A stage promotion lottery for whether or not to promote to a higher stage is performed, and after the end of the third state, the predetermined section is reset using the stage determined by the stage promotion lottery to perform the third state. It is characterized by executing two states.

Here, the "third state" includes, but is not limited to, an assist time state different from the first state and the second state, an assist replay time state state, and the like, but is not limited to this, and the "second state". It suffices if it is in a state of transition by winning the continuous lottery held in.

As a result, if it is decided to continue the second state, it is possible to promote the stage in the transferred third state, and even in the third state, it is not just a connecting state until returning to the second state. It is possible to provide a game machine (10) capable of playing a game rich in interest.

Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, before shifting from the first state to the second state, a predetermined number of games is shifted to a specific state, and the specific state is described. The continuation rate of the continuous lottery is determined, and when the winning combination is won when the stop switch is operated in the predetermined correct answer pressing order by the winning combination lottery, the player is notified of the correct answer pressing order. It is provided with a non-advantageous section in which it is impossible and an advantageous section in which it is possible to shift from the non-advantageous section and notify the player of the push order of the correct answer, and at least the second state and the third state. The state belongs to the advantageous section, and the predetermined number of games in the specific state is the first time when the predetermined number of games shifts from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section and then shifts to the specific state after the second time. The feature is that the number of games is set shorter than when the game shifts to a specific state.
As a result, if the number of games is long when the transition is made from the second time onward, it may become a factor that lowers the interest of the player, and it is possible to prevent such a decrease in the interest of the player. 10) can be provided.

Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, it is not determined to continue the second state by the continuous lottery performed during the second state, and the stage is the lowest stage. In cases other than the above, the stage is demoted by one stage so that the second state is continued.
As a result, even if it is not decided to continue the second state, if the stage related to the expectation of the privilege given in the second state is other than the lowest stage, the second state is continued. By linking the privilege in the second state and the continuation of the second state, it is possible to provide a gaming machine (10) capable of improving the interest of the player.

Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, it is not determined to continue the second state by the continuous lottery performed in the second state, and the stage is at the lowest stage. In some cases, it is characterized in that the second state is terminated and the first state is shifted to.

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

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

As shown in FIG. 11, the winning combination group including the bonus transfer combination includes "RBB1" in which RBB1 wins, "RBB2" in which RBB2 wins, "RBB3" in which RBB3 wins, and "RBB4" in which RBB4 wins. , "RBB5" where RBB5 wins, and "RBB6" where RBB6 wins are provided.

As shown in FIG. 12, the winning combination group “HZ” (loss) shows a case where none of the other winning combination groups is elected.

As shown in FIG. 12, the winning combination group including the replay combination is provided with "NXP1" in which RP_1 to RP_14 are elected, and "NXP2" in which RP_1 to RP_1, RP_115, and RP_1 are elected.

As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, in the winning combination group including the small combination, CH_1 to CH_3 (irregular cherry) and CHL_1 to CHL_1 (weak cherry: see FIG. 8) are elected "NCH", CH_1 to CH_3. (Irregular cherry: see Fig. 8), CHH_1 to CHH_13 (strong cherry: see Fig. 8) win "HCH", WM_1 to WM_8 (watermelon: see Fig. 8) win "WM", AT_1 to AT_6 (push order) Correct answer: "PZ" won by (see Fig. 8), WM_1 to WM_8 (watermelon), AT_1 to AT_6 (correct answer in push order: see Fig. 8), ALL2 (all combinations with one payout) "ALL1", AT_1, ATL_1, ATL_2, ATC_1 to ATC_4, ATR_1 to ATR_1, ONE_1 to ONE_1 to win "ATA1", and the like are provided.

Here, for example, in the winning combination group "ATA1", the winning combination is established (winning) depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 50, and AT_1 is established (winning) when the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is correct. It is a push order combination, and if the push order is correct, 10 medals will be paid out, and if the push order is incorrect, another role will be established (winning) and one medal will be paid out (Fig. 9, Fig. 9, (See FIG. 10).
In addition, in the notation such as "LCR is correct and AT_1" in FIGS. 12 and 13, when the winning combination group "ATA1" is won, the correct answer in the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is LCR, that is, the left stop switch L. The order is the middle stop switch C and the right stop switch R, and indicates that AT_1 is established (winning) when the stop switch 50 is operated in the order of pressing the correct answer.

It should be noted that a winning combination group may be set in which a plurality of winning combination groups are simultaneously elected in the combination lottery.

Next, the winning combination group drawn for each gaming state will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 14, each winning combination group is set whether or not the combination lottery by the combination lottery means 210 is performed according to the game state (see FIG. 16) and the number of input sheets.

FIG. 14A shows a winning combination group to be drawn when the player operates the max bet switch 34. Therefore, when the specified number is 2 or 3 in the game state (RT0, RT1, RT2), the number of input cards is 3, and when the specified number is 3 in the game state (RBB1, RBB2, RBB4, RBB4). The number of inserted sheets is 3, and in the game state where the specified number is 2 (RBB5, RBB6), the number of inserted sheets is 2.

Further, FIG. 14B shows a winning combination group to be drawn when the player inserts two cards when the specified number is two or three cards.
For example, even if it is a bonus transition combination, if the max bet switch 34 is operated in the game state "RT0", the winning combination groups "RBB1" to "RBB4" are subject to the lottery, but the single bet switch. When 35 is operated twice, the winning combination groups "RBB5" and "RBB6" are subject to the lottery.

(Reel control means 220)
The reel control means 220 is a means included in the main control board 200, and is for stopping the rotation of each rotary reel 62. The reel control means 220 stops the rotation of each rotary reel 62 based on the lottery result of the winning combination lottery means 210 and the rotation position of the corresponding rotary reel 62 when each stop switch 50 is operated. The reel control means 220 may also set a condition for stopping whether or not the order (pushing order) when each stop switch 50 is stopped is satisfied with a predetermined condition, if necessary. The processing by the reel control means 220 is performed in step S12 (see FIG. 18) described later.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Here, "RBB1" to "RBB4" end with the payout of a predetermined number of medals, for example, 36 medals, and "RBB5" and "RBB6" end with the payout of a predetermined number of medals, for example, more than 5 medals. finish.
Then, after the bonus game state ends, the game shifts to the normal game state.

(Advantageous section control means 260)
The advantageous section control means 260 controls a non-advantageous section in which the operation mode of the stop switch 50, which will be described later, cannot be notified, and an advantageous section in which the operation mode can be notified, using FIG.
Then, the effect control means 320, which will be described later, is used to execute an effect of notifying the pressing order of the stop switch 50.

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

In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is decided to shift to the advantageous section by the lottery (advantageous section transition lottery) executed when the winning combination is won in the combination lottery, and it is not limited to the case where the transition is made in advance. By winning a predetermined combination, the player may shift from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section without drawing a lottery for shifting to the advantageous section.

