Description

The present invention relates to a game machine.

Conventionally, a game called pachislot, which is provided with a plurality of reels having a plurality of symbols provided on their respective surfaces, a start switch, a stop switch, a stepping motor provided corresponding to each reel, and a control unit. The machine is known. The start switch detects that the start lever has been operated by the player (hereinafter, also referred to as "start operation") after the game medium such as a medal or coin is inserted into the game machine, and the rotation of all reels is rotated. Outputs a signal requesting a start. The stop switch detects that the stop button provided corresponding to each reel is pressed by the player (hereinafter, also referred to as "stop operation"), and outputs a signal requesting that the rotation of the corresponding reel be stopped. To do. The stepping motor transmits its driving force to the corresponding reels. Further, the control unit controls the operation of the stepping motor based on the signals output by the start switch and the stop switch, and performs the rotation operation and the stop operation of each reel.

In such a game machine, when a start operation is detected, a lottery process using random numbers (hereinafter referred to as "internal lottery process") is performed on the program, and the result of the lottery (hereinafter, "internal winning combination") is performed. The rotation of the reel is stopped based on the timing of the stop operation. Then, when the rotation of all the reels is stopped and the combination of symbols (display combination) related to the establishment of the winning is displayed, the player is given a privilege corresponding to the combination of the symbols. As an example of the privilege given to the player, the payout of the game medium (medals, etc.) and the operation of the re-game (hereinafter, also referred to as "replay") in which the internal lottery process is performed again without consuming the game medium. , The operation of a bonus game that increases the chances of paying out game media can be mentioned. In the following, the roles related to the payout of game media (medals, etc.) (internal winning role, display role) will be referred to as "small roles", and the roles related to replay will be referred to as "replay roles", and will be related to the operation of the bonus game. The role is called a "bonus role".

Further, conventionally, in a gaming machine having the above configuration, a gaming machine having a function of navigating the formation of a specific small winning combination with a lamp or the like, that is, a function of assist time (hereinafter referred to as "AT"), or a specific symbol A gaming machine having a function of operating a gaming state in which the winning probability of replay is higher than the normal time when a combination is displayed, that is, a function of replay time (hereinafter referred to as "RT") has been developed. Further, a game machine having an assist replay time (hereinafter referred to as "ART") function in which the AT function and the RT function operate at the same time has also been developed.

By the way, conventionally, among the gaming machines having the above configuration, there are known gaming machines having a bonus with the total number of medals paid out as an end condition (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In such a game machine, it is possible to prevent the profit obtained from the bonus from fluctuating due to the skill of the player, the bias of the internal lottery, and the like.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2014-184222

In recent years, in order to further suppress the variation in profits obtained from bonuses, a configuration has been adopted in which the types of small wins that can be won during the bonus are reduced and the number of medals paid out per unit game (1 game) is constant. There is. However, when the types of small roles that can be displayed during the bonus are reduced, there is a problem that the game during the bonus becomes monotonous.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to prevent the game during the bonus from becoming monotonous while suppressing the variation in the profit obtained by the bonus. It is to provide a game machine.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a gaming machine having the following configuration.

Insertion operation detecting means (for example, a medal sensor described later) for detecting the insertion operation of the game medium, and
A start operation detecting means (for example, a start switch 79 described later) that detects a start operation by the player based on the detection of the throwing operation by the throwing operation detecting means, and
An internal winning combination determining means (for example, an internal lottery process described later) that determines an internal winning combination with a predetermined probability based on the detection of the starting operation by the starting operation detecting means.
A variable display means (for example, three reels 3L, 3C, 3R described later) which is composed of a plurality of display columns and variablely displays a symbol required for a game based on the detection of a start operation by the start operation detection means.
A stop operation detection means (for example, a stop switch board 80 described later) that detects a stop operation by the player, and
A stop control means (for example, a reel stop control process described later) for stopping the variation display of the symbol based on the determination result of the internal winning combination determining means and the detection of the stop operation by the stop operation detecting means is provided. ,
A special internal winning combination (for example, a BB combination described later) is determined by the internal winning combination determining means, and a symbol combination related to the special internal winning combination is set on the determination line set over the plurality of display columns. When the stop display is displayed, the game in the special gaming state (for example, the BB state described later) that is advantageous to the player is started, and the game is started.
In a normal gaming state different from the special gaming state,
The internal winning combination determined by the internal winning combination determining means includes a plurality of types of small winning combinations related to the payout of the game medium, and the plurality of types of small winning combinations include a specific symbol (for example, a cherry described later). The first specific combination (for example, "C_strong cherry" and "C_weak cherry" described later) in which the game medium is paid out when the first specific symbol combination including is stopped and displayed on the determination line. , And, when the predetermined symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the determination line, the game medium is paid out (for example, "C_bell 1" to "C_bell 3", "C_selection bell" described later). 01 "to" C_select bell 27 ") are included,
In the special gaming state,
The internal winning combination determined by the internal winning combination determining means includes a plurality of types of small winning combinations related to the payout of the game medium, and the plurality of types of small winning combinations include a second specific symbol including the specific symbol. The second specific combination in which the game medium is paid out when the symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the determination line , and the predetermined combination are included.
The number of payouts of the game medium related to the second specific combination is the same as the number of payouts of the game medium related to other small wins that can be determined in the special gaming state, and the number of payouts of the game medium related to the first specific combination is the same. Unlike payout of game media,
In the special gaming state, at least the first determination (for example, the winning numbers “56” and “57” described later) capable of displaying at least the second specific symbol combination by the internal winning combination determining means and the first determination. A second determination (for example, the winning number "51" described later) that cannot display the specific symbol combination of 2 and can display the predetermined symbol combination can be determined.
A gaming machine characterized in that the probability that the first decision is determined is lower than the probability that the second decision is determined.

According to the game machine of the present invention having the above configuration, it is possible to prevent the game in the special game state from becoming monotonous while suppressing the variation in the profit obtained by the game (bonus) in the special game state.

<Function flow>
First, the functional flow of the pachislot machine will be described with reference to FIG. In the pachislot machine of the present embodiment, a medal is used as a game medium for playing a game. In addition to medals, coins, game balls, point data for games, tokens, and the like can also be applied as the game medium.

When a medal is inserted into the pachislot machine by the player and the start lever is operated, one value (hereinafter referred to as a random number value) is extracted from random numbers in a predetermined numerical range (for example, 0 to 65535).

The internal lottery means draws a lot based on the extracted random number value, and determines the internal winning combination. This internal lottery means is one of various processing means (processing functions) included in the main control circuit described later. By determining the internal winning combination, the combination of symbols that are allowed to be displayed along the valid line (winning determination line) described later is determined. The types of symbol combinations include those related to "winning" in which benefits such as medal payout, replay operation, and bonus operation are given to the player, and those related to other so-called "missing". Provided.

Further, when the start lever is operated, a plurality of reels are rotated. After that, when the stop button corresponding to the predetermined reel is pressed by the player, the reel stop control means controls to stop the rotation of the corresponding reel based on the internal winning combination and the timing when the stop button is pressed. Do. This reel stop control means is one of various processing means (processing functions) included in the main control circuit described later.

In pachislot, basically, control is performed to stop the rotation of the corresponding reel within a specified time (190 msec or 77 msec) from the time when the stop button is pressed. In the present embodiment, the number of symbols that move with the rotation of the reel within this specified time is referred to as "the number of sliding pieces". In the present embodiment, when the specified period is 190 msec, the maximum number of sliding pieces (maximum number of sliding pieces) is set for four symbols, and when the specified period is 75 msec, the maximum number of sliding pieces is set. The number is set for one symbol.

When the internal winning combination that allows the combination display of the symbols related to the winning is determined, the reel stop control means usually sets the combination of the symbols to the effective line within the specified time of 190 msec (for 4 symbols). Stop the rotation of the reel so that it is displayed as much as possible along the line. Further, for the reel stop control means, for example, when the "MB" (middle bonus) described later is operated, a combination of the symbols is won for one or more reels within a specified time of 75 msec (for one symbol). Stop the rotation of the reel so that it is displayed as much as possible along the judgment line. Further, the reel stop control means uses various specified times corresponding to the gaming state to stop the rotation of the reel so that the combination of symbols whose display is not permitted by the internal winning combination is not displayed along the effective line. Let me.

As described above, when all the rotations of the plurality of reels are stopped, the winning determination means determines whether or not the combination of symbols displayed along the effective line is related to winning. This winning determination means is also one of various processing means (processing functions) included in the main control circuit described later. Then, when it is determined by the winning determination means that the combination of the displayed symbols is related to the winning, a privilege such as a medal payout is given to the player. In pachislot, the above series of flows is performed as one game (unit game).

Further, in pachislot, in the flow of the above-mentioned series of game operations, various methods are used, such as video display performed by a display device, light output performed by various lamps, sound output performed by a speaker, or a combination thereof. The production is performed.

Specifically, when the start lever is operated, a random value for production is extracted in addition to the random value used for determining the internal winning combination described above. When the random value for the effect is extracted, the effect content determining means determines the effect to be executed this time from a plurality of types of effect contents associated with the internal winning combination by lottery. This effect content determining means is one of various processing means (processing functions) included in the sub-control circuit described later.

Next, when the effect content is determined by the effect content determining means, the effect execution means responds in conjunction with each opportunity such as when the reel starts rotating, when each reel stops rotating, and when it is determined whether or not there is a prize. To execute. In this way, in pachislot, for example, by executing the production content associated with the internal winning combination, the opportunity to know or anticipate the determined internal winning combination (in other words, the combination of symbols to be aimed at) is a game. It is provided to the player and can improve the interest of the player.

When the "bell spilled eyes" were displayed, the symbol combination of the small winning combination related to the "bell" in the symbol combination table shown in FIGS. 16 to 19 described later could not be stopped and displayed on the effective line (missed). It's time.

In the RT1 state, when the "RT2 transition lip" is won, the main game state shifts from the RT1 state to the RT2 state. The "RT2 transition lip" winning is when the replay combination related to the combination name "C_RT2 lip" in the symbol combination table shown in FIG. 16 described later wins a prize.

In the RT2 state, when the "RT3 transition lip" is won, the main game state shifts from the RT2 state to the RT3 state. The "RT3 transition lip" prize is when the replay combination related to the combination name "C_RT3 lip_1" or "C_RT3 lip_1" in the symbol combination table shown in FIG. 16 described later wins a prize. Further, in the RT2 state, when the "bell spilled eye" is displayed or when the "RT1 transition lip" is won, the main game state shifts from the RT2 state to the RT1 state. The "RT1 transition lip" prize is when the replay combination related to the combination name "C_RT1 lip" in the symbol combination table shown in FIG. 16 described later wins a prize.

In the RT3 state, when the "bell spilled eye" is displayed or when the "RT1 transition lip" is won, the main game state shifts from the RT3 state to the RT1 state. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, a transition mode in which the main gaming state shifts from the RT3 state to the RT2 state, and a transition in which the RT0 state and the RT1 state directly shift to the RT3 state (ART state described later). No aspect is provided.

Further, in the general middle state (any of the RT0 state to the RT3 state), when the internal winning combination (BB combination) related to the BB wins, the main gaming state shifts from the general medium state to the BB internal medium state. .. Then, in the BB internal medium state, when the BB combination wins (when the symbol combination related to the BB combination is stopped and displayed on the valid line), the BB (RB) is activated, and the main game state is changed from the BB internal medium state. It shifts to the BB state. The BB combination is a specific example of the special internal winning combination according to the present invention, and the BB state is a specific example of the special gaming state according to the present invention.

In the BB state, when the number of medals exceeding the specified number (305 in the present embodiment) is paid out, the BB ends and the main game state shifts from the BB state to the RT0 state.

If the MB combination is won in each of the RT0 state to the RT3 state, the MB (CB) is activated, and the main game state changes from the RT0 state to the RT3 state to the RT0 o'clock MB state to the RT3 o'clock MB state, respectively. Transition. When the number of medals exceeding the specified number (45 in this embodiment) is paid out in each MB state, the MB ends and the main game state changes from the MB state to the corresponding RT state. Transition.

<Various ball ejection states managed by the main control circuit>
The pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment is a gaming machine having an ART function in which an RT function and an AT function operate at the same time. Then, in the present embodiment, whether or not the ART (AT) function is activated is determined by the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93). That is, in the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the operation / non-operation of the ART (AT) function, which directly affects the ball ejection performance (privilege granting performance), is managed by the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93). Therefore, the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93) also manages a state related to the payout (medal payout) performance (hereinafter, referred to as “ball payout state”) as a game state.

Here, with reference to FIG. 10, the type of ball ejection state managed by the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93) of the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, and the transition mode (game flow) between various ball ejection states. explain. Note that FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a game flow (transition flow between various ball ejection states) in the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment.

In the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the ball ejection states mainly managed by the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93) are "normal state", "state at the time of introducing CZ (chance zone)", and "state at the time of introduction of CZ (chance zone)" as shown in FIG. There are seven types of ball ejection states called "CZ in progress state", "ART preparing state", "ART state", "additional specialization state", and "ART fall waiting state". Further, although not shown in FIG. 10, when the setting is changed, a lottery process different from these ball ejection states is performed, so that the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93) manages the state at the time of setting change as the ball ejection state. .. The ART state is a specific example of the notified gaming state and the advantageous gaming state according to the present invention.

In addition, the normal state, the state at the time of introducing CZ, and the state during CZ are basically the ball ejection states in which the RT state mainly corresponds to any of the RT0 state to the RT2 state, and the AT function does not operate. It is in a ball state. The ART state, the additional specialization state, and the ART fall waiting state are basically the ball ejection states in which the RT state corresponds to the RT3 state and the AT function is activated. Further, the ART preparing state is a ball ejection state in which the RT state mainly corresponds to any of the RT0 state to the RT2 state, and the ball ejection state in which the AT function is activated.

In the normal state, 40 games are played in one cycle. In the normal state, the game is mainly performed to determine the result of the ART lottery performed in the game in the CZ state and the parameters that affect the game content (privilege obtained by ART) after the transition to ART. Specifically, the rank of the result of the ART lottery and the ranks of multiple types of cards (attack-type cards, defense-type cards, and reward-type cards described later) related to the game content of ART are increased (acquire high-ranked cards). Various games are played. The contents of the plurality of types of cards that can be obtained in the normal state will be described in detail later.

The number of games in one cycle (number of periodic games) in the normal state is not limited to 40 games, and can be changed as appropriate depending on, for example, a model. Further, in the present embodiment, an example in which the number of periodic games in the normal state is a fixed value has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the number of periodic games in the normal state is variable according to the gaming situation. You may do it. In this case, for example, a configuration may be provided in which a predetermined number of periodic games can be selected from a plurality of types of periodic games, or a configuration in which a shortened lottery is performed to shorten the number of remaining periodic games during the cycle is provided. May be good.

The state at the time of introducing CZ is a ball ejection state that shifts after the normal game period (40 games) is completed. The game period in the state when the CZ is introduced is one game, and in the game in the state when the CZ is introduced, for example, a process for determining the game period in the state during the CZ, a battle victory rewriting lottery process, and the like are performed.

The CZ in-progress state is a ball ejection state in which the game shifts after the game period (1 game) in the CZ introduction state is completed. During the game period in the CZ middle game state, a lottery game for determining ART winning / non-winning is mainly performed. The contents of the ART lottery performed on the main side in the CZ middle state will be described in detail later. In addition, in the production in the CZ middle state, a battle production is performed between the main character (hereinafter, abbreviated as "main character") and a predetermined enemy character (hereinafter, abbreviated as "enemy character"), and when the ART winning is confirmed, the main character is produced. The content that the character wins over the enemy character is produced, and when the ART non-winning is confirmed, the content that the main character is defeated by the enemy character is produced.

The ART preparing state is a ball ejection state that shifts when the ART winning (winning of the main character) is determined in the game in the CZ middle state. In the ART preparation state, a game for shifting the RT state to the RT3 state is mainly performed, and a push order navigation for shifting the RT state to the RT3 state occurs. In addition, in the game in the CZ middle state, when the ART non-winning (defeat of the main character) is determined, the ball ejection state shifts from the CZ middle state to the normal state, and from the next game to the normal state of the next cycle. The game is started.

In the ART state, when a small winning combination (such as a batting order bell described later) having a correct answer in the pressing order of the stop button is internally won, the AT function notifies information on the pressing order of the correct answer corresponding to the type of the small winning combination. .. At this time, on the main control circuit 91 side (hereinafter referred to as "main side"), the instruction display unit (not shown) included in the information display 24 causes the instruction monitor number corresponding to the type of small combination to be information on the pressing order. Is notified as. On the other hand, on the sub control circuit 101 side (hereinafter referred to as "sub side"), an effect of displaying the pressing order information (pressing order number) of the three stop buttons is performed on the display screen of the liquid crystal display device 11. In addition, the initial number of games of ART is determined by the game of the additional specialization state performed immediately after the ball ejection state shifts to the ART state.

The additional specialization state is a ball ejection state during the ART state, and is a ball ejection state in which an additional lottery for the number of ART games is mainly performed. That is, the additional specialized state becomes a specialized zone during the ART state. In the present embodiment, at the start of the ART game period and when the game in the ART state wins the lottery for adding the number of specialized games described later, the payout state shifts to the added specialized state.

The initial values of the game period (the number of specialized games described later) and the continuation rate (specialized final game loop rate described later) in the additional specialized state are specific cards acquired in the normal state (reward card described later). It is determined based on, and is set when the transition to the ART state is determined. After that, if the lottery for adding the number of specialized games to be performed when a predetermined condition is satisfied is won, basically, the number of specialized games and the continuation rate are updated (added) each time.

Further, when the transition to the additional specialized state is determined in the ART state, the game in the additional specialized state is started as an interrupt process from the next game. The number of ART games is not counted during the additional specialized game period (the number of remaining ART games does not decrease). Then, when the game period in the additional specialized state ends, the payout state returns to the ART state, and the game in the ART state is restarted from the number of remaining ART games at the time of entering the additional specialized state.

The ART fall waiting state is a ball ejection state that shifts when the game period of the ART state ends. In the ART fall waiting state, the game is played until the RT state shifts (falls) from the RT3 state to the RT1 state. Then, when the RT state shifts from the RT3 state to the RT1 state in the ART fall waiting state, the ball ejection state shifts from the ART fall waiting state to the normal state, and the normal state of the first cycle (first cycle) from the next game. The game is started.

When the BB wins in the above-mentioned normal state and ART state, the game from the time of winning the BB to the end of the BB is performed as an interrupt process, and during that period, the number of remaining cycle games in the normal state and the ART state The subtraction (counting) process of the number of remaining ART games in is not performed.

In addition, when the BB is won in the state at the time of introducing CZ or in the state during CZ, the ART transition is confirmed. In this case, after the winning BB state game is digested, the ball ejection state shifts to the ART state.

Although not shown in FIG. 10, in each of the normal state and the ART state, two types of modes, "low probability mode" and "high probability mode", are provided as the lottery state, and the latter mode is better. , The winning probability in the lottery process is higher than in the former mode.

Further, although not shown in FIG. 10, in a normal state, a plurality of types of stage modes are provided. Specifically, a normal stage (stages A to C described later) corresponding to the card type (attribute) and a special stage not associated with the card type are provided. In the normal stage, the card with the corresponding attribute is easily ranked up. On the other hand, in the special stage, all the cards are configured to be ranked up with the same probability. The normal stage and the special stage are specific examples of the modes according to the present invention.

[Various lottery processes performed on the main side in each game state]
In the present embodiment, on the main side, the game state is managed by the combination of the above-mentioned ball ejection state and the main game state (RT state, bonus (BB, MB) state, BB internal medium state), and in each game state, the game state is managed. Perform a predetermined lottery process as appropriate. Here, the types of lottery processing executed in each combination of the ball ejection state and the main game state will be described together. In addition, when the game state other than the combination of the ball ejection state and the main gaming state shown below, for example, the ball ejection state is the normal state and the main gaming state is the BB internal medium state or the SBB winning game, the ball ejection state When is in the CZ middle state and the main game state is the BB internal medium state or the BB winning game, when the ball ejection state is the ART state and the main game state is the BB internal medium state, the ball ejection state is added. The lottery is not performed when the game is in the changed state and the main game state is in the BB internal middle state.

(1) When the ball ejection state is the normal state and the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state, the MB winning game or the MB state In the unit game in this case, when the lever is turned on, the card promotion lottery, the card promotion attribute lottery, The card promotion number lottery and the lottery state transition lottery are performed in this order. The state in which the main game state is "No BB internal medium state" means that the main game state is neither a BB winning game, a BB internal medium state, a BB state, an MB winning game, or an MB state. Say. Further, "at the time of lever on" is a time when the player's game start operation with respect to the start lever 23 is detected.

The card promotion lottery is a lottery for whether or not to rank up the cards, and the card promotion attribute lottery is a lottery for selecting the type of card to be ranked up (either attack type, defense type, or reward type). The card promotion count lottery is a lottery for determining the number of card rank-ups. Further, the lottery state transition lottery is a lottery for determining the lottery state (either high accuracy or low accuracy).

(2) When the ball ejection state is the normal state and the main game state is the NBB winning game In the unit game in this case, when the lever is turned on, the card promotion lottery, the card promotion attribute lottery, the card promotion number lottery, the enemy at the time of NBB winning The character promotion lottery and the lottery state transition lottery are performed in this order.

In this embodiment, seven types of enemy characters A to G are prepared as enemy characters to be played against the main character in the CZ state, and the probability that the main character wins is higher. The order is from enemy characters G to A. In the NBB winning enemy character promotion lottery, it is a lottery that determines whether or not to change the currently set enemy characters (enemy characters A to E) to enemy character F (enemy character that makes it easier to win ART). If the currently set enemy character is enemy character F and the enemy character promotion lottery is won at the time of NBB winning, the type of enemy character is changed to enemy character G (enemy character whose ART winning is confirmed). ..

(3) When the ball ejection state is the normal state and the main game state is the NBB state In the unit game in this case, when the lever is turned on, the card promotion lottery, the card promotion attribute lottery, the card promotion number lottery, and the enemy character at the time of NBB winning The promotion lottery and the lottery state transition lottery are performed in this order.

(4) When the ball ejection state is the state at the time of CZ introduction, and the main game state is the no BB internal medium state, the NBB winning game or the MB winning game. In the unit game in this case, the CZ victory rewriting lottery and the CZ are performed when the lever is turned on. The specified number of games shortening lottery is performed in this order.

The CZ victory rewrite lottery is not ART when the rank of all the cards is "0" at the end of the game in the normal state of the cycle other than the first cycle (when the ball ejection state shifts to the state at the time of introducing CZ). This is a lottery for deciding whether or not to change (rewrite) the result of winning confirmation (defeat of the main character) to the result of winning confirmation of ART (winning of the main character). The lottery result is referred to when the ART non-winning is confirmed (the main character is defeated) in the game in the CZ state, and if the lottery is won, the ART non-winning is performed at this timing. Confirmation (defeat of the main character) is rewritten to confirmation of ART winning (victory of the main character). Further, the CZ-specified number of games shortened lottery is a shortened lottery of the number of games in the CZ middle state (the number of CZ-specified games) starting from the next game.

(5) When the ball ejection state is the state at the time of introducing the CZ and the main game state is the BB state In the unit game in this case, an additional lottery for the number of ART games is performed when the lever is turned on. Then, when the lottery is won, the lottery result (the number of additional games of ART) is added to the number of remaining ART games in the ART state that shifts after the end of the CZ middle state.

(6) When the ball ejection state is in the CZ medium state and the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state or the MB winning game In this case, in the unit game, the first to third battle offense and defense lottery and card skill are performed when the lever is turned on. The activation lottery is performed in this order. In the present embodiment, ART winning / non-winning is determined by these two lottery.

The first to third battle offense and defense lottery determines whether or not the life value of the main character or the life value of the enemy character, which will be described later, is subtracted, the increase / decrease value of the life value of the main character, or the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character. It is a lottery for. The card skill activation lottery is a lottery for deciding whether or not to further reflect the skill effect described later of each card on the lottery result based on the lottery result determined in the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery. is there. Then, if the life value of the enemy character becomes "0" or less as a result of the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery and the card skill activation lottery (increase / decrease in the life value of one of the main character and the enemy character), the ART win ( Battle victory) is confirmed. On the other hand, if the life value of the main character becomes "0" or less as a result of the card skill activation lottery, ART non-winning (battle defeat) is confirmed. The details of the ART winning / non-winning determination process by the 1st to 3rd battle offensive and defensive lottery and the card skill activation lottery will be described in detail later.

Further, in the unit game in this case, the stage lottery and the enemy character lottery are performed in this order at the time of the third stop of the reel.

In this embodiment, as described above, in the normal state, a separate stage mode is provided for each type of card. Then, in the stage lottery, the stage mode in the normal state game period of the next cycle is determined. Further, in the enemy character lottery, the enemy character to play against the main character is determined in the game in the CZ state performed after the end of the game period in the normal state of the next cycle.

(7) When the ball ejection state is in the CZ middle state and the main game state is the BB state In the unit game in this case, an additional lottery for the number of ART games is performed when the lever is turned on. Then, when the lottery is won, the lottery result (the number of additional games of ART) is added to the number of remaining ART games in the ART state that shifts after the end of the CZ middle state.

(8) When the ball ejection state is in the CZ middle state and the main game state is in the MB state In the unit game in this case, the MB middle point lottery is performed when the lever is turned on. In the MB medium point lottery, the damage (subtracted value of the life value) to be added to the enemy character in the CZ medium state is determined. Then, when the lottery is won, the life value corresponding to the lottery result is subtracted from the current life value of the enemy character.

(9) When the ball ejection state is in the ART preparation state, and the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state, the SBB winning game, the MB winning game, or the MB state. In this case, the unit game is when the lever is turned on and when the ART is started. An additional lottery is performed for the number of games in the specialized state (the number of specialized games).

(10) When the ball ejection state is in the ART preparation state and the main game state is the NBB winning game In the unit game in this case, the number of ART games is added to the lottery when the lever is turned on, and the addition is specialized at the start of ART.

(25) When the ball ejection state is the state when the setting is changed and the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state In the unit game in this case, the first cycle game number determination lottery, the card rank determination lottery, and the stage lottery are performed when the lever is turned on. And the enemy character lottery is done in this order.

The first cycle game number determination lottery is a lottery for determining the number of cycle games in the first normal state to be executed after the setting is changed. In the card rank determination lottery, a lottery is performed for each card type, and the initial rank of each card when the setting is changed is determined. In the stage lottery, the stage mode in each normal state game period of the first cycle and the second cycle is determined. Further, in the enemy character lottery, the enemy character to play against the main character is determined in the game in the CZ state performed after the end of each normal state game period in the first cycle and the second cycle.

<Type of card acquired in normal state>
In the normal game period (1 cycle = 40 games), a game of acquiring three types of cards (attack type, defense type, and reward type) (increasing the card rank) is performed. Attack-type cards and defense-type cards are cards that affect the winning / non-winning results of ART (AT) (hereinafter referred to as "skill effects"), and reward-type cards are given when winning an ART lottery. It is a card that affects the game content (operation content of the AT function) of the ART to be performed, that is, the content of the privilege given to the player (skill effect). The attack-type card and the defense-type card show a specific example of the first parameter and the parameter according to the present invention, and the reward-type card shows a specific example of the second parameter according to the present invention. It is a thing.

By providing these three types of cards, not only the winning / non-winning of the ART (AT) but also the contents of the gaming state that is given to the player when the winning of the ART (AT) is won before the ART winning. Therefore, it is possible to raise the player's expectation for the game in the normal state. If the reward card does not win the ART (AT), it has no effect on the subsequent games, so that the probability of winning the rank-up lottery of the reward card can be increased accordingly. .. In this case, it is possible to further improve the interest of the player's game with respect to the game in the normal state.

The attack-type card, defense-type card, and reward-type card are all in the RT1 state when the non-winning (battle defeat) of ART (AT) is confirmed in the CZ state, or in the ART fall waiting state. When it shifts (falls) to, it is reset to the initial value ("0"). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, when the non-winning (battle defeat) of ART (AT) is confirmed, only the reward card may be reset to the initial value (“0”). Good. Further, when resetting each card, a predetermined rank may be set as an initial value from a plurality of types of ranks by lottery or the like. The contents of each card (correspondence between rank and skill effect) will be explained below.

[Attack system (attack attribute) card]
FIG. 11 shows a table summarizing the ranks (levels) and skill effects of various attack cards that can be acquired. In the present embodiment, 11 types of attack cards having a card rank of "0" to "10" are provided as attack cards. Further, when these attack cards are classified by rarity (rareness), as shown in FIG. 11, they are classified into three types of rarities marked as "R", "SR", and "MR". Specifically, the attack-type cards with card ranks "0" to "4" are cards with rarity "R", and the attack-type cards with card ranks "5" to "8" are cards with rarity "SR". , Card ranks "9" and "10" attack cards are rarity "MR" cards. The order of rarity is "MR", "SR", and "R" from the highest.

The skill effect of the attack card is mainly based on the lottery result (see the battle offense and defense lottery table of FIGS. 79 to 82 described later) of the first to third battle offense and defense lottery described later (see FIG. 219 described later). It is to reduce the life value of the enemy character. The skill effect of this attack-type card is activated when the card skill activation lottery described later (see FIG. 218 described later) is won. The winning probability of this card skill activation lottery differs depending on the card rank of the attacking card, and an attacking card having a winning probability of 100% is also provided.

Specifically, "no skill effect" is set for the attack card (initial card) having a card rank of "0". Therefore, if the card rank of the attack card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "0", the lottery result of the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later (no offense and defense, life value of the main character) will be displayed. The subtraction or the life value of the enemy character is subtracted as it is, and is reflected in the life value of the main character or the life value of the enemy character (the process of increasing / decreasing or maintaining the life value is performed). The life value of the enemy character is a specific example of the first determination point according to the present invention, and the life value of the main character is a specific example of the second determination point according to the present invention.

As for the skill effect of the attack card with card rank "1", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, there is a 25% chance that "100" will be added to the attack value of the main character (the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character) ("counterattack probability 25% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the attacking card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "1", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 1st battle offense and defense lottery described later. In addition, when the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 25%), which will be described later, is won, the life value of the enemy character is subtracted by "100". That is, in this case, both the life value of the main character and the life value of the enemy character are subtracted. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 25%) is not a winning, only the life value of the main character is subtracted.

As for the skill effect of the attack card with card rank "2", the result of the main character attacking (the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character) was selected as the result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In this case, there is a 50% chance that "100" will be added to the attack value of the main character (the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character) ("pursuit probability 50% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the attack card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "2", and the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. If you win the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 50%), which will be described later, the value obtained by adding "100" to the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character selected by the battle offense and defense lottery. Is subtracted from the life value of the enemy character. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 50%) is not won, only the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character selected by the battle offense and defense lottery is subtracted from the life value of the enemy character. To.

As for the skill effect of the attack card with card rank "3", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, there is a 50% chance that "100" will be added to the attack value of the main character (the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character) ("counterattack probability 50% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the attack card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "3", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later.

