 2 bets).
The effective line of the present embodiment is a so-called straight line descending to the right (“upper left stage”-“middle middle stage”-“lower right stage”). Others are invalid lines.

Further, in FIG. 3, the image display device 23 is provided above the display window 17. In the example of FIG. 3, the display of the pressing order during AT and the meter for suggesting the AT winning expectation degree are illustrated. These effects will be described later.

4 to 7 are diagrams showing types of winning combinations (such as winning combinations corresponding to winning numbers drawn by a winning combination lottery unit 61 described later), symbol combinations, and payout numbers.
The winning combination of the present embodiment roughly includes a special winning combination, a replay (re-playing winning combination), and a small winning combination.
Then, the symbol combination corresponding to each winning combination, the number of payouts at the time of winning, and the like are set. When all the reels 31 are stopped, the symbol combination corresponding to one of the winning combinations is stopped on the activated line (the winning combination is won. The same applies hereinafter), the number of medals corresponding to the winning combination is paid out.
However, the number of payouts at the time of winning the special part is set to 0. In replay, medals are automatically inserted (replay).
Further, in the symbol combination, "-" (for example, the symbol of the middle reel 31 of the winning combination number "041") means "ANY (arbitrary symbol)".

In FIGS. 4 to 7, the specified number and the “3” displayed in the game state indicate the number of payouts and the like when the specified number is 3, and the “2” is the specified number of 2 The number of payouts at a certain time is shown. Also, "3 sheets (1)" indicates when the accessory is not in operation, and "3 sheets (2)" indicates when the SB is in operation (SB game is in progress). Furthermore, "3 sheets (3)" indicates when 1BBA to 1BBC is operating, and "2 sheets (4)" indicates when 2BBA to 2BBC are operating.
For example, the replay 01 of the combination number “012” indicates that the game is replayed with the specified number of cards (1), (2), and 2 (4), and the “-” of the specified number of cards (3) is , Indicates that it will not be drawn.

In FIG. 4, the combination numbers “001” to “011” correspond to special combinations (features). In this embodiment, three types of 1BB (1BBA to 1BBC), three types of 2BB (2BBA to 2BBC), and one type of SB are provided as special roles.
The special role is a role for shifting from the normal game to the special game.
When any 1BB is won, no medals are paid out in the current game, but the next game shifts to the 1BB game (1BB operation) corresponding to the special game.
During the 1BB game (when the role object is activated), the payout rate is set to exceed “1”, which is an advantageous game for the player, who can expect to win medals more than when the role object is not activated. ..

Similarly, when 2BB is won, no medals are paid out in this game, but a 2BB game corresponding to a special game is executed from the next game (2BB operation).
Furthermore, similarly, when SB wins, there is no payout of medals in this game, but in the next game (1 game), an SB game corresponding to a special game is executed (SB operation).

Further, the replay (re-play role) is a role that allows the re-play while maintaining the number of medals inserted in the current game (automatically betting medals). Note that, for example, when the replay is won when the specified number of games this time is "3" and the specified number of next games is "2", the number of medals inserted in this game is not maintained, and The specified number of games, “2”, may be automatically bet.
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the replay of the present embodiment includes replays 01 to 05 (role numbers “012” to “044”).

The replay has a replay in which RT shifts and a replay in which RT does not shift when the symbol combination corresponding to the replay is stopped and displayed on the activated line. The former may be referred to as RT migration replay (or simply "migration replay").
Although details will be described later, as shown in FIG. 19, when the replay 04 wins at RT2, the game shifts from the next game to RT1.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the small winning combination includes small winning combinations 01 to 18 (role numbers “045” to “096”).
When the stop switch 42 is operated in the order of pressing the correct answer at the time of winning the small winning combination A group (described later), one of the small winning combinations 01 to 03 wins the prize. The small wins 01 to 03 are the small wins with the largest payout number among the small wins (when the accessory is not operated) provided in the present embodiment.
On the other hand, the payout number of the small winning hands 08 to 14 is set to three.
Further, the small winning combinations 15 to 17 are set to eight, and the small winning combination 18 (only when 1BB is operated) is set to eleven.
The small role 08 is a small role that can be won when the wrong pressing order is answered when the small group A group is won.
The small winning combinations 09 to 11 have a role as control roles when the small winning group A is elected.
In addition, the small winning combinations 12 to 17 have a role as a rare small winning combination (for example, at the time of winning, an advantageous lottery regarding the advantageous section or the AT is performed).
Furthermore, the small winning combination 18 is a small winning combination that can be stopped only when 1BB is activated.

In each of the above-mentioned winning combinations, when the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination does not stop on the activated line in the game won as the winning combination, the winning combination to be carried over after the next playing game and the winning combination not to be carried over are defined.
In the present embodiment, the hand to be carried over is 1BB (1BBA to 1BBC). Since the symbol combination of 1BB is set to “PB≠1”, there is a case where the game won in 1BB does not win the prize. When the player wins 1BB, the winning information of 1BB is controlled so as to be carried over to the next game or later in the game until 1BB is won.

Also, 2BB is a special combination that can be carried over after the next game, as in the case of 1BB. However, in the present embodiment, the symbol combination of 2BB is set to "PB=1", and it is set so as to always win the winning game. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the winning 2BB is not carried over to the next game or later.
Further, when the player wins SB, a small winning combination, or a replay, the winning combination is valid only in the game this time, and the winning is not carried over to the next game or later. That is, in the games winning these winning combinations, the reel 31 is stop-controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination can be won. The right to win the winning role disappears.

In FIG. 8, (a) is a diagram showing the type and performance of a special winning combination in the present embodiment, and (b) is a diagram showing the operation ending condition of the special winning combination.
As shown in FIG. 8(a), 1BB of the present embodiment includes three types of 1BBA to 1BBC, and all have "7" of any color. As shown in FIG. 2, one of "blue 7", "red 7", "white 7", and "blue 7" is arranged on each reel 31. Therefore, the symbol combination of 1BB is “PB≠1”.
Further, when 1BBA wins and shifts to 1BBA game, RBA (regular bonus) continuously operates. No symbol combination corresponding to RBA is provided.

RBA ends with two games or two winnings, or the end of the operation of 1BBA. The operation end condition for 1BBA is set to payout of medals exceeding 264. Therefore, during the operation of 1BBA, the RBA is continuously operated until the game is played twice or the prize is won twice, and it is determined whether or not the payout of more than 264 medals has been made in each game. When the medals exceeding 264 have not been paid out, the RBA is continued. Then, when two games or two winnings are achieved by continuous operation of the RBA, the operation of the RBA is once ended. Next, it is determined whether more than 264 medals have been paid out. When the medals have been paid out more than 264, the operation end condition of 1BBA is satisfied, so the operation of 1BBA is ended. As a result, the operation of RBA is also completed. On the other hand, when it is determined that the medals exceeding 264 have not been paid out, the operation of the RBA is started again.

Further, when 1BBC or 1BBC wins respectively and shifts to 1BBB game and 1BBC game, respectively, RBB (regular bonus) operates continuously. No symbol combination corresponding to RBB is provided. Continuous operation of RBB during 1BBB or 1BBC operation is similar to 1BBA and RBA described above. The 1BBB operation and the 1BBC operation end with the payout of more than 242 medals.

Further, the 2BB of the present embodiment includes three types of 2BBA to 2BBC.
For example, the symbol combination of 2BBA is set to "blue 7/watermelon A"-"bell"-"bell", and the symbols of each reel 31 are all arranged at "PB=1". Similarly, the symbol combination of 2BBB is "red 7/replay B/watermelon B"-"bell"-"bell", and the symbol combination of 2BBC is "blue 7/watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-" Replay A”, and the symbols on each reel 31 are all arranged in “PB=1”.
Therefore, 2BB of this embodiment wins with “PB=1”.
During the 2BB operation, the CB is set to operate continuously. No CB symbol combination is provided.
The 2BBA to 2BBC games of this embodiment are all ended by paying out more than one medal or by SB operation (SB winning). The 2BB game is in a situation where the CBs are continuously operating, but in this case, it means that the winning flags of all the small wins are set (all the small wins can win). .. Hereinafter, this situation is referred to as “winning ALL”.

During the 2BB game, predetermined replays (replays C and D) and SB are drawn.
During the 2BB game, when neither the predetermined replays (replays C and D) nor the SB has been won, the winning flag of the winning ALL is set by the operation of the CB, and one of the small wins is won. The small winning combination that wins during CB operation also changes depending on the pressing order and operation timing. This point will be described later.

Even if the player wins the SB in the 2BB game, the SB does not win, and the winning ALL is controlled to be prioritized. Since the winning of the SB during the 2BB game satisfies the ending condition of the 2BB game, it is controlled so as to end the 2BB game in the game.
Furthermore, when the replay C or D is won in the 2BB game, the replay C or D that is won is controlled in the game so as to win. In this case, the game is replayed, and the condition of "payout of more than one card", which is the ending condition of the 2BB game, is not satisfied, so the next game is also a 2BB game (replay by winning the replay). Therefore, in the 2BB game, as long as the player continues to win the replay C or D, the 2BB game does not end.

When starting a game, the player inserts medals that have been stored in advance by operating the bet switch 40 (storage bet) or inserts medals through the medal insertion slot 43 (care bet). When the start switch 41 is operated with a prescribed number of medals corresponding to the gaming state being betted, a signal generated at that time is input to the main control board 50. When this signal is received, the main control board 50 (specifically, the reel control means 65 described later) performs the lottery of the winning numbers by the hand lottery means 61, and drives and controls all the motors 32 to perform all the operations. The reel 31 is controlled to rotate. As the reel 31 is thus rotated by the motor 32, the symbols on the reel 31 are moved and displayed in the vertical direction in the display window 17 at a predetermined speed.

Then, the player pushes the stop switch 42 to stop the rotation of the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 (for example, the left reel 31 corresponding to the left stop switch 42). When the stop switch 42 is operated, the signal generated at that time is input to the main control board 50. Upon receiving this signal, the main control board 50 (specifically, a reel control means 65 to be described later) drives and controls the motor 32 corresponding to the stop switch 42 to correspond to the lottery result of the winning combination lottery means 61. Thus, the stop control of the reel 31 related to the motor 32 is performed.

Then, the game result of the current game is displayed by the symbol combination when all reels 31 are stopped. Further, when the symbol combination corresponding to any of the winning combinations is stopped on the activated line (when the winning combination of the winning combination is achieved), the payout of medals corresponding to the winning combination is performed.

Next, a specific configuration of the main control board 50 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the main CPU 55 of the main control board 50 includes the following role lottery means 61 and the like. The following respective means in the present embodiment are exemplifications and are not limited to the means shown in the present embodiment.

The role lottery means 61 performs lottery (determination, selection) of the winning numbers. Then, when the winning number is determined, the winning and replay condition device number and the accessory condition device number are determined based on the winning number, and the winning and replay condition device and the accessory which are operable in the game. The condition device will be determined. Therefore, the role lottery means 61 is also called a condition device number determination (lottery or selection) means, a winning combination determination (lottery or selection) means, or the like.

The role lottery means 61 is based on, for example, a random number generating means (hardware random number) for lottery, a random number extracting means for extracting a random number generated by this random number generating means, and a random number value extracted by the random number extracting means. And a winning number determining means for determining the winning number.

The random number generation means generates a random number in a predetermined area (for example, "0" to "65535" in decimal). The random number is, for example, a counter that counts 1 at 200 n (nano) sec and continues counting as one cycle in the range of “0” to “65535”. While the slot machine 10 is powered on, the random number is Keep counting.

The random number extraction means extracts the random number generated by the random number generation means at a predetermined time, in the present embodiment, when the start switch 41 is operated (turned on) by the player. The determination means determines the winning number corresponding to the area to which the random value belongs by collating the random number value extracted by the random number extraction means with a lottery table described later. For example, when the extracted random number value belongs to the area of the winning number "1", the winning number of the game is determined to be "1". When the winning number is "1", the winning and replay condition device number in the game is "1" (replay A1), and the accessory condition device number is "0".

FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 are diagrams showing the winning numbers drawn by the winning lottery means 61, the condition device numbers corresponding to the winning numbers, the contents of the winning combinations included in the condition device numbers, and the like.
In FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the winning numbers “0” to “38” are serial numbers including all winnings of special winning combinations, small winning combinations, and replays.
Further, "number 1" is a winning and replay condition device number (condition device number not including a special role).
Furthermore, "number 2" is an accessory condition device number including a special combination.

As described above, among the winning numbers “0” to “38”, the winning numbers “0” to “22” are winning numbers that do not include a special part, and the winning numbers “23” to “38” are , Is a winning number including special roles. Accordingly, by determining whether or not the winning number determined by the role lottery means 61 is less than “23”, the process of determining (generating) the prize and replay condition device number and the accessory condition device number is simplified. You can

Specifically, when the winning number is less than "23", the determined winning number can be stored as it is in the predetermined address of the RWM 53 as the winning and replay condition device number.
On the other hand, when the winning number is not less than “23”, the control process for generating the accessory condition device number and the winning and replay condition device number is executed from the determined winning number. For example, a specific table for generating the accessory condition device number and the winning and replay condition device number from the winning number is provided. Then, based on the winning number and the specific table, it is possible to generate the accessory condition device number and the prize and replay condition device number, the generated accessory condition device number, and the generated prize and replay condition device number, Each can be stored in a predetermined address of the RWM 53.

In a situation where any of "1" to "4" is stored in the address storing the accessory condition device number (so-called inside the special role (1BB)), the winning numbers "23" to "38" are stored. When one of the winning numbers is won, the accessory condition device number generated based on the winning number is controlled not to be overwritten on the address storing the accessory condition device number.

In FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the “production GRP (group) number” is set in association with the winning and replay condition device number and is a number transmitted to the sub control board 80. The sub control board 80 determines an effect based on the effect group number received from the main control board 50. For example, the production group numbers of the winning numbers “8 (small role A1)” to “13 (small role A6)” are all “6”. Upon receiving the effect group number “6”, the sub-control board 80 can output an effect corresponding to the winning of the bell.

Here, in a non-AT game (a game in which the correct answer push order is not notified), the main control board 50 transmits the decided effect group number to the sub control board 80, but the decided push The forward instruction number is not transmitted to the sub control board 80. Then, on the side of the sub-control board 80, in the non-AT game, the effect is determined based on the received effect group number. Therefore, for example, when the production group number “6” is received, an effect indicating that one of the bells (or the small roles) has been won (for example, in the color effect, a yellow effect corresponding to the bell, or It is possible to output a white effect corresponding to the combination of No., but it is not possible to output an effect related to the correct pressing order. Further, since the pushing order instruction number is not transmitted from the main control board 50 to the sub control board 80, the sub control board 80 or the information transmission path between the main control board 50 and the sub control board 80 is invalid. Since it is not possible to illegally obtain the correct pressing order by attaching an electronic device, it is possible to prevent the goto act.

On the other hand, in the AT game (i.e., the game informing the correct push order), the main control board 50 transmits the push order instruction number and the effect group number to the sub control board 80. As a result, the sub control board 80 can output, in addition to the effect of the winning combination, an effect related to the correct pressing order separately from the operation of the instruction function by the main control board 50.

In FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, RTs that are objects of lottery are indicated by “◯”. For example, in the replay B of the winning number "2", it means that the lottery is selected during the non-RT, RT2, and SB games.
In the “setting difference”, “present” means that the winning probabilities of the winning numbers are not the same for all the set values. On the other hand, when the “setting difference” is “none”, it indicates that the winning probability of the winning number is the same for all the setting values.
It should be noted that “not all setting values are the same” means that the winning probabilities in at least one setting value are different from the winning probabilities in at least one other setting value, except that the winning probabilities are different in all of the settings 1 to 6. Including that.
As described above, in the case where the lottery for the advantageous section is performed in association with the winning numbers, it is necessary to perform the lottery when the winning numbers having no setting difference are determined. Therefore, the winning numbers capable of executing the lottery in the advantageous section are limited to those having the "no setting".

Furthermore, "lottery during advantageous zone" means lottery related to AT in the advantageous zone (specifically, CZ rank lottery, CZ rank addition lottery, which will be described later, additional lottery, precursor counter addition lottery, continuous lottery (individual continuation Lottery or common continuous lottery) or the like) is executed, and in the figure, “◯” means that any one of these lottery is executed during the advantageous section. In the present embodiment, during the advantageous zone, during the replay D win during the 2BB game, during the small win group A win, during the small wins B to E win, during the SB win during the 2BB game, during the RBB (1BBB or 1BBC) game. Any of these lottery is executed at the time of winning the small winning combinations H, I, and J, at the time of winning the 1BBB, at the time of winning the 1BBC, and at the time of winning the 2BB.

In FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the winning numbers for winning the replay are winning numbers “1” to “7”, and the winning numbers for winning the small wins are the winning numbers “8” to “22”. .. In addition, the winning numbers of the special roles (single winning of the special role or double winning of the special role and the small role or replay) are the winning numbers “23” to “38”.
In the present embodiment, the winning of the special role corresponds to the winning of 1BB, 2BB or SB, and corresponds to the winning numbers “23” to “38” and the numbers 2 of “1” to “7”.

Here, when the number 2 is “1”, it indicates that the winning special combination is 1BBA, when it is “2”, it indicates that the winning special combination is 1BBB, and is “3”. Indicates that the winning special role is 1BBC. Similarly, when the number 2 is “4”, it indicates that the special winning combination is 2BBA, when it is “5”, it indicates that the special winning combination is 2BBB, and when it is “6”. Indicates that the special role won is 2BBC. Similarly, when the number 2 is "7", it indicates that the winning special combination is SB.

In FIG. 9, for example, when the winning number is "1", the winning and replay condition device number is "1" (replay A winning), and the accessory condition device number is "0".
On the other hand, for example, when the winning number is "23", the winning and replay condition device number is "0", and the accessory condition device number is "7" (SB single winning).

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, there is a case where the special combination and the small combination or the replay are duplicately won. For example, the winning number "24" is the double winning of 1BBA and the small combination B, and the winning and replay condition device numbers are “14” and the accessory condition device number is “1”.
In addition, when the special combination and the small combination or the replay are won, the winning of the small combination or the replay is prioritized in this game (this priority can be set arbitrarily). Also, since the winning of the small role or the replay is effective only in the game this time, the winning is not carried over to the next game, but the winning information of 1BB is carried over to the next game unless a prize is won.

Particularly in the first embodiment, when the condition device relating to the small win and the replay is activated, the small win and the replay are arranged so that “PB=1” is obtained. Therefore, in a game in which a special role and a small role or replay are won, the winning small role or replay wins first, and the winning special role does not win. In addition, at the time of the special winning of the special role alone, by pushing the symbol relating to the winning special role, it is possible to win the special role winning in the game.

Next, the symbol array (FIG. 2) in the present embodiment will be described. In the following description of the symbol arrangement, "PB=1" excludes the middle reel 31 that is operating 2BB.
As shown in FIG. 2, in the middle and right reels 31, four "Replay A" are arranged at a 5 symbol interval. As a result, the "replay A" of the middle and right reels 31 has the "PB=1" arrangement. In addition, when the number of symbols of the reel 31 is set to "20" and the maximum number of moving symbols is set to "4", if four target symbols are arranged at five symbol intervals, the target symbol becomes "PB=1".
Further, the “watermelon A” of the middle reel 31 is arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less, and is “PB=1” arrangement (the middle reel 31 of the replay 04).
Similarly, in all the reels 31, four "bells" are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols. As a result, the "bells" of all reels 31 are in the "PB=1" arrangement.

Furthermore, on the left reel 31, five "Replay A" or "Replay B" are arranged at intervals within 5 symbols. As a result, in the left reel 31, the total of “Replay A/Replay B” is “PB=1” arrangement.
Similarly, in the middle reel 31, four "watermelons B" or "cherries" are arranged at five symbol intervals. As a result, in the middle reel 31, the total number of “watermelon B/cherry” is “PB=1”.

Furthermore, in the left reel 31, either "watermelon A" or "blue 7" is arranged at five symbol intervals. As a result, the “watermelon A/blue 7” of the left reel 31 is in the “PB=1” arrangement (the left reel 31 of 2BBA and 2BBC).
Further, on the left reel 31, any one of "red 7", "replay B", and "watermelon B" is arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less. As a result, the "red 7/replay B/watermelon B" on the left reel 31 is in the "PB=1" arrangement (2BBB, replay 04, and the left reel 31 of the small win 07).

Furthermore, in the middle reel 31, five "watermelon A" are arranged at intervals within 5 symbols. As a result, the “watermelon A” of the middle reel 31 is in the “PB=1” arrangement.
Further, in the right reel 31, four "watermelon A" or "replay B" are arranged at a 5-symbol interval. As a result, the “watermelon A/replay B” of the right reel 31 is in the “PB=1” arrangement (the right reel 31 of the small win 03).

Further, on the right reel 31, "cherries" are arranged at five symbol intervals. Therefore, the "cherry" of the right reel 31 is in the "PB=1" arrangement (the right reel 31 of the small winning combinations 12 to 14).
Furthermore, on the left reel 31, "blank", "white 7", "replay B", "watermelon B", and "red 7" are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less. Therefore, the total of these symbols is “PB=1” arrangement (left reel 31 of replay 02).
Furthermore, in the right reel 31, "blue 7", "blank", "white 7", or "red 7" is arranged at a total of 5 symbols in these 4 symbols. PB=1” arrangement (right reel 31 of replay 02). That is, no matter which timing the stop switch 42 is operated, any of “blue 7”, “blank”, “white 7”, or “red 7” can be stopped on the activated line.

Hereinafter, the winning numbers and the condition devices therefor in FIGS. 9 and 10 will be described.
The winning number "0" is a winning number which is a non-winning (so-called loss) of the winning combination.
Replay A with the winning number “1” and Replay B with the winning number “2” are both duplicate wins of replays including Replay 01. When the condition device is activated, Replay 01 is won. It should be noted that during the SB game, the player may win the replay B only at the non-RT time.
Replay C with the winning number “3” and Replay D with the winning number “4” are wins of the replay including the replay 05, and when the condition device is activated, the replay 05 is controlled to win. Replay C is a replay having a setting difference in winning probability (described later), while Replay D is a replay having no setting difference. During the 2BB game, the replay C and the replay D are selected by lottery, and when the replay D is won, a lottery (described later) regarding the advantageous section (AT) is executed.
When the Replay C and the Replay D are won, the Replay 05 wins in both cases, so it is not apparent to the player which player wins.

The winning numbers “5” to “7” are the replay E group. The replay E group has three types of replays E1 to E3, and is a duplicate win of replays including replays 02 and 04 as winning combinations, respectively.
During the Replay E group winning, the reel 31 is stop-controlled so that the Replay 02 wins at a specific first stop and the Replay 04 wins at another first stop.
When the condition device of the replay E1 is operating, the replay 02 is awarded when the pushing order is "1--" (meaning the first stop on the left), and the replay 04 is awarded when the first stop is on the middle or the right.
In addition, when the condition device of Replay E2 is operating, Replay 02 is awarded when the pushing order is “−1−” (meaning first stop in the middle), and Replay 04 is awarded when the first stop is left or right. ..
Furthermore, when the condition device of Replay E3 is activated, Replay 02 is awarded when the pushing order is “−1” (meaning first stop on the right), and Replay 04 is awarded when the first stop on the left or middle is performed. Let

In the present embodiment, the winning numbers “5” to “7” are selected in RT2, RT2 is maintained at the time of winning Replay 02, and functions as an RT transition replay that moves (falls) from RT2 to RT1 at the time of winning Replay 04. To do.
It should be noted that in the case of replay duplicate winning, since the replay (re-playing combination) is won regardless of the pushing order, there is no high/low concept of payout of medals or the like. However, when the replay E1 is won at RT2, the replay 02 is won at the first stop on the left, and RT2 is maintained. On the other hand, in the middle or right first stop, the replay 04 wins and shifts from RT2 to RT1 (RT which is more disadvantageous to the player than RT2).

The small winning combination A1 to small winning combination A6 with the winning numbers “8” to “13” are so-called pushing order bells with six selections in the pushing order. The condition devices for the small winning combination A1 and the small winning combination A2 include small winning combinations 01 and 08 as winning combinations. Then, when the answer is correct in the push order, small prize 01 (11 pieces when the accessory is not operated) is awarded, and when the answer is incorrect in the push order, small prize 08 (3 pieces) is awarded.
In the pressing order bell, the pressing order “123” in the figure means the pressing order “left center right”. Similarly, the pressing order “132” indicates the pressing order “left/right center”, the pressing order “213” indicates the pressing order “center left/right”, the pressing order “312” indicates the pressing order “center right/left”, and the pressing order “231” indicates the pressing order “middle right, left”, and the pressing order “321” indicates the pressing order “middle left, right”.
Note that, unlike the present embodiment, it is also possible to set a certain percentage of winning combinations (non-winning of winning combinations) when a wrong pressing order is obtained during the pressing sequence bell winning. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, three small wins 08 are set to win a prize when “PB=1” when the pushing order is incorrect.

First, the “small role A1” will be described as an example.
The order of pressing the correct answers at the time of winning the small role A1 is "123 (left middle right)". Therefore, at the first stop on the left, the small winning combination 01 is won. The symbol combination of the small win 01 is "blue 7/watermelon A"-"bell"-"bell", and the "bell" is "PB=1" arrangement in all reels 31, so the small win 01 is always won. Can be made
At the time of the first stop on the left side, it is unclear whether the pushing order is correct or incorrect, but when the left reel 31 is stopped, "Blue 7/Watermelon" is always displayed on the upper left stage (effective line; see FIG. 3). "A" is stopped.

On the other hand, in the middle or right first stop, the incorrect pushing order is determined at this point, so that the small win 01 is not won, but the small win 08 is controlled.
For example, at the middle first stop, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line (middle middle). Then, in this case, "Blue 7/Watermelon A" is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped thereafter, and "Replay B/Watermelon A" is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped.
Similarly, at the first stop on the right side, “Replay B/Watermelon A” is stopped on the activated line (lower right stage). Then, in this case, "blue 7/watermelon A" is stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped thereafter, and "bell" is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped.

When "Blue 7/Watermelon A" is stopped in the upper left row at the first stop on the left, and when it is the second stop on the middle, the correct pushing order is determined at this point. Stop "Replay A" in the middle row. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped thereafter, the "bell" is stopped at the lower right stage.
On the other hand, when "Blue 7/Watermelon A" is stopped in the upper left stage at the first stop on the left, and if it is the second stop on the right, the incorrect pushing order is determined at this point, so the second stop on the right is stopped. Sometimes, "Replay B/Watermelon A" is stopped at the lower right. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped thereafter, the "bell" is stopped in the middle and middle stages.

As described above, when the pushing order is correct, "blue 7/watermelon A"-"replay A"-"bell" is stopped on the activated line. At this time, the "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (lower horizontal bell) stops at "lower left"-"middle lower"-"lower right".
When the pushing order is incorrect, "Blue 7/Watermelon A"-"Bell"-"Replay B/Watermelon A" is stopped on the activated line. At this time, "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (upward-right bell) stops at "lower left"-"middle middle"-"upper right".

The above control is the same for the small winning combinations A2 to A6. When the condition device of the small winning combination A2 is operated, the small winning combination 01 is won when the correct answer pressing order is "132", and the small winning combination 08 is won when the correct pressing order is "132".