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

Further, the advantageous section control means 260 starts counting the number of games when the section shifts to the advantageous section, and the counted number of games is a predetermined number of games determined by the ceiling game number lottery described later, for example, 666 games. By reaching the above, the state is shifted to the first AT state described later (so-called ceiling).
Here, before reaching a predetermined number of games, for example, 666 games, a lottery for whether or not to shift to the AT state described later (first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state), first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state)) If the CZ points (in the CZ state) and the 1st AT state transition lottery (points) are won, and the CZ points obtained by the CZ point lottery reach the predetermined CZ points, the number of games counted by the ceiling game counter. Is initialized.
The predetermined number of games is not limited to the case where it is determined by lottery, and may be a predetermined number of games.

Further, the counting of the number of games by the ceiling game number counter counts only the number of games played with three bets, and does not count the number of games played with two bets.
As will be described later, this is a two-card bet in which the processing related to the advantageous section is not performed because only the game with the three-card bet, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery and the push order navigation are performed. The number of games played in is not counted.

In addition, the upper limit of the advantageous section is set for the game section in which the game can be played, and when the predetermined upper limit number of games, for example, 1500 games is exhausted after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, the upper limit of the advantageous section is set. Assuming that the number of games has been reached, the transition from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section is made.
Further, in the present embodiment, after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, even before the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 games) is exhausted (before reaching the upper limit number of games in the advantageous section), in advance. When a predetermined number of balls (for example, so-called MY2400) are obtained, the advantage section is changed to the non-advantageous section even before the maximum number of games is exhausted.

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

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

With the above configuration, the sub control board 300 receives a signal from the main control board 200 and performs an effect as the game progresses.
Specifically, the sub-control board 300 outputs data that regulates the lighting and extinguishing of the LED to the LED drive circuit (not shown) for driving the effect lamp 78, and outputs sound from the speaker 72. Video data that specifies the data to be output to the audio output circuit (not shown) for output, or is output to the liquid crystal control board (not shown) for driving the display device 84. Outputs the data that specifies.

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

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

Further, when the effect control means 320 receives a command from the advantageous section control means 260 of the main control board 200 to notify the pressing order of the stop switch 50 during the advantageous section shown in FIG. 17, the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is received. It is possible to execute the effect of notifying.

Specifically, a plurality of images or videos (for example, "1") showing the pressing order are displayed on the screen of the display device 84 corresponding to the position of each stop switch 50 (specifically, the position of the rotary reel 62 corresponding to each stop switch 50). "2" "3") is displayed to notify the pressing order. After that, each time the stop switch 50 is operated, the part corresponding to the position of the operated stop switch 50 is erased (or changed to an image showing no order) in the image or video showing the pressing order.

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

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

The specified number of medals in the normal game state is two or three, and when the max bet switch 34 is operated, three medals are inserted.
Further, in the normal gaming state, as shown in FIG. 14 (B), the winning combination groups "RBB5" and "RBB6" are subject to the combination lottery only when the number of bets is two, so that the player can play. It is desirable to operate the single bet switch 35 twice without operating the max bet switch 34 to reduce the number of inserted sheets to two.
This is because, as will be described later, in the game state "RT1" (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), the advantageous section transition lottery is not performed regardless of whether the number of bets is 3 or 2. Winner who is a bonus transfer role of the game state "RT2" so as not to shift to "RT1" (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F) and to shift to the game state "RT2" where the advantageous section transition lottery is possible. This is to include the groups "RBB5" and "RBB6" in the lottery target.

In addition, when the number of bets is 3 while staying in the normal game state, processing related to the advantageous section, for example, advantageous section transition lottery, push order navigation, etc. is performed, but when the number of bets is 2, it is advantageous. No processing is performed on the section.

(Medium inside bonus)
The bonus internal medium state is controlled by the bonus internal medium state control means 252, and in the normal game state, the bonus transfer combinations "RBB1" to "RBB6" (see FIG. 11) are won, and the bonus transfer combinations "RBB1" to "RBB1" to " It shifts when the symbol combination corresponding to "RBB6" is not stopped and displayed on the effective line 86.

Specifically, if the bonus transfer role "RBB1" is won, it will be "RBB1F (RT1)", if the bonus transfer role "RBB2" is won, it will be "RBB2F (RT1)", and the bonus transfer role "RBB3". If you win, you will get "RBB3F (RT1)", if you win the bonus transfer role "RBB4", you will get "RBB4F (RT1)", and if you win the bonus transfer role "RBB5", you will get "RBB5F (RT2)". If the bonus transfer role "RBB6" is won, it will be transferred to "RBB6F (RT2)" respectively.
The probability of winning the replay role in the bonus internal medium state is set higher than in the normal game state.

The specified number of medals in the bonus internal state is 2 or 3, and when the max bet switch 34 is operated, 3 medals are inserted.

In addition, it is advantageous if the number of bets is 3 while staying at "RBB1F (RT1)", "RBB2F (RT1)", "RBB3F (RT1)", and "RBB4F (RT1)" among the bonus internal states. Processing related to the section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery, push order navigation, etc. are not performed, and the processing related to the advantageous section is not performed even when the number of bets is two.
In addition, when the number of bets is 3 while staying at "RBB5F (RT2)" and "RBB6F (RT2)" among the bonus internal states, processing related to the advantageous section, for example, advantageous section transition lottery or push order Navigation etc. are performed, but when the number of bets is 2, the processing related to the advantageous section is not performed.

In addition, in the bonus internal medium state "RBB5F (RT2)" and "RBB6F (RT2)", when the number of bets is 3, the reel control means 220 prevents the corresponding symbol combination from being stopped and displayed on the valid line 86. Is set to.
However, when the number of bets is two, the reel control means 220 is set so that the corresponding symbol combination can be stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, but as shown in FIG. 14 (B), the bonus is inside. In the states "RBB5F (RT2)" and "RBB6F (RT2)", the winning combination group "HZ (loss)" is not subject to the combination lottery, and other winning combination groups are always elected, and reel control Since the means 220 performs pull-in control with priority given to small wins and replays over the symbols 61 corresponding to the bonus shift combinations "RBB5" and "RBB6" (so-called small win priority control, replay priority control), the bonus shift Since the symbol combination of the roles "RBB5" and "RBB6" is not stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, if the bonus internal medium state "RBB5F (RT2)" or "RBB6F (RT2)" is temporarily transferred, It is set so that it does not shift to another gaming state.

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

In this embodiment, the bonus game state can be transferred to "RBB1" which can be transferred when the bonus transfer role "RBB1" is won, "RBB2" which can be transferred when the bonus transfer role "RBB2" is won, and bonus transfer. "RBB3" that can be transferred when the role "RBB3" is won, "RBB4" that can be transferred when the bonus transfer role "RBB4" is won, and "RBB5" that can be transferred when the bonus transfer role "RBB5" is won. "RBB5" is provided with "RBB6" that can be transferred when the bonus transfer combination "RBB6" is won.

As described above, in the bonus game states "RBB5" and "RBB6", the corresponding symbol combination is not stopped and displayed on the effective line 86 in the bonus internal medium state, so that the bonus transition role is performed in the normal game state. It is a state of transition only when the symbol combination corresponding to the game in which "RBB5" and "RBB6" are won is stopped and displayed on the effective line 86.

