The RB4 established state during RBB operation is a gaming state (shift combination established state) that shifts when the winning area "RB4" is won in the internal lottery in the general state during RBB operation and the RB4 is set to the established state. The shift combination is not activated and the combination is not operating. In the RB4 establishment state during the RBB operation, the game state transition control means 170 causes the internal lottery means 120 to execute an internal lottery using the internal lottery table D in which the winning probability of the replay is set to 1 / 2.9.

In the present embodiment, the RB establishment state during RBB operation is configured to surely win a small winning combination or a replay by an internal lottery, and the same number of replays as the specified number of inputs are paid out (3). When treating as (3 cards inserted), the ratio of the total number of medals to be paid out to the total number of medals inserted in the game of the predetermined number of games is the winning area "RBB" where the medals are not paid out even if a prize is won at the time of winning. Total payout for the total number of medals inserted in the specified number of games in the non-RT state included in the target of the internal lottery and the bonus establishment state that may result in loss (unwinning) as a result of the internal lottery. It is set to a value higher than the ratio of numbers.

The non-RT state in which the RBB is not operating and the bonus establishment state constitute the first state in the present embodiment, and among the states in which the RBB is operating, the RB establishment state during the RBB operation is the first state in the present embodiment. It constitutes two states. Further, the game state transition control means 170 that controls the non-RT state, the bonus establishment state, and the RB establishment state during RBB operation constitutes the state control means in the present embodiment.

The RB1 operating state is a gaming state (shift combination operating state) that is shifted when the RB1 wins and the RB1 operates. In the RB1 operating state, the game state transition control means 170 has a case where the number of times the small winning combination has won becomes a predetermined predetermined number of winning times (for example, 8 times) and the number of games executed after the RB1 is activated. When the predetermined number of games (for example, 12 games) is reached, the operating RB1 is terminated and the game state is changed from the RB1 operating state to the RB1 operating general state. In the RB1 operating state, the gaming state transition control means 170 causes the internal lottery means 120 to execute an internal lottery using the internal lottery table E.

The RB2 operating state is a gaming state (shift combination operating state) that is shifted when the RB2 wins and the RB2 operates. In the RB2 operating state, the game state transition control means 170 has a case where the number of times the small winning combination has won reaches a predetermined predetermined number of winning times (for example, 8 times) and the number of games executed after the RB2 is activated. When the predetermined number of games (for example, 12 games) is reached, the operating RB2 is terminated and the game state is changed from the RB2 operating state to the RB2 operating general state. In the RB2 operating state, the gaming state transition control means 170 causes the internal lottery means 120 to execute an internal lottery using the internal lottery table E.

In the RB4 operating state, the game state transition control means 170 has a predetermined number of winnings (for example, 8 times) in which the small winning combination has won, and a number of games executed since the RB4 was activated. When the predetermined number of games (for example, 12 games) is reached, the operating RB4 is terminated and the game state is changed from the RB4 operating state to the RB4 operating general state. In the RB4 operating state, the gaming state transition control means 170 causes the internal lottery means 120 to execute an internal lottery using the internal lottery table E.

The RB operating state will be described in detail with reference to FIG. In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the probability of winning the winning area "JAC1" and the winning area "JAC2" in the RB operating state in which the internal lottery table E is selected is one of the internal lottery table A and the internal lottery table D. The probability of winning the winning area "Batting Order Bell Group A" to the winning area "Batting Order Bell Group D" in the state when RB is not activated, that is, winning any small winning combination in a gaming state other than the RB operating state. It is set to a higher probability than the probability. In addition, the probability of winning the winning area "JAC1" in the internal lottery table E is the winning area "batting order bell 1A" to the winning area "batting order bell 6A" in the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D, and the winning area "batting order bell". Rather than the probability of winning each of "1B" -winning area "batting order bell 6B", winning area "batting order bell 1C" -winning area "batting order bell 6C", winning area "batting order bell 1D" -winning area "batting order bell 6D" It is set to a high probability.

Due to such a configuration, the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment may be in a non-RT state in which the bonus is not activated or in a bonus established state in the RB operating state in which any of RB1 to RB4 is operating. , The winning probability of all the small wins is higher than the case where the bonus is activated and the shift combination is not activated in the general state during RBB operation and the state where RB is established during RBB operation. It is configured to increase the probability of winning.

