As this type of gaming machine, there is a slot machine, and for example, as a gaming state having different advantages, there is a gaming state called RT, AT, ART or the like (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).
RT is an abbreviation for replay time, and usually refers to a game state in which the winning rate of the replay role is high so that the next game can be played without inserting medals. Then, by providing a plurality of gaming states in which the winning rates of the replay combinations are different, the advantage of each gaming state can be changed.
In addition, AT is an abbreviation for assist time, and when a small role or a replay role is won, for example, a symbol that serves as a guide for pressing a button is notified, or the operation order of the stop button is notified. It is a gaming state that assists in winning a role or replay role. Then, by providing a gaming state that assists winning a prize such as a small winning combination or a replay winning combination and a gaming state that does not assist, the advantage of each gaming state can be changed.
In addition, ART is an abbreviation for assist replay time, and by combining RT and AT, the winning rate of the replay role is set high, and the winning of small roles and replay roles is assisted. It has become. Then, there are a game state in which the winning rate of the replay role is high and the winning of the small role or the replay role is assisted, and a game state in which the winning rate of the replay role is low and the winning of the small role or the replay role is not assisted. By providing it, the advantage of each game state can be changed.

A preferred embodiment of the gaming machine according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 76.

The slot machine 1 is an embodiment of a gaming machine according to the present invention, and like a normal slot machine, includes a housing 1b having an opening on the front surface and a front door 1a that covers the opening so as to be openable and closable. There is.
The front door 1a is configured so that three consecutive symbols (identification information) represented on the reels 41a to 41c can be identified from the outside of the machine, and a plurality of operating means (bet button 2a, operated by the player). The housing 1b includes a start lever 3 and a stop button 5), and the housing 1b includes a plurality of devices such as a drum unit 4 that rotationally drives reels 41a to 41c, a medal payout device 7 that pays out medals, and a main control unit 10 that operates as a computer. , Sub-control unit 20 and the like.

Such a slot machine 1 is configured to be able to execute the following slot machine games by operating the main control unit 10 as a winning combination determining means or the like.

At the start of the game, the number of multiplications is set using medals (including credit medals).
There are two methods for setting the number of multiplications: a method of inserting medals directly from the medal insertion slot 2 and a method of setting by pressing the bet button 2a.

In the method of inserting medals from the medal insertion slot 2 and setting the number of medals, the inserted medals are detected by the medal selector 2b provided on the back surface of the front door 1a, so that the number of medals inserted corresponds to the number of medals inserted. The number (however, the upper limit is the multiplication number "3" corresponding to three medals) will be set.
The upper limit of the number of multiplications may be "1", "2", or "4" or more.

The bet button 2a (for example, the max bet button) is an example of an operation means capable of accepting the player's operation related to the setting of the multiplication number, and when this is pressed, the credit medal is internally stored as data. Therefore, a predetermined number of medals (for example, 3 medals) is subtracted, and the subtracted amount is set as a multiplication number.
The bet button is not limited to the bet button 2a, and a plurality of bet buttons having different numbers of multiplications may be provided. Further, credit medals are added by inserting medals from the medal insertion slot 2 or winning a prize, and for example, up to 50 medals can be credited (stored).

In this way, the multiplication number set by the direct insertion from the medal insertion slot 2 or the pressing operation of the bet button 2a is stored in a storage means such as a RAM provided in the main control unit 10.
Then, when the number of multiplications reaches a predetermined number (for example, three), the game can be started, which has the right to execute one game.

In the state where the game can be started, the operation of the start lever 3 is effective. In this valid state, when the start lever 3 is tilted, the game is started, the reels 41a to 41c on which a plurality of symbols are represented start to fluctuate, and a plurality of winning combinations such as a replay combination and a small combination are started. An internal lottery process is executed in which the lottery result of this game is determined in advance before the reel 41 is stopped (including the winning combination).
In the internal lottery process, the winning combination of this game is determined by lottery from a plurality of winning combinations based on a predetermined winning probability.
In the present embodiment, the internal lottery process is completed before the reels 41a to 41c, which will be described later, reach steady rotation, but the reels 41a to 41c may be completed before the reels start rotating. ..

Each of the reels 41a to 41c is an example of the variable display means, and as shown in FIG. 4, "replay", "bell", and the like are, as shown in FIG. "Watermelon", "cherry", "red 7", "white 7", "BAR", "blank A", "blank B", "red blank" are represented respectively, and the rotation speed gradually increases from the stopped state. After raising, it reaches a steady rotation that rotates at a constant speed.
When such steady rotation is reached, the stop buttons 5a to 5c provided corresponding to the reels 41a to 41c are in a state in which they can be pressed (validation of the stop button 5 operation).

The stop buttons 5a to 5c are examples of operation means for performing an operation such as a specific operation. For example, when the light emitting means such as an LED built in the stop buttons 5a to 5c is lit, the stop buttons 5a to 5c can be pressed. When each stop button 5 is pressed in such a state, the reels 41a to 41c are stopped and controlled so as to stop at a combination of symbols allowed by the operation timing and the lottery result of the internal lottery process. LED.

In the stopped state, the three symbols represented in the reels 41a to 41c, which are continuous in the vertical direction, are stopped so as to face the outside of the machine from the display window 6 (sometimes referred to as a stop display), and the stop display mode at this time is set. Whether or not there is a prize is determined based on this.
In the present embodiment, the winning judgment is made based on the combination of the symbols stopped only on one of the upper, middle, and lower lines, the downward-sloping line, and the upward-sloping line. ing.
The number of valid lines (winning lines) for determining winning is not particularly limited, and can be appropriately changed depending on the arrangement configuration of symbols, the type of symbols, the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination, and the like.

The combinations of symbols to be determined are roughly classified into a combination of symbols corresponding to the replay combination (see FIG. 5) and a combination of symbols corresponding to other than the replay combination (see FIG. 6). A combination of one or more symbols is associated with each other.
When a combination of a plurality of symbols is associated with one winning combination, the combination of symbols to be stopped and displayed differs depending on the pressing order of the stop buttons 5a to 5c and the operation timing. ..
In FIGS. 5 and 6, the symbols in the "symbol combination" column indicate the stop symbols on the winning line in the order of "left reel 41a-middle reel 41b-right reel 41c" from the left.
Further, the "push order" column indicates the push order for establishing the combination of symbols shown in the "combination of symbols" column. "Left" indicates the stop operation target is the stop button 5a, and "middle" indicates the stop button 5b. , "Right" means the stop button 5c, and "1st" means the stop button that stops first.

As shown in FIG. 5, as a combination of symbols corresponding to the replay role, normal replay (“replay / replay / replay”) and special replay 1 (“replay / replay / red 7 / white 7 / BAR / blank B”) , Special Replay 2 ("BAR / BAR / BAR"), Special Replay 3 ("Bell / BAR / BAR", etc.), Special Replay 4 ("Bell / Bell / BAR", etc.), Special Replay 5 ("Replay / Watermelon")・ Replay ”), Special Replay 6 (“Replay, Replay, Watermelon”), W Red 7 Replay (Red Blank, Red 7, Red Blank), S Red 7 Replay (“Watermelon, Red 7, Red Blank”, etc.), There is a Gase Red 7 replay ("Bell, Red 7, Red Blank", etc.).

"Special Replay 1", "Special Replay 5" and "Special Replay 6" are stopped by operating the stop buttons 5a to 5c in the push order shown in FIG. 5, and the current gaming state is changed to another gaming state. A state that triggers a transition It functions as a transition trigger.
For example, "special replay 1" and "special replay 6" function as promotion replays that trigger a transition to another gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than the current gaming state.
In addition, the "special replay 5" functions as a fall replay that triggers a transition to another gaming state that is more disadvantageous to the player than the current gaming state.
"W Red 7 Replay", "S Red 7 Replay" and "Gase Red 7 Replay" are winning combinations that are subject to lottery in the case of the "bonus game state" (hereinafter, also simply referred to as "bonus") described later, for example. , "W Red 7 Replay" or "S Red 7 Replay" is won, the player is given a privilege (execution right to execute advantageous game state (rush stock described later)). There is.

Further, as a combination of symbols corresponding to the bell role, as shown in FIG. 6, push order bells 1 to 4 (“replay bell replay”) and push order bells 5 to 12 (“bell bell bell”). , Common bell ("Replay Bell Replay"), Strong Bell ("Bell Bell Bell", etc.).
"Push-order bells 1 to 12" are winning combinations for which the push order is specified, and by operating the stop buttons 5a to 5c in the operation order corresponding to the push order shown in FIG. 6, the symbols are in a manner advantageous to the player. Is stopped and displayed.
Specifically, when the "push-order bell" is stopped by operating the stop buttons 5a to 5c in the specified operation order, nine cards are paid out. On the other hand, if the stop buttons 5a to 5c are not operated in the designated operation order, one medal will be awarded if the combination of symbols corresponding to the one-card combination A to J can be stopped.
Further, if the stop buttons 5a to 5c are not operated in the specified operation order and the combination of symbols corresponding to the single combination A to J cannot be stopped, the "push order bell" may be missed. A predetermined combination of symbols (such as "Replay Cherry Bell") is stopped (hereinafter, this combination of symbols is referred to as "bell spilled eyes"), and the payout is not performed.

In addition, as a combination of patterns corresponding to the role of cherry, weak cherry ("BAR / watermelon cherry replay"), strong cherry ("BAR / watermelon cherry, red 7 / white 7 / BAR / blank B", etc.), There is the strongest cherry ("Cherry / ANY / ANY" (however, ANY is an arbitrary pattern)).
In addition, there is a watermelon ("Bell / Watermelon / Red 7 / White 7 / BAR / Blank B") as a combination of symbols corresponding to the role of watermelon, and a chance ("Bell / Watermelon") as a combination of symbols corresponding to the role of chance.・ There is a "replay").

As a combination of symbols corresponding to the bonus role, a normal bonus ("red 7, red 7, red blank"), a super bonus ("red 7, red 7, red 7"), and a white bonus ("white 7, white 7," There is white 7 ").
The bonus combination is a winning combination that can carry over the winning right as long as the combination of the corresponding symbols is not stopped in the winning game and the games after the game. Therefore, the established state of the bonus winning is maintained until the bonus combination is won by stopping the combination of the corresponding symbols (hereinafter, this gaming state is referred to as the "bonus internal winning state").

Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, one or a plurality of winning combinations are associated with each winning type.
In the replay role, replay A to replay J3 are provided as winning types.
For example, replay A is associated with "normal replay", replay B is associated with "special replay 1", and replay H1 is associated with "normal replay" and "special replay 5". The replay J1 is associated with the "special replay 5" and the "special replay 1".
Further, in the role of bell, bells A1 to H are provided as winning types.
For example, the bell A1 is associated with the "pushing order bell 1", the "single card combination A", and the "single card combination B", and the bell G is associated with the "common bell". Is associated with a "strong bell".
It should be noted that the bells A1 to F2 have the property of being "overlapping combinations" in which a plurality of types of winning combinations can be simultaneously won in one internal lottery.

In addition, the winning combination (winning type) that is the target of the internal lottery differs depending on the current gaming state of the replay combination.
For example, replay A is a lottery target during RT0, replays I1 to I3 are lottery targets during RT1, replays A, replays H1 to H3 and replays J1 to J3 are lottery targets during RT2, and during RT3. Replay A, Replay B and Replay H1 to H3 are subject to lottery, Replay A, Replay B and Replay I are subject to lottery during RT4, and during bonuses ("Super Bonus" and "White Bonus"), "Replay""E, Replay F and Replay G" are subject to the lottery (see FIGS. 9 to 16).
The details of the RT state (RT0 to RT4) will be described later.

As shown in the "stop display" column of FIG. 5, the replay combination is set in a combination in which the symbols do not stop (are not aligned) even if the winning combination is won. For example, when the winning type is "Replay E", the symbols of the winning combinations other than "Normal Replay" and "W Red 7 Replay" are not stopped.
In this way, it is possible to adjust and set the winning probability of each winning combination by providing a winning combination that wins but does not actually have a combination of corresponding symbols.