In this case, be sure to add "300" to the attack value of the main character (subtract value of the life value of the enemy character) ("attack power +300"). Therefore, the card rank of the attacking card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "7", and the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character as a result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. When is selected, the value obtained by adding "300" to the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character selected by the battle offense and defense lottery is always subtracted from the life value of the enemy character.

As for the skill effect of the attack card with card rank "8", the result of the main character attacking (the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character) was selected as the result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In this case, be sure (with a 100% probability) to quadruple the attack value of the main character (subtract value of the life value of the enemy character) ("4 times the attack power"). Therefore, the card rank of the attacking card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "8", and the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character as a result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. When is selected, the value obtained by multiplying the subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character by 4 is always subtracted from the life value of the enemy character.

The skill effect of the attack card with card rank "9" will be described later when the chance role (internal winning role related to the main lottery flag other than the main lottery flags "missing", "replay" and "bell" described later) is won. Regardless of the lottery result of the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery, the lottery result is rewritten to win confirmation (ART win) ("Special move is activated when a chance role is established"). Therefore, if the card rank of the attacking card acquired at the time of introduction of CZ is "9" and the chance combination is won as the internal winning combination, the ART winning is always confirmed.

In addition, the skill effect of the attack card with card rank "10" is selected by the result of the main character attacking (the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character) as the result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. If so, the lottery result is rewritten to win confirmation (ART win) (“one-shot deadly”). Therefore, the card rank of the attacking card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "10", and the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character as a result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later is When selected, the ART winning is always confirmed.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the higher the card rank (rareness) of the attacking card, the easier it is to win the battle (it becomes easier to win the ART).

In the present embodiment, in the first to third battle offense and defense lottery described later, when the result that the hero character is damaged as the lottery result (the result of subtracting the life value of the hero character) is selected, mainly. This is the case when "out of place" is determined as the internal winning combination (see the battle offensive and defensive lottery tables of FIGS. 79 to 82 described later). Therefore, the processing for activating the skill effect of the attacking cards of card ranks "1" and "3" is substantially limited to the "missing" time.

In addition, in the game in the CZ medium state, the MB role (internal winning role related to the abbreviation "F_MB1" or "F_MB2" described later) is used to activate the skill effect of the attack cards having card ranks "9" and "10". It is also executed when winning.

Further, in the process of activating the skill effect of the attack cards having card ranks "9" and "10", in the present embodiment, as a method of rewriting the lottery result of the battle offense and defense lottery to victory confirmation (ART win), as will be described later. , A method of setting a flag indicating victory confirmation (ART winning) to the on state is used, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in the present embodiment, the maximum value of the initial life value of the enemy character (initial life value of the enemy character A) is "2000" (see FIG. 14 described later), so that the card ranks "9" and "10" are used. In the process of activating the skill effect of an attack card, a method of adding "2000" to the attack value of the main character (subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character) may be adopted. In this case, the life value of the enemy character is always "0" or less regardless of the type of the enemy character by the activation process of the skill effect of the attack card, and the battle victory is confirmed (ART winning).

[Defense system (defense attribute) card]
FIG. 12 shows a table summarizing the ranks (levels) and skill effects of various defensive cards that can be acquired. In the present embodiment, 11 types of defensive cards having a card rank of "0" to "10" are provided as defensive cards. Further, when these defensive cards are classified by rarity (rareness), as shown in FIG. 12, they are classified into three types of rarities marked as "R", "SR" and "MR". Specifically, the defensive cards with card ranks "0" to "4" are cards with rarity "R", and the defensive cards with card ranks "5" to "8" are cards with rarity "SR". , Card ranks "9" and "10" defensive cards are rarity "MR" cards.

The skill effect of the defensive card is mainly based on the lottery result (see the battle offensive and defensive lottery table of FIGS. 79 to 82 described later) of the first to third battle offensive and defensive lottery (see FIG. 219 described later). The main thing is to increase the life value of the main character. The skill effect of this defensive card is activated when the card skill activation lottery described later (see FIG. 218 described later) is won. The winning probability of the card skill activation lottery described later differs depending on the card rank of the defensive card, and a defensive card having a winning probability of 100% is also provided.

Specifically, "no skill effect" is set for the defensive card (initial card) having a card rank of "0". Therefore, if the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "0", the lottery result of the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later (no offense and defense, life value of the main character) will be displayed. Subtraction or subtraction of the life value of the enemy character) is reflected in the life value of the main character or the life value of the enemy character as it is (processing to increase / decrease or maintain the life value is performed).

The skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "1" has a 50% chance of the life value of the main character when "No offense and defense" is selected as the result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. Add "100" (damage recovery value) to ("double recovery activation"). Therefore, the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "1", and "no offense and defense" is selected as the lottery result by the first to third battle offense and defense lottery described later, and will be described later. If you win the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 50%), "100" is added to the life value of the main character. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 50%) is not won, the life value of the main character is not added.

As for the skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "2", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, the lottery result is rewritten to "no offense and defense" with a 25% probability ("avoidance rate 25% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "2", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In addition, when the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 25%), which will be described later, is won, the lottery result of the battle offense and defense lottery is rewritten as "no offense and defense", and the life value of the main character is not reduced. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 25%) is not a winning, the life value of the main character is subtracted.

The skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "3" is to add "500" to the initial life value of the main character at the start of the battle (at the beginning of the game period in the CZ state) ("initial life +500"). ). Therefore, if the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introduction of CZ is "3", the initial life value of the main character is always "500" at the start of the battle (with a 100% probability). Is added.

As for the skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "4", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, the lottery result is rewritten to "no offense and defense" with a 33% probability ("avoidance rate 33% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "4", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In addition, when the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 33%), which will be described later, is won, the lottery result of the battle offense and defense lottery is rewritten as "no offense and defense", and the life value of the main character is not reduced. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 33%) is not a winning, the life value of the main character is subtracted.

The skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "5" is always (with 100% probability) the main character when "No offense and defense" is selected as the result of the lottery by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. Adding "100" (damage recovery value) to the character's life value ("recovery activation 4 times"). Therefore, when the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "5", and "no offense and defense" is selected as the lottery result by the first to third battle offense and defense lottery described later. Is added with "100" to the life value of the main character.

The skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "6" is to add "1000" to the initial life value of the main character at the start of the battle (at the beginning of the game period in the CZ state) ("initial life +1000"). ). Therefore, if the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "6", the initial life value of the main character will always be "1000" at the start of the battle (with a 100% probability). Is added.

As for the skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "7", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, the lottery result is rewritten to "no offense and defense" with a probability of 50% ("avoidance rate 50% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "7", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In addition, when the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 50%), which will be described later, is won, the lottery result of the battle offense and defense lottery is rewritten as "no offense and defense", and the life value of the main character is not reduced. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 50%) is not won, the life value of the main character is subtracted.

The skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "8" is to add "1500" to the initial life value of the main character at the start of the battle (at the beginning of the game period in the CZ state) ("initial life +1500"). ). Therefore, if the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "8", the initial life value of the main character will always be "1500" at the start of the battle (with a 100% probability). Is added.

As for the skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "9", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, the lottery result is rewritten to "no offense and defense" with a probability of 66% ("avoidance rate 66% UP"). Therefore, the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "9", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In addition, when the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 66%), which will be described later, is won, the lottery result of the battle offense and defense lottery is rewritten as "no offense and defense", and the life value of the main character is not reduced. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 66%) is not a winning, the life value of the main character is subtracted.

As for the skill effect of the defensive card with card rank "10", the result that the main character is damaged as a result of the lottery (the result of subtracting the life value of the main character) is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In that case, there is a 90% chance that the lottery result will be rewritten as "no offense and defense" ("transcendence avoidance"). Therefore, the card rank of the defensive card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "10", and the result of subtracting the life value of the main character as the lottery result is selected by the 1st to 3rd battle offense and defense lottery described later. In addition, when the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 90%), which will be described later, is won, the lottery result of the battle offense and defense lottery is rewritten as "no offense and defense", and the life value of the main character is not reduced. If the card skill activation lottery (lottery with a winning probability of 90%) is not a winning, the life value of the main character is subtracted.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the higher the card rank (rareness) of the defensive card, the easier it is to win the battle (it becomes easier to win the ART).

In the present embodiment, in the battle offense and defense lottery described later, when the result that the hero character is damaged as the lottery result (the result of subtracting the life value of the hero character) is selected, mainly as the internal winning role, " This is the case when "off" is determined (see the battle offensive and defensive lottery tables of FIGS. 79 to 82 described later). Therefore, the process of activating the skill effect of the defensive cards of card ranks "2", "4", "7", "9", and "10" is substantially limited to the "missing" time.

The skill effect of the reward card is the number of games in the additional specialized state (special) that is executed during the ART state when the transition to the ART state is confirmed (when the battle victory is confirmed) in the game in the CZ state. It is to set the initial value of the number of converted games) and the continuation rate of the additional specialized state (specialized final game loop rate). The skill effect of the reward card changes according to the card rank of the reward card. That is, the game content of ART changes according to the card rank of the reward card.

A skill effect called "no skill effect" is set for the reward card (initial card) having a card rank of "0". In "No skill effect", "5" is set in the specialization counter for counting the number of games in the additional specialization state, and 1% is set in the specialization final game loop rate. The specialization final game loop rate is the winning probability of the loop lottery performed in the final game in the additional specialization state (the game in which the value of the specialization counter is "1").

That is, if the card rank of the reward card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "0" and the transition to the ART state is confirmed (battle victory is confirmed), the addition executed at the start of ART is added. A minimum of 5 games is guaranteed as the number of games in the specialized state. In the present embodiment, a lottery for adding the number of specialized games is performed even in the state of preparing for ART, and when the lottery is won, the lottery result (the number of specialized games) is assigned to the rank of the reward card. It is added to the initial value of the number of specialized games determined based on.

In the game in the additional specialized state, the number of ART additional games of 10 games or more is acquired for each game (see the lottery table for adding the number of special ART games in FIGS. 86 and 87 described later). Therefore, in Pachislot 1 of the present embodiment, if the card rank of the reward card acquired at the time of introducing CZ is "0" and the transition to the ART state is confirmed, the initial game of ART At least 50 games are guaranteed as a number.

A skill effect called "normal drive 6G" is set for the reward card of card rank "1". In the skill effect of "normal drive 6G", "6" is set in the specialization counter, and 1% is set in the specialization final game loop rate.

Five games are guaranteed as the number of games in the additional specialized state. In this case, at least 50 games are guaranteed as the initial number of ART games.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the skill effects of the (ranked up) offensive cards and defensive cards acquired by the time of the introduction of CZ determine the battle offensive and defensive lottery performed during the game period during the CZ state. It is reflected in the result (lottery result). As mentioned above, the defensive cards include not only the defensive cards of the rank that affect the decision result of the battle offensive and defensive lottery, but also the initial hero character that does not affect the decision result of the battle offensive and defensive lottery. Some cards have a rank that is reflected in the life value (see Fig. 12). In addition, some offensive cards and defensive cards have ranks that affect the decision result of the battle offensive and defensive lottery only when a specific internal winning combination such as "missing" is determined (FIG. 11). And see the rank of "Limited time off" in FIG. 12).

The attack card, the defense card, and the reward card are basically always displayed on the display screen of the liquid crystal display device 11 during the game period in the normal state, when the CZ is introduced, and during the CZ middle state. At this time, each card is displayed with a card pattern corresponding to (suggesting) its rank. Therefore, during the normal game period (excluding the first cycle after changing the settings), the card design changes each time the rank of each card rises, but during the game period when CZ is introduced and during the CZ state, CZ The display of the card pattern corresponding to the rank of each card acquired (ranked up) by the time of introduction is maintained. Further, as the display form of each card, the rank or rarity of each card may be directly displayed. However, the details of the skill effect of each card are not displayed.

The attack-type card, the defense-type card, and the reward-type card described above are provided, and the cards are displayed on the display screen of the liquid crystal display device 11 in the above-described manner during the game period in the normal state, when the CZ is introduced, and during the CZ middle state. The following effects can be obtained by constantly displaying on.

When attacking cards and defensive cards with various skill effects as described above are provided, the contents of the cards acquired (ranked up) in the normal state game until the start of the game in the CZ medium state are the CZ. Since it is reflected in the game in the medium state (ART lottery), the expectation can be increased every time the card is acquired in the normal state.

Further, in the present embodiment, when a card (attack type and defense type card) that is unconditionally reflected for the game in the CZ state and a specific decision result (ART winning) are obtained in the CZ state. Since a card (reward card) that is reflected only is provided, it is possible to give the player a different sense of expectation depending on the type of card to be acquired (ranked up).

<Outline of ART lottery performed in CZ state>
Next, the contents of the ART lottery using the offensive card and the defensive card, which are carried out in the game in the CZ state, will be described. In the game in the CZ state, lottery processing for determining the presence / absence and increase / decrease value of the life value of the main character, or the presence / absence of subtraction of the life value of the enemy character and the subtraction value (hereinafter, "battle offense and defense""Lottery") and lottery processing (hereinafter referred to as "card skill activation lottery") to determine whether to activate the skill effects of offensive and defensive cards acquired in the game in the normal state are performed, and these are performed. The winning / non-winning of ART is determined based on the lottery result of.

Specifically, for each unit game, first, whether or not the life value of the main character is increased or decreased and whether or not the life value is increased or decreased, or whether or not the life value of the enemy character is subtracted and the subtracted value is determined by the battle offense and defense lottery. In the battle offense and defense lottery, the life values of both the main character and the enemy character are not subtracted (no offense and defense), the life value of the main character is subtracted (damaged), and the life value of the main character is added. Either (damage recovery) or the result of subtracting the life value of the enemy character (attack) is obtained as the lottery result.

Next, based on the result of the battle offense and defense lottery, the card skill activation lottery is performed, and whether or not the skill effect of the offensive card and the defensive card is activated is determined. Next, when the card skill activation lottery is won (there is a 100% chance of winning), the skill effects of the offensive and defensive cards are reflected in the result of the battle offensive and defensive lottery.

Specifically, according to the rank of each card, for example, in addition to the processing of increasing / decreasing the life value of the main character based on the result of the battle offense / defense lottery and / or the processing of subtracting the life value of the enemy character, the skill effect of each card Based on the activation, the life value of the main character is added and / or the life value of the enemy character is subtracted. Further, for example, the rewriting process of the result of the battle offense and defense lottery is performed according to the rank of each card. For example, when the rank of the defense card is "3", "6" or "8", the skill effect is not the result of the battle offense and defense lottery, but the initial life value of the main character ( It is reflected in the life value at the start of the battle).

Then, as a result of reflecting the lottery result of the card skill activation lottery, if the life value of the enemy character becomes "0" or less (battle victory), the ART win is confirmed and the life value of the main character is "0" or less (battle). If it becomes defeated), ART non-winning will be confirmed.

The game period in the CZ medium state (number of CZ specified games: upper limit value (ceiling value) is 70 games) is determined by the game in the state when CZ is introduced, but the digestion game in the CZ medium state is the number of games in this game period. If either the life value of the main character or the life value of the enemy character does not become "0" or less (when the victory or defeat of the battle is not decided), the ART is won.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the life value of the main character and the life value of the enemy character are simultaneously "0" or less, the ART winning (battle victory) is determined. However, the present invention has the present invention. Not limited to this, in this case, ART non-winning (battle defeat) may be applied. Further, in this case, a predetermined determination (lottery or the like) may be performed to determine ART winning / non-winning (battle victory / defeat).

In the CZ state, when the ART winning is confirmed, the ART winning confirmation flag (hereinafter, also referred to as "winning confirmation flag") is set to the ON state, and when the ART non-winning is confirmed, ART is set. The non-winning confirmation flag (hereinafter, also referred to as the "defeat confirmation flag") is set to the on state. It should be noted that these flags are flags used for the transition control of the ball ejection state, and when the ART winning confirmation flag (winning confirmation flag) is set to the ON state, the ball ejection state is prepared from the CZ middle state to ART. The process of shifting to the medium state is performed, and when the ART non-winning confirmation flag (defeat confirmation flag) is set to the ON state, the process of shifting the ball ejection state from the CZ medium state to the normal state is performed.

The initial value (initial life value) of the life value of the main character and the life value of the enemy character is set in the game in the state when CZ is introduced. Here, FIG. 14 shows a table summarizing the initial life value of the main character and the initial life value of the enemy character. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, the initial life value of the main character is set to "1000". Further, in the present embodiment, six types of enemy characters A to F are provided as enemy characters, the initial life value of the enemy character A is set to "2000", and the initial life value of the enemy character B is set. It is set to "1800", and the initial life value of the enemy character C is set to "1600". Further, the initial life value of the enemy character D is set to "1500", the initial life value of the enemy character E is set to "1400", and the initial life value of the enemy character C is set to "1000".

That is, when the enemy character A is the strongest enemy character and the enemy character A is set as the enemy character, it is the most difficult for the main character to win the battle, and it is the most difficult to win the ART. On the other hand, when the enemy character F is the weakest enemy character and the enemy character F is set as the enemy character, it is easiest for the main character to win the battle, and it is easiest to win the ART. In this embodiment, an enemy character G whose ART winning is determined is also provided, and this enemy character G is an enemy when the enemy character promotion lottery, which will be described later, is won in a situation where the enemy character F is set. Set as a character.

In the ART lottery of the present embodiment, the life value of the main character and / or the life value of the enemy character is subtracted by the battle offense and defense lottery and the card skill activation lottery, and one of the life values becomes "0" or less. Although an example of determining ART winning / non-winning (battle victory / defeat) has been described, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when the life value of the main character and / or the life value of the enemy character is added by the battle offense and defense lottery and the card skill activation lottery, and one of the life values exceeds the specified value (the life value reaches a predetermined threshold value). Or when it exceeds the limit), the ART winning / non-winning (battle victory / defeat) may be determined.

<Structure of data table stored in main ROM>
Next, the configurations of various data tables stored in the main ROM 94 will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 to 49. In the following, for convenience of explanation, when explaining the data table, characteristic functions and features related to the data table will be appropriately described.

[Design arrangement table]
First, the symbol arrangement table will be described with reference to FIG. The symbol arrangement table is data that specifies the position of each symbol in each rotation direction of the left reel 3L, the middle reel 3C, and the right reel 3R, and the type of the symbol arranged at each position (hereinafter, symbol code (in FIG. 15). (Refer to the symbol code table of)) and stipulate the correspondence with.

In the symbol arrangement table, when the reel index is detected, the position of the symbol arranged in the middle region of each main reel in the frame of the reel display window 4 is defined as "0". Then, in each main reel, "0" corresponding to the symbol counter is used in the order of the reel rotation direction (direction from the symbol position "19" in FIG. 15 toward the symbol position "0") with the symbol position "0" as a reference. "" To "19" are assigned to each symbol as the symbol position. The variation display order of the symbols is the order of proceeding from the symbol position "0" to the symbol position "19".

That is, by referring to the value of the symbol counter ("0" to "19") and the symbol arrangement table, the values are displayed in the upper, middle, and lower regions of each main reel in the frame of the reel display window 4. It is possible to specify the type of symbol. For example, when the value of the symbol counter corresponding to the left reel 3L is "8", the upper, middle, and lower regions of the left reel 3L in the frame of the reel display window 4 have the symbol position "9", respectively. The symbols corresponding to "Bell 1", "Replay" at the symbol position "8", and "Blue 7" at the symbol position "7" are displayed.

[Design combination table]
Next, the symbol combination table (Nos. 1 to 4) will be described with reference to FIGS. 16 to 19. Here, in order to clarify the structure of the symbol combination table (to make it easier to see), the symbol combination table is divided into four tables of FIGS. 16 to 19, but in reality, FIGS. 16 to 19 are shown. The four tables of 19 are configured as one table.

The symbol combination table is a combination of symbols (combination and combination name) predetermined according to the type of privilege (bonus, small combination, replay), and the contents (storage area, data) and payout of the corresponding display combination code. Define the correspondence with the number of sheets.

In the present embodiment, a prize is won when the symbol combination displayed by the left reel 3L, the middle reel 3C, and the right reel 3R along the effective line (cross-up line) matches the symbol combination specified in the symbol combination table. Is determined. Then, when it is determined that the prize is won, the player is given benefits such as payout of medals, operation of replay (replay), and operation of bonus. If the symbol combination displayed along the effective line does not match any of the symbol combinations specified in the symbol combination table, it is a so-called "missing". That is, in the present embodiment, the "missing" symbol combination is specified by not specifying the symbol combination corresponding to the "missing" in the symbol combination table. The present invention is not limited to this, and a “missing” item may be provided in the symbol combination table to directly specify the “missing” symbol combination.

The various data described in the display combination code column in the symbol combination table are data for identifying the symbol combination displayed along the valid line. The "data" in the display combination code column is represented by 1-byte data, and a unique symbol combination (content of the display combination) is assigned to each bit in the data. In this embodiment, one type of symbol combination (display combination) is not necessarily assigned to each bit. For example, 12 types of symbol combinations (combination name "C_MB1" is common) are assigned to bit 7 of the storage area 1 of the display combination code (display combination storage area described later), and "1" is assigned to this bit 7. When is stored, it means that one of the 12 kinds of symbol combinations is stopped and displayed on the valid line (MB has won a prize). Further, for example, four types of symbol combinations (combination name "C_RT2 lip" is common) are assigned to bit 5 of the storage area 2 of the display combination code (display combination storage area described later), and this bit 5 is assigned. When "1" is stored, it means that one of the four types of symbol combinations is stopped and displayed on the valid line (replay has won a prize).

Further, the data of the "storage area" in the display combination code column is data for designating the symbol code storage area (see FIG. 104 described later) in which the data of the corresponding symbol combination is stored. In this embodiment, nine symbol code storage areas are provided. Then, in the present embodiment, the display combinations having the same bit pattern (1 byte data pattern) and different contents are managed as different display combinations due to the difference in the "storage area".

The numerical value described in the payout number column in the symbol combination table represents the number of medals to be paid out to the player. In this embodiment, the number of medals inserted (number of medals) per unit game is three. In the symbol combination in which a numerical value of 1 or more is given as the data of the "number of payouts", the same number of medals as the numerical value is paid out. For example, in the present embodiment, when the display combination related to the combination name "C_bell 1" is determined for the number of inserted three medals (the symbol combination related to "C_bell 1" is stopped on the effective line. If displayed), nine medals will be paid out.

Further, in the present embodiment, for example, when the display combination related to the combination name "C_Replay 1" is determined (when the symbol combination related to "C_Replay 1" is stopped and displayed on the effective line), the replay is performed. Works. Further, in the present embodiment, for example, when the display combination related to the combination name "C_BB1A" (when the symbol combination related to "C_BB1A" is stopped and displayed on the valid line) is determined, the bonus game (BB1) is activated. To do.

Further, in the present embodiment, the display combination (combination name "C_weak cherry" and "C_strong cherry") related to the cherry which is a rare role in the normal state is a small combination in which the number of medals paid out is one ( (See FIG. 19). Further, in the present embodiment, in order to display the display combination related to the cherry on the effective line even in the BB state where the number of small winning medals paid out is all 9, the cherry can be stopped and displayed during the BB state. A display combination (9 small combinations) is provided separately. Specifically, the display combination related to the combinations "C_9 weak cherries" and "C_9 strong cherries" in FIGS. 18 and 19 is a display combination (9 small cherries) related to the dedicated cherry in the BB state. ..

In addition, in the stop type of the combination name "C_strong cherry" in the normal state, the symbol combination ("cherry"-"cherry"-"cherry") called triple cherry is stopped and displayed on the effective line (cross-up line). It becomes a stop type. On the other hand, the stop type of the combination name "C_9 strong cherry" in the BB state is on the bottom line (virtual line connecting the lower area of the left reel 3L, the lower area of the middle reel 3C and the lower area of the right reel 3R). It becomes a stop type that stops and displays the triple cherries. The symbol "cherry" is a specific example of the specific symbol according to the present invention, and hereinafter, the role related to the cherry is referred to as "cherry small role".

As described above, in order to display the symbol combination related to the cherry small winning combination on the effective line even in the BB state, the cherry small winning combination dedicated to the BB state is provided as a small winning combination in which the number of medals paid out is nine. , It is possible to make all 9 medals to be paid out when a small combination is established in the BB state while making it appear that the rare combination is drawn as in the normal state. In this case, it is possible to prevent the game in the BB from becoming monotonous by increasing the types of small wins in the BB while suppressing the variation in the profit obtained in the BB.

In the present embodiment, in the unit game during the bonus, an example in which the configuration in which the number of medals paid out at the time of winning a small winning combination is constant is applied to a game machine having one effective line has been described, but the present invention has been described. Is not limited to this, and this configuration can also be applied to a game machine provided with a plurality of effective lines. In this case, the total number of medals paid out when a plurality of small wins are won at the same time on a plurality of valid lines is, for example, the number of medals paid out when a small win is won on one valid line. It is configured to be the same. For example, in a unit game during a bonus, in a game machine in which the number of medals to be paid out at the time of winning a small winning combination is 9, when a small winning combination is won only on one valid line, the winning small winning medals are paid out. When the number of cards is 9, and when small wins are simultaneously won on two valid lines during the bonus, the number of medals for one small win will be 5, and the number of medals for the other small win will be 5. The type of small winning combination and the display mode (roll) are appropriately set so that the number of cards is four.

In the present embodiment, in the symbol combination table, for example, 12 types of symbol combinations included in the combination name "C_MB1" are provided for bit 7 of the storage area 1 of the display combination code (display combination storage area described later). Although an example of collectively allocating, that is, an example of allocating one bit data to a plurality of types of symbol combinations has been described, the present invention is not limited to this. In the symbol combination table, one bit data may be assigned to one symbol combination. For example, the combination names may be set to "C_MB1_01" to "C_MB1_12" for each of the 12 types of symbol combinations included in the combination name "C_MB1", and 1-bit data may be assigned to each symbol combination. When one bit data is assigned to one symbol combination in this way, the configuration of the display combination storage area, the internal winning combination storage area, the carry-over combination storage area, and the symbol code storage area, which will be described later, is also one. The configuration is such that one symbol combination is associated with one bit data.

[Bonus activation table]
Next, the bonus operating table will be described with reference to FIG. When the bonus is activated, the bonus activation table is stored in the game status flag storage area (see FIG. 100 described later), the bonus end number counter, the game possible count counter, and the winning count counter provided in the main RAM 95. Specify the data to be used.

The game status flag is data for identifying the type of bonus game to be activated. In this embodiment, three types of BBs (BBs related to the combination names "C_BB1 (BB1A, 1B)" to "C_BB3") are provided. In the present embodiment, among these three types of BB, the BB (BB1) related to the combination name “C_BB1 (BB1A, 1B)” and the BB (BB2) related to the combination name “C_BB1 (BB2A, 2B)”. Is managed by the same game status flag (see FIG. 100 described later), but the present invention is not limited to this, and individual game status flags may be assigned to each of these BB types. Further, in the present embodiment, two types of MBs (MBs related to the combination names "C_MB1" and "C_MB2") are provided. In the present embodiment, these two types of MBs are managed by the same game state flag (see FIG. 100 described later), but the present invention is not limited to this, and individual game state flags are set for each type of MB. It may be given.

The bonus end number counter is data for managing whether or not the number of medals paid out exceeds the specified number (payout number) that triggers the end of the bonus game. In the present embodiment, the specified number (number of payouts) that triggers the end of BB is "305" regardless of the type of BB, and the specified number (number of payouts) that triggers the end of MB is MB. It is "45" regardless of the type.

The playable number counter is data for managing the number of remaining games that can be played in the operation of the RB and CB, that is, the so-called playable number of times. The operation of the RB ends when two games are played, and the operation of the CB ends when one game is played. The winning count counter is data for managing the number of remaining games in which a combination of symbols related to winning can be displayed in the operation of the RB, that is, the so-called winning count. In the present embodiment, the number of times the RB can win a prize is two.

[RT transition table]
Next, the RT transition table will be described with reference to FIG. The RT transition table is a table that defines the transition conditions of the transition flow between the RT states described with reference to FIG. 9, and specifically, the activation condition and the end condition of each RT state are specified. Then, the main control circuit 91 (main CPU 93) controls the transition operation between the RT0 state and the RT3 state with reference to the RT transition table (see the RT control process of FIG. 245 described later).

[Internal lottery table decision table]
Next, the internal lottery table determination table will be described with reference to FIG. The internal lottery table determination table defines the correspondence between the main game state, the number of medals inserted, the internal lottery table to be referred to, and the number of lottery.

Specifically, when the main game state is the general medium state (RT0 to RT3 state), one of the RT0 state internal lottery table to the RT3 state internal lottery table, which will be described later, is used based on the type of RT state. Then, "78" is set as the number of lottery. When the main game state is the BB internal medium state, the internal lottery table for the BB internal medium state described later is used, and "78" is set as the number of lottery. When the main game state is the BB state, the internal lottery table for the BB middle state described later is used, and "78" is set as the number of lottery. Further, when the main game state is the state in which the MB is operating (MB state), one of the internal lottery tables for the MB (RT0) to MB (RT3) states described later will be used according to the RT state at the time of winning the MB. Is used, and "78" is set as the number of lottery.

[Internal lottery table]
Next, various internal lottery tables will be described with reference to FIGS. 23 to 42. 23 and 24 are diagrams showing the configuration of the internal lottery table for the RT0 state, which is referred to when the main game state (RT state) is the RT0 state. 25 and 26 are diagrams showing the configuration of the internal lottery table for the RT1 state, which is referred to when the main game state (RT state) is the RT1 state. 27 and 28 are diagrams showing the configuration of the internal lottery table for the RT2 state, which is referred to when the main game state (RT state) is the RT2 state. 29 and 30 are diagrams showing the configuration of an internal lottery table for the RT34 state, which is referred to when the main game state (RT state) is the RT3 state. 31 and 32 are diagrams showing the configuration of an internal lottery table for the BB internal medium state, which is referred to when the main game state is the BB internal medium state. 33 and 34 are diagrams showing the configuration of the internal lottery table for the BB middle state, which is referred to when the main game state is the BB state. 35 and 36 are diagrams showing the configuration of the internal lottery table for the MB (RT0) state, which is referred to when the main game state is the MB state at RT0. 37 and 38 are diagrams showing the configuration of the internal lottery table for the MB (RT1) state, which is referred to when the main game state is the MB state at RT1. 39 and 40 are diagrams showing the configuration of an internal lottery table for the MB (RT2) state, which is referred to when the main game state is the MB state at RT2. Further, FIGS. 41 and 42 are diagrams showing a configuration of an internal lottery table for the MB (RT3) state, which is referred to when the main game state is the MB state at RT3. Here, in order to clarify the structure of each internal lottery table (to make it easier to see), each internal lottery table is divided into two tables, but in reality, the two tables are regarded as one table. It is composed.

In each internal lottery table, in the corresponding main game state, the winning numbers "0" to "78", the small winning combination / replay data pointer and the bonus data pointer associated with each winning number, and each winning number are displayed. The correspondence with the lottery value when it is decided is specified. In the present embodiment, the lottery value is separately defined according to the settings 1 to 6. These settings 1 to 6 are provided for the game store to adjust the expected value of the internal winning such as a bonus or a small winning combination. For example, a reset switch (not shown) and a setting key type switch 56 are used. Be changed.