The condition devices for the small winning combinations A3 and A4 include a small winning combination 02 that wins when the correct answer is in the pushing order and a small winning combination 08 that wins when the answer is incorrect in the pushing order.
For example, when the condition device of the small winning combination A3 is operating, the correct answer pushing order is "213 (middle left and right)". In this case, when the medium first stop, since the pressing order correct answer/incorrect answer is not determined at this point, the symbol relating to the middle reel 31 of the small win 02 is stopped in the middle middle stage. Here, the symbol of the middle reel 31 of the small winning combination 02 is "ANY" (the winning combination number "047" in FIG. 6), but in the present embodiment, the "bell" is controlled to be stopped.

Next, when it is the second stop on the left, the correct answer to the pushing order is determined at this point, so when the left reel 31 is stopped, the "bell" is stopped on the upper left stage. Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the "bell" is stopped at the lower right stage. As a result, a downward-sloping bell is used.
On the other hand, if it is the right second stop after the middle first stop, the pushing order is incorrect at this point, so in order to win the small role 08, "Replay B / Watermelon A" is stopped in the lower right stage. .. Then, when the left reel 31 is stopped, "blue 7/watermelon A" is stopped in the upper left stage (upward bell).

In addition, when the condition device of the small win A3 is operating, the pressing order becomes incorrect at the time of the first stop on the left, so to win the small win 08, "Blue 7/Watermelon A" is stopped in the upper left stage. Let After that, the "bell" is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, and the "replay B/watermelon A" is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped (rightward bell).
When the condition device of the small winning combination A3 is operating, each reel 31 is stopped in the same manner as above (first upward bell) even when the first right stop is performed.
When the condition device of the small winning combination A4 is operated, the correct answer pushing order is "312 (middle right left)". In this case, as in the case of operating the small winning combination A3 condition device, the small winning combination 02 is won when the pushing order is correct, and the small winning combination 08 is awarded when the pushing order is incorrect.

The condition devices for the small winning combination A5 and the small winning combination A6 include a small winning combination 03 that wins when the correct answer is in the pushing order, and a small winning combination 08 that wins when the wrong answer is in the pushing order.
For example, when the condition device of the small role A5 is operating, the correct answer pushing order is "231 (right left middle)". In this case, when it is the first stop on the right side, since the pushing order correct answer/incorrect answer has not been determined at this point, the symbol “Replay B/Watermelon A”, which is the symbol relating to the right reel 31 of the small win 03, is moved to the lower right. Stop in the middle stage.

Next, when it is the second stop on the left, the correct answer to the pushing order is determined at this point, so when the left reel 31 is stopped, the "bell" is stopped on the upper left stage. Further, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the “watermelon B/cherry” is stopped in the middle/middle stage. As a result, the upper horizontal bell is stopped.
On the other hand, after the first stop on the right side and the second stop on the middle side, the pushing order is incorrect at this point. Therefore, in order to win the small role 08, the "bell" is stopped on the middle and middle stages. Then, when the left reel 31 is stopped, "blue 7/watermelon A" is stopped in the upper left stage (upward bell).

In addition, when the condition device of the small win A5 is operating, the pressing order becomes incorrect at the time of the first stop on the left, so to win the small win 08, stop "Blue 7/Watermelon A" in the upper left stage. Let After that, the "bell" is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, and the "replay B/watermelon A" is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped (rightward bell).
When the condition device for the small winning combination A5 is operating, each reel 31 is stopped in the same manner as above (first upward bell) even when the middle first stop is performed.
When the condition device of the small role A6 is operating, the correct answer pressing order is "321 (right middle left)". In this case, as in the case of operating the small win A5 condition device, the small win 03 is won when the correct answer is in the pushing order, and the small win 08 is won when the incorrect answer is in the pushing order.

The small winning combination B (common bell) with the winning number "14" is a condition device that is controlled so that the bells are stopped regardless of the pressing order, and includes small winning combinations 04 to 07 as winning winning combinations. When the condition device of the small winning combination B operates, the symbol combination of the small winning combination 07 is stopped on the activated line. The symbol combination of the small role 07 is "Red 7/Replay B/Watermelon B"-"Bell"-"Replay A", but when this symbol combination stops on the activated line, the bell alignment stops on the horizontal middle line. To do.

The small winning combination C (strong cherry) with the winning number “15” is a condition device for which the small winning combinations 12 to 14 are duplicated. When the condition device of the small winning combination C is activated, the small winning combination 14 is controlled to win. The symbol combination of the small winning combination 14 is "blank/bell"-"bell"-"cherry", but if the "bell" number 12 is stopped in the upper left stage when the left reel 31 is stopped, the number 10 in the lower left stage. "Cherry" stops. Further, when the "bell" of No. 1, 6, or 11 is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped, "cherry" is stopped in the middle and lower stages. Furthermore, when the right reel 31 is stopped, "cherry" is stopped in the lower stage. Therefore, when the player presses "cherry" on the lower row when the reels 31 are stopped, the cherry line (three cherries) is stopped on the lower row (straight line).

Unlike the small winning combination C, the small winning combination D (weak cherry) of the winning number “16” is a condition device in which the cherry set does not stop. When the condition device of the small winning combination D is activated, the small winning combination 13 which is one of the winning combinations is controlled to be won. The symbol combination of the small winning combination 13 is "bell"-"watermelon B/cherry"-"cherry", but when the middle reel 31 is stopped, unlike the above-mentioned small winning combination C, "cherry" is stopped in the middle lower stage. Since it does not, the cherry line does not stop on a straight line.

The winning combination “E” (watermelon A) with the winning number “17” is a condition device that can stop the watermelon alignment on the horizontal line, and includes winning combinations 15 and 16. When the condition device of the small winning combination E is operating, the small winning combination 15 is stopped at the effective line. The symbol combination of the small winning combination 15 is "blue 7"-"watermelon A"-"red 7/blue 7/blank", but when "blue 7" is stopped in the upper left when the left reel 31 is stopped, the left middle stage "Watermelon B" stops. Further, when "Red 7/Blue 7/Blank" is stopped at the lower right stage when the right reel 31 is stopped, "Watermelon A" is stopped at the right middle stage. Therefore, in this case, the watermelons are aligned on the middle horizontal line.
The small winning combination F (watermelon B) with the winning number “18” is a condition device that allows the watermelon alignment to be stopped on the activated line (downward right line). In this case, the small winning combination 16 or the small winning combination 17 is stopped on the activated line.

The winning number "19" is drawn during the SB game. The small role G (Yasume ALL), which is the condition device when the winning number “19” is won, is a condition device in which the small wins 08 to 11 are duplicated. When the condition device is operating, it is controlled so that the small winning combination 08, which is a payout of three sheets, is won. The stop control at this time is the same as the stop control at the time of incorrect answer of the pushing order at the time of winning the small winning combination A described above.
The winning number "20" is drawn during the SB game, the RBA game, and the RBB game. The small role H (small role ALL), which is a condition device when the winning number “20” is won, is a condition device in which all small wins, that is, small wins 01 to 17 are duplicated. When the condition device is activated, it is controlled so as to win the small winning combination 01 (the bells on the lower line). This stop control is the same as that at the time of the correct answer in the pushing order when the small winning combination A1 or A2 is won. When the condition device for the small winning combination H is operating, it is possible to change the winning small winning combination depending on the order of pressing. For example, the small win 01 may be awarded when the first stop on the left side, the small win 02 may be awarded when the first stop on the middle side, and the small win 03 may be awarded when the first stop on the right side. In any case, one of the small wins 01 to 03 should be awarded.

The winning number “21” is drawn during the RBA game and the RBB game. The small win I (oblique bell), which is a condition device when the winning number “21” is won, is a condition device for which the small win 02 is independently won. This part has a role as a weak rare part during the BB game. In the present embodiment, the rare combination (the combination having a low winning probability) during the BB game includes a weak rare with a winning number "21" and a strong rare with a winning number "22" described later. Then, at the time of winning of these winning numbers, the lottery regarding the advantageous section (AT) is executed. Furthermore, when a strong rare is won, lottery related to the advantageous section (AT) is preferentially given compared to when a weak rare is won. That is, when a strong rare is elected, the probability of deciding to move to the advantageous section is higher than that of the weak rare, the probability of deciding to move to AT is higher than that of the weak rare, and the number of games of the advantageous section or AT is added. The probability of determining the number is higher than that of the weak rare, the expected value of the number of additional games of the advantageous section or AT is greater than that of the weak rare, and the like. In the present embodiment, in a CZ rank addition lottery described later, when a strong rare is won, a lottery is given preferential treatment to when a weak rare is won.

When the winning number "21" is won and the condition device of the small win I is operating, the same stop control as that at the time of pressing order correct answer at the time of winning the small win A2 or A3 is executed, and the effective line, that is, the right downward line is displayed. Bell alignment stops.
The winning number "22" is, similarly to the winning number "21", drawn during the RBA game and the RBB game. The small role J (V bell), which is the condition device when the winning number “22” is won, is a condition device in which the small win 06 and the small win 18 are duplicated. This part has a role as a strong rare part during the 1BB game.
When the condition device of the small winning combination J is activated, the small winning combination 06 is controlled to be won. As a result, the bell alignment is stopped at the “upper left stage”-“middle middle stage”-“upper right stage” (V line).

The winning numbers “23” to “38” are winning numbers including the special combination.
The winning number "23" is a winning number which is a single winning of SB. Since the symbol combination of SB is “PB≠1”, there is a case where no prize is won in the game. Also, the winning of SB will not be carried over to the next game or later.
In addition, 1BBA does not win independently, and wins with any of the small wins (win numbers “24” to “27”).
Furthermore, 1BBB has a single win (win number “28”) and a double win (win numbers “29” to “31”).

Similarly, 1BBC has a single win (winning number “32”) and a double win (winning numbers “33” to “35”).
When 1BBA to 1BBC and one of the small wins are double-winned, the winning of the double win of the small win is prioritized in the game, and the winning of the winning 1BBA to 1BBC is carried over after the next game. ..
Further, when 1BBB or 1BBC is won independently, it is possible to stop on the active line by pressing the symbols of these special characters in the game, but if no prize is won, the winning will be carried over to the next game or later.
The winning numbers “36” to “38” are winning numbers that are independent winnings of 2BBA to 2BBC, respectively. As described above, the symbol combination of 2BB in the present embodiment is "PB=1", so there is no case where the winning game of 2BB is always won and the winning of 2BB is carried over to the next game or later.

11 to 18 are winning probabilities determined by the lottery table when the winning lottery means 61 draws the winning numbers, and show the numbers of the winning numbers for each RT (game state) and each set value. It is a figure (numerical table). Dividing the numerical values shown in FIGS. 11 to 18 by “65536” gives the winning probability. For example, in FIG. 11, the number of the winning number “1” is “8978” common to all the settings, and the winning probability is “8978/65536”.

11 to 18, the names of the lottery tables are shown. For example, the lottery table used in the non-RT of FIG. 11 includes a lottery table “TBL_LOT_RT0” for replay lottery, a lottery table “TBL_LOT_WIN1” for small win lottery, and a lottery table “TBL_LOT_BNS” for special role lottery.
As shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, during the RBA game and the RBB game, the lottery table for the special role lottery is not used (the special role is not drawn).

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a numerical table in non-RT. In non-RT replays, push order replays (replay E group) and rare replays (replays C and D) are not drawn, but only normal replays with winning numbers “1” and “2” are drawn. However, the winning probability (total value) of replays is set to a high probability as in RT2 described later. As will be described later, the reason for setting this is that after the end of the 1BBA game, it does not move to the advantageous section, but it shifts to this non-RT, and in the non-RT, the next special role without reducing the medals so much. This is to be able to wait for the winning of.

In addition, the winning numbers “8” to “17” are randomly selected for the small winning combination. Furthermore, all the winning numbers “23” to “38” are selected by lottery as special roles.
Among the special roles, 1BBA is set so that the winning probabilities are not the same in all set values (the higher the setting, the higher the winning probability). On the other hand, SB, 1BBB, 1BBC, and 2BBA to 2BBC have the same winning probability in all set values.

When the lottery, determination, etc. regarding the advantageous section in the normal section are performed in association with the winning number, it can be executed when the winning number having the same winning probability in all the set values is won. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when winning including 1BBB, 1BBC, and 2BB, it shifts to the advantageous section. In addition, for example, in the case of multiple wins such as “1BBB+small winning combination C” such as the winning number “29”, it is advantageous that the winning probabilities in the combination of a plurality of winning combinations are the same in all set values. It is a condition for making it possible to execute a lottery, a decision, etc. regarding AT). Therefore, if the 1BBB single-winning probability has a setting difference, it is not possible to perform a lottery or a decision regarding the advantageous section (AT) when the 1BBB single-winning is selected, but "1BBB+small win C" (1BBB overlap 1) When there is no setting difference, when this 1BBB overlapping win 1 is achieved, it is possible to perform a lottery, a decision, etc. regarding the advantageous section (AT).

In particular, in the present embodiment, as will be described later, at the time of winning the 1BBB or 1BBC in the normal section, the CZ rank lottery is set to win the "4" (win the AT) with a probability of "4/256". (FIG. 23B described later). In addition, when 2BB is won in the normal section, the CZ rank lottery is executed in the same manner as described above, but in this CZ rank lottery, "0" is always won, that is, the AT is not won. (FIG. 23B described later). When the SB is won, the lottery related to the advantageous section is not executed.
Further, during the operation of 1BBB or 1BBC, or during the operation of 2BB, a CZ rank addition lottery (FIG. 31, which will be described later, AT win when “1” or more) is executed according to the operated condition device.

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a number table in RT1. At RT1, only the replay A with the winning number “1” is selected by lottery. Further, the small winning combination and the special winning combination are the same as the non-RT.
FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a number table in RT2. The above-mentioned non-RT and RT1 are RTs scheduled to stay in the non-AT, while RT2 is RTs scheduled to stay in the AT. Since the AT of the present embodiment uses ART (replay winning probability is high probability), the replay winning probability is set to be high at RT2.
Specifically, in RT2, in addition to winning numbers “1” and “2” (replay A and replay B), lottery of winning numbers “5” to “7” (replays E1 to E3) is executed. The numbers of the winning numbers “5” to “7” increase the replay winning probability at RT2.

FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a number table in RT3. RT3 is the RT when the inside of 1BB is reached. In FIG. 14, "TBL_LOT_BNS" for drawing a special combination is used in the same manner as other RTs. However, for example, when a special combination is individually won at RT3 (when a random number corresponding to the single winning of the special combination is obtained). ) Is rewritten as non-win (“*1” in the figure). Further, when a random number corresponding to the double winning of the special role and the small role is obtained, it is rewritten to the single winning of the small role which is double-winned with the special role (“*2” in the figure). Furthermore, at RT3, the replay C of the winning number "3" and the replay D of the winning number "4" are drawn.

FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a numerical table during an RBA game (during a 1BBA game). During the RBA game, the lottery table including winning of the replay and the special role is not used, and as shown in FIG. 15, only “TBL_LOT_1BB1”, which is the lottery table for performing the lottery of the small winning combination H to the small winning combination J, is used. In addition, the winning probability in the combination of the small winning combination H to the small winning combination J is set to "65536/65536" with any of the set values.

FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a numerical table during an RBB game (1BBB or 1BBC game). During the RBB game, the lottery table including winning of the replay and the special role is not used, and as shown in FIG. 16, only “TBL_LOT_1BB2”, which is the lottery table for performing the lottery of the small winning combination H to the small winning combination J, is used. In addition, with any set value, the winning probability of the small winning combination H to the small winning combination J is set to “65536/65536”. During the RBB game, the winning probabilities of the small role I (BB medium weak rare) and the small role J (BB medium strong rare) are set to be higher than those during the RBA game.
Furthermore, at the time of winning the small winning combination during operation of 1BBB or 1BBC, a lottery related to the AT (CZ rank addition lottery to be described later (FIG. 31(b))) is executed. I don't have it.

FIG. 17 is a diagram showing a numerical table during the SB game. During the SB game, the lottery including the special part is performed with the same winning probability as the non-RT. As for replay, Replay A and Replay B are selected by lottery. However, the replay B is drawn only in the SB game when the SB is won in the non-RT. Furthermore, for the small winning combination, a small winning combination G and a small winning combination H are drawn.
FIG. 18 is a diagram showing a numerical table during a 2BB game. In the 2BB game, the winning flag of the winning ALL is set separately from the winning combination lottery result by the winning combination lottery means 61. The winning ALL is equivalent to the condition device (small winning ALL) of the winning number “20”, and winning flags of small winning 01 to small winning 17 are set.

However, as shown in FIG. 18, a lottery for replay, small win, and special win (SB) is executed. When the player wins the replay C or D, the winning flag in the game is “replay C or D+winning ALL”, but the winning of the replay C or D is prioritized, and the small win is not won.
Furthermore, Replay D does not have a difference in winning probability setting. When the Replay D is won during the operation of 2BB, a lottery on the AT (a CZ rank addition lottery described later (FIG. 31(b))) is executed.
Also, when a small winning combination is won, the winning flag is rewritten to winning ALL (“*” in the figure).
Furthermore, when the player wins the SB, the winning prize is ALL+SB, but the winning of the small win is prioritized.

In the 2BB game in which all the prizes are won (replays and non-winning SB games), as described later, a predetermined small winning combination is set to be won according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the operation timing. ing.
The 2BB game ends with a payout of more than one card. Therefore, when the winning ALL is reached, one of the small wins is won, and the 2BB game is finished in the game (1 game).
On the other hand, when Replay C or D wins, there is no payout in the game, so the 2BB game is continued in the next game. That is, for example, as long as the player continues to win the replay C or D, the 2BB game does not end.

The description returns to FIG.
The winning flag control means 62 controls ON/OFF of the winning flag corresponding to each winning combination, based on the lottery result obtained by the winning combination lottery means 61. In the present embodiment, a winning flag is provided for each winning combination for all winning combinations. When any of the winning combination is won in the lottery by the winning combination lottery means 61, the winning flag of the winning combination is turned on (the winning flag is set).

For example, in a non-internal medium game, when the winning number becomes "1", three winning flags of Replay 01, 02, and 03 included in the condition device (Replay A) corresponding to the winning number "1" are turned on. The winning flags of other roles are turned off.
Similarly, in the non-internal medium game, when the winning number becomes "8", 4 of small winning combinations 01, 08, 09, and 10 included in the condition device (small winning combination A1) corresponding to the winning number "8". One winning flag is turned on, and the winning flags of other hands are turned off.

Furthermore, as described above, the winning of the winning combinations other than 1BB is not carried over, so even if the winning combinations of these winning combinations are won and the winning flags of these winning combinations are turned on, that winning combination will be The winning flag is turned off.
On the other hand, the winning of 1BB is carried over, so if 1BB is won in the game this time and the winning flag for the winning 1BB is once turned on, the on state is maintained until that 1BB is won, It will be turned off when 1BB wins.

Further, for example, when the winning number "24" is won by the winning combination lottery means 61, the winning flags corresponding to 1BBA and the small winning combination B (small winning 04-07) are turned on, and as described above, in the game, the small winning It is controlled so that the winning combination 07 is won. Then, at the end of the game, the winning flags of the small wins 04 to 07 are turned off, and the winning flag of 1BBA is kept on.

Furthermore, for example, when the individual lottery means 61 wins 1BBB of the winning number “28” alone, the winning flag of 1BBB is turned on in the current game, and the winning flag of 1BBB is won when 1BBB is not won in the current game. Is kept on.
Furthermore, in the next game (inside), when you win the winning number "8" (small role A1), in addition to the 1BBB that has carried over the winning number, it corresponds to the condition device (small role A1) of the winning number "8". The winning flags of the small winning combinations 01, 08, 09, and 10 are turned on. Then, at the end of the game this time, the winning flags of the small winning combinations 01, 08, 09, and 10 are turned off, and the winning flags of 1BBB are kept on (the small winning combinations 01 or 08 are won in the game).

The pushing order instruction number selecting means 63 selects (determines) a pushing order instruction number (a number corresponding to the correct answer pushing order) based on the lottery result of the winning number by the hand lottery means 61.
The “push order” of the push order instruction number selected here means a push order that is advantageous to the player. For example, when a small group A group is elected, it refers to the pushing order in which a high-rank bell is won. In addition, when replay duplicate wins, it refers to a push order in which the RT is promoted to an advantageous RT or a push order in which the RT is not lowered.

It should be noted that the push-order instruction number selecting means 63 may select the push-order instruction number in any of the advantageous section and the normal section, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, during the advantageous section (AT). Only, the pressing order instruction number may be selected. Alternatively, after the high-ranking bell is won once in the advantageous section, the pushing order instruction number may be selected only during the ART.

Further, the selected pressing order instruction number can be transmitted to the sub control board 80 only during the advantageous section. Therefore, even if the pushing order instruction number is selected by the pushing order instruction number selecting means 63 in the normal section (it may be selected or not in the normal section), the pushing order instruction number is selected. Not sent to 80.
In the present embodiment, each winning number is provided with a unique push order instruction number.

In this embodiment, only when the small role A group is elected during the AT (main gaming state 2 or 16) and the replay E group is elected, and when the replay E group is elected during the omen (main gaming state 1), the pushing order instruction number The selection means 63 selects a push order instruction number.
When the pressing order instruction number is selected by the pressing order instruction number selecting means 63, the main control board 63 informs the pressing order, that is, the instruction function is activated. As a result, the acquisition order display LED 78 displays the pressing order instruction information corresponding to the pressing order instruction number. Since the push order instruction number is transmitted to the sub control board 80, the sub control board 80 notifies the push order based on the received push order instruction number.

As the push order instruction number, for example,
Correct answer push order 123: Push order instruction number "A1 (H)"
Correct push order 132: Push order instruction number "A2 (H)"
Correct push order 213: Push order instruction number "A3 (H)"
Correct push order 231: Push order instruction number "A4 (H)"
Correct answer push order 312: Push order instruction number "A5 (H)"
Correct push order 321: Push order instruction number "A6 (H)"
It is stipulated. Therefore, for example, when the small winning combination A1 is won during AT, the push order instruction number “A1(H)” is transmitted to the sub control board 80. When the sub-control board 80 receives the pressing order instruction number “A1(H)”, the sub-control board 80 notifies the correct pressing order, for example, “left middle right”.

Further, the main control board 50 predefines the relationship between the push order instruction number and the push order instruction information. For example,
Push order instruction number "A1(H)": Push order instruction information "=1"
Push order instruction number “A2(H)”: Push order instruction information “=2”
Push order instruction number “A3(H)”: Push order instruction information “=3”
Push order instruction number "A4(H)": Push order instruction information "=4"
Push order instruction number “A5 (H)”: Push order instruction information “=5”
Push order instruction number "A6(H)": Push order instruction information "=6"
Stipulate.
In this case, when the pushing order instruction number selecting means 63 selects the pushing order instruction number "A1(H)", "=1" is displayed on the acquired number display LED 78 by the operation of the indicating function.

The effect group number selecting means 64 selects an effect group number corresponding to the winning number and is to be transmitted to the sub control board 80.
As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the effect group number corresponding to the winning number is determined. For example, the production group number when winning any of the winning numbers “5” to “7” (replay E group) is “5”. Then, the effect group number selection means 64 selects the effect group number corresponding to the winning number of the game, and the main control board 60 transmits the selected effect group number to the sub control board 80. The sub control board 80 outputs an effect related to the winning combination based on the received effect group number.

Here, it may be considered that the winning number itself determined by the winning combination lottery means 61 is transmitted to the sub control board 80. However, in the present embodiment, the winning number itself is not transmitted to the sub control board 80. As a result, the sub-control board 80 side cannot completely know the winning combination of the game this time.

The reel control means 65 controls to start the rotation of all (three) reels 31 when receiving the rotation start command of the reels 31, particularly when detecting the operation of the start switch 41 in this embodiment. .. Further, after the winning number is determined by the role lottery means 61, the reel control means 65 refers to ON/OFF of the winning flag in this game, and refers to the stop position determination table corresponding to ON/OFF of the winning flag. When the stop switch 42 is operated, the stop position of the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 is determined based on the timing when the operation of the stop switch 42 is detected. The drive is controlled so that the reel 31 is stopped at the determined position.

For example, in the game in which at least one winning flag is on, the reel control means 65 activates the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination (the winning flag is on) in the range of the reel 31 stop control. The reel 31 is stopped and controlled so that it can be stopped on the line, and the reel 31 is stopped and controlled so that symbol combinations corresponding to winning combinations other than winning combinations (winning flags are off) are not stopped on the activated line.

Here, "within the stop control range of the reel 31" means the time from the moment the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 actually stops or the amount of rotation of the reel 31 (number of moving symbols (frames)). Means within the range.
In the present embodiment, the reel 31 is rotated at a speed of about 80 rotations per minute at a constant speed.
When the stop switch 42 is operated, the time from the moment the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 is stopped is set within 190 ms except for the middle reel 31 which is in the 2BB operation. As a result, in the present embodiment, the maximum number of moving symbols from the moment the stop switch 42 is operated to when the reel 31 is stopped is set to 4 except for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation.
On the other hand, for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation, the time from the moment the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 is stopped is set within 75 ms. As a result, in the present embodiment, for the medium reel 31 during 2BB operation, the maximum number of symbols to be moved from the symbol at the moment the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 stops is set to one symbol.

For example, in FIG. 2, when the left stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first "Replay A" of the left reel 31 is located in the lower left stage, the four symbols ahead except the middle reel 31 which is operating 2BB, That is, the symbols up to No. 5 "Red 7" can be stopped in the lower left stage. Therefore, at the above operation timing, the symbols No. 1 (bitter stop) to No. 5 (4 symbol slip) are symbols that can be stopped in the lower left stage.
In the following description, "bita (stop)" means to stop the symbol on the activated line when the stop switch 42 is operated immediately before the symbol passes the activated line (at the moment when the symbol passes). Refers to.
On the other hand, for the middle reel 31 in operation of 2BB, when the middle stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first "bell" of the middle reel 31 is located in the middle middle stage, the first symbol, that is, the second "Replay A" is a pattern that can be stopped in the middle and middle stages. Therefore, at the above operation timing, the symbols No. 1 (bitter stop) to No. 2 (1 symbol slip) are symbols that can be stopped in the middle and middle stages.

However, not limited to the above, except for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation, from the next symbol of the symbol located on the activated line at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated, set the maximum number of symbols to be moved to 4 symbols. Is also possible. In this case, for example, when the left stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first "Replay A" of the left reel 31 is located in the lower left stage, from the next symbol, that is, the second "bell" , 4 symbols ahead of the symbol "Replay A", which is the symbol, is a symbol that can be stopped in the lower left stage. Therefore, at the above operation timing, the symbols Nos. 2 to 6 can be stopped at the lower left stage.
Similarly, for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation, it is also possible to set the maximum number of moving symbols to 1 from the symbol next to the symbol located on the activated line at the moment the stop switch 42 is operated. .. In this case, for example, when the middle stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first "bell" of the middle reel 31 is located in the middle middle stage, from the next symbol, that is, the second "Replay A". , That one symbol ahead of the number 3 "Watermelon A" is a symbol that can be stopped in the middle and middle stages. Therefore, at the above operation timing, the symbols Nos. 2 to 3 can be stopped in the middle and middle stages.

In the following description, except for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation, the maximum number of moving symbols from the symbols positioned on the activated line at the moment the stop switch 42 is operated is four symbols. Further, for the middle reel 31 during 2BB operation, the maximum number of moving symbols will be described as one symbol from the symbols located on the activated line at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated.

First, at the moment when the operation of the stop switch 42 is detected, when any of the symbols within the stop control range of the reel 31 is a symbol to be stopped on a predetermined effective line, when the stop switch 42 is operated In addition, the design is controlled so as to stop at a predetermined effective line.