Further, the slot machine 1 has a probability of obtaining a winning mode including bells A to F in which a payout is set to be larger than the specified number of inputs in the RB operating state. It is lower than the probability of obtaining a winning mode including at least one of Bell F. That is, in the slot machine 1, the probability of winning in the winning area "JAC1" is the probability of winning in any of the winning area "batting order bell 1A" to the winning area "batting order bell 6A" (the winning area "batting order bell group A"). Winning probability by adding up the winning probabilities), Probability of winning in any of the winning area "Batting order bell 1B" to winning area "Batting order bell 6B" (Winning probability by adding up the winning probabilities of the winning area "Batting order bell group B") ), The probability of winning in any of the winning area "Batting Order Bell 1C" to the winning area "Batting Order Bell 6C" (the winning probability of the winning area "Batting Order Bell Group C" combined) and the winning area "Batting Order Bell 1D" -The probability of winning in any of the winning areas "Batting Order Bell 6D" (the winning probability of the sum of the winning probabilities of the winning area "Batting Order Bell Group D") and the winning area "Batting Order Bell Group A"- It is configured to be lower than the probability of winning in any of the winning areas "batting order bell group D" (the winning probability of the sum of the winning probabilities of the winning area "batting order bell group A" to the winning area "batting order bell group D"). Has been done.

As described above, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, a plurality of types of first small batting orders (bells A to F) set to a batting order larger than the number of input of the game value required at the start of the game are provided. Multiple types of first winning modes (winning area "batting order bell 1A" -winning area "batting order bell 6A", winning area "batting order bell 1B" -winning area "batting order bell" 6B ”, winning area“ batting order bell 1C ”-winning area“ batting order bell 6C ”, winning area“ batting order bell 1D ”-winning area“ batting order bell 6D ”) It has a second winning mode (winning area "JAC1"), and the internal lottery means 120 is inside so that a plurality of types of first winning modes exist in the normal gaming state (non-RT state) and the bonus establishment state. In addition to the lottery, the internal lottery is configured so that the second winning mode exists in the bonus state (RB operating state). Further, in the slot machine 1, the probability of winning the second winning mode in the internal lottery in the bonus state is higher than the probability of winning in any of a plurality of types of the first winning mode in the internal lottery in the normal gaming state and the bonus established state. It is low, and the winning probability of each of all the small wins in the internal lottery in the bonus state is configured to be equal to or higher than the winning probability of each of the small wins in the internal lottery in the normal game state and the bonus established state.

Therefore, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the expected value of the medal acquisition rate is less than 100% in the RB operating state.

Here, in the game state other than the RB operating state, when the winning area "batting order bell group A" to the winning area "batting order bell group D" are won, the stop button B1 to the stop button B3 must be pressed in the correct batting order. Since the configuration is such that A to Bell F cannot be won, the probability that any of Bell A to Bell F will be won is limited to the case where the stop buttons B1 to B3 can be pressed in the correct batting order. .. On the other hand, when the AT game in which the winning assistance control is executed by the instruction function control means 200B described later is executed, the correct batting order is obtained when the winning area "batting order bell group A" to the winning area "batting order bell group D" are won. Is notified, so that the probability that any one of Bell A to Bell F will win can be increased as compared with the case where the winning assist control is not executed.

As described above, in the present embodiment, six types of bells A to F are set as prize-winning roles (specific roles) for paying out more medals than the specified number of medals to be won when the stop operation is performed in the correct batting order. ing. Then, the probability that the winning mode including the specific combination is obtained in the RB operating state is compressed, and the probability that the winning mode including the specific combination is obtained in the gaming state other than the RB operating state is compressed. As a result, it is possible to design the medal acquisition performance related to AT games after lowering the lower limit of the expected value of the medal acquisition rate in the state where the RB is operating in the bonus state to less than 100%. The degree of freedom in designing the slot machine 1 provided with the above can be dramatically improved.