The small role / replay data pointer and the bonus data pointer are data acquired as a result of the lottery performed by referring to the internal lottery table, and are based on the symbol combination determination table (see FIGS. 43 to 48 described later). This is data for designating a specified symbol combination (display combination).

In the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table in the present embodiment, the random number values extracted from the predetermined numerical range "0 to 65535" are sequentially subtracted by the lottery values defined according to each winning number. To do. Further, in each of the subtraction processes, an internal lottery is performed by determining whether or not the result of the subtraction is negative (whether or not so-called "digits" have occurred). Then, the winning number when the subtraction result becomes negative (“digits” occur) is won, and the data points assigned to the winning number are acquired.

Therefore, in the internal lottery process of the present embodiment, the larger the numerical value defined as the lottery value, the higher the probability that the data to which the lottery value is assigned (that is, the data pointer) is determined. The winning probability of each winning number can be expressed by "the lottery value associated with each winning number / the number of all random number values that may be extracted (random number denominator: 65536)".

(1) Internal lottery table for RT0 state In the internal lottery table for RT0 state, a lottery value larger than 0 is defined for the internal winning combination (winning number) related to the small combination, the replay combination, and the bonus combination. For example, in the RT0 state internal lottery table, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, the winning numbers "1" (abbreviation "F_normal lip 1"), "2" (abbreviation "F_normal lip 2"), "21" (Abbreviation "F_Chance Lip 1") and "22" (abbreviation "F_Chance Lip 2") have a lottery value greater than 0, but other replay roles. The lottery value of the winning numbers (“3” to “20” and “23”) according to the above is 0. That is, in the RT0 state, the replay combination related to the winning numbers "1", "2", "21" and "22" can be won, but the other replay roles are not won (winning numbers "3" to "". The data pointers corresponding to "20" and "23" are not acquired).

In the internal lottery referring to the internal lottery table for the RT0 state, for example, the probability that the winning number "1" (abbreviated as "F_normal lip 1") is won at the time of setting is 7066/65536 as shown in FIG. .. Then, when the winning number "1" is won, "1" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "1" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination names "C_replay 1" and "C_replay 2" (see FIG. 43 described later).

Further, in the internal lottery referring to the internal lottery table for the RT0 state, for example, the probability that the winning number "21" (abbreviated as "F_chance lip 1") is won at the time of setting 1 is 345/65536 as shown in FIG. become. Then, when the winning number "21" is won, "21" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "21" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination name "C_chance lip 1" (see FIG. 45 described later).

In the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the internal winning combination related to the abbreviations "F_chance lip 1" and "F_chance lip 2" is a so-called "chance eye" internal winning combination. Then, as shown in FIGS. 23 to 30, in the present embodiment, the probability of winning the abbreviation "F_chance lip 1" is constant (345/65536) regardless of the RT state and the setting. On the other hand, the probability of winning the abbreviation "F_Chance Lip 2" changes depending on the setting (108/65536 to 113/65536), but when the setting is the same, it is constant regardless of the RT state.

Further, the "rare role" in the present embodiment is abbreviated as "F_chance lip 1", "F_chance lip 2", "F_cherry lip", "F_common bell 1", "F_common bell 2", "F_common bell 2". It is a role related to any one of "F_watermelon", "F_weak cherry", "F_strong cherry" and "F_medium che".

(2) Internal lottery table for RT1 state In the internal lottery table for RT1 state, as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26, the internal winning combination (winning number) related to the small combination, the replay combination, and the bonus combination has a value larger than 0. The lottery value of is specified. For example, in the internal lottery table for the RT1 state, the winning numbers "3" (abbreviation "F_RT2 transition lip 1") to "8" (abbreviation "F_RT2 transition lip 6"), "21" (abbreviation "F_chance lip 1") And for the replay role of "22" (abbreviated as "F_Chance Lip 2"), a lottery value larger than 0 is specified, but the winning numbers ("1", "1", " The lottery value of "2", "9" to "20" and "23") is 0. That is, in the RT1 state, the replay combination related to the winning numbers "3" to "8", "21" and "22" can be won, but the other replay roles are not won (winning numbers "1", "" The data pointers corresponding to "2", "9" to "20", and "23" are not acquired).

In the internal lottery with reference to the RT1 state internal lottery table, for example, at the time of setting 1, any one of the winning numbers "3" (abbreviated as "F_RT2 transition lip 1") to "8" (abbreviated as "F_RT2 transition lip 6") is won. The probability of doing so is 1414/65536, as shown in FIG. Then, for example, when the winning number "3" is won, "3" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "3" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination names "C_replay 1", "C_RT1 lip", "C_RT2 lip", and "C_replay 2" ( See FIG. 43 below).

(3) Internal lottery table for RT2 state In the internal lottery table for RT2 state, a lottery value larger than 0 is defined for the internal winning combination (winning number) related to the small combination, the replay combination, and the bonus combination. For example, in the RT2 state internal lottery table, as shown in FIGS. 27 and 28, the winning numbers "10" (abbreviated as "F_RT3 transition lip 1_B"), "12" (abbreviated as "F_RT3 transition lip 2_B"), "14". (Abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 3_B"), "16" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 4_B"), "18" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 5_B"), "20" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 6_B"), For the replay roles of "21" (abbreviation "F_Chance Lip 1") and "22" (abbreviation "F_Chance Lip 2"), a lottery value larger than 0 is specified, but other than that. The lottery value of the winning numbers ("1" to "9", "11", "13", "15", "17", "19" and "23") related to the replay combination is 0. That is, in the RT2 state, the replay combination related to the winning numbers "10", "12", "14", "16", "18" and "20" to "22" can be won, but other replays. The winning combination is not won (data pointers corresponding to winning numbers "1" to "9", "11", "13", "15", "17", "19" and "23" are not acquired).

In the internal lottery referring to the internal lottery table for the RT2 state, for example, the winning numbers "10" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 1_B"), "12" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 2_B"), "14" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 2_B") at the time of setting 1 Any of abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 3_B"), "16" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 4_B"), "18" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 5_B") and "20" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 6_B") The probability of winning is 1414/65536, as shown in FIG. 27. Then, for example, when the winning number "10" is won, "10" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "10" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination names "C_RT1 lip", "C_RT3 lip 1", "C_RT3 lip 2" and "C_cherry lip". (See FIG. 43 below).

(4) Internal lottery table for RT3 state In the internal lottery table for RT3 state, as shown in FIGS. 29 and 30, the internal winning combination (winning number) related to the small combination, the replay combination, and the bonus combination has a value larger than 0. The lottery value of is specified. For example, in the internal lottery table for the RT3 state, the winning numbers "1" (abbreviation "F_normal lip 1") and "9" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 1_A") to "22" (abbreviation "F_chance lip 2") For the replay combination of, a lottery value larger than 0 is specified, but the lottery value of the winning numbers ("2" to "8" and "23") related to the other replay combination is 0. is there. That is, in the RT3 state, the replay combination related to the winning numbers "1" and "9" to "22" can be won, but the other replay roles are not won (winning numbers "2" to "8" and "winning numbers" 2 "to" 8 ". The data pointer corresponding to "23" is not acquired).

In the internal lottery referring to the internal lottery table for the RT3 state, for example, the winning numbers "9" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 1_A"), "11" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 2_A"), "13" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 2_A") at the time of setting 1 The probability of winning any of the abbreviations "F_RT3 transition lip 3_A"), "15" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 4_A") and "19" (abbreviation "F_RT3 transition lip 5_A") is as shown in FIG. It becomes 6116/65536. Then, for example, when the winning number "9" is won, "9" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "9" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination names "C_RT1 rip", "C_RT3 rip 1", and "C_RT3 rip 2" (see FIG. 43 described later). ).

(5) Internal lottery table for BB internal medium state In the internal lottery table for BB internal medium state, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the small winning combination and the internal lottery table for RT0 state to RT3 state described above are the same. A lottery value larger than 0 is specified for the internal winning combination (winning number) related to the replay combination.

However, in the internal lottery table for the BB internal medium state, as shown in FIG. 32, the winning numbers "58" (abbreviated as "F_MB1"), "59" (abbreviated as "F_MB2"), and "77", in which the bonus combination is independently won. (Abbreviation "F_BB1") and "78" (abbreviation "F_BB2") have a lottery value of 0. That is, in the BB internal medium state, the bonus combination is not won by itself. In addition, in this embodiment, since the internal winning combination related to BB3 does not win independently, the winning number "76" (abbreviated as "F_BB3 + F_cherry lip") is drawn in the internal lottery table for the BB internal medium state. The value is also set to 0.

(6) Internal lottery table for BB medium state In the internal lottery table for BB medium state, as shown in FIGS. 33 and 34, the winning numbers "21" (abbreviation "F_chance lip 1") and "51" (abbreviation "" Only F_common bell 1 ")," 56 "(abbreviated as" F_BB medium-weak cherry ") and" 57 "(abbreviated as" F_BB medium-strong cherry ") have a lottery value greater than 0. The lottery value of the winning numbers other than is 0. That is, in the BB state, only one of the winning numbers "21", "51", "56" and "57" is won, and the data pointer for small win / replay and the bonus corresponding to the other winning numbers are used. No data pointer is retrieved.

In the internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table for the BB medium state, for example, the probability of winning the winning number "51" (abbreviation "F_common bell 1") at the time of setting 1 is 58996/65536 as shown in FIG. Become. That is, in the BB state at the time of setting 1, there is a 90% probability that the internal winning combination related to the abbreviation "F_common bell 1", that is, the small winning combination of bells in any push order (small winning combination in which 9 medals are paid out) ) Is determined. Then, for example, when the winning number "51" is won, "51" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "51" corresponds to a symbol combination (display combination) related to all small combinations (see FIGS. 47 and 48 described later).

Further, in the internal lottery referring to the internal lottery table for the BB medium state, for example, the probability of winning the winning number “56” (abbreviation “F_BB medium weak cherry”) at the time of setting 1 is 3700 / as shown in FIG. It becomes 65536. Then, for example, when the winning number "56" is won, "56" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "56" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination names "C_bell 1" to "C_bell 3" and "C_9 weak cherries" (see the figure below). 47 and FIG. 48).

That is, in the BB state, when the internal winning combination related to the abbreviation "F_BB medium weak cherry" (winning number "56") wins, the combination names "C_bell 1" to "C_bell 3" and "C_9 or less" The symbol combination related to any of "cherries" is stopped and displayed on the effective line. Then, when the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the valid line, nine medals are paid out as a privilege (see FIGS. 17 and 18).

Further, in the internal lottery referring to the internal lottery table for the BB medium state, for example, the probability of winning the winning number "57" (abbreviated as "F_BB medium strong cherry") at the time of setting 1 is 1280/65536. Then, for example, when the winning number "57" is won, "57" is acquired as the small winning combination / replay data pointer, and "0" is acquired as the bonus data pointer. The small combination / replay data pointer "57" corresponds to the symbol combination (display combination) related to the combination names "C_bell 1" to "C_bell 3" and "C_9 strong cherry" (see the figure below). 17 to 19).

That is, in the BB state, when the internal winning combination related to the abbreviation "F_BB medium-strength cherry" (winning number "56") wins, the combination names "C_bell 1" to "C_bell 3" and "C_9-strong" The symbol combination related to any of "cherries" is stopped and displayed on the effective line. Then, when the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the valid line, nine medals are paid out as a privilege (see FIGS. 17 to 19).

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 33 and 34, in the game in the BB state, not only the small winning combination in which nine medals are paid out, but also the replay winning combination (abbreviated as “F_chance lip 1”) is internally included. Although the winning configuration has been described, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in a game in the BB state, only a plurality of types of small wins in which a predetermined fixed number of medals (for example, 9 medals) are paid out may be internally won. In this case, the number of games (number of games played) consumed by the bonus can be set to a fixed value.

(7) Internal lottery table for MB (RT0) state to MB (RT3) state In the present embodiment, even in the MB state, the lottery process is performed with reference to the internal lottery table as in the case where the bonus is not activated.

However, in the MB state, the winning combination to be drawn in the lottery process using the internal lottery table is mainly a replay combination (partly, a BB combination and a replay combination overlap) as shown in FIGS. 35 to 42. The role) is subject to lottery, and small roles and bonus single roles are not subject to lottery. However, in the present embodiment, in the game during the MB operation, all the small winning combinations are automatically won internally regardless of the internal lottery. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the lottery process with reference to the internal lottery table for the MB state, when the replay combination is won, the replay combination and all the small combinations are substantially duplicated. If the lottery result is "missing", only all the small wins will be won.

As shown in FIGS. 35 and 36, the types of replay combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the MB (RT0) state are the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the RT0 state. It will be similar to that of. As shown in FIGS. 37 and 38, the types of replay combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the MB (RT1) state are those of the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the RT1 state. It will be the same. As shown in FIGS. 39 and 40, the types of replay combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the MB (RT2) state are those of the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the RT2 state. It will be the same. Then, as shown in FIGS. 41 and 42, the types of replay combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the MB (RT3) state are the internal lottery process using the internal lottery table for the RT3 state. It will be similar to that of.

[Design combination determination table]
Next, the symbol combination (display combination) determination table will be described with reference to FIGS. 43 to 48. Here, in order to clarify the structure of the symbol combination (display combination) determination table (to make it easier to see), the symbol combination (display combination) determination table is divided into six tables, but in reality, it is shown. The six tables are configured as one table.

The symbol combination determination table defines the correspondence between the data pointer associated with each internal winning combination and the symbol combination (combination) that can be displayed on the effective line (cross-up line). That is, when the small winning combination / replay data pointer and the bonus data pointer (internal winning combination) are determined, the type of symbol combination that can be displayed on the valid line, that is, the type of display combination that can be won is uniquely determined. It is determined.

Various data described in the symbol combination (display combination) column in each symbol combination determination table is a symbol combination that allows display along the effective line set over the left reel 3L, the middle reel 3C, and the right reel 3R. It is data for identification. The "data" in the symbol combination (display combination) column is represented by 1-byte data in the same manner as the "data" in the display combination code column in the symbol combination table shown in FIGS. 16 to 19, and the 1-byte data. A unique symbol combination is assigned to each bit in it. In addition, the circles described in the data pointer column in the symbol combination determination table are symbol combinations (combinations) that can be displayed on the effective line in the acquired data pointer (internal winning combination), that is, display combinations that can win a prize. Is shown.

In the symbol combination determination table shown in FIGS. 43 to 48, the symbol combination (display combination) related to the operation of the bonus is defined for each of the bonus data pointers "1" to "5", and for small combination / replay. A symbol combination (display combination) related to a small combination and a replay combination is defined for each of the data pointers "1" to "57". That is, the symbol combination determination table has a correspondence relationship between the bonus data pointer and the display combination related to the operation of the bonus, and the display combination related to the small combination / replay data pointer and the payout of the medal or the display combination related to the operation of the replay. Prescribe the correspondence with.

For example, when "3" (internal winning combination of the name "BB1") is acquired as a bonus data pointer, as shown in FIG. 43, only the symbol combinations related to the combination names "C_BB1A" and "C_BB1B" are available. Stop display is possible. Further, for example, when "1" (internal winning combination of the name "F_normal replay 1") is acquired as a data pointer for a small combination / replay, as shown in FIG. 43, the combination name "C_replay 1" is obtained. And the symbol combination related to "C_Replay 2" can be stopped and displayed. Further, for example, when "24" (internal winning combination of the name "F_left bell 1") is acquired as a data pointer for a small combination / replay, the combination name "C_" is shown in FIGS. 45 and 46. The symbol combinations related to "Bell 2", "C_Selection Bell 01", "C_Selection Bell 05" and "C_Selection Bell 09" can be stopped and displayed.

It should be noted that the symbol combination determination table does not specify the case where the "internal winning combination" is "off", but this is all the symbols defined by the symbol combination tables shown in FIGS. 16 to 19. Indicates that the display of combinations is not allowed.

[Prize winning operation flag data table for symbols]
Next, the symbol-corresponding winning operation flag data table will be described with reference to FIG. 49. The symbol-corresponding winning operation flag data table defines the correspondence between the reel type and the internal winning combination data that can be displayed according to the symbol of each reel displayed on the effective line. That is, by referring to the symbol-corresponding winning operation flag data table, it is possible to determine the internal winning combination that can be displayed at that time. The symbol-corresponding winning operation flag data table is provided corresponding to the symbol combination table (see FIGS. 16 to 19).

For example, when the symbol "red 7" is stopped and displayed on the winning determination line of the left reel 3L, in the storage areas 1 to 8 corresponding to the symbol code "00000001" (red 7) in the reel type "left". "1" is stored in the bit corresponding to the displayable internal winning combination. The data defined in the symbol-corresponding winning operation flag data table is logically producted and stored in the data stored in the symbol code storage area (see FIG. 104 described later) described later.

<Correspondence table between internal winning combination, stop button pressing order, and symbol combination>
Next, with reference to FIGS. 50 to 54, the correspondence between the internal winning combination, the symbol combination (display combination), and the pressing order of the stop button (hereinafter referred to as “batting order”) in each of the above-mentioned main game states is described. explain. In addition, FIG. 50 and FIG. 51 are correspondence tables of the internal winning combination, the symbol combination (display combination), and the batting order when the main game state is the general middle state or the BB state. 52 and 53 are a correspondence table of the internal winning combination, the symbol combination (display combination), and the batting order when the main game state is the BB internal middle state. Further, FIG. 54 is a correspondence table of the internal winning combination, the symbol combination (display combination), and the batting order when the main game state is the MB (CB) state.

In addition, "Batting order 1" described in each correspondence table corresponds to the order of pressing the stop button "left → middle → right", and "batting order 2" corresponds to the order of pressing the stop button "left → right → middle". Corresponds in the order of. "Batting order 3" corresponds to the order in which the stop buttons are pressed in the order of "middle → left → right", and "batting order 4" corresponds to the order in which the stop buttons are pressed in the order of "middle → right → left". Further, "batting order 5" corresponds to the order in which the stop buttons are pressed in the order of "right → left → middle", and "batting order 6" corresponds to the order in which the stop buttons are pressed in the order of "right → middle → left".

(1) General medium state or BB state In the present embodiment, when the main game state is the general medium state or BB state, the correct answer is given to the internal winning combinations "F_RT2 transition lip 1" to "F_RT2 transition lip 6". As the batting order, the batting order 1 to 6 are associated with each other. Therefore, for example, when the main game state is the general medium state or the BB state, and the internal winning combination is the combination related to "F_RT2 transition lip 1" to "F_RT2 transition lip 6", as shown in FIG. If the batting order is batting order 1 to 6, respectively, the symbol combination related to the combination name "C_RT2 transition lip" is always displayed as a stop on the effective line. However, for example, if the reels are stopped in a batting order (incorrect batting order) that is not associated with the internal winning combinations "F_RT2 transition lip 1" to "F_RT2 transition lip 6", the reels will be called "middle rip" or "lower rip". The symbol combination to be called is stopped and displayed on the effective line.

The "middle rip" is a symbol "replay" on a pseudo line (center line) connecting the middle area of the left reel 3L, the middle area of the middle reel 3C, and the middle area of the right reel 3R in the reel display window 4. "Is a symbol combination that is displayed as a stop. On the other hand, the "lower rip" is a symbol "replay" on a pseudo line (bottom line) connecting the lower region of the left reel 3L, the lower region of the middle reel 3C, and the lower region of the right reel 3R in the reel display window 4. "Is a symbol combination that is displayed as a stop.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the main game state is the general middle state or the BB state, the correct answer is given to the internal winning combination (“F_left bell 1” to “F_left bell 9”) related to the “left bell”. As the batting order of, the batting order 1 and the batting order 2 (the batting order in which the left reel 3L is first stopped) are associated with each other. Therefore, for example, when the main game state is the general medium state or the BB state and the internal winning combination is the combination related to the "left bell", the batting order is batting order 1 or batting order 2 as shown in FIG. If so, the symbol combination of the small winning combination related to the "left bell" (hereinafter referred to as "bell small winning combination"), in which the number of medals paid out is 9, is always stopped and displayed on the effective line. However, for example, if the reels are stopped in a batting order (incorrect batting order) that is not associated with the internal winning combination related to the "left bell", there is a 1/9 probability that the symbol combination related to the small bell combination is an effective line. Stop displayed above.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the main game state is the general medium state or the BB state, the internal winning combination (“F_common bell 1” and “F_common bell 2”) related to the “common bell” is dealt with. The batting order does not matter. Therefore, for example, when the main game state is the general medium state or the BB state and the internal winning combination is the combination related to the "common bell", as shown in FIG. 51, medals are paid out regardless of the batting order. The symbol combination related to the small bell, which has 9 medals, is always stopped and displayed on the effective line.

Further, in the present embodiment, the internal winning roles "F_BB medium-weak cherry" and "F_BB medium-strong cherry" (cherry small role in which the number of medals paid out is 9) are won only when the main game state is the BB state. However, the batting order does not matter. Therefore, for example, when the main game state is the BB state and the internal winning combination is a combination related to "cherry", as shown in FIG. 51, the number of medals paid out is 9 regardless of the batting order. The symbol combination related to the cherry small winning combination is always displayed as a stop on the effective line.

(2) BB Internal Medium State In the present embodiment, when the main game state is the BB internal medium state, the internal winning combination is the combination related to the “bell” (“F_left bell 1” (winning number 24) to “F_common”. The batting order does not matter for "Bell 2" (winning number 52)). Therefore, for example, when the main game state is the BB internal medium state and the internal winning combination is the combination related to the “bell”, as shown in FIG. 53, the number of medals paid out is 9 regardless of the batting order. The symbol combination of the small bells will always be stopped and displayed on the effective line. That is, in the game in the BB internal medium state, the small winning combination (batting order) having the correct answer in the pushing order (batting order) in the non-BB internal medium state changes to a small winning combination in any push order.

(3) MB (CB) state As described above, in the lottery using the internal lottery table for the MB (CB) state, the internal winning combination to be the lottery is the replay combination (winning number 0 to 23). , Apart from the lottery, all the small winning combinations are automatically won internally.

Then, in the present embodiment, the main game state is the MB (CB) state, and the internal winning combination is abbreviated as "F_normal rip 2", "F_RT2 transition rip 6", "F_RT3 transition rip 6_B", "F_chance". In the case of the roles related to "Rip 1" and "F_Chance Lip 2" to "F_RT2 Transition Lip 6", when the batting order is batting order 1 or batting order 2, as shown in FIG. 54, the combination name "C_9 strong cherry" When the symbol combination (“9-card strong che” in FIG. 54) is stopped and displayed on the effective line and the batting order is any of batting order 3 to 6, the combination name “C_9-card weak cherry” is related. The symbol combination (“a little less than 9 pieces” in FIG. 54) is stopped and displayed on the effective line.

Further, when the main game state is the MB (CB) state and the internal winning combination is a replay combination other than the above-mentioned combination, the combination name "C_9" is used according to the type of the replay combination regardless of the batting order. The symbol combination related to "Small weak cherry" or the symbol combination related to the combination name "C_special combination" ("special combination" in FIG. 54) is stopped and displayed on the effective line.

Even if any of the combination names "C_9 weak cherry", "C_9 strong cherry" and "C_special role" is stopped and displayed on the valid line, the number of medals to be paid out will be 9 (Fig.). 16 to 19). That is, in the present embodiment, when the main game state is the MB (CB) state, the number of medals paid out is 9 regardless of each game, the type of internal winning combination (including "missing"), and the batting order. The small role that becomes will always win a prize.

<Correspondence between internal winning combination and instruction monitor number (navigation type)>
In the conventional pachislot machine, information (navigation) of reel stop operation information (pushing order, etc.) is performed by controlling the sub (sub-control board 72) side during ART. However, since the presence or absence of this notification affects the profit (ball output) of the player, in recent years, it has been required to perform the notification on the main (main control board 71) side that manages the profit of the player. Therefore, in the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, as described above, the information display 24 controlled on the main side is provided with an instruction display unit (not shown) for notifying information of the stop operation and the like, and the control on the main side is controlled. Therefore, a function (AT function) for notifying information on the reel stop operation according to the internal winning combination is provided.

In the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, when the internal winning combination (small combination and replay combination) having the correct answer in the batting order is won during the operation of the AT (ART) function, it is associated with the correct answering order of the winning internal winning combination. The instruction monitor number is displayed on the instruction display. The "instruction monitor number" is a numerical value displayed (notified) on the instruction display unit when navigation occurs, and uniquely corresponds to the notification content (navigation type).

Here, with reference to FIGS. 55 to 57, the correspondence between the internal winning combination and the instruction monitor number (navigation type) will be described. FIG. 55 is a diagram showing the correspondence between the instruction monitor number and the navigation type. Further, FIGS. 56 and 57 are diagrams showing a correspondence relationship between the internal winning combination related to the small combination and the replay combination and the instruction monitor number (navigation type). As shown in FIG. 55, in the present embodiment, the navigation type displayed on the instruction display unit includes not only batting order navigation but also bonus (BB) notification.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 55, the batting order notifications (batting order navigation) are associated with the instruction monitor numbers "1" to "6", and the BB notifications are associated with the instruction monitor numbers "7" to "9". .. Specifically, the instruction monitor number "1" is associated with the batting order "left → middle → right" notification ("left middle right navigation"), and the instruction monitor number "2" is associated with the batting order "left → right". → Corresponds to the "middle" notification ("left and right middle navigation"). The instruction monitor number "3" is associated with the batting order "middle → left → right" notification ("middle left and right navigation"), and the instruction monitor number "4" is associated with the batting order "middle → right → left" notification ("middle → right → left" notification ( "Middle right left navigation") is associated. The instruction monitor number "5" is associated with the batting order "right → left → middle" notification ("right left middle navigation"), and the instruction monitor number "6" is associated with the batting order "right → middle → left" notification ("right → middle → left" notification ( "Right, middle, left navigation") is associated. Further, the instruction monitor number "7" is associated with the notification of BB1 ("red 7 navigation"), and the instruction monitor number "8" is associated with the notification of BB2 ("blue 7 navigation"). Correspond to the notification ("BAR Navi").

Then, when the above-mentioned instruction monitor number, the navigation type, and the correspondence relationship and the correspondence relationship between the internal winning combination shown in FIGS. 50 and 51 and the batting order of the correct answer are made into one correspondence table, the correspondence shown in FIGS. 56 and 57 is shown. A table is obtained. Hereinafter, the correspondence between the internal winning combination related to the small combination and the replay combination and the instruction monitor number (navigation type) set in the present embodiment will be specifically described.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 56 and 57, the abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 1" (win number "3"), "F_RT3 transition lip 1_A" (win number "9"), "F_RT3 transition lip 1_B" (Winning number "10") and "F_left bell 1" (winning number "24") to "F_left bell 4" (winning number "27"), the internal winning combination is the instruction monitor number "1" (left). It is associated with (middle right navigation). Therefore, in the ART state, the internal winning combinations related to the abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 1", "F_RT3 transition lip 1_A", "F_RT3 transition lip 1_B" and "F_left bell 1" to "F_left bell 4" were won. In that case, "left middle right navigation" occurs, and the instruction monitor number "1" is displayed on the instruction monitor.

Therefore, in the ART state, the internal winning combinations related to the abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 4", "F_RT3 transition lip 4_A", "F_RT3 transition lip 4_B" and "F_middle bell 5" to "F_middle bell 9" were won. In that case, "middle right left navigation" occurs, and the instruction monitor number "4" is displayed on the instruction monitor.

Abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 5" (winning number "7"), "F_RT3 transition lip 5_A" (winning number "17"), "F_RT3 transition lip 5_B" (winning number "18") and "F_right bell 1" (winning number "18") The internal winning combination related to the winning numbers "42") to "F_right bell 4" (winning number "45") is associated with the instruction monitor number "5" (right, left, middle navigation). Therefore, in the ART state, the internal winning combinations related to the abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 5", "F_RT3 transition lip 5_A", "F_RT3 transition lip 5_B" and "F_right bell 1" to "F_right bell 4" were won. In that case, "navigation in the middle right and left" occurs, and the instruction monitor number "5" is displayed on the instruction monitor.

In addition, the abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 6" (winning number "8"), "F_RT3 transition lip 6_A" (winning number "19"), "F_RT3 transition lip 6_B" (winning number "20") and "F_right bell 5" (Winning number "46") to "F_right bell 9" (winning number "50"), the internal winning combination is associated with the instruction monitor number "6" (right middle left navigation). Therefore, in the ART state, the internal winning combinations related to the abbreviations "F_RT2 transition lip 6", "F_RT3 transition lip 6_A", "F_RT3 transition lip 6_B" and "F_right bell 5" to "F_right bell 9" were won. In that case, "right middle left navigation" occurs, and the instruction monitor number "6" is displayed on the instruction monitor.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the BB combination wins internally in the normal state and the ART state, the BB is notified (instructed) by the instruction display unit at a predetermined timing after the BB win on the main side. Then, the notification timing of the BB by the instruction display unit changes according to the ball ejection state.

Specifically, in the normal state, after winning the BB, after 2 games have been digested, the instruction display unit notifies the role of BB, and in the ART state and the additional specialized state, after winning the BB and digesting 3 games, the instruction is given. The display unit notifies the BB role, and in other ball ejection states, the instruction display unit notifies the BB role after one game is exhausted.

In the present embodiment, as described above, when the BB combination is won, the combination with the correct answer in the push order (batting order) in the non-BB internal medium state (push order combination) changes to the combination with no push order. Therefore, when the BB combination is won in the game in the ART state, the batting order navigation becomes unnecessary in the game in the BB internal medium state. However, even in this case, in the present embodiment, when the push order combination is won, the batting order navigation (unnecessary navigation) corresponding to the push order combination is generated so that the situation without navigation does not occur in the ART state. ..

In the pachislot machine 1 having such a notification specification, by providing the above-mentioned instruction (navigation) mode at the time of winning the BB, even if a situation in which navigation is unnecessary occurs during the ART state, the situation is in the BB internal medium state (navigation). It is possible to prevent the player from easily recognizing that (when navigation is not required).

<Correspondence table between the internal winning combination and the main lottery flag>
In the present embodiment, the main control circuit 91 performs various lottery processes related to the control of the ball ejection state (control of the AT function (ART), etc.), but the various lottery tables used for the lottery process are internally as described later. The lottery value is defined not for each winning combination but for each flag called "main lottery flag" set in association with the type of internal winning combination.

(8) Counter "6", specialized final game loop rate "80%"
(9) Counter "10", specialized final game loop rate "66%"
(10) Counter "8", specialized final game loop rate "80%"
(11) Counter "11", specialized final game loop rate "66%"
(12) Counter "10", specialized final game loop rate "80%"
(13) Counter "13", specialized final game loop rate "66%"
(14) Counter "11", specialized final game loop rate "80%"
(15) Counter "13", specialized final game loop rate "80%"

The numerical value of the "counter" specified in the lottery results (1) to (15) indicates the number of specialized additional games, and the value of the "specialized final game loop rate" is the specialized final game to be redetermined. The loop rate. Therefore, for example, when the lottery result (12) is determined, 10 games are added to the number of specialized games, and the specialized final game loop rate is changed to 80%. When the currently set specialized final game loop rate is equal to or higher than the specialized final game loop rate determined by the lottery result, or when the ART is being prepared and the special drive flag is on. Does not change the specialized final game loop rate. In addition, in this embodiment, as a general rule, rewriting (demotion) to the "specialized final game loop rate" (continuation rate), which is disadvantageous to the player, is not performed, and the "specialized final game loop", which is advantageous to the player. Only rewrite (promote) to "rate".