Here, "RBB1" to "RBB4" end with the payout of a predetermined number of medals, for example, 36 or more medals, and "RBB5" and "RBB6" end with the payout of a predetermined number of medals, for example, more than 5 medals. finish.
Then, after the end of the bonus game state, the game shifts to the normal game state.

Further, when the number of bets is 3 while staying in the bonus game states "RBB1" to "RBB4", the processing related to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery or the push order navigation is not performed.
Since the specified number of bonus game states "RBB1" to "RBB4" is 3, the game cannot be played with a bet number of 2.

Further, when the number of bets is two while staying in the bonus game states "RBB5" and "RBB6", the processing related to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section transition lottery or the push order navigation is not performed.
Since the specified number of bonus game states "RBB5" and "RBB6" is two, the game cannot be played with three bets.

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

The "non-advantageous section" is a section excluding the "advantageous section".
From the "non-advantageous section" to the "advantageous section", in the present embodiment, the winning combination determined by the winning combination lottery, as shown in FIG. 15, when the gaming state is "RT0" and the number of bets is three. , "NXP1", "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", "WM", "ATA1" to "ATA12", from "non-advantageous section" to "advantageous section" The advantageous section transition lottery is performed, and the transfer is made by winning the advantageous section transition lottery.

In addition, when the game state is "RT1" (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F) and the number of bets is 3, the winning combination lottery result is not the advantageous section transition lottery regardless of which winning combination group is won. I am doing it.

If the game status is "RT2" (RBB5F, RBB6F) and the number of bets is three, the winning combination groups "NXP1", "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", "WM", When "ATA1" to "ATA12" are won, an advantageous section transition lottery is performed from the "non-advantageous section" to the "advantageous section", and the transfer is made by winning the advantageous section transition lottery.

In addition, when the number of bets is two, regardless of whether the gaming state is RT0, RT1, or RT2, the winning combination lottery result will not be selected for the advantageous section transition lottery regardless of which winning combination group is won. I have to.

Here, in the game state "RT1" (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), the advantageous section transition lottery is not performed regardless of whether the number of bets is 3 or 2, so that the player can play the game state "RT1". (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), in the normal game state "RT0", as described above, by operating the single bet switch 35 twice, it goes to "RT2" (RBB5F, RBB6F). You will play to make the transition.

In the present embodiment, the winning probability of the advantageous section transition lottery is set to a high probability, and the transition to the advantageous section is set in several games of the non-advantageous section.
In addition, the "non-advantageous section" to the "advantageous section" is not limited to the case of shifting by winning the advantageous section transition lottery, which is performed when a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery. If a predetermined combination is won, the advantage section may be transferred to the advantageous section without drawing a lottery.

Further, in the present embodiment, the section notification lamp 90 is set to light up after the so-called third stop of the game in which the predetermined combination that triggers the transition to the advantageous section is won.
The lighting of the section notification lamp 90 is not limited to the above-mentioned case, and may be turned on in other cases, for example, at the time of transition to the first AT state described later.

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

In addition, the advantageous section may be provided with an additional state such as a lottery for whether or not to add the number of games in the AT state.

Here, the section that is advantageous to the player is, for example, in the non-advantageous section, the push order combination that is won when the stop switch 50 is operated in the push order predetermined by the combination lottery is won. Even in the case, the game is changed from a state in which it was impossible to notify the player of the push order to a possible state, or an AT state that is not executed in the non-advantageous section is executed. It is a section that is advantageous to people.
Therefore, it does not have to be advantageous to the player throughout the "advantageous section", and may not be advantageous to the player in a part of the "advantageous section".

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

In addition, after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, even before the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 games) is exhausted (before reaching the upper limit number of games in the advantageous section), the predetermined number of games is set in advance. When a ball is played (for example, so-called MY2400 cards), the advantage section is shifted to the non-advantageous section even before the maximum number of games is exhausted.
Therefore, in the main control board 200, in order to determine whether or not the predetermined number of balls (so-called MY2400) is reached, the number of input and the number of payouts after shifting to the advantageous section are counted. ..

In addition, at the time of transition to the advantageous section, (1) normal state type lottery, (2) ceiling game number lottery, and (3) benefit lottery are performed.
The lottery performed at the time of transition to the advantageous section is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed at the time of transition to the advantageous section is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

(1) The normal state type lottery determines by lottery whether to shift to the "low accuracy", "normal", "high accuracy", or "ultra-high accuracy" described later in the advantageous section normal state. is there.

(2) The number of ceiling games lottery determines the number of ceiling games by lottery.
In the present embodiment, the number of ceiling games is set by multiplying the numerical values of "1", "3", and "6" by the numerical value determined by lottery by "111".
For example, if "1" is determined by lottery, the "111" game is the number of ceiling games.

(3) The benefit lottery determines the benefits of winning in the advantageous section first.
Here, the benefit is a type of the first AT state described later, and includes "same color BIG", "different color BIG", and "REG".
Here, as will be described later, the "different color BIG" is more advantageous for the player because the expected value of the medal payout is higher than the "REG", and the "same color BIG" is the first than the "different color BIG". It is set to be advantageous for the player because the probability of the transition lottery to the 2AT state is high.

Then, when "same color BIG" and "different color BIG" are determined by lottery, a lottery is further performed to see if a more advantageous type than "same color BIG" and "different color BIG" can be obtained.
Specifically, maintaining "same color BIG" and "different color BIG", changing from "same color BIG" or "different color BIG" to "upper same color BIG" or "upper different color BIG" which is advantageous for the player. Will be drawn.

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

Advantageous section The normal state is provided with "low accuracy", "normal", "high accuracy", and "ultra-high accuracy", which have different expectations for transition to the CZ state, which will be described later.
Here, as for the degree of expectation of transition to the CZ state, "low probability" is the lowest and "ultra-high probability" is the highest.
That is, in the precursory transition lottery described later, the winning probability of the "main precursor" is set so that the "ultra-high probability" is the highest and the "low probability" is the lowest. On the contrary, the winning probability of "Gase precursor" is set so that "ultra-high probability" is the lowest and "low probability" is the highest.

In addition, in the advantageous section normal state, (1) 1st AT state transition lottery, (2) normal state type promotion lottery 1, (3) precursor transition lottery, (4) CZ book precursor game number lottery, (5) CZ gasse precursor The number of games lottery and (6) normal state type promotion lottery 2 are held.
The lottery performed in the advantageous section normal state is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed in the advantageous section normal state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

(1) The first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) is a combination predetermined by the combination lottery, for example, the winning combination groups "NCH", "WM", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB". , Is performed when the player is elected, and a lottery is conducted to determine whether or not to shift to the first AT state.
In the main lottery, in the present embodiment, the higher the set value of the winning probability of the winning combination lottery, the higher the winning probability, and the lower the set value, the lower the winning probability, but the present lottery is limited to this. Instead, the lottery may be performed with a uniform winning probability without depending on the set value.

If the lottery is won, the number of games in the 1st AT state will be drawn, and the number of games in the precursory state will be determined by the lottery to determine whether or not to shift to the 1st AT state. By digesting, it shifts to the first AT state.