That is, when the reel 31 is immediately stopped at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated, when the symbol related to the winning combination does not stop on a predetermined effective line, the stop control of the reel 31 is stopped before the reel 31 is stopped. By controlling the rotational movement of the reel 31 within the range, the symbols related to the winning combination are controlled to be stopped on a predetermined effective line as much as possible (pull-in stop control).

On the contrary, when the reel 31 is immediately stopped at the moment the stop switch 42 is operated, when the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped on the activated line, the reel 31 is stopped when the reel 31 is stopped. By controlling the rotational movement of the reel 31 within the range of the stop control, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination that is not won is controlled not to be stopped on the activated line (kicking stop control).
Furthermore, in the game in which a plurality of winning combinations are won, the priority order of the winning combination is predetermined according to the winning combination, the pressing order of the stop switch 42, and the operation timing of the stop switch 42. Thus, the pull-in stop control of the symbol having the highest priority is performed.

Further, the reel control means 65 detects the pressing order (operation order) of the stop switch 42. The reel control means 65 detects which of the left, middle, and right stop switches 42 is operated when the player operates the stop switch 42.
When the stop switch 42 is operated, a signal indicating that the stop switch 42 has been operated is input to the reel control means 65. By discriminating this signal, the reel control means 65 detects which stop switch 42 has been operated. Then, the stop control of the reel 31 corresponding to the operated stop switch 42 is executed.

Further, the reel control means 65 includes a stop position determination table for each winning number (for each condition device). The stop position determination table defines the stop position of the reel 31 with respect to the position of the reel 31 at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated. Then, in each stop position determination table, for example, when the stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first symbol (“Replay A” for the left reel 31) passes through the lower left stage, only a symbol movement control is performed. Then (the number of symbols slip), the number of the symbol is stopped in the lower left stage, and the stop position is predetermined.
As described above, the winning position (condition device), the pressing order, and the operation timing of the stop switch 42 predetermine the symbols to be stopped on the effective line by the stop position determination table.

Here, as the stop control of the reels 31 when the winning numbers that have been won result in multiple wins of a plurality of small winning combinations, the following methods can be mentioned.
As a first priority, when it is possible to stop all of the symbols (of the reel 31) constituting the winning symbol combination on the activated line, the reel 31 is stopped at that position.

Next, when it is not possible to "stop all of the symbols constituting the winning symbol combination on the activated line" (when the first priority cannot be adopted), the second priority is "number of sheets priority". Alternatively, the reel 31 is stopped and controlled by either "number priority".
Here, the "number-of-sheets priority" means that, among the symbol combinations that have been won in duplicate, the symbols of the reels 31 that make up the symbol combination with the largest payout number are prioritized and stopped (pulled in) on the activated line. .. Therefore, at the time of winning the small winning combination A group, the small winning combination 01 corresponds to the symbol combination with the largest payout number (11).
On the other hand, “number priority” means stopping the symbols on the reel 31 on the effective line so that the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped on the effective line is the largest.

For example, when the small winning combination A1 is won and the middle first stop is selected, it is not possible to stop all of the middle reels 31 related to the winning combination on the activated line at the same time. This is because, while there are a plurality of types of symbols on the medium reel 31 of the winning small winning combination, only one type of symbol can be stopped on the activated line since there is only one activated line.

Therefore, when the small winning combination A group is won, the reels 31 are stop-controlled by either the number priority or the number priority. In the present embodiment, when the small winning combination A group is won, the reels are stopped and controlled by the number of sheets prior to the correct pressing order, and the reels 31 are stopped and controlled by the number of priorities when the wrong pressing order is answered. When the reels are stopped and controlled by the number of pieces priority, the small winning combination 01 (11 winning combinations) can be won without winning the small winning combination 01 (11 winning combinations).

In the above example, for example, when the small winning combination A1 is won, the small winning combinations 01, 08, 09, and 10 are won, so the winning symbol combinations are:
Small Role 01: "Blue 7"-"Replay A"-"Bell"
Small Role 01: "Watermelon A"-"Replay A"-"Bell"
Small Role 08: "Blue 7"-"Bell"-"Replay B"
Small Role 08: "Blue 7"-"Bell"-"Watermelon A"
Small Role 08: "Watermelon A"-"Bell"-"Replay B"
Small Role 08: "Watermelon A"-"Bell"-"Watermelon A"
Small role 09: "Blue 7"-"Bell"-"Blank"
Small role 09: "Watermelon A"-"Bell"-"Blank"
Small role 10: "Blue 7"-"Red 7"-"Replay B"
Small role 10: "Blue 7"-"Red 7"-"Watermelon A"
Small role 10: "Blue 7"-"Blue 7"-"Replay B"
Small role 10: "Blue 7"-"Blue 7"-"Watermelon A"
Small role 10: "Watermelon A"-"Red 7"-"Replay B"
Small role 10: "Watermelon A"-"Red 7"-"Watermelon A"
Small role 10: "Watermelon A"-"Blue 7"-"Replay B"
Small role 10: "Watermelon A"-"Blue 7"-"Watermelon A"
Is.

Here, the number of symbols of the middle reel 31 is
Replay A: 2 Bell: 6 Red 7:4 Blue 7:4.
Therefore, when you win the small win A1 and give priority to the number when the first stop in the middle (when the pushing order is incorrect), you can stop the "bell" on the active line by stopping it on the active line. The number is 6 and the maximum. Therefore, when the number priority is executed at the time of the first stop in the middle, the "bell" is stopped at the effective line when the middle reel 31 is stopped.
Next, when the left reel 31 is stopped as the second stop, if "blue 7" or "watermelon A" is stopped, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped becomes the maximum number. Therefore, "Blue 7" or "Watermelon A" is stopped when the left reel is stopped. In the left reel 31, “blue 7” and “watermelon A” are “PB=1” in total. Furthermore, when the right reel 31 is stopped, “Replay B” or “Watermelon A” is stopped. In the right reel 31, “Replay B” and “Watermelon A” are “PB=1” in total. As a result, during the first stop of the small win A1 winning, the small win 08 wins.

Also, when winning the small role A1 and prioritizing the number at the first stop on the right (when the pushing order is incorrect), if you stop "Replay B" or "Watermelon A" on the active line, it becomes an active line. The number of symbol combinations that can be stopped is 6 and is the maximum. Therefore, in this case, when the right reel 31 is stopped, "Replay B" or "Watermelon A" is stopped on the activated line.

Next, when the left reel 31 is stopped as the second stop, if "blue 7" or "watermelon A" is stopped, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped becomes the maximum number. Therefore, "Blue 7" or "Watermelon A" is stopped when the left reel is stopped. Furthermore, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the "bell" is stopped. As a result, at the time of the first stop on the right when the small role A1 is won, the small role 08 is won.

On the other hand, at the time of the small winning combination A1 winning, when the left first stop, the pressing order is correct at this point, so the left reel 31 is a symbol relating to the small winning combination 01 by the priority of the number of sheets, "blue 7" or Stop "Watermelon A". Then, in the case of the middle second stop, the pressing order correct answer is determined at this point, so the number of sheets is prioritized even after the second stop and the small win 01 is won.

On the other hand, when the right second stop is performed after the left first stop, the incorrect pressing order is determined at this point, so the number of pieces of priority is switched to the priority. Therefore, if the "replay B" or the "watermelon A" is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped becomes the maximum number. Therefore, when the right reel is stopped, “Replay B” or “Watermelon A” is stopped. Further, the "bell" is stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. As a result, when the pushing order at the time of winning the small role A1 is right and left, the small role 08 is won.
As for the small winning combinations A2 to A6, similarly to the above, the reels 31 are stop-controlled by the priority of the number when the correct answer is in the pressing order and the priority of the number when the incorrect answer is in the pressing order.

On the other hand, the winning numbers “14” (small winning combination B (common bell)) to “16” (small winning combination D (weak cherry)) are all three winning combinations of small winning combinations, and the numbers of payouts are the same. There will be no number priority or number priority as the winning combination will be won. As described above, when the winning number "14" (small winning combination B) is won, the symbol combination of the small winning combination 07 is stopped on the activated line. When the winning number “15” (small winning combination C) is won, the small winning combination 14 is controlled to be won. Furthermore, when the winning number "16" (small winning combination D) is won, the small winning combination 13 is controlled to be won.

The winning number "17" (small winning part E (watermelon A)) and the winning number "18" (small winning part F (watermelon B)) are duplicate wins of 8 small wins, and the payout number is the same. There will be no number priority or number priority as the winning combination will be won. As described above, when the winning number "17" (small winning combination E) is won, the small winning combination 15 is stopped on the activated line. When the winning number “18” (small winning combination F) is won, the small winning combination 16 or small winning combination 17 is stopped on the activated line.

The winning number "19" is a duplicate winning of three small wins, and there is no winning of the number of coins or the number of coins because the winning combination of the small payouts is the same. In the present embodiment, the small winning combination 08 is controlled to win as described above.
The winning number "20" is a winning combination of all small winning combinations, that is, small winning combinations 01 to 17, and in the present embodiment, the reels 31 are stopped and controlled by priority of the number regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42. In the present embodiment, the small winning combination 01 is controlled to be won. As described above, it is possible to win one of the small winning combinations 01 to 03 in accordance with the order of pressing the stop switch 42.
The winning number "22" is an overlapping win among 11 small winning combinations, and there is no winning of the number or the number of priority because it is a winning of the winning combinations having the same payout number. In the present embodiment, as described above, the small winning combination 06 is controlled to be won.

Next, the stop control of the reel 31 during the 2BB operation will be described.
During 2BB operation, the maximum number of symbols to be transferred is 4 for the left and right reels 31, and the maximum number of symbols to be moved is 1 for the middle reel 31.
While the 2BB is operating, the lottery of the winning numbers shown in FIG. 18 is executed, but when the Replay C is winning, the reel stop control when the condition device of the Replay C is operating is executed. Similarly, during the operation of Replay D, the reel stop control during the operation of the condition device of Replay D is executed.
In addition, when a winning combination is not won, when one of the small winning roles is winning, and when the SB is winning, the winning flag of the winning ALL is set, and a predetermined small winning role (higher winning role or lower winning role) is pushed according to the pressing order. Is controlled to win.

FIG. 51(a) is a diagram (partially excerpted from FIG. 6) showing a small winning combination that can be won in a winning ALL state during 2BB operation, and FIG. 51(b) is a winning ALL during 2BB operation. Under the circumstances, it is a diagram showing the relationship between the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the winning rate (winning rate, winning rate) of the small winning combination. In FIG. 51(a), the specified number and the game state during 2BB operation correspond to "2 sheets (4)". Therefore, the number of payouts at the time of winning the small prizes 01 to 04 is 13, and the number of payout at the time of winning the small prizes 05 to 06 is 12. Therefore, a small winning combination that pays out 13 coins is a high winning small prize, and a winning prize that pays out 12 coins is a small winning prize. In the present embodiment, under the condition of winning ALL during 2BB operation, small wins other than the small wins shown in FIG. 51A, for example, small wins 08 to 11 in FIGS. There is no case to win inside.
In the present embodiment, there is no case where a winning combination is lost (a winning combination is a non-winning prize) under the condition of winning ALL during 2BB operation. However, in a third embodiment to be described later, there is a case where the winning combination is missed under the condition of winning ALL during the 2BB operation.

Furthermore, in FIG. 51( b ), the displayed number indicates “street”.
Here, in the present embodiment, the number of symbols on the reel 31 is 20, and the number of reels 31 is 3. Therefore, all the stop patterns are 8000 in the cube of “20”. Then, for example, when the pressing order is "123", there are "7600" patterns in which the small winning combination 02 (role number "047") stops. In other words, the winning percentage of the small role 02 (role number “047”) when the pushing order is “123” is “7600/8000”.

In FIG. 51B, the reel stop order is "1" on the left, "2" on the middle, and "3" on the right. Therefore, for example, “231” indicates the middle right, left and right pressing order.
1.2 When the left first stop under the condition of winning ALL during BB operation Under the condition of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, at the time of the first left stop, "Blank" of 0 is pressed to the upper left (effective line). When it is done, the "blank" of No. 0 is stopped on the effective line. When the left stop switch 42 is operated at any other position, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line.
Therefore, the proportion of symbols that stop on the activated line at the first stop on the left is:
Bell: 19/20
Blank: 1/20
Becomes

Here, the symbol of the left reel 31 of the winning combination numbers “047” to “051”, which is the higher winning combination, is “bell”. Similarly, the symbol of the left reel 31 of the winning combination numbers “052” to “054” which is the higher winning combination is “blank”. Therefore, if the "bell" or "blank" is stopped on the effective line when the left reel 31 is stopped, it means that the symbols related to the high-order small winning combination are stopped on the effective line, and the number-of-sheets priority control is performed.

For the right reel 31 after the first stop on the left, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line (20/20).
Regarding the middle reel 31 after the first stop on the left side, when the "bell" is pressed on the activated line, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line (middle/middle stage). When the middle stop switch 42 is operated at any other position, the "watermelon A", "watermelon B", or "cherry" is stopped. When the “watermelon A” and the “watermelon B” compete with each other when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the stop of the “watermelon B” is prioritized. Specifically, when No. 14 “watermelon A” is pressed on the activated line, No. 15 “watermelon B” is stopped on the activated line.

From the above, after the left first stop, the stop symbol on the activated line when the middle reel 31 is stopped,
1st bit: Bell (1st)
2nd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
3rd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
4th bit: Cherry (5th)
5th bitter: Cherry (5th)
6th bit: Bell (6th)
No. 7 bitter: Watermelon A (No. 8)
8th bitter: Watermelon A (8th)
9th bit: Cherry (10th)
10th bit: Cherry (10th)
11th Vita: Bell (11th)
12th bitter: Watermelon A (13th)
13th Vita: Watermelon A (13th)
14th bitter: Watermelon B (15th)
15th bitter: Watermelon B (15th)
16th Vita: Bell (16th)
17th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
18th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
19th Vita: Cherry (0th)
No. 0 bitter: Cherry (No. 0)
Becomes

Therefore, when the middle reel 31 is stopped, the proportion of symbols stopped on the activated line is
Bell: 4/20
Watermelon A: 8/20
Watermelon B: 2/20
Cherry: 6/20
Becomes

Therefore, the rate at which "bell"-"ANY"-"bell" (small win 02 with the role number "047") is stopped is:
"19/20" (left) x "20/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=7600/8000
Becomes
In addition, the ratio of "Blank"-"Watermelon A"-"Bell" (small win 04 with winning number "052") is:
"1/20" (left) x "8/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=160/8000
Becomes

Furthermore, the ratio of "Blank"-"Watermelon B"-"Bell" (small win 04 with the winning number "053") is
"1/20" (left) x "2/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=40/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, the ratio at which "blank"-"cherry"-"bell" (small win 04 with the role number "054") is stopped is:
"1/20" (left) x "6/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=120/8000
Becomes
In addition, the ratio at which "blank"-"cherry"-"bell" (small role 05 with the role number "055") is stopped is:
"1/20" (left) x "4/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=80/8000
Becomes

Therefore, the winning rate of the small winning combination is “7920/8000”, and the winning rate of the small winning combination is “80/8000”.
The above applies both when the pressing order is 123 (left center right) and 132 (left right center).

2.2 Right First Stop During Winning ALL During 2BB Operation Next, reel stop control at the first right stop under the situation of winning ALL during 2BB operation will be described.
When the right reel 31 is stopped, when the 14th "watermelon A" is pushed to the lower right stage (the 13th "blank" is below the frame), this "watermelon A" is stopped to the lower right stage. When "Replay B" of No. 9 is pressed to the lower right (the "White 7" of No. 8 is below the frame), this "Replay B" is stopped at the lower right. When the right stop switch 42 is operated at any other position, the "bell" is stopped.

Therefore, the ratio of the symbols stopped on the effective line of the right reel 31 at the time of the first right stop,
Bell: 18/20
Watermelon A: 1/20
Replay B: 1/20
Becomes
For the left reel 31 after the first stop on the right side, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line (20/20).
Further, for the middle reel 31 after the first stop on the right side, when the middle stop switch 42 is operated at a position where "Watermelon A" or "Bell" can be stopped on the effective line, "Watermelon A" or "Bell", respectively. Is stopped on the effective line, and when "Watermelon A" or "Bell" cannot be stopped on the effective line, "Cherry" or "Watermelon B" is stopped on the effective line.

From the above, after the first stop on the right, the stop symbol on the activated line when the middle reel 31 is stopped,
1st bit: Bell (1st)
2nd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
3rd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
4th bit: Cherry (5th)
5th bitter: Cherry (5th)
6th bit: Bell (6th)
No. 7 bitter: Watermelon A (No. 8)
8th bitter: Watermelon A (8th)
9th bit: Cherry (10th)
10th bit: Cherry (10th)
11th Vita: Bell (11th)
12th bitter: Watermelon A (13th)
13th Vita: Watermelon A (13th)
14th bitter: Watermelon B (15th)
15th bitter: Watermelon B (15th)
16th Vita: Bell (16th)
17th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
18th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
19th Vita: Cherry (0th)
No. 0 bitter: Cherry (No. 0)
Becomes
That is, the percentage of symbols that stop on the activated line is
Bell: 4/20
Watermelon A: 8/20
Watermelon B: 2/20
Cherry: 6/20
Becomes

Therefore, the rate at which "bell"-"ANY"-"bell" (small win 02 with the role number "047") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "20/20" (middle) x "18/20" (right)
=7200/8000
Becomes
In addition, the rate at which "bell"-"watermelon B"-"replay B" (small win 03 with the role number "048") is stopped is
"20/20" (left) x "2/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=40/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"watermelon B"-"watermelon A" (small win 03 with role number "049") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "2/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=40/8000
Becomes

Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"cherry"-"replay B" (small win 03 with role number "050") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "6/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=120/8000
Becomes
In addition, the ratio of "bell"-"cherry"-"watermelon A" (small win 03 with the role number "051") is:
"20/20" (left) x "6/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=120/8000
Becomes
The above is equivalent to the winning rate of the higher eye winning combination.

Furthermore, the winning rate of Yasume Kogaku is as follows.
The ratio of "bell"-"bell"-"replay B" (small role 06 with the role number "056") is:
"20/20" (left) x "4/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=80/8000
Becomes
In addition, the ratio of "bell"-"bell"-"watermelon A" (small winning combination 06 with the winning number "057") is:
"20/20" (left) x "4/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=80/8000
Becomes

Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"watermelon A"-"replay B" (small role 06 with the role number "058") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "8/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=160/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"watermelon A"-"watermelon A" (small winning combination 06 with the winning number "059") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "8/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=160/8000

From the above, the winning rate of the small winning combination is "7520/8000", and the winning rate of the small winning combination is "480/8000".
The above is the same when the pressing order is 312 (middle right, left) and 321 (middle left, right).

3.2 At the time of "213" (middle left and right) under the situation of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB Next, in the state of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, the reel stop control when the pushing order is "213" (middle left and right) will be explained. To do.
When the 1st “bell” is pressed to the middle line of the active line (19th “white 7” under the frame) at the first stop, the 1st “bell” is stopped at the middle line. Let Then, the "bell" is stopped on the effective line at the first stop of the middle only when the bitter is pressed at this one position.
Further, when the middle stop switch 42 is operated so that "Replay A" can be stopped on the activated line, "Replay A" is stopped on the activated line. Next, when "Replay A" cannot be stopped on the effective line, either "Cherry", "Watermelon A", or "Watermelon B" is stopped on the effective line.

Therefore, the stop position of the middle reel 31 at the time of the first middle stop is as follows.
1st bit: Bell (1st)
2nd Vita: Replay A (23rd)
3rd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
4th bit: Cherry (5th)
5th bitter: Cherry (5th)
6th bit: Replay A (7th)
7th bit: Replay A (8th)
8th bitter: Watermelon A (8th)
9th bit: Cherry (10th)
10th bit: Cherry (10th)
11th Vita: Replay A (12th)
12th Vita: Replay A (12th)
13th Vita: Watermelon A (13th)
14th bitter: Watermelon B (15th)
15th bitter: Watermelon B (15th)
16th Vita: Replay A (17th)
17th Bit: Replay A (17th)
18th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
19th Vita: Cherry (0th)
No. 0 bitter: Cherry (No. 0)
Becomes
That is, at the time of the first stop in the middle, the proportion of the symbols that stop on the activated line,
Bell: 1/20
Replay A: 7/20
Watermelon A: 4/20
Watermelon B: 2/20
Cherry: 6/20
Becomes

Next, at the second left stop, when the "bell" is stopped at the first middle stop, the left reel 31 is stop-controlled by using the number priority.
When the "bell" is stopped at the first stop in the middle and the "bell" is stopped at the second stop at the left, "bell"-"bell"-"rotating", but "bell"-"bell" -The symbol combinations that become "ANY" are three winning combination numbers "056", "057", and "088" (see FIG. 7).
On the other hand, when the "bell" is stopped at the first stop in the middle and the "blank" is stopped at the second stop at the left, the symbol combination of "blank"-"bell"-"ANY" is a winning combination number. There are four numbers “055”, “077”, “078”, and “087” (see FIG. 7). Therefore, for the left reel 31, when the "blank" is stopped on the activated line, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped on the activated line is the largest, so that the "blank" can be stopped by prioritizing the number. Sometimes the blank is stopped, and when the "blank" cannot be stopped, the "bell" is stopped.

In the present embodiment, when the "bell" is stopped during the first stop, the "blank" is stopped on the active line when the 0th "blank" of the left reel 31 is pressed on the active line. Otherwise, stop the "bell".
Therefore, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the proportion of the symbols stopped on the effective line is
Bell: 19/20
Blank: 1/20
Becomes

As described above, when "bell"-"bell"-"rotating" or "blank"-"bell"-"rotating", the "bell" is stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. Let
Therefore,
The ratio of "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (small win 02 with the role number "047") is
"19/20" (left) x "1/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=380/8000
Becomes
In addition, the ratio of "Blank"-"Bell"-"Bell" (small winning combination 05 with the winning number "055") is:
"1/20" (left) x "1/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=20/8000
Becomes

Next, in the case where "Replay A" is stopped at the middle first stop, "Blue 7" or "Watermelon A" is stopped on the activated line when the left reel 31 is stopped.
Therefore, when the left reel 31 is stopped, the proportion of the symbols stopped on the effective line is
Blue 7:5/20
Watermelon A: 15/20
Becomes
Further, when the right reel 31 is stopped, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line.

From the above,
The ratio of "Blue 7"-"Replay A"-"Bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "045") is
"5/20" (left) x "7/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=700/8000
Becomes
In addition, the rate at which "Watermelon A"-"Replay A"-"Bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "046") is stopped is:
"15/20" (left) x "7/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=2100/8000
Becomes

When "watermelon A", "watermelon B", or "cherry" is stopped during the first stop, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line when the left reel 31 is stopped, and the right reel 31 is stopped. Also stop the "bell" on the active line.
Therefore, the rate at which "bell"-"watermelon A/watermelon B/cherry"-"bell" (small win 02 with the role number "047") is
"20/20" (left) x "12/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=4800/8000
Becomes
In addition, as described above, the proportion of the "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (small win 02 with the winning number "047") stopped is "380/8000", so that with the winning number "047". The total value of the percentage at which the small role 02 stops is
"4800/8000" + "380/8000"
=5180/8000
Becomes

4.2 At the time of "231" (middle right left) under the situation of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB Next, under the situation of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, the reel stop control when the pushing order is "231" (middle right left) explain.
The stop control at the time of the first stop in the middle is the same as that at the time of the pushing order “213” described above. That is, the ratio of the symbols on the active line at the time of the first stop in the middle,
Bell: 1/20
Replay A: 7/20
Watermelon A: 4/20
Watermelon B: 2/20
Cherry: 6/20
Becomes

When the "bell" stops on the activated line during the first stop, the 9th "Replay B" is pressed to the lower right during the 2nd stop on the right, and the 9th "Replay B" is moved to the right. Stop at the bottom. When the 14th "watermelon A" is pressed to the lower right stage, the 14th "watermelon A" is stopped at the lower right stage. When the right stop switch 42 is operated at any other position, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line.
That is, in this case, the ratio of the symbols on the activated line when the right reel 31 is stopped is
Replay B: 1/20
Watermelon A: 1/20
Bell: 18/20
Becomes
In the above case, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line at the third stop on the left.
Therefore, the ratio of "bell"-"bell"-"replay B" (small winning combination 06 with the winning number "056") is:
"20/20" (left) x "1/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=20/8000
Becomes
Similarly, the ratio of "bell"-"bell"-"watermelon A" (small winning combination 06 with the winning number "057") is:
"20/20" (left) x "1/20" (middle) x "1/20" (right)
=20/8000
Becomes

In addition, the ratio at which "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (small win 02 with the role number "047") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "1/20" (middle) x "18/20" (right)
=360/8000
Becomes

On the other hand, when the "replay A" is stopped at the middle first stop, the "bell" is stopped at the activated line at the right second stop. Furthermore, at the time of the third stop on the left, "Blue 7" or "Watermelon A" is stopped on the activated line. In this case, the ratio of the symbols on the effective line is "blue 7", and the ratio of "watermelon A" stopping on the effective line is the same as above.
Blue 7:5/20
Watermelon A: 15/20
Becomes
Therefore, the ratio of "Blue 7"-"Replay A"-"Bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "045") is:
"5/20" (left) x "7/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=700/8000
Becomes
Similarly, the rate at which "Watermelon A"-"Replay A"-"Bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "046") is stopped is:
"15/20" (left) x "7/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=2100/8000
Becomes

In addition, at the time of the first stop in the middle, the rate at which other than “bell” or “replay A” (“watermelon A”, “watermelon B”, or “cherry”) is stopped is “12/20”.
In this case, the "bell" is stopped on the effective line at the second stop on the right, and the "bell" is stopped on the effective line at the third stop on the left.
Therefore, the rate at which "bell"-"ANY (watermelon A/watermelon B/cherry)"-"bell" (small win 02 with the role number "047") is stopped is:
"20/20" (left) x "12/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=4800/8000
Becomes
Further, as described above, the ratio of "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (small win 02 with the winning number "047") stopped is "360/8000", so that with the winning number "047". The total value of the percentage at which the small role 02 stops is
"4800/8000" + "360/8000"
=5160/8000
Becomes

As described above, at the time of winning ALL during the 2BB operation, the type of winning small prize and the winning rate differ depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42. Assuming that no push is performed, as shown in FIG. 51(b), when the pushing order is "213" (middle left and right), the higher small winning combination (13 pieces) has the highest winning percentage. Is "7980/8000".
On the other hand, the highest win rate for the small eye winning combination is the lowest at the first stop on the right, and the rate is "7520/8000".
Therefore, during the operation of 2BB, it is most advantageous for the player to digest the game in the middle, left and right pushing order (except when the player presses the eyes).
Further, during the operation of 2BB, even if the player presses in the right, middle, and left directions, it is possible to win the high-ranking small winning combination at a rate of “7960/8000”.
Therefore, as a whole, when the middle reel 31 (the reel whose maximum number of moving symbols is stop-controlled by one symbol) is set as the first stop reel, the higher winning combination is won than the other reels 31 are set as the first stop reel. Easier to do.

Further, during the operation of the 2BB, when the condition device of the replay C is operating, the replay 05 is controlled to win. As shown in FIG. 5, the symbol combination of Replay 05 is "bell"-"-"-"red 7/white 7/blue 7/blank", and both the left and right reels 31 have "PB=1". It is. Further, the symbol of the middle reel 31 in which the stop control of 75 ms is executed is arbitrary. Therefore, when the condition device of Replay C is activated, Replay 05 can be always won.
During the operation of the 2BB, even when the condition device of the replay D is operated, the replay 05 is controlled to win as in the above case.