Further, in the lottery table for adding the number of specialized games of the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 93 to 98, the lottery value associated with each lottery result depends on whether the set value is an odd number or an even number. Change. In addition, among the settings 1, 3 and 5 in which the set value is an odd number, the lottery value is associated with each lottery result and is constant regardless of the set value. Further, even between the settings 2, 4 and 6 in which the set value is an odd number, the lottery value is associated with each lottery result and is constant regardless of the set value.

As shown in FIGS. 93 to 95, when the lottery state is low, the number of specialized games is added. In the additional lottery of the number of specialized games using the lottery table, the main lottery flag (internal winning role) is set to "strong cherry". , The number of specialized additional games of one or more games is always determined. Further, as shown in FIGS. 96 to 98, in the additional lottery of the number of specialized games using the special game number additional lottery table when the lottery state is highly accurate, the main lottery flag (internal winning combination) is set to " When it is "strong chance" or "strong cherry", the number of specialized additional games of one or more games is always determined.

<Structure of storage area provided in main RAM>
Next, the configurations of various storage areas provided in the main RAM 95 will be described with reference to FIGS. 99 to 105. Although description is omitted here (not shown), a storage area for various control data, various counters, and the like used in game control of various ball ejection states, which will be described later, is also provided in the main RAM 95.

[Display combination storage area, internal winning combination storage area, and carry-over combination storage area]
First, the configuration of the display combination storage area will be described with reference to FIG. 99. In the present embodiment, each display combination storage area is composed of display combination storage areas 1 to 8 represented by 1 byte of data.

When "1" is stored in a predetermined bit in each of the display combination storage areas 1 to 8, it indicates that the symbol combination corresponding to the predetermined bit is displayed on the valid line. On the other hand, when all the bits are "0", it indicates that the symbol combination related to the winning is not displayed on the valid line.

Further, the main RAM 95 is provided with an internal winning combination storage area. The internal winning combination storage area is configured in the same manner as the display combination storage area shown in FIG. 99. When "1" is set in a plurality of bits in the internal winning combination storage areas 1 to 8, the display of the symbol combination corresponding to each bit is permitted. Further, when all the bits are "0", the content of the internal winning combination is "missing".

Further, the main RAM 95 is provided with a carry-over combination storage area. The carry-over combination storage area is configured in the same manner as the display combination storage area 1 shown in FIG. However, the bit 7 of the storage area is unused.

As a result of the internal lottery, for example, when an internal winning combination corresponding to the symbol combination (display combination) of the name "C_BB1A" is determined as the internal winning combination, the internal winning combination is designated as the carry-over combination in the carry-over combination storage area. It is stored in the area of (bit 2 area). The carry-over combination stored in the carry-over combination storage area is until the corresponding symbol combination (for example, the symbol combination "Red 7"-"Red 7"-"Red 7" of the name "C_BB1A") is displayed on the valid line. It is retained without being cleared. Then, while the carry-over combination is stored in the carry-over combination storage area, the carry-over combination is also stored in the internal winning combination storage area in addition to the internal winning combination determined by the internal lottery.

[Game status flag storage area]
Next, the configuration of the game state flag storage area will be described with reference to FIG. 100. The game state flag storage area is composed of game state flag storage areas 1 and 2, which are represented by 1-byte data, respectively. In the present embodiment, a unique RT state type, bonus internal medium state type, or bonus game state type, that is, a main game mode type is assigned to each bit of the game state flag storage areas 1 and 2. ..

When "1" is stored (standing) in a predetermined bit in the game state flag storage area 1 or 2, the operation of the RT corresponding to the predetermined bit, the operation of the bonus game, or the operation of the bonus internal game Indicates that the operation is being performed. For example, when "1" is stored in bit 0 of the game state flag storage area 1, the game in the RT0 state is being performed, and "1" is stored in bit 4 of the game state flag storage area 1. Occasionally, it indicates that the game is being played in the BB1 internal medium state or the BB2 internal medium state. Further, for example, when "1" is stored in bit 6 of the game state flag storage area 1, the game of BB1 or BB2 is being performed, and "1" is stored in bit 0 of the game state flag storage area 2. When it is, it indicates that the game is being performed in the MB state at RT0.

[Ball-out status flag storage area]
Next, with reference to FIG. 101, the configuration of the ball ejection state flag storage area will be described. The payout state flag storage area stores the payout state flag consisting of 1 byte. In the payout state flag storage area, each bit is assigned a corresponding payout state.

For example, when the ball ejection state is the normal state, "1" is stored in bit 0 of the ball ejection state flag storage area. Further, for example, when the ball ejection state is in the CZ middle state, "1" is stored in bit 2 of the ball ejection state flag storage area, and when the ball ejection state is the ART state, the ball ejection state flag is stored. "1" is stored in bit 4 of the storage area. Further, for example, when the ball ejection state is an additional specialized state, "1" is stored in both the bit 4 and the bit 6 of the ball ejection state flag storage area.

[Operation stop button storage area]
Next, the configuration of the operation stop button storage area will be described with reference to FIG. 102. The operation stop button storage area stores an operation stop button flag consisting of 1 byte. In the operation stop button flag, the operation state of the stop button is assigned to each bit.

For example, when the left stop button 19L is the stop button pressed this time, that is, the operation stop button, "1" is stored in bit 0 of the operation stop button storage area. Further, for example, when the left stop button 19L is a stop button that has not yet been pressed, that is, an effective stop button, "1" is stored in bit 4. The main CPU 93 distinguishes between the stop button pressed this time and the stop button that has not yet been pressed, based on the data stored in the operation stop button storage area.

[Press order storage area]
Next, the configuration of the pressing order storage area will be described with reference to FIG. 103. The press order storage area stores a press order flag consisting of 1 byte. In the pressing order flag, each bit is assigned a type of pressing order (batting order) of the stop button. For example, when the pressing order of the stop buttons is "left middle right", "1" is stored in bit 0 of the pressing order storage area.

[Design code storage area]
Next, the configuration of the symbol code storage area will be described with reference to FIG. 104. In the symbol code storage area, the symbol code of the reel that has been stopped most recently (symbol code storage area 1) and the displayable combination (symbol code storage area 2 to 9) are stored for each effective line. Reel. After all the reels are stopped, the symbol code corresponding to the display combination is stored in the symbol code storage area (symbol code storage area 2 to 9) in which the displayable combination is stored.

In the present embodiment, when the stop control position is determined, the winning operation flag data corresponding to the symbol (code) of the stop control position is read from the symbol corresponding winning operation flag data table (see FIG. 49), and the winning operation flag is read. The data is logically producted with the data already stored in the symbol code storage area. Then, the logically stacked data is stored in the symbol code storage area shown in FIG. 104.

[Instruction flag storage area]
Next, the configuration of the instruction (navigation) flag storage area will be described with reference to FIG. 105. In the present embodiment, the instruction flag storage area is composed of instruction flag storage areas 1 and 2 represented by 1 byte of data, respectively. A batting order navigation type or a BB notification navigation type (instruction flag number) is assigned to each bit. The instruction flag number shown in FIG. 105 corresponds to the instruction monitor number described in FIG. 55.

When "1" is stored in a predetermined bit in each of the instruction flag storage areas 1 and 2, the target combination (pushing order combination or BB combination) of the batting order navigation or the BB notification navigation corresponding to the predetermined bit is set. Indicates that you have won. On the other hand, when all the bits are "0", it indicates that the push order combination and the BB combination did not win.

For example, in the ART state, when any one of the names "F_left bell 1" to "F_left bell 4" wins internally, that is, the batting order in which the correct batting order of the stop button is "left middle right" is the internal winning combination. If so, "1" is stored in bit 0 of the instruction flag storage area 1. Then, in this case, under the control of the main control circuit 91, information (instruction monitor number 1) regarding the correct batting order of the stop button is notified by the instruction display unit (not shown) provided in the information display 24 described above. At the same time, batting order navigation (left middle right navigation) using the liquid crystal display device 11 is also performed under the control of the sub control circuit 101.

<Sub-game state managed by the sub-control circuit side>
In the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the sub-control circuit 101 performs various effects corresponding to the main lottery flag (ball ejection state) managed on the main side based on various command data transmitted from the main control circuit 91. Therefore, also on the sub control circuit 101 side (sub side), in order to control various effects, a sub management flag (sub game state) corresponding to the main lottery flag (ball ejection state) is provided.

Here, FIG. 106 shows a correspondence table between the main lottery flag and the sub management flag. Further, in FIG. 106, for convenience of explanation, the ball ejection state and the sub-game state are also described.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 106, various sub-management flags referred to as "normal sub-flag", "CZ-introduced sub-flag", "CZ-in-progress sub-flag", "ART-preparing sub-flag", and "ART-in-progress sub-flag" are used. Set a sub-management flag. Further, in the present embodiment, the sub-game states managed by the normal sub-flag, the CZ-introduced sub-flag, the CZ-introducing sub-flag, the ART-preparing sub-flag, and the ART-during sub-flag are the "normal state", the "CZ-introduced state", and the "CZ", respectively. It is referred to as "medium state", "ART preparing state" and "ART state". Here, the sub-game states corresponding to the "ART state", "ART fall waiting state", and "additional specialization state" on the main side are collectively referred to as "ART state", and sub-game states other than "ART state". Is one-to-one with the corresponding ball ejection state on the main side.

Further, although not shown in FIG. 106, the sub-side also manages the state in which each BB is operating, the state at the time of winning each BB, and the state in each BB as a sub-game state. Therefore, on the sub side, various sub management flags for controlling the BB game (for example, BB middle sub flag, NBB sub flag, SBB sub flag, BB internal middle sub flag, story BB flag, etc.) are provided. These various sub-game states and various sub-management flags will be appropriately described in the processing description of the flowchart described later.

Further, the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment is provided with various effect functions independently executed in the sub-control circuit 101, such as an additional notification effect of the number of ART games and a special effect, which will be described later. Therefore, on the sub side, a sub management flag (for example, a game number release flag, a specialized effect sub flag, etc., which will be described later) for controlling these various effects is also provided. These various sub-management flags will be appropriately described in the processing description of the flowchart described later.

<Various production functions performed on the sub side>
In the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, in each of the above-mentioned sub-game states, the sub-control circuit 101 (sub-CPU 102) performs various effects based on the received command data. These various effects include not only the effects that are performed in conjunction with the game in the ball-out state managed on the main side, but also the effects that are not linked to the game in the ball-out state. Here, the contents of various characteristic effects performed on the sub control circuit 101 side (sub side) will be described.

[Characteristic production performed under normal conditions]
(1) Production when the setting is changed or when the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption In the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the condition (RAM clear condition) of when the setting is changed or when the power is restored after 2 hours after the power interruption is satisfied. In this case, various data related to the game playability before the setting change or the power interruption is cleared, and the game in the normal state of the first cycle (first cycle) is started. At this time, in the case of power recovery after 2 hours of power failure, various game parameters (attack system, defense system and reward system card rank, stage type, etc.) in the state before power failure are based on the backup data. Is set. On the other hand, when the setting is changed, various game parameters are reset to the initial values. At this time, in this embodiment, the initial values of the ranks of the offensive, defensive, and reward cards are determined by lottery, but the initial card with the card rank "0" has the highest probability of any of the cards. It is set (see FIG. 73).

Then, in the game in the normal state of the first cycle (first cycle) after the setting is changed or after the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, if the card rank is increased by winning the card promotion lottery on the main side, a specific condition is satisfied. Unless is satisfied, the displayed card of the upgraded card is not displayed. Specifically, only when a special lottery using the card promotion display effect lottery table shown in FIG. 136 described later (card display lottery in FIG. 262 described later) is won, the displayed effect of the upgraded card is displayed. Do. That is, in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, even if the card rank is upgraded, the display effect of the initial card is continued unless a special lottery is won.

Further, in the game in the normal state of the first cycle (first cycle) after the setting is changed or after the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, the number of remaining cycle games displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11 is displayed as an actual value. Instead, it is displayed with the characters "?" (Hereinafter referred to as "?" Display). The display mode of the number of remaining cycle games in the first cycle after the setting is changed or after the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption is not limited to this mode, and is arbitrary as long as the player cannot recognize the number of remaining cycle games. Aspects can be adopted.

Further, in the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, when the setting is changed, there is a possibility of internally shifting to a high stage (special stage) (see FIG. 89F). However, even if the stage is internally shifted to the special stage when the setting is changed, the liquid crystal display device 11 displays the normal stage (any of the stages A to C) instead of the special stage.

As described above, in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, the occurrence of the effect is suppressed. Further, in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or after the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, the same effect is performed in the display effect of the card, the stage, and the number of remaining display games. Therefore, in this case, it is determined that the setting has been changed, for example, the display effect of the stage is different from the previous day, the display content of the card is different from the previous day, the number of remaining cycle games is different from the previous day, and so on. It is possible to prevent the material from being given to the player.

From these facts, it is possible to make it impossible to judge whether or not there is a setting change from the content of the effect by providing the effect function when the setting is changed or when the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption. Further, even if the stage shifts to a higher stage when the setting is changed, it is possible to prevent the player from recognizing it.

(2) Production after the demo production (production when the demo is canceled)
In the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, basically, when the settlement of medals is completed in the unit game in the normal state, the state of the effect is displayed on the liquid crystal screen of the liquid crystal display device 11 as a demonstration screen (hereinafter, "demo screen"). ) Is displayed (demo production). For example, "BB is operating", "ART sub-flag is on", "ART sub-flag is set to off", "sub-cycle counter value is changed from" 1 "to" 0 "". , "At the time of introducing CZ", "During CZ", "When 1 is specified in the effect parameter item" DB "described later", "During MB", etc., the demo transition is prohibited. ..

Then, when the BET operation is detected after the transition to the demo effect, the demo screen displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11 is switched to the normal game screen. However, at this time, in the present embodiment, each card is turned upside down so that the contents (rank) of each card displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11 cannot be known. At this time, the number of remaining cycle games displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11 is displayed as "?".

Such a display mode of each card and the number of remaining cycle games (effect at the time of demo release) is continued after BET until the player's start operation with respect to the start lever 23 is detected (until the game is started). Then, when the player's start operation with respect to the start lever 23 is detected, the display mode of each card and the number of remaining cycle games is a normal mode (the front side of each card is displayed, and the number of remaining cycle games is displayed numerically. Return to the mode).

In the period from the end of the demo effect to the start of the game, if the above-mentioned effect at the time of canceling the demo is performed, the information on the game cannot be confirmed unless at least one game is started. Therefore, for example, in a gaming machine (vacant table) in which the player is absent and the player can newly execute the game, it is necessary to prevent the information about the game from being lost to the non-player. (It is possible to prevent non-players from obtaining information on an empty platform).

In this embodiment, an example in which the demo effect is started when the settlement of medals is completed in the unit game in the normal state (an example in which the elapsed time in the non-BET state is “0” after the end of the unit game) will be described. However, the present invention is not limited to this. As an opportunity to shift to a demo other than settlement, for example, when the non-BET state has passed 3 minutes (3 minutes from the automatic input at the time of replay winning) after the end of the unit game, or 3 minutes after the end of the game (automatic at the time of replay winning 3 minutes have passed since the input, and then the menu screen is canceled. The menu screen is canceled when the menu screen is closed or when the menu screen is displayed and no operation is performed for 3 minutes.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the demonstration release effect, each card is displayed upside down, but the present invention is not limited to this, as long as the player cannot recognize the rank of each card. Any aspect can be adopted. Further, in the present embodiment, the mode in which the number of remaining cycle games is displayed as "?" Is shown in the effect at the time of demo cancellation, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the player cannot recognize the number of remaining cycle games. If so, any aspect can be adopted.

[Characteristic production performed in ART state]
(1) Additional notification effect of ART In the present embodiment, the additional specialized state managed on the main side is a specialized zone in which the number of ART games is always added. However, in the present embodiment, even if the addition of the number of ART games is determined in the additional specialization state on the main side, the determination result (the number of additional ART games) is basically determined on the sub side. The effect of notifying (displaying) as it is in the game (timing) is not performed.

Therefore, on the sub side, the number of remaining ART games displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11 (hereinafter referred to as "display ART game number") and the number of actually remaining ART games managed on the main side (hereinafter referred to as "number of display ART games"). , "Number of internal ART games") and a difference (hereinafter referred to as "number of difference games"). Then, on the sub side, based on the number of difference games, an effect of notifying a part or all of the number of difference games as the number of notification games on the liquid crystal display device 11 (hereinafter, referred to as "additional notification effect of ART") is performed. ..

That is, in the present embodiment, the content of the ART addition notification effect is determined based on the difference number of games without directly referring to the number of ART addition games obtained on the main side. Therefore, as a result of the additional notification effect, for example, the number of ART additional games determined on the main side is divided and announced over a plurality of games (for example, 30 games are added on the main side). In this case, 10 games will be added to the game three times), or the total number of ART games decided by multiple lottery will be announced at once (for example, 10 games will be added to the main side). If the game addition decision is made three times, the addition notification effect of 30 games is performed once).

The number of displayed ART games is counted by a display ART counter provided on the sub side. Further, the number of internal ART games is counted by an internal ART counter provided on the sub side. The internal ART counter is a specific example of the first remaining game counting means according to the present invention, and the display ART counter is a specific example of the second remaining game counting means.

In the internal ART counter, the value of the ART game number counter (counter for counting the number of remaining ART games) provided on the main side, which will be described later, is set for each game. Therefore, every time the addition of the number of ART games is determined in the addition specialization state on the main side, the determination result (the number of addition games of ART) is added to the value of the internal ART counter. On the other hand, the number of notification games is added to the value of the display ART counter when the additional notification effect of ART is executed. In the present embodiment, the number of difference games is calculated (generated) by subtracting the value of the display ART counter from the value of the internal ART counter, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the number of display ART games and the internal ART game are calculated (generated). Any method can be adopted as long as it can calculate the difference from the number. For example, during ART, the current number of differential games can be calculated by subtracting the total number of games announced on the sub side from the total number of ART added games added on the main side. Further, for example, various lottery tables may be referred to by referring to the value obtained by subtracting the value of the internal ART counter from the value of the display ART counter, that is, the number of negative difference games.

The number of additional games (number of notification games) of ART announced in the additional notification effect of ART is determined according to the number of difference games. Specifically, the number of announced games is determined by lottery based on various game situations including the number of difference games (number of displayed ART games, type of ART stage, game status of on / off state of character song flag, internal winning combination, etc.). It is determined (see the lottery table for the number of various notification games shown in FIGS. 160 to 193 described later). Then, if the number of notification games obtained as a result of the lottery by the number of notification games lottery is larger than 0 games, the execution of the additional notification effect is determined. The additional notification effect may be performed in a game in which the execution of the additional notification effect is determined, but may be executed after digesting several games of precursory effect games (various precursor scenarios described later).

As described above, in the present embodiment, a method of adding the number of ART games performed on the main side by providing an additional notification effect performed based on the number of difference games, in addition to the mode of adding the number of ART games on the main side. Even if it is a simple method (one-shot lottery, addition of each game, etc.), it can be made to feel as if a complicated lottery is being performed. Therefore, in the present embodiment, for example, the playability of adding the number of ART games is produced in an interesting manner with a simpler configuration without increasing the data of the control means or the processing load. be able to.

Further, in the present embodiment, not only the number of difference games but also the number of displayed ART games (value of the display ART counter) is referred to to determine the number of ART notification games to be announced in the additional notification effect. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained in addition to the above effects.

The number of difference games can be appropriately adjusted according to the number of displayed ART games. Further, the additional notification effect (number of notification games) can be adjusted according to the value that the player cannot confirm, such as the number of difference games, and the value that the player can confirm, such as the number of displayed ART games. Therefore, in the present embodiment, it is possible to design the production content so as to obtain a higher production effect according to the psychological situation of the player.

For example, when the number of displayed ART games (value of the display ART counter) is halfway (a situation in which the number of ART games remains relatively), it is difficult to determine the number of notification games (“0” is determined). If it is set to be easy to play), the number of difference games can be increased, and it is possible to easily generate an effect that raises expectations for the addition of a special effect described later. Then, if such an effect is generated when the number of displayed ART games becomes small, an effect with a high expectation will be generated in a situation where the player feels impatient, and a high effect can be obtained. it can.

Although not provided in the Pachislot 1 of the present embodiment, as a sub-game state, for example, from the expected value of the number of ART additional games that can be added by lottery on the main side (the average number of additional games that can be obtained per game). , The expected value of the number of notification games that can be announced in the additional notification effect (the average number of notification games that can be acquired per game) may be set to be low. In such a sub-game state, the number of difference games tends to be large, so that the number of notification games that can be notified by the additional notification effect is also a larger value, and the expectation of the addition can be further increased.

(2) Specialized production In the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, a sub-game state (hereinafter referred to as “specialized production state”) is provided in which the production content is specialized for the additional notification production over a predetermined game period. Has been done. Therefore, the production performed in the specialized production state (hereinafter referred to as "specialized production") is a production with high expectations for the player from the viewpoint of adding the number of ART games. The specialized production state is a specific example of the special production state according to the present invention.

Whether or not there is a transition to the specialized production state is the normal operating state of ART (BB non-operating, BB non-winning, non-BB internal, ART state during non-specialized production: hereinafter also referred to as "ART normal operating state"). Is determined by lottery (specialized type lottery during ART, which will be described later). In this embodiment, as shown in the ART medium specialization type lottery table (see FIGS. 145 to 150 described later), the number of remaining specialization games in the additional specialization state managed on the main side is counted. When the value of the special game counter is "6" or more (the number of ART additional games scheduled to be added internally is 60 games or more), the probability that the sub-game state will shift to the specialized production state is high. Designed to be taller. Further, when the value of the special game number counter is "6" or more and the difference game number is "40" or more, the sub-game state always shifts to the special effect state. There is.

Further, in the present embodiment, eight types of specialized effects referred to as "specialized zone A" to "specialized zone H" are prepared as the types of specialized effects. Among these specialized zones, in the specialized production of the specialized zone G, when the number of difference games is larger than 100 games, the number of three-digit notification games may be displayed in the additional notification production. The game period (value of the specialization counter described later) in the special production state is determined according to the value of the special game number counter managed on the main side and the type of special production (FIG. 157 described later). And FIG. 158).

As described above, in the present embodiment, the specialized effect is performed according to the number of ART games (number of difference games) scheduled to be added internally. When such a specialized effect (specialized effect state) is provided, the same effect as the effect obtained by the above-mentioned additional notification effect can be obtained, and the difference between the number of internal ART games and the number of displayed ART games (difference game) can be obtained. It is possible to prevent the number) from becoming too large, and it is possible to prevent the production content from becoming unnatural.

Further, in the present embodiment, as described above, from the first game of the start of the ART state, the main side plays a game in the additional specialized state to determine the initial number of games of the ART. At this time, the sub side also also performs the ART. Specialized production is performed from the first game of the start of the state.

The type of specialized effect performed from the first game of the ART state is based on the drive type (normal drive or special drive: see Fig. 13) specified in the skill effect of the reward card acquired by the time of CZ introduction. It is determined. For example, if the drive type specified in the skill effect of the reward card is a normal drive, a special effect of any of the special zones A to C is performed, and if the drive type is a special drive, the special drive is performed. Specialized production of specialized zone D is performed. Specifically, when the rank of the reward card is rank "1", "4" or "7", the special effect of the special zone B is performed, and the rank of the reward card is rank "2" or If it is "5", the special production of the special zone A is performed, and if the rank of the reward card is rank "3" or "6", the special production of the special zone C is performed. Will be rewarded. Further, when the rank of the reward card is rank "8", "9" or "10", the special effect of the special zone D is performed. If the rank of the reward card is rank "0" for which the drive type is not specified in the skill effect, the special effect of the special zone C is performed.

Then, in the present embodiment, after the third stop of the final game in the ART preparation state (after the transition to RT3), the effect for introducing ART and the effect for entering the specialized effect are performed. Therefore, in the present embodiment, an additional notification effect is generated by a specialized effect from the first game starting in the ART state. The present invention is not limited to this, and for example, an effect for introducing ART and an effect for entering a specialized effect are performed in the first game of the start of the ART state, and an additional notification effect is generated from the second game. It may be configured. In this case, the number of difference games is generated from the start of the ART state.

(3) Display effect of special card In the present embodiment, the display effect of the attack type card, the defense type card, and the reward type card (effect by UI) is performed by the control of the sub side in the normal ART state. A special card other than the one in the above card will be displayed (acquired). The display effect of the special card is a specific example of the specific display effect according to the present invention.

Whether or not the special card is displayed is determined according to the number of difference games. Specifically, in the normal ART state, a special card acquisition lottery is performed based on the number of difference games, and when the lottery is won, one special card is acquired and the acquired special card is displayed on a liquid crystal display device. The execution of the effect to be displayed on 11 is determined. The probability that the special card display effect will be performed (the probability that the special card will be acquired) will increase as the difference game becomes higher.

Further, in the present embodiment, the presence / absence of the transition to the special effect state is determined (lottery) by referring to the presence / absence of the display of the special card in addition to the number of difference games. When two special cards are displayed and the number of difference games is "100" or more, there is a high probability that the sub-game state will shift to the special production state of the special zone H. Become.

As described above, in the present embodiment, it is possible to control whether or not the special effect is generated based on the display effect of the special card. Therefore, when such a special card display effect is provided, it is possible to prevent the difference (number of difference games) between the number of internal ART games and the number of displayed ART games from becoming too large, and the number of internal ART games. It is possible to effectively suggest the size of the difference (the number of difference games) from the number of displayed ART games by the display effect of the special card.

The special zone H is a special effect that shifts only when two special cards are displayed. In addition, in a situation where two special cards are displayed, if it is decided to shift to the special production state, the production of displaying the third special card is performed in the production, and then the special production is performed. A transition effect (rush effect) to the state is performed. In the lottery on the main side during ART, the internal winning combination related to "Bell" does not win the game in the additional specialized state, but in the lottery on the sub side, the internal winning related to "Bell (batting order bell)" Depending on the role, the special production of the special zone H can be won (see FIG. 144 described later). Therefore, in the present embodiment, even if the role has no expectation for the specialized game internally, it can be a role that can be expected in the production, and the interest of the game can be enhanced.

(4) Display effect of ART stage In the present embodiment, a plurality of types of stage modes (ART stages A to C) are provided for effect in the normal ART state. Then, the selection of the ART stage type (shift of the ART stage) is determined according to the number of difference games. Then, when the ART stage is selected (when the transition of the ART stage is determined), the display effect of the ART stage corresponding to the selection result is performed. The ART stages A to C are specific examples of the effect mode according to the present invention.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the determination process of the notification game displayed in the additional notification effect, the type of ART stage is also referred to in addition to the number of difference games. Therefore, the magnitude of the difference (number of difference games) between the number of internal ART games and the number of displayed ART games can be effectively suggested by the display effect of the ART stage.

(5) Character song output production and 3-digit addition notification production in the special zone G In the present embodiment, when the number of difference games is equal to or more than the predetermined number of games (350 games in the present embodiment) in the normal ART state. In addition, the output effect of the character song is performed with a predetermined probability. In the present embodiment, when the number of notification games is determined by lottery, the output / non-output state of the character song (the on / off state of the character song flag described later) is referred to. That is, the output / non-output state of the character song is one of the parameters for determining the number of notification games. The character song is a specific example of a specific voice according to the present invention.

The information on the on / off state of the character song flag (output / non-output state of the character song) is basically information for facilitating the subsequent specialization effect (character song is the subsequent specialization). It is something that makes you expect a production). However, when the bonus (NBB) is won, if the character song is continuously played (continued to be output) even during the bonus, the character song is played for a long time, and its rarity value may be diminished. Therefore, it is also possible to adopt a method of playing music dedicated to the bonus during the bonus and restarting the output of the character song after the bonus ends. However, in this method, it may be recognized that a plurality of character song generation conditions (the number of difference games is 350 games or more) are satisfied. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the output of the character song is terminated when the bonus operation is started, and at the end of the bonus, a large number of notification games (value using most of the difference games) is announced as a special production. Do it instead.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the situation where the output production of the character song is performed in the normal ART state (the number of difference games is 350 games or more), and when the role of rare is won, the special feature is always given. The special production of the conversion zone G is executed. Then, in this case, in the special production of the special zone G, there is a possibility that an additional notification production of three digits (300 games in the present embodiment) is selected.

In addition, the special production of the special zone G is performed for a maximum of 4 games, and if the number of notification games is drawn in the 3rd game in the special zone G, the 3rd game is used. An additional notification effect of 3 digits (300 games) occurs.

By providing the above-mentioned character song output production and the 3-digit addition notification production in the special zone G, it is possible to raise the expectation of the player for the additional production in the special zone G and improve the interest of the game. Can be made to. In addition, when the above-mentioned character song output effect and the three-digit additional notification effect in the special zone G are provided, the size of the difference (the number of difference games) between the number of internal ART games and the number of displayed ART games is determined by these effects. Can be suggested more effectively. Further, by providing the three-digit additional notification effect in the special zone G, it is possible to prevent the deviation (the number of difference games) between the number of internal ART games and the number of displayed ART games from becoming too large. The three-digit additional effect in the special zone G is a specific example of the specific additional effect according to the present invention.

(6) Story BB effect In the present embodiment, when the NBB is won during the ART state, a lottery for generating the story BB effect is performed. In the story BB production, a story-like production is executed during the game period from the start to the end of the BB. By providing such an effect, it is possible to enhance the player's interest in the effect during the BB period.

<Correspondence table between the main lottery flag and the sub lottery flag>
In the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, various lottery is performed to determine the content of the effect to be executed on the sub side. In various lottery tables used for this lottery process, as described later, a lottery value is set for each flag called "sub lottery flag" set according to the type of the main lottery flag, instead of the main lottery flag included in the start command. Is regulated. Therefore, when performing lottery processing with reference to these lottery tables, first, the main lottery flag is converted into a sub lottery flag, and then the lottery process is performed based on the sub-lottery flag generated by the conversion. Will be.

In the present embodiment, two types of flags called "sub-lottery flag A" and "sub-lottery flag B" are provided as the sub-lottery flag. Here, FIG. 107 shows a correspondence table between the main lottery flag and the sub lottery flag A and the sub lottery flag B.

In the conversion process of the main lottery flag to the sub lottery flag in the present embodiment, a plurality of main lottery flags belonging to the same type are combined into one sub lottery flag. In the conversion process of the main lottery flag to the sub lottery flag A, as shown in FIG. 107, 18 kinds of main lottery flags (flag numbers "0" to "17") are converted into 15 kinds of sub lottery flags (flag number "flag number". It is converted to "0" to "14"). On the other hand, in the conversion process of the main lottery flag to the sub lottery flag B, 18 kinds of main lottery flags (flag numbers "0" to "17") and 16 kinds of sub lottery flags (flag numbers "0" to "15") are used. ": Flag data) is converted.