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

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

(4) The CZ precursor game number lottery is a lottery performed when the "precursor" is drawn in the precursor transition lottery, and the number of games of the precursor is determined by lottery.
By digesting the number of games, the game shifts from this precursor to the CZ state as described later.

(5) The CZ Gase precursor game number lottery is a lottery performed when the "Gase precursor" is drawn in the precursor transition lottery, and the number of games of the Gase precursor is determined by the lottery.
By digesting the number of games, as will be described later, the game shifts from the sign of Gase to the normal state of the advantageous section.

(6) In the normal state type promotion lottery 2, there are cases where it is decided to shift to "Gase precursor" in the precursor transition lottery, and cases where neither "this precursor" nor "Gase precursor" is determined. It is a lottery to be performed, and in the present embodiment, when a predetermined combination by the combination lottery, for example, a winning combination group "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", "WM" is won. In addition, it is decided by lottery whether or not to promote one step from "low accuracy" to "normal", "normal" to "high accuracy", and "high accuracy" to "ultra-high accuracy" in the advantageous section normal state. Is.
In addition, if the current stage of the advantageous section normal state is "ultra-high accuracy", it is not done because it is not necessary to do the main lottery, but regardless of the result of the main lottery, "ultra-high accuracy" should be maintained. You can do it.

(Omen state)
The precursory state is a state in which a fanning effect is performed to notify that there is a possibility of shifting to the CZ state during the number of games determined by the CZ book precursor game number lottery and the CZ gasse precursor game number lottery.
Then, by digesting the number of games determined by the lottery of the "precursor state", in the case of the "precursor", it shifts to the "CZ state", and in the case of the "gase omen", the "advantageous section normal state". Move to.

In addition, in the Gase precursor, the above-mentioned first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) is performed.
The lottery held in the precursory state is not limited to the above.

(CZ state)
The CZ state is an example of the normal state of the first state, and is executed for a predetermined number of games, for example, 20 games, and is in a state with a higher probability of shifting to the first AT state than the advantageous section normal state. Yes, specifically, the winning probability of the 1st AT state transition lottery (1st AT state transition lottery (in CZ state)) is set higher than that of the 1st AT state transition lottery (in the advantageous section normal state). It is in a state of being.
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the case where the winning probability is set high, and the number of lottery for the transition to the first AT state may be increased.

In the CZ state, (1) 1st AT state transition lottery (during CZ state), (2) CZ point lottery, (3) 1st AT state transition lottery (points), (4) Benefit rewriting lottery (1st AT state transition) Time), (5) Type lottery will be held when rewriting benefits.
The lottery performed in the CZ state is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed in the CZ state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

(1) The 1st AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state) is a lottery that is performed from the 11th game after 10 games have been exhausted after the start of the CZ state, and determines whether or not to shift to the 1st AT state. In the embodiment, the winning combination is performed when a predetermined combination is won by a combination lottery, for example, the winning combination groups "NXP1" and "NXP2".

Here, by making the main lottery start from the 11th game in the CZ state, it becomes possible to execute a predetermined effect, for example, a continuous effect over a plurality of games, for 10 games after the start of the CZ state, and 10 games. It prevents the production from ending in the middle when the transition to the first AT state is decided between them.

If it is decided by this lottery to shift to the first AT state (in the case of winning), the game shifts to the first AT state from the next game.
The transition is not limited to the case of transitioning from the next game to the first AT state, and the transition may be made after the end of the CZ state. In such a case, the lottery may be performed without waiting for 10 games to be completed after the start of the CZ state.

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

In the CZ point lottery, the lottery for whether or not to acquire CZ points is not performed, and the CZ points to be acquired are determined by lottery. However, whether or not to acquire CZ points by targeting 0 points as the lottery target. It is a concept that includes the lottery.
Therefore, if 0 points are not included in the lottery target of the CZ point lottery, a lottery for whether or not to acquire CZ points may be performed prior to the CZ point lottery.

(3) The first AT state transition lottery (points) is the final game of the CZ state, and is a lottery for whether or not to shift to the first AT state based on the CZ points acquired by the CZ point lottery.
Then, the more CZ points obtained, the easier it is to determine the transition to the first AT state.

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

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

(5) Type lottery at the time of benefit rewriting is performed when it is decided to rewrite the benefit by the benefit rewriting lottery (at the time of transition to the 1st AT state), and rewriting to "same color BIG" or "different color BIG" is drawn. To.

Here, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is "same color BIG", it may be rewritten to "different color BIG" which is more disadvantageous to the player than "same color BIG" in this rewriting lottery.
In addition, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is "upper same color BIG", it may be rewritten to "different color BIG" which is more disadvantageous to the player than "upper same color BIG" in this rewriting lottery.
In addition, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is "different color BIG", it may be rewritten to "upper same color BIG" which is more advantageous for the player than "different color BIG" in this rewriting lottery.
In this way, since it is not always limited to the case of rewriting to an advantageous state, it is possible to make the CZ state throbbing until the end.

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

The "AT state" is to win the above-mentioned AT transition lottery (1st AT state transition lottery (in the advantageous section normal state), 1st AT state transition lottery (in the CZ state), 1st AT state transition lottery (points)). It is a state in which the CZ points acquired by the CZ point lottery are transferred when they reach a predetermined CZ point.

Further, in the "AT state", the number of games for which counting is started after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section reaches the number of games (so-called 666 games, etc.) determined by the above-mentioned ceiling game number lottery. It is also made to shift by the ceiling).
Then, after the end of the "AT state", the non-advantageous section shifts to the normal state.

In the present embodiment, the "AT state" includes a "first AT state", an "AT rank determination zone", a "second AT state", and a "third AT state".
The state provided by the "AT state" is not limited to the above-mentioned state, and other states may be provided.

(1st AT state)
The first AT state is an example of an advantageous state of the first state, and in the present embodiment, it includes "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "upper same color BIG", "upper different color BIG", and "REG".
An example of the advantageous state of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, and even if it is a non-AT state (a state that is not the AT state) that can be transferred to the "AT state" with a high probability, that is, a chance zone. good. Further, when the chance zone is taken as an example of the first state in this way, the above-mentioned "CZ state" is not a "CZ state" to the AT state, but a state in which the chance zone can be transferred with a high probability, so to speak, ". It becomes the CZ state of the chance zone.

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

In addition, at the start of the first AT state, a so-called freeze that stops the progress of the game is executed, and the types of the first AT state (same color BIG), "different color BIG", "upper same color BIG", "upper different color BIG", "REG" ”), The reel effect is executed.
Here, for the reel effect to be executed according to the type of the first AT state, the reel effect predetermined for each type of the first AT state is executed, or the lottery probability predetermined for each type of the first AT state. So, it includes deciding by lottery from multiple reel productions with different times and contents.
As a result, it is possible to provide playability such as guessing the type of the first AT state from the executed reel effect.

If the first AT state is won in the second AT state transition lottery (during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) and the second AT state transition lottery (during REG), which will be described later, after the end of the first AT state. , It shifts to the second AT state through the AT rank determination zone, but if it does not win, it shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state after the end of the first AT state.