When it is determined that the combination of symbols corresponding to the above-mentioned small winning combination has stopped on the winning line, the game value corresponding to the combination of each symbol is given.
For example, the small winning combination is determined by stopping the combination of symbols corresponding to the small winning combination such as the bell role, the cherry role, and the watermelon role, and the medal payout device 7 is driven and controlled, so that the hopper 7a in which the medals are stored is controlled. A predetermined number of medals are paid out from the medal payout outlet 7b.
Specifically, 9 medals are paid out by stopping the combination of symbols corresponding to the bell role, and 3 medals are paid out by stopping the combination of symbols corresponding to the watermelon role, corresponding to the cherry role. One medal is paid out by the stop display of the combination of symbols to be played, and one medal is paid out by stopping the combination of symbols corresponding to the chance combination.
The medals can be paid out so that only the amount exceeding the maximum number of credit medals is paid out, but by operating a predetermined setting button (not shown) in advance, a prize is won each time a prize is generated. It can also be configured so that the corresponding medals are paid out.
Further, by stopping the combination of symbols corresponding to the replay combination, the replay winning is determined, and the game can be played without inserting medals in the next game, that is, without spending medals.

The winning probability of a small role is the relationship of "common bell">"weakcherry">"watermelon">"strongcherry">"chance">"strongbell" in all RT states (RT0 to RT4) described later. (See FIGS. 9 to 13).
The relationship of "strong cherry">"chance" may be the relationship of "chance">"strongcherry" depending on the winning combination that is won at the same time. For example, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 13, when "strong cherry" or "chance" is won at the same time as "normal bonus" or "white bonus", "strong cherry">"strongcherry">" It is set so that "chance" or "chance">"strongcherry" (for example, "red BB + cherry B" and "red BB + chance", "white BB + cherry B" and "white BB + chance").
In addition, the winning combination has a winning probability that fluctuates according to the six-step setting value (hereinafter referred to as the game setting value) set in the slot machine 1, and the winning probability fluctuates according to the game setting value. There is a winning combination that does not.
For example, a "weak cherry" is provided as a winning combination whose winning probability changes according to the game setting value, and a winning combination other than the "weak cherry" is provided as a winning combination whose winning probability does not change according to the game setting value. Has been done.
Specifically, for "weak cherry", for example, the winning probability at setting 1 is 1150/65536, the winning probability at setting 2 is 1180/65536, and the winning probability at setting 3 is 1210/65536. The winning probability at 4 is 1240/65536, the winning probability at setting 5 is 1270/65536, the winning probability at setting 6 is 1300/65536, and so on. It is set differently according to 1 to 6).
On the other hand, for example, in "watermelon", the winning probabilities of the settings 1 to 6 are set to the same winning probabilities in all the game setting values of the six stages, such as 850/65536.
The winning combination whose winning probability changes according to the game setting value and the winning combination whose winning probability does not change according to the game setting value are not limited to these, and can be arbitrarily set.

In the slot machine game in which the series of operations as described above is one game, as shown in FIG. 3, the main control unit 10 has an operating means such as a bet button 2a, a start lever 3, and a stop button 5 and a medal selector. This is realized by controlling the output means such as the drum unit 4 including the reels 41a to 41c, the pulse motor for rotationally driving them, the medal payout device 7, and the like based on the input information from the input means such as 2b.

Further, in the slot machine 1, a game effect synchronized with such a slot machine game is also performed. For example, the image effect, the fanfare sound, the lamp effect, and the like indicating the transition to the RT state and the AT state are the display 8 such as a liquid crystal TV, the speaker 9, the lamp 11 provided with light emitting means such as an LED, and the three digits, respectively. It is output via a notification means such as a 7-segment display 14 composed of the 7-segment display.

The sub-control unit 20 is configured to be able to execute an operation in accordance with a command from the main control unit 10.
For example, the sub-control unit 20 provides a receiving means such as an input port provided in the sub-control unit 20 to send a control command transmitted from a transmitting means such as an output port provided in the main control unit 10 at predetermined game timings. In addition to receiving via, the notification means such as the display 8 is controlled so as to decode the received control command and perform an effect according to the control command.

The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment has a game state as shown below and a characteristic game property based on the game state, in addition to the same configuration as the normal slot machine.
The slot machine 1 has a state transition diagram shown in FIG. 7 and a plurality of gaming states (RT states) that shift based on the rush trigger and the end trigger shown in FIG.

(RT state)
The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment has RT0 to 4 states (hereinafter, also simply referred to as RT0 to 4) and a bonus gaming state, and in each gaming state, the main control unit 10 operates as a gaming state control means. By doing so, it is controlled (hereinafter, also referred to as transition) to each game state.
RTs 0 to 4 are game states classified according to the difference in winning probability of the replay combination drawn in the internal lottery process, and each has the following characteristics.

For example, RT0 is set to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 7.3 in the internal lottery process, and is a gaming state that is more disadvantageous to the player than RT2 and 3 in the winning probability of the replay combination.
The RT0 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state to shift to another gaming state.

Specifically, the entry into RT0 is triggered by the power-on or the end of the bonus accompanied by the operation of a predetermined initialization switch or the like, and then shifts to RT0.
In addition, the end of RT0 is triggered by the fact that "pushing order bells 1 to 12" are missed when "pushing order bells 1 to 12" are won in RT0, and "bell spilled eyes" are stopped. , RT0 shifts to RT1.
Further, the end of RT0 is triggered by the winning of a bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT0, and then the transition from RT0 to RT4.
In this way, RT0 is not a finite gaming state with a predetermined gaming period, but an infinite gaming state (infinite) that does not shift to another gaming state unless the "bell spilled eye" is stopped or a bonus is won. RT).

RT1 is set to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 7.3 in the internal lottery process, and is in a gaming state that is more disadvantageous to the player than RT2 and 3 in the winning probability of the replay combination.
The RT1 enters this state when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state to shift to another gaming state.

Specifically, the entry into RT1 is triggered by the stop of the "bell spills" at the time of winning the "pushing order bells 1 to 12" in RT0, and then shifts from RT0 to RT1.
Further, the entry into RT1 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" in RT2 and 3, and then shifts from RT2 and 3 to RT1.
Further, the end of RT1 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 6 (promotional replay)" in RT1, and then shifts from RT1 to RT2.
Further, the end of RT1 is triggered by the winning of a bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT1, and then the transition from RT1 to RT4 occurs.
In this way, RT1 is not a finite game state in which the game period is predetermined, but another game unless the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 6 (promotion replay)" is stopped or a bonus is won. It is an infinite gaming state (infinite RT) that does not shift to the state.

RT2 is set to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 1.4 in the internal lottery process, and is a gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than RT0 and 1 in the winning probability of the replay combination.
The RT2 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state to shift to another gaming state.

Specifically, the entry into RT2 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 6 (promotion replay)" in RT1, and then shifts from RT1 to RT2.
Further, the end of RT2 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 1 (promotional replay)" in RT1, and then shifts from RT2 to RT3.
Further, the end of RT2 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" in RT2, and then shifts from RT2 to RT1.
Further, the end of RT2 is triggered by the winning of a bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT2, and then the transition from RT2 to RT4.
In this way, RT2 is not a finite game state in which the game period is set in advance, but the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 1 (promotion replay)" and "special replay 5 (fall replay)" is stopped, or , It is an infinite gaming state (infinite RT) that does not shift to another gaming state unless a bonus is won.

RT3 is set to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 1.4 in the internal lottery process, and is a gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than RT0 and 1 in the winning probability of the replay combination.
The RT3 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state to shift to another gaming state.

Specifically, the entry into RT3 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 1 (promotion replay)" in RT2, and then shifts from RT2 to RT3.
Further, the end of RT3 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" in RT3, and then shifts from RT3 to RT1.
Further, the end of RT3 is triggered by the winning of a bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT3, and then the transition from RT3 to RT4 occurs.
In this way, RT3 is not a finite game state in which the game period is set in advance, but another game unless the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" is stopped or a bonus is won. It is an infinite gaming state (infinite RT) that does not shift to the state.

RT4 is set to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 6.0 in the internal lottery process, is more advantageous to the player than RT0 and 1 in the winning probability of the replay combination, and is more advantageous to the player than RT2 and 3. It is a disadvantageous game state.
The RT4 enters this state when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state to shift to another gaming state.

Specifically, the entry into RT4 is triggered by winning a bonus combination in the internal lottery process during RT1 to 3, and then shifts from RT1 to RT4 to RT4.
Further, the end of RT4 is triggered by the stop of the combination of bonus symbols, and then the RT4 shifts to the bonus.
In this way, RT4 is in the bonus internal winning state and is not a finite game state in which the game period is set in advance, but an infinite game state (infinite) that does not shift to another game state unless the combination of bonus symbols is stopped. RT).

The bonus rushes when the predetermined conditions are met, and after the bonus ends, it shifts to another gaming state.
Specifically, the entry into the bonus is triggered by the suspension of the combination of bonus symbols at RT4, and then the RT4 shifts to the bonus.
In addition, for example, in the case of a normal bonus, the end of the bonus is triggered by the time when more than 162 medals are paid out, and in the case of a super bonus, the time when more than 306 medals are paid out is white. In the case of a bonus, the time when more than 216 cards are paid out will be an opportunity, and then the bonus will shift to RT0.
As described above, the bonus is a finite gaming state that ends when a predetermined number of cards are paid out.

From the above explanations of RT0 to 4 and bonuses, RT2 and 3 are in a relatively advantageous gaming state for the player in terms of the winning probability of the replay role rather than RT0 and 1.
In addition, the bonus is more advantageous than RT0 to 4 in the winning probability of a small role such as a bell role.
In the present embodiment, a plurality of RT states having different advantages are provided, and RT0 is shifted to RT1, which is relatively disadvantageous to the player, or RT2, 3 which is relatively advantageous to the player, and RT0 to 3 are included. By winning the bonus, it has the game nature of shifting to the bonus.
In addition, since the AT states described later overlap in RTs 2 and 3, the ART states are set, so that the RTs 2 and 3 have a game property of increasing the number of medals on hand with a bonus.

In such a game property, it is preferable for the player to shift (promote) from RT1 to RT2, and further, it is preferable for the player to shift (promote) from RT2 to RT3. Then, it is most preferable for the player not to shift (fall) from RT2, 3 to RT1.

Therefore, the combination of symbols corresponding to "Special Replay 6 (Promotion Replay)" that shifts from RT1 to RT2, the combination of symbols corresponding to "Special Replay 1 (Promotion Replay)" that shifts from RT2 to RT3, and RT2, Since the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" that shifts from 3 to RT1 is stopped due to the difference in the pressing order with respect to the stop button 5, the symbols corresponding to promotion replay are used in RT1 and RT2. It is preferable for the player to operate the stop button 5 so that the combination of the above is stopped, or in RTs 2 and 3, the fall replay is not stopped.
However, it is apparently impossible to determine whether or not these special replays have been won, and the stop button 5 is operated so that the combination of symbols corresponding to these special replays stops or does not stop. You will not be able to.

Therefore, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, a symbol or the like as a guideline for pressing the stop button 5 or pressing the stop button 5 is notified (navigated) through a notification means such as a display 8 over a predetermined number of games. To support the promotion from RT1 to RT2, the promotion from RT2 to RT3, and the stay at RT3 by giving the player the privilege of assisting the promotion replay to stop or the fall replay not to stop. It has become.

Specifically, as an example of notification of the push order (information about a specific operation), when the special replay 6 is won during RT1, a combination of symbols corresponding to the special replay 6 (“replay / replay / watermelon”) is displayed. The device 8 displays "left->middle->right" and the like, and the speaker 9 outputs the respective sounds in the order of "left", "middle", and "right".
At this time, the navigation lamps 12 are turned on in the corresponding order "12a->12b->12c".
That is, the operation for the stop button 5 is navigated through the notification means such as the display 8, the speaker 9, and the navigation lamp 12.
As a result, the player operates the stop button 5 according to this navigation (notification), so that the special replay 6 is stopped.
A game state for notifying the push order or the like performed over a predetermined number of games is called an AT (AT state) (assist time).
Then, such an AT is given to the player by lottery.