Here, in order to simplify the explanation, only those in which a plurality of types of main lottery flags are converted into one sub-lottery flag will be described.

In the conversion process of the main lottery flag to the sub lottery flag A, for example, the main lottery flags "F_normal lip" (flag number "1") to "F_RT3 transition" (flag number "3") are all sub lottery. It is converted to flag A "rip" (flag number "1"). In addition, the main lottery flag "F_common bell 1" (flag number "8") and "F_common bell 2" (flag number "9") are both sub-lottery flag A "rip" (flag number "1"). Is converted to.

In the conversion process of the main lottery flag to the sub lottery flag B, for example, as shown in FIG. 107, the main lottery flag "F_normal lip" (flag number "1") to "F_RT3 transition" (flag number "Flag number" " 3)) are all converted to the sub lottery flag B “lip” (flag number “1”), but the main lottery flags “F_common bell 1” (flag number “8”) and “F_common bell 2” (Flag number "9") is converted into sub-lottery flag B "common bell" (flag number "3") and "common bell 2" (flag number "4"), respectively.

<Structure of data table stored in ROM cartridge board>
Next, the configurations of various data tables stored in the ROM cartridge substrate 86 will be described with reference to FIGS. 108 to 202. Although not shown in the various lottery tables described below, the random number denominators of each lottery table are all "32768" (the acquired random number value is any of 0 to 32767).

[Composition of various production lottery tables and production tables]
First, in the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, an example of an effect lottery table used when selecting (determining) an effect to be executed on the sub side will be described.

(1) Normal Medium Production Lottery Table FIG. 108 shows an example of a normal medium production lottery table. In the normal state (BB non-operation, BB non-winning, non-BB inside, non-card rank up), the stage type is stage A and the stage background type is "stage" in the normal middle production lottery table shown in FIG. 108. It is an effect lottery table that is referred to when it is "daytime" and the lottery state is low.

The display effect indicating the stage A (hereinafter, referred to as “stage A display”) is an effect of displaying the background (place) of a grassland, a town, or the like associated with the stage A, for example. In the display effect indicating stage B (hereinafter referred to as "stage B display"), the background (place) of grasslands, towns, etc. associated with stage B is displayed, and the display effect indicating stage C (hereinafter referred to as "stage B display") is displayed. In "stage C display"), the background (place) of grasslands, towns, etc. associated with stage C is displayed.

The "stage A display", "stage B display", and "stage C display" are, in principle, executed when stages A to C are set as internal modes, respectively. That is, in principle, the content of the stage display effect and the internal mode have a corresponding relationship. However, in the present embodiment, in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting change, for example, when the "stage A display" and the internal mode are not compatible (when the internal mode is other than stage A). There is also.

Further, in the display effect of each stage, "day", "evening" and "night" modes (stage background) are provided for the same background (place). For example, the display effect of "stage day" is provided. Then, the background of the set stage type display image is the daytime image. In addition, in this embodiment, these stage backgrounds suggest the high and low of the winning probability, and when arranged in descending order of the winning probability, the order is "stage night", "stage evening", and "stage day".

That is, in the present embodiment, the lottery mode in the normal state is notified by the combination of the background image of the place and the like and the background image of day, evening, and night. The present invention is not limited to this, and a character may be adopted instead of the background. Further, for example, the lottery mode may be suggested by the combination of the background and the character or the combination of the character and the character.

Here, in order to simplify the explanation, the stage type is stage A and the stage background type in the normal state (BB non-operation, BB non-winning, non-BB inside, non-card rank up). Is "stage daytime" and the lottery state is low, the normal medium production lottery table is shown as an example of the normal medium production lottery table. However, in the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, a normal middle-effect lottery table is appropriately provided for various other gaming situations in the normal state. In each of the normal production lottery tables in those other game situations, the value of the specified lottery value changes according to the game situation, but the structure of the lottery table is the same as the structure shown in FIG. 108.

The normal middle effect lottery table is referred to when selecting (determining) the effect pattern number based on the game status and the sub lottery flag (internal winning combination) at the start of the unit game in the normal state. In the normal middle effect lottery table, for each sub-lottery flag B, the correspondence between various selectable effect pattern numbers (“No.” in FIG. 108) and the lottery value set for each effect pattern number. Prescribe. The effect pattern number is associated with an effect data table described later for executing the effect content corresponding to the effect pattern number. In addition, 331 types of production contents (effect pattern numbers 0 to 330) are defined in the normal medium production lottery table.

Then, for example, in the effect lottery process using the normal medium effect lottery table shown in FIG. 108, when the sub lottery flag B (internal winning combination) is "rip", the effect pattern number "2287/32768" is probable. "0" is selected, and the effect pattern number "2" is selected with a probability of 10923/32768.

(2) Configuration of effect data table FIGS. 109 and 110 show the configuration of the effect data table associated with each effect pattern number defined in the normal medium effect lottery table of FIG. 108.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 109 and 110, the effect data table is composed of an effect pattern number and a set of a plurality of types of effect parameter items associated with the effect pattern number. Multiple types of production parameter items include "GrID", "GrNo", "inc", "table", "MOE", "CH_GrID", "CH_GrNo", "WIN", "PRE", "GTY", and "GrID". 14 types of effect parameter items of "UI", "LED", "ST" and "DB" are defined.

FIG. 111 shows a table summarizing the contents of each effect parameter item. Here, in order to simplify the explanation, characteristic effect parameter items "GrID", "GrNo", "inc", "table", "MOE", "CH_GrID", "CH_GrNo", "UI", “LED”, “ST” and “DB” will be described, and description of other effect parameter items will be omitted.

The effect parameter item "GrID" is a data number indicating a group code of the effect. The effect parameter item "GrNo" is an effect pattern number in each group code of the effect. That is, the effect parameter item "GrID" is the major classification data of the effect data, and the effect parameter item "GrNo" is the minor category data of the effect data.

Here, FIGS. 112A and 112B show an example of the correspondence between the effect parameter item “GrID” and the effect parameter item “GrNo”. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 112A, 128 types of group codes (effect groups 1 to 128) are provided as effect group codes, and the effect parameter item "GrID" is set to one-to-one for each group code. It is associated.

Further, for example, for the effect group 37 in which the effect parameter item “GrID” is “37”, 186 types of effect patterns (effect patterns 1 to 186) are provided as shown in FIG. 112B, and each effect pattern is provided. The effect parameter item "GrNo" is associated with the above on a one-to-one basis. Therefore, for example, in the effect data table, when "37" is specified in the effect parameter item "GrID" and "12" is specified in the effect parameter item "GrNo", the effect pattern 12 of the effect group 37 is specified. Production data is selected (designated).

The effect parameter items "inc" and "table" are parameters that specify another effect data table when the effect is not specified in the effect parameter items "GrID" and "GrNo".

In this way, instead of defining all the effects that can be determined in the effect data table in one table, if a configuration is adopted in which another table is specified as needed, even if the total number of effects that can be determined is large. The production can be subdivided according to the content, etc., facilitating design and development. Further, by making it possible to specify another effect data table in the effect data table, it is possible to prevent the size (capacity) of the effect data table from becoming enormous. Furthermore, since it is possible to directly specify the production data for a simple production with few patterns, and to specify another production data table for a complicated production with many patterns, the production content is light and heavy. Can be easily attached.

The effect parameter item "MOE" is a parameter that specifies whether or not to execute an additional (interrupt) effect in the specified effect. In the present embodiment, the effect parameter item "MOE" is used as a parameter indicating whether or not to perform a lottery (cut-in lottery described later) for determining whether or not to execute an additional (interrupt) effect called a cut-in effect. To do. Then, when "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "MOE", the cut-in lottery described later is performed. The cut-in effect is an example of an additional effect according to the present invention. Further, in the present embodiment, an example in which the effect parameter item “MOE” is used as a parameter indicating whether or not to perform a lottery for determining whether or not to execute the cut-in effect has been described. The effect parameter item "MOE" may be used as a parameter for directly specifying whether or not to execute the cut-in effect.

Further, for example, the effect parameter item "MOE" may be configured to specify both whether or not the cut-in effect is executed and whether or not the cut-in effect lottery is executed. In this case, there are three types of values specified by the effect parameter item "MOE". For example, when specifying the execution of the cut-in effect lottery, "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "MOE" to execute the cut-in effect. When specifying, specify "2" in the effect parameter item "MOE", and specify "0" in the effect parameter item "MOE" when specifying not to execute the cut-in effect and the cut-in effect lottery. To do.

Further, for example, the effect parameter item "MOE" specifies the execution of the cut-in effect or the lottery for whether or not to execute the cut-in effect (that is, the effect parameter item "MOE" executes the cut-in effect. (Structure in which none and no lottery for cut-in effect are not specified) may be used. In this case, there are two types of values defined by the effect parameter item "MOE".

When the above-mentioned effect parameter item "MOE" is specified in the effect data table, it is possible to easily manage the presence or absence of an effect that may additionally occur only during a specific effect, such as a cut-in effect. Further, in this case, it is possible to appropriately change only the presence or absence of an additional effect that can occur without changing the designated effect data or the like.

In the cut-in effect referred to here, the image of the additional (interrupt) effect is mainly projected on the image corresponding to the effect specified in the effect data table. At this time, the image of the additional effect may be superimposed on the entire surface of the image of the designated effect (the entire surface of the display screen of the liquid crystal display device 11), or the image of the additional effect may be displayed on a part of the image of the specified effect. May be superimposed and displayed. In the latter case, the image of the designated effect is projected on the portion of the other area where the image of the additional effect is not superimposed and displayed.

Further, the timing for generating the cut-in effect (additional (interrupt) effect) can be appropriately set according to the content of the specified effect, but the content of the effect cannot be recognized due to the occurrence of the cut-in effect. It is not preferable to have a good timing (a timing that makes it difficult to understand the content of the production). Therefore, it is preferable to set the timing at which the cut-in effect (addition (interrupt) effect) is generated at the timing at which the image switching occurs, for example, during the lever operation or the stop operation.

The effect parameter item "UI" is a parameter that specifies whether or not to display the UI (user interface). The "UI" display function referred to in the present specification displays a game status notification image composed of a plurality of types of information images showing the current game status (game progress status) on the display screen of the liquid crystal display device 11. It is a function to do. In addition, the types and patterns of various information images constituting the game status notification image change according to the game state (ball ejection state).

In the present embodiment, four types of UI are provided: "normal UI (large)", "normal UI (small)", "battle UI", and "ART_UI".

The "normal UI (large)" and "normal UI (small)" are games in the normal state, and information such as the number of remaining games in the cycle, the card pattern, the number of credits, and the number of payouts are displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11 in the current game status. It is a UI that is displayed as information indicating (game progress status). The "normal UI (large)" is a UI in which the size of the displayed information image (information image such as the number of remaining games in the cycle and the card pattern) that indicates the status of the current game is large, and is "normal UI (small)". Is a UI that reduces the size of the displayed information image (information image such as the number of remaining games in the cycle and the card pattern) indicating the status of the current game. In the present embodiment, the size of the display screen of the liquid crystal display device 11 is constant regardless of the size of the UI (game status notification image). Therefore, if the size of the UI (game status notification image) is large, the size of the effect area other than the UI on the display screen is small, and if the size of the UI (game status notification image) is small, the size other than the UI on the display screen is small. The size of the production area of is increased. That is, the size of the effect area other than the UI at the time of "normal UI (large)" is smaller than the size of the effect area other than the UI at the time of "normal UI (small)".

The "battle UI" is a UI that displays information such as icons of the main character and an enemy character on the liquid crystal display device 11 as information indicating the status of the current game in the game in the state when the CZ is introduced and in the state during the CZ. The "ART_UI" is a game in the ART state, and is a UI that displays information such as the number of remaining ART games, the number of credits, and the number of payouts on the liquid crystal display device 11 as information indicating the status of the current game.

Then, when "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI", "normal UI (large)" is selected, and when "2" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI". , "Normal UI (Small)" is selected. If "3" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI", "Battle UI" is selected, and if "4" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI", "ART_UI" is specified. Is selected. When the value of "5" or "6" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI", "no UI display" is selected. In this case, the various UIs described above are the liquid crystal display device 11. Is not displayed.

By defining the production parameter item "UI" in the production data table as described above, the production content can be determined by the combination of the production data and the presence / absence of the UI. Therefore, the production content and the display content by the UI It is possible to prevent the occurrence of a discrepancy with (information indicating the status of the current game). In this case, it becomes easy to reflect the intention of the designer, and the design development becomes easy. In addition, when the UI display is eliminated, a large screen can be produced using the UI part as well.

In the present embodiment, an example has been described in which the presence / absence of display of the UI (game status notification image) is specified by the effect parameter item "UI", and the size of the "normal UI" is also specified. , The present invention is not limited to this. For example, the effect parameter item "UI" may be configured to specify only whether or not the UI (game status notification image) is displayed, or only the size of the currently displayed UI (game status notification image) is specified. It may be configured to be used. Further, for example, the effect parameter item "UI" is configured to specify only the type of UI (game status notification image) (in this embodiment, any one of "normal UI", "battle UI", and "ART_UI"). You may.

The effect parameter item "LED" is a parameter indicating whether or not the LED effect lottery is executed. When "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "LED", the execution of the LED effect lottery is selected. In the present embodiment, an example in which the effect parameter item "LED" is used as a parameter indicating whether or not to perform a lottery for determining whether or not to execute the LED effect has been described, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, the effect parameter item "LED" may be used as a parameter for directly designating whether or not to execute the LED effect.

Further, for example, the effect parameter item "LED" may be configured to specify both whether or not the LED effect is executed and whether or not the LED effect lottery is executed. In this case, there are three types of values specified by the effect parameter item "LED". For example, when specifying the execution of the LED effect lottery, "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "LED" and the execution of the LED effect is specified. When it is specified, "2" is specified in the effect parameter item "LED", and "0" is specified in the effect parameter item "LED" when it is specified that the execution of the LED effect and the execution of the LED effect lottery are not performed.

Further, for example, the effect parameter item "LED" specifies the execution of the LED effect or the execution of the lottery as to whether or not to execute the LED effect (that is, the effect parameter item "LED" does not execute the LED effect and the LED. (Structure that does not specify no lottery for the production) may be used. In this case, there are two types of values defined by the effect parameter item "LED".

In the present embodiment, the LED display effect according to the image (predetermined according to the image) is usually performed. However, in the present embodiment, separately, when the LED effect lottery is performed, the LED display effect corresponding to the lottery is performed. By providing such a function, the LED display effect according to the result of the LED effect lottery is controlled independently of the LED display effect according to the image or the like only when necessary (desired to produce). be able to. In this case, it is possible to easily design an effect that combines the effect of the image and the effect of the LED. Further, it is possible to reduce the control load when it is not necessary to perform the LED display effect according to the LED effect lottery.

The effect parameter item "ST" is a parameter indicating whether or not the stage transition lottery (stage background transition lottery or ART stage transition lottery described later) is executed. When any one of "1" to "3" is specified in the effect parameter item "ST", the execution of the stage transition lottery corresponding to the ST value is selected. In the stage transition effect (stage change effect), the stage (background) image is switched, but at this time, the stage (background) is usually directly (suddenly) directly to the transition destination stage (background). ) Instead of changing, the image of the stage (background) changes (transitions) with an image called a single picture or eye catch in between. Further, the effect parameter item "DB" is a parameter indicating whether or not the demo transition is prohibited. When "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "DB", the demo transition prohibition is selected.

In this way, by defining in the production data table whether or not to execute stage transition (change) or demo transition, which can cause the production to be interrupted, whether or not the production is interrupted due to stage transition (change) or demo transition, etc. , It can be managed appropriately without actually executing and confirming the production. In this case, confirmation work after design becomes unnecessary, and design development becomes easy.

Further, by providing the effect data table having the above-described configuration, the following effects can be obtained. When a large number of effects such as an effect specified by the effect parameter items "GrID" and "GrNo" or the effect parameter items "inc" and "table", an additional effect such as a cut-in effect, and a stage change effect are generated at the same time. , The impression of each production is weakened, and on the contrary, there is a problem that the production effect cannot be obtained. However, as in the present embodiment, by designating the data and the table of each effect in one effect data table, it becomes easy to manage the effects that can be generated at the same time and the effects that are not generated at the same time, and the design and development are facilitated. At the same time, it becomes possible to suppress the occurrence of the above-mentioned problems.

Here, in order to simplify the explanation, a configuration example of an effect data table associated with each effect pattern number defined in the normal medium effect lottery table of FIG. 108 will be shown, but other effect lottery described later will be shown. The configuration of the effect data table associated with the effect pattern number defined in the table is also the same as the configuration shown in FIGS. 109 and 110.

(3) Normal Medium NBB Medium Production Lottery Table FIGS. 113 and 114 show an example of a normal medium NBB medium production lottery table. The normal middle NBB middle production lottery table (No. 1) shown in FIG. 113 is a game situation in which the NBB (BB1 or BB2) is operating in the normal state (a game situation in which the normal sub flag and the BB middle sub flag are on). This is an effect lottery table that is referred to when the enemy character type set in the current cycle is other than the enemy character F, and the number of digested games is within 1 to 15 games from the start of BB operation. Further, in the normal medium NBB medium production lottery table (No. 2) shown in FIG. 114, the enemy character type set in the current cycle is the enemy character in the game situation in which the NBB (BB1 or BB2) is operating in the normal state. This is an effect lottery table that is referred to when the number of digested games is 16 or more from the start of BB operation, which is other than F.

Here, in order to simplify the explanation, the enemy character type set in the current cycle is other than the enemy character F in the game situation where the NBB (BB1 or BB2) is operating in the normal state. The normal medium NBB medium production lottery table in the case is shown as an example of the normal medium NBB medium production lottery table. However, in the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, in the situation where the NBB (BB1 or BB2) is operating in the normal state, various other gaming states (for example, the enemy character type set in the current cycle is the enemy character F). (In some cases, etc.), a production lottery table during normal NBB is provided as appropriate.

When the character song flag is in the ON state, the ART middle stage transition lottery table (Nos. 7 to 9) shown in FIGS. 130A to 130C is preferentially referred to regardless of the value of the display ART counter.

The ART middle stage transition lottery table defines the correspondence between the lottery result (no transition, transfer destination ART stage type) and the lottery value set for each lottery result for each game situation. That is, in the stage transition lottery using the stage transition lottery table during ART, not only the presence or absence of transition but also the type of the transition destination ART stage is determined.

As shown in FIGS. 128 to 130, the game status defined by the stage transition lottery table during ART is the difference between the lottery state on the main side and the number of ART games (internal ART counter value-display ART counter value). ) (For example, "mode low accuracy: internal-when the display difference is 29 or less"), the game situation called "during stage C: maintenance state", and "during stage C: waiting for fall". It is a game situation. In addition, "during stage C: maintenance state" is a state in which the cumulative number of notified games after the ART stage shifts to ART stage C is less than 30 games, and "during stage C: waiting for a fall". "" Means a state in which the cumulative number of notification games since the ART stage shifts to ART stage C is 30 or more. In addition, the number of notification games after the ART stage shifts to ART stage C includes the number of notification games determined or announced in the additional specialized game or the BB state game executed during ART stage C. Is done.

As shown in FIGS. 128 to 130, when the character song flag is off, it is possible to shift to various ART stages in most gaming situations. However, when the character song flag is on, the ART stage is not transferred in the game situation other than "Stage C: Waiting for fall", and in the game situation of "Stage C: Waiting for fall", 1 /. With a probability of 2, the ART stage shifts (falls) to ART stage B.

Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 128 to 130, when the ART stage is the ART stage C, it is displayed regardless of the lottery state (game state) on the main side and the number of difference games of ART. The ART stage of the migration destination is determined based on the value of the ART counter or the on / off state of the character song flag. Further, in the ART stage C, when the cumulative number of notified games after the transition to the ART stage C is less than 30 games, the state of the ART stage C is maintained. When such a stage (effect mode) is provided on the sub side, the player can be made to feel as if there is a stage (effect mode) in which it is easy to win in addition to the number of ART games. That is, regardless of the game situation on the main side, it is possible to produce a pseudo additional high probability state on the sub side. In the present embodiment, a configuration example in which the ART stage to be transferred can be determined regardless of the game situation on the main side only when the ART stage is the ART stage C has been described, but the present invention is limited to this.

Will be executed if. That is, in principle, the content of the stage display effect and the internal mode have a corresponding relationship. However, in the present embodiment, in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting change, for example, when the "stage A display" and the internal mode are not compatible (when the internal mode is other than stage A). There is also.

[Display production lottery table when card is promoted]
Next, with reference to FIG. 136, a card promotion display effect lottery table will be described. In the present embodiment, when the card is acquired in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or the power is restored after 2 hours of power failure (at the time of card rank up), the card display as to whether or not to display the acquired card. A lottery will be held. The card promotion display effect lottery table shown in FIG. 136 is a lottery table referred to in this card display lottery.

The card promotion display effect lottery table defines the correspondence between the lottery result (winning / non-winning) and the lottery value set for each lottery result for each sub lottery flag A.

Then, in the card display lottery using the card promotion display effect lottery table shown in FIG. 136, when the sub lottery flag A is "miss", "middle check", "MB1" and "MB2", the card is displayed. The lottery will always be non-winning, and even if the card rank is increased, the cards after the rank increase will not be displayed. On the other hand, when the sub lottery flag A is "watermelon", "strong chan", "strong che" and "MB_strong che", the card display lottery is always a win and the rank-up card is displayed. If the sub lottery flag A is another flag, the card display lottery is won with a probability of 1/2, and the rank-up card is displayed.

In this embodiment, as the number of rank-ups in one rank promotion, a value that can be promoted to all ranks is not set, and a predetermined value (for example, as shown in FIG. 68) is set. In this embodiment, only one of 1, 2, 3, 5 and 9) is used. Further, each card rank set when the setting is changed is also a predetermined value (in this embodiment, any of 0, 1 and 3) as shown in FIG. 73, for example. That is, in the game in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting change, the rank promotion mode is a mode determined to some extent. Therefore, there is no lottery using the card promotion display effect lottery table shown in FIG. 136, and in the game in the normal state of the first cycle after the initialization process is performed, the display effect of the card after rank up is always displayed at the time of rank promotion. If so, for example, when the displayed rank of the card after rank-up becomes a rank that does not occur when the setting is changed (number of rank-ups), whether or not the setting has been changed (power supply after 2 hours of power failure). There is a possibility that the player will determine whether it is (at the time of return). At this time, the player can narrow down the rank before promotion. However, as in the present embodiment, when a configuration is adopted in which the display effect of the card after the rank is increased only when the lottery using the card promotion display effect lottery table shown in FIG. 136 is won, the setting is changed. It becomes difficult to determine whether or not (when the power is restored after 2 hours of power failure), and it becomes difficult to narrow down the rank before promotion from the displayed card rank.

[Medal reception / start check processing]
Next, with reference to FIG. 207, the medal acceptance / start check process performed in S3 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not there is an automatic input request (S71). The presence or absence of this automatic closing request is performed by determining whether or not the automatic closing counter is "0". That is, when the automatic closing counter is "0", the main CPU 93 determines that there is no automatic closing request, and when the automatic closing counter is "1" or more, it determines that there is an automatic closing request.

The automatic input counter is data for identifying whether or not the display combination related to the replay is established in the previous game. When the display combination related to the re-game is established, the number of medals inserted in the previous game is automatically inserted into the automatic insertion counter.

When the main CPU 93 determines in S71 that there is an automatic closing request (when the determination in S71 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs an automatic closing process (S72). In this process, the value of the automatic input counter is copied to the input number counter, and then the value of the automatic input counter is cleared. After that, the main CPU 93 performs the process of S79 described later.

On the other hand, in S71, when the main CPU 93 determines that there is no automatic insertion request (when the determination in S71 is NO), the main CPU 93 permits medal acceptance (S73). In this process, the solenoid of the selector 66 (see FIG. 5) is driven, and medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 20 are accepted. The accepted medals are counted and then guided to the hopper device 51.

Next, the main CPU 93 sets the maximum value of the number of inserted medals according to the gaming state (S74). Specifically, the main CPU 93 sets the maximum value of the number of inserted medals to "3".

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the medal acceptance is permitted (S75). When it is determined in S75 that the main CPU 93 is not permitted to accept medals (when the determination in S75 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S79 described later.

On the other hand, when it is determined in S75 that the main CPU 93 is permitted to accept medals (when the determination in S75 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs a medal insertion check process (S76). In this process, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not a medal has been inserted, and when a medal is inserted, adds "1" to the inserted number counter.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a medal insertion command generation / storage process (S77). In this process, the main CPU 93 generates data of a medal insertion command to be transmitted to the sub control circuit 101, and stores the command data in a communication data storage area provided in the main RAM 95. The medal insertion command stored in the communication data storage area is transmitted from the main control circuit 91 to the sub control circuit 101 by the communication data transmission process in the interrupt process described later with reference to FIG. 252. The medal insertion command includes parameters for specifying the number of inserted medals and the like.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the number of input sheets is the number of sheets that can start the game (S78). In S78, when the main CPU 93 determines that the number of input sheets is not the number of sheets that can start the game (when the determination in S78 is NO), the main CPU 93 returns the process to S75 and repeats the processes after S75. On the other hand, in S78, when the main CPU 93 determines that the number of input sheets is the number of sheets that can start the game (when the determination in S78 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S79 described later. In this embodiment, the number of games that can be started is "3".

After the processing of S72, if the determination in S75 is NO or the determination in S78 is YES, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the start switch 79 is ON (S79). When the main CPU 93 determines in S79 that the start switch 79 is not on (when the determination in S79 is NO), the main CPU 93 returns the process to S75 and repeats the processes after S75.

On the other hand, in S79, when the main CPU 93 determines that the start switch 79 is ON (when the determination in S79 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs a medal acceptance prohibition process (S80). By this process, the solenoid of the selector 66 (see FIG. 5) is not driven, and the inserted medals are ejected from the medal payout outlet 32. When this process is completed, the main CPU 93 ends the medal acceptance / start check process and shifts the process to S4 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Specifically, the main CPU 93 sets the value of the calculation result as a random value and adds 1 to the winning number.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not all the winning numbers have been checked (S96). When it is determined in S96 that the main CPU 93 has not checked all the winning numbers (when the determination in S96 is NO), the main CPU 93 returns the process to S93 and repeats the processes after S93.

On the other hand, in S96, when it is determined that the main CPU 93 has checked all the winning numbers (when the determination in S96 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets "0" as the data pointer (S97). In this process, the main CPU 93 sets "0" in each of the small winning combination / replay data pointer and the bonus data pointer.

In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the card promotion lottery table (see FIGS. 64 and 65), the game status (stage type, lottery state), set values (settings 1 to 6), and the main lottery flag (internal winning combination). ) To determine whether or not the card rank has been promoted (winning / non-winning).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a card promotion attribute lottery process (S152). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the card promotion attribute lottery table (see FIGS. 67A to 67D), and has an attribute (settings 1 to 6) for promoting the card rank based on the game status (stage type) and the set value (settings 1 to 6). Determine the offensive, defensive, or reward system).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a card promotion number lottery process (S153). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the card promotion count lottery table (see FIGS. 68 and 69), the promotion form (normal promotion or non-stay promotion), the set value (settings 1 to 6), and the main lottery flag (internal). The number of card rank ups (1, 2, 3, 5 or 9) is determined based on the winning combination).

When the attributes of the cards to be ranked up determined in S152 are the same as the attributes of the current stage (for example, when the offensive cards are ranked up in stage A), the main CPU 93 is shown in FIG. 68. The number of card promotion numbers is determined by referring to the card promotion number lottery table (Part 1: Normal promotion) shown in. On the other hand, when the attribute of the card to be ranked up determined in S152 is different from the attribute of the current stage (for example, when the defensive card is ranked up in stage A), the main CPU 93 is shown in FIG. Number of card promotion The number of card rank ups is determined by referring to the lottery table (Part 2: Non-stay promotion).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a card rank update process (S154). In this process, the main CPU 93 reflects the lottery result of the card rank promotion lottery performed in S151 to S153 in the card rank.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs an enemy character promotion lottery process (S155). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the enemy character promotion lottery table (see FIG. 92) at the time of NBB winning, and determines the winning or non-winning of the enemy character promotion lottery based on the set values (settings 1 to 6).

Next, the main CPU 93 sets the value of the instruction generation counter to "2" (S159). The instruction generation counter is a counter provided for determining the timing of executing the notification of the BB role (red 7 navigation, blue navigation or BAR navigation) using the instruction display unit (not shown) at the time of winning the BB. .. The value of the instruction generation counter is decremented by 1 each time one game is digested after winning the BB, and when the value of the instruction generation counter becomes "0", the instruction display unit notifies the BB combination. Therefore, as in the present embodiment, when NBB (BB1 or BB2) wins and the value of the instruction generation counter is set to "2" in the normal state, two games are digested after winning the BB. Then, the notification of the BB role (red 7 navigation or blue 7 navigation) by the instruction display unit is executed.

Next, with reference to FIG. 216, the lottery process at the time of CZ introduction performed in S202 (at the time of winning the NBB), S208 (at the time of winning the MB) or S210 (inside the inside of the BB) during the processing at the time of CZ introduction (see FIG. 215). explain.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the cycle count counter is larger than "1" (S211).

In S211 when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the cycle count counter is not larger than "1" (when the determination in S211 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S216 described later. On the other hand, in S211 when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the cycle count counter is larger than "1" (when the determination in S221 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ranks of all the cards are "0". (S212).

In S212, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ranks of all the cards are not "0" (when the determination in S212 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S216 described later. On the other hand, in S212, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ranks of all the cards are "0" (when the determination in S212 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs the battle victory rewriting lottery process (S213). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the common lottery table (see FIG. 62E) having a winning probability of 55%, and determines the winning / non-winning of the battle victory rewriting lottery based on the set values (settings 1 to 6).

In this embodiment, an example in which a battle victory rewrite lottery is performed when the card ranks of all the cards are "0" at the time of introducing CZ in a cycle other than the first cycle (after setting change and immediately after the end of ART). As described above, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, even if the card ranks of all the cards are "9" or "10" at the time of introducing CZ, the battle victory rewriting lottery may be performed.

In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the CZ specified number of games shortening lottery table (see FIGS. 74 to 78), and the card rank, set value (settings 1 to 6), and main lottery flag of the reward card at the time of introducing CZ. Based on (internal winning combination), the number of shortened games (0 games, 5 games, 10 games, 20 games, 30 games or 50 games) of the CZ specified number of games is determined.

Next, the main CPU 93 subtracts the lottery result (number of shortened games) of S217 from the initial value "70" of the number of CZ specified games, and sets the subtracted value to the number of CZ specified games (S218). Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the current game is an NBB winning game (S219).

In S219, when the main CPU 93 determines that the current game is not the NBB winning game (when the determination in S219 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the lottery process at the time of introducing CZ and processes at the time of introducing CZ (see FIG. 215). Also ends.

Then, after the processing of S238, the main CPU 93 ends the processing during CZ, and also ends the lottery processing at the time of lever-on (see FIG. 209).