In the first AT state, the same color BIG, the different color BIG, the upper same color BIG, and the upper different color BIG digest the first half part that can be executed until the game value is acquired by a predetermined value, and the predetermined number of games after the end of the first half part. It has a second half part that can be executed until it is done.

Here, "until the game value is acquired by a predetermined value", the game value predetermined for the winning combination by the combination lottery, for example, the medal paid out to the player when the corresponding symbols are prepared. This includes the process of acquiring a predetermined number of medals and the number of medals that do not depend on the number of medals to be paid out.

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

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

In addition, as an example of the number of medals that do not depend on the number of medals paid out, the winning combination groups "HZ", "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", and "ALL2" were won by the combination lottery. In that case, that is, if no medals are paid out or if the number of medals paid out is one, it is memorized as having acquired the game value of "-3" (the same number as the number of inserted medals), and the winning combination group " If you win "NXP1", "NXP2", or "WM", that is, if you win a replay combination and a combination with 3 payouts, you will remember that you have acquired the game value of "0" and the winning combination. When the groups "PZ" and "ATA1" to "ATA12" are won, it is stored as having acquired the game value of "+7" medals.

Then, when the number of medals stored as acquired reaches 60, the first half part ends and the second half part shifts to.
In the case of this example, the number of medals actually paid out is not counted, and the same management as in the case where the difference between the number of inserted medals and the number of paid medals reaches a predetermined number is managed. It becomes possible.
Further, it is not limited to the case of managing the same as the difference number as in this example, and the difference number is used as it is, and the first half part is completed when the difference number reaches 60 sheets (so-called MY 60 sheets). Is also good.

Further, in the above-mentioned example, regardless of whether the medals are actually paid out, the game value is memorized as having acquired a game value substantially equal to the number of medals paid out, but the number of medals does not depend on the number of medals paid out. As another example, the game value for a predetermined number of medals may be stored regardless of the number of payouts, such as three rare medals and one other small medals.

Here, in the present embodiment, the "same color BIG" can be executed until, for example, the first half part obtains 60 medals, and the second half part can be executed until the ten games are completed.
The "unique BIG" can be executed until, for example, the first half part obtains 60 medals, and the second half part completes 10 games.
The "upper same color BIG" can be executed until, for example, 60 medals are obtained, and the latter half part can be executed until the game is completed 10 times.
The "upper unique BIG" can be executed until, for example, 60 medals are obtained, and the latter half part can be executed until the game is completed 10 times.

The "same color BIG" has a higher winning probability than the "different color BIG" in the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), which will be described later, even if the end conditions are the same. Further, since the winning probability of the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) is set high, the probability of the transition lottery to the second AT state is high, which is an advantageous state.

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

In addition, "REG" is not divided into the first half part and the second half part, and it is designed to end by acquiring 40 medals, but "REG" also has the first half part and the second half part as well. You can do it.
Further, in the present embodiment, the end condition of the first half part is managed by the number of medals acquired, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the above-mentioned difference number may be used.

Moreover, in the first half part, it is possible to add the number of games that can be executed in the second half part.
Specifically, as will be described later, the number of games in the second half part is increased by the lottery for adding the number of games in the second half part (during the first half part) and the lottery for adding the number of games in the second half part (during the second half part). A lottery is held to determine whether or not to add.

Further, the latter half part is set so that the expectation of transition to the second AT state is higher than that of the first half part.
Specifically, as described above, as a result of adding the number of games in the latter half part, there is a higher possibility that the player can play longer than in the first half part, and the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color) described later. Since the number of lottery (in BIG, higher-ranked different color BIG) increases, the expectation of transition to the 2nd AT state becomes high, and in addition to the 2nd AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the 1st AT state) described later, The second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) will also be held, and the second half part will be the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG). There is a high possibility that the lottery probability of the transition lottery to the 2AT state will be high.

In addition, regardless of the lottery result of the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), the lottery probability of the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is originally determined. Since the latter half part is set higher, the latter half part is set so that the probability of transition to the second AT state is higher than that of the first half part.

Further, in the present embodiment, the end conditions are managed by the number of medals acquired for the first half part of the first AT state and the number of games of the game having a high transitional attitude to the second AT state for the second half part.
This means that if the first half part is in a state of high transition period attitude to the second AT state and the second half part is in a low state, the game with low expectation of transition to the second AT state continues after the end of the first half part. In addition, if the number of games in the latter half part is added, the game with a lower attitude during the transition period to the second AT state becomes longer, which causes a decrease in the interest of the player in the second half part. Because there are points. In addition, when managing the first half part by the number of games and the second half part by the number of medals won in the game with a high transition period to the second AT state, the length of the second half part depends on the result of the role lottery of the second half part. This is because there is a problem that the difference between the two becomes too large and the balance of the game may be lost.
Also, if both the first half part and the second half part are managed by the number of medals won, the difference in length of the second half part will be too large depending on the result of the role lottery, and both the first half part and the second half part will be played. If the number is managed, the difference in the number of medals won may become too large depending on the result of the winning combination lottery, and the balance of the game may be lost. Therefore, this is not adopted in this embodiment.

In the 1st AT state, (1) image pattern lottery, (2) 2nd AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the 1st AT state), (3) second half part game number addition lottery (in the first half part), (4) ) 2nd AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), (5) lottery to add the number of games in the second half part (in the second half part), (6) 2nd AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, (During high-ranking unique BIG), (7) Second AT state transition lottery (during REG), (8) Stage promotion lottery (during REG).

The lottery performed in the first AT state is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed in the first AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

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

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

(2) The second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state) is performed at the start of the same color BIG, the different color BIG, the upper same color BIG, and the upper different color BIG, and the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, which will be described later). A lottery is performed to determine whether or not to increase the probability of the transition lottery to the second AT state performed in the different color BIG, the upper same color BIG, and the upper different color BIG).

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

(4) In the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), at the end of the first half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG, the number of games is added by the second half part game number addition lottery. It is performed when the transition to the second AT state is not determined by the lottery of the second AT state transition lottery (in the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) which will be described later. Similar to the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), the second AT state transition lottery (during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, higher different color BIG) is performed. It is a lottery to decide whether or not to increase the probability of.

(5) The lottery to add the number of games in the second half part (during the second half part) is held during the second half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and higher different color BIG, and a lottery to decide whether to add the number of games in the second half part. Is to do.
In the present embodiment, the winning combination is performed and added when a predetermined combination is won by a combination lottery, for example, the winning combination groups "NCH", "WM", "HCH", "SPA", and "SPB". The number of games is determined by lottery from among 5, 10 and 20, which is the same as the number of games in the above-mentioned number of games added to the number of games in the second half (in the first half).

In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is performed by winning a predetermined combination by the combination lottery, and each game may be performed, and the number of games to be added is the number of games added to the latter half part games (first half). It is not limited to the same case as (during the part), and may be more or less than the lottery for adding the number of games in the second half (during the first half).