(AT state)
For example, in RT1, when the AT transition winning combination set as the winning combination related to the transition to the AT state is won, the "AT transition lottery process" for shifting to the AT state is performed.
As the AT transition winning combination, for example, so-called rare roles such as "weak cherry", "watermelon", "strong cherry", and "strong bell" are set, and when the rare role is won in the internal lottery process, The AT transition lottery process is performed based on the winning probability for each game set value.

The number of AT games after shifting to the AT state is stored in the RAM or the like in the storage means in the main control unit 10, and decreases as the game progresses as described later, but this number of AT games exists. As long as it is, promotion to the RT state which is preferable for the player and prevention of falling to the RT state which is unfavorable for the player will be supported.

Specifically, in RT1, when "special replay 6 (promotion replay)" is won, the corresponding pressing order is notified (navigated), and by operating the stop button 5 according to this notification, "special" The combination of symbols corresponding to "Replay 6 (Promotion Replay)" is stopped, and as a result, it becomes possible to promote from RT1 to RT2.

Further, in RT2, when "Special Replay 1 (Promotion Replay)" is won, the corresponding pressing order is notified (navigated), and by operating the stop button 5 according to this notification, "Special Replay 1 (Promotion Replay)" The combination of symbols corresponding to "promotion replay)" is stopped, and as a result, it becomes possible to promote from RT2 to RT3.

Further, when the "special replay 5 (falling replay)" is won in RTs 2 and 3, the push order in which the combination of the corresponding symbols does not stop is notified (navigated), and the stop button 5 is operated according to this notification. As a result, the symbol corresponding to the "special replay 5 (falling replay)" does not stop, and as a result, the symbol can stay at RT2, 3 as it is without falling from RT2, 3 to RT1.

Further, in RTs 1 to 3, as long as the number of AT games exists, when the "pushing order bells 1 to 12" (third winning combination) is won, the corresponding pushing order is notified, and the stop button 5 is notified according to this notification. By operating (specific operation), the game stops at the combination of symbols corresponding to the "push order bell" (specific stop display mode), and as a result, nine medals are awarded.
Further, if the combination of symbols corresponding to the single-card combination A to J (non-specific stop display mode) can be stopped by operating the stop button 5 without following the notification of the pressing order (non-specific operation), One medal will be awarded.
In addition, by operating the stop button 5 (non-specific operation) without following the notification of the pressing order, it is necessary to stop the combination of symbols corresponding to the single combination A to J (non-specific stop display mode). If so, "Bell spilled eyes" (no payout) will be stopped and displayed.
In particular, in RT2 and 3, in addition to the privilege of winning the replay role with a probability of 1 / 1.4, as long as the number of AT games exists, the push corresponding to the bell role at the time of winning the "push order bell" Since the order is notified (navigated) and nine medals are given, the privilege of giving medals is also added, and the game state is most advantageous for the player who can expect an increase in medals.

In this way, the number of AT games is positioned as the number of games for maintaining a state advantageous to the player.
In addition, since the number of AT games (specific value) is a numerical value that decreases as the game progresses, "AT remaining" means how long the AT state will continue after that, based on the currently running game. It is preferably referred to as "the number of games" and is not only stored and managed by a storage means (specific value management means) such as a RAM of the main control unit 10, but also notified to the player via a predetermined notification means.
For example, it is preferable to display "the number of remaining AT games" on the display 8. The "AT remaining number of games" displayed on the display 8 is stored and managed by a storage means such as a RAM of the sub-control unit 20.
Not limited to this, the “number of remaining AT games” may be displayed by 7-segment dots on the 7-segment display 14.

In the present embodiment, the specific value is the number of AT games, but the value is not limited to this as long as the AT state can be managed. Specific values can be set to the number of medals, the difference in medals (difference between inserted medals and paid out medals), the number of sets (number of rush stocks, number of special stocks), and the like.

Further, as described above, the method is not limited to the method of reducing the number of AT games (specific value) according to the progress of the game and continuing the AT state until a predetermined numerical value (zero) is reached, but also for the progress of the game. It is also possible to provide a counter (count value) that adds +1 (increment) accordingly, and to continue the AT state until the count value reaches the number of AT games.

Further, in the AT state, when a winning combination such as a rare role is won, a privilege advantageous to the player may be further given.
For example, in the AT state, when the player wins the lottery process for granting the privilege, the right to execute another game state in the advantageous game state (special stock described later) is given.

As described above, the slot machine 1 is configured to be able to control a plurality of RT states and AT states by operating the main control unit 10 as the game state control means.
Further, in the slot machine 1, in addition to such a configuration, the main control unit 10 has a condition establishment determination means, a privilege giving means, a reference value determination means, a winning combination determination means, a specific value management means, an increase number determination means, and an increase. By operating as a magnification determining means, a fixed increase number calculating means, and a specific value increasing means, and by operating the sub-control unit 20 as a specific effect executing means, the following characteristic game characteristics can be realized. It is configured in.

In the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the main control unit 10 cooperates with the sub control unit 20 to transition a plurality of types of gaming states (stages) as shown in FIG. Have.
Hereinafter, each gaming state and state transition will be described with reference to FIG.

The gaming state is roughly divided into a "non-bonus gaming state" and a "bonus gaming state", and the "non-bonus gaming state" is classified into a "normal gaming state" and an "advantageous gaming state".
The "normal gaming state" is an example of the first gaming state, and is a gaming state in which the game is performed while shifting to the "advantageous gaming state". In addition, the "normal game state" is divided into "normal stage", "field stage (hereinafter, field)" and "normal mission stage (hereinafter, normal mission)" in which the probability of transition to the "advantageous game state" is different. be able to.

The "advantageous gaming state" is an example of a specific gaming state or a second gaming state, and is a gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than the "normal gaming state", and is a "rush stage (hereinafter, also simply referred to as a rush)". ) ”,“ Episode stage (hereinafter referred to as episode) ”,“ Rush mission stage (hereinafter referred to as rush mission) ”,“ Attack stage (hereinafter referred to as attack) ”,“ Drive stage (hereinafter referred to as drive) ”and“ It can be divided into "ending stage (hereinafter referred to as ending)".
In addition, "rush mission", "attack", "drive", and "ending" are gaming states with high expectations for continuing the "advantageous gaming state", and the privilege (AT) that enables the continuation of the "advantageous gaming state". It is a so-called "additional specialization state" in which the number of games is added and the right to execute an advantageous game state (rush stock or special stock described later) is easily granted.
Further, the "bonus" is an example of a special gaming state, and can be classified into a "normal bonus", a "super bonus", and a "white bonus" as described above.

As a transition of the basic game state, from the initial game state "normal stage", field → normal mission → rush stage → episode / rush mission / attack / drive (episode) (arrow A → arrow B in FIG. 17) → Arrow C → Arrow F / Arrow I / Arrow H / Arrow G (arrow N)).

<Normal game state>
In the "normal game state", a plurality of internal states (low probability state, high probability state, ultra-high probability state) having different advantages in the "normal game state" are provided.
The initial value of this internal state is, for example, "when the game setting value of slot machine 1 is changed (after the power is turned on)" or "when defeated in the" battle game "held in the" normal mission "described later. Is decided.
When the game setting value is changed, the higher the set game setting value, the easier it is to determine the low probability mode <high probability mode <ultra-high probability mode (see FIG. 19).
Further, in the case of "when defeated in the battle game", when the set game setting value is odd (1, 3, 5), the ultra-high probability state is easily determined (see FIG. 20).

In addition, as for the internal state, a state transition lottery is performed at a predetermined opportunity during the "normal game state".
In this state transition lottery, a transition (promotion) from a low-probability state to a high-probability state is performed (promotion) on the condition that a small winning combination with a low winning frequency is established (see FIG. 23), and a small winning combination with a high winning frequency such as a replay or a bell is won. (See FIG. 25), the state shifts (falls) from the high-probability state to the low-probability state.
Further, the winning probability of AT winning differs depending on the internal state, and it is set so that it becomes easier to win in the order of low probability state <high probability state <ultra-high probability state. Further, in the case of an ultra-high probability state, if a rare role is won, the AT is set to be won with a 100% probability.
As described above, in the normal game state, the internal state is changed during the stay to prevent the normal game state from becoming monotonous and enhance the interest of the game.

(Normal stage)
The "normal stage" is a gaming state in which the player stays at the time of turning on the power accompanied by the operation of a predetermined initialization switch or the like, and is a gaming state in which most of the games in the slot machine 1 are occupied.
The entry into the "normal stage" was defeated in the "battle game" performed in the "normal mission" described later (arrow E in FIG. 17) and the bonus ended (arrow U in FIG. 17). Or, when the "advantageous game state" is completed (arrow W in FIG. 17), the game is entered.
Further, the end of the "normal stage" is triggered by winning the AT (arrows A and D in FIG. 17).

Since the "normal stage" basically stays at RT0 and 1 and is in a non-AT state, it is a gaming state that is disadvantageous to the player in which the number of medals held by the player gradually decreases as the game is continued.
Therefore, in the "normal stage", the AT transition lottery process related to the transition to the AT state is performed.

Specifically, the AT transition lottery process is performed according to the game set value and the current internal state, triggered by winning a predetermined winning combination (AT transition winning combination).
For example, in slot machine 1 with a game setting value of "1", when "weak cherry" is won in a low probability state, AT is won with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 21), and "weak" is won in a high probability state. When you win the "cherry", you win the AT with a probability of 13/255 (see Fig. 24), and when you win the "weak cherry" in the ultra-high probability state, you win the AT with a probability of 255/255. (See FIG. 26).
Then, when the AT is won, the game state (stage) that becomes the AT state of the transition destination is determined.
Specifically, the transition destination is determined from the gaming states of the "field", "rush stage", and "episode" described later.
For example, when the game setting value is "1", "field" is selected with a probability of 229/255, "rush stage" is selected with a probability of 20/255, and "episode" is selected with a probability of 6/255. (See FIG. 22).
In the following description, the right acquired by winning the AT in the AT transition lottery process is referred to as "first hit stock".

(field)
The “field” is an example of a special game state, which is a game state in which at least 10 games are continued, stays at RT0 to 3, and is in an AT state.
The entry into the "field" is triggered by the fact that the AT is won in the "normal stage" and the "field" is decided as the transition destination (arrow A in FIG. 17).
Further, the end of the "field" is triggered by the transition to the "normal mission" (arrow B in FIG. 17) and the winning of the bonus combination (arrow S in FIG. 17).

In the "field", when the transition to the "advantageous game state" is decided via the "normal mission" (hereinafter, also referred to as the first hit), the initial value of the number of AT games in the "rush stage" after the transition (hereinafter, also referred to as the first hit). , The number of AT initial games) is increased, and the game for acquiring the increased number (hereinafter referred to as the number of additional initial games) is executed.
That is, the number of additional initial games acquired in the "field" can be added to the number of AT initial games in the "rush stage" (means for increasing a specific value) to increase the number of games that can stay in an advantageous gaming state. ing.

In addition, the number of additional initial games may increase depending on the additional magnification determined at the time of entering the "field".
Therefore, the number of games calculated by "the number of additional initial games" x "additional magnification" is added to the number of AT initial games in the "rush stage".
Therefore, it is advantageous for the player to acquire a large number of additional initial games in the "field" and to determine a large additional magnification when the "rush stage" is entered.

The number of additional initial games is determined by lottery according to the winning combination won in this game (means for determining the number of increase).
For example, if the "weak cherry" is won in the first game after entering the "field", the probability of "50G" is won with a probability of 64/255, and the probability of "100G" is won with a probability of 8/255. "200G" is won (decided) with a probability of / 255, and "300G" is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 30).
The number of additional initial games to be determined is provided with a plurality of games. Basically, the lower the winning probability is, the larger the number of games is determined.

The additional magnification is determined by lottery when entering the "field" (increasing magnification determination means). For example, the magnification "1" is won with a probability of 229/255, and the magnification "2" is won with a probability of 20/255. However, the magnification "3" is won with a probability of 4/255, and the magnification "4" is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 28).
In addition, the additional magnification does not fluctuate during a predetermined period.
In other words, the additional multiplier determined at the time of entering the "field" does not change during the period from the "field" to the transition to another gaming state, and with respect to all the "additional initial game numbers" determined during this period The same additional magnification is applied.