The description returns to FIG.
The winning determination means 66 is for determining whether or not the symbol combination of the reel 31 stopped on the activated line is a symbol combination corresponding to any winning combination when the reel 31 is stopped.
Here, the winning determination unit 66 does not actually detect whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination has stopped on the activated line.
Specifically, based on the condition device operated in the game, the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and/or the operation timing of the stop switch 42, a symbol combination to be stopped on the effective line before the reel 31 is actually stopped is previously set. It is determined or the symbol combination stopped on the activated line after the reel 31 is stopped is determined in advance.

For example, when the correct answer for the small win A1 wins, the small win 01 wins with "PB=1". Therefore, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the order of left middle right, on the activated line actually stopped. It is determined that the small winning combination 01 has won, without determining the symbol combination.
Further, under the situation of the winning ALL during the 2BB game described above, if the pressing order of the stop switch 42 and the operation timing of the stop switch 42 are detected, the symbol combination on the activated line actually stopped is not determined. , It is possible to determine which small role won the prize.

The payout means 67 pays out a predetermined number of medals to the player according to the winning combination when the winning determination means 66 determines that the winning combination is a prize, or performs processing such as addition of credits. It is a thing. In addition, at the time of winning the replay, the number of medals inserted in the game this time is automatically inserted without paying out the medals.

The RT control means 68 determines whether or not the RT transition condition is satisfied at the time of stopping all the games and all reels 31, and when it determines that the RT transition condition is satisfied, controls to perform the RT transition. It is a thing.
As described above, the RT of the present embodiment includes the non-RT (RT0), RT1 to RT3, 1BBA to 1BBC operation (RBA operation, RBB operation), and 2BBA to 2BBC operation. As shown in FIGS. 11 to 18, the types and numbers of winning numbers and the winning probabilities are different for each RT. There is no RT corresponding to the SB operation, but when the SB operation symbol is displayed in the non-RT or RT2 (at the time of SB winning), the process shifts to RT1.

In the present embodiment, the RT transition timing is set at the time of stop display of the symbol combination or at the time of winning the RT transition combination, that is, at the time of all stop (when all reels 31 are stopped).
However, the transition from non-RT, RT1, RT2 to RT3 may be performed based on the winning of 1BB, or based on the fact that 1BB did not win in the game winning 1BB. Good. In the present embodiment, 1BB is won, and if the winning 1BB does not win, the process proceeds to RT3.
The non-inside game is equivalent to non-RT, RT1 and RT2. In addition, the internal medium game corresponds to RT3.

FIG. 19 is a diagram showing an RT transition diagram of this embodiment.
When the RWM 53 is initialized, the game is started from non-RT. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and even when the RWM 53 is initialized, the RT before the initialization (before the power is turned off) may be maintained. For example, when the RWM 53 is initialized while the winning of 1BB is carried over, the winning of 1BB is also maintained (carried over), and it may be started from RT3.
In the non-RT, when the SB operation symbol is displayed (at the time of SB winning), the game shifts from the next game to RT1. The same applies when the SB operation pattern is displayed at RT2. Also, at RT1, when the 333 game is digested, it shifts to non-RT. Furthermore, when the replay 04 wins at RT2, the process moves to RT1.

Here, the AT of the present embodiment is executed in RT2 in principle, but during AT, the winning numbers "5" to "7" (replay E group) are notified of the push order in which the replay 02 is won. Replay 04 will never win. If the push order for winning the replay 02 is not notified in the game in which the AT ends at RT2 and the winning numbers “5” to “7” are won, the replay 04 wins with a probability of “2/3”. This causes the transition from RT2 to RT1 (fall of RT). It should be noted that, in a game in which the winning numbers “5” to “7” are won during AT, even when the replay 04 wins due to a mistake in the pushing order, the process shifts from RT2 to RT1. In this case, even an AT does not have a high replay probability. In the present embodiment, when the player falls to RT1, there is no case where the player can return to RT2 unless he wins 1BB or 2BB.

In the non-RT, RT1, RT2 non-internal medium game, if 1BB is won and 1BB is not won, the RT control means 68 determines that the RT transition condition is satisfied, and is set to RT3 corresponding to the internal medium game. Transition.

Further, when 1BB is won in the game that is won to 1BB, the operation of 1BB is started at the time of the full stop of the game this time, and in this case, RT3 (internal middle game) is not passed.
On the other hand, in the non-RT or RT2, when the SB is won and the SB wins, the process shifts to RT1. Then, the SB game is executed at RT1. After the SB game is over, it remains at RT1.
Further, the symbol combination of SB is “PB≠1” as shown in FIG. Therefore, when the SB is not won in the game won by the SB, there is no RT transition.

When the player wins 1BB and moves to RT3, the RT3 is continued until the winning 1BB wins. When the RT control means 68 determines that 1BB has won in RT3, it determines that the RT transition condition is satisfied, and shifts to 1BBA operation (RBA operation) or 1BBB or 1BBC operation (RBB operation).
When 1BBA is in operation, the operation is continued until the operation end condition of 1BBA (end condition of 1BBA game) is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the operation end condition of 1BBA is set to payout of medals exceeding 264, as shown in FIG. 8(2).
During the operation of 1BBA, the RBA is continuously operated as described above. The RBA ends when either one of the two winnings in the winning combination or the two games is satisfied, and after that, the RBA is operated again on condition that the ending condition of the 1BBA operation is not satisfied.

The RT control means 68 determines whether or not more than 264 medals have been paid out during each game and 1BBA operation, and when it is determined that more than 264 medals have been paid out, the 1BBA operation end condition is determined. When it is determined that the condition is satisfied, the next game is controlled to shift to the non-RT. As shown in FIG. 11, the non-RT of the present embodiment is an RT having a high replay winning probability as in the case of RT2. In this embodiment, when 1BBA is won during the non-advantageous section (normal section), the section does not shift to the advantageous section (AT) even after the end of the 1BBA game. Therefore, it is possible to wait for the winning of 1BB or 2BB without reducing the medals by shifting to the RT having a high replay winning probability, though not shifting to the advantageous section (AT).
Also, if the SB wins during the non-RT, the non-RT shifts to RT1. For this reason, when the SB is won during the non-RT, for example, a “!” mark is displayed on the image display device 23 to indicate that the SB has been won and that the winning of the SB should be avoided. Output production. This is the same during AT and RT2.

Further, the termination condition of the 1BBB or 1BBC operation is set to payout of medals exceeding 242 as shown in FIG. 8(2).
During the operation of 1BBB and 1BBC, the RBB is continuously operated as described above. Like the RBA, the RBB ends when either one of the two winnings or the two games is satisfied, and after that, the RBB is again reconditioned on the condition that the ending condition of the 1BBB or 1BBC operation is not satisfied. Operate.
The RT control means 68 judges whether or not there are payouts of more than 242 medals in each game during the operation of 1BBB or 1BBC, and when it is judged that there have been payouts of more than 242 medals, 1BBB or 1BBC It is determined that the operation end condition is satisfied, and control is performed to shift to RT2 from the next game.

Furthermore, when the 2BB operation symbol is displayed in non-RT, RT1 or RT2 (at the time of winning 2BB), the operation shifts to 2BB (2BBA, 2BBB, 2BBC) operation. In the present embodiment, the termination condition of the 2BB operation is set to payout of more than one medal or SB operation (here, it means “SB winning”), as shown in FIG. 8B. There is. When the operation end condition of 2BB is satisfied, the process proceeds to RT2.

In FIG. 1, the main game state control means 69 executes processing (start time processing) according to the main game state described later at the start of the game, and also performs processing according to the main game state described later (all) at the end of the game. (Stop processing) is executed, and when the main game state transition condition is satisfied, the main game state is transitioned. The main gaming state control means 69 also controls the start and end of the advantageous section and the start and end of the AT.

FIG. 20 is a diagram showing the transition of the main game state.
The main game state of the present embodiment includes main game states 0, 1, and 2, main game states 12, 13, 14, and 15, and a main game state 16. In the actual game machine corresponding to the present embodiment, all of the main game states 0 to 16 are provided, but in the present embodiment, the main game states 3 to 11 are omitted for simplification of description. ..
Further, as the advantageous section types, the advantageous section type 0 (non-advantageous section (normal section)), the advantageous section type 1 (standby section), the advantageous section type 2 (advantageous section), the advantageous section type 3 (advantageous section and 1BB inside) ) Is provided.

The main game state 0 is one of the advantageous zone types 0, 1, or 2.
The main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 is a so-called normal zone in which no special combination or advantageous zone is won.
The main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 1 (standby zone) is the game state when the player wins 1BB or 2BB in the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 and is in the inside of 1BB or 2BB.
Further, the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 2 are, in the present embodiment, the main game state corresponding to the 2BB game, in other words, the precursor preparation.

In this embodiment, when 2BB is won in the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 0 (non-advantageous section), the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 1 (inside) are transitioned at that time. In addition, in the present embodiment, when 2BB is won, 2BB is always set to be won in the game. Therefore, at the time of winning the 2BB, the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 1 are shifted to the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 2 (advantageous section). That is, when the 2BB is won, the non-advantageous section is shifted to the waiting section, and when the 2BB is won, the waiting section is shifted to the advantageous section.
Then, the 2BB game is executed in the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 2 state (during preparation for precursor). The 2BB game is shown as a normal game (non-special game) in terms of production. Therefore, if the player does not notice that 2BB has won, he will not be aware that he is playing 2BB. After the 2BB game is over, the main game state 1 and the advantageous zone type 2 (precursor) are entered.

The main game states 1, 2, 12 to 16 are all advantageous zone type 2.
The main gaming state 1 (advantageous zone type 2) is a gaming state that shifts from the main gaming state 0 and the advantageous zone type 2 (preparing for signs), and is a gaming state corresponding to the signs. This omen has a main omen (when it moves to the AT later) and a fake (gaze) omen (when it moves to the normal section later without moving to the AT). When the end condition of the 2BB operation is satisfied in the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 2 (during 2BB operation), the main game state 1 is entered. In addition, when the main game state 0 wins 1BBB or 1BBC, 1BBB or 1BBC is operating (shifts to the main game state 13), and when the operation end condition of 1BBB or 1BBC is satisfied, (the CZ rank described later is Unless it is "4"), the main game state 1 is entered.

Here, as shown in FIG. 19, after the operation of 2BB and after the operation of 1BBB or 1BBC, the state shifts to RT2 (replay high probability state). Then, when the AT is executed, it stays at this RT2. For this reason, when the main game state 1 is entered, until the end condition of the main game state 1 is satisfied, the correct pressing order for staying at RT2 is informed when the condition device of the replay E is operating. However, even if the condition device of the small winning combination A is activated, the correct pressing order is not notified. Then, when the ending condition of the main gaming state 1 is satisfied, the gaze warning time shifts to the main gaming state 0, and the main warning time shifts to the main gaming state 2. The main game state 2 is a main game state corresponding to AT.
When shifting to the main game state 0, the correct answer order is not notified after that when the condition device of the replay E and the small winning combination A is operated. On the other hand, when the state shifts to the main game state 2, after that, in addition to the replay E, the correct answer order is notified even when the condition device of the small winning combination A is operated.

In the main game state 2, one set of AT is repeated in principle 40 games (when there is no addition) until the end condition is satisfied. At the end of one set AT, it is determined again by lottery whether or not to continue one set AT. Then, in the main game state 2, when the continuation condition of AT is satisfied, the continuation counter described later is set to "2", and when the talk counter is less than "22", the main game state 2 is maintained and again. 1 set AT (initial value 40 games) is continued.
Here, the "story counter" is set to "1" as an initial value when the main game state 2 is entered, and is incremented by "1" every time one set AT is repeated. When the talk counter is less than "22", the main game state 2 is maintained. When the talk counter reaches "22", the main game state 16 is entered.
On the other hand, when the AT termination condition is satisfied, the continuation counter is set to "1", and the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 are entered.

In the present embodiment, one set is 40 games in principle during AT, but an additional lottery is executed during 40 games, and when the additional lottery is won, the set is AT-executed over 40 games. .. How to add the game when the winning number is won will be described with reference to a flowchart described later. In this embodiment, the number of additional games is determined by lottery from “0”, “10”, “30”, and “50” according to the winning number.

The main game state 16 is a game state in which the AT (including 1BB operation) is continued until the 1500 games, which is the continuous upper limit number of games of the advantageous section, is reached. That is, once the main game state 16 is entered, the main game state 16 remains unchanged during the operation of 1BBA to 1BBC (the main game state 14 or 15 to be described later is not entered). Furthermore, when the main game state 16 is entered, no additional lottery is executed.
In the main game state 16, when the advantageous zone clear counter reaches "0" (the number of games in the advantageous zone is "1500"), it is determined that the AT and the advantageous zone end conditions are satisfied, and the main game state 16 is set. When the game is over, the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 are entered.

On the other hand, when 1BBA is won in the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 0 (non-advantageous section), the main game state 0 and the advantageous section type 0 remain, and the main game state does not shift to the standby section. The advantageous section type remains the same. Then, the 1BBA game is executed in the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0, and the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 are maintained even after the 1BBA game ends.

On the other hand, when the player wins 1BBB or 1BBC in the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 (non- advantageous zone), the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 1 (standby zone) are entered. Furthermore, when the winning 1BBB or 1BBC is won, the main game state 13 and the advantageous zone type 2 are entered. In this way, depending on whether 1BBA (1BB with a setting difference) or winning is won, the advantageous section does not move, but when 1BBB or 1BBC is won, 1BBB or 1BBC (1BB without setting difference) is an advantageous section Move to.

The main game state 13 is a main game state during 1BBB or 1BBC operation, that is, a 1BBB game or a 1BBC game. When the operation of 1BBB or 1BBC ends (when the ending condition of the 1BBB game or the 1BBC game is satisfied), the main game state 1 or 2 is entered.
In the main game state 13, a lottery for CZ rank addition is performed (FIG. 35 described later). Then, when the CZ rank at the end of the main game state 13 is "3" or less, the main game state 1 (symptom) is entered, but when the CZ rank is "4", the sign of the main game state 1 is indicated. It shifts to the main game state 2 without passing.
As described above, in the CZ rank, “0” means AT non-win, and “1” or more means AT win. The CZ rank means that the larger the numerical value (the maximum value is “4”), the higher the AT continuation rate.

In the main game state 0, 1 or 2, and in the advantageous section type 2, when winning 2BB and winning, the main game state is maintained and the 2BB game is executed. Even after the 2BB game is over, the main game state is maintained.
When 1BB is won in the main game state 0, 1 or 2, and advantageous zone type 2, it shifts to advantageous zone type 3 (in the advantageous zone and inside 1BB). Advantageous section type 3 is a state in which lottery regarding AT is not performed. The winning 1BB is 1BBA (1BB with a setting difference), and when the 1BBA is won, the main game state 15 is entered. The main game state 15 is a main game state during 1BBA operation in the advantageous section. When the 1BBA operation is completed, the main game state 12 is entered.

Furthermore, when 1BBB or 1BBC (no setting difference 1BB) is won in the main game state 0, 1 or 2 and the advantageous zone type 2, the main game state 14 is entered. The main game state 14 is a main game state during operation of 1BBB or 1BBC in the advantageous section. When the 1BBB or 1BBC operation is completed, the main game state 12 is entered.

The main gaming state 12 is a main gaming state after winning 1BB during the advantageous section and ending the operation of 1BB. After the completion of 1BBA (1BB with setting difference) operation and after the completion of 1BBB or 1BBC (1BB without setting difference) operation, the same main game state 12 is entered.
The main game state 12 is one game in the present embodiment. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be set for multiple games. In the main game state 12, a specific process regarding AT is executed. In the present embodiment, the main game state 12 is set to the main game state 2 or 16. Specifically, the value of the story number counter at the time of shifting to the main game state 12 is judged, and when the story number counter is 22, the main game state 16 is set, and the story number counter is less than 22 (“0”). The main game state 2 is set. As a result, in the next game in the main game state 12, the main game state 2 or 16 is entered.

In addition, when winning 1BB in the main gaming state 2, shifting to the main gaming state 14 or 15, and then shifting to the main gaming state 12, the talk number counter is set to "+1" and the state management counter is set to "40". Set (FIG. 47 described later).
Here, for example, when the talk counter = "5" and the number of remaining games "20" in the AT of the set, 1BB is won, and when the game is returned to the main game state 2 again after the operation of 1BB, the talk counter = 1 set AT40 game with "6" is restarted. That is, when 1BB is won in the middle of 40 games of 1 set AT, the AT set with the number of talks concerned is stopped at that time, and the talk counter is set to "+1" by the operation of 1BB. Then, when returning to the main game state 2, the one set AT40 game is started again.
If the winning counter is 1BB when the talk counter is equal to or more than "21", the talk counter becomes "22" in the main game state 12 (battle ending process described later) after the end of 1BB, and the main game state 12 is changed to main. The game state 16 is entered.

As described above, during the advantageous section, when there is no setting difference 1BB (1BBB or 1BBC) or there is a setting difference 1BB (1BBA), both shift to the main game state 12 after the end of the BB operation. To do. Then, in the main game state 12, the talk counter is set to "+1", the state management counter is set to "40", and the main game state 2 or 16 is set to set or re-set the AT from the next game. Can be set.
Therefore, in the non-advantageous section (normal section), when 1BB (1BBA) with a setting difference is won and 1BBA operation is in progress, the advantageous section and the AT are not moved after the 1BBA operation is completed. On the other hand, in the advantageous zone, if 1BB (1BBA) with a setting difference is won and 1BBA is in operation, the AT is set or reset after the operation of 1BBA is completed.

FIG. 21 is a diagram showing AT-related data stored in the RWM 53 in this embodiment. The data shown in FIG. 21 is a part, and various data other than the data shown in FIG. 21 is stored in the RWM 53.
In FIG. 21, "advantageous section type" is "0 (non-advantageous section, that is, normal section)", "1 (standby section)", "2 (advantageous section and non-inside) depending on the current game section. , Or “3 (advantageous zone and inside)” is stored.

For example, in FIG. 20, when the main game state is 0 and the advantageous zone type is 0, "0" is stored in the advantageous zone type. Then, if, for example, 1BBB or 1BBC is won in this state, the main game state is 0 and the advantageous zone type 1 (standby zone) is set, and the data is updated from "0" to "1". Furthermore, when the winning 1BBB or 1BBC is won, the main game state 13 and the advantageous zone type 2 are set, so the data is updated from "1" to "2".

The "main game state" is data for determining the current main game state, and stores "0" if the main game state is 0 and "2" if the main game state is 2.
The "advantageous section clear counter" is data for counting the number of games in the advantageous section, and is "0" in the non-advantageous section. When the advantageous section is started, "1500" (initial value) ) Is set. Then, "1" is subtracted each time one game is consumed (decrement counter). When the advantageous section clear counter becomes “0”, it is determined that the number of continuous upper limit games of the advantageous section has been reached, and the advantageous section is ended.

When the advantageous section clear counter is composed of an increment counter, each game is incremented by "1" during the advantageous section, and when the advantageous section clear counter is "1500", the upper limit number of times of the advantageous section is played. It is judged that the value has reached, the advantageous section is ended, and the advantageous section clear counter is cleared (set to “0”).
The “CZ (chance zone) rank” is a value that indicates whether or not to shift to AT, and the degree of advantage (continuation rate) when shifting to AT. When the CZ rank is “0”, the AT is not winning, and when it is “1” or more, the AT is winning. Further, the larger the CZ rank value, the higher the AT continuation rate (the winning probability of the continuous lottery at the end of one set AT in the main gaming state 2) is set.

The "state management counter" is data (decrement counter) indicating the number of remaining games in the main game state 1 (precursor) or the main game state 2 (AT). In the main game state 1, every game, " 1” is subtracted. Then, when the state management counter becomes “0”, it is determined that the ending condition of the main game state 1 (precursor) is satisfied, and the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 are determined according to the CZ rank at that time. , Or the main game state 2 and the advantageous section type 2.

Further, in the main game state 2, "40" is set when starting a set of ATs, and "1" is subtracted for each game. If the player wins the additional lottery during AT, the winning game count is added to the state management counter. Then, in the main game state 2, when the state management counter becomes "0", the AT of the set is ended and the continuous lottery is executed.
The "speak number counter" is data (increment counter) corresponding to the number of AT sets, is "0" before shifting to the main gaming state 2, and is "1" when shifting to the main gaming state 2. Become. When the AT of one set 40 games is executed and the AT continuous lottery is won, the talk number counter becomes "+1", and the AT of one set 40 games is executed again. Also, when 1BB is won during the advantageous section and the game state shifts to the main game state 12, the story counter becomes "+1".
On the other hand, when the AT continuous lottery is not won, the talk number counter is cleared and the main game state 0 and the advantageous zone type 0 are entered.
When the talk counter reaches "22", it is determined that the transition condition from the main game state 2 to the main game state 16 is satisfied, and the main game state 16 is entered. Then, the talk counter "22" is maintained until the AT (advantageous section) ends.

The "continuation counter" is data indicating whether to continue the AT, "0" before deciding whether to continue the AT, "1" when deciding not to continue the AT, AT When it is decided to continue with, the value of "2" is stored. At the end of the one set AT40 game in the main game state 2, the value of the continuation counter is read to determine whether or not to continue the AT.
The "upper limit rank" is data for determining whether or not to execute the AT (advantageous section) up to the continuous upper limit game number "1500" game, and when it is determined to execute up to the continuous upper limit game number "7". Is stored, and otherwise, "0" is stored. During AT, it is determined by lottery whether or not to set the upper limit rank to "7".

The description returns to FIG.
In FIG. 1, the external signal transmitting means 70 transmits an external signal to the external centralized terminal board 100. The external signals are signals indicating the start and end of the advantageous section, the start and end of the AT, the start and end of operation of the accessory, and the like.

The control command transmitting means 71 transmits to the sub control board 80 information (control command) necessary for the performance output by the sub control board 80.
The control command includes, for example, a first control command and a second control command. Both the first control command and the second control command are 8-bit 1-byte data, for example. Then, one control command is a pair of the first control command and the second control command. For example, the first control command may be set to data indicating the type of control command, and the second control command may be set to data indicating a parameter (variable).

For example, when the control command indicates RT, the first control command is “33(H)” (00110011(B)) in this embodiment. Further, the RT parameter is “00000001(B)” in the present embodiment when it is RT1, for example. Therefore, the 2-byte data combining these, “00110011/00000001” (“/” indicates between the first control command and the second control command, and is not actually present.) is the RT control command. Is transmitted from the main control board 50 to the sub control board 80.
The push order instruction number (only when the push order is notified), the effect group number, and the accessory condition device number are also transmitted in the same manner as in the above RT. Also in this case, the first control command is the type data, and the second control command is the data stored in the RWM 53.

The control command transmitting means 71 does not transmit the winning and replay condition device numbers to the sub control board 80. This is because, for example, when the winning numbers “8” to “13” (small winning combinations A1 to A6) are won, there is a possibility that the correct pressing order may be known based on the winning and replay condition device numbers due to an illegal act. On the other hand, with respect to the accessory condition device number, there is no possibility of the above-mentioned fraudulent acts. Therefore, for example, when the player wins 1BBA, the accessory condition device number “1” (00000001(B)) is transmitted to the sub control board 80.

In FIG. 1, the sub CPU 85 of the sub control board 80 includes an effect output control unit 91.
As described above, the effect output control means 91 is based on the control commands transmitted from the main control board 50, specifically, the control commands such as the pressing order instruction number, the effect group number, and the accessory condition device number. Then, at what timing (when the start switch 41 is operated or when each stop switch 42 is operated, etc.), what kind of effect is to be output (how the lamp 21 is turned on, blinked or turned off), the speaker 22 Specific sound content, such as what kind of sound is to be output from the above, what kind of image is to be displayed on the image display device 23, etc.) is determined by lottery.

Then, the effect output control unit 91 controls the output of the effect lamp 21, the speaker 22, and the image display device 23 according to the determination. Also, during 1BB operation or AT, the number of games acquired and the number of games (remaining number of games or digesting games) are displayed in an image. Furthermore, during AT, when the instruction function is activated, the correct pressing order is notified (image display). For example, when a small winning combination A1 is won in a game in AT and a control command corresponding to a push order instruction number is received, the player is given a correct answer order such as "123" or "left middle right". Informs you that you can easily know the correct push order. FIG. 3 shows an example in which “123” and the pressing order are displayed as an image.

Furthermore, the control command for the production group number does not include information about which winning number (role) is actually won, but it can be said that it includes rough winning information. For example, when the control command corresponding to the effect group number “6” (see FIG. 9) indicating that the small winning combination A group has been won is received, the sub control board until which one of the small winning combination A groups has been won is received. 80 side cannot know. However, it is possible to know which small win group A was won. Therefore, it is possible to display a design of "bell" or output effects such as turning on a frame lamp in "yellow" which is a corresponding color of "bell".

As described above, in the main game state 13 (1BB operation without setting difference), the CZ rank addition lottery is performed (provided that CZ rank is not “4”), but the effect output control means 91 is in the main game state. In 13, it is possible to output an effect that indicates the presence or absence of the CZ rank addition lottery, the lottery result, and the like.
Further, in the main game state 1 (preceding), the effect output control means 91 can output an effect that suggests whether or not the AT is won (CZ rank). Further, in the main game state 1, since the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the condition device operated in the game, the effect output control means 91 suggests the presence or absence of the CZ rank addition lottery, the lottery result, and the like. Output is possible.

Furthermore, in the main game state 2 (AT), since the additional lottery is executed based on the condition device operated in the game, the effect output control means 91, in the main game state 2, the presence or absence of the additional lottery and the lottery result. It is possible to output effects that suggest such things as. Furthermore, in the main game state 2, since the continuous lottery is executed in the game at the end of one set AT, the effect output control means 91 can output the effect suggesting the result of the continuous lottery.
In addition, in the main game state 14 (1BB game related to 1BB without setting difference that is won in the advantageous section), since the additional lottery is executed based on the condition device operated in the game, the effect output control means 91 causes the main output. In the gaming state 14, it is possible to output an effect that suggests the presence or absence of the additional lottery, the lottery result, and the like.

On the other hand, in the main game state 15 (1BB game related to 1BB with a setting difference won in the advantageous zone), since the additional lottery like the main game state 14 is not executed, the effect output control means 91 sets the main game state. In 15, the effect related to the additional lottery is not output. For example, in the main game state 15, the effect output control unit 91 outputs an effect such as an image display of an introduction of an appearing character or an introduction of a story. However, after the main game state 15 is finished, the main game state 12 is passed to the main game state 2 or 16 (AT). Output is possible.

Further, the main game state 16 is a main game state in which it is decided to execute AT until the advantageous section reaches the continuous upper limit number of games, and a lottery regarding continuation of AT or addition of the number of games is not executed. Therefore, in the main game state 16, the effect output control means 91 does not output effects related to continuation of AT or addition of the number of games (effects related to the notification game (AT)) even if the player wins a small winning combination.
Here, the "effect regarding the informative game (AT)" includes a suggestive effect and a notice effect regarding the winning or continuation of the informative game (AT), and a suggestive effect and an informative effect regarding the addition of the AT game number, for example, the informative game. The presentation of (AT) itself is not included.
Further, even if the player wins 1BB in the main game state 16 and executes the 1BB game, the main game state 16 is maintained. Therefore, it is possible to output the effect that the current game is 1BB, but the effect related to the additional lottery output in the main game state 14 is not output.