(6) The second AT state transition lottery (during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is performed during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG, and shifts to the second AT state. It is a lottery to see if or not.
In the present embodiment, the winning combination is performed when a predetermined combination is won by a combination lottery, for example, the winning combination groups "NXP1" and "NXP2".
Further, as described above, the winning probability of this lottery is determined when the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state) and the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) are won. The probability is higher than when you do not win.

In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is performed by winning a predetermined combination by a combination lottery, and each game may be performed.
If the lottery is won, after the end of the second half part, the player shifts to the second AT state through the AT rank determination zone.

Further, in the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG), even when it is decided to shift to the second AT state, the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, It will continue to be executed during the upper unique BIG, and in this case, it will be a lottery as to whether or not to promote the stage in the second AT state, which will be described later.
That is, when the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is won for the first time, the transition to the second AT state is confirmed and used when the transition to the second AT state is made. If the stage to be played is set to "1" and the second AT state is won, the stage in the second AT state is promoted from "1" to "2", and if the third time is won, the stage in the second AT state is "1". It is promoted from "2" to "3".

The player may be notified of the stage of the stage to be used when the state shifts to the second AT state determined by the main lottery.
When the stage of the stage is notified to the player, the player is made to pay attention to whether or not to promote the stage where the advantage of the second AT state changes before the transition to the second AT state, and the second AT state. You will be able to improve your interests even before the start of.

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

(7) The second AT state transition lottery (during REG) is performed during REG, and a lottery for whether or not to shift to the second AT state is performed.
In the present embodiment, the winning combination groups "NXP1", "NXP2", "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", and "WM" are won by the combination lottery. If done.

Further, among the predetermined combinations described above, for example, when the game in which the winning combination groups "NXP1" and "NXP2" are won and the transition to the second AT state is decided, the stage of the second AT state described later is performed. Set to "3", and set to "1" when the transition to the second AT state is decided in the game in which another role is won.
If the lottery is won, after the end of "REG", the game shifts to the second AT state through the AT rank determination zone.

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

(AT rank determination zone)
The AT rank determination zone is an example of a specific state, and when it is determined to shift to the second AT state in the first AT state, it shifts before shifting to the second AT state, and during the second AT state. It is a state of determining the continuation rate of the continuous lottery as to whether or not to continue the second AT state to be executed.

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

The number of games in the AT rank determination zone is 11 games if the player shifts to the AT rank determination zone for the first time after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, and 11 games if the game shifts to the AT rank determination zone after the second time. Is set to 7 short games.
That is, the number of games in the first AT rank determination zone, which has been determined to shift from the first AT state to the second AT state, is 11 games, and if the player does not win the continuous lottery described later, or the pullback lottery The number of games played when the player shifts to the AT rank determination zone from the second time onward by determining to return to the second AT state by winning the game is seven games.
If the player shifts from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section and then shifts to the advantageous section again, it becomes the first AT rank determination zone, and there are 11 games.

In the present embodiment, the AT rank determination zone is provided in the AT state to determine the continuation rate of the continuous lottery, but the continuous lottery is continued in the first AT state and the second AT state without the AT rank determination zone. The rate may be determined.

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

The lottery held in the AT rank determination zone is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed in the AT rank determination zone is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

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

Further, the rank determined by the main lottery is notified to the player, but may not be notified.
If the rank is notified to the player, the player can be made to pay attention to whether to promote the rank in which the advantage of the second AT state changes, and the interest can be improved even before the second AT state starts. become able to.

(2) The rank promotion lottery (in the AT rank determination zone) is conducted during the AT rank determination zone, and a rank promotion lottery is conducted to determine whether or not to promote the rank determined by the rank lottery to a rank with a high continuation rate. Is.
In the present embodiment, the rank promotion lottery includes a case where the rank is promoted by one level and a case where the rank is promoted by two levels.
Further, when the rank is promoted by this lottery, the player is notified of the promotion and the promoted rank, but it may not be notified.

(2nd AT state)
The second AT state is an example of the second state, and has a plurality of stages with different expectations for giving a privilege to the player.
Here, as described later, the "privilege" is the correct answer of the winning AT role when the AT role (winning combination group "ATA1" to "ATA12") is won by the combination lottery during the second AT state. It includes notifying the push order.
The "expectation degree" includes the lottery probability of whether or not to give a privilege (the lottery probability of the navigation generation lottery described later).

Further, the "stage" is provided in a plurality of stages, from "1" to "3" in the present embodiment, and the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG) which is an example of the above-mentioned stage lottery. , In the upper different color BIG).

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

Further, the second AT state can be executed in a predetermined game section, 33 games in the present embodiment, the normal production of the second AT state is executed in the first 29 games, and the second AT in the latter four games. An effect is executed to notify that the number of games in the state is low and the result of the continuous lottery performed during the second AT state.

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

In addition, the second AT state started from the beginning is the case where the rank is promoted by the rank promotion lottery (rank promotion lottery 1, rank promotion lottery 2, rank promotion lottery 3) performed in the third AT state, which will be described later. If the stage is promoted by the promoted rank and the stage promotion lottery (stage promotion lottery (during the first stage), stage promotion lottery (during the second stage)), the second AT state starts at the promoted stage. Will be done.

In addition, when the continuous lottery performed during the 2nd AT state is won, the 2nd AT state is terminated and the state shifts to the 3rd AT state, but the game is to shift to the 3rd AT state before shifting to the 3rd AT state. The precursors suggested to the person are transferred after the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is executed.
It should be noted that the transition from the second AT state to the third AT state may be made without executing this precursor.

In addition, if the player does not win the continuous lottery held during the 2nd AT state, the stage will be the best after the end of the 2nd AT state and the end of the 3rd AT state, which suggests to the player that the player will be in the 3rd AT state. If it is not the lower "1", that is, if the stage is "2" or "3", the stage is demoted by one stage, moved to the AT rank determination zone, and then moved to the second AT state. When the stage is "1", which is the lowest stage, the non-advantageous section shifts to the normal state.
That is, the numerical value indicating the stage of the stage also indicates the number of times that the second AT state can be executed.

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

In addition, when the stage is the lowest stage "1", it is not limited to the case of shifting to the non-advantageous section normal state, and shifts to the pullback state in which the pullback lottery for whether or not to shift to the second AT state is performed again. You may do so.
In this case, by winning the pullback lottery, the stage shifts to the second AT state of the stage "1" through the AT rank determination zone, and if the pullback lottery is not won, the non-advantageous section normal state is entered. ..

In the 2nd AT state, (1) 3rd AT state transition lottery, (2) 3rd AT state type lottery 1, (3) 3rd AT state type lottery 2, (4) navigation generation lottery, (5) 2nd AT state continuation Lottery 1, (6) 2nd AT state continuation lottery 2, and (7) 2nd AT state continuation lottery 3 are performed.

The lottery performed in the second AT state is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed in the second AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

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

(2) The third AT state type lottery 1 is performed at the start of the second AT state, and satisfies all the conditions that the stage is "1", the rank is 0 to 5, and the number of AT digestion games is a predetermined number of times, for example, 150 times or less. It is a lottery performed in the case, and whether or not to acquire "special REG" as the type of the third AT state is determined by the lottery.