The "additional confirmed initial number of games" (fixed increase number) calculated by integrating the "additional initial number of games" and the "additional magnification" determined in this way is determined by the display 8 and the like at the determined timing. The player is notified through the notification means (fixed increase number notification means).
For example, when the addition magnification is determined to be "4" and the number of addition initial games is determined to be "10G", "40G" is calculated as the number of addition confirmation initial games (determined increase number calculation means), and this "40G" is displayed. The player is notified through the notification means such as 8.

In addition, the number of additional confirmed initial games is also notified on the 7-segment display 14.
In the "field", the number of AT initial games of the "rush stage" after the transition is displayed on the 7-segment display 14, and the number of AT initial games displayed is added to the number of AT initial games acquired in the "field". The value obtained by adding the initial number of games is updated and displayed on the 7-segment display 14.

Next, with reference to FIG. 77, the effect mode in the "field" will be described.
When the transition to the "field" is determined in the "normal stage", for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, as shown in FIG. 77 (a), a screen for notifying the entry into the "field" is displayed. It is displayed on the display 8.
Subsequently, the display 8 displays an effect display screen on which an image of the enemy character is displayed (see FIG. 77 (b)), and the effect display starts.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 77 (d), the 7-segment display 14 displays a predetermined number of AT initial games (for example, 100).
When the production display is started, as a result of the lottery to acquire the number of additional initial games, when the number of additional initial games is acquired, the image / sound that attacks the enemy character is output, and the image / sound that further defeats the enemy character Is output.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 77 (c), the number of additional confirmed initial games (+ 40G) is displayed on the display 8.

Here, the number of additional confirmed initial games displayed is a numerical value obtained by integrating the number of additional initial games and the additional magnification, for example, the number of additional initial games is "10G" and the additional magnification is "4". If determined, "40G" is displayed.
Further, at this time, as shown in FIG. 77 (e), the value obtained by adding the number of confirmed initial games (40G) to the number of AT initial games (100G) already displayed on the 7-segment display 14 is added. (140) is updated and displayed.
After that, during the stay in the "field", the effects of FIGS. 77 (b) and 77 (c) are repeatedly displayed according to the result of the lottery for acquiring the number of additional initial games performed in each game, and the additional initial game is confirmed. You can increase the number.

In this way, although the number of additional confirmed initial games acquired in the "field" is notified, the additional magnification is not notified.
This is because the additional magnification can be estimated by the player from the notified additional fixed initial number of games by not notifying the additional magnification.
For example, if "600" is displayed as the initial number of additional games that are confirmed by winning the "strong cherry", the maximum number of additional initial games that are determined when the "strong cherry" is won is "300" (Fig.). 30 and FIG. 31), "1" is denied as an additional magnification.
Further, when "600" is divided by "4", it becomes "150", but since there is no value of "150" as the number of additional initial games (see FIGS. 30 and 31), the addition magnification is "4". Is also denied.
On the other hand, when "600" is divided by "2" (first magnification), it becomes "300" (second increase number), and when "600" is divided by "3" (second magnification), it becomes "300". It becomes "200" (first increase number), and the values of "300" (second increase number) and "200" (first increase number) are calculated as the number of additional initial games, and this "300" (second increase number) is calculated. Since the values (number) and "200" (first increase number) exist as the number of additional initial games determined when the "strong cherry" is won (see FIGS. 30 and 31), the additional magnification is "2" (see FIGS. 30 and 31). It can be inferred that it is (first magnification) or "3" (second magnification).
Further, when "40" or "1200" is displayed as the initial number of additional confirmation games, "4" is confirmed as the additional magnification. Therefore, if the player knows the specifications of the gaming machine, the additional magnification is added. It also has the playability of being able to identify.
In this way, although it is difficult for the player to clearly specify the additional magnification, the game property of estimating the current additional magnification from the notified number of additional confirmation initial games is born, and the interest of the game is improved. Will be possible.

In the above description, in the "field", the number of AT initial games of the "rush stage" after the transition is first displayed on the 7-segment display 14 (see FIG. 77 (d)), and the display is displayed. An example is shown in which the display is updated by adding the number of additional initial games acquired in the "field" to the number of AT initial games (see FIG. 77 (e)). Inside, on the 7-segment display 14, the number of additional initial games acquired in the "field" is accumulated and displayed, and the display is updated by adding the number of AT initial games in the "rush stage" at the end of the "field". You may.
In this case, when adding the number of AT initial games of the "rush stage" at the end of the "field", for example, the notification may be made at the timing when the effect button is operated.

Further, in the "field", a lottery for determining the "enemy level" (reference value) of the "battle game" performed in the "normal mission" described later is performed (reference value determination means).
The enemy level indicates the level (strength) of the enemy character selected in the "battle game", and is set in, for example, five stages. The larger the determined enemy level value, the higher the expectation of transition to the "advantageous gaming state".
Specifically, the larger the enemy level value, the harder it is to win. For example, the enemy level "1" is won with a probability of 247/255, and the enemy level "2" is won with a probability of 4/255. However, there is a 2/255 chance that the enemy level "3" will be won, a 1/255 chance that the enemy level "4" will be won, and a 1/255 chance that the enemy level "5" will be won. (See FIG. 27).

Furthermore, in the "field", a level-up lottery is held to raise the value of the enemy level determined at the time of entering the "field".
For example, if the current enemy level is "1", there is a 237/255 chance of maintaining the enemy level "1", a 17/255 chance of winning the enemy level "2", and a 1/255 chance of winning the enemy. Level "3" is to be won (see FIG. 29).

(Normal mission)
The "normal mission" is an example of a predetermined game state, and is a game state configured as a series of games with the "field", and basically stays at RT2, 3 and is in the AT state. This is the so-called ART state.
The entry into the "normal mission" is triggered by the completion of the "field" (arrow B in FIG. 17).
In addition, the end of the "normal mission" means that the "battle game" performed in the "normal mission" has ended (arrows C and E in FIG. 17) and that the bonus role has been won (in FIG. 17). It ends with the arrow S).

In the "normal mission", a "battle game" (specific effect) that shifts to the "advantageous game state" is performed for a predetermined number of games (specific effect execution means). By "winning (achieving a mission)" in this "battle game", a predetermined number of rights (rush stock) for executing the "advantageous gaming state" are granted (see FIG. 35). This rush stock has a right to store a plurality of rush stocks instead of one, and can be stored (hereinafter, also referred to as possession) in a storage means such as a RAM provided in the main control unit 10.
In addition, by winning the "battle game", the number of additional confirmed initial games acquired in the "field" can be won, and the number of AT initial games in the "rush stage" after the transition can be used.

Whether or not the player "wins" in the "battle game" is determined by the operation of the slot machine game performed by the player.
Furthermore, the "battle game" does not end mechanically when a predetermined number of games are exhausted, but does not end until the player finally wins or loses the "battle game". ..
For this reason, the player can obtain the feeling that the success or failure of the acquisition of the execution right of the "advantageous game state" is determined not by the mere lottery result but by the operation / judgment of the slot machine game performed by himself / herself. , You will be able to enjoy the "battle game" production without losing your expectations, excitement, and interest until the final production is completed.

Next, with reference to FIG. 78, the production mode of the “battle game” performed during the “normal mission” will be described.
After the end of the "field", for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, as shown in FIG. 78 (a), the entry into the "normal mission" (battle game) is notified and the enemy characters to be opposed are displayed. The screen to be displayed is displayed on the display 8.
Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 78B, the display 8 displays the basic screen of the effect display, and the effect display starts.
On this screen, an image in which the enemy character and the ally character face each other and an indicator indicating the "HP" of the enemy character are displayed in the vicinity of the enemy character.
In addition, an indicator showing the enemy level of the enemy character and a text explanation showing the basic outline of the "battle game" are displayed ("Attack with a small role! Defeated in 4 consecutive replays"). The explanation display is not limited to this, and of course, other explanations such as "Win 5 consecutive attacks!" Can be given in addition to or instead of the character explanation shown in FIG. 78 (b). Is.
Further, the speaker 9 outputs a sound effect, a melody sound, or the like indicating that the battle mission has started.

When the production display is started, an image / sound that changes the attack according to the subtraction value (hereinafter referred to as the number of enemy damages) determined according to the winning combination of the game from the ally character to the enemy character is output, and at the same time, Images and sounds that damage enemy characters are output.
Furthermore, the number of damages received by the enemy character is displayed (for example, "1DAMEGE"), and the decrease in the "HP" of the enemy character by the number of damages is displayed by the reduction of the indicator scale.

When a small role (rare role) is won, the number of enemy damage is determined according to the type of winning role, for example, if the winning role is "weak cherry" or "watermelon". In the case of a strong bell, the number of enemy damages "2, 3, 5, 10" is determined, in the case of "strong cherry", the number of enemy damages "5, 10" is determined, and in the case of a strong bell, the number of enemy damages "10". Is determined (see FIG. 34).
In addition, when a small role (other than a rare role) is won, the number of enemy damage is determined according to the enemy level determined in the "field". For example, the enemy level is "1". In that case, the enemy damage number "1" is determined with a probability of 220/255, the enemy damage number "2" is determined with a probability of 20/255, and the enemy damage number "3" is determined with a probability of 12/255. Then, the enemy damage number "1" is determined with a probability of 2/255, and the enemy damage number "10" is determined with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 33).
In addition, if the small role is not won (when the replay role or "missing" is won), the number of enemy damages is not determined.
In this way, since the number of enemy damages determined according to the winning combination is different, the player is expected to win the small role, and the player expects to win the small role with more damage. And proceed with the game.

Then, in the "battle game", while repeating the battle with the enemy character, the enemy character is defeated or defeated when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
Specifically, the enemy character is defeated on condition that the "HP" of the enemy character becomes zero, or that a small role or special replay 1 is won for five consecutive games.
When the enemy character is defeated, the image / sound of the ally character defeating the enemy character and the image / sound indicating the victory are output as shown in FIG. 78 (c).
As a result, the "rush stage" will be started after the production display of the "battle game" is completed.
In this way, by winning the small role or special replay 1 in succession (5 times), the enemy character can be defeated, so that the player can greatly arouse the expectation and excitement for the continuous winning of the small role. As a result, the fun of "battle games" will be increased.

On the other hand, it is designed to be defeated by the enemy character on condition that the replay (other than special replay 1) is won for 4 games in a row.
When the enemy character is defeated, the image / sound of the ally character being defeated by the enemy character, the image / sound indicating that the ally character is defeated, and the like are output as shown in FIG. 78 (d).
As a result, the "normal stage" is started after the production display of the "battle game" is completed.
In addition, when the game is defeated in the "battle game", the "number of additional confirmed initial games" acquired in the "field" is initialized (zero).
Further, the "AT initial number of games" of the "rush stage" is also initialized and determined again by lottery (see FIG. 18).

In addition, the initial value of the enemy character's "HP" in the "battle game" is determined at the time of entering the "normal mission", and is determined according to the enemy level determined in the "field".
For example, if the enemy level is "1", the HP is "10", if the enemy level is "2", the HP is "8", if the enemy level is "3", the HP is "7", and the enemy level is "4". In the case of, HP "5", when the enemy level is "5", HP "3", etc., the smaller the enemy level value, the larger the value "HP" is assigned (see FIG. 32). ).

In the above description, the "battle game" is realized by providing "HP" only for the enemy character, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, "HP" may be set for the ally character.
In this case, the "HP" which is the initial value of the ally character is determined, and the indicator indicating the "HP" of the ally character is displayed in the vicinity of the ally character. Then, the "HP" of the ally character may be deducted by "1" when the "missing" or replay (other than the special replay 1) is won in the game during the "battle game".
As a result, the game in which the "HP" of the enemy character or the ally character becomes zero first is the "defeat".