In the main game state 16, when the advantageous section clear counter becomes "88" or less, the AT effect until then is switched to the ending effect. The ending effect is an effect for informing the player that the number of remaining games in the advantageous section (AT) has decreased, in other words, the advantageous section (AT) is approaching the end.
Details of the effect when winning 1BB during the ending effect will be described later (FIGS. 48 to 49 ), but the ending effect has priority over the effect during the BB game, and the ending is performed even when the game shifts to the BB game during the ending effect. Continue production.

Next, the control flow of this embodiment will be described.
In this embodiment, a main process (also referred to as a main loop) that is performed once per game is provided as information processing for advancing the game. The main process is a process in which detection of inserted medals, stop control of reels 31, winning process after all reels 31 are stopped, and the like are performed.

FIG. 22 is a flowchart showing the main processing in this embodiment.
Note that the main processing of FIG. 22 is mainly the minimum processing that needs to be described in the present embodiment, and the medal acceptance processing, reel stop control processing, payout processing, etc. are omitted. It does not mean that the process of is not executed.
In FIG. 22, in step S11, start control is performed. This process is a process to be executed when the specified number of medals of the game have been bet and the start switch 41 has been operated. For example, the reel control means 65 executes processes such as starting rotation of the reel 31.
Next, proceeding to step S12, the winning combination lottery means 61 carries out a lottery of the winning numbers. In the next step S13, the advantageous section shift process is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 23 which will be described later, and is a process of performing a CZ rank lottery and setting (storing) the lottery result when a BB is won in the game.
Next, the process proceeds to step S14, and the advantageous section type management start processing is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 24, which will be described later, and is a process of setting a push order instruction number or the like.

In the next step S15, start command transmission is performed. In this process, the control command transmitting unit 71 transmits the effect group number, the pressing order instruction information, etc. to the sub control board 80. The production group number and the push order instruction information are determined based on the winning combination lottery result (winning number) in step S12.
Next, in step S16, when the stop switch 42 is operated based on the winning combination lottery result (winning number) in step S12, the reel control means 65 stops and controls the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42. .. When all reels 31 have been stopped, the process proceeds to step S17.

In step S17, the advantageous section type management total stop processing is executed. This process is the process shown in FIG. 25, and the process corresponding to the stop symbol, the advantageous period clear counter management process, and the like are performed. Then, the process proceeds to step S<b>18, and the control command transmission means 71 transmits information on the winning combination, information on the number of payouts, and the like to the sub-control board 80.

FIG. 23A is a flowchart showing the advantageous zone shift processing in step S13 in FIG.
In FIG. 23A, in step S31, it is determined whether or not the advantageous zone type is “0”. This determination is made by determining whether or not the value of the advantageous section type of the RWM 53 shown in FIG. 21 is “0”. When it is determined that the advantageous zone type is "0", the process proceeds to step S32, and when it is determined that it is not "0", the process according to this flowchart ends.
Here, in this flowchart, when the advantageous zone type is “0”, it is determined whether or not the condition for setting the advantageous zone type to “1” is satisfied, and when it is determined that the condition is satisfied, the advantageous zone is determined. Is to be set to "1".

In the next step S32, it is determined whether or not a special part has been won in the game. When a special combination is won in the game, a value other than “0” is stored in the accessory condition device number in the storage area of the RWM 53, so the value stored in this storage area is other than “0”. Determine if there is. When it is determined that the special combination has been won, the process proceeds to step S33, and when it is determined that the special combination has not been won, the processing according to this flowchart ends.
In step S33, it is determined whether or not the winning special combination is 1BBB, 1BBC, or 2BB. When the accessory condition device number is "2" to "6", it is determined that one of these special prizes has been won. If it is determined that one of 1BBB, 1BBC, or 2BB has been won, the process proceeds to step S34, and if it is determined that no one has been won, the process of this flowchart ends.
Then, in step S34, "1" is set to the advantageous zone type. As a result, the game section becomes a standby section.

Next, in step S35, a CZ rank lottery is performed. This lottery is for determining whether to shift to the main game state 2, that is, AT. Here, FIG. 23(b) is a diagram showing the number of units of the CZ rank lottery according to the winning combination. When the winning special role is 1BBB or 1BBC, the CZ rank “4” is selected with a probability of “4/256”. On the other hand, when the winning special role is 2BB, the CZ rank “0” is selected with a probability of “256/256”. In the present embodiment, when the CZ rank is “0”, the AT non-winning state is shown, and when the CZ rank is “1” or more, the AT winning state is shown. Therefore, just winning 2BB does not win AT. On the other hand, when 1BBB or 1BBC is won, the CZ rank may be "4" (winning AT).

In the next step S36, the CZ rank determined in step S35 is stored in the RWM 53 (FIG. 21). Next, in step S37, it is determined whether or not the CZ rank is "0". When the CZ rank is "0", the process proceeds to step S38, and when it is not "0", the process according to this flowchart ends.

In step S38, "5" is set in the state management counter. The state management counter "5" set here is the number of precursor games. For example, when the state management counter is set to "5" based on the winning of 2BB, it means that the gallant sign in the main gaming state 1 after the 2BB game is finished is executed 5 games. However, there may be cases where an AT is elected during the warning. Also, when the state management counter is set to "5" based on the winning of 1BBB or 1BBC, the initial value of the state management counter in the main game state 13 (1BB game without setting difference) becomes "5". In the main game state 13, as shown in step S224 of FIG. 35, which will be described later, a precursor counter addition lottery (lottery for adding the number of precursor games) is executed, and when this lottery is won, the state management counter wins (the precursor game. The number of times) is added. After step S38, the process according to this flowchart ends.

FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing the advantageous zone type management start processing in step S14 in FIG.
First, in step S51, an instruction number setting process is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 26, and is a process of setting a push order instruction number corresponding to the winning number.
In the next step S52, the branch of the advantageous section type is executed. Here, the advantageous section type at this time is determined, and when the advantageous section type is "0", "1" or "3", the process according to this flowchart is ended, and the advantageous section type is "2". If so, the process proceeds to step S53.
In step S53, processing for starting the advantageous zone type 2 is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 27, and is a process at the time of start corresponding to the main game state. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing the advantageous zone type management total stop processing in step S17 in FIG.
First, in step S61, an advantageous section type 3 branch is executed. The advantageous zone type at the present time is determined. When the advantageous zone type is “0”, the process proceeds to step S64, and when the advantageous zone type is “2”, the process proceeds to step S62 and the advantageous zone type is “1” or When it is "3", the process proceeds to step S63.
In step S64, advantageous zone clear counter management processing is executed. This process is the process shown in FIG. 30, and is the process of updating the advantageous section clear counter.

On the other hand, in step S62, all stop processing corresponding to the advantageous zone type 2 is executed. This processing is the processing shown in FIG. 28, and is for executing the all stop processing according to the main game state. Further, in step S63, special symbol design display processing is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 29, and is a process of setting the main game state when the symbol combination corresponding to the special combination is stopped (when the special combination is won). After the processing of steps S62 and S63, the process proceeds to step S64.
Then, after the processing of step S64, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 26 is a flowchart showing the instruction number setting process in step S51 of FIG.
First, in step S71, the instruction number "0" is set. This process is a process of clearing the storage area of the RWM 53 that stores the instruction number.
In the next step S72, it is determined whether or not the advantageous section clear counter is "0". When it is determined that it is not "0" (that is, when it is in the advantageous section), the process proceeds to step S73, and when it is determined that it is "0", the process according to this flowchart ends. Therefore, the instruction number setting process is executed only during the advantageous period.

In step S73, the 4-branching process of the condition device corresponding to the winning number won in the game is performed. When the replay E1 of the winning number "5" is operated, the process proceeds to step S74, when the replay E2 of the winning number "6" is operated, the process proceeds to step S75, and when the replay E3 of the winning number "7" is operated, the process proceeds to step S76. In addition, the process proceeds to step S80 except when the replays E1 to E3 are activated.

In step S74, the instruction number is selected by lottery. Here, one of the instruction numbers “A1” or “A2” is selected. Here, the relationship between the instruction number and the pressing order is as follows.
A1: Left middle right (press order "=1" is displayed)
A2: Left and right center (press order "=2" is displayed)
A3: Middle left and right (displays pressing order "=3")
A4: Middle right left (displays "=4" in push order)
A5: Right left middle (displays the pressing order “=5”)
A6: Right middle left (press order "=6" is displayed)
In the present embodiment, only the stop switch 42 of the first stop is set as the correct answer pushing order when the replays E1 to E3 are operated. Therefore, for example, the correct answer pushing order when the replay E1 is activated is the left first stop. Further, in the present embodiment, only 6 options are set as the push order instruction number. Therefore, when the replays E1 to E3 are operated, any one is selected by lottery from the 6-option push order that matches the correct answer push order. For example, when the replay E1 is activated, one of "A1" and "A2" is selected. Further, since "A1" to "A6" are hexadecimal numbers, for example, "A1" becomes "10100001(B)", and this value is stored in the storage area of the pressing order instruction number of the RWM 53. Further, in the present embodiment, the segment lighting pattern corresponding to “A” is “=”. Therefore, when the push order instruction number “A1” is selected, “=1” is displayed on the acquired number display LED 78.

As described above, when the replay E1 is activated, either one of "A1" and "A2" is selected (step S74), and the selected pushing order instruction number is stored in the RWM 53 (step S77). Similarly, when the replay E2 is activated, either one of "A3" and "A4" is selected (step S75), and the selected push order instruction number is stored in the RWM 53 (step S78). Similarly, when the replay E3 is activated, one of "A5" and "A6" is selected (step S76), and the selected push order instruction number is stored in the RWM 53 (step S79). After the above processing, the processing according to this flowchart ends.

On the other hand, when the process proceeds from step S73 to step S80, it is determined whether or not the advantageous section type is "3" (advantageous section and inside 1BB). When it is determined that the advantageous zone type is "3", the process proceeds to step S82, and when it is determined that the advantageous zone type is not "3", the process proceeds to step S81. In step S81, it is determined whether or not the main gaming state exceeds "1" (for example, the main gaming state 2). When it is determined that the main game state exceeds "1", the process proceeds to step S82, and when the main game state does not exceed "1" (when the main game state is "0" or "1"), the process according to this flowchart ends. ..

In step S82, seven branches of the condition device are executed. When the winning numbers “8” to “13” are won in the game and the small wins A1 to A6 of the condition device are activated, the process proceeds to steps S83 to 88, respectively. On the other hand, the processing according to this flowchart ends except when the small winning combinations A1 to A6 are activated.
When it is determined in step S82 that the small winning combination A1 is in operation, the process proceeds to step S83, the instruction number "A1" is set, and the process of this flowchart ends.
When it is determined in step S82 that the small win A2 is in operation, the process proceeds to step S84, the instruction number "A2" is set, and the process according to this flowchart ends.

Similarly, when it is determined in step S82 that the small winning combination A3 is in operation, the process proceeds to step S85, the instruction number "A3" is set, and the process of this flowchart ends.
When it is determined in step S82 that the small winning combination A4 is in operation, the process proceeds to step S86, the instruction number "A4" is set, and the process of this flowchart ends.
Similarly, when it is determined in step S82 that the small winning combination A5 is in operation, the process proceeds to step S87, the instruction number "A5" is set, and the process of this flowchart ends.
When it is determined in step S82 that the small winning combination A6 is in operation, the process proceeds to step S88, the instruction number "A6" is set, and the process of this flowchart ends.

Through the above processing, if the advantageous section clear counter is not “0” (when the advantageous section is in progress), the correct answer order is notified at the time of winning the replay E group.
When the advantageous zone type is "3" (inside 1BB in the advantageous zone) or when the main game state exceeds "1" (during AT), the correct answer push order is announced at the time of winning the small role group A. To do.

FIG. 27 is a flowchart showing the advantageous zone type 2 start-time processing in step S53 in FIG.
In FIG. 27, in step S101, it is determined whether or not 1BB has not been won. If it is determined that 1BB has not been won, the process proceeds to step S102, and if it is determined that 1BB has been won, the process according to this flowchart ends.

In step S102, seven branches are executed according to the current main game state. The reason for controlling in this way is that the processing at the start differs depending on the main game state.
First, when the main game state is 0, the process proceeds to step S103, and the CZ rank addition lottery process is executed. Here, when the main game state is 0 in the advantageous zone type 2, that is, in the advantageous zone, it corresponds to the case of the 2BB game, as shown in FIG. In the 2BB game, the CZ rank addition lottery process is executed based on the operated condition device. As described above, the CZ rank is “0” when the 2BB is won (FIG. 23(b)). Then, when shifting to the 2BB game, the addition lottery process of the CZ rank is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 31, which will be described later, and is substantially an AT lottery. After the CZ rank addition lottery process, the process according to this flowchart ends.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step S102 that the game is in the main game state 1, the process proceeds to step S104, and the main game state 1 start time process (FIG. 32 described later) is executed. Similarly, when it is determined in step S102 that the game is in the main game state 2, the process proceeds to step S105, and the main game state 2 start time process (FIG. 33(a) described later) is executed. Further, similarly, when it is determined in step S102 that the main game state 12 is reached, the process proceeds to step S106, and the main game state 12 start time process (FIG. 34(a) described later) is executed.

If it is determined in step S102 that the game is in the main game state 13, the process proceeds to step S107, and the main game state 13 start time process (FIG. 35 described later) is executed. Similarly, when it is determined in step S102 that the game is in the main game state 14, the process proceeds to step S108, and the main game state 14 start time process (FIG. 37 described later) is executed. Further, similarly, when it is determined in step S102 that the game state is not one of the main game states 0, 1, 2, 12, 13, or 14 (hence, the main game state 15 or 16), the processing according to this flowchart ends. To do.
The above-mentioned start time processing for each main game state is processing for executing a lottery or the like according to each game state.

FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing the advantageous zone type 2 total stop processing in step S62 in FIG.
First, in step S121, it is determined whether or not 1BB has not been won. If it is determined that 1BB is not won, the process proceeds to step S124. On the other hand, when it is determined that 1BB is won, the process proceeds to step S122. In step S122, the advantageous zone type "3" is set. That is, it is an advantageous section type indicating the inside of 1BB in the advantageous section. Next, proceeding to step S123, a special combination symbol display process is executed. This process is a process shown in FIG. 29, and is a process of determining whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to the special combination has stopped on the activated line, and setting the main game state accordingly. Then, after this processing, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

In step S124, eight branches are executed according to the main game state. This is because the processing when all reels 31 are stopped differs depending on each main gaming state. First, when it is determined in step S124 that the main game state is 0, the process proceeds to step S125, and the main game state 0 all stop process (FIG. 38(a) described later) is executed. Similarly, when it is determined in step S124 that the game is in the main game state 1, the process proceeds to step S126, and a main game state 1 all stop process (FIG. 39 described later) is executed. Similarly, when it is determined in step S124 that the game is in the main game state 2, the process proceeds to step S127, and the main game state 2 all stop process (FIG. 40 described later) is executed. Further, similarly, when it is determined in step S124 that the main gaming state 12 is reached, the process proceeds to step S128, and main gaming state 12 all stop processing (FIG. 41 described later) is executed.

If it is determined in step S124 that the game is in the main game state 13, the process proceeds to step S129, and the main game state 13 all stop process (FIG. 42(a) described later) is executed. Similarly, when it is determined in step S124 that the game is in the main game state 14, the process proceeds to step S130, and the main game state 14 all stop process (FIG. 43 described later) is executed. Furthermore, similarly, when it is determined in step S124 that the game is in the main game state 15, the process proceeds to step S131, and the main game state 15 all stop process (FIG. 44 described later) is executed. Similarly, when it is determined in step S124 that the game state is neither one of the main game states 0 to 2 and 12 to 15 (hence, the main game state 16), the process according to this flowchart ends.

As described above, after executing the all-stop processing according to each gaming state, the processing according to this flowchart ends.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 27 and 28, in the advantageous section type 2 (during the advantageous section), the start processing and the all stop processing for each gaming state are executed.
When the main game state 16 is selected, the lottery related to the AT (additional lottery, etc.) is not executed, and therefore the start process and the total stop process peculiar to the main game state 16 are not included.

FIG. 29 is a flowchart showing the special symbol design display processing in step S63 of FIG. 25 and step S123 of FIG. The "special combination" in this flowchart refers to the special combination (1BB and 2BB) excluding SB.
First, in step S141, it is determined whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to the special combination in the game has stopped on the activated line (whether the special combination has won). When it is determined that the special winning combination has won, the process proceeds to step S142, and when it is determined that the special winning combination has not been won, the processing according to this flowchart ends.

In step S142, it is determined whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to 2BB is hidden. If it is determined that the 2BB symbol combination is not displayed (2BB is not winning), the process proceeds to step S143. If it is determined that the 2BB symbol combination is not hidden (2BB is winning), the process proceeds to step S149. ..
In step S143, it is determined whether or not the main game state 16 is in effect. When it is determined that it is not the main game state 16, the process proceeds to step S144, and when it is determined that it is the main game state 16, the process proceeds to step S149.

In step S144, it is determined whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to 1BBA has stopped on the activated line. When it is determined that the symbol combination corresponding to 1BBA is stopped on the activated line, the process proceeds to step S146. When it is determined that the symbol combination corresponding to 1BBA is not stopped on the activated line, the process proceeds to step S145. When it is determined in step S144 that the symbol combination corresponding to 1BBA is not a symbol combination corresponding to 1BBB or 1BBC is stopped on the activated line.
In step S146, the main game state 15 is set. Then, the process proceeds to step S149.

On the other hand, when the process proceeds from step S144 to step S145, it is determined whether the advantageous zone type is "3". If it is determined that the advantageous section type is “3”, the process proceeds to step S147, and if it is determined that the advantageous section type is not “3”, the process proceeds to step S148.
In step S147, the main game state 14 is set. Then, the process proceeds to step S149. On the other hand, in step S148, the main game state 13 is set. Then, the process proceeds to step S149.
In step S149, the advantageous zone type 2 is set. By this processing, the advantageous section type “3” or “1” is updated to “2”. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 30 is a flowchart showing the advantageous zone clear counter management processing in step S64 in FIG.
First, in step S164, the advantageous period clear counter is decremented by "1". This process is a process of subtracting "1" from the advantageous section clear counter value stored in the RWM 53. Next, in step S162, it is determined whether or not the advantageous zone clear counter before the subtraction in step S161 is "0". If it is determined to be "0", the process proceeds to step S163, and if it is determined to be not "0", the process proceeds to step S165.
Here, the value before the subtraction of the advantageous period clear counter being “0” means that the advantageous period is not in the advantageous period.

Although not shown in the flow chart, a counter is used in which the value after subtraction is "0" even if "1" is subtracted when the value before the subtraction of the advantageous interval clear counter is "0". ing.
In step S163, it is determined whether or not the advantageous zone type is "2", that is, whether or not it is in the advantageous zone. When it is determined that the advantageous section type is “2”, the process proceeds to step S164, and when it is determined that the advantageous section type is not “2”, the process according to this flowchart ends.
In step S164, the advantageous section clear counter value stored in the RWM 53 is updated to "1500". That is, this is a process of setting the initial value of the advantageous section clear counter with the start of the advantageous section. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

On the other hand, in step S162, it is determined that the advantageous interval clear counter before subtraction is not "0", and when the process proceeds to step S165, it is determined whether or not the advantageous interval clear counter after subtraction is "0". Here, "0" is determined when the number of games in the advantageous section reaches "1500", that is, the number of continuous upper limit games in the advantageous section. When it is determined that the advantageous zone clear counter after subtraction is "0", the process proceeds to step S166, and when it is determined that it is not "0", the process according to this flowchart ends.

In step S166, all the various parameters relating to the advantageous section are cleared. Of the data stored in the RWM 53, for example, all the parameters shown in FIG. 21 are set to “0”. As a result, the advantageous zone type becomes "0" and the main game state also becomes "0". As a result, from the next game, as shown in FIG. 20, the game state shifts to the advantageous section type 0 (non-advantageous section) and the main game state 0. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended. At the time of step S166, it is not necessary to clear the advantageous section clear counter because it is already "0". However, for example, when the batch clear processing is more efficient, the step S166 is performed again. The advantageous section clear counter may be cleared.

FIG. 31A is a flowchart showing the CZ rank addition lottery. The CZ rank addition lottery is carried out not only in step S103 of FIG. 27 but also in step S182 of FIG. 32 (main game state 1 start process), which will be described later, and in step S222 of FIG. 35 (main game state 13 start process), which will be described later. Executed.
Further, FIG. 31B is a diagram showing a condition device and a numerical table in the CZ rank addition lottery process.
31A, in step S171, it is determined whether or not the AT lottery condition device has operated. Here, the “AT lottery condition device” corresponds to a condition device that is a target of the CZ rank addition lottery (a winning number that is a target of the CZ rank addition lottery).

FIG. 31B is a diagram showing a condition device that is a target of the CZ rank addition lottery process and the number thereof.
The AT lottery condition device corresponds to the replay D and the SB during the 2BB game during the sign preparation or the sign. When the player wins the replay D or SB, the winning flag for the winning ALL is also set at the same time.
Further, the AT lottery condition device in the omen corresponds to 2BB (2BBA to 2BBC), small win C (strong cherry), small win D (weak cherry), and small win E (watermelon A).
Furthermore, the AT lottery condition device during the 1BB game corresponds to the small combination H (small combination ALL), small combination I (BB medium weak rare), and small combination J (BB medium strong rare).
Then, when it is determined in step S171 that the AT lottery condition device is operating, the process proceeds to step S172, and when it is determined that the AT lottery condition device is not operating, the process of this flowchart ends.

In step S172, the addition lottery for the CZ rank is performed with the winning probability corresponding to the number table shown in FIG. 31B when the AT lottery condition device is activated (step S172).
When the CZ rank is "0", it corresponds to AT non-win, and when it is "1" or more, it corresponds to AT win.
For example, in the 2BB game during the preparation or the precursor, if the player wins the replay D, the CZ rank “1” or higher is selected with a probability of “134/256”, so that the player wins the AT.

If the player wins the replay D for two games in a row during the 2BB game, he/she can win the CZ rank addition lottery 1 twice. Then, the total value of the two times is added to the CZ rank. The upper limit value of the CZ rank is “4” in this embodiment. Therefore, when the CZ rank is already "4", the lottery result is not added even if the CZ rank addition lottery is executed. However, not limited to this, when the CZ rank becomes “4”, the CZ rank addition lottery should not be executed even if the execution condition of the CZ rank addition lottery is satisfied (even if the AT lottery condition device operates). May be.
Next, proceeding to step S173, a value corresponding to the lottery result is added to the CZ rank of RWMZ53. For example, when the CZ rank up to that time is "1" and the player wins "1" in the CZ rank addition lottery in the game, the CZ rank of the RWM 53 is updated to "2". Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 32 is a flow chart showing the main game state 1 start time process in step S104 of FIG. As shown in FIG. 20, the main game state 1 corresponds to the sign of the advantageous zone type 2.
First, in step S181, the state management counter is decremented by "1". The state management counter here counts the number of precursor games, and a predetermined value is set when the main game state 1 is entered. Then, in the main game state 1, every game, "1" is subtracted from the state management counter. Next, proceeding to step S182, the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the condition device operated in the game.

Since the CZ rank addition lottery here is during the omen, it corresponds to "CZ rank addition lottery 2" in FIG. 31(b). In the game, when the condition device of 2BB, small winning combination C, small winning combination D, or small winning combination E is operated, the value to be added to the CZ rank is determined by the number shown in FIG. 31(b). Also, the CZ rank addition lottery is not executed except when these condition devices are activated. Note that the CZ addition lottery may not be executed at the time of winning the 2BB, but as shown in FIG. 31B, a lottery in which “0” is selected with a probability of 100% may be executed. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 33A is a flowchart showing the main game state 2 start time process in step S105 in FIG. Further, FIG. 33B is a diagram showing a numerical table for each condition device at the time of additional lottery.
In FIG. 33(a), first, in step S191, it is determined whether or not the value of the state management counter is "0". The main game state 2 is in AT, and when one set of AT is started, "40" is stored in the state management counter. Then, during AT, each game, the state management counter is decremented by "1". When the state management counter becomes "0", it is determined that the termination condition for one set AT is satisfied.

When it is determined that the state management counter is not "0" and the process proceeds to step S192, the value of the state management counter is decremented by "1". Next, proceeding to step S193, it is determined whether or not the condition-applying condition device has been operated in the game. Here, the "addition target condition device" in the present flowchart refers to a condition device that makes it possible to execute the addition of the number of games of one set AT40 game.
FIG. 33B shows a condition device that is a target of the additional lottery and a table of its number. The condition device to be added is the replays D and SB during the 2BB and 2BB games, the small combination C (strong cherry), the small combination D (weak cherry), the small combination E (watermelon A), and the small combination H (small) during the BB game. Role ALL), small role I (weak rare in BB), and small role J (strong rare in BB).

When it is determined that these condition devices have operated, the process proceeds to step S194 and the additional lottery is executed. For example, when the small prize C (strong cherry) is activated, the additional number "30" is determined with a probability of "85/256", and the additional number "50" is determined with a probability of "85/256".
As a result of this addition lottery, when the number of additions exceeding “0” is won, the value is added to the state management counter. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the state management counter is “0” in step S191 and the process proceeds to step S195, the continuous lottery process is executed. The continuous lottery process is a lottery of whether or not to execute the next set of AT (40 games), and is executed by the winning probability shown in the flowchart of FIG. 45 and the number table of FIG. 46 described later.
In the next step S196, it is determined whether or not the continuous lottery is won. Here, when the continuous lottery result is "0", it is determined that the player has not won, and when the continuous lottery result is "1", it is determined that the player has won. When it is determined that the continuous lottery is won, the process proceeds to step S199, and "2" is stored in the continuous counter of the RWM 53. The continuation counter "2" means AT continuation, and the continuation counter "1" means AT non-continuation (end). Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step S196 that the continuous lottery has not been won, the process proceeds to step S197. In step S197, it is determined whether or not the upper limit rank is "7".
Here, the "upper limit rank" is a flag indicating whether or not the advantageous section is executed up to the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games), and when the upper limit rank is "7", the advantageous section is continued upper limit number of games. (1500 games) indicates that it is set to be executed, and when the upper limit rank is "0", it indicates that the advantageous section is not set to be executed up to the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games). ..

When it is determined in step S197 that the upper limit rank is "7", the advantageous section is executed up to the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games), so the process proceeds to step S199 and the continuation counter is set to "2". That is, if the upper limit rank is "7" even if the continuous lottery is not won, the AT is continued.
On the other hand, when it is determined in step S197 that the upper limit rank is not "7", the process proceeds to step S198, and "1" (AT not continued) is stored in the continuation counter. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 34(a) is a flowchart showing the main game state 2 start time process in step S106 in FIG. FIG. 34(b) is a diagram showing a numerical table of upper limit rank lottery in step S213 in FIG. 34(a).
In FIG. 34(a), first, in step S211, it is determined whether or not the upper limit rank is "7". This is because when the upper limit rank is already “7”, the upper limit rank is not drawn. When it is determined that the upper limit rank is "7", the processing according to this flowchart is ended. On the other hand, when it is determined that the upper limit rank is not "7", the process proceeds to step S212.

In step S212, it is determined whether the story counter is "0". When the talk counter is "0", the process proceeds to step S213, and when it is determined that the talk counter is not "0", the process according to this flowchart is ended.
Here, the main game state 12 and the story counter "0" is the first game after winning 1BB during the fake omen (main game state 1) and ending the 1BB game. In this case, the lottery of the upper limit rank is executed. In addition to the step S213, the lottery for the upper limit rank is also executed in step S284 of FIG. 40 (main game state 2 all stop processing) described later.