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

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

Here, as will be described later, the "higher-ranked REG" is more advantageous to the player than the "higher-ranked REG" because the rank is easily promoted by the rank promotion point lottery and the rank promotion lottery 2. However, "different color BIG" is more advantageous for players because the expected value of medal payout is higher, and "same color BIG" is ranked higher than "different color BIG" by rank promotion point lottery and rank promotion lottery 2. Is set to be advantageous for players because it is easy to be promoted.

(4) The navigation generation lottery is performed when the AT combination (winning combination groups "ATA1" to "ATA12") is won by the combination lottery during the second AT state, and is based on the lottery probability predetermined for each stage. As a privilege, it is decided by lottery whether or not to notify the player of the correct push order of the winning AT role.

For example, if the stage is "1", a lottery probability of 40% is set, if the stage is "2", a lottery probability of 60% is set, and if the stage is "3", 100%. The lottery probability is set.
By winning the main lottery, the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination is notified, and the player operates the stop switch 50 according to the pressing order of the notified correct answer, and the winning combination groups "ATA1" to "ATA12". Among the roles included in the above, "AT_1" to "AT_6" are established (winning), and 10 medals can be paid out (see FIG. 8).
The notification of the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination is executed by the display device 84 and the payout number display display 88.
If the lottery is not won, the correct order of the AT role will not be notified.

Therefore, when the stage is "2" than when the stage is "1", when the stage is "3" than when the stage is "2", it is easier for the player to win the navigation generation lottery. The number of medals that can be obtained increases.

As described above, when the stage is "2" or "3" instead of "1" at the bottom, the continuous lottery (2nd AT state continuous lottery 1, 2nd AT state continuous lottery 2, 2nd AT state continuous lottery 3) ) Is not won, the stage is demoted by one stage and the second AT state is continued. Therefore, in the second AT state where the one-stage stage is demoted, the winning probability of the navigation generation lottery is also lowered.
Therefore, it is possible to reduce the winning probability of the navigation generation lottery and continue the second AT state.

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

Further, even if the lottery for generating the navigation is not won, the order of pressing the correct answer of the AT role may be notified.
For example, if the stage is "1", the winning combination group "HZ" is lost by the combination lottery, or if the navigation generation lottery is not won, the next AT combination ( In the games won by the winning combination groups "ATA1" to "ATA12"), the order of pressing the correct answers is always notified.
In addition, when the stage is "2", if the winning combination group "HZ" is lost by the combination lottery, or if the navigation generation lottery is not won, the correct push order is always notified in the next game. I am trying to do it.

(5) The second AT state continuous lottery 1 is performed in 29 games in the first half of the second AT state, and is a continuous lottery for whether or not to continue the second AT state based on the rank.
In the present embodiment, the main lottery is performed when a predetermined combination by the combination lottery, for example, the winning combination groups "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", and "WM" are won. ..

In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is performed by winning a predetermined combination by a combination lottery, and each game may be performed.
Then, if the player wins the continuous lottery, the player shifts to the third AT state after executing a precursor of the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state.

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

In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is performed by winning a predetermined combination by a combination lottery, and each game may be performed.
Then, if the player wins the continuous lottery, the player shifts to the third AT state after executing a precursor of the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state.

(7) The second AT state continuous lottery 3 is a continuous lottery performed during the second AT state, and in the case of a loss in which the winning combination group "HZ" is won by the combination lottery, the second AT state based on the rank is continued. It is a continuous lottery to see if or not.
This lottery is set so that if the winning combination group "HZ" is the first time, it will be lost to the continuous lottery, and if the winning combination group "HZ" is consecutive, for example, twice in a row, three times. It is set so that the continuous lottery may be won in the case of consecutive cases.
Then, if the player wins the continuous lottery, the player shifts to the third AT state after executing a precursor of the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state.

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

It should be noted that the example of the third state is not limited to the third AT state, but is a type as long as the stage promotion lottery is performed by winning the continuous lottery in the second AT state, which is an example of the second state. Regardless of the above, it does not have to be in the AT state as in the present embodiment. Therefore, it can be said that it is in the second AT state stage promotion lottery state.

In the present embodiment, the third AT state includes "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", "upper REG", and "special REG".
Here, "same color BIG" can be executed until, for example, the first half part acquires 130 medals, and the second half part can be executed until one game is completed.
Here, the "different color BIG" can be executed until, for example, the first half part obtains 130 medals, and the second half part can be executed until one game is completed.
"REG" can be executed until, for example, the first half part acquires 50 medals, and the second half part can be executed until one game is completed.
The "upper REG" can be executed until, for example, the first half part obtains 50 medals, and the second half part can be executed until one game is completed.
The "special REG" can be executed, for example, until 20 games have been digested.

Further, the management of the end condition of the first half part is the same as the management of the end condition of the first half part of the first AT state described above, and may be managed not by the number of medals acquired but by the difference number or the like.

In addition, "same color BIG" is more advantageous than "different color BIG" because the winning probability of the rank promotion point lottery and the rank promotion lottery 2 described later is set higher than that of the "different color BIG" even if the end conditions are the same. It has become.

In addition, the "higher-ranked REG" is in an advantageous state because the winning probability of the rank promotion point lottery and the rank promotion lottery 2, which will be described later, is set higher than that of the "REG".

In addition, at the start of the 3rd AT state, a so-called freeze that stops the progress of the game is executed, and the types of the 3rd AT state ("same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", "upper REG", "special REG"" are executed. ), The reel production is executed.
Here, for the reel effect to be executed according to the type of the third AT state, the reel effect predetermined for each type of the third AT state is executed, or the lottery probability predetermined for each type of the third AT state. So, it includes deciding by lottery from multiple reel productions with different times and contents.
This makes it possible to provide playability such as guessing the type of the third AT state from the executed reel effect.

In the 3rd AT state, (1) stage promotion lottery (during the first stage), (2) stage promotion lottery (during the second stage), (3) rank promotion point lottery, (4) rank promotion lottery 1, ( 5) Rank promotion lottery 2, (6) Rank promotion lottery 3, (7) 3rd AT status stock lottery, (8) Special REG game number addition lottery 1, (9) Special REG game number addition point lottery, (10) Special The lottery 2 is held with the number of REG games added.

The lottery performed in the third AT state is not limited to the above-mentioned ones, and some of the above-mentioned lottery may not be executed.
Further, the lottery performed in the third AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but the lottery is not limited to this.

(1) The stage promotion lottery (during the first stage) is held during the 3rd AT state, the current stage is "1", and the types of the 3rd AT state are "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG". , It is a lottery performed in the case of "upper REG", and a stage promotion lottery for whether or not to promote the stage is performed.

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

(2) The stage promotion lottery (during the second stage) is held during the 3rd AT state, the current stage is "2", and the types of the 3rd AT state are "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG". , It is a lottery performed in the case of "upper REG", and a stage promotion lottery for whether or not to promote the stage is performed.