Also, the "HP" of the ally character may be restored during the "battle game".
For example, in the game during the "battle game", when a predetermined small role is won, the "HP" of the ally character may be returned to the initial value.
In this case, for example, by setting the initial value of the ally character's "HP" to "4", the ally character will win four consecutive replays (other than special replay 1) during the "battle game". "HP" becomes zero, while if you win a small role even once during that time, "HP" will be returned to the initial value, and the HP of the ally character will recover to "4".
As a result, the player will not be defeated in the "battle game" unless he or she wins the "miss" or replay (other than special replay 1) four times in a row during the "battle game". You will be able to enjoy the "battle game" until you do.

In addition to the above, for example, when a specific small role is won, it is possible to return the "HP" of the enemy character to the initial value.
Also, for example, the number of damages is added (incremented) as "HP" associated with the enemy character and the ally character, and when the number of damages reaches a predetermined value, the "battle game" is terminated. You can also do it.

<Advantageous game state>
The "advantageous gaming state" can be mutually shifted between the "normal gaming state" and the "bonus gaming state" based on a predetermined opportunity (arrow C, arrow D, arrow S, arrow T in FIG. 17). , Arrow W), basically staying at RT3 and in the AT state, so-called ART state.
However, if you miss the push order of the replay role specified in the push order (shift to RT1) during the "advantageous game state", or after the bonus ends (shift to RT0) if you win the bonus, you will stay outside RT3 To do.

Further, in the "advantageous gaming state", a plurality of internal modes (low probability mode, high probability mode, ultra-high probability mode A, ultra-high probability mode B) having different advantages in the "advantageous gaming state" are provided. ..
This internal mode is determined at the time of entering the "advantageous gaming state". For example, the "normal mode" is won with a probability of 225/255, the "high probability mode" is won with a probability of 13/255, and 15 / The "ultra-high probability mode A" is won with a probability of 255, and the "ultra-high probability mode B" is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 42).
In addition, in the internal mode, a transition lottery is performed at a predetermined opportunity during the "advantageous game state". The transition (see FIG. 38) is performed, and the transition from the high-probability mode to the low-probability mode is made on condition that a small winning combination such as a replay or a bell is won frequently (see FIG. 41).
Further, while staying in the "advantageous gaming state", it is preferable to turn on and blink the advantageous state lamp 13 controlled by the main control unit 10.

(Rush stage)
The "rush stage" is a gaming state in which the player first stays after entering the "advantageous gaming state".
In the "rush stage", the number of AT games continues as long as the number of AT games remains, and this number of AT games is determined before entering the "advantageous game state" when entering via the "field" and "normal mission". It is the sum of the number of AT initial games in the "rush stage" and the number of additional confirmed initial games acquired in the "field" (means for increasing the specific value).
In addition, even if the number of AT games becomes "zero", if the rush stock remains, it will continue (consecutive villas). In this case, the number of stored rush stocks is subtracted by 1, and "30G" is newly added to the number of AT games to start the "rush stage" game.
On the other hand, if these conditions are not satisfied, the state shifts to the "normal game state" (arrow W in FIG. 17).

Further, in the "rush stage", a lottery for shifting to another gaming state (stage) of the "advantageous gaming state" is performed.
Specifically, a lottery is performed according to the current internal mode, triggered by winning a predetermined winning combination.
For example, if you win the "weak cherry", you will win with a probability of 6/255 when you stay in the low probability mode, and you will win with a probability of 26/255 when you stay in the high probability mode, and you will win in the ultra-high probability mode A. It is set to win with a probability of 255/255 when staying in, and to win with a probability of 255/255 when staying in the ultra-high probability mode B (see FIG. 36).
That is, it is set so that it is easy to win in the order of low probability mode <high probability mode <ultra high probability mode A <ultra high probability mode B, and in the case of ultra high probability mode, 100 if a rare role is won. The transition is set to be confirmed with a probability of%.

Further, when the transition lottery is won, a lottery for determining the game state (stage) of the transition destination is performed.
For example, when staying in low probability mode, there is a 10/255 chance that "episode" will be selected, a 228/255 chance that "rush mission" will be selected, and a 16/255 chance that "attack" will be selected. "Drive" is selected with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 37). In addition, when staying in the ultra-high probability modes A and B, only "rush mission" and "attack" are shifted.
The right granted by winning in this transition lottery is called "special stock". This special stock has a right to store a plurality of stocks instead of one, and can be stored (hereinafter, also referred to as possession) in a storage means such as a RAM provided in the main control unit 10.

(episode)
The "episode" is a game state in which the game shifts from the "rush stage" (arrow F in FIG. 17) and continues for 30 games, and after 30 games, the game shifts to the "rush stage" (in FIG. 17). Arrow M) or each additional specialization state ((arrow J, arrow K, arrow L in FIG. 17)).
During the "episode", the game progresses while a series of stories (episodes of each character) are executed by the image production (hereinafter, episode production) on the display 8.
For example, "rush episode", "mission episode", "attack episode", and "drive episode" are provided for the episode production, and the type of episode production to be executed is decided by lottery before entering the "episode". Has been done.
For example, there is a 16/255 chance that "rush episode" will be selected, a 190/255 chance that "mission episode" will be selected, a 39/255 chance that "attack episode" will be selected, and a 10/255 chance that "attack episode" will be selected. "Drive episode" is now selected (see Figure 39).

Then, the determined episode production is executed over 30 games, and after the 30 games are completed, the state shifts to each additional specialization state corresponding to the episode production.
Specifically, in the case of "rush episode", it shifts to "rush stage", in the case of "mission episode", it shifts to "rush mission", in the case of "attack episode", it shifts to "attack", and "drive". In the case of "episode", it is supposed to move to "drive".

Further, in the "episode", the number of games may be added (increased) after the end of 30 games.
Specifically, the "number of additional games" is determined according to the episode production before entering the "episode".
For example, when the determined episode production is "drive episode", "0G" is won with a probability of 204/255, "50G" is won with a probability of 47/255, and "50G" is won with a probability of 4/255. "100G" is to be won (see FIG. 40). Further, when the determined episode production is "mission episode" or "attack episode", the addition of 50 G or more is confirmed.
The determined number of additional games is displayed in the final game (30th game) of the "episode".

(Rush mission)
The "rush mission" shifts from the "rush stage" or "episode" (arrows I and L in FIG. 17), and like the above-mentioned "normal mission", the "battle game" (battle game) for a predetermined number of games. Specific effect) is performed (specific effect execution means).
Therefore, although the production mode is almost the same as that of the "normal mission", it differs in the following points.
In the "rush mission", the "enemy level" of the "battle game" is determined according to the current internal mode (reference value determination means).
For example, in the low probability mode, there is a 127/255 chance of winning the enemy level "1", a 77/255 chance of winning the enemy level "2", and a 38/255 chance of winning the enemy level "3". , With a probability of 9/255 winning the enemy level "4", and with a probability of 4/255 winning the enemy level "5" (see FIG. 45).
Further, it is set so that the higher enemy level is determined in the order of low probability mode <high probability mode <ultra high probability mode A <ultra high probability mode B.
Further, in the case of the ultra-high probability mode B, only the enemy levels of "3" to "5" are set to be determined, and the expectation of winning in the "battle game" is set to be the highest.

In the "rush mission", if you win in the "battle game", you will be given rush stock that can execute the "rush stage" in the same way as in the "normal mission".
In addition to this, a lottery for executing the "battle game" again (hereinafter referred to as a continuous battle) is being held.
Specifically, a series of battle lottery will be held based on the current internal mode and the enemy level when winning the "battle game".
For example, when the enemy level when winning in the "battle game" is "1", the probability of winning is 51/255 in the low probability mode, and the probability of winning is 85/255 in the high probability mode. In the case of the ultra-high probability mode A, it is set to win with a probability of 255/255, and in the case of the ultra-high probability mode B, it is set to win with a probability of 255/255 (see FIG. 46).
That is, it is set so that the continuous battle is easily determined in the order of low probability mode <high probability mode <ultra high probability mode A <ultra high probability mode B, and in the case of ultra high probability modes A and B, the probability is 100%. It is supposed to fight in a row.
Also, when the enemy level when winning in the "battle game" is "5", there is a 100% chance of continuous battle regardless of the current internal mode.

Next, with reference to FIG. 79, the production mode of the “battle game” performed during the “rush mission” will be described.
After shifting to the "rush mission", for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, as shown in FIG. 79 (a), a screen notifying the entry into the "rush mission" (battle game) is displayed on the display 8. Is displayed.
Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 79B, the display 8 displays the basic screen of the effect display, and the effect display starts.
On this screen, the display is almost the same as during the above-mentioned "normal mission", and the difference is that information about the rush, such as "AT remaining games", "AT acquisition number", and "battle count", is displayed at the top of the screen. Is displayed.
The "AT remaining number of games" is not subtracted during the "rush mission". It should be noted that the "number of remaining AT games" is not subtracted not only during the "rush mission" but also in the game state other than the "rush stage".

When the production display is started, the image / sound that makes the attack corresponding to the number of enemy damage determined according to the winning combination of the game from the ally character to the enemy character is output as in the "normal mission". At the same time, an image / sound that damages the enemy character is output.
Then, while repeating the battle with the enemy character, the enemy character is defeated or defeated when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
The conditions for winning and defeating are the same as for the "normal mission". If defeated, the image / sound of the ally character being defeated by the enemy character and the defeat as shown in Fig. 79 (e). The image, sound, etc. to be represented are output.
As a result, the "rush stage" will be started after the production display of the "battle game" is completed.

On the other hand, when the player wins, the image / sound of the ally character defeating the enemy character and the image / sound indicating the victory are output as shown in FIG. 79 (c).
Furthermore, in the "battle game" during the "rush mission", if you win the battle, you may be able to execute the "battle game" again (continuous battle), and if this "continuous battle" is decided, the figure As shown in 79 (d), the opposing enemy character is selected again, and the battle effect display with this enemy character is started.
On the other hand, if a series of battles is not decided, the "rush stage" will start.
In this way, the "battle game" performed during the "rush mission" is different from the "battle game" performed during the "normal mission" in that it has a villa-like character, and wins the battle. Even if the rush stock is acquired, the "battle game" can be executed again, so that it is possible to acquire a large amount of rush stock.

(attack)
The "attack" is a gaming state in which the game shifts from the "rush stage" or the "episode" (arrows H and K in FIG. 17) and six games are executed as one set.
In "Attack", a continuous lottery is held in the sixth game, which is the final game of one set.
Specifically, the continuation rate is determined when the "attack" is entered. For example, the continuation rate "0.39%" is determined with a probability of 247/255, and the continuation rate "80%" is determined with a probability of 8/255. Is set to determine (see FIG. 47).
Then, based on the determined continuation rate, a continuous lottery of "attack" is performed in one set of final games.
If the continuous lottery is won, the "attack" continues again with 6 games as one set, and if the continuous lottery is not won, the game shifts to the "rush stage" (arrow O in FIG. 17).

Further, in the "attack", a lottery for determining the "number of additional games" for increasing the number of AT games in the "rush stage" is performed (means for determining the number of additional games).
That is, since the "number of additional games" acquired in "attack" is added to the number of AT games in "rush stage", it is advantageous for the player to acquire a large number of "additional games" during "attack". It becomes.
Specifically, the "number of additional games" is determined according to the winning combination won in the internal lottery process.
For example, when "weak cherry" is won, "20G" is won with a probability of 207/255, "30G" is won with a probability of 24/255, and "50G" is won with a probability of 12/255. However, "100G" is won with a probability of 6/255, "200G" is won with a probability of 4/255, and "300G" is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 48). ..
This "number of additional games" is provided with a plurality of games, and basically, the lower the winning probability, the larger the number of games is determined.
In addition, not only the rare role is won, but also the number of additional games of "5G" or more is always won even if the "missing", replay role, or bell role is won. That is, during the "attack", the "number of additional games" of "5G" or more can be obtained for each game.
Furthermore, since there is a possibility that the "attack" will continue (loop), it is a gaming state in which a large number of "additional games" can be obtained.