And if it progresses to step S213, the lottery of an upper limit rank will be performed.
The lottery for the upper limit rank is executed based on the value of the CZ rank in the game, as shown in FIG. 34(b). For example, when the CZ rank is "0", the upper limit rank is not won. On the other hand, for example, when the CZ rank is "4", the upper limit rank is won with a probability of "32/256".

Then, the process proceeds to step S214, it is determined whether or not the upper limit rank is won. If it is determined that the upper limit rank is won, the process proceeds to step S215, and if the upper limit rank is not won, the process of this flowchart ends.
In step S215 (when the upper rank is won), “7” is stored in the upper rank storage area of the RWM 53. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 35 is a flow chart showing the main game state 13 start processing in step S107 of FIG. The main game state 13 corresponds to 1BB operation (game) without setting difference. Then, the processing of FIG. 35 is to execute CZ rank addition and lottery for the number of precursor games in the main game state 13.
First, in step S221, it is determined whether or not the CZ rank is "4". When it is determined that the CZ rank is "4", the processing according to this flowchart is ended. This is because the CZ rank addition lottery or the like is not executed when the CZ rank is already the highest value “4”. On the other hand, when it is determined that the CZ rank is not "4", the process proceeds to step S222.

In step S222, a CZ rank addition lottery is executed. This CZ addition lottery is the lottery process shown in FIG.
Next, in step S223, it is determined whether or not the state management counter is "0". The state management counter here indicates the number of precursor games. When it is determined that the state management counter is "0", the processing according to this flowchart is ended. On the other hand, when it is determined that the state management counter is not "0", the process proceeds to step S224.

In step S224, predictor counter addition lottery 1 to 4 are performed.
Here, the “symptom counter addition lottery” is a lottery to determine whether or not to add the number of aura games, and to add the winning aura game count to the current number of aura games. The precursor counter addition lottery will be described later.
Next, the process proceeds to step S225, and the lottery result of step S224, that is, the number of predictive games won (the number of predictive games to be added) is added to the state management counter. For example, if the state management counter before step S224 is "5" and if the lottery in step S224 wins "1", the process of updating the state management counter to "6" is executed in step S225.

Next, in step S226, it is determined whether or not the state management counter is "15" or more. In the present embodiment, when the state management counter becomes “15” or more, it is assumed that the AT with the highest continuation rate is won. When it is determined that the state management counter is “15” or more, the process proceeds to step S227, and when it is determined that the state management counter is not “15” or more, the process according to this flowchart ends.

In step S227, "4" is set in the CZ rank. Specifically, when the CZ rank up to that point is other than "4", it is rewritten to "4". Next, in step S228, "0" is set in the state management counter. In this way, when the AT continuation rate reaches the highest CZ rank "4", the state management is performed in order to shift to the main game state 2 (AT) without performing the precursor (main game state 1). A process of setting a counter (number of precursor games) to "0" is executed. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

As can be seen from the processing of FIG. 35, when the CZ rank reaches the maximum value of “4”, the CZ rank addition lottery is not executed. Also, regardless of the current CZ rank, when the state management counter reaches "15", "4" is set as the CZ rank. Therefore, even if the current CZ rank is "0" (AT non-win), the state management counter may be "15" and the CZ rank may be set to "4".

As described above, in the main game state 13 (no setting difference during 1BB game), the CZ rank addition lottery is executed on condition that the CZ rank is not "4" for each game, and the state management counter is not "0". On the condition that the sign counter addition lottery is executed.
Further, in the main game state 13, the AT winning expectation degree is displayed on the image display device 23 based on the precursor counter value.
The image display device 23 shown in FIG. 3 displays a meter. The meters are classified into 0 to 15, and the higher the AT winning expectation, the higher the number of meters. Therefore, the main control board 50 transmits the state management counter value to each game and the sub control board 80. The sub-control board 80 determines the number of meters and their colors based on the state management counter value and displays the image.

When shifting to the main game state 13, for example, in the initial stage, an effect of increasing the meter for each game (regardless of the state management counter value) is output. For example, raise the meter when you win the small role H (small role ALL). Then, basically, the meter is raised so that "state management counter value=number of meters". Further, the color of the meter is controlled so as to be changed as "white->blue->yellow->green->red->rainbow (at CZ rank "4") as the meter rises.
When the state management counter reaches "15" (when "Yes" in step S226 in FIG. 35), the CZ rank="4" is determined (the AT has the highest continuation rate). Shows that the number of meters of the image display device 23 is "15" (MAX), the color of the meter is rainbow, and the CZ rank is "4" (it was the AT winning with the highest continuation rate). Notify the player.

As shown in FIG. 42(a), which will be described later, as a process for completely stopping the main game state 13, at the end of 1BB operation, that is, at the final game of the main game state 13, a lottery for subtracting the state management counter (precursor correction lottery) ) Is executed (when the state management counter≠“0”). In the present embodiment, the longer the number of precursor games is, the higher the expectation of AT winning is set. However, the smaller the number of precursor games is, the less the medal consumption of the player is. Because it is in a state), the number of precursor games is shortened by lottery. Even when the number of precursor games is shortened, the number of meters is not reduced.

Then, when the main game state 13 is ended and the main game state 1 (precursor) is entered, an effect that raises the AT winning expectation is output according to each game and the number of meters.
Here, as shown in FIG. 32, the CZ rank addition lottery process is performed even in the main game state 1. And, for example, when the CZ rank was "0" when the game was transferred to the main game state 1, when the CZ rank was "1" or more by the CZ rank addition lottery during the game in the main game state 1, the meter was displayed. By adding numbers, etc., the final effect is changed from the AT non-winning effect to the AT winning effect.

FIG. 36 is a diagram showing a numerical table of the precursor counter addition lottery 1 to 4 executed in step S224 of FIG. The precursor counter addition lottery includes four types of precursor counter addition lottery 1 to 4, depending on the current CZ rank and the state management counter value. Then, the number of additions is determined according to the condition device that operates in the game.
For example, when the CZ rank is “0” and the state management counter is less than “10”, the precursor counter addition lottery 1 is executed. In this case, for example, when the winning number "21" is won in the game and the condition device of the small hand I (BB medium weak rare) is activated, "1" is selected with a probability of "240/256". “2” is selected with a probability of 16/256”.

In the main game state 13 (1BBB or 1BBC game playing), the winning numbers “20” (small winning combination H) to “22” (small winning combination J) are drawn, but the winning device has a low winning probability (high rarity). The higher the number of additions, the easier it is to set. In addition, when the state management counter value is less than "10" rather than "10", a large number of additions is easily selected.

FIG. 37 is a flow chart showing the process at start of the main game state 14 in step S108 of FIG. The main game state 14 corresponds to a 1BB (1BBB or 1BBC) game in which there is no setting difference won in the advantageous section.
In the main game state 14, every game, at the start of the game, the additional lottery shown in step S241 is performed. This lottery is similar to step S194 in FIG. 33(a), and is executed based on the numerical table shown in FIG. 33(b). In the 1BBB or 1BBC game, as shown in FIG. 16, the winning numbers “20” (small winning combination H) to “22” (small winning combination J) are drawn, so the condition device corresponding to the winning number is activated. When the number of AT games is increased, a lottery is executed. For example, when the small winning combination J is won, "30" is selected with a winning probability of "85/256", and "50" is selected with a winning probability of "85/256". Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended. As a result, in the main gaming state 14, each game and the number of AT games to be added will be executed.

The number of additional AT games determined in the main gaming state 14 is added to the number of games "40" in the first AT1 set when the main gaming state 14 is completed and the main gaming state 2 is entered. For example, in the case of the main game state 2 and the talk counter "5", it is assumed that the main game state 14 is entered and the number of additions of the AT game number is determined to be "30". In this case, when the main game state 14 is ended and the main game state 12 is entered to shift to the main game state 2, one set AT with the talk number counter "6" is started, but the talk number counter "6" is set. The number of AT games in “” is set to “40+30=70”.

FIG. 38(a) is a flowchart showing the main game state 0 all stop processing in step S125 in FIG. Further, FIG. 38B is a diagram showing a numerical table of the precursor counter lottery in step S252 of FIG.
As shown in FIG. 28, this process is a main game state 0 all stop process in the advantageous section type 2. Therefore, it is a complete stop process during the 2BB game.

First, in step S251, it is determined whether the 2BB operation has ended. Since the ending condition of the 2BB operation is the payout of more than one medal, the ending condition of the 2BB operation is satisfied when any small winning combination is won in the game. On the other hand, when the condition device of the replay C or D is activated in the game and the replay 05 is won, it is determined that the operation end condition of 2BB is not satisfied because the medal is not paid out in the game.
If it is determined that the 2BB operation end condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S252, and if the 2BB operation end condition is not satisfied, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

In step S252, a lottery of a precursor counter (number of precursor games) is executed. The precursor counter lottery is determined according to whether or not the CZ rank is “0”, as shown in FIG. 38(b). The expected value of the precursor counter when the CZ rank is “0” is about “8.6”, and the expected value of the precursor counter when the CZ rank is “1” or more is about “11.0”. Is. Therefore, when the AT is won, the expected number of predictive game times is larger than when the AT is not won.

In the next step S253, the number of predictive games determined in the predictive counter lottery is set in the state management counter. Next, proceeding to step S254, "1" is set in the main game state. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.
The total value of the aura game number determined here and “5” set in step S38 of FIG. 23(a) is the number of games in the main game state 1 (aura).

FIG. 39 is a flowchart showing the main game state 1 all stop process in step S126 of FIG.
First, in step S261, it is determined whether or not the state management counter is "0". When the state management counter is "0", the process proceeds to step S262, and when it is not "0", the process according to this flowchart ends.
In step S262, it is determined whether the CZ rank is "0". When it is determined that the CZ rank is "0", the process proceeds to step S263, and when it is determined that the CZ rank is not "0", the process proceeds to step S264.

In step S264, "2" is set as the main game state. That is, when the number of games has ended in the main game state 1 (symptom) (state management counter = "0") and the CZ rank is not "0" (AT winning), the main game state 2 (AT ).
Next, proceeding to step S265, "40" is set in the state management counter. This value becomes the initial value of the number of games played in one set AT. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

On the other hand, it is determined in step S262 that the CZ rank is "0", and when the process proceeds to step S263, it is determined whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to 2BB has stopped on the activated line. When it is determined that the symbol combination corresponding to 2BB has stopped on the activated line, the processing according to this flowchart is ended. When it is determined in step S263 that the symbol combination corresponding to 2BB is not stopped on the activated line, the process proceeds to step S266. In step S266, it is determined whether 2BB is not operating. When it is determined that the 2BB is not operating, the process proceeds to step S268 to clear various parameters regarding the advantageous section. That is, the advantageous section ends in the game. This is because when the state management counter is “0”, the CZ rank is “0”, and the 2BB is not operating, the ending condition of the main gaming state 1 (advantageous section) is satisfied. The process of step S268 is the same as the process of step S166 of FIG. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

Further, when it is determined in step S266 that the 2BB is not in operation (the 2BB is in operation), the process proceeds to step S267 and it is determined whether or not the 2BB operation is ended in the game. For example, when more than one medal is paid out in the game, it is determined that the operation of 2BB is completed. When it is determined that the operation of 2BB is finished, the process proceeds to step S268 to clear various parameters regarding the advantageous section, and the process according to this flowchart is finished. On the other hand, in step S267, when it is determined that the operation of 2BB is not finished in the game, the process according to this flowchart is finished.

FIG. 40 is a flowchart showing the main game state 2 all stop processing in step S127 of FIG.
First, in step S281, three-branch processing is executed according to the continuation counter value. When the continuation counter is "0", the process according to this flowchart is ended, and when the continuation counter is "1" (AT not continued), the process proceeds to step S282, and the continuation counter is "2" (AT continued). If so, the process proceeds to step S283.

In step S282, similar to step S268 of FIG. 39 described above, all parameters of the advantageous section are cleared. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.
When the continuation counter is "2" and the process proceeds to step S283, it is determined whether or not the upper limit rank is "7". If it is determined that the upper limit rank is "7", then the flow proceeds to step S287. On the other hand, if it is determined that the upper limit rank is not "7", then the flow proceeds to step S284. In step S284, a lottery for the upper limit rank is executed. The lottery of the upper limit rank here is the same as step S213 of FIG. 34(a) and FIG. 34(b).

Then, in the next step S285, it is determined whether or not the upper rank is won. If it is determined that the player has won the upper limit rank, the process proceeds to step S286, and if it is determined that the player has not been won, the process proceeds to step S287.
In step S286, the upper limit rank is set to "7". Then, the process proceeds to step S287.
The battle ending process of step S287 is a process shown in FIG. 47, and is a process of updating the talk number counter, the main game state, and the like when one set of AT is completed. After this battle end processing, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

FIG. 41 is a flowchart showing the all-stop processing for the main game state 12 in step S128 in FIG.
In this processing, the battle ending processing is executed in step S291, and the processing according to this flowchart is ended.
As described above, the main game state 12 is a main game state consisting of one game executed after the end of the main game state 14 or 15 (1BB game). In the total stop process of the main game state 12, the battle end process is executed as in step S287 of FIG. By this processing, the story counter is set to "+1". Therefore, when the player wins 1BB in the middle of the main game state 2 (AT), shifts to the main game state 14 or 15, and then finishes the 1BB game and shifts to the main game state 12, the story counter is updated. It Further, the main gaming state is also updated.
In addition, in the battle ending process, except for the case of shifting to the main game state 16, the main game state 2, that is, the effect of shifting to AT (AT introduction effect) and the like are output.

FIG. 42(a) is a flow chart showing an overall stop process of the main game state 13 in step S129 in FIG. 42(b) is a diagram showing a table of numbers in the precursor correction lottery in step S307 of FIG. 42(a).
As shown in FIG. 20, the main gaming state 13 is the main gaming state when the setting-free 1BB is won in the non-advantageous section and the 1BB operation is started (advantageous section type 2).
In FIG. 42(a), first, in step S301, it is determined whether or not the 1BB operation has been completed. When it is determined that the operation of 1BB is not completed, the process according to this flowchart is completed. When it is determined that the operation of 1BB is completed, the process proceeds to step S302. That is, the process after step S302 is a process in the 1BB operation end game (the final game in the main game state 13).

In step S302, the main game state 1 is set.
In the next step S303, it is determined whether or not the CZ rank exceeds "0". When it is determined that the CZ rank exceeds "0", the process proceeds to step S304, and when it is determined that the CZ rank does not exceed "0" (CZ rank "0"), the process according to this flowchart ends.
When it is determined that the CZ rank exceeds "0" and the process proceeds to step S304, it is determined whether the state management counter is "0". When it is determined that the state management counter is "0", that is, the number of precursor games is "0", the process proceeds to step S305, and the main game state "2" is set. This is because when the state management counter is "0", the main game state 1 (precursor) is not moved but the main game state 2 (AT) is moved. Note that the state management counter becomes "0" at this time when the CZ rank is set to "4" (steps S226 to S28 in FIG. 35). Next, in step S306, "40" is set in the status management counter. “40” set here is the initial value of the number of games in the AT1 set. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the state management counter is not "0" in step S304, the process proceeds to step S307. In step S307, a sign correction lottery is executed.
Here, the "symptom correction lottery" is to perform a lottery for subtracting the number of aura games at the present time. For example, if the current number of aura games is "10" and "2" is won in the aura correction lottery, the number of aura games is updated to "10-2=8".
The precursor correction lottery is executed by the number shown in FIG. 42(b). The expected value of the correction value (decrease value) of the predictive game count based on this number is about “1.3”.

After the precursor correction lottery is executed, the process proceeds to step S308, and it is determined whether the lottery result in step S307 is smaller than the state management counter value. If it is determined that it is smaller, the process proceeds to step S309, and if it is determined that it is not smaller, the process according to this flowchart is ended. In step S309, the lottery result is subtracted from the state management counter value. Then, the value is stored in the state management counter.
On the other hand, when it is determined in step S307 that the lottery result is equal to or larger than the state management counter value, the process according to this flowchart is ended.

As described above, in the final game of the main game state 13 (1BBB or 1BBC game), the CZ rank is "1" or more, that is, it is decided to move to the AT, and the state management is the number of omen games of this omen. When the counter is not "0", a lottery for shortening the number of precursor games is executed. As a result, the number of aura games is randomly changed, and it is possible to make it difficult to estimate the AT notification timing (aura end timing).
In addition, when the CZ counter is "0" and a fake omen is entered, the number of omen games is not shortened.

Further, in the main gaming state 13, the precursor counter addition lottery is executed as the start process (FIG. 35), and the precursor correction lottery is executed as the all stop process. If the number of predictive games is determined in this way, the number of predictive games becomes more diversified, and it can be difficult to estimate whether or not the AT is won from the number of predictive games.

FIG. 43 is a flowchart showing the main game state 14 all stop processing in step S130 of FIG.
In FIG. 43, in step S321, it is determined whether the 1BB operation is completed. If it is determined that the 1BB operation has ended, the process proceeds to step S322, and if it is determined that the 1BB operation has not ended, the processing according to this flowchart ends.
In step S322, the main game state 12 is set. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.
Therefore, since the main game state 12 is set in the final game of the main game state 14, the next game is a game in the main game state 12.

FIG. 44 is a flowchart showing the main game state 15 all stop processing in step S131 of FIG.
In FIG. 44, in step S331, it is determined whether the 1BB operation is completed. If it is determined that the 1BB operation is completed, the process proceeds to step S332, and if it is determined that the 1BB operation is not completed, the process according to this flowchart is ended.
In step S332, the main game state 12 is set. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.
Therefore, since the main game state 12 is set in the final game of the main game state 15, the next game is a game in the main game state 12.

45 is a flowchart showing the continuous lottery process (continuous lottery process executed in the final game of one set AT) in step S195 of FIG. FIG. 46 is a diagram showing a table of numbers when executing the individual continuous lottery and the common continuous lottery in the continuous lottery process.
First, in step S341, the comparison value A is set to "0". The comparison value A and a comparison value B described later are stored in a predetermined area of the RWM 53 or a predetermined register.
Next, in step S442, it is determined whether or not the condition device targeted for the individual continuous lottery has operated. Here, the condition device which is the target of the individual continuous lottery is, as shown in FIG. 46, 2BB, SB, a small combination A, a small combination B, a small combination C, a small combination D, a small combination E, and a 2BB game. Replay D and SB. If it is determined that these condition devices are activated, the process proceeds to step S343, and if it is determined that they are not activated, the process proceeds to step S345.

In step 343, individual continuous lottery is performed. This individual continuous lottery is executed with the winning probability of the number table shown in FIG. 46 according to the operated condition device. For example, when the small winning combination A is won, there is a probability of "32/256" and the winning is "1". Next, proceeding to step S344, the individual lottery result is stored in the comparison value A. For example, when "1" is won in step S344, "1" is stored in the comparison value A.

In the next step S345, a common continuous lottery is executed. The common continuous lottery is a continuous lottery regardless of the operating condition device, and is executed based on the CZ rank as shown in FIG. For example, when the CZ rank in the game is “2”, the probability of “154/256” is “1”. Next, proceeding to step S346, the common lottery result is stored in the comparison value B. As a result, the comparison value A stores the individual continuous lottery result, and the comparison value B stores the common continuous lottery result.

Then, in the next step S347, it is determined whether or not the comparison value A is larger than the comparison value B. When it is determined that the comparison value A is greater than the comparison value B, the process proceeds to step S348, and when it is determined that the comparison value A is not greater than the comparison value B, the process proceeds to step S349.
In step S348, the comparison value A is set in the continuous lottery result. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended. On the other hand, in step S349, the comparison value B is set in the continuous lottery result. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

By the above processing, when the individual continuous lottery result (comparison value A) based on the condition device is larger than the common continuous lottery result (comparison value B) not based on the condition device, the comparison value A is selected as the continuous lottery result. R. On the other hand, when the individual continuous lottery result (comparison value A) based on the condition device is less than or equal to the common continuous lottery result (comparison value B) not based on the condition device, the comparison value B is selected as the continuous lottery result.
Therefore, the continuous lottery is executed even if the condition device does not operate (even if the winning number corresponding to the condition device for which the individual continuous lottery is executed is not won). Further, when the condition device for executing the individual continuous lottery operates, the individual continuous lottery is executed in addition to the common continuous lottery. When the result of this individual continuous lottery is less than or equal to the common continuous lottery result, the common continuous lottery result is selected, so there is no disadvantage due to the execution of the individual continuous lottery. Furthermore, when the condition device for executing the individual continuous lottery operates and the individual continuous lottery is executed, the final continuous lottery result does not become less than the common lottery result.
Therefore, if the individual continuous lottery is executed, it is more advantageous to the player, and even if the individual lottery result is not executed, it is not disadvantageous to the player.
Then, when the continuous lottery result stored (selected) in the continuous lottery process is “0”, it is determined as non-win in step S196 of FIG. 33, and when the continuous lottery result is “1”, the result of FIG. In step S196, it is determined that the player has won.

FIG. 47 is a flowchart showing the battle ending process in step S287 of FIG. 40 or step S291 of FIG.
First, in step S361, the talk counter is incremented by "1". Next, proceeding to step S362, it is determined whether or not the talk number counter has reached "22". When it is determined that the talk counter is "22", the process proceeds to step S363, and when it is determined that the talk counter has not reached "22", the process proceeds to step S364.
In step S363, "16" is set as the main game state. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

On the other hand, in step S364, "2" is set as the main game state. Until then, when in the main game state 2, the main game state 2 is maintained. Next, proceeding to step S365, "40" is set in the state management counter. This value corresponds to the game number initial value of one set AT. Next, proceeding to step S366, "0" is set in the continuation counter. This is a process of clearing the continuation counter to "0" before the start of one set AT. Then, the processing according to this flowchart is ended.

Next, the relationship between the ending effect, AT, and 1BB operation and effect will be described.
In addition, during the output of the ending effect, it is in the advantageous section and AT.
48 to 50 are time charts for explaining effect contents during AT or BB game, and show pattern 0 (FIG. 48) to pattern 5 (FIG. 50).
Further, in FIGS. 48 to 50, BB1 indicates BB with a setting difference and corresponds to 1BBA of the present embodiment. Further, BB2 indicates BB with no setting difference, and corresponds to 1BBB and 1BBC of the present embodiment.
In the present embodiment, when the talk counter reaches "22" and shifts to the main game state 16, the remaining number of games of AT (advantageous section) is "88" (advantageous section clear counter = "88"). When it becomes, the ending production is output. This ending effect is output with priority over the effect during the 1BB game.
Further, as effects during the 1BB game, BB1 effects and BB2 effects are provided.
The BB1 effect corresponds to an effect during 1BBA (1BB with a setting difference) game, and is an effect when the additional effect of the AT game number is not executed. Display images to explain.
On the other hand, the BB2 effect is an effect capable of executing an additional effect of the number of AT games, and corresponds to an effect during the 1BBB or 1BBC (1BB without setting difference) game. For example, when the conditional device to be added is operated, whether or not the addition is made, the number of additions when the addition is made, and the like are displayed in an image.

In FIG. 48, pattern 0 shows an example in which the BB (any one of 1BBA to 1BBC) is won during the ending effect, and the 1BB game ends during the ending effect. As described above, after shifting to the main game state 16, the main game state 16 is maintained during the 1BB game and the ending effect is continued. When winning 1BB during the ending effect, the player is notified of the fact that 1BB has been won and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 1BB.
In addition, the final game of the ending effect, or the AT end effect is executed for a few games retroactively from the final game.
After the AT end effect, the non-advantageous section (normal section) is entered, so the mode is switched to the normal effect.

Pattern 1 of FIG. 48 shows an example in which BB2 (no setting difference BB) is won during the ending effect, but the BB2 game based on BB2 continues even after the advantageous section and AT ends. When the player wins BB2 during the ending effect, the player is notified of the fact that he/she has won BB2 and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning BB2, as described above. Then, even when the BB2 game is started, the ending effect is continued.

The ending effect continues until the number of games in the advantageous section is "1500" (advantageous section clear counter = "0"), and after the AT and the advantageous section are completed (after the ending effect is finished), the game is switched to the BB1 game effect. Here, even if the player wins BB2 during the ending effect, no additional lottery or the like is executed during the BB2 game, so the BB1 game effect is output.
Then, just before the end of the BB1 game effect (BB2 game), the AT end effect is executed. At this point, AT is actually finished, but AT ending production is not executed during the BB2 game, which is the ending production, and when the BB1 game production is finished (the BB2 game is finished). Since it is preferable to execute the AT end effect as the flow of the effect, the effect is controlled as in pattern 1.

Pattern 2 of FIG. 49 is an example in which BB2 is won during the ending effect, but BB2 wins after the ending effect (advantageous section and AT) ends and the BB2 game is executed. In the present embodiment, when the BB is won during the AT and ending production, even if the BB wins after the ending production, the BB game is the BB game in AT. For this reason, the BB is won before the AT and ending effects are finished, but if the BB is not winning at the time of finishing the AT, the BB2 winning decision effect is output. The BB2 winning confirmation effect is, for example, an effect of informing the player of the winning BB2 symbol combination. Then, when the game is transferred to the BB2 game by winning the BB2, the effect in this BB2 game becomes the BB1 game effect as in the case of executing the BB game during the ending effect.

When the player notices that BB2 is won during the ending production, the player does not intentionally win the BB2 until the ending production is finished, and the player is awarded when BB2 is won after the ending production (advantageous section and AT) is finished. The reason why advantageous lottery or the like is executed is not preferable.
Therefore, when the game winning BB2 is in the ending production, the lottery related to AT is not performed. On the other hand, when the BB2 is won during the normal section after the ending effect is finished, it goes without saying that the section shifts to the advantageous section again.
In the example of pattern 2, the BB1 game effect is switched to the AT end effect in the final game of the BB2 game or in a number of games just before the end. Further, when the BB2 game is over, the next game is switched to the normal effect.

Pattern 3 in FIG. 49 shows an example when the number of games in the advantageous section reaches the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games) without outputting the ending effect (before the talk counter=“22”). There is. For example, when the number of games added during AT is large, the number of games in the advantageous section may reach "1500" before the talk counter reaches "22".
Pattern 3 shows a case in which the player wins BB2 before the advantageous section clear counter reaches “0” and the number of games in the advantageous section reaches “1500” during the BB2 game. In this way, when the ending production is not being performed, when the game shifts to the BB2 game based on the winning of BB2, the BB2 game production is output. However, since the number of remaining games in the advantageous section is small, the additional lottery for the AT games is not executed during the BB2 game. As the control of such an example, for example, the advantageous section clear counter at the time of starting the BB2 game is determined, and when it is equal to or less than a predetermined value, it is controlled not to execute the lottery for adding the AT game number in the BB2 game. Can be mentioned.

It is also possible to continue outputting the BB2 game effect from the start of the BB2 game and switch to the BB1 game effect after the end of the advantageous section (and AT). However, from the flow of production, it is preferable to continue the BB2 game production.
Then, just before the end of the BB2 game, the AT end effect is output in the same manner as patterns 0 to 2, and after the end of the BB2 game, the normal effect is switched to.