<Direction control means>
In the present embodiment, the effect control means 180 notifies the content notified by the winning assist control when the instruction function control means 200B executes the winning assist control (for example, the notification of the correct batting order when the winning area "batting order bell 1A" is won. Etc.) is notified by the effect using the effect device 300, and the winning auxiliary effect is executed. In the AT state, the effect control means 180 has a winning area "batting order bell 1A" to a winning area "batting order bell 6A", a winning area "batting order bell 1B" to a winning area "batting order bell 6B", and a winning area "batting order bell 1C" to winning. If you win the area "Batting Order Bell 6C", the winning area "Batting Order Bell 1D" to the winning area "Batting Order Bell 6D", and you can win the Bell A to Bell F when the correct batting order is pressed, the correct batting order Execute a winning auxiliary production to notify.

<Advantageous section control means and instruction function control means>
FIG. 7 is a state transition diagram showing details of the period controlled by the advantageous section control means 200A and the instruction function state controlled by the instruction function control means 200B of the present embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 7, the non-advantageous section is a period during which the control related to the instruction function by the instruction function control means 200B based on the result of the internal lottery by the internal lottery means 120 is not executed. The advantageous section control means 200A ends the non-advantageous section and is advantageous based on the winning area won by the internal lottery by the internal lottery means 120 and the game state when the game is started in the game in the non-advantageous section. An advantageous section lottery, which is a lottery for determining whether or not to start a section, is executed.

The advantageous section control means 200A of the present embodiment has a winning area "batting order bell group A" to a winning area "batting order bell group D" and a winning area "rare replay 1" to winning in an internal lottery in a non-RT state or a bonus established state. An advantageous section lottery is executed when the area "rare replay 3" and the winning area "normal replay 1" are won. Further, the advantageous section control means 200A is an internal lottery in the non-RT state when the winning area "normal replay 2", the winning area "normal replay 3", and the winning area "RBB" are won in the internal lottery in the non-RT state. Advantageous section when the winning area "normal replay 2" and the winning area "normal replay 3" are won, and when the winning area is won in the general state during RBB operation, the RB establishment state during RBB operation, and the RB operation state. It is configured not to execute the lottery.

In the advantageous section lottery, the advantageous section control means 200A first, from the advantageous section control data storage means 198 that stores the data related to the advantageous section among the storage means 190, "of the advantageous section" for each of the plurality of random numbers. Acquire the advantageous section transition lottery table, which is a data table associated with "start" and "loss (unwinning)". Then, the advantageous section control means 200A acquires a random number from the random number generation means 110, compares the acquired random number with the advantageous section transition lottery table, and determines whether or not to start the advantageous section based on the comparison result. The advantageous section control data storage means 198 also stores various flags set to the ON state or the OFF state by a predetermined control process executed by the advantageous section control means 200A in the advantageous section. The advantageous section control means 200A has a probability of multiplying the winning probability of the winning area won in the internal lottery and the winning probability of "start of the advantageous section" in the advantageous section lottery to be 1/17500 or more. Execute the advantageous section lottery.

In the advantageous section, the instruction function control means 200B has a non-AT state, a chance zone (CZ) state, and an AT state as states related to the instruction function (instruction function state). The instruction function control means 200B refers to various lottery tables stored in the instruction function control data storage means 199, and executes a process related to the lottery according to each instruction function state.

The non-AT state is set when the advantageous section is started by the advantageous section control means 200A and has not shifted to another instruction function state, and the instruction function corresponding to the normal state among a plurality of types of instruction function states is set. It is a state (normal instruction function state). In the non-AT state, the instruction function control means 200B has an instruction function when the winning area "rare replay 1" to the winning area "rare replay 3" are won by the internal lottery and the winning replay B and replay D are won. A CZ lottery is executed to determine whether or not to shift the state to the CZ state. In addition, the instruction function control means 200B wins the winning area "rare replay 1" to the winning area "rare replay 3" in the internal lottery, and when the winning replay B and replay D do not win, the CZ lottery is performed. It is configured not to run.

Further, in the non-AT state, whether the instruction function control means 200B shifts the instruction function state to the AT state when the winning area "normal replay 2" is won by the internal lottery and the winning replay C can be won. Perform a normal AT lottery to determine whether or not. The instruction function control means 200B executes a winning assist control for notifying the batting order that enables the replay C to be won when the "transition to the AT state" is won in the normal AT lottery.