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

(3) The rank promotion point lottery is a lottery performed during the 3rd AT state and when the types of the 3rd AT state are "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", and "upper REG". It is a lottery for whether or not to acquire the rank promotion points used in the rank promotion lottery 1 described later.

Here, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the main lottery is set to be different depending on the type of the third AT state.
For example, "same color BIG" is set higher than "different color BIG", and "upper REG" is set higher than "REG".
The winning probability is not limited to different depending on the type of the 3rd AT state, and the lottery may be performed with the winning probability regardless of the type of the 3rd AT state.

(4) Rank promotion lottery 1 is performed in the final game of the number of pieces of the 3rd AT state type of "same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", "upper REG", and was acquired by the rank promotion point lottery. The rank promotion lottery is conducted based on the rank promotion points.
By winning this lottery, the rank will be promoted by one level.

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

Here, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the main lottery is set to be different depending on the type of the third AT state.
For example, "same color BIG" is set higher than "different color BIG", and "upper REG" is set higher than "REG".
The winning probability is not limited to different depending on the type of the 3rd AT state, and the lottery may be performed with the winning probability regardless of the type of the 3rd AT state.

By winning this lottery, the rank will be promoted by one level.
If the lottery is won when the rank is "10", one 3rd AT state is stocked.
That is, after the number of games in the third AT state is exhausted, the right to start the third AT state again can be acquired.

In the present embodiment, the main lottery is performed when a predetermined combination by the combination lottery, for example, the winning combination groups "NCH", "HCH", "SPA", "SPB", and "WM" are won. ..
In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is performed by winning a predetermined combination by a combination lottery, and each game may be performed.

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

(7) The 3rd AT state stock lottery is a lottery performed during the latter half part of the 3rd AT state, and determines whether or not to stock the right to shift to the 3rd AT state by the lottery.

By winning this lottery, it is possible to acquire the right to start the 3rd AT state again after the number of games in the 3rd AT state is exhausted.

(8) Special REG game number addition lottery 1 is performed from the 11th game after 10 games are digested after the start of the special REG, and whether or not to add the number of special REG games is determined by lottery.
By winning this lottery, for example, 15 games will be added to the number of special REG games.

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

(10) Special REG game number addition lottery 2 is a lottery performed in the last game of the special REG, and an additional lottery is performed using the additional points obtained in the special REG game number addition point lottery. ..
Further, in the remaining games of the special REG after winning the main lottery, the rank promotion lottery 2 described above is executed, and if the main lottery is won, one third AT state is stocked.
That is, after the number of games in the third AT state is exhausted, the right to start the third AT state again can be acquired.
At the start of the third AT state again due to such stock, a so-called freeze that stops the progress of the game is executed, and the types of the third AT state ("same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", "upper REG", "upper REG", " The reel effect is executed according to "special REG").
Here, as the reel effect to be executed according to the type of the third AT state, the reel effect predetermined for each type of the third AT state is executed, or the lottery probability predetermined for each type of the third AT state is executed. So, it includes deciding by lottery from multiple reel productions with different times and contents.
This makes it possible to provide playability such as guessing the type of the third AT state from the executed reel effect.

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

When the pullback state is provided, by winning the pullback lottery, the player shifts to the second AT state again through the AT rank determination zone.
In addition, if the pullback lottery is not won, the non-advantageous section shifts to the normal state.

In the present embodiment, the pullback lottery is performed when a predetermined combination by the combination lottery, for example, a winning combination group "NCH", "HCH", "WM", "SPA", or "SPB" is won. ..
In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is performed by winning a predetermined combination by a combination lottery, and each game may be performed.

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

In step S10, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the start switch 40 has been operated. Here, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has been operated, the main control board 200 makes it impossible to set the number of bets. After that, the process proceeds to the next step S11. On the other hand, if it is determined that the start switch 40 is not operated, step S10 is performed again.

As a premise of this step S10, the bet number setting process is performed. In this bet number setting process, it is determined whether or not a predetermined bet number is set as the bet number. Specifically, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the number of medals set as the number of bets for the game has reached the specified number of bets (3).

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

In step S12, the rotation fluctuation processing of the rotary reel 62 in the reel unit 60 is performed. After the rotary reel 62 reaches a predetermined rotational speed, when the main control board 200 operates the stop switch 50 corresponding to the rotating rotary reel 62, the reel control means 220 causes the rotary reel 62 to operate. The rotation is stopped. The pressing order corresponding to the winning combination of the stop switch 50 (left stop switch L, middle stop switch C, right stop switch R) at this time is stored in a predetermined storage area formed on the main control board 200, and is also stored. It is read out in the subsequent processing.

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

In step S14, the payout control means 240 performs a payout process or the like corresponding to the determination result of the stop symbol determination means 230. If the determination result shows that the payout is unnecessary, the payout process is not performed. Then, the process ends.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications other than those described above can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, as described above, the case where there are three rotating reels 62 has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the number may be other than three, for example, four.

As described above, the present invention has the following effects.
The present invention can provide a gaming machine 10 capable of improving the interest until the end of the latter half part by making the latter half part more advantageous to the player than the first half part.
Further, by changing the type of end condition between the first half part and the second half part, it is possible to provide a game machine 10 capable of playing a variety of games.

Further, by configuring as in the present embodiment, it may occur when the first half part is in a state of high transitional attitude to the second AT state and the second half part is in a low state, "after the end of the first half part, If the game with low expectation of transition to the 2nd AT state continues, and if the number of games in the latter half part is added, the game with a lower attitude during the transition period to the 2nd AT state becomes longer, and the latter half part It is possible to prevent the problem of "the player's interest in the game will be reduced".
Similarly, the "result of the role lottery of the second half part" that can occur when the first half part can be executed until the predetermined number of games are exhausted and the second half part can be executed until the game value is acquired by the predetermined value. Depending on the situation, the difference in the lengths of the latter half parts becomes too large and the balance of the game is lost. ”It is possible to prevent the problem of occurring.

Further, the present invention can further determine the stage to be used when the state shifts to the second AT state before the transition to the second AT state, and improves the interest even before the transition to the second AT state starts. Can provide a game machine 10 capable of
In order to achieve such an effect, the player may be notified of the determined stage.

Further, in the present invention, when it is decided to continue the second AT state, the stage can be promoted in the shifted third AT state, and even in the third AT state, the connection until the stage simply returns to the second AT state. It is possible to provide a game machine 10 capable of playing a game rich in interest, not in the state of.

Further, the present invention may further reduce the interest of the player if the number of games is long when the transition is made to the second time or later, and it is possible to prevent such a decrease in the interest of the player. A possible gaming machine 10 can be provided.

Further, in the present invention, even if it is not decided to continue the second AT state, if the stage related to the expectation of the privilege given in the second AT state is other than the lowest stage, It is possible to continue the second AT state, and by linking the privilege in the second AT state and the continuation of the second AT state, it is possible to provide the game machine 10 capable of improving the interest of the player. it can.

Further, the present invention further provides a game machine 10 capable of making a player excited by paying attention to a continuous lottery performed in the second AT state even if the stage in the second AT state is the lowest stage. Can be done.