The "number of additional games" acquired during the "attack" is notified to the player at the acquired timing through a notification means such as a display 8.
In this case, a lottery is performed as to whether or not the acquired "number of additional games" is divided and displayed.
Specifically, it is set so that "division" or "non-division" is determined with a probability of about 1/2 (see FIG. 49), and based on this determination, the "number of additional games" is displayed on the display device. Notify at 8.
For example, if the "additional number of games" of "20G" is acquired during "attack", and when the "division" is won, both "10G" and "10G" obtained by dividing "20G" are displayed at the same time.
As a result, it is possible to give the player the impression that he / she has won the lottery of "the number of additional games" twice.
The probability that "division" or "non-division" is determined is not limited to this, and can be set arbitrarily. For example, it is possible to make the probability different depending on the game setting value and the winning combination.

(drive)
The "drive" is a gaming state in which the game shifts from the "rush stage" or the "episode" (arrows G and J in FIG. 17) and five games are executed as one set.
"In the drive, a continuous lottery is held for the start game of the 4th set after the 3 sets are completed (15th game).
Specifically, it is set so that "continuation" is determined with a probability of 1/2 (see FIG. 50).
If the continuous lottery is won, the "drive" will continue again with 5 games as one set.
Further, in the "drive", a lottery for determining the "number of additional games" for increasing the number of AT games in the "rush stage" is performed (means for determining the number of additional games during the drive).
Specifically, the "number of additional games" is determined according to the winning combination won in the internal lottery process.
For example, when "weak cherry" is won, "10G" is won with a probability of 128/255, "20G" is won with a probability of 111/255, and "30G" is won with a probability of 8/255. However, "50G" is won with a probability of 4/255, "100G" is won with a probability of 2/255, and "200G" and "300G" are won with a probability of 1/255 ( (See FIG. 51).
This "number of additional games" is provided with a plurality of games, and basically, the lower the winning probability, the larger the number of games is determined.

Furthermore, in "Drive", if the lottery for "Additional games" is won, it will be changed to "Continue" even if it is determined to be "Discontinued" in the continuous lottery for "Drive". ing.
For example, even if it is determined to be "discontinued" in the continuous lottery executed in the start game of the 4th set, the number of additional games drawn between the 1st game and the 5th game of the 4th set. If you can win the lottery, it will be changed to "Continue".
Therefore, the player can enjoy the game without losing expectation, excitement, and interest until the final game.
On the other hand, if it is determined to be "discontinued" in the continuous lottery of "drive" and the lottery for the number of games added to "drive" is not won, the game shifts to the "rush stage" after the fifth game is completed ( Arrow R in FIG. 17).

(ending)
The "ending" is a gaming state in which "drive" continues for 20 sets or more and shifts when "drive" is not continued (arrow N in FIG. 17) and continues for 100 games.
In the "ending", a lottery for shifting to another gaming state (stage) of the "advantageous gaming state" is performed. Specifically, the lottery process is performed according to the internal mode (low probability mode) when the predetermined winning combination is won (see FIG. 36).
Then, when the transition lottery is won, the game state (stage) of the transition destination is determined in the final game (100th game) of the "ending" (see FIG. 37).
In addition, after 100 games are completed, the game shifts to the "rush stage" (arrow Q in FIG. 17), and if the transition lottery is won during the "ending", the game status (stage) is controlled to shift to each game state (stage). The arrow.

(Bonus)
The "bonus" is a gaming state that is advantageous to a player who wins a small role such as a bell role with a high probability, and rushes in by stopping the combination of bonus symbols corresponding to the bonus role (arrow S in FIG. 17). It ends when the predetermined number of payouts is exceeded (arrows T and U in FIG. 17).
Further, the "bonus" of the present embodiment is a variable bonus in which the winning probability fluctuates according to the game setting value, and as the types of bonuses, a normal bonus, a super bonus, and a white bonus are provided.
Not limited to this, a "fixed bonus" may be provided in which the winning probability does not change according to the game setting value.

(Normal bonus)
The "normal bonus" is won with a probability of about 1/1000 and ends when more than 162 medals are paid out.
During the bonus, the role of Bell and the "missing" are won, and if the "missing" is won, the "number of additional games" to increase the number of AT games in the "field" or "rush stage" that shifts after the bonus ends. A lottery will be held to determine.
For example, there is a 200/255 chance that "5G" will be won, a 40/255 chance that "10G" will be won, a 10/255 chance that "20G" will be won, and a 2/255 chance that "30G" will be won. Is won, "50G" is won with a probability of 2/255, and "100G" is won with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 54).

After the end of the bonus, the transfer destination will be different depending on the game state (stage) where you were staying at the time of winning the bonus.
For example, if you are staying in the "normal stage", you will move to the "field" after the bonus ends, and if you are staying in the "field" or "normal mission", you will move to the "rush stage" after the bonus ends. If the player shifts and stays in the "advantageous game state" including the "rush stage", the player shifts to the game state (stage) in which the bonus ends.

(Super bonus)
The "super bonus" is won with a probability of about 1/3000, ends when more than 306 medals are paid out, and shifts to the "rush stage" after the bonus ends.
During the bonus, "missing" (4th winning combination), "S red 7 replay" (1st winning combination), "W red" that stops in a combination of symbols (normal stop display mode) in which the game medium is not paid out "7 Replay" (2nd winning combination), "Gase Red 7 Replay", Bell role, etc. will be won.

If you win "S Red 7 Replay" or "W Red 7 Replay" during the bonus, the combination of symbols corresponding to each winning combination (for example, S Red 7 Replay: Watermelon / Red 7 / Red Blank, W Red 7 replays: red blank, red 7, red blank) can be aligned on the winning line, and apparently the "red 7" symbol or the "red blank" symbol will be aligned on the specified line (hereinafter, red 7 alignment). It becomes a display mode.
For example, when "S Red 7 Replay" is won, by operating the stop button 5 aiming at the "Red 7" symbol on each reel, the "Red 7" symbol or the "Red blank" symbol is displayed on one line. Stop display (hereinafter, "S red 7 aligned") is displayed).
If you win the "W Red 7 Replay", you can operate the stop button 5 aiming at the "Red 7" symbol on each reel, and the "Red 7" symbol will be on the two lines, the middle line and the downward-sloping line. Alternatively, the "red blank" symbol is stopped and displayed (hereinafter, "W red 7 alignment").

In addition, if "S Red 7 Replay" or "W Red 7 Replay" is won, rush stock may be given as a privilege.
Specifically, the number of rush stocks to be given is determined for each winning combination. For example, in the case of "S Red 7 Replay", the number of rush stocks "1" is won with a probability of 252/255, and 3 With a probability of / 255, the number of rush stocks "2" will be won, while in the case of "W Red 7 Replay", there is a probability of 255/255 (100%) that the number of rush stocks will be "7". You will be elected (see Fig. 55).
That is, the player can recognize that the expectation of acquiring a large number of rush stocks is high if the "W red 7 match" is stopped and displayed.

Next, with reference to FIG. 80, the effect mode and the stop display mode of the symbol when the "S red 7 replay" and the "W red 7 replay" are won will be described.
At the time of winning "S Red 7 Replay" or "W Red 7 Replay", for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, "Aim for Red 7 !!" as shown in FIG. 80 (a) is pressed. An effect display prompting the operation is displayed.

Then, when the stop button 5 is operated aiming at the "red 7" symbol on the middle reel 41b, the "red 7" symbol is stopped and displayed (fixed stop display mode) in the middle of the middle reel 41b.
At this time, if the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are in a variable display state and the "S red 7 alignment" can be stopped by winning the "S red 7 replay", it is shown in FIG. 80 (b). As described above, "certainty" (specific effect) as a special sound may be output (specific effect execution means).
Subsequently, by operating the stop button 5 aiming at the "red 7" symbol on the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c, "S red 7 alignment" is stopped and displayed as shown in FIG. 80 (c).
On the other hand, when the "W Red 7 Alignment" can be stopped by winning the "W Red 7 Replay", the special sound is not output as shown in FIG. 80 (d).
Subsequently, by operating the stop button 5 aiming at the "red 7" symbol on the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c, "W red 7 alignment" is stopped and displayed as shown in FIG. 80 (e).

During the bonus, except when "S Red 7 Replay", "W Red 7 Replay" and "Gase Red 7 Replay" are won, the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are in variable display, and the middle reel 41b Since the reel is controlled so that the "red 7" symbol is not stopped and displayed in the middle row, the "red 7" symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle row of the middle reel 41b while the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are variable display. And, it is possible to give a feeling of expectation that "S red 7 alignment" and "W red 7 alignment" may be stopped and displayed.

Also, as mentioned above, although it is more difficult to win the "W Red 7 Match" than the "S Red 7 Match", the "W Red 7 Match" is better than the "S Red 7 Match". Since it is easy to determine the number of rush stocks, the player will play the game while expecting that "W red 7 match" is stopped and displayed rather than "S red 7 match". ..
For this reason, when the player is aiming for "Red 7 Alignment", if the player stops from the middle reel 41b, the "S Red 7 Alignment", which is easy to win, will be stopped more often. ”) Is easy to output, but in rare cases, by giving the player a sense of discomfort that the special voice is not output, the stop display of“ W Red 7 Alignment ”is displayed, that is, a large amount of rush stock is acquired. It can be suggested that.
In the present embodiment, the case where "Ikki" is output from the speaker 9 as a special sound has been described, but the output is not limited to "Ikki" as long as it can be recognized by the player.
Further, although the special sound is output, the present invention is not limited to this, and light emission by the lamp 11, notification by the effect image by the display 8, and reel effect (freeze effect, etc.) may be used.

In addition, during the bonus, there is a case where the "S Red 7 Replay" and the "W Red 7 Replay" are won as the "Gase Red 7 Replay" which is provided as a Gase appearance role.
If you win the "Gase Red 7 Replay", you can stop "Bell / Red 7 / Bell / Red Blank" on the winning line. That is, only on the left reel 41a, a symbol different from "S red 7 replay" or "W red 7 replay" is stopped and displayed, so-called "gase" is stopped and displayed.
From this, when "Gase Red 7 Replay" is won, "Aim for Red 7 !!" etc. on the display 8 as in the case of winning "S Red 7 Replay" and "W Red 7 Replay". When the player first operates the stop button 5 aiming at the "red 7" symbol on the middle reel 41b, the "red 7" symbol can be stopped and displayed in the middle row. Since no special voice (“Ichiseki”) is output, it is possible to give the player the impression that he / she has won the “W Red 7 Replay”.

In addition, if you win the "Gase Red 7 Replay", you may display an effect such as "Reverse push !!", and the right stop button 5c and the middle stop button 5b when you operate with "Reverse push". Since "red blank" and "red 7" are stopped on the right reel 41c and the middle reel 41b until the operation of, if the stop operation is performed according to the notification, "S red 7 replay" or "S red 7 replay" or It is possible to give the player the impression that he has won the "W Red 7 Replay".
In this way, it is possible to enhance the interest in the bonus by executing the Gase effect using "Gase Red 7 Replay".

In addition, if the player wins the "missing", a lottery is held to determine the "number of additional games" for increasing the number of AT games in the "rush stage" that shifts after the bonus ends.
For example, there is a 128/255 chance that "5G" will be won, an 83/255 chance that "10G" will be won, a 23/255 chance that "20G" will be won, and a 6/255 chance that "30G" will be won. Is won, "50G" is won with a probability of 4/255, and "100G" is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 56).

(White bonus)
The "white bonus" is won with a probability of about 1/2000 and ends when more than 216 medals are paid out.
During the bonus, the role of Bell, "S Red 7 Replay", "W Red 7 Replay", "Gase Red 7 Replay", etc. will be won.
If "S Red 7 Replay" or "W Red 7 Replay" is won during the bonus, the "Red 7" symbol or "Red Blank" symbol will be aligned in a row by notifying the "reverse push". May be stopped and displayed. In this case, as in the case of "super bonus", rush stock is given according to the stopping mode.

When it is determined that the continuation time is due to the consecutive villas (S23-3: Yes), the "ultra-high probability mode transition determination process" is executed (S23-4).
Specifically, referring to the "table for determining the transition to the ultra-high probability mode" shown in FIG. 43, a lottery is performed to determine whether or not to reset the current internal mode (S23-4), and if a winner is won (S23-4). S23-5: Yes), "ultra-high probability mode transition determination process during rush continuation" is executed (S23-6).
Specifically, the internal mode after resetting is determined with reference to the “table for determining the transition to the ultra-high probability mode during rush continuation” shown in FIG.