On the other hand, in S237, when the main CPU 93 determines that the current game is not a game in the MB state (when the determination in S237 is NO), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the current game is a game in the BB internal state. (S239). In this process, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the current game is a game in the BB internal middle state with reference to the game state flag storage area.

In S239, when the main CPU 93 determines that the current game is not a game in the BB internal medium state (when the determination in S239 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs a lottery process during CZ (S240). In this process, the main CPU 93 executes various lottery processes performed in the game in the no-BB internal medium state in the CZ medium state. In the CZ middle lottery process performed in the process of S240, the same lottery process as the CZ middle lottery process of S236 performed when it is determined that the current game is the MB winning game is performed. The details of the lottery process during CZ will be described later with reference to FIG. 218 described later. Then, after the processing of S240, the main CPU 93 ends the processing during CZ, and also ends the lottery processing at the time of lever-on (see FIG. 209).

The details of the battle offense and defense lottery process will be described later with reference to FIG. 219 described later.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a card skill activation lottery process (S252). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the common lottery table of the winning probability corresponding to the skill effect activation probability defined by the skill effect of each card, and based on the set value (settings 1 to 6), each card. Determine the winning / non-winning of the activation of the skill effect of. For example, when the card rank of the attacking card is "2", the skill effect is activated with a probability of 50% (see FIG. 11), so that the main CPU 93 is a common lottery with a winning probability of 50% shown in FIG. 62D. Refer to the table and determine whether or not the skill effect of the attacking card is activated (winning / non-winning) based on the set value (settings 1 to 6).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a lottery result reflection process of the battle offensive and defensive lottery process and the card skill activation lottery process (S253). In this process, for example, the life value of the main character is based on the results of the battle offense and defense lottery process and the card skill activation lottery process (subtraction value or addition value of the life value of the main character, subtraction value of the life value of the enemy character, etc.). Update (subtraction, addition or maintenance) processing, or update (subtraction or maintenance) processing of the life value of the enemy character is performed.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the battle victory is confirmed based on the result of the reflection process in S253 (S254). In this process, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the life value of the enemy character is "0" or less. In this embodiment, even if the life value of the main character and the life value of the enemy character are simultaneously "0" or less, the judgment process of S254 refers to the life value of the enemy character and the main character. Does not refer to the life value of (The reference process of the life value of the main character is performed in the process of S256 described later). Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the life value of the main character and the life value of the enemy character are simultaneously "0" or less, the result of the determination process of S254 is a battle victory (ART winning).

In S254, when the main CPU 93 determines that the battle victory has been confirmed (when the determination in S254 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the victory confirmation flag (ART winning confirmation flag) to the ON state (S255).

Next, the instruction monitor set processing performed in S8 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described with reference to FIG. 235.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the main game state is between the BB flags (BB internal medium state) (S461). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the game state flag storage area and determines whether or not the main game state is between the BB flags (inside the BB state).

In S461, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is not between the BB flags (when the determination in S461 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S465 described later. On the other hand, in S461, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is between the BB flags (when the determination in S461 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the instruction generation counter is "0". Determine (S462).

In S462, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the instruction generation counter is "0" (when the determination in S462 is YES), the main CPU 93 notifies the BB role being carried over (red 7 navigation, blue 7 navigation). Or, display set processing of the instruction monitor number (“7”, “8” or “9”) corresponding to (BAR navigation) is performed (S463). By this process, the instruction display unit notifies the BB combination. Then, after the processing of S463, the main CPU 93 performs the processing of S465 described later.

On the other hand, in S462, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the instruction generation counter is not "0" (when the determination in S462 is NO), the main CPU 93 subtracts 1 from the value of the instruction generation counter (S464).

After the processing of S464 or S463, or when the determination in S461 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the batting order navigation has occurred (S465). In this process, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the batting order navigation has occurred, based on the ball ejection state, the internal winning combination, and the like. For example, in the ART state, when the internal winning combination related to the batting order bell (for example, abbreviations "F_left bell 1", "F_middle bell 1", "F_right bell 1", etc.) wins, the main CPU 93 determines. It is determined that the batting order navigation has occurred.

When the main CPU 93 determines in S465 that the batting order navigation has not occurred (when the determination in S465 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the instruction monitor set process and shifts the process to S9 in the main flow (see FIG. 203). ..

On the other hand, in S465, when the main CPU 93 determines that the batting order navigation has occurred (when the determination in S465 is YES), the main CPU 93 has the instruction monitor numbers ("1" to "6" corresponding to the type of the internal winning combination. (S466). By this process, the instruction display unit notifies the batting order of the stop buttons (the order of the reel stop operations). Then, after the processing of S466, the main CPU 93 ends the instruction monitor set processing, and shifts the processing to S9 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

[Reel stop initial setting process]
Next, with reference to FIG. 236, the reel stop initial setting process performed in S9 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the main gaming state is the BB state (any of the BB1 to BB3 states) (S471).

In S471, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main gaming state is the BB state (when the determination in S471 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S473 described later. On the other hand, in S471, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is not the BB state (when the determination in S471 is NO), the main CPU 93 sets the value of the small winning combination / replay data pointer as the rotation stop number. (S472).

After the processing of S472 or when the determination in S471 is YES, the main CPU 93 refers to the reel stop initial setting table (not shown), and based on the acquired reel stop number, various information corresponding to the reel stop number. (S473). In this process, the number of the stop table of the reels used during the first stop to the third stop and the information necessary for the control change process (when the reels are stopped in a specific order and the reels are stopped at a specific position). Information for reselecting the stop table) and the like are acquired again.

The reel stop initial setting table defines the correspondence between the reel stop number and various information such as the pull-in priority table selection data and the pull-in priority table number, which will be described later. Further, the stop table is a table that directly or indirectly defines information on the number of sliding pieces with respect to the pressed position of the stop button. In this stop table, the number of sliding pieces is used so that the reel stops at the stop position intended by the designer so as not to give a disadvantage to the player and to cause an erroneous winning by using the specified information. Is stipulated.

Next, the main CPU 93 stores the rotating identifier "0FFH (11111111B)" in the symbol code storage area (see FIG. 104) (S474).

Next, the main CPU 93 stores "3" in the stop button non-operation counter provided in the main RAM 95 (S475). After that, the main CPU 93 ends the reel stop initial setting process, and shifts the process to S10 of the main flow (see FIG. 203). The stop button non-operation counter is a counter for managing the number of stop buttons for which a stop operation has not been detected.

[Pull-in priority storage process]
Next, with reference to FIG. 237, the pull-in priority storage process performed in S12 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 stores the value of the stop button non-operation counter as the number of searches in the main RAM 95 (S481). Next, the main CPU 93 performs a search target reel determination process (S482). In this process, the main CPU 93 selects a predetermined reel from, for example, a rotating reel, and determines the selected reel as a search target reel.

For example, in the process of S482, when all (three) reels are rotated, the left reel 3L is first determined as the search target reel. After that, various processes up to S491, which will be described later, are performed on the left reel 3L, and when returning to S482 again, the middle reel 3C is next determined as the search target reel. Then, various processes up to S491, which will be described later, are performed on the middle reel 3C, and when the process returns to S482 again, the right reel 3R is next determined as the search target reel.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a pull-in priority table selection process (S483). In this process, the pull-in priority table is selected based on the internal winning combination (data pointer) and the operation stop button. The details of the pull-in priority table selection process will be described later with reference to FIG. 238, which will be described later.

Next, the main CPU 93 sets "0" as the position data of the search symbol and sets "20" as the number of symbol checks (S484). Then, the main CPU 93 performs a symbol code storage process (S485). In this process, the symbol code corresponding to the position data of the current search symbol located on the effective line of the search target reel is stored in the symbol code storage area. At this time, the symbol codes for the number of valid lines are stored. The details of the symbol code storage process will be described later with reference to FIG. 239 described later.

Next, the main CPU 93 updates the display combination storage area (see FIG. 99) based on the symbol code acquired in S485 and the data of the symbol code storage area (see FIG. 104) (S486). At this point, regardless of whether or not the internal winning combination is won, the displayable symbol combination (displayable combination) is stored in the display combination storage area based on the stopped symbol.

In the present embodiment, the information of the symbol code storage area (the symbol code and the corresponding displayable combination) is updated for each reel to be stopped. At this time, the displayable winning combination may be acquired from the data that defines the correspondence between the stopped reel symbol and the corresponding displayable winning combination, or the stopped reel symbol. And the symbol combination table (see FIGS. 16 to 19) may be collated and acquired. When the former method is used, the correspondence between the symbol and the displayable combination changes for each reel.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a pull-in priority data acquisition process (S487). In this process, the main CPU 93 gives priority to the combination in which the bit is "1" in the display combination storage area (see FIG. 99) and the bit is "1" in the internal winning combination storage area. Refer to the ranking table (not shown) to acquire the pull-in priority data.

The attraction priority table is a table that defines the correspondence between the attraction priority data for each storage area type and the predetermined priority in each attraction priority table number. The pull-in priority table is used to search for a more appropriate number of slip pieces in addition to the number of slip pieces obtained based on the stop table. The priority order is data that defines the order in which the symbols are preferentially stopped and displayed (pulled in) among the types of symbol combinations related to winning. Normally, the order of priority is set in the order of replay, small win, and bonus from the highest.

In addition, in the case of a symbol position that would result in an erroneous winning when stopped, "prohibition of use (000H)" is acquired as the attraction priority data in S487. Further, if the symbol position is not internally won but does not result in an erroneous winning even if it is stopped, "stop possible (001H)" is acquired as the pull-in priority data in S487.

Next, the main CPU 93 stores the acquired attraction priority data in the attraction priority data storage area (not shown) corresponding to the search target reel (S488). At this time, the attraction priority data is stored in the attraction priority data storage area so that the value of each priority and the bit of the storage area correspond to each other.

The pull-in priority data storage area is provided with a priority data storage area for each type of reel. In each attraction priority data storage area, the attraction priority data determined according to each symbol position "0" to "19" of the corresponding reel is stored. In the present embodiment, by referring to this attraction priority data storage area, it is searched whether or not a more appropriate number of sliding pieces exists in addition to the number of sliding pieces determined based on the stop table.

Further, the content of the priority pull-in data stored in the pull-in priority data storage area differs depending on the type of the pull-in priority table number in the pull-in priority table referred to when determining the pull-in priority data. Further, the pull-in priority data indicates that the larger the value, the higher the priority.

By referring to the pull-in priority data, it is possible to relatively evaluate the priority among the symbols arranged on the peripheral surface of the reel. That is, the symbol whose highest value is determined as the attraction priority data is the symbol having the highest priority. Therefore, it can be said that the pull-in priority data indicates the order between the symbols arranged on the peripheral surface of the reel. If there are a plurality of symbols having the same value of the pull-in priority data, one symbol is determined according to the priority order defined by the priority order table.

Next, the main CPU 93 adds "1" to the position data of the search symbol and subtracts "1" from the number of symbol checks (S489). Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the number of symbol checks is "0" (S490).

In S490, when the main CPU 93 determines that the number of symbol checks is not "0" (when the determination in S490 is NO), the main CPU 93 returns the process to S485 and repeats the processes after S485. On the other hand, in S490, when the main CPU 93 determines that the number of symbol checks is "0" (when the determination in S490 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the search has been performed for the number of searches (S491).

When it is determined in S491 that the main CPU 93 has not searched for the number of searches (when the determination in S491 is NO), the main CPU 93 returns the process to S482 and repeats the processes after S482. On the other hand, in S491, when it is determined that the main CPU 93 has searched for the number of searches (when the determination in S491 is YES), the main CPU 93 ends the attraction priority storage process and performs the process in S13 of the main flow (see FIG. 203). Move to.

[Pull-in priority table selection process]
Next, with reference to FIG. 238, the attraction priority table selection process performed in S483 in the flowchart of the attraction priority storage process (see FIG. 237) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the pull-in priority table selection data is set (S501).

In S501, when the main CPU 93 determines that the attraction priority table selection data is set (when the determination in S501 is YES), the main CPU 93 has a pressing order storage area (see FIG. 103) and an operation stop button storage area. (See FIG. 102), the attraction priority table number corresponding to the attraction priority table selection data is set from the attraction priority table selection table (not shown) (S502). Then, after the processing of S502, the main CPU 93 ends the attraction priority table selection process, and shifts the process to S484 of the attraction priority storage process (see FIG. 237).

The attraction priority table selection table defines the correspondence between the combination of the attraction priority selection number and the pressing order of the stop button and the attraction priority table number in each combination. Further, the attraction priority table number is data for acquiring information regarding the priority of the display combination defined in the above-mentioned attraction priority table (not shown).

On the other hand, in S501, when the main CPU 93 determines that the attraction priority table selection data is not set (when the determination in S501 is NO), the main CPU 93 sets the attraction priority table corresponding to the attraction priority table number. Set (S503). Then, after the processing of S503, the main CPU 93 ends the attraction priority table selection process, and shifts the process to S484 of the attraction priority storage process (see FIG. 237).

[Design code storage process]
Next, with reference to FIG. 239, the symbol code storage process performed in S485 in the flowchart of the attraction priority storage process (see FIG. 237) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 sets the valid line data (S511). In the present embodiment, the effective line is provided with one line (cross-up line) as described above. Next, the main CPU 93 sets the check symbol position data of the search target reel based on the search symbol position and the effective line data (S512). For example, when the search target reel is the left reel 3L, since it is desired to acquire the information of the lower stage of the search target reel, the check symbol position data indicating the lower stage is set.

Next, the main CPU 93 acquires the symbol code of the check symbol position data (S513). Then, the main CPU 93 stores the acquired symbol code in the symbol code storage area, ends the symbol code storage process, and shifts the process to S486 of the pull-in priority storage process (see FIG. 237).

[Reel stop control process]
Next, the reel stop control process performed in S13 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described with reference to FIG. 240.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not a valid stop button has been pressed (S521). In S521, when the main CPU 93 determines that the valid stop button has not been pressed (when the determination in S521 is NO), the main CPU 93 repeats the process of S521, and the valid stop button pressing operation is executed. Wait until.

On the other hand, in S521, when the main CPU 93 determines that a valid stop button has been pressed (when the determination in S521 is YES), the main CPU 93 has a pressing order storage area (see FIG. 103) and an operation stop button storage area (FIG. 103). 102) is updated (S522). Next, the main CPU 93 subtracts "1" from the value of the stop button non-operation counter (S523).

Next, the main CPU 93 determines the search target reel from the operation stop button (S524). Then, the main CPU 93 stores the stop start position in the main RAM 95 based on the symbol counter (S525).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a sliding piece number determination process (S526). In this process, the main CPU 93 acquires the number of slip pieces determination data based on the type of the stop button at the time of the first stop, various stop tables, and the like.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs the priority pull-in control process (S527). In this process, the pull-in priority data is compared according to each symbol position in the range of the maximum number of sliding pieces "4" ("1" in one or more reels in MB) from the stop start position, which is the most appropriate. The number of sliding pieces is determined. The details of the priority pull-in control process will be described later with reference to FIG. 241 described later.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a reel stop command generation and storage process (S528). In this process, the main CPU 93 generates data for a reel stop command to be transmitted to the sub control circuit 101, and stores the command data in a communication data storage area provided in the main RAM 95. The reel stop command stored in the communication data storage area is transmitted from the main control circuit 91 to the sub control circuit 101 by the communication data transmission process in the interrupt process described later with reference to FIG. 252. The reel stop command transmitted in this process includes information such as the type of reel to be stopped, the number of slip pieces thereof, and the ON edge / OFF edge of the stop switch.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines the scheduled stop position based on the stop start position and the number of sliding pieces determination data acquired in S526, and stores the determined stop schedule position in the main RAM 95 (S529). In this process, the main CPU 93 adds the number of sliding pieces to the stop start position, and sets the result as the scheduled stop position.

Next, the main CPU 93 sets the scheduled stop position determined in S529 as the search symbol position (S530). Next, the main CPU 93 performs the symbol code acquisition process described with reference to FIG. 239 (S531). After that, the main CPU 93 updates the symbol code storage area (see FIG. 104) using the acquired symbol code (S532).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a control change process (S533). Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the stop button non-operation counter is "0" (S534). When the main CPU 93 determines in S534 that the inactive counter is not "0" (when the determination in S534 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the attraction priority storage process described with reference to FIG. 237 (S535). ). After that, the main CPU 93 returns the process to S521 and repeats the processes after S521.

On the other hand, in S534, when the main CPU 93 determines that the inactive counter is "0" (when the determination in S534 is YES), the main CPU 93 ends the reel stop control process and performs the process in the main flow (FIG. 203). (See), move to S14.

[Priority pull-in control processing]
Next, the priority pull-in control process performed in S527 in the flowchart of the reel stop control process (see FIG. 240) will be described with reference to FIG. 241.

First, the main CPU 93 sets the pull-in priority data storage area corresponding to the operation stop button (S541). Next, the main CPU 93 acquires the data of the stop start position (S542).

Next, the main CPU 93 sets a priority table corresponding to the slip piece number determination data (S543).

The priority order table includes data for determining the number of sliding pieces obtained based on the stop table and a range of numerical values predetermined as the number of sliding pieces (when the maximum number of sliding pieces is 4, "0" to "4". ”) Priority is specified in the order of application (hereinafter referred to as“ priority order ”). That is, in the priority order table, the order of the number of slip pieces to be preferentially applied is determined for each slip piece number determination data. In this embodiment, each numerical value is searched (checked) sequentially from the lower priority order "5" in the priority order table, and the numerical value corresponding to the priority order "1" is preferentially applied as the number of slip pieces. To do so. Then, in the processing of S543, for example, when the number of sliding pieces determination data is "4", the priority data defined in the address in the priority order table corresponding to the number of sliding pieces determination data "4" is obtained. It is set.

After the processing of S543, the main CPU 93 sets the initial value of the priority order and the number of checks (S544). Specifically, the main CPU 93 sets "1" as the initial value of the priority order. When the MB is not operating, the main CPU 93 sets "5" as the number of checks. By this process, the priority order is checked (searched) 5 times in the range of 0 to 4 frames. When the maximum number of sliding frames is set to "1" during MB operation, the main CPU 93 sets "2" as the number of checks. By this process, the priority order is checked (searched) twice in the range of 0 to 1 frame. Next, the main CPU 93 sets the number of sliding pieces determination data as the number of sliding pieces (S545).

Next, the main CPU 93 extracts the stop search position based on the stop start position and the priority order (S546). Next, the main CPU 93 acquires the pull-in priority data of the stop search position (S547).

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the attraction priority data acquired in S547 is equal to or greater than the value of the attraction priority data acquired earlier (S548). In S548, when the main CPU 93 determines that the attraction priority data acquired in S547 is not equal to or higher than the attraction priority data acquired earlier (when the determination in S548 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S550 described later. ..

On the other hand, in S548, when the main CPU 93 determines that the attraction priority data acquired in S547 is equal to or greater than the attraction priority data acquired earlier (when the determination in S548 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines the number of slip pieces. Update (S549).

After the processing of S549 or when the determination in S548 is NO, the main CPU 93 subtracts 1 from the value in the priority order and the number of checks (S550).

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the number of checks is "0" (S551). When the main CPU 93 determines in S551 that the number of checks is not "0" (when the determination in S551 is NO), the main CPU 93 returns the process to S546 and repeats the processes after S546.

On the other hand, in S551, when the main CPU 93 determines that the number of checks is "0" (when the determination in S551 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the finally updated number of sliding pieces (S552). Then, after the processing of S552, the main CPU 93 ends the priority pull-in control processing, and shifts the processing to S528 of the reel stop control processing (see FIG. 240).

In S562, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is not the negative BB internal middle state (when the determination in S562 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the lottery process after the third stop, and performs the process in the main flow (FIG. Move to S16 of (see 203).

On the other hand, in S562, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state (when the determination in S562 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs a lottery process after the third stop in CZ (S563). .. In this process, the main CPU 93 executes various lottery processes performed after the third stop in the CZ middle state. The details of the lottery process after the third stop in CZ will be described later with reference to FIG. 243 described later. Then, after the processing of S563, the main CPU 93 ends the lottery processing after the third stop, and shifts the processing to S16 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S561 again, when the main CPU 93 determines in S561 that the ball ejection state is not in the CZ middle state (when the ball ejection state is NO determination), the main CPU 93 waits for the ball ejection state to fall in ART. It is determined whether or not it is in a state (S564). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the ball ejection state flag storage area (see FIG. 101) to determine whether or not the ball ejection state is the ART fall waiting state.

In S564, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ball ejection state is not the ART fall waiting state (when the determination in S564 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the lottery process after the third stop, and performs the process in the main flow (FIG. 203). (See), move to S16.

On the other hand, in S564, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ball ejection state is the ART fall waiting state (when the determination in S564 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state. (S565).

In S565, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is not the negative BB internal middle state (when the determination in S565 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the lottery process after the third stop, and performs the process in the main flow (FIG. Move to S16 of (see 203).

On the other hand, in S565, when the main CPU 93 determines that the main game state is the negative BB internal medium state (when the determination in S565 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs a lottery process after the third stop while waiting for the ART to fall (when the judgment is YES). S566). In this process, the main CPU 93 executes various lottery processes performed after the third stop in the ART fall waiting state. The details of the lottery process after the third stop while waiting for the ART to fall will be described later with reference to FIG. 244 described later. Then, after the processing of S566, the main CPU 93 ends the lottery processing after the third stop, and shifts the processing to S16 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

[Lottery processing after the third stop during CZ]
Next, with reference to FIG. 243, the third post-stop lottery process in CZ performed in S563 in the flowchart of the third post-stop lottery process (see FIG. 242) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ART non-winning (battle defeat) is confirmed (S571). That is, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the defeat confirmation flag (ART non-winning confirmation flag) is turned on in the current game.

When the main CPU 93 determines in S571 that the ART non-winning is not confirmed (when the determination in S571 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the lottery process after the third stop in CZ and the lottery process after the third stop (FIG. 242) also ends.

On the other hand, when the main CPU 93 determines in S571 that the ART non-winning is confirmed (when the determination in S571 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs the stage lottery process in the normal state of the next cycle (S572). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the stage lottery table (see FIGS. 89A to 89F), and based on the current game situation and set values (settings 1 to 6), the stage (stage A) in the normal state of the next cycle is followed. ~ C or special stage) is determined. Next, the main CPU 93 sets the lottery result (any of stages A to C and the special stage) in the stage of the next cycle (S573).

Next, the main CPU 93 performs an enemy character lottery process for determining an enemy character to play against the main character in the game in the CZ middle state in the next cycle (S574). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the enemy character lottery table (see FIGS. 90 and 91), and based on the current cycle count counter value and set value (settings 1 to 6), the type of enemy character in the next cycle.

Then, after the processing of S575, the main CPU 93 ends the lottery process after the third stop in CZ, and also ends the lottery process after the third stop (see FIG. 242).

[Lottery processing after the 3rd stop while waiting for ART to fall]
Next, with reference to FIG. 244, the lottery process after the third stop while waiting for the ART to fall, which is performed in S566 in the flowchart of the lottery process after the third stop (see FIG. 242), will be described.

On the other hand, in S602, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the periodic game number counter is "0" (when the determination in S602 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the bonus is operating (when the bonus operation is in progress). S603). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the game state flag storage area (see FIG. 100) and determines whether or not the bonus operation is in progress.

When the main CPU 93 determines in S603 that the bonus operation is not in progress (when the determination in S603 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S605 described later. On the other hand, in S603, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus is operating (when the determination in S603 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the current game is the game at the end of the bonus (S604). .. In this process, when medals are paid out in the game, the main CPU 93 sets the total number of medals to be paid out during the bonus period to a predetermined number (305 for BB, 45 for MB). It is determined whether or not it exceeds (whether or not the bonus end number counter is less than "0" in the current game).

In S604, when the main CPU 93 determines that the current game is not the game at the end of the bonus (when the determination in S604 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process and performs the process in the main flow (see FIG. 203). ) Move to S19.

On the other hand, in S604, when the main CPU 93 determines that the current game is the game at the end of the bonus (when S604 determines NO), or when S603 determines NO, the main CPU 93 normally turns off the flag. Is set to, and the CZ introduction flag is set to the on state (S605). By this process, the ball ejection state shifts from the normal state to the state at the time of introducing CZ, and the game of the state at the time of introducing CZ is performed in the next game. Then, after the processing of S605, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control processing, and shifts the processing to S19 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S601 again, when the determination in S601 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ball ejection state is the state at the time of introducing CZ (S606). In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the ball ejection state flag storage area (see FIG. 101) to determine whether or not the ball ejection state is the CZ introduction state.

In S606, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ball ejection state is the state at the time of introducing CZ (when the determination in S606 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the flag at the time of introducing CZ to the off state and turns on the flag during CZ. Set to the state (S607). By this process, the ball ejection state shifts from the CZ introductory state to the CZ in-progress state, and the game in the CZ in-progress state is started from the next game. Then, after the processing of S607, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control processing, and shifts the processing to S19 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

On the other hand, in S606, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ball ejection state is not the CZ introduction state (NO determination in S606), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ball ejection state is in the CZ middle state.

In this process, the main CPU 93 refers to the game state flag storage area (see FIG. 100) to determine whether or not the RT state has shifted to the RT3 state.

When the main CPU 93 determines in S611 that the RT state has not shifted to the RT3 state (when the determination in S611 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process and performs the process in the main flow (FIG. 203). (See), move to S19.

On the other hand, in S611, when the main CPU 93 determines that the RT state has shifted to the RT3 state (when the determination in S611 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the ART preparation flag to the off state, and adds the ART preparation flag and the addition. Set the specialization flag to the on state (S612). By this process, the payout state shifts from the ART preparing state to the additional specialized state, the game in the ART state is started from the next game, and the game in the additional specialized state at the start of ART is started. In addition, in the game in the additional specialized state at the start of ART, the initial number of ART games during the ART game period is determined. Then, the game period (specialization period) and loop rate (continuation rate) of the additional specialization state are the rank of the reward card acquired in the game period of the normal state and the special feature implemented during the ART preparation period. It is decided according to the result of the lottery with the number of cards added. Then, after the processing of S612, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control processing, and shifts the processing to S19 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S610 again, when the main CPU 93 determines in S610 that the ball ejection state is not in the ART preparation state (when the ball ejection state is NO determination), the main CPU 93 is in the ART state. It is determined whether or not it is (S613).

Whether or not it is determined (S615).

In S615, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the special game number counter is not "0" (when the determination in S615 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process and performs the process in the main flow (when the ball ejection state control process is completed). Move to S19 of (see FIG. 203). On the other hand, in S615, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the special game number counter is "0" (when the determination in S615 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the additional specialization flag to the off state (when it is determined that S615 is YES). S616). By this process, the game period of the additional specialized state ends, and the payout state shifts from the additional specialized state to the ART state.

After the processing of S616 or when the determination in S614 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the ART game number counter is "0" (S617).

S618).

When the main CPU 93 determines in S618 that the bonus operation is not in progress (when the determination in S618 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S620 described later. On the other hand, in S618, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus is in operation (when the determination in S618 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not it is the end of the bonus (S619).

When the main CPU 93 determines in S619 that it is not the end of the bonus (when the determination in S619 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process and shifts the process to S19 in the main flow (see FIG. 203). ..

On the other hand, in S619, when the main CPU 93 determines that it is the end of the bonus (when the determination in S619 is YES) or when the determination in S618 is NO, the main CPU 93 sets the ART in-progress flag to the off state. The ART fall waiting flag is set to the ON state (S620). By this process, the ball ejection state shifts from the ART state to the ART fall waiting state, and the game in the ART fall waiting state is started from the next game. Then, after the processing of S620, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control processing, and shifts the processing to S19 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S613 again, when the determination in S613 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the RT state has shifted to the RT1 state (S621).

In S621, when the main CPU 93 determines that the RT state has not shifted to the RT1 state (when the determination in S621 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process and performs the process in the main flow (FIG. 203). (See), move to S19.

On the other hand, in S621, when the main CPU 93 determines that the RT state has shifted to the RT1 state (when the determination in S621 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the ART fall waiting flag to the off state and sets the normal flag to the on state. Set (S622). By this process, the ball ejection state shifts from the ART fall waiting state to the normal state, and the game in the normal state of the first cycle is started from the next game.

Next, the main CPU 93 initializes the rank of each card (S623). Specifically, the main CPU 93 sets each rank of the offensive card, the defensive card, and the reward card to "0" (rareity "R"). The present invention is not limited to this, and the initial value of each card rank is determined to be a predetermined rank by lottery from a plurality of types of ranks (for example, "0", "1", "2", etc.). It may be. Then, after the processing of S623, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control processing, and shifts the processing to S19 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

[Ball output state control process at the end of CZ]
Next, with reference to FIG. 248, the ball ejection state control process at the end of CZ performed in S609 in the flowchart of the ball ejection state control process (see FIGS. 246 and 247) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ART winning has been confirmed (S631). In this process, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ART winning has been confirmed based on the on / off state of the winning confirmation flag, and if the winning confirmation flag is on, it is determined that the ART winning has been confirmed. To do.

In S631, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ART winning has been confirmed (when the determination in S631 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the CZ middle flag to the off state and sets the ART preparation flag to the on state (when the ART winning flag is determined to be YES). S632). By this process, the ball ejection state shifts from the CZ in-progress state to the ART-preparing state, and the game in the ART-preparing state is started from the next game.

Next, the main CPU 93 sets the value of the special game number counter and the special final game loop rate based on the card rank of the reward card acquired by the time of introducing CZ (S633). For example, if the card rank of the reward card acquired by the time of introduction of CZ is "3", "7" is set in the value of the special game number counter, and the special final game loop rate is 50. % Is set.

Next, the main CPU 93 sets the value of the cycle count counter to "1" (S634). Then, after the processing of S634, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process at the end of CZ, and also terminates the ball ejection state control process (see FIGS. 246 and 247).

On the other hand, in S631, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ART winning has not been determined (when the determination in S631 is NO), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ART non-winning has been determined (S635). In this process, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ART non-winning has been confirmed based on the on / off state of the defeat confirmation flag, and if the defeat confirmation flag is on, the ART non-winning has been confirmed. Is determined.

In S635, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ART non-winning has not been determined (when the determination in S635 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process at the end of CZ and also ejects the ball ejection state control process. (See FIGS. 246 and 247) also ends.

On the other hand, in S635, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ART non-winning has been confirmed (when the determination in S635 is YES), the main CPU 93 turns off the CZ middle flag in the ball ejection state flag storage area (see FIG. 101). Set to the state and set the normal flag to the on state (S636). By this process, the ball ejection state shifts from the CZ middle state to the normal state, and the game in the normal state of the next cycle is started in the next game.

Next, the main CPU 93 adds "1" to the value of the cycle count counter (S637). Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the cycle count counter is larger than "5" (S638).

In S638, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the cycle count counter is not larger than "5" (when the determination in S638 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S640 described later. On the other hand, in S638, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the cycle count counter is larger than "5" (when the determination in S638 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the value of the cycle count counter to "1" (1). S639).

After the processing of S639, or when the determination in S638 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the win rewrite flag is in the ON state (S640).