Pattern 4 of FIG. 50 is an example in which BB2 is won during the AT and the advantageous section, but BB2 wins after executing the AT and the advantageous section and the BB2 game is executed. As described above, although BB2 is won during AT, even if the BB2 is won and the BB2 game is executed after the AT ends, the lottery related to the AT is not executed in the BB2 game. Therefore, during the BB2 game, the BB1 game effect is executed.
In the example of pattern 4, the BB2 is won during AT, the BB2 winning confirmation effect is output within the game or the number of games thereof, and the AT ends during the BB2 winning confirmation effect. In such a case, the BB2 winning confirmation effect is output until the BB2 is won, and when the BB2 is won, the BB1 game effect is switched to. Further, the AT end effect is output from the final game of the BB2 game or before the number of the games. When the BB2 game is over, the next game is switched to the normal effect. With this configuration, the AT end effect can be output without causing the effect continuity to be unnatural.

Pattern 5 in FIG. 50 is a diagram showing an example when the player wins BB2 in the main game state 16 and shifts to the BB2 game. In the present embodiment, after shifting to the main gaming state 16, even if any 1BB is won, the main gaming state is not shifted and the main gaming state 16 is maintained. In this case, when BB2 is won and the BB2 game is executed, the BB1 game effect is executed as the effect corresponding to the BB2 game. In the main game state 16, since it is decided to execute up to 1500 games, which is the upper limit number of continuation of the advantageous section (and AT), the AT game number is not added and the BB2 game effect is not output.
Moreover, when the BB2 game is over, the game is switched to the AT effect again. When the output condition for the ending effect is satisfied, the ending effect is switched to.
In addition, when switching from the AT effect to the ending effect, the ending introduction effect may be output for one to several games.

<Second Embodiment>
FIG. 52(a) is a flowchart showing the continuous lottery process in the second embodiment, and FIG. 52(b) is a diagram showing the condition device and the number table in the continuous lottery process. FIG. 52A is a flowchart corresponding to FIG. 45 in the first embodiment.
In the first embodiment, the lottery result of the comparison value A and the lottery result of the comparison value B are obtained, and the two are compared to determine the lottery result. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the lottery result is determined by one continuous lottery. As described above, the continuous lottery of the present invention is not limited to the plural lottery as in the first embodiment.

In FIG. 52A, in step S381, "1" is set as the lottery number. Next, proceeding to step S342, it is determined whether or not the condition device targeted for the lottery in the game has operated. As shown in FIG. 52(b), the condition devices to be selected by lottery are 2BB (2BBA to 2BBC), small winning part C (strong cherry), small winning part D (weak cherry), and small winning part E (watermelon A). is there.
When it is determined that these condition devices are operating, the process proceeds to step S383, and when it is determined that the condition devices are not operating, the process proceeds to step S384.
In step S383, a lottery number corresponding to the operating condition device is set. As shown in FIG. 52B, for example, "3" is set when the small winning combination C is operated, and "2" is set when the small winning combination D is operated.

In the next step S384, continuous lottery is executed. Here, the lottery based on the number table is executed according to the lottery number. For example, when the small winning combination C is activated, the lottery number is "3", and therefore the lottery for selecting "1" with a probability of "256/256" is executed. In addition, when the condition device is not operating in the game, based on the lottery number "1" set in step S381, there is a probability of "32" and "1" (with a probability of "224/256". A lottery for selecting "0") is executed. Then, in step S385, the continuous lottery result (“0” or “1”) is stored in a predetermined storage area of the RWM 53.

If the continuous lottery is performed as described above, it is possible to receive the continuous lottery (common continuous lottery) even if the game is not in the condition of the specific condition device being activated (for example, a game that is not won as a winning combination), and it is also possible to win the continuous lottery. It will be possible. Further, in the game when the specific condition device is operating, it is possible to receive the continuous lottery under a more advantageous condition than the game when the specific condition device is not operating.
Further, the continuous lottery result determined by the lottery can be immediately stored in the RWM 53 without comparing the continuous lottery result as in the first embodiment, so that the program can be simplified and the processing time can be shortened. You can

<Third Embodiment>
FIG. 53 is a diagram showing a small winning combination control during 2BB operation in the third embodiment, (a) is a symbol combination of small winning combinations 01 to 02 in the third embodiment, and (b) is a push. It is a figure which shows the winning rate of the small win for every order.
Note that, in FIG. 53, only the minimum small winning combination for explaining the control during the 2BB operation is illustrated, but other small winning combinations and replays of the third embodiment are set so as to be different from those of the first embodiment. ..
In the first embodiment, under the condition of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, "PB=1" is used to win either the small win (13) or the small win (12). .. On the other hand, in the third embodiment, the small winning combination that can be won during the operation of 2BB is the small winning combination 01 or 02, and there are 13 winning combinations. Then, the reel 31 is stop-controlled so that the small win 01 or 02 may be missed.

First, in the pushing order 123 (middle left and right), when the left first stop, "watermelon A" has the first priority, and when "watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line, the second priority is " Stop the "bell" on the active line. The ratio of "Watermelon A" or "Bell" stopping on the active line at the first stop on the left is
Watermelon A: 15/20
Bell: 5/20
Is.

At the time of the middle stop after the first stop on the left side, the "watermelon A" is controlled to stop on the effective line. In addition, in the first embodiment, when the 14th “watermelon A” on the middle reel 31 is pressed, the 15th “watermelon B” is controlled to be stopped on the effective line, but in the third embodiment, Since there is no small win in which the symbol of the middle reel 31 is “watermelon B” in the small wins 01 and 02, when the 14th “watermelon A” of the middle reel 31 is pressed, Stop A" on the active line.
When "Watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line, either "bell" or "cherry" is stopped on the activated line.

From the above, after the left first stop, the stop symbol on the activated line when the middle reel 31 is stopped,
1st bit: Bell (1st)
2nd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
3rd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
4th bit: Cherry (5th)
5th bitter: Cherry (5th)
6th bit: Bell (6th)
No. 7 bitter: Watermelon A (No. 8)
8th bitter: Watermelon A (8th)
9th bit: Cherry (10th)
10th bit: Cherry (10th)
11th Vita: Bell (11th)
12th bitter: Watermelon A (13th)
13th Vita: Watermelon A (13th)
14th Vita: Watermelon A (14th)
15th bit: Bell (16th)
16th Vita: Bell (16th)
17th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
18th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
19th Vita: Cherry (0th)
No. 0 bitter: Cherry (No. 0)
Becomes

Therefore, after the first stop on the left, the ratio of the symbols stopped on the activated line when the middle reel 31 is stopped is
Watermelon A: 9/20
Bell: 5/20
Cherry: 6/20
Becomes
When the vehicle is stopped right after the first left stop, "watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-"rotating", "watermelon A" is stopped on the active line.
The proportion in this case is
Watermelon A: 15/20
Bell: 5/20
Becomes
On the other hand, when it is not in the stop type of "watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-"in rotation" (temple type of small win 02), the "bell" is stopped on the activated line.
The proportion in this case is
Bell: 20/20
Is.

From the above, the ratio of "watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-"watermelon A" (small win 02 of winning number "049") stopped on the activated line when the pushing order is 123 (left center right)
"15/20" (left) x "9/20" (middle) x "15/20" (right)
=2025/8000
Becomes
In addition, the rate at which "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "045") stops on the activated line is:
"5/20" (left) x "5/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=500/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, the rate at which the "bell"-"watermelon A"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "046") stops on the activated line is:
"5/20" (left) x "9/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=900/8000
Becomes

Furthermore, the rate at which the "bell"-"cherry"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "047") stops on the activated line is:
"5/20" (left) x "6/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=600/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, in the case of losing the role, firstly, in the case of "watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-"in rotation", "watermelon A" cannot be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. So
"15/20" (left) x "9/20" (middle) x "5/20" (right)
=675/8000
Becomes

Further, in the case of dropping the role, secondly, in the case of "watermelon A"-"in rotation"-"in rotation", it is when "watermelon A" cannot be stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. So
"15/20" (left) x "11/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=3300/8000
Becomes
Therefore,
"675/8000" + "3300/8000"
=3975/8000
Becomes
Therefore, when the pressing order is 12 o'clock, about half of the data is dropped.
Further, the above reel control is the same when the pushing order 132 (left and right middle), and the winning percentage and the dropout percentage of each small winning combination are the same as those when the pushing order is 123.

Next, in the pushing order 213 (middle left and right), "watermelon A" is given the first priority when the middle first stop is made, and second priority is given when "watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line. Stop the "bell", "cherry" or "replay A" on the active line. Here, at the time of the first stop in the middle, the "watermelon A" can be stopped at the effective line only when the bitter is pressed.

Therefore, the stop pattern on the effective line at the time of the first stop,
1st bit: Bell (1st)
2nd bit: Replay A (2nd)
3rd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
4th bit: Cherry (5th)
5th bitter: Cherry (5th)
6th bit: Bell (6th)
7th bit: Replay A (7th)
8th bitter: Watermelon A (8th)
9th bit: Cherry (10th)
10th bit: Cherry (10th)
11th Vita: Bell (11th)
12th Vita: Replay A (12th)
13th Vita: Watermelon A (13th)
14th Vita: Watermelon A (14th)
15th bit: Bell (16th)
16th Vita: Bell (16th)
17th Bit: Replay A (17th)
18th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
19th Vita: Cherry (0th)
No. 0 bitter: Cherry (No. 0)
Becomes
Therefore, the proportion of symbols that stop on the effective line is
Watermelon A: 5/20
Bell: 5/20
Cherry: 6/20
Replay A: 4/20
Becomes

When the "watermelon A" can be stopped on the activated line during the first stop, the left reel 31 and the right reel 31 are also controlled so that the "watermelon A" is stopped on the activated line. When the "watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line, the "bell" is controlled to be stopped on the activated line.
After stopping "Watermelon A" on the active line during the first stop, the rate at which "Watermelon A" can be stopped on the active line when the left reel 31 and the right reel 31 are stopped is
Watermelon A: 15/20
Is.
If the "watermelon A" cannot be stopped, the "bell" is stopped (ratio "5/20").

Further, when the "watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line during the first stop, the "bell" is controlled to be stopped on the activated line when the left reel 31 and the right reel 31 are stopped. ..
In this case, the rate at which the "bell" can be stopped on the active line is
Bell: 20/20
Is.
Further, after the left and middle reels 31 are stopped, at the time of the third stop on the right, when the small winning combination can be won, the symbol combination of the winning small winning combination is controlled to be stopped on the activated line.
From the above, the ratio of “watermelon A”-“watermelon A”-“watermelon A” to stop on the activated line when the pressing sequence is 213 (middle left/right) is:
"15/20" (left) x "5/20" (middle) x "15/20" (right)
= 1125/8000
Becomes

Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"bell"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "045") stops on the activated line is:
"20/20" (left) x "5/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
= 2000/8000

Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"watermelon A"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "046") stops on the activated line is:
"5/20" (left) x "5/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=500/8000
Becomes

In addition, the ratio of "bell"-"cherry"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "047") on the activated line is
"20/20" (left) x "6/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
=2400/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, the rate at which "bell"-"replay A"-"bell" (small win 01 with the winning number "048") stops on the activated line is:
"20/20" (left) x "4/20" (middle) x "20/20" (right)
= 1600/8000
Becomes

Further, in the case of missing the role, firstly, in the case of "watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-"in rotation", it is when "watermelon A" cannot be stopped when the right reel 31 is stopped. ,
"15/20" (left) x "5/20" (middle) x "5/20" (right)
=375/8000
Becomes
Therefore, when the pressing order is 213 o'clock, the small winning combination is dropped at a rate of "375/8000".
Further, the above reel control is the same in the pushing order 231 (middle right left), and the winning percentage and the dropout percentage of each small winning combination are the same as in the pushing sequence 213.

Next, in the pushing order 321 (right middle left), when the right first stop, "watermelon A" has the first priority, and when "watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line, it has the second priority. Stop the "bell" on the active line. Therefore, the ratio of "Watermelon A" or "Bell" stopping on the active line at the first stop on the left is
Watermelon A: 15/20
Bell: 5/20
Is.

After stopping the "watermelon A" at the first stop on the right side, the "watermelon A" is controlled to stop at the effective line at the middle second stop. Similar to the left first stop, "Watermelon A" can be stopped only when pressing Vita or moving one symbol, and when "Watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the activated line, "Bell" or "Cherry" Either of them is stopped at the effective line.
From the above, after the right first stop (watermelon A), the stop symbol on the activated line when the middle reel 31 is stopped is
1st bit: Bell (1st)
2nd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
3rd bitter: Watermelon A (3rd)
4th bit: Cherry (5th)
5th bitter: Cherry (5th)

17th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
18th Vita: Watermelon A (18th)
19th Vita: Cherry (0th)
No. 0 bitter: Cherry (No. 0)
Becomes
Therefore, the proportion of symbols that stop on the effective line is
Watermelon A: 9/20
Bell: 5/20
Cherry: 6/20
Becomes

When the left stop is performed after the first right stop, the "watermelon A" is stopped on the effective line, and when the "watermelon A" cannot be stopped on the effective line, the "bell" is stopped on the effective line.
The proportion in this case is
Watermelon A: 15/20
Bell: 5/20
Is.
Further, when the "rotating"-"watermelon A"-"watermelon A" stop type (temple type of small win 02) is not set, the "bell" is stopped on the activated line. The proportion in this case is
Bell: 20/20
Is.

From the above, in the pushing order 321 (right center left), the ratio of "watermelon A"-"watermelon A"-"watermelon A" to stop on the active line is
"15/20" (left) x "9/20" (middle) x "15/20" (right)
=2025/8000

"20/20" (left) x "6/20" (middle) x "5/20" (right)
=600/8000
Becomes
Furthermore, in the case of losing the winning combination, firstly, in the case of "in rotation"-"watermelon A"-"watermelon A", "watermelon A" cannot be stopped when the left reel 31 is stopped. So
"5/20" (left) x "9/20" (middle) x "15/20" (right)
=675/8000
Becomes

Further, in the case of losing the role, secondly, in the case of "in rotation"-"in rotation"-"watermelon A", it is when "watermelon A" cannot be stopped when the middle reel 31 is stopped. So
"20/20" (left) x "11/20" (middle) x "15/20" (right)
=3300/8000
Becomes
Therefore, the ratio of missing roles is
"675/8000" + "3300/8000"
=3975/8000
Becomes
Therefore, in the pressing order 321 o'clock, about half of the data is dropped.
Further, the above reel control is the same for the push order 312 (right, left, right), and the winning percentage and the missed percentage of each small win are the same as those for the push sequence 321.

As described above, in the third embodiment, a small winning combination may be missed (no payout) at a predetermined rate during the winning ALL during the 2BB operation.
At the left or right first stop, small wins are dropped at about half the rate, but at the middle first stop only small wins are dropped at a rate of "375/8000".
Therefore, it is most advantageous for the player to finish the game with the medium first stop during at least 2BB operation. Furthermore, if the pressing is accurate, 13 pieces can be won without fail, and the winning combination is not lost.
In the first embodiment as well, it is the same that the middle, left, and right pressing order is most advantageous to the player, and that 13 pieces can be certainly won if the pressing is accurate.

<Fourth Embodiment>
The fourth embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment.
In the first embodiment, in the main game state 0 (during 2BB game), the winning number “4” is won, and when the condition device of Replay D or SB is activated, the CZ rank addition lottery process is executed (FIG. 27). , FIG. 31). That is, excluding the SB operation, during the 2BB game, when the condition device of the replay D operates, the lottery regarding the AT is executed and the 2BB game is extended.
On the other hand, in the fourth embodiment, the CZ rank addition lottery (lottery related to AT) is not performed during the 2BB game, and the CZ rank addition lottery (lottery related to AT) is performed at the end of the 2BB game (end of the main game state 0). ).

FIG. 54 is a diagram showing the numbers in the CZ rank addition lottery at the end of the 2BB game in the fourth embodiment. In the fourth embodiment, the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the total number of games played during the 2BB game. As shown in FIG. 54, the larger the total number of 2BB games played, the easier it is to win "1" or more in the CZ rank addition lottery, and the easier it is to win a high CZ rank.
In the first embodiment, during the 2BB game, the CZ rank lottery is performed only when the condition device of the replay D or SB is activated. For this reason, for example, at the time of operation of Replay C, although it is a condition device that can be expected for the CZ rank addition lottery of the next game, it was not possible to receive the CZ rank addition lottery.
On the other hand, in the fourth embodiment, when the condition device of the replay C is activated, the number of games of the 2BB game increases, which is advantageous to the CZ rank addition lottery. For example, in the 2BB game, if the Replay C condition device operates in 4 games in succession, "3" or more (AT winning) is confirmed in the CZ rank addition lottery even if the condition device of Replay D has not operated even once. To do.

In the first embodiment, since the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the operation of the condition device in the 2BB game, the CZ rank addition lottery is executed when the replay D having no setting difference is executed, and the replay having the setting difference is executed. During the operation of C, the CZ rank addition lottery process was not executed.
On the other hand, in the fourth embodiment, the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the total number of games of the 2BB game. Therefore, even if the condition device of the replay C is activated during the 2BB game, the CZ rank addition lottery is advantageous. Become.
Therefore, the winning number “3” (replay C) has a setting difference, and the higher the setting, the higher the winning probability. Therefore, the higher the setting, the easier it is for the 2BB game to continue. That is, the higher the setting, the higher the winning probability of the CZ rank addition lottery (lottery related to AT).
Here, in the fourth embodiment, the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the total number of games of the 2BB game, but for example, only the number of operations of the condition device of Replay C, only the number of operations of the condition device of Replay D, or The CZ rank addition lottery may be executed based on the total value of the number of times of operation of the condition devices of the replays C and D (the CZ rank addition lottery may not be executed only with the winning ALL).

Further, in the fourth embodiment, the reel stop control is the same when the condition device of Replay C is operated and when the condition device of Replay D is operated. Therefore, Replay 05 will win regardless of which condition device of Replay is activated. Therefore, from the viewpoint of the player, it is not possible to know which replay condition device has operated only by the type of replay that has won.
In such a case, for example, even when performing the CZ rank lottery only by the number of times the condition device of Replay D is operated, the player cannot know whether or not the condition device of Replay D is being operated. Can't guess.
In particular, the replay C of the winning number “3” has a setting difference, but it is not possible to judge from the winning replay whether or not the condition device of the replay C is in operation, so that the set value cannot be estimated.

In the 2BB game, when the CZ rank addition lottery is executed based on the total number of times the condition devices of Replay C and D are operated, the number of operations of the condition device of Replay C and the number of operations of the condition device of Replay D are performed. Thus, instead of simply calculating the total, for example, the total may be calculated so as to give preferential treatment to the number of times of operation of the condition device of Replay D.
Specifically, when the number of operations of the condition device of Replay C is x and the number of operations of the condition device of Replay D is y,
"X+2xy"
May be calculated, and the CZ rank addition lottery may be executed with the number shown in FIG. 54 as the total number of games.

Further, the CZ rank addition lottery is not limited to be executed only at the end of the 2BB game, and the CZ rank addition lottery may be executed for each game based on the number table of FIG.
For example, in the first game, lottery is performed with the number of "total number of games once" in FIG. 54, and when the second game is executed, lottery is performed with the number of total games "2 times". To do. Then, at the end of the 2BB operation, the total value in the CZ rank addition lottery may be set to the CZ rank (when the CZ rank exceeds "4", it is set to "4").
In addition, in the case where each game lottery is performed, if "1" or more is won in the CZ rank addition lottery (when AT is won), from the next game, stock of AT set number, addition lottery of AT game number, sub-lottery, sub It is also possible to switch to the bonus lottery and additional special zones.

In addition, in the first embodiment, the condition for ending the 2BB game is set to obtain more than one medal. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, it may be set to obtain the number of coins in which at least a plurality of small wins can be won. In this case, the CZ rank addition lottery (lottery related to AT) can be executed based on the total number of 2BB games, the number of consecutive replays, the cumulative number of replays, and the like.
On the other hand, if it is possible to finish the 2BB game in one game and set the 2BB game to be finished with a small number of games as in the first embodiment, it is possible to make the setting determination difficult.

<Irregular stop processing>
Next, the process when the symbol combination assumed in the main control board 50 does not stop on the activated line during the stop control of the reel 31 (at the time of irregular stop) will be described.
The reel control means 65 of the main control board 50 drives and controls the motor (stepping motor) 32 so that the combination of the symbols corresponding to the winning combination is stopped on the effective line, based on the lottery result of the winning combination by the winning combination lottery means 61. , The reel 31 is stopped at a predetermined position. Therefore, normally, the stop position of the reel 31 always stops at a predetermined position.
However, for example, firstly, during stop control of the reel 31, for example, after detecting operation of the stop switch 42 and before stopping the reel 31 at the final position, specifically during deceleration of the reel 31. When the power is cut off, the power supply for driving the motor 32 is not supplied, and the power supply to the motor 32 may be cut off before the reel 31 is stopped. In such a case, even if the reel control means 65 controls the reel 31 to stop at the correct position, the correct stop control cannot be performed until the end, and the reel 31 may not stop at the predetermined position.

Secondly, when the reel control means 65 detects the operation of the stop switch 42, the reels 31 are stopped within the range where the maximum number of moving symbols is within 4 symbols except for the medium reel 31 which is operating 2BB, and 2BB is operating. For the inner reel 31, the reel 31 is stopped within a range in which the maximum number of moving symbols is within one symbol.
In addition, as described above, the reel 31 may be stopped by the bite.
On the other hand, when the motor 32 starts up (starts rotation) or stops, a slight delay or advance occurs on the motor shaft. This amount varies depending on the pulse speed, but if the pulse speed is high, the motor 32 may not be able to follow the pulse speed, and there is a risk of step out. As a result, there is a possibility that the reel 31 cannot be stopped at the predetermined position.
In addition, there is a possibility that the reel 31 may not stop at a predetermined position due to a failure or malfunction of the motor 32 or the reel 31.

However, when the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is normally stopped on the activated line due to the above-mentioned power failure or step out of the motor 32, etc., when the symbol combination does not stop, the appearance is apparent. Even if the stop position is determined and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination does not stop on the activated line, the player is disadvantageous if the medal corresponding to the winning combination is not paid out.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the stop switch 42 is operated based on the winning combination and the stop position determination table (further, the pressing order of the stop switch 42), the stop position of the reel 31 corresponding to the operation timing (symbol Number) is internally determined and stored. Here, the reel control means 65 drives and controls the motor 32 so as to stop the reel 31 at the determined (stored) position.
Then, after all the reels 31 have stopped, based on the stored stop positions (symbol numbers) of the reels 31 that have been stored, the symbol combinations that may be (apparently) stopped on the activated line (from the internally determined stop position) The winning combination is determined by using the defined symbol combination). In other words, the symbol combination is not determined based on the reel 31 that is actually stopped, and the winning determination is not performed.
Then, in the game in which the small winning combination is won as a result of the winning determination, the medals corresponding to the small winning combination are paid out. In addition, in a game in which a replay is won, a replay is given (automatic bet processing), and in a game in which a special role is won, setting of a special game and start processing of a special game are performed, and any role is played. In a game in which no prize is won, the payout of medals, the provision of a re-game, the start processing of a special game, etc. are not performed.

For example, when the winning number "1" is won, the condition device of Replay A operates in the game. In this case, when the last stop switch 42 is operated (at the operation timing at which the symbol corresponding to Replay 01 can be stopped), the symbol combination corresponding to Replay 01 is actually on the activated line after all reels 31 are stopped. The winning determination is performed using internal data without making a determination or confirmation as to whether or not the game is stopped. When the last stop switch 42 is operated, it is assumed that Replay 01 has won even if the symbol combination corresponding to apparently Replay 01 is not stopped, and after all reels 31 are stopped, medals are automatically inserted. To
Similarly, for example, when the winning number “8” is won in the game and the condition device of the small role A1 is activated in the game, the player operates the stop switch 42 in the pushing order of “left middle right”, When the last right stop switch 42 is operated (at the operation timing at which the symbol corresponding to the small winning combination 01 can be stopped), the symbol combination corresponding to the small winning combination 01 is actually on the activated line after all the reels 31 are stopped. Without determining or confirming whether or not it has stopped, the winning determination is performed using internal data. When the right stop switch 42 is operated, it is assumed that the small win 01 is won even if the symbol combination corresponding to the small win 01 is not stopped, and after the reels 31 are stopped, 11 pieces (non When activated) The payout of medals is executed.

By doing this, even if an irregular stop occurs, payout of medals corresponding to the winning combination and automatic insertion of medals (during replay operation) will be carried out without any disadvantage to the player. The game can be played smoothly.
In addition, for example, when the player wins 1BB in the game, 1BB can be won in the game, and the stop switch 42 is operated at the timing when the symbol combination corresponding to 1BB won by the player stops on the activated line. When the last stop switch 42 is operated, the internal operation is performed without determining or confirming whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to 1BB actually stops on the activated line after stopping all reels 31. The winning judgment is made using the data. When the final stop switch 42 is operated, it is assumed that 1BB is won even if the symbol combination corresponding to the appearance 1BB is not stopped, and 1BB is operated after all reels 31 are stopped.
Further, for example, in the game in which the winning number “17” is won, when the last stop switch 42 is operated at an operation timing in which any symbol combination corresponding to the small winning combination 15 or 16 cannot be stopped (in other words, When the stop switch 42 is operated at the operation timing at which the small winning combinations 15 and 16 are non-winning), even if the symbol combination corresponding to the small winning combinations 15 or 16 actually stops on the activated line after all reels 31 have stopped. , It is assumed that none of the roles has won a prize, and the payout of medals is not executed.
In the above, the last stop operation (third stop operation) has been described as an example. However, even if an irregular stop occurs during the first stop operation or the second stop operation, the appearance is similar to the above. Instead, the winning determination is made based on internal data.

Further, as a result of the winning determination based on the internal data, when it is determined that the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination has stopped on the activated line, after all reels 31 have stopped, the winning effect of the winning combination (by the effect lamp 21) By performing lighting at the time of winning, winning sound and payout sound from the speaker 22, winning effect by the image display device 23, etc., irregularity occurs and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination does not stop on the effective line. Even in such a case, the player can be internally informed that the winning is achieved by the effect.
Furthermore, in the final game when the accessory is operated, by performing a freezing effect (keeping the operation switch operation not accepted for a certain time) or an effect that notifies the end of the accessory operation, irregularity occurs. Even when the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination does not stop on the activated line, the player can be notified of the end of the winning object operation.

Further, in a game in which the replay is not won in the game, the 3 bet switch (max bet switch) 40b may be turned on after the game is finished. For example, even if you have not won the replay in the game, even if the irregularities as described above occur and the symbol combination corresponding to the replay is stopped on the activated line, the 3 bet switch (max bet By illuminating the switch 40b, it is possible to inform the player that betting is possible, that is, automatic betting is not performed in the game (not a replay prize).

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described contents, and various modifications such as the following are possible.
(1) In the present embodiment, after the main game state 14 or 15 is finished, the main game state 12 is executed to execute one game, and in this main game state 12, the main game state 2 (or 16) is set, The state management counter “40” is set (the battle ending process in FIG. 47).
However, without being limited to this, these processes are executed as all the final game stop processes of the main game states 14 and 15, and the main game state 14 or 15 is directly provided from the main game state without providing the main game state 12. You may make it shift to the state 2 or 16.

However, if the main game state 12 is provided, the AT introduction effect and the AT start effect can be output during the game in the main game state 12.
When the main game state 12 is provided as in the first embodiment, the game is not limited to one game, and the game may be executed a plurality of times in the main game state 12.
When the process relating to the main game state 12 or the main game state 2 or 16 to be transferred thereafter can be executed at the start of the main game state 14 or 15, the process is executed at the start of the main game state 14 or 15. You may.