If it is determined that it is not the continuation time by the consecutive villas (S23-3: No), that is, if it is not the timing of the first hit or the transition to the "rush stage" by the consecutive villas, is the current internal state the ultra-high probability mode? It is determined whether or not (S23-7).
When it is determined that the mode is the ultra-high probability mode (S23-7: Yes), it is determined whether or not the internal mode is the "ultra-high probability mode A" (S23-8), and the "ultra-high probability mode A" is determined. When it is determined (S23-8: Yes), the "special stock determination process in the ultra-high probability A mode" is executed (S23-9).
Specifically, with reference to the “special stock determination table” shown in FIG. 36, whether or not to acquire the special stock is determined based on the winning winning combination.
When the special stock is acquired (S23-10: Yes), the "special stock type determination process in the ultra-high probability A mode" is executed (S23-11).
Specifically, with reference to the "special stock type determination table" shown in FIG. 37, a lottery is performed to determine the game state (stage) of the transition destination from the "rush mission" or the "attack".

In S23-8, when it is determined that the mode is not "ultra-high probability mode A" (S23-8: No), it is determined whether or not the internal mode is "ultra-high probability mode B" (S23-12). When it is determined that the "ultra-high probability mode B" is determined (S23-12: Yes), the "special stock determination process in the ultra-high probability B mode" is executed (S23-13).
Specifically, with reference to the “special stock determination table” shown in FIG. 36, whether or not to acquire the special stock is determined based on the winning winning combination.
When the special stock is acquired (S23-14: Yes), the "special stock type determination process in the ultra-high probability B mode" is executed (S23-15).
Specifically, with reference to the "special stock type determination table" shown in FIG. 37, a lottery is performed to determine the game state (stage) of the transition destination from the "rush mission" or the "attack".

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not it is the final game (30th Gth) of the "ultra-high probability mode" (S23-16).
If it is determined that the game is the final game (S23-16: Yes), the "high probability mode transition process" for shifting from the current ultra-high probability mode A or ultra-high probability mode B to the high probability mode is executed (S23). -17). Not limited to this, the mode may be shifted to the low probability mode, or the mode may be shifted to the ultra-high probability mode again.

<Rush mission processing>
FIG. 70 is a flowchart showing "rush mission processing" performed by the main control unit 10.
The "rush mission process" is a process executed while staying in the above-mentioned "rush mission".
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the "rush mission" has been entered (S25-1). For example, when the bet button 2a is operated at the time of entering the "rush mission", it is determined that the bet button 2a has entered.
If it is determined that the "rush mission" has entered (S25-1: Yes), the "enemy level determination process" is executed (S25-2).
In this case, the main control unit 10 operates as a reference value determining means, so that the "enemy level determining table" shown in FIG. 45 is referred to, and the enemy level is selected from among the enemy levels 1 to 5 according to the current internal mode. To determine.
Next, referring to the "enemy HP determination table" shown in FIG. 32, the "enemy HP determination process" for determining the "HP" according to the determined enemy level is executed (S25-3).

On the other hand, if it is determined that it is not the time to enter the "rush mission" (S25-1: No), it is determined whether or not the current game state is in the "rush mission" (S25-4), and the "rush mission" is performed. When it is determined that the condition is satisfied (S24-4: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as a condition establishment determination means to determine whether or not the attack condition is satisfied (S25-5). ..
The attack condition is, for example, a condition that the player wins other than "missing" or "normal replay", and if it is determined that the attack condition is satisfied (S25-5: Yes), the winning combination of this game is rare. Judge whether it is a role (S25-6)
If it is determined that the rare role has been won (S25-6: Yes), the "special process for determining the number of enemy damages" is executed (S25-7). Specifically, the "enemy damage number" is determined according to the winning combination with reference to the "enemy damage number determination special table" shown in FIG. 34.
If it is determined that a non-rare role has been won (S25-6: No), the "enemy damage number determination process" is executed (S25-8). Specifically, the "enemy damage number" is determined according to the enemy level with reference to the "enemy damage number determination table" shown in FIG. 33.

Next, the main control unit 10 operates as a condition establishment determination means to determine whether or not the end condition of the "rush mission" is satisfied (S25-9).
The end condition of "Rush Mission" is that the "HP" of the enemy character or ally character becomes zero, and if it is determined that this end condition is satisfied (S25-9: Yes), then , Determine whether or not the ally has won (S25-10).
If it is determined that the ally has been defeated (S25-10: No), the "rush mission end process" (for example, sending an end command to the sub-control unit 20) for ending the "rush mission" is executed. (S25-14).
On the other hand, when it is determined that the ally has won (S25-10: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as a privilege granting means to execute the "rush stock number determination process" (S25-11). Specifically, the number of rush stocks to be assigned is determined with reference to the “table for determining the number of rush stocks” shown in FIG. 35.

If the ally wins, the "rush mission continuous battle determination process" is subsequently executed (S25-12).
Specifically, with reference to the "consecutive battle determination table" shown in FIG. 46, it is determined whether or not to "continue battle" according to the enemy level and the current internal mode.
If it is determined that "continuous battle" has been decided (S25-13: Yes), the "rush mission" can be executed again, and if it is determined that "non-continuous battle" has been decided (S25-13: No). ), "Rush mission end processing" (for example, transmitting an end command to the sub-control unit 20) for terminating the "rush mission" is executed (S25-14).

<Attack processing>
FIG. 71 is a flowchart showing an “attack process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The "attack process" is a process executed while staying in the above-mentioned "attack".
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not it has entered the “attack” (S26-1). For example, when the bet button 2a is operated at the time of "attack" rush, it is determined that "rushed".
If it is determined that the "attack" has entered (S26-1: Yes), the "attack continuation rate determination process" is executed (S26-2).
In this case, the "attack continuation rate" is determined with reference to the "attack continuation rate determination table" shown in FIG. 47.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the game is not in the "attack" (S26-1: No), it is determined whether or not the current game state is in the "attack" (S26-3), and the game is in the "attack". If it is determined that there is (S26-3: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as an increase number determination means to execute the "additional game number determination process" (S26-4).
Specifically, the number of additional games is determined according to the winning combination won in the game this time with reference to the "table for determining the number of additional games for attack" shown in FIG. 48. The determined number of additional games is added (increased) to the number of AT games in the "rush stage" of the transition destination.

Next, the "additional game number division display determination process" is executed (S26-5).
Specifically, with reference to the “table for determining the number of additional games to be attacked” shown in FIG. 49, it is determined whether or not to divide and display the number of additional games determined in S26-4. Based on this determination, the number of additional games is displayed on the notification means such as the display 8.

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not it is the final game (6th Gth) of the "attack" (S26-6).
If it is determined that the game is the final game (S26-6: Yes), the "attack continuation determination process" is executed (S26-7).
Specifically, it is determined whether or not to continue the "attack" based on the continuation rate determined in S26-2.
If it is determined that "continuation" has been decided (S26-8: Yes), the "attack" with 6 games as one set continues again, and if it is determined that "discontinuation" has been decided (S26). -8: No), the "attack end process" for ending the "attack" is executed (S26-9).

<Drive processing>
FIG. 72 is a flowchart showing a “drive process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The "drive process" is a process executed while staying in the "drive" described above.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the current gaming state is in "drive" (S27-1), and if it determines that it is in "drive" (S27-1: Yes), It is determined whether or not it is the start game (first game) of the fourth set (S27-2).
If it is determined that the game is the start game of the fourth set (S27-2: Yes), the "drive continuation determination process" is executed (S27-3). Specifically, with reference to the "drive continuation determination table" shown in FIG. 50, it is determined whether or not to continue the "drive".

Next, the main control unit 10 operates as an increase number determination means to execute the "addition determination process during driving" (S27-4).
Specifically, the number of additional games is determined according to the winning combination won in the game this time with reference to the "table for determining the number of additional games for driving" shown in FIG. The number of additional games determined here is added (increased) to the number of AT games in the "rush stage" of the transition destination.
It is determined whether or not the number of additional games has been determined (S27-5), and if it is determined that the number of additional games has been determined (S27-5: Yes), the result determined in S27-3 is "discontinued". It is determined whether or not (S27-6).
If it is determined that the continuation state is "discontinued" (S27-6: Yes), the "drive continuation state change process" is executed (S27-7).
That is, even if it is determined to be "discontinued" in S27-3, if the lottery for the number of additional games is won in the subsequent game during "drive", it is set (memorized) as "discontinued". The process of changing the continuation state is changed to "continuation", and the "drive" continues (consecutive villa).

Next, it is determined whether or not the end condition of the "drive" is satisfied (S27-8).
The end condition of "drive" is a condition that the continuation state is "discontinuation" and the sixth game, which is the final game of one set, is reached, and when it is determined that this end condition is satisfied. (S27-8: Yes) Then, it is determined whether or not the "drive" has continued for 20 sets or more.
If it is determined that 20 sets or more have not been continued (S27-9: No), the "drive termination process" for terminating the "drive" is executed (S27-11).
On the other hand, when it is determined that 20 sets or more have been continued (S27-9: Yes), the "ending transition control process" for shifting to the "ending" is executed (S27-10).

<Ending process>
FIG. 73 is a flowchart showing the “ending process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The "ending process" is a process executed while staying at the above-mentioned "ending".
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the current gaming state is in the "ending" (S28-1), and if it determines that the current gaming state is in the "ending" (S28-1: Yes), It is determined whether or not a predetermined winning combination has been won (S28-2).
If it is determined that the predetermined winning combination has not been won (S28-2: No), the "ending process" is completed, and if it is determined that the predetermined winning combination has been won (S28-2: Yes). ), "Special stock determination process in low probability mode" is executed (S28-3).
Specifically, with reference to the “special stock determination table” shown in FIG. 36, whether or not to acquire the special stock is determined based on the winning winning combination.

Next, it is determined whether or not it is the final game (100Gth) of the "ending" (S28-4).
If it is determined that the game is the final game (S28-4: Yes), it is determined whether or not the special stock has been acquired in S28-3 (S28-5).
When the special stock is acquired (S28-5: Yes), the "special stock type determination process in the low probability mode" is executed (S28-6).
Specifically, a lottery is performed to determine the game state (stage) of the transition destination with reference to the “special stock type determination table” shown in FIG. 37.
If a plurality of special stocks have been acquired during the "ending", lottery is performed for the number of acquired stocks, and the game is controlled to shift to each gaming state (stage) in the determined order. Next, the "ending end process" for ending the "ending" is executed (S28-7).

<7-segment chance processing>
FIG. 74 is a flowchart showing the “7-segment chance processing” performed by the main control unit 10.
In the slot machine 1 in the present embodiment, the "7-segment chance effect" using the 7-segment display 14 is executed during the "advantageous gaming state".
The "7-segment chance effect" has a game property that when a 3-digit doublet is displayed on the 7-segment display 14, rush stock can be obtained according to the displayed number.

First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not a specific combination (“special replay 1”) has been won (S29-1).
If it is determined that "Special Replay 1" has not been won (S29-1: No), "7-segment chance processing" is completed, and if it is determined that "Special Replay 1" has been won (S29). -2: Yes), "7-segment chance execution decision processing" is executed (S29-3).
Specifically, with reference to the "7-segment chance execution determination table" shown in FIG. 52, it is determined whether or not to execute the "7-segment chance production". For example, "execution" is determined with a probability of 2/255, and "non-execution" is determined with a probability of 253/255.

When it is determined that "non-execution" is determined (S29-3: No), "7-segment chance processing" is terminated, and when it is determined that "execution" is determined (S29-3: Yes). , The 7-segment display 14 starts the fluctuation of the 7-segment display and executes the "7-segment chance determination process" (S29-4).
Specifically, with reference to the "7-segment chance execution decision table" shown in FIG. 53, it is decided whether or not to execute the "7-segment chance production", and for example, the winning is performed with a probability of about 1/2. It is designed to do. The probability of determining whether or not to execute the "7-segment chance effect" is not limited to this, and can be arbitrarily set. For example, it is possible to make the probability different depending on the game setting value and the winning combination.