In S640, when the main CPU 93 determines that the win rewrite flag is not in the ON state (when the determination in S640 is NO), the main CPU 93 initializes the rank of each card (S641). Specifically, the main CPU 93 sets each rank of the offensive card, the defensive card, and the reward card to "0" (rareity "R"). The present invention is not limited to this, and the initial value of each card rank is determined to be a predetermined rank by lottery from a plurality of types of ranks (for example, "0", "1", "2", etc.). It may be. Then, after the processing of S641, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process at the end of CZ, and also terminates the ball ejection state control process (see FIGS. 246 and 247).

On the other hand, in S640, when the main CPU 93 determines that the win rewrite flag is on (when the determination in S640 is YES), the main CPU 93 sets the normal flag to the off state and turns the ART preparing flag on. (S642). By this process, the non-winning confirmation of ART is rewritten to the winning confirmation of ART. As a result, the ball ejection state shifts to the ART preparing state, and the game in the ART preparing state is started from the next game.

Next, the main CPU 93 sets the value of the special game number counter and the special final game loop rate based on the card rank of the reward card acquired by the time of introduction of CZ (S643). Next, the main CPU 93 sets the value of the cycle count counter to "1" (S644). Then, after the processing of S644, the main CPU 93 ends the ball ejection state control process at the end of CZ, and also terminates the ball ejection state control process (see FIGS. 246 and 247).

[Bonus end check process]
Next, with reference to FIG. 249, the bonus end check process performed in S21 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the bonus (BB or MB) is in operation with reference to the game state flag storage area (see FIG. 101) (S651). When the main CPU 93 determines in S651 that the bonus is not operating (when the determination in S651 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the bonus end check process and shifts the process to S22 in the main flow (see FIG. 203). ..

On the other hand, in S651, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus is operating (when the determination in S651 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the bonus end number counter is less than "0". (S652).

In S652, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the bonus end number counter is not less than "0" (when the determination in S652 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S661 described later.

On the other hand, in S652, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the bonus end number counter is less than "0" (when the determination in S652 is YES), the main CPU 93 performs the bonus end command generation and storage process (S653). .. In this process, the main CPU 93 generates data of a bonus end command to be transmitted to the sub control circuit 101, and stores the command data in a communication data storage area provided in the main RAM 95. The bonus end command stored in the communication data storage area is transmitted from the main control circuit 91 to the sub control circuit 101 by the communication data transmission process in the interrupt process described later with reference to FIG. 252. The bonus end command includes information indicating that the bonus game has ended.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not it is at the end of BB (S654). In S654, when the main CPU 93 determines that it is not the end of BB (when the determination in S654 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S659 described later. On the other hand, in S654, when the main CPU 93 determines that it is the end of BB (when the determination in S654 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the ball ejection state is in the CZ middle state (S655).

In S655, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ball ejection state is not in the CZ middle state (when the determination in S655 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S657 described later. On the other hand, in S655, when the main CPU 93 determines that the ball ejection state is in the CZ in-progress state (when the S655 is YES determination), the main CPU 93 sets the CZ in-progress flag to the off state and sets the ART preparing flag. Set to the on state (S656). That is, when the BB wins in the CZ middle state, after the BB digestion, the ball ejection state shifts from the CZ middle state to the ART preparing state (when the BB wins in the CZ middle state, the ART transition changes. Determine).

After the processing of S656 or when the determination in S655 is NO, the main CPU 93 sets the lock time (500.59 ms) at the end of the BB corresponding to the game lock performed at the end of the BB in the lock timer (S657). By this process, the game lock at the end of BB is started. The lock timer subtraction process (count process) is performed by the timer update process during the interrupt process of FIG. 252, which will be described later.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the BB end lock time has elapsed (S658).

In S658, when the main CPU 93 determines that the lock time at the end of BB has not elapsed (when the determination in S658 is NO), the main CPU 93 repeats the process of S658, and the lock time at the end of BB elapses. Wait until.

On the other hand, in S658, when the main CPU 93 determines that the lock time for the end of BB has elapsed (when the determination in S658 is YES), or when the determination in S654 is NO, the main CPU 93 performs the processing at the end of the bonus. (S659). In this process, the main CPU 93 clears the bonus end number counter and sets the game state flag corresponding to the operating bonus (BB or MB) to the off state. If the value of the BB bonus end number counter is less than "0", it means that the number of medals paid out exceeds the predetermined number (305) during the BB state, and the MB bonus end number counter If the value is less than "0", it means that the number of medals paid out exceeds a specific number (45) during the MB state.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs an initialization process at the end of the bonus (S660). Then, after the processing of S660, the main CPU 93 ends the bonus end check processing, and shifts the processing to S22 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S652 again, when the determination in S652 is NO, the main CPU 93 updates each value of the winning number counter and the playable number counter (S661). The value of the winning count counter is subtracted by "1" when a small winning combination (a winning combination with a medal payout) is displayed, and the playable count counter value is one game (unit game) regardless of the stop symbol. Is subtracted by "1".

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the value of the winning number counter or the playable number counter is “0” (S662). In S662, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the winning count counter or the value of the playable count counter is not "0" (when the determination in S662 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the bonus end check process. , The process is transferred to S22 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

On the other hand, in S662, when the main CPU 93 determines that the value of the winning count counter or the value of the playable count counter is "0" (when the determination in S662 is YES), the main CPU 93 is the RB or CB. Processing at the end is performed (S663). Specifically, processing such as setting the RB state flag or the CB state flag to the off state, clearing the values of the winning count counter and the game play counter is performed. After that, the main CPU 93 ends the bonus end check process, and shifts the process to S22 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

[Bonus operation check process]
Next, with reference to FIG. 250, the bonus operation check process performed in S22 in the main flow (see FIG. 203) will be described.

First, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the bonus (BB or MB) is in operation (S671). In S671, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus is not operating (when the determination in S671 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S674 described later.

On the other hand, in S671, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus is operating (when the determination in S671 is YES), the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the RB or CB is operating (S672). When the main CPU 93 determines in S672 that the RB or CB is operating (when the determination in S672 is YES), the main CPU 93 ends the bonus operation check process and performs the process in the main flow (see FIG. 203). Move to S2.

On the other hand, in S672, when the main CPU 93 determines that the RB or CB is not operating (when the determination in S672 is NO), the main CPU 93 of the RB or CB is based on the bonus operating table (see FIG. 20). Perform on-time processing (S673). In this process, the main CPU 93 appropriately sets a value corresponding to the bonus type in the winning count counter and the playable count counter with reference to the bonus operating time table (see FIG. 20). Then, after the processing of S673, the main CPU 93 ends the bonus operation check processing, and shifts the processing to S2 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S671 again, when the determination in S671 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the bonus game has been won (S674). In the present embodiment, when the symbol combination (see FIG. 16) related to the BB combination or the MB combination is stopped and displayed on the effective line, the bonus game is won. In S674, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus game is not won (when the determination in S674 is NO), the main CPU 93 performs the process of S679 described later.

On the other hand, in S674, when the main CPU 93 determines that the bonus game has been won (when the determination in S674 is YES), the main CPU 93 selects the winning bonus game based on the bonus operating table (see FIG. 20). The corresponding bonus operation time processing is performed (S675). In this process, the main CPU 93 sets "1" to the corresponding bit in the game state flag storage area (see FIG. 100) with reference to the bonus operation time table (see FIG. 20), and sets the bonus end number counter. Set the numerical value to a predetermined value (“305” at the time of BB winning, “45” at the time of MB winning). Further, in this process, the RB operating process described in S673 above is also performed.

Next, the main CPU 93 clears the value of the carry-over combination storage area (S676). Next, the main CPU 93 performs a bonus start command generation / storage process (S677). In this process, the main CPU 93 generates data of a bonus start command to be transmitted to the sub control circuit 101, and stores the command data in a communication data storage area provided in the main RAM 95. The bonus start command stored in the communication data storage area is transmitted from the main control circuit 91 to the sub control circuit 101 by the communication data transmission process in the interrupt process described later with reference to FIG. 252. The bonus start command includes information indicating that the bonus game has started.

Next, the main CPU 93 performs a lock process at the start of BB (S678). The details of the lock process at the start of BB will be described later with reference to FIG. 251 described later. Then, after the processing of S678, the main CPU 93 ends the bonus operation check processing, and shifts the processing to S2 of the main flow (see FIG. 203).

Here, returning to the process of S674 again, when the determination in S674 is NO, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the winning combination related to the replay is a prize (S679). In S679, when the main CPU 93 determines that the winning combination related to the replay is not a prize (when the determination in S679 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the bonus operation check process and performs the process in the main flow (see FIG. 203). Move to S2.

On the other hand, in S679, when the main CPU 93 determines that the winning combination related to the replay is a prize (when the determination in S679 is YES), the main CPU 93 requests the automatic insertion of medals (S680). That is, the main CPU 93 copies the input number counter to the automatic input number counter.

By this process, the game lock at the time of NBB winning is started. The lock timer subtraction process (count process) is performed by the timer update process during the interrupt process of FIG. 252, which will be described later.

Next, the main CPU 93 determines whether or not the NBB start lock time has elapsed (S693). In S693, when the main CPU 93 determines that the lock time for starting NBB has not elapsed (when the determination in S693 is NO), the main CPU 93 repeats the process of S693, and the lock timer value becomes "0". Wait until it becomes.

On the other hand, in S693, when the main CPU 93 determines that the lock time for starting NBB has elapsed (when S693 determines YES), or when S691 determines NO, the main CPU 93 starts SBB (BB3). It is determined whether or not it is (S694). When the main CPU 93 determines in S694 that it is not the start of the SBB (when the determination in S694 is NO), the main CPU 93 ends the lock process at the start of the BB and also ends the bonus operation check process (see FIG. 250). ..

On the other hand, in S694, when the main CPU 93 determines that it is the start of SBB (when the determination in S694 is YES), the main CPU 93 has a lock time for starting SBB (770.86 ms) corresponding to the game lock performed at the time of winning the SBB. ) Is set in the lock timer (S695).

In this process, the main CPU 93 starts rotating the left reel 3L, the middle reel 3C, and the right reel 3R when all the main reels are requested to start rotating, and then each main reel rotates at a constant speed. In addition, three stepping motors are driven and controlled. When the number of sliding pieces is determined, the main CPU 93 updates the symbol counter of the corresponding main reel by the number of sliding pieces. Then, the main CPU 93 waits for the updated symbol counter to match the value corresponding to the scheduled stop position (the symbol at the scheduled stop position reaches the area on the effective line of the reel display window 4), and then corresponds to the corresponding value. The corresponding stepping motor is driven and controlled so that the rotation of the main reel is decelerated and stopped. Further, in the present embodiment, in the processing of S704, in addition to the normal acceleration processing, constant speed processing and stop processing of the main reel, when the game lock is set, the main CPU 93 is set to the type of the game lock.

On the other hand, in S883, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the BB internal medium state (when the determination in S883 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the sub game state is the BB state (when the sub game state is the BB state or not). S885).

In S885, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the BB state (when the determination in S885 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the normal during BB effect processing (S885). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to, for example, the effect lottery table during the normal BB (see, for example, FIGS. 113 and 114), and is in a normal state based on the sub lottery flag (internal winning combination), the game situation, and the like. The effect pattern number of the effect to be executed at the start of the game during BB operation is determined, and the effect data table corresponding to the effect pattern number is specified.

(S887). In this process, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a game at the time of card rank up by referring to the parameters related to the presence or absence of card rank up included in the star command.

In S887, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is a game at the time of card rank up (when the determination in S887 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the card rank up effect processing (S888). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to, for example, the effect lottery table (not shown) at the time of card rank up during normal operation, and the card rank up is determined based on the sub lottery flag (internal winning combination), the game situation, and the like. The effect pattern number of the effect to be executed at the start of the game in the normal state is determined, and the effect data table corresponding to the effect pattern number is specified. Although not shown, the configuration of the effect data table specified in this process is the same as the configuration of the effect data table described with reference to FIGS. 109 and 110. By this process, among the three cards displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11, the display mode (card pattern, etc.) of the card for which the card rank up has been determined is the display of the card (acquired card) after the rank up. Updated to mode.

Next, the sub CPU 102 subtracts 1 from the value of the sub cycle counter (S889). In the present embodiment, in the normal state, when the game in the BB and in the BB is executed at the time of winning the BB, the subtraction process of the sub-period counter is not performed. Then, after the processing of S889, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S892 described later.

On the other hand, in S897, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the game at the time of card rank up (when the determination in S897 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the normal time effect processing (S890). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to, for example, the normal middle effect lottery table (see, for example, FIG. 108), and is in the normal state (at the time of BB win, inside) based on the sub lottery flag (internal winning combination), the game situation, and the like. , BB and in a normal state other than when the card is ranked up), the effect pattern number of the effect to be executed at the start of the game is determined, and the effect data table corresponding to the effect pattern number is specified. Next, the sub CPU 102 subtracts 1 from the value of the sub cycle counter (S891).

Then, if the effect is specified in the effect parameter items "GrID" and "GrNo", the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect table can be directly specified.

In S892, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect table can be directly specified (when the determination in S892 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S894 described later. On the other hand, in S892, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect table cannot be directly specified (when the determination in S892 is NO), the sub CPU 102 is set to the effect pattern number specified in the set effect data table. With reference to the values of the associated effect parameter items "inc" and "table", another effect data table corresponding to the values is registered (set) (S893).

After the processing of S893, or when the determination in S892 is YES, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table and sets the effect parameter item "ST" associated with the effect pattern number to a value of "1" or more. Is determined (S894).

On the other hand, in S894, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "ST" has a value of "1" or more (when the determination in S894 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the stage background transition lottery process. Do (S895). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the stage background transition lottery table (see FIGS. 127A and 127B) and sets the stage based on the value of "ST", the current stage background type and the lottery state (low or high accuracy). The presence or absence of background transition (winning / non-winning) is determined, and the stage background type (day, evening or night) of the transition destination is determined. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the stage background data corresponding to the lottery result (stage background of the migration destination) of S895 (S896).

After the processing of S896, or when the determination in S894 is NO, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table, and "1" is defined in the effect parameter item "MOE" associated with the effect pattern number. It is determined whether or not it is (S897).

In S897, when the sub CPU 102 determines that "1" is not specified in the effect parameter item "MOE" (when the determination in S897 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S902 described later. On the other hand, in S897, when the sub CPU 102 determines that "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "MOE" (when the determination in S897 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the cut-in lottery execution condition (lottery condition). ) Is satisfied or not (S898).

In the present embodiment, the execution conditions of the cut-in lottery are determined. Specifically, for example, "in the normal state and when the BB is not won", "in the normal state and when the BB is won", "in the ART state and when the game number precursor scenario is drawn", and "in the ART state". In addition, the execution conditions of the cut-in lottery are "at the time of winning the special omen scenario lottery" and "when the game state on the main side is in the state of preparing for ART and at the time of winning the BB". Then, in the present embodiment, even if "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "MOE", the cut-in lottery is not performed unless the execution condition of the cut-in lottery is satisfied.

In S898, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the cut-in lottery is not satisfied (when the determination in S898 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S902 described later. On the other hand, in S898, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the cut-in lottery is satisfied (when the determination in S898 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the cut-in lottery process (S899). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the cut-in lottery table (see FIGS. 131A and 131B) and cuts based on the game status (execution condition of the corresponding cut-in lottery) and the sub-lottery flag B (internal winning combination). The presence or absence of occurrence of in-effect (winning / non-winning) is determined, and the type of cut-in effect (cut-in A to H) is determined.

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the cut-in lottery has been won (S900). In S900, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the cut-in lottery has not been won (when the determination in S900 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S902 described later. On the other hand, in S900, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the cut-in lottery has been won (when the determination in S900 is YES), the sub CPU 102 has the cut-in effect data corresponding to the lottery result (type of cut-in effect) in S899. Is set (S901). It should be noted that such additional effect data is set in a layer different from other effect data such as effect data for stage effect.

After the processing of S901, or when S897, S898 or S900 is NO determination, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table and sets the effect parameter item "LED" associated with the effect pattern number to "1". It is determined whether or not a value equal to or greater than that is specified (S902).

In S902, when the sub CPU 102 determines that a value of "1" or more is not specified for the effect parameter item "LED" (when the determination in S902 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S907 described later. On the other hand, in S902, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "LED" has a value of "1" or more (when the determination in S902 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery. It is determined whether or not (lottery condition) is satisfied (S903).

In this embodiment, the execution conditions for the LED parameter lottery are determined. Specifically, for example, "BB winning game", "card acquisition lottery winning", "battle winning" and the like are the execution conditions of the LED parameter lottery. In the present embodiment, even if a value of "1" or more is specified for the effect parameter item "LED", the LED parameter lottery is not performed unless the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery is satisfied.

In S903, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery is not satisfied (when the determination in S903 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S907 described later. On the other hand, in S903, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery is satisfied (when the determination in S903 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the LED parameter lottery process (S904). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the LED parameter lottery table (see, for example, FIG. 133), and based on the game status (execution condition of the corresponding LED parameter lottery) and the sub lottery flag A (internal winning combination), the LED The presence or absence (winning / non-winning) of the lighting effect (super hot lighting effect) is determined, and the type of LED lighting effect is determined.

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the LED parameter lottery has been won (S905). In S905, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the LED parameter lottery has not been won (when the determination in S905 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S907 described later. On the other hand, in S905, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the LED parameter lottery has been won (when the determination in S905 is YES), the sub CPU 102 outputs the LED effect data corresponding to the lottery result (type of LED lighting effect) of S907. Set (S906).

After the processing of S906, or when S902, S903 or S905 is NO determination, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table and sets "0" in the effect parameter item "UI" associated with the effect pattern number. It is determined whether or not a value larger than "is specified" (S907).

In S907, when the sub CPU 102 determines that a value larger than "0" is not specified in the effect parameter item "UI" (when the determination in S907 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S909 described later. On the other hand, in S907, when the sub CPU 102 determines that a value larger than "0" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI" (when the determination in S907 is YES), the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "UI". The UI display effect data corresponding to the value of is set (S908). It should be noted that such UI display effect data is set in a layer different from other effect data such as the effect data for stage effect and the cut-in effect data described above.

After the processing of S908, or when the determination of S907 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the setting change occurrence flag is in the ON state (S909). In S909, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the setting change occurrence flag is not in the ON state (when the determination in S909 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the normal game and the processing at the time of receiving the start command (FIG. 259) also ends.

On the other hand, in S909, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the setting change occurrence flag is in the ON state (when the determination in S909 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the game start processing at the time of setting change (S910). In this process, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data to be executed in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or after recovering from the power failure for 2 hours or more. The details of the game start processing at the time of setting change will be described later with reference to FIG. 262 described later. Then, after the processing of S910, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the normal game, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the start command (see FIG. 259).

[Processing at the start of the game when changing settings]
Next, with reference to FIG. 262, the process at the start of the game at the time of setting change performed in S910 in the flowchart of the process at the start of the normal game (see FIGS. 260 and 261) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a game at the time of card rank up (S921). In S921, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the game at the time of card rank up (when the determination in S921 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S926 described later.

On the other hand, in S921, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is a game at the time of card rank up (when the determination in S921 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs a card display lottery process (S922). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the card promotion display effect lottery table (see FIG. 136), and based on the sub lottery flag A (internal winning combination), whether or not the acquired card display effect is generated (winning /). Determine non-winning). Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the card display lottery has been won (S923).

In S923, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the card display lottery has been won (when the determination in S923 is YES), the sub CPU 102 maintains the effect data at the time of card rank up set in S888 (S924). That is, even in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, if the card rank is increased and the card display lottery is won, the card display effect after the rank increase is performed. Be told. Then, after the processing of S924, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S926 described later.

On the other hand, in S923, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the card display lottery has not been won (when the determination in S923 is NO), the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data before the card rank up (S925). That is, even if the card rank is increased in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, if the card display lottery is not won, the card display effect after the rank increase is performed. I can't. Therefore, even if "0" is selected as the initial rank of the card in the normal state of the first cycle after the setting is changed or the power is restored after 2 hours of power interruption, and then the card rank is increased, the card is displayed. If the lottery is not won, the liquid crystal display device 11 continues the card display effect of the card rank "0".

After the processing of S924 or S925, or when the determination in S921 is NO, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data for displaying the number of remaining cycle games as "?" (S926). Then, after the processing of S926, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game when the setting is changed, and also ends the processing at the start of the normal game (see FIGS. 260 and 261).

[Processing at the start of the game during ART]
Next, with reference to FIGS. 263 and 264, the process at the start of the game during ART performed in S873 in the flowchart of the process at the time of receiving the start command (see FIG. 259) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the additional notification effect of ART was performed in the previous game (S931). In this process, for example, when the previous game satisfies the following conditions (1) to (5), the sub CPU 102 determines that the additional notification effect has been performed in the previous game.
(1) A game in which the production of "announcement (G)" is selected in the precursory scenario (2) A game of "development 1G" of the next game of the game in which the production of "announcement (departure 1_G)" is selected in the precursory scenario (3) The game of "development 2G" of the game in which the production of "announcement (departure 2_G)" was selected in the precursor scenario (4) The number of games release flag was set to the on state during the specialized production. Game (5) A game in which the number of games release flag is set to the ON state during BB The number of games release flag is a determination flag indicating whether or not to execute an additional notification effect in the game or a subsequent game. , Is provided in the sub RAM 103.

In S931, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the additional notification effect has not been performed in the previous game (when the determination in S931 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S935 described later.

On the other hand, in S931, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the additional notification effect has been performed in the previous game (when the determination in S931 is YES), the sub CPU 102 adds the number of notification games to the value of the display ART counter (S932). ). The display ART counter is a counter for counting the number of remaining ART games displayed on the liquid crystal display device 11, and is provided in the sub RAM 103. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the game number release flag to the off state (S933). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets (clears 0) the value of the notification game number counter to "0" (S934).

After the processing of S934 or when the determination in S931 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the sub-game state is the specialized effect state (S935). In this process, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a game under special production based on the on / off state of the special production sub flag. The special effect sub-flag is one of the sub-management flags, and is set to the on state when the sub-game state is the special effect state. Further, although not shown, in the present embodiment, separate specialized effect sub-flags (specialized effect A sub-flag to specialized effect H sub-flag) are provided for each type of specialized zone.

In S935, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub-game state is the special effect state (YES in S935), the sub CPU 102 performs the game start processing during the special effect (S936). In this process, the sub CPU 102 mainly registers the effect data corresponding to the effect pattern to be executed at the start of the game during the specialized effect. The details of the processing at the start of the game during the specialized production will be described later with reference to FIG. 265 described later. Then, after the processing of S936, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S943 described later.

On the other hand, in S935, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the specialized effect state (NO determination in S935), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the sub game state is the BB state (when the sub game state is the BB state). S937).

In S937, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the BB state (when the determination in S937 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the process at the start of the game during BB (S938). In this process, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect pattern number of the effect to be executed at the start of the game during the BB, which is executed in the middle of the game period in the ART state. The details of the processing at the start of the game during BB will be described later with reference to FIG. 267 described later. Then, after the processing of S938, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S943 described later.

On the other hand, in S937, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the BB state (when the determination in S937 is NO), the sub CPU 102 subtracts 1 from the value of the display ART counter (S939). In the pachislot machine 1 of the present embodiment, as described above, the value of the display ART counter does not necessarily match the value of the ART game number counter included in the start command, that is, the number of remaining ART games actually remaining. , The value of the display ART counter is equal to or less than the value of the ART game number counter. The value of the ART game number counter managed on the main side is set in the internal ART counter on the sub side.

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a BB winning game (S940).

In S940, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the BB winning game (when the determination in S940 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the BB winning game start processing (S941). In this process, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect pattern number of the effect to be executed at the start of the game won by the BB in the ART state. The details of the processing at the start of the game at the time of winning the BB will be described later with reference to FIGS. 268 and 269 described later. Then, after the processing of S941, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S943 described later.

On the other hand, in S940, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the BB winning game (when the determination in S940 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the ART normal middle game start processing (S942). In this process, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect pattern number of the effect to be executed at the start of the game in the ART normal state. The details of the ART normal game start processing will be described later with reference to FIGS. 270 to 272, which will be described later.

After the processing of S936, S938, S941 or S942, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the effect table can be directly specified by the effect pattern number set by the process of S936, S938, S941 or S942 (S943). Specifically, the sub CPU 102 refers to the effect data table set by the processing of S936, S938, S941 or S942, and produces the effect in the effect parameter items "GrID" and "GrNo" associated with the effect pattern number. Determines if is specified. Then, when the effect is specified in the effect parameter items "GrID" and "GrNo", the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect table can be directly specified.

In S943, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect table can be directly specified (when the determination in S943 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S945 described later. On the other hand, in S943, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect table cannot be directly specified (when the determination in S943 is NO), the sub CPU 102 is set to the effect pattern number specified in the set effect data table. Based on the values of the associated effect parameter items "inc" and "table", another effect data table corresponding to the values is registered (set) (S944).

After the processing of S944, or when the determination in S943 is YES, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table, and whether the effect parameter item "ST" associated with the effect pattern number is "3". Whether or not it is determined (S945).

In S945, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "ST" is not "3" (when the determination in S945 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S948 described later.

On the other hand, in S945, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "ST" is "3" (when the determination in S945 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the ART stage transition lottery process (S946). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the ART middle stage transition lottery table (see FIGS. 128 to 130), and refers to the game status (display ART counter value, characterson flag on / off state), lottery state (low accuracy or). Based on (high accuracy) and the number of difference games (internal ART counter value-display ART counter value), whether or not to shift the ART stage (winning / non-winning) is determined, and the destination ART stage type (ART stage). A to C) are determined. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the stage display data corresponding to the lottery result (ART stage of the migration destination) in S946 (S947).

After the processing of S947, or when the determination in S945 is NO, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table, and "1" is defined in the effect parameter item "MOE" associated with the effect pattern number. It is determined whether or not it is (S948).

In S948, when the sub CPU 102 determines that "1" is not specified in the effect parameter item "MOE" (when the determination in S948 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S953 described later. On the other hand, in S948, when the sub CPU 102 determines that "1" is specified in the effect parameter item "MOE" (when the determination in S948 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the cut-in lottery execution condition (lottery condition). ) Is satisfied or not (S949).

In S949, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the cut-in lottery is not satisfied (when the determination in S949 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S953 described later. On the other hand, in S949, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the cut-in lottery is satisfied (when the determination in S949 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the cut-in lottery process (S950). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the cut-in lottery table (see FIGS. 132A and 132B) and cuts based on the game status (execution condition of the corresponding cut-in lottery) and the sub-lottery flag B (internal winning combination). The presence or absence of occurrence of in-effect (winning / non-winning) is determined, and the type of cut-in effect (cut-in A to H) is determined.

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the cut-in lottery has been won (S951). In S951, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the cut-in lottery has not been won (when the determination in S951 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S953 described later. On the other hand, in S951, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the cut-in lottery has been won (when the determination in S951 is YES), the sub CPU 102 has the cut-in effect data corresponding to the lottery result (type of cut-in effect) in S950. Is set (S952).

After the processing of S952, or when S948, S949 or S951 is NO determination, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table and sets the effect parameter item "LED" associated with the effect pattern number to "1". It is determined whether or not a value equal to or greater than that is specified (S953).

In S953, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of "1" or more is not specified in the effect parameter item "LED" (when the determination in S953 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S958 described later. On the other hand, in S953, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "LED" has a value of "1" or more (when the determination in S953 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery. It is determined whether or not (lottery condition) is satisfied (S954).

In S954, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery is not satisfied (when the determination in S954 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S958 described later. On the other hand, in S954, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the execution condition of the LED parameter lottery is satisfied (when the determination in S954 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the LED parameter lottery process (S955). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the LED parameter lottery table (see FIG. 133), and based on the game situation (execution condition of the corresponding LED parameter lottery) and the sub lottery flag A (internal winning combination), the LED lighting effect. It is determined whether or not (super hot lighting effect) is generated (winning / non-winning), and the type of LED lighting effect is determined.

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the LED parameter lottery has been won (S956). In S956, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the LED parameter lottery has not been won (when the determination in S956 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S958 described later. On the other hand, in S956, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the LED parameter lottery has been won (when the determination in S956 is YES), the sub CPU 102 outputs the LED effect data corresponding to the lottery result (type of LED lighting effect) of S955. Set (S957).

After the processing of S957, or when S953, S954 or S956 is NO determination, the sub CPU 102 refers to the set effect data table and sets "0" in the effect parameter item "UI" associated with the effect pattern number. It is determined whether or not a value larger than "is specified" (S958).

In S958, when the sub CPU 102 determines that a value larger than "0" is not specified in the effect parameter item "UI" (when the determination in S958 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the game start processing during ART. At the same time, the process at the time of receiving the start command (see FIG. 259) is also completed. On the other hand, in S958, when the sub CPU 102 determines that a value larger than "0" is specified in the effect parameter item "UI" (when the determination in S958 is YES), the sub CPU 102 determines that the effect parameter item "UI". The UI display effect data corresponding to the value of is set (S959). Then, after the processing of S959, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during ART, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the start command (see FIG. 259).

[Processing at the start of the game during specialized production]
Next, with reference to FIG. 265, the processing at the start of the specialized production game performed in S936 in the flowchart of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the value of the specialization counter is "1" or more (S961). The specialization counter is a counter for counting the number of remaining games of the specialization effect, and is provided in the sub RAM 103.

In S961, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the specialization counter is not "1" or more (when the determination in S961 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S963 described later. On the other hand, in S961, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the specialization counter is "1" or more (when the determination in S961 is YES), the sub CPU 102 subtracts the value of the specialization counter by "1" (when the determination is YES). S962).

After the processing of S962, or when the determination in S961 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the specialization effect of the specialization zone other than the specialization zone G is in progress (S963). In this process, is the sub CPU 102 producing a special zone other than the special zone G by referring to the type of the special effect sub flag in the ON state (special effect A sub flag to special effect H sub flag)? Determine if not.

In S963, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 is not in the special production of the special zone other than the special zone G (when the determination in S963 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S969 described later.

On the other hand, in S963, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 is in the special production of the special zone other than the special zone G (when the determination in S963 is YES), the sub CPU 102 draws the number of notification games during the special production. Process (S964). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the special zone notification game number lottery table (see, for example, FIGS. 187 to 192), the special zone type (other than the special zone G), and the game status (presence or absence of BB win). , Difference game number) and sub-lottery flag A (internal winning combination), determine whether or not ART additional notification effect is generated (winning / non-winning), and type of number of notification games (10G, 20G, 30G). , 50G, 100G or 300G).

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the lottery for the number of notification games during the special production has been won (S965). In S965, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 has not won the lottery for the number of notification games during the special production (when the determination in S965 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S968 described later.

On the other hand, in S965, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 has won the lottery for the number of notification games during the special production (when the determination in S965 is YES), the sub CPU 102 tells the lottery result (the number of additional notification games). (S966). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the game number release flag to the ON state (S967).