(2) In the continuous lottery process of FIG. 45, the individual continuous lottery corresponding to the comparison value A is executed only when the condition device having no setting difference is operated. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the individual continuous lottery corresponding to the comparison value A may be executed even when the condition device having the setting difference is operated. In this case, in FIG. 45, step S341 is omitted, and, for example, when the condition device having the setting difference is operated, there is a 100% probability that “comparison value A=0” (that is, the operation of the condition device having the setting difference). At times, it is possible to carry out an individual continuous lottery in which the entered number is “0”). By doing so, it is possible to eliminate the process of determining whether or not the condition device is operating with no setting difference, so that it is possible to reduce the processing load.

Similarly in the second embodiment, the continuous lottery may be executed even when the condition device having the setting difference is operated (the judgment in step S382 of FIG. 52 is eliminated).
Further, when the individual continuous lottery is executed even when the condition device having the setting difference is operated, the individual continuous lottery which is more advantageous than the operation of the condition device having no setting difference is performed, or vice versa. It is possible to perform the individual continuous lottery, which is more disadvantageous than when the condition device having no difference is operated.

(3) In FIG. 45, the individual continuous lottery corresponding to the comparison value A may be executed when all the condition devices having no setting difference are activated, or some condition devices having no setting difference. May be executed at the time of the operation of.

(4) In FIG. 45, in steps S347 to S349, the comparison value A and the comparison value B are compared, and the larger one is stored as the continuous lottery result. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is also possible to calculate “comparison value A+comparison value B” and use that value as the continuous lottery result.
Further, in the continuous lottery process of FIG. 45, the larger one of the comparison value A and the comparison value B is set as the continuous lottery result, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the smaller one is referred to to determine the continuous lottery result. You may.
Furthermore, if a very advantageous result is obtained for the player in the first continuous lottery (individual continuous lottery in the first embodiment), subsequent continuous lottery may not be executed.
Further, in the first embodiment, the lottery is performed twice in order to obtain the comparison value A and the comparison value B, but the present invention is not limited to this, and continuous lottery is performed three times or more to compare the comparison value A and the comparison value. The value B, the comparison value C,... Are obtained, and the most advantageous result may be adopted.

(5) In the continuous lottery process of FIG. 45, there are two choices, “0=non-continuous” and “1=continuous”. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the continuous lottery result may be set to “0” to “4” like a CZ rank, and the larger the value, the more advantageous it may be set. As "more advantageous", for example, it is easy to add the number of games in the next set AT, that the continuous lottery can be taken under advantageous conditions in the next or subsequent continuous lottery, next time or next time Regarding the subsequent continuation, it is possible to continue unconditionally without performing a lottery (or to execute a continuous lottery with a winning probability of 100%).

(6) The two-stage lottery of the individual continuous lottery and the common continuous lottery in FIG. 45 is not limited to the continuous lottery of the AT, for example, the lottery lottery of the AT game number and the extra lottery of adding the AT game number of times to each game. It can be used in various kinds of lottery, such as an erasing zone, a CZ rank lottery, a CZ rank addition lottery, an upper limit rank lottery, a precursor counter lottery, a precursor correction lottery, other mode lottery, and an effect content lottery.
When used in a lottery for production, for example, a lottery (individual lottery) based on a condition device is used for lottery of attack contents of an enemy character, and a common lottery is used for lottery of attack contents of an ally character. Further, it is possible to use a lottery based on a condition device for an attack end lottery, and a common lottery for a resurrection lottery when a teammate character is defeated.

(7) In the second embodiment (FIG. 52), for example, a lottery number 2 which is an advantageous lottery number is selected in non-RT or RT1 corresponding to a normal game, and in RT2 (increase RT), a lottery number 2 is selected. A disadvantageous lottery number (for example, lottery number 1) may be selected.
By doing so, even if the player falls from RT2 to RT1 due to an operation error of the stop switch 42 by the player during AT, it is possible to compensate the payout so as not to be disadvantageous.

(8) In this embodiment, the continuous lottery process (FIG. 45) is executed at the end of one set AT (when the state management counter is “0”) in the start process (FIG. 33) of the main game state 2. However, the continuous lottery process is not limited to this, and may be executed any time during the advantageous section (for example, the main game state 14 or 15), or may be executed every game even in the main game state 2.
In the continuous lottery process, the individual continuous lottery process based on the condition device and the common lottery process not based on the condition device are executed.
Here, the common lottery process not based on the condition device is not uniformly executed, but for example, the game state (RT, main game state, presence/absence of working of accessory, AT lottery probability state (eg, high probability), etc.) Different lottery may be executed according to Alternatively, a different lottery may be executed depending on variables relating to AT (CZ rank (AT level or continuation rate), points updated during AT, parameters, number of games, etc. Furthermore, variables relating to main game state and AT Different common continuous lottery may be executed based on both of the above.

(9) In FIGS. 48 and 49, when the output condition of the ending effect is satisfied (when the advantageous section clear counter becomes “88”), the ending effect is output. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and during the transition from the AT effect to the ending effect, the ending preparation effect may be provided for about 1 to 10 games. In the case of the ending preparation effect, the output of the additional effect or the continuous effect based on the operation of the condition device is not output (or limited).

(10) In the first embodiment, replays (replays C and D) are drawn during the 2BB game, but the present invention is not limited to this, and replays may not be drawn during the 2BB game.
Also in the third embodiment, it is arbitrary whether or not the replay is drawn during the 2BB game.
Also in the third embodiment, when the same replay (replay C and D) lottery as in the first embodiment is executed, when the condition device of the replay C or D is operated, the replay 05 is won with “PB=1”. You can
In addition, in the first or third embodiment, when a replay is drawn during a 2BB game and a replay is won, one of the small wins may be won without winning the replay that was won.

(11) In the first embodiment, under the condition of the winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, the 13-higher small win or the 12-low cheap win is made to win, but how many payouts can be made? You may set it. However, "the number of paid-out small winning roles> the number of paid-out small winning roles".
Also, it is preferable that the number of paid-out small winning combinations is the maximum payout number X when winning a small winning combination in the gaming machine, and the number of paid-out small winning combinations is "X-1". This is because the operating loss and/or the pressing order of the stop switch 42 can minimize the loss of the player even when the small winning combination wins.

(12) In the third embodiment, the payout number for each of the small winning combinations 01 and 02 is set to 13 under the condition of winning ALL during 2BB operation. However, without being limited to this, it is possible to set the small winning combination 01 to 13 and the small winning combination 02 to 12. Conversely, it is possible to set the small winning combination 01 to 12 and the small winning combination 02 to 13.
Further, as in the third embodiment, it may be set such that the small winning combination may be missed in any pressing order. The small winning combination may be set to be "PB≠1" in a pushing order other than the order.

Furthermore, when a symbol combination of "PB≠1" is provided under the condition of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, only a part of the reels 31 is set to the symbol arrangement and the number of moving symbols of "PB≠1". And a method of setting all the reels 31 to the symbol arrangement and the number of movement symbols of “PB≠1”. If all the reels 31 are set to “PB≠1”, it is possible to provide a case where the small win is missed regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42.

(13) In the first embodiment, a plurality of types of symbol combinations of the small eye winning combination and the small eye winning combination are provided under the condition of the winning ALL during the 2BB operation. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and at least one symbol combination of the high eye small win and the low eye small win may be one type.
Similarly, in the third embodiment, under the condition of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, the symbol combination of the small combination 02 is one type. However, the invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of types of symbol combinations of the small winning combination 02 may be provided. By providing a plurality of types of symbol combinations of the small winning combination 02, it is possible to increase the variation of the stop appearance.

Here, in the situation of winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, if there is one kind of symbol combination of a small win, a small win, and a small win that may be missed, these small wins are dealt with. It becomes easier for the player to recognize that the symbols forming the symbol combination are controlled to be drawn.
On the other hand, if there are multiple types of symbol combinations for high win small wins, low win small wins, and small wins that have the possibility of being missed, the symbols that form the pattern combinations corresponding to these small wins are drawn in and controlled. This makes it difficult for the player to recognize that, and the technical intervention based on the knowledge of the player can be enhanced. That is, in the situation of the winning ALL during the operation of 2BB, there is a merit in each of whether there is one kind or a plurality of kinds of small winning symbol combinations.

(14) In the present embodiment, the specified number (the number of inserted medals) is set to 2 during 2BB operation. Here, if the specified number is set to three, the disadvantage to the player at the time of missing the small winning becomes large, so that either the high winning or the low winning is selected as in the first embodiment. It is possible to set prizes so that there are no spills. By setting the specified number during 2BB operation to three and setting it to have a dropout, it is possible to make a gaming machine with a higher degree of technical intervention.
On the other hand, in the case where the small winning combination is set to be dropped during 2BB operation, if the specified number is set to one, even if the small winning set is dropped, the disadvantage to the player is minimized. Can be

(15) In the 2BB game, the reels having the maximum number of moving symbols of 4 symbols (stop within 190 ms) are left and right reels 31, and the reel having the maximum number of moving symbols of 1 symbol (stop within 75 ms) is a middle reel. It was set to 31. However, not limited to this, the reel having the maximum number of moving symbols of one symbol (stop within 75 ms) may be any reel 31, and may be two or three reels 31.
In addition, in the example of FIG. 51 of the first embodiment, the winning rate of the highest winning combination is the highest in the pressing order 213, and in the example of FIG. 53 of the third embodiment, the highest winning combination is in the middle first stop. The winning rate of is increased. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and since it is considered that the player usually plays the game with the first stop on the left (forward push), the maximum number of moving symbols is 1 symbol (stop within 75 ms), for example. If you set the reel to become the left reel 31 and set the highest winning rate of the highest winning combination at the first left stop to be the lowest or the probability of missing the highest, the game that is difficult for beginners to lose It can be a machine.

(16) In the present embodiment, 1BB having a setting difference is 1BBA (one type), and 1BB having no setting difference is 1BBB and 1BBC (two types). However, the present invention is not limited to this, a plurality of types of 1BB having a setting difference may be provided, and one type of 1BB having no setting difference may be one type.
Similarly, in the present embodiment, three types of 2BB having no setting difference are provided, but the present invention is not limited to this and may be one type. Further, one type or two or more types of 2BB having a setting difference may be provided.

(17) In the present embodiment, a slot machine is given as an example of one of the gaming machines, but it can also be applied to, for example, a casino machine or an enclosed gaming machine (medalless gaming machine).
Here, the enclosed game machine (medalless game machine) can eliminate the medal payout device (a unit including the hopper 35, the hopper motor 36, and the payout sensor 37) in FIG. 1, for example. Further, the medal insertion slot 43 and the medal selector can be dispensed with. Then, all the electronic medals (electronic game media) given by winning the winning combination are stored in the stored number display LED 76. In this case, it is conceivable that the stored number display LED 76 is composed of, for example, five digits (up to “99,999” electronic medals can be stored).
(18) The counter value, the numerical value, and the like shown in the present embodiment are merely examples, and the present invention is not limited to these.

<Appendix>
The inventions (original inventions) described in the initial description of the present application include, for example, the following initial inventions 1 to 10, and solve the problems to be solved by the respective initial inventions and the problems related to the original inventions, respectively. Means for achieving the above and effects of the first invention are as follows. However, the invention described in this specification does not mean that the inventions 1 to 10 are initially limited.

1. Original invention 1
(A) Problem to be Solved by Initial Invention 1 The initial invention relates to a gaming machine capable of executing a process relating to the notification game (AT) even when a special winning combination having a setting difference is won.
In a conventional gaming machine, when a special winning combination having a setting difference (the winning probability of at least one setting value is different from the winning probability of at least one other setting value) is won, based on the winning of the special winning combination, It is not possible to shift to the advantageous section. Therefore, a lottery or the like relating to the AT cannot be executed by winning the special combination (see, for example, FIGS. 17 and 18 of Japanese Patent No. 6112524).
As described above, in the conventional gaming machine, when the special combination having the setting difference is won, the advantageous section and the AT cannot be given, so when the special combination having the setting difference is won, the player is discouraged. There is a problem.
Initially, the problem to be solved by the invention is to make it possible to give a profit to a player even when a special part having a setting difference is won.

(B) Means for solving the problem of invention 1 at the beginning (Note that the corresponding embodiment is described in parentheses.)
The original invention was
It is possible to execute a lottery of a combination including a special combination (1BB) for shifting to a special game (1BB game) (a combination lottery means 61),
As the special combination, at least a first special combination (1BBB, 1BBC) having the same winning probability in all set values and a second special combination (1BBA) having different winning probability in at least some of the setting values ,
When the first special combination wins and shifts to a special game (1BBB game or 1BBC game), in the special game, the operation information (correct answer pressing order) of the stop switch (42) which is advantageous to the player is notified. It is possible to execute processing relating to the information game (AT) (additional lottery processing in step S421 in FIG. 37),
When the second special combination wins and shifts to the special game (1BBA game), the special game does not execute the process related to the notification game,
As the game section, there are a normal section (non-advantageous section) in which the information game cannot be executed, and an advantageous section in which the information game can be executed.
When the first special combination is won in the advantageous section and the special game is started, a predetermined process (process in the main game state 12) can be executed after the special game is finished,
When the second special prize is won in the advantageous section and the special game is started, the predetermined process can be executed after the special game is finished,
In the predetermined process, a specific process related to the notification game (a process of setting the main game state 2 or 16 and setting the state management counter "40". Steps S363, S364, and step S365 of FIG. 41 and FIG. 47. ) Is performed.

(C) Effect of the first invention According to the first invention, in the advantageous zone, regardless of whether the first special combination or the second special combination is won, a predetermined process is executed after the special game ends. Since it is possible and in the predetermined process, a specific process relating to the notification game is executed, even if the second special winning combination having a setting difference is won, the player can benefit through the predetermined process and the specific process. Can be given.

2. Initial invention 2
(A) Problem to be Solved by Initial Invention 2 The initial invention relates to a gaming machine capable of executing a process relating to the notification game (AT) even when a special winning combination having a setting difference is won.
In a conventional gaming machine, when a special winning combination having a setting difference (the winning probability of at least one setting value is different from the winning probability of at least one other setting value) is won, based on the winning of the special winning combination, It is not possible to shift to the advantageous section. Therefore, a lottery or the like relating to the AT cannot be executed by winning the special combination (see, for example, FIGS. 17 and 18 of Japanese Patent No. 6112524).
In the conventional gaming machine, the advantageous section and the AT cannot be given based on the winning of the winning combination having the setting difference. Therefore, even if the winning combination having the setting difference (for example, a rare small winning combination) is won, the advantageous section and the AT are given. There is a problem that people cannot expect.
Initially, the problem to be solved by the invention is to make it possible to give a profit to a player even when a winning combination having a setting difference is won.

(B) Means for solving the problem of the first invention 2 (Note that the corresponding embodiment is described in parentheses.)
The original invention was
Role lottery means (61) for performing lottery of roles,
And a notification game execution means for executing a notification game (AT) for notifying the operation information (correct answer pressing order) of the stop switch (42) which is advantageous to the player,
In a predetermined game (game in which a continuous lottery process is executed), a first lottery (individual continuous lottery) based on the lottery result of the role lottery means and a second lottery (common to the lottery result of the role lottery means) Continuous lottery) and
Based on the result of either one of the result of the first lottery (comparison value A) and the result of the second lottery (comparison value B), a predetermined determination regarding the notification game (for continuous lottery of AT) It is characterized in that it is judged whether or not the player has won. Step S196 in FIG.

(C) Effect of Initial Invention 2 According to the initial invention, even if the lottery result of the winning combination lottery means is non-win, for example, an advantageous conclusion can be expected in the predetermined determination regarding the information game. Further, even when the lottery result of the winning lottery means is an advantageous lottery result, an advantageous conclusion can be expected in the determination.

3. Initial invention 3
(A) Problem to be solved by the first invention 3 Same as the first invention 2.
(B) Means for Solving the Problem of Original Invention 3 (Note that the corresponding embodiment is described in parentheses.)
The original invention was
Role lottery means (61) for performing lottery of roles,
And a notification game lottery means for selecting whether or not to execute the notification game (AT) for notifying the operation information (correct answer pressing order) of the stop switch (42) which is advantageous to the player
The information game lottery means,
A first lottery based on a lottery result of the role lottery means and a second lottery based on a game state (RT, main game state, total number of games, etc.) can be executed.
The first lottery result is compared with the second lottery result, one of the lottery results is determined based on a predetermined condition, and a predetermined process relating to the information game is executed based on the result To do.

(C) Effect of Initial Invention 3 According to the initial invention, even if, for example, the lottery result of the role lottery means is non-win, an advantageous conclusion is made in a predetermined determination regarding the informative game according to the gaming state to stay. Can be expected. Further, even when the lottery result of the winning lottery means is an advantageous lottery result, an advantageous conclusion can be expected in the determination.

4. Original invention 4
(A) Problem to be Solved by Initial Invention 4 The initial invention relates to a gaming machine that changes the number of times of a precursory game before the notification game is executed.
In the conventional gaming machine, the number of times of the predictive game before executing the notification game (AT) is determined at the start of the predictive game (see, for example, JP-A-2017-012479).
In the above-mentioned conventional gaming machine, since the number of predictive games is fixed, it is not possible to diversify the number of predictive games and to give unexpectedness to the end timing of the predictive game (start timing of the notification game). There is.
Initially, the problem to be solved by the invention is to make it possible to change the number of times of a precursor game.

(B) Means for solving the problem of the first invention 4 (Note that the corresponding embodiment is described in parentheses.)
The original invention was
A role lottery means (61) for performing a lottery of roles is provided,
When the special combination (1BBB, 1BBC) is won by the combination lottery means, and the combination of symbols corresponding to the special combination is stopped, the special game (1BBB game, 1BBC game) is transferred,
After the end of the special game, through the precursor game (main game state 1), it is possible to execute the notification game (AT) for notifying the operation information (correct answer pressing order) of the stop switch (42) which is advantageous for the player,
During the special game, the number of predictive games to be played is determined based on the lottery result by the combination lottery means (precursor counter addition lottery 1 to 4 in step S224 of FIG. 35), and the determined number of games is determined by a predetermined counter (state management). It is possible to add to the counter),
After the end of the special game, the predictive game (main game state 0) of the number of games corresponding to the predetermined counter value can be executed (step S181 of FIG. 32),
After the completion of the precursor game, when the execution condition of the notification game is satisfied (“No” in step S262 of FIG. 39), the notification game (main game state 2) can be started.

(C) Effect of Original Invention 4 According to the initial invention, the number of times of the precursor game is changed according to the lottery result of the role lottery means during the special game. Therefore, the lottery result of the role lottery means during the special game is reflected. It is possible to execute the aura game.

5. Original invention 5
(A) Problem to be Solved by Initial Invention 5 The initial invention relates to a gaming machine that appropriately outputs an effect when the continuation upper limit end of the advantageous section and the special game overlap.
In a conventional gaming machine, it is known that an ending effect is output immediately before the end of an advantageous section (when the game reaches 1500 games, which is the upper limit number of continuous games). Furthermore, it is known that the ending effect is continued even when the special part (1BB) is won during the ending effect and the special game is started (for example, see FIG. 70(b) of Japanese Patent No. 6112524). ..

When the ending effect is preferentially output like the conventional game machine, the ending effect may be repeated or the effect state without change may continue, and the effect contents may not be what is intended.
Furthermore, during the ending production, if a production related to the addition of the advantageous section or the number of times AT is played is output based on the execution of the special game, it will be misleading to the player (if the advantageous section or the AT is further extended, There is a problem that there is a risk of misunderstanding.
Initially, the problem to be solved by the invention is a specific effect that can be output when the advantageous section is continued until the continuous upper limit number of games of the advantageous section is reached, and the first special role in which the winning probability is the same for all set values. The effect during the special game related to the above and the effect during the special game related to the second special combination having a different winning probability in at least a part of the set values are to output an effect without misunderstanding.

(B) Means for solving the problem of Invention 5 at the beginning (Note that the corresponding embodiment is described in parentheses.)
The first solution is
It is possible to execute a lottery of roles including special roles for shifting to special games,
As the special combination, at least a first special combination (1BBB, 1BBC) having the same winning probability in all set values and a second special combination (1BBA) having different winning probability in at least some of the setting values ,
When the special game (1BBB game, 1BBC game) shifts based on the winning of the first special role, in the special game, the operation information of the stop switch (42) which is advantageous to the player (correct answer pressing order) It is possible to execute the process related to the notification game (AT) (additional lottery in step S241 in FIG. 37) for notifying, and further output the first effect (effect of whether or not added) which includes the effect related to the notification game. age,
When the special game (1BBA game) is transferred based on the fact that the second special character has won the prize, the second game does not include the game-related game effect (introduction of the appearing character, story introduction, etc.). ) Is output,
As a game section, it has a normal section in which the information game cannot be executed and an advantageous section in which the information game can be executed.
When a predetermined condition is satisfied in the advantageous section (when the number of talks counter reaches “22”), the advantageous section can be continued until the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games) of the advantageous section is reached,
When the predetermined condition is satisfied in the advantageous section, a specific effect (ending effect) can be output,
In the case where the specific effect is not output in the advantageous section, when the special game is started based on the winning of the first special combination, the first effect (BB2 game effect in pattern 3 of FIG. 49) is output. Then
If the first special combination is won during the advantageous section and the special game is started based on the winning of the first special combination after the end of the advantageous section, the second effect (BB1 game effect) is output (Fig. 49 patterns 2)
It is characterized by

The second solution is
It is possible to execute a lottery of roles including special roles for shifting to special games,
As the special combination, at least a first special combination (1BBB, 1BBC) having the same winning probability in all set values and a second special combination (1BBA) having different winning probability in at least some of the setting values ,
When the special game (1BBB game, 1BBC game) shifts based on the winning of the first special role, in the special game, the operation information of the stop switch (42) which is advantageous to the player (correct answer pressing order) It is possible to execute the process related to the notification game (AT) (additional lottery in step S241 in FIG. 37) for notifying, and further output the first effect (effect of whether or not added) which includes the effect related to the notification game. age,
When the special game (1BBA game) is transferred based on the fact that the second special character has won the prize, the second game does not include the game-related game effect (introduction of the appearing character, story introduction, etc.). ) Is output,
As a game section, it has a normal section in which the information game cannot be executed and an advantageous section in which the information game can be executed.
When a predetermined condition is satisfied in the advantageous section (when the number of talks counter reaches “22”), the advantageous section can be continued until the continuous upper limit number of games (1500 games) of the advantageous section is reached,
When the predetermined condition is satisfied in the advantageous section, a specific effect (ending effect) can be output,
In the case where the specific effect is not output in the advantageous section, when the special game is started based on the winning of the first special combination, the first effect (BB2 game effect in pattern 3 of FIG. 49) is output. Then
When the first special combination is won during the advantageous section, the game shifts to the special game, and when the special game continues after the end of the advantageous section, the special effect is output in the special game during the advantageous section, which is advantageous.

In particular, in a situation where the lottery related to the information game is not executed, it is possible to output an effect that does not include an effect related to the information game.

6. Original invention 6
(A) Problem to be solved by the first invention The first invention is to respond to the operation of the stop switch in a predetermined game state in which the maximum movement diagram of at least one reel when the reels are stopped is controlled to be different in number. The present invention relates to a gaming machine in which the symbol combinations stopped and displayed are different.
In a conventional gaming machine, a replay lottery is executed during a 2BB (MB) game, and there are a case where a replay is won and a case where a small win is won depending on a win of the replay and an operation of a stop switch. Machines are known (see, for example, Japanese Patent No. 5240949).

However, in the above-mentioned conventional gaming machine, the reel stop control is the same in the game that is not won in the replay during the 2BB game, the symbol combination displayed in the stop is the same, and the payout number is also the same. Therefore, there is a problem that the skill of the player cannot be exhibited when the replay is not won during the 2BB game.
Initially, the problem to be solved by the invention is to provide the player with technical intervention in a predetermined game in a predetermined game state (for example, under the condition of winning ALL during a 2BB game).

(B) Means for solving the problem of Invention 6 at the beginning (Note that the corresponding embodiment is described in parentheses.)
The original invention was
A plurality of reels (31),
A stop switch (42) provided corresponding to each reel,
Role lottery means (61) for performing lottery of roles,
And a reel control means (65) for stopping and controlling the reel within the range of the maximum number of symbols to be moved of the reel based on the lottery result of the combination lottery means when the operation of the stop switch is detected,
The reel control means, in a predetermined game state (during a 2BB game), with respect to at least one specific reel (middle reel 31) of the plurality of reels, the maximum movement symbol number is a reel other than the specific reel. Enables different stop controls (“1” for specific reels and “4” for non-specific reels),
In a predetermined game in the predetermined game state (under a winning ALL situation), whichever press order the stop switch is pressed in, the symbol combination 1() corresponding to the first payout number (13) Small winning combination 01-04) or a symbol combination 2 (small winning combinations 05 and 06) corresponding to the second payout number (12 pieces) smaller than the first payout number can be stopped and displayed.
Percentage of stop display of the symbol combination 1 when the stop switch corresponding to the specific reel is first operated (“7980/8000” when the pressing order is “213”, and “7960” when the pressing order is “231”). /8000") is higher than the rate of stopping and displaying the symbol combination 1 when the stop switch corresponding to a predetermined reel other than the specific reel is first operated.

(C) Effect of Original Invention 6 According to the initial invention, since it is possible to stop the symbol combination in which the payout number is different based on the operation (pressing order) of the stop switch by the player, it is possible to provide technical intervention. ..
Further, by stopping and displaying the symbol combination 1 or the symbol combination 2, it is possible to prevent the player from being disadvantaged more than necessary.

And a reel control means (65) for stopping and controlling the reel within the range of the maximum number of symbols to be moved of the reel based on the lottery result of the combination lottery means when the operation of the stop switch is detected,
The reel control means, in a predetermined game state (during a 2BB game), with respect to at least one specific reel (middle reel 31) of the plurality of reels, the maximum movement symbol number is a reel other than the specific reel. Enables different stop controls (“1” for specific reels and “4” for non-specific reels),
In a predetermined game in the predetermined game state (under a winning ALL situation), whichever press order the stop switch is pressed in, the symbol combination 1() corresponding to the first payout number (13) Small winning combination 01-04) or a symbol combination 2 (small winning combinations 05 and 06) corresponding to the second payout number (12 pieces) smaller than the first payout number can be stopped and displayed.
Percentage of stop display of the symbol combination 1 when the stop switch corresponding to the specific reel is first operated (“7980/8000” when the pressing order is “213”, and “7960” when the pressing order is “231”). /8000") is higher than the ratio of stopping and displaying the symbol combination 1 when the stop switch corresponding to a reel other than the specific reel is first operated,
Under the situation that the symbol combination 1 can be stopped and displayed, the symbol combination 1 cannot be stopped and displayed due to a predetermined rotation failure with respect to the reel, even though the final stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbol combination 1 can be stopped and displayed. Even when the reels are stopped and displayed, the first payout number is controlled to be paid out,
In a situation where the symbol combination 2 can be stopped and displayed, the symbol combination 1 cannot be stopped and displayed due to a predetermined rotation failure with respect to the reel even though the final stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbol combination 2 can be stopped and displayed. Even at this time, after the stop display of all the reels, the second number of payouts is controlled to be paid out.

(C) Effect of Original Invention 7 According to the initial invention, since it is possible to stop the symbol combination in which the payout number is different based on the operation (pressing order) of the stop switch by the player, it is possible to provide technical intervention. ..
Further, by stopping and displaying the symbol combination 1 or the symbol combination 2, it is possible to prevent the player from being disadvantaged more than necessary.
Further, even when a so-called irregular stop of the reel occurs, the originally correct number of game media can be paid out.