As a result of the lottery, in the case of "non-winning", the display of the changing 3-digit 7-segment display is stopped at random points.
On the other hand, if the result of the lottery is "winning", the display of the three-digit 7-segment display, which is changing, is stopped with doublet.
At this time, the number of rush stocks to be given as a privilege is determined by lottery. For example, when the determined number of rush stocks is "1", the 3-digit 7-segment display is an even number (2, 4). , 6, 8), and if the determined number of rush stocks is "2", the 3-digit 7-segment display is stopped at odd (1, 3, 5, 9) doublets. If the determined number of rush stocks is "3", the display of the 3-digit 7-segment display is stopped at the 7th doublet.

<Bonus game status processing>
FIG. 75 is a flowchart showing "bonus game state processing" performed by the main control unit 10.
The "bonus game state process" is executed when the current game state is "bonus", and each process is executed according to the type of bonus.
Specifically, "normal bonus processing" (S31) and "red 7, red 7," which start execution when the combination of "red 7, red 7, red blank" symbols stops on the winning line. The combination of the symbols of "Red 7" (S32) and "White 7, White 7, White 7" that starts execution when the combination of the symbols of "Red 7" stops on the winning line is on the winning line. There is a "white bonus process" (S33) that starts execution when it is stopped.

<Super bonus processing>
FIG. 76 is a flowchart showing the “super bonus process” performed by the main control unit 10.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the current gaming state is in the "super bonus" (S32-1), and if it determines that the current gaming state is in the "super bonus" (S32-1: Yes). ), Determine whether or not the "S Red 7 Replay" was won (S32-2).
If it is determined that the "S red 7 replay" has been won (S32-2: Yes), the "rush stock number determination process when the S red 7 is aligned" is executed (S32-3).
Specifically, the number of rush stocks is determined with reference to the "table for determining the number of rush stocks when red 7 is aligned" shown in FIG. 55.
Next, in a state where the left reel 41a and the right reel 42b are fluctuating (non-stop state), it is determined whether or not the "red 7" symbol has stopped in the middle stage of the middle reel 41b (S32-4).
When it is determined that the "Red 7" symbol has stopped in the middle stage of the middle reel 41b (S32-4: Yes), the sub-control unit 20 operates as a specific effect executing means, for example, a special voice ("Issue certainty"). ") (Specific effect) is output (S32-5).

If it is determined in S32-2 that the "S Red 7 Replay" has not been won (S32-2: No), it is determined whether or not the "W Red 7 Replay" has been won (S32-6). ).
If it is determined that the "W red 7 replay" has been won (S32-6: Yes), the "rush stock number determination process when the W red 7 is aligned" is executed (S32-7).
Specifically, the number of rush stocks is determined with reference to the "table for determining the number of rush stocks when red 7 is aligned" shown in FIG. 55.

Next, on the winning line, "watermelon / red 7 / red blank" and "watermelon / red 7 / bell" (first stop display mode) are stopped, and S red 7 is aligned, or "red blank / red 7 / red". It is determined whether or not the W red 7 alignment in which the "blank" (second stop display mode) is stopped has stopped (S32-8).
When it is determined that the S red 7 alignment or the W red 7 alignment has stopped (S32-8: Yes), a congratulatory image such as "Congratulations !!" is displayed on the display 8 (S32-9). ..
Even if the combination of the symbols of S red 7 and W red 7 is not stopped, this image is displayed as long as the right (rush stock) is acquired.

If it is determined in S32-6 that the "S Red 7 Replay" has not been won (S32-6: No), it is determined whether or not the "missing" has been won (S32-10).
When it is determined that the "missing" is won (S32-10: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as an increase number determination means to execute the "additional game number determination process" (S32-11). ..
Specifically, the "number of additional games" is determined with reference to the "table for determining the number of additional games in the super bonus" shown in FIG. 56. The determined "number of additional games" is added (added) to the number of AT games in the "rush stage" that shifts after the bonus ends.

As described above, the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can exert the following effects.

For example, according to the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the specific number (the number of AT initial games) of the "rush stage" which is the "advantageous game state" is increased in the "field" which is the "normal game state". It is possible to determine the number of additional games to be added (the number of initial games to be added), and the number of initial games to be added is calculated by accumulating the number of additional initial games determined in the "field" and the additional magnification. It has become like.
In this way, the number of increases (the number of additional confirmed initial games) for extending the game period of the "rush stage" is determined by the number of additional initial games and the additional magnification, so the number of games to be extended (added) varies. Can be held. As a result, it is possible to prevent the game from becoming monotonous and to improve the interest.
In addition, although the number of additional confirmed initial games calculated in the "field" is notified, the additional magnification is not notified, so the game nature of estimating the current additional magnification from the notified additional confirmed initial number of games is achieved. It can be realized and the interest of the game can be enhanced.

On the other hand, Patent Document 1 discloses a gaming machine that determines the number of additional games for increasing the number of games in ART when a predetermined winning combination is won, and grants the number of additional games.
However, the number of additional games given according to the winning combination tends to be uniform, which makes the game monotonous and causes a decline in the interest of the game.

Further, for example, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the specific effect (battle game) in which the right to execute the "advantageous game state" can be acquired is the "normal mission" and the "advantageous" in the "normal game state". It can be executed in both "Rush missions" during "Game state", and in the "Battle game" performed during "Normal missions", it ends when the right is acquired, while "Rush missions" In the "battle game" that is held during the game, even if the right is acquired, there are cases where a series of villas (continuous battles) occurs.
As a result, even if the "battle game" has almost the same production contents, it is possible to give different game characteristics according to the timing of occurrence, so that it is possible to prevent the game from becoming monotonous.

On the other hand, Patent Document 2 discloses a specific effect state (ART state) that shifts based on the establishment of a predetermined transition condition, and includes an effect mode in which the number of games is added in the specific effect state. The gaming machine is disclosed.
However, since the game quality does not change regardless of when this production mode occurs during the game, the game becomes monotonous, and the interest of the game is lowered.

Further, for example, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, when the "S red 7 alignment" is stopped during the super bonus, the right (rush stock) for executing the "advantageous game state" is given, and the super bonus is in progress. When "W Red 7 Match" is stopped, more rush stock is given than "S Red 7 Match".
Then, when "S red 7 alignment" or "W red 7 alignment" can be stopped and displayed, the "red 7" symbol is displayed in the middle row on the middle reel 41b while the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are being displayed in a variable manner. It can be stopped and displayed, and when the "Red 7" symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle of the middle reel 41b, it is confirmed that "S Red 7 Alignment" or "W Red 7 Alignment" will stop, and as a special voice. When "Issue" (specific effect) is output, "S red 7 alignment" is in a stoptable state, and when it is not output, "W red 7 alignment" is in a stoptable state.
As a result, it is possible to make the production different according to the privilege given to the player, so that it is possible to prevent the game from becoming monotonous.

On the other hand, in the conventional slot machine, although the profits to be given are different in terms of the profits such as the number of additional games and the number of additional stocks in ART, the same production is performed, so that the game becomes monotonous and the interest is reduced. I was inviting.

As described above, according to the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, it is possible to give the player an interest, interest, excitement, and expectation that are not found in the effect display that has been performed in the conventional game machine. It is possible to realize new game characteristics that are not available.
Further, according to the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to solve all or part of such problems that the conventional gaming machine should improve.

In the invention according to the embodiment described above, the following cases can also be applied as modifications or application embodiments.

For example, the present invention may be applied to an AT machine. That is, there may be no RT state.
Further, although RT0 to RT4 are all infinite RT, some or all of them may be finite RT.
In addition, due to the suspension of promotion replay, the transition from RT1 to RT2 and from RT2 to RT3 was made, but due to the suspension of other small roles, the stop display of spilled small roles, or the passage of a predetermined number of games, etc. You may want to migrate.
Further, although the winning probability of the replay combination is set according to the type of RT, the winning probability of the replay combination is not limited to this numerical value. For example, there may be an RT with a higher probability than RTs 2 and 3.
Further, even if the bonus is won, the RT state (RT3) at the time of winning the bonus may be maintained without shifting to RT4.

Further, in the present embodiment, the additional magnification is not notified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a predetermined timing (for example, the timing when the effect button is operated) may be notified, and the notification is always made. It may be.
Further, when the total number of additional initial games or the number of additional confirmed initial games exceeds a predetermined value (for example, 300 G), the additional magnification may be notified.
Further, when the bonus is won during the "field", the additional magnification may be notified between the winning and the winning of the bonus.
In addition, a lottery may be performed to determine whether or not to notify the additional magnification, and the lottery result may be notified.
In addition, by providing a low-probability state, a high-probability state, and an ultra-high-probability state in the "field", for example, the internal state before entering the "field" can be inherited, and the additional magnification can be increased according to the internal state of staying. It may be determined, or there may be a value that is determined only in a specific internal state (for example, the addition factor "10" is determined only in the ultra-high probability state).
Further, the player may be able to set whether or not to notify the additional magnification.
Further, the additional magnification is not limited to the above-mentioned "1" to "4" (see FIG. 28), and may be set to "5" or more. Further, a value having a decimal point may be provided for the addition magnification.

Further, in the present embodiment, the "battle game" in the "normal mission" does not have a continuous battle, and the "battle game" in the "rush mission" has a continuous battle, but the present invention is not limited to this. , The opposite may be set.
In the "battle game" in the "normal mission" and the "rush mission", the right to be acquired when winning is not limited to the rush stock, and the number of additional games and other rights may be granted. In addition, in "normal mission" and "rush mission", when it is possible to add the number of games, the number of games is added, the rush stock is added, or both are added according to the level of the winning enemy. You may specify whether to do it. For example, when the enemy level is 1 or 3, the rush stock may be added, when the enemy level is 2 or 4, the number of games may be added, and when the enemy level is 5, both may be added.

Further, in the present embodiment, the normal bonus, the super bonus, and the white bonus are provided as the types of the "bonus", but only one of these may be provided, or none of them may be provided.
When the bonus is not provided, for example, another type of RT may be provided, the RT may be a pseudo bonus, and the pseudo bonus may be provided with a bonus function.
Further, in the present embodiment, it is possible to acquire rush stock when "S Red 7 Replay" or "W Red 7 Replay" is won, and it is possible to acquire an additional number of games when "Out of" is won. The opposite may be true.
Further, in the present embodiment, when the special voice (“one-of-a-kind”) is output, “S red 7 alignment” can be stopped, and when it is not output, “W red 7 alignment” can be stopped. However, not limited to this, on the contrary, the special voice ("Issue") is output when "W Red 7 Alignment" can be stopped, and "S Red 7 Alignment" is not output when it can be stopped. You may.
In addition, a special voice (“certainty”) may be output according to a predetermined condition. For example, it is output when the number of acquisitions in the bonus exceeds the predetermined value or according to the game state before the bonus winning. It may be possible.

Further, the winning probability according to each table (FIGS. 9 to 56) of the present embodiment is limited to the above-mentioned value, and the setting can be arbitrarily changed.
In addition, by providing a low-probability state, a high-probability state, and an ultra-high-probability state during the "normal mission", for example, the internal state before entering the "normal mission" can be taken over, and the "battle" depends on the internal state of staying. You may make it easier to win the game.

Further, the "normal stage" in the present embodiment is defined as a normal section, the other gaming states are defined as an advantageous section, and the number of games (the number of continuous games) in which this advantageous section continues is set to an upper limit such as 1500 games. You may. Then, when the number of continuous games reaches 1500 games, it is preferable to initialize (set to "zero") the number of AT games remaining at that time. Further, when the number of continuous games reaches 1500 games, the RT state may be forcibly shifted to RT1 and shifted to the "normal stage" unless the bonus is in progress.
As a result, for example, it is possible to suppress gambling due to the number of AT games being increased without an upper limit by winning the number of additional games during the "advantageous gaming state".
Further, during the advantageous section, it is preferable to turn on and blink the advantageous state lamp 13. Instead of this, the advantageous state lamp 13 may be, for example, a 7-segment “dot” portion or the like.