After the processing of S967, or when the determination in S965 is NO, the sub CPU 102 sets the special effect data table corresponding to the effect situation such as the type of the special effect and whether or not the additional notification effect is executed (S968). For example, when the number of additional notification games is set in the notification game number counter and the number of games release flag is set to the ON state, the effect data table for executing the additional notification effect is selected and set in this process. , In other cases, the effect data table for non-execution of the additional notification effect is selected and set. Then, after the processing of S968, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during specialized production, and shifts the processing to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

Here, returning to the process of S963 again, when the determination in S963 is NO (when the special effect of the special zone G is in progress), the sub CPU 102 performs the effect set process in the special zone G (S969). The details of the effect set processing in the special zone G will be described later with reference to FIG. 266 described later. Then, after the processing of S969, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during specialized production, and shifts the processing to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

[Specialized zone G medium production set processing]
Next, with reference to FIG. 266, the special zone G middle effect set process performed in S969 in the flowchart (see FIG. 265) of the special effect in-game start process will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is the fourth game in the special production of the special zone G (S971). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the value of the special zone G counter to determine whether or not the current game is the fourth game during the special production of the special zone G.

The special zone G counter is a counter that counts the digestion games in the special production of the special zone G. Further, although not shown, the sub CPU 102 adds "1" to the value of the special zone G counter each time the game is digested in the special production of the special zone G, and the end production of the special zone G is performed. When executed, "0" is set (cleared to 0) in the value of the special zone G counter.

In S971, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the fourth game in the special production of the special zone G (when the determination in S971 is YES), the sub CPU 102 is the 4 of the special zone G. Set the effect data (end effect data) table for the game eyes (S972). Then, after the processing of S972, the sub CPU 102 ends the special effect zone G middle effect set process, and also ends the special effect in-game start time process (see FIG. 265).

On the other hand, in S971, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the fourth game in the special production of the special zone G (when the determination in S971 is NO), the sub CPU 102 specializes in the current game. It is determined whether or not the game is the third game during the special production of zone G (S973). In S973, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the third game in the special production of the special zone G (when the determination in S973 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S980 described later. ..

On the other hand, in S973, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the third game in the special production of the special zone G (when the determination in S973 is YES), the sub CPU 102 announces an additional three digits. The production lottery process is performed (S974). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the 3rd game announcement game number lottery table in the specialized zone G (see FIGS. 193A to 193C), and the game status (presence or absence of BB winning, on / off state of the character song flag) and difference. Based on the number of games, it is determined whether or not a 3-digit additional notification effect is generated (winning / non-winning) in the 3rd game in the specialized zone G, and the type (100G, 200G or 300G) of the number of notification games (3 digits). ) Is determined.

Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not it has won the three-digit addition notification effect lottery (S975).

In S975, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 has won the three-digit addition notification effect lottery (when the determination in S975 is YES), the sub CPU 102 announces the lottery result (the number of notification games of 100, 200, or 300). Set in the counter (S976). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the game number release flag to the ON state (S977). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets an effect data table for the effect of adding three digits (S978). Then, after the processing of S978, the sub CPU 102 ends the special effect zone G in-effect set process, and also ends the special effect in-game start time process (see FIG. 265).

On the other hand, in S975, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 has not won the three-digit addition notification effect lottery (when the determination in S975 is NO), the sub CPU 102 is the effect for the third game non-winning of the special zone G. A data (end effect data) table is set (S979). Then, after the processing of S979, the sub CPU 102 ends the special effect zone G in-effect set process, and also ends the special effect in-game start time process (see FIG. 265).

Here, returning to the process of S973 again, if S973 is NO-determined, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is the second game during the special production of the special zone G (S980). ).

In S980, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the second game in the special production of the special zone G (when the determination in S980 is YES), the sub CPU 102 is set to 2 in the special zone G. Set the production data table for the game (S981). Then, after the processing of S981, the sub CPU 102 ends the special effect zone G in-effect set process, and also ends the special effect in-game start time process (see FIG. 265).

On the other hand, in S980, when it is determined that the current game is not the second game in the special production of the special zone G (when the determination in S980 is NO), the sub CPU 102 is for the first game of the special zone G. Set the production data table of (S982). Then, after the processing of S982, the sub CPU 102 ends the special effect zone G in-effect set process, and also ends the special effect in-game start time process (see FIG. 265).

[Processing at the start of the game during BB]
Next, with reference to FIG. 267, the process at the start of the game during BB performed in S938 in the flowchart of the process at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not there is a navigation instruction (S991). In this process, it is determined whether or not the start command includes any information of the instruction monitor numbers "1" to "9". Then, when the start command includes any information of the instruction monitor numbers "1" to "9", the sub CPU 102 determines that there is a navigation instruction.

In S991, when the sub CPU 102 determines that there is a navigation instruction (when the determination in S991 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the navigation data corresponding to the acquired instruction monitor number (S992). For example, when the instruction monitor number acquired on the sub side is any of "1" to "6", the sub CPU 102 has the batting order navigation data (stop button press order notification effect data) corresponding to the instruction monitor number. ) Is set, and if it is any of "7" to "9", the BB notification navigation data ("red 7" symbol, "blue 7" symbol or "BAR" symbol corresponding to the instruction monitor number is valid. Set the notification effect data) to align on the line. Then, after the processing of S992, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S996 described later.

On the other hand, in S991, when the sub CPU 102 determines that there is no navigation instruction (when the determination in S991 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the navigation lottery process (S993). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the navigation lottery table (see FIGS. 201 and 202), and based on the game status and the sub lottery flag A (internal winning combination), whether or not the “!” Navigation is generated (winning / winning / Determine non-winning). Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the navigation lottery has been won (S994).

In S994, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the navigation lottery has not been won (when the determination in S994 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S996 described later. On the other hand, in S994, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the navigation lottery has been won (when the determination in S994 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the "!" Navigation data (S995).

After the processing of S992 or S995, or when the determination in S994 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a game in the story BB (S996). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the on / off state of the story BB provided as one of the sub management flags, and determines whether or not the current game is a game in the story BB.

In S996, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is a game in the story BB (when the determination in S996 is YES), the sub CPU 102 determines whether the sub lottery flag is a flag other than the "common bell". Is determined (S997).

In S997, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub lottery flag is not a flag other than the "common bell" (when the determination in S997 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1005 described later. On the other hand, in S997, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub lottery flag is a flag other than the "common bell" (when the determination in S997 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the warning sound effect (S998). Then, after the processing of S998, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S1005 described later.

On the other hand, in S996, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the game in the story BB (when the determination in S996 is NO), the sub CPU 102 has a sub lottery flag other than "chance lip" and "common bell". It is determined whether or not it is a flag (S999). In S999, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub lottery flag is not a flag other than the "chance lip" and the "common bell" (when the determination in S999 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1005 described later.

On the other hand, in S999, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub lottery flag is a flag other than the "chance lip" and the "common bell" (when the determination is made when S999 is YES), the sub CPU 102 is on the main side. It is determined whether or not the additional lottery for the number of ART games played has been won (S1000). Specifically, it is determined whether or not the lottery for adding the number of ART games in the special BB performed on the main side is won.

In S1000, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the additional lottery for the number of ART games has been won (when the determination in S1000 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the number of the winning ART additional games in the notification game number counter. (S1001). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the game release flag to the ON state (S1002). Next, the sub CPU 102 selects and sets the ART additional notification effect data based on the number of winning ART additional games (value set in the notification game number counter) (S1003). Then, after the processing of S1003, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during BB, and shifts the processing to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

On the other hand, in S1000, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the lottery for adding the number of ART games has not been won (when the determination in S1000 is NO), the sub CPU 102 has the effect data during BB for when the number of ART games is not added. Is selected and set (S1004). Then, after the processing of S1004, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during BB, and shifts the processing to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

Here, returning to the processing of S997, S998 and S999 again, after the processing of S998, or when S997 or S999 is determined to be NO, the sub CPU 102 has the effect data at the start of the game in the BB according to the game situation. Is selected and set (S1005). Then, after the processing of S1005, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during BB, and shifts the processing to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

[Processing at the start of the game at the time of winning the BB]
Next, with reference to FIGS. 268 and 269, the BB winning game start processing performed in S941 in the flowchart of the game start processing during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264) will be described.

On the other hand, in S1011, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the SBB (BB3) is won (when the determination in S1011 is YES), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not to execute the lever freeze (S1012).

When the sub CPU 102 determines in S1012 that the lever freeze is to be executed (when the determination in S1012 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the lever freeze effect data (S1013). Next, the sub CPU 102 clears various counters and flags (announcement game number counter, precursor counter, specialization counter, game release flag, etc.) (S1014). Then, after the processing of S1014, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the start of the game during BB, and shifts the processing to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

On the other hand, in S1012, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the lever freeze is not executed (when the determination in S1012 is NO), or when the determination in S1011 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not there is a navigation instruction. (S1015).

When the sub CPU 102 determines in S1015 that there is a navigation instruction (when the determination in S1015 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the navigation data corresponding to the acquired instruction monitor number (S1016). Then, after the processing of S1016, the sub CPU 102 performs the processing of S1020 described later.

On the other hand, in S1015, when the sub CPU 102 determines that there is no navigation instruction (when the determination in S1015 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the navigation lottery process (S1017). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the navigation lottery table (see FIGS. 201 and 202), and based on the game status and the sub lottery flag A (internal winning combination), whether or not the “!” Navigation is generated (winning / winning / Determine non-winning). Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the navigation lottery has been won (S1018).

After the processing of S1016 or S1019, or when the determination in S1018 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the sub-game state is the specialized effect state (S1020). In S1020, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the specialized effect state (when the determination in S1020 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1024 described later.

On the other hand, in S1020, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the specialized effect state (when the determination in S1020 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the processing at the start of the game during the specialized effect described with reference to FIG. 265. (S1021).

Next, the sub CPU 102 performs the BB winning process in the special zone (S1022). In this process, the sub CPU 102 performs an effect rewriting process and an effect selection process using a specific table based on the type and situation of the specialized zone. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data selected in the process of S1022 (S1023). Then, after the processing of S1023, the processing at the start of the game during BB is ended, and the processing is transferred to S943 of the processing at the start of the game during ART (see FIGS. 263 and 264).

Here, returning to the process of S1020 again, when the determination in S1020 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is an NBB (BB1 or BB2) winning game (S1024). In S1024, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not an NBB (BB1 or BB2) winning game (when the determination in S1024 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1031 described later.

On the other hand, in S1024, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is an NBB (BB1 or BB2) winning game (when the determination in S1024 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs a story BB generation lottery process (S1025). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the story BB generation lottery table (not shown), and based on the number of difference games (internal ART counter value-display ART counter value), whether or not story BB is generated (winning / winning /). The non-winning) is determined, and the type of story BB (story A to C) is determined. Then, when the story BB generation lottery is won, the story BB flag is set to the on state.

Then, after the processing of S1116, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command, and also ends the effect content determination processing (see FIGS. 255 and 256).

On the other hand, in S1115, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not in the CZ in-progress state (when the S1115 is NO determination), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the sub game state is in the ART preparation state. (S1117).

In S1117, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is in the ART preparation state (YES in S1117), the sub CPU 102 performs the ART preparation game end processing (S1118). In this process, the sub CPU 102 performs a set process of the effect data at the end of the game in the ART preparation state, and also updates the sub management flag according to the game situation. The details of the process at the end of the game during ART preparation will be described later with reference to FIG. 277 described later. Then, after the processing of S1118, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command, and also ends the effect content determination processing (see FIGS. 255 and 256).

On the other hand, in S1117, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not in the ART preparation state (NO determination in S1117), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the sub game state is the ART state (when the sub game state is determined to be the ART state). S1119).

In S1119, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the ART state (when the determination in S1119 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the process at the time of receiving the display command and determines the effect content (FIGS. 255 and FIG. 256) also ends.

On the other hand, in S1119, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the ART state (when the determination in S1119 is YES), the sub CPU 102 updates the payout number counter during ART (S1120). The payout number counter during ART is a counter for counting the total number of medals paid out (total number of medals won) during the game period of ART currently in operation, and is provided in the sub RAM 103.

Next, the sub CPU 102 performs the process at the end of the game during ART (S1121). In this process, the sub CPU 102 performs a set process of the effect data at the end of the game in the ART state, and also updates the sub management flag according to the game situation. The details of the processing at the end of the game during ART will be described later with reference to FIG. 278 described later. Then, after the processing of S1121, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command, and also ends the effect content determination processing (see FIGS. 255 and 256).

[Processing at the end of normal game]
Next, with reference to FIG. 275, the processing at the end of the normal game performed in S1112 in the flowchart of the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (S1131).

In S1131, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (when the determination in S1131 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the normal middle game end processing and displays commands. The reception processing (see FIG. 274) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1131, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (when S1131 is a NO determination), the sub CPU 102 is in a sub game state of a bonus (BB or MB). It is determined whether or not there is (S1132).

In S1132, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the bonus (BB or MB) state (when the determination in S1132 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the normal middle game end processing and displays commands. The reception processing (see FIG. 274) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1132, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the bonus (BB or MB) state (when the determination in S1132 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether the sub game state is the BB internal medium state. (S1133).

In S1133, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the BB internal middle state (when the determination in S1133 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the normal middle game end processing and the display command reception time processing. (See FIG. 274) also ends. On the other hand, in S1133, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the BB internal middle state (when the determination in S1133 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the value of the sub cycle counter is "0". Determine (S1134).

In S1134, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the sub cycle counter is "0" (when the determination in S1134 is YES), the sub CPU 102 normally sets the sub flag to the off state and turns on the sub flag when CZ is introduced. Set to the state (S1135). By this process, the sub-game state shifts from the normal state to the state at the time of introducing CZ. Then, after the processing of S1135, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the normal game, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274).

[Processing at the end of the game during CZ]
Next, with reference to FIG. 276, the processing at the end of the game during CZ performed in S1116 in the flowchart of the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (S1141).

In S1141, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (when the determination in S1141 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ and displays a command. The reception processing (see FIG. 274) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1141, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (when S1141 is a NO determination), the sub CPU 102 is in a sub game state of a bonus (BB or MB). It is determined whether or not there is (S1142).

In S1142, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the bonus (BB or MB) state (when the determination in S1142 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ and displays a command. The reception processing (see FIG. 274) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1142, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the bonus (BB or MB) state (when the determination in S1142 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether the sub game state is the BB internal medium state. (S1143).

In S1143, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the BB internal middle state (when the determination in S1143 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ and the processing at the time of receiving the display command. (See FIG. 274) also ends. On the other hand, in S1143, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the BB internal middle state (when the determination in S1143 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the battle victory (ART winning) is confirmed in the current game. Is determined (S1144). In this process, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the battle victory (ART winning) has been confirmed in the current game based on the information of the main management flag included in the display command data. For example, in the current game, when the information of the main management flag included in the display command data received on the sub side is the information indicating that the ART preparing flag is on, the sub CPU 102 wins the battle (ART). It is determined that the winning) has been confirmed.

In S1144, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the battle victory (ART winning) is confirmed in the current game (when the determination in S1144 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the sub flag in CZ to the off state and sets the sub flag in preparation for ART. Set to the on state (S1145). By this process, the sub-game state shifts from the CZ middle state to the ART preparation state. Then, after the processing of S1145, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274).

On the other hand, in S1144, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the battle victory (ART winning) has not been confirmed in the current game (when the S1144 is NO determination), the sub CPU 102 loses the battle (ART winning) in the current game. Is determined (S1146). For example, in the current game, when the information of the main management flag included in the display command data received on the sub side is the information indicating that the normal flag is on, the sub CPU 102 loses the battle (ART non-winning). ) Is confirmed.

In S1146, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the battle defeat (ART non-winning) has not been confirmed in the current game (when the determination in S1146 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ, and also The processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274) is also completed.

On the other hand, in S1146, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the battle defeat (ART non-winning) has been confirmed in the current game (when the determination in S1146 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the sub flag in CZ to the off state, and normally The sub flag is set to the on state (S1147). By this process, the sub-game state shifts from the CZ middle state to the normal state. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets "40" (initial value) in the sub cycle counter (S1148). Then, after the processing of S1148, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274).

[Processing at the end of the game during ART preparation]
Next, with reference to FIG. 277, the processing at the end of the ART preparing game performed in S1118 in the flowchart of the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (S1151).

In S1151, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (when the determination in S1151 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the ART preparing game and displays it. The command reception processing (see FIG. 274) also ends. On the other hand, in S1151, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not a bonus (BB or MB) winning game (when S1151 is a NO determination), the sub CPU 102 is in a sub game state of a bonus (BB or MB). It is determined whether or not there is (S1152).

In S1152, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the bonus (BB or MB) state (when the determination in S1152 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the ART preparation game end processing and displays it. The command reception processing (see FIG. 274) also ends. On the other hand, in S1152, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the bonus (BB or MB) state (when the determination in S1152 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether the sub game state is the BB internal medium state. (S1153).

In S1153, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the BB internal middle state (when the determination in S1153 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the ART preparation game end processing and receives a display command. The process (see FIG. 274) also ends. On the other hand, in S1153, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the BB internal medium state (NO determination in S1153), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the RT state has changed to the RT3 state (when the sub game state is determined to be NO). S1154). In this process, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the RT state has shifted to the RT3 state based on the information about the RT state included in the display command data. For example, in the current game, when the information about the RT state included in the display command data received on the sub side is the information corresponding to the RT3 state, the sub CPU 102 determines that the RT state has shifted to the RT3 state.

In S1154, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the RT state has not shifted to the RT3 state (when the determination in S1154 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during ART preparation and receives a display command. The process (see FIG. 274) also ends.

On the other hand, in S1154, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the RT state has shifted to the RT3 state (when the determination in S1154 is YES), the sub CPU 102 selects and sets the ART preparation end effect data (S1155). In this process, the sub CPU 102 is set with the effect data for notifying the information to enter the ART and the effect data for notifying the information to enter the special zone. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the ART preparing sub-flag to the off state, and sets the ART-preparing sub-flag and the special effect sub-flag to the on state (S1156).

At the start of the game period in the ART state, the game in the additional specialized state for determining the initial game of ART is started on the main side. Then, on the sub side as well, at the start of the game period in the ART state, the special effect is performed in conjunction with the start of the game in the additional specialized state, so that the special effect sub flag is also set to the on state in the processing of S1156. To. Therefore, by the process of S1156, the sub-game state shifts from the ART preparing state to the ART state, and the specialized effect is started from the next game. Then, after the processing of S1156, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during CZ, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274).

In S1167, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is the BB internal middle state (when the determination in S1167 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the process at the end of the BB internal middle game during ART (S1168). The details of the processing at the end of the game during the internal BB during ART will be described later with reference to FIG. 283 described later. Then, after the processing of S1168, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during ART, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274).

On the other hand, in S1167, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the sub game state is not the BB internal middle state (NO determination in S1167), the sub CPU 102 performs the ART normal middle game end processing (S1169). The details of the processing at the end of the ART normal game will be described later with reference to FIG. 284 described later. Then, after the processing of S1169, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during ART, and also ends the processing at the time of receiving the display command (see FIG. 274).

[Processing at the end of specialized games]
Next, with reference to FIG. 279, the processing at the end of the specialized middle game performed in S1162 in the flowchart of the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is a game at the end of the specialized production (S1171).

In S1171, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the game at the end of the specialization effect (when the determination in S1171 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the specialization game and the game during ART. The end-time processing (see FIG. 278) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1171, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the game at the end of the specialization effect (when the determination in S1171 is YES), the sub CPU 102 has the special zone types A to E. It is determined whether or not it is either (S1172).

In S1172, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the special zone type is not any of the special zones A to E (when the determination in S1172 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1176 described later. On the other hand, in S1172, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the special zone type is any of the special zones A to E (when the determination in S1172 is YES), the sub CPU 102 has the special zone type as the special zone. It is determined whether or not it is any of A to D (S1173).

In S1173, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the special zone type is not any of the special zones A to D (when the determination in S1173 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1176 described later. On the other hand, in S1173, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the special zone type is any of the special zones A to D (when the determination in S1173 is YES), the sub CPU 102 adds the main side in the current game. It is determined whether or not the continuation (loop) lottery in the final game in the specialized state is won (S1174).

In S1174, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the continuation (loop) lottery in the final game of the addition specialization state on the main side has been won (when the determination in S1174 is YES), the sub CPU 102 continues the addition specialization (loop). ) Special production at the time The production data at the end of the game is set (S1175). Then, after the processing of S1175, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during specialization, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

On the other hand, in S1174, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 has not won the continuation (loop) lottery in the final game in the additional specialized state on the main side (when S1174 is NO determination), or S1172 or S1173 is NO determination. In the case of, the sub CPU 102 sets the special effect sub flag to the off state (S1176). By this process, the specialized effect is completed, and the game during normal ART is started or restarted from the next game. Then, after the processing of S1176, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during specialization, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

[Processing at the end of the game during ART and BB]
Next, with reference to FIGS. 280 and 281, the process at the end of the game during BB during ART performed in S1164 in the flowchart of the process at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is an additional notification game (whether or not an ART additional notification effect has been performed) (S1181).

In S1181, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not an additional notification game (when the determination in S1181 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1184 described later.

On the other hand, in S1181, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is an additional notification game (when the determination in S1181 is YES), the sub CPU 102 adds the number of notification games to the value of the display ART counter (S1182). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets (clears 0) the value of the notification game number counter to "0" (S1183).

After the processing of S1183, or when the determination in S1181 is NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is the game at the end of NBB (BB1 or BB2) (S1184).

In S1184, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the game at the end of NBB (BB1 or BB2) (when the determination in S1184 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1197 described later. On the other hand, in S1184, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the game at the end of NBB (BB1 or BB2) (when the determination in S1184 is YES), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the story BB is in progress. Determine (S1185).

In S1185, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the story BB is in progress (when the determination in S1185 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1187 described later. On the other hand, in S1185, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the story BB is not in progress (when the determination in S1185 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the NBB end screen selection process (S1186). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the NBB end screen lottery table during ART shown in FIGS. 159A to 159C, and based on the number of medals paid out in the current ART (value of the number of medals paid out during ART), the NBB end screen. Type (end screens A to R) is determined.

After the processing of S1186 or when S1185 is NO determination, the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data of the NBB end screen (S1187).

Next, the sub CPU 102 performs a lottery process for the number of notification games at the end of NBB (S1188). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the NBB end notification game number lottery table during ART (see FIGS. 183 to 186), the sub lottery flag (internal winning combination), the presence / absence of the winning of the story BB, and the number of difference games (see FIGS. 183 to 186). Based on the value of the internal ART counter-the value of the display ART counter), it is determined whether or not the additional notification effect of ART is generated (winning / non-winning), and the type of the number of notification games (10G to 300G) is determined. Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the lottery for the number of notification games at the end of NBB has been won (S1189).

In S1189, when it is determined that the sub CPU 102 has not won the NBB end notification game number lottery (when the determination in S1189 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the process at the end of the game during BB during ART and during ART. The game end processing (see FIG. 278) is also completed.

On the other hand, in S1189, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the lottery for the number of notification games at the end of NBB has been won (when the determination in S1189 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the number of winning games (number of notification games) in the notification game number counter. Set (S1190). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the game number release flag to the ON state (S1191). Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the story BB is in progress (S1192).

In S1192, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the story BB is not in progress (when the determination in S1192 is NO), the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data for displaying the cumulative number of additional games announced in the BB (when it is determined that S1192 is NO). S1193). On the other hand, in S1192, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the story BB is in progress (when the determination in S1192 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the effect data for displaying the number of notification games set in the notification game number counter. (S1194).

After the processing of S1193 or S1194, the sub CPU 102 adds the number of notified games to the value of the display ART counter (S1195). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the value of the notification game number counter to "0" (S1196). Then, after the processing of S1196, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during BB during ART, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

Here, returning to the process of S1184 again, when S1184 determines NO (when it is not at the end of NBB), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not it is at the end of SBB (S1197).

In S1197, when the sub CPU 102 determines that it is not the end of the SBB (when the determination in S1197 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during BB during ART and the processing at the end of the game during ART (FIG. 278). See) also ends. On the other hand, in S1197, when the sub CPU 102 determines that it is the end of the SBB (when the determination in S1197 is YES), the sub CPU 102 displays the effect data for displaying the cumulative number of additional games announced in the BB. Set (S1198). Then, after the processing of S1198, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during BB during ART, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

[Processing at the end of the game at the time of winning BB during ART]
Next, with reference to FIG. 282, the process at the end of the game at the time of winning the BB during ART performed in S1166 in the flowchart of the process at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the symbol combinations related to the BB are aligned on the effective line (whether or not the BB has won a prize) (S1201). In this process, the sub CPU 102 acquires the parameters (information) related to the display combination included in the display command, and determines whether or not the symbol combinations related to the BB are aligned on the effective line.

In S1201, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the symbol combinations related to the BB are aligned on the effective line (when the determination in S1201 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the display effect data of the BB winning screen (S1202). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the value of the precursor counter to "0" (S1203). In this process, the sub CPU 102 also discards the precursor scenario effect being executed. Then, after the processing of S1203, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game at the time of winning the BB during ART, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

On the other hand, in S1201, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the symbol combinations related to the BB are not aligned on the effective line (when the determination in S1201 is NO), the sub CPU 102 sets the sub flag inside the BB to the ON state (S1204). ). By this process, the sub-game state shifts to the BB internal middle state. Then, after the processing of S1204, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game at the time of winning the BB during ART, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

[Processing at the end of the game during ART and inside BB]
Next, with reference to FIG. 283, the process at the end of the game inside the BB during ART performed in S1168 in the flowchart of the process at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the value of the precursor counter is "0" (S1211). The precursor counter referred to in the process of S1211 is a counter for counting the number of scenario games of the precursor effect selected when the BB combination is won in the ART state. In the pachi-slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, when the BB combination is won in the ART state, a predetermined precursor effect for notifying the BB is selected, and the number of scenario games of the selected precursor effect is set in the precursor counter. Then, in the BB internal medium state, if the value of the precursor counter becomes "0" in the selected precursor effect, a BB notification is generated and the game in the BB state is started from the next game.

In S1211, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the precursor counter is not "0" (when the determination in S1211 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during the BB internal during ART, and also ends the game during ART. The end-time processing (see FIG. 278) is also completed.

On the other hand, in S1211, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the precursor counter is "0" (when the determination in S1211 is YES), the sub CPU 102 sets the BB internal sub flag to the off state (S1212). Then, after the processing of S1212, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game inside the BB during ART, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

[Processing at the end of the normal ART game]
Next, with reference to FIG. 284, the processing at the end of the normal game during ART performed in S1169 in the flowchart of the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the value of the precursor counter is larger than "0" (S1221).

In S1221, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the precursor counter is larger than "0" (when the determination in S1221 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1227 described later. On the other hand, in S1221, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the precursor counter is not larger than "0" (when the determination in S1221 is NO), the sub CPU 102 has the value of the ART game number counter (main) "0". It is determined whether or not it is (S1222).

In S1222, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the ART game number counter is not "0" (when the determination in S1222 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the ART normal game and the game during the ART. The end-time processing (see FIG. 278) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1222, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the ART game number counter is "0" (when the determination in S1222 is YES), the sub CPU 102 is in a specialized state in which the ball ejection state on the main side is added. It is determined whether or not there is (S1223).

In S1223, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the ball ejection state on the main side is the additional specialized state (when the determination in S1223 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the ART normal middle game end processing and ART. The processing at the end of the middle game (see FIG. 278) is also completed. On the other hand, in S1223, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the ball ejection state on the main side is not the additional specialized state (when the determination in S1223 is NO), the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the RT state is the RT3 state. (S1224).

In S1224, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the RT state is the RT3 state (when the determination in S1224 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the ART normal game end process and the ART game end process (when the ART state is YES). (See FIG. 278) also ends.

On the other hand, in S1224, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the RT state is not the RT3 state (when the determination in S1224 is NO), the sub CPU 102 sets the sub flag during ART to the off state and sets the sub flag during normal to the on state. (S1225). By this process, the sub-game state shifts from the ART state to the normal state. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the value of the sub cycle counter to "40" (S1226). Then, after the processing of S1226, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during the ART normal game, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during the ART (see FIG. 278).

Here, returning to the process of S1221 again, if S1221 is determined to be YES, the sub CPU 102 subtracts 1 from the value of the precursor counter (S1227). Next, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the value of the precursor counter is “0” (S1228).

In S1228, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the precursor counter is not "0" (when the determination in S1228 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1233 described later. On the other hand, in S1228, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the value of the precursor counter is "0" (when the determination in S1228 is YES), the sub CPU 102 determines that the precursor scenario effect being executed is the precursor scenario effect of the special zone. It is determined whether or not it is (S1229).

In S1229, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the precursor scenario effect being executed is not the precursor scenario effect of the special zone (when the determination in S1229 is NO), the sub CPU 102 performs the process of S1233 described later. On the other hand, in S1229, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the precursor scenario effect being executed is the precursor scenario effect of the special zone (when the determination in S1229 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the special counter lottery process (when the determination is YES). S1230). In this process, the sub CPU 102 refers to the specialization counter lottery table (see FIGS. 157 and 158), and based on the specialization zone type and the value of the specialization game number counter on the main side, the number of games of the specialization effect. (Initial value of specialization counter: 1G, 3G, 5G, 7G, 10G or 20G) is determined.

Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the lottery result (specialization counter value) of the specialization counter lottery in the specialization counter (S1231). Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the special effect sub flag to the ON state (S1232). By this process, the sub-game state shifts to the specialized effect state, and the specialized effect is started from the next game.

After the processing of S1232, or when S1228 or S1229 is determined to be NO, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the current game is the execution timing of the additional notification effect (S1233).

In S1233, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is not the execution timing of the additional notification effect (when the determination in S1229 is NO), the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the normal ART game and ends the game during the ART. The time processing (see FIG. 278) is also completed.

On the other hand, in S1233, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the current game is the execution timing of the additional notification effect (when the determination in S1229 is YES), the sub CPU 102 performs the additional notification effect lottery process (S1234). In this process, for example, when the precursor scenario effect being executed is the precursor scenario effect for the number of games or the precursor scenario effect for the end of ART, the sub CPU 102 uses the lottery table for the number of additional games during ART (see FIGS. 120 to 124). ), Based on the sub-lottery flag A (internal winning combination) and the number of notification games to be notified, the effect pattern number of the additional notification effect to be executed during the ART state is determined, and the effect data corresponding to the effect pattern number is determined. Specify the table. Next, the sub CPU 102 sets the selected effect data table (S1235).

After the processing of S1235, or when the determination in S1223 is NO, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the end of the game during ART normal game, and also ends the processing at the end of the game during ART (see FIG. 278).

[Processing when payout end command is received]
Next, with reference to FIG. 284, the process at the time of receiving the payout end command performed in S832 in the flowchart of the effect content determination process (see FIGS. 255 and 256) will be described.

First, the sub CPU 102 determines whether or not the demo migration is prohibited (S1241). When the sub CPU 102 determines in S1241 that the demo transition is prohibited (when the determination in S1241 is YES), the sub CPU 102 ends the process at the time of receiving the payout end command and determines the effect content (FIGS. 255 and 256). See) also ends.

On the other hand, in S1241, when the sub CPU 102 determines that the demo transition is not prohibited (when the determination in S1241 is NO), the sub CPU 102 sets the demo display flag to the ON state (S1242). Next, the sub CPU 102 executes a demo display effect (S1243). Then, after the processing of S1243, the sub CPU 102 ends the processing at the time of receiving the payout end command, and also ends the effect content determination processing (see FIGS. 255 and 256).