The instruction function control means 200B is a CZ lottery so that the probability of multiplying the winning probability of the winning area won in the internal lottery and the winning probability of "transition to the CZ state" in the CZ lottery is 1/17500 or more. To execute. Further, the instruction function control means 200B has a probability of 1/17500 or more obtained by multiplying the winning probability of the winning area won in the internal lottery and the winning probability of "transition to AT state" in the normal AT lottery. As a normal time AT lottery is executed.

Further, the instruction function control means 200B receives 2000 medals when the game of 1200 games is executed after starting the advantageous section and after consuming the most medals after starting the advantageous section in the non-AT state. When the player acquires it, the instruction function state is changed from the non-AT state to the CZ state.

The CZ state is an instruction function state that can be transferred from the non-AT state. In the CZ state, the instruction function control means 200B sets a value (for example, 10 games) corresponding to a predetermined number of games in the CZ end determination counter (not shown) of the instruction function control data storage means 199 at the start of the CZ state. , Each time the game is executed, the decrement update is executed by subtracting the stored value of the CZ end determination counter by the value "1" corresponding to one game. The instruction function control means 200B is configured to execute an AT lottery for determining whether or not to determine the execution of each game AT state until the game of 10 games is executed in the CZ state, and the winning is achieved. Only when the area "normal replay 2" is won and the winning replay C can be won, it is easier to shift to the AT state than the non-AT state in which the normal AT lottery is executed.

In the CZ state, the instruction function control means 200B wins the winning area "rare replay 1" to the winning area "rare replay 3" in the internal lottery, and either the winning replay B or the winning replay D wins. There is a higher probability of winning the "transition to AT state" than the AT lottery that is executed when the winning area "normal replay 2" is won and replay C can be won, and when the other winning areas are won. Execute a special AT lottery. In addition, when the instruction function control means 200B wins the winning area "rare replay 1" to the winning area "rare replay 3" in the internal lottery, and either the winning replay B or the winning replay D does not win, It is configured to execute an AT lottery instead of a special AT lottery when the replay C cannot be won at the time of winning the winning area "normal replay 2".

If the "transition to the AT state" is won by the AT lottery or the special AT lottery before the game of 10 games is executed in the CZ state, the instruction function control means 200B executes the game of 10 games from the start of the CZ state. After that, the instruction function state is changed from the CZ state to the AT state. On the other hand, if the "transition to the AT state" is not won in the AT lottery or the special AT lottery by the time the game of 10 games is executed in the CZ state, the instruction function control means 200B has 10 games from the start of the CZ state. After the game of is executed, the instruction function state is changed from the CZ state to the non-AT state. The instruction function control means 200B is configured to shift the instruction function state from the CZ state to the AT state in the game in which the "transition to the AT state" is won in the AT lottery in the CZ state or the special AT lottery. May be good. Further, in the CZ state, the instruction function control means 200B plays 2010 medals when the game of 1210 games is executed after starting the advantageous section and after the most medals are consumed after starting the advantageous section. The instruction function state is changed from the CZ state to the AT state when the person acquires it.

The AT state is an instruction function state that shifts when the transition condition to the AT state is satisfied in the non-AT state or the CZ state. In the AT state, the instruction function control means 200B can execute the winning assist control based on winning the winning area in which the winning combination changes depending on the batting order of the stop button B1 to the stop button B3 in the internal lottery by the internal lottery means 120. It is configured. Here, the roles (specific roles) that increase the probability of winning by the winning auxiliary control are the winning area "batting order bell 1A" to the winning area "batting order bell 6A", the winning area "batting order bell 1B" to the winning area "batting order bell 6B". , Winning area "Batting order bell 1C" -Winning area "Batting order bell 6C", Winning area "Batting order bell 1D" -Winning area "Batting order bell 6D" Bell A to Bell F at the time of winning. The instruction function control means 200B that executes the winning assist control and assists the winning of the bells A to F constitutes the winning assisting means in the present embodiment.

The instruction function control means 200B sets an initial value corresponding to the number of games that can be executed in the AT state to the AT state game count counter, which is a counter that counts the number of games executed in the AT state when the AT state is started. It is set, and every time one game is executed, the decrement update is executed by subtracting the stored value of the AT state game count counter with the value "1" corresponding to one game. In the present embodiment, the instruction function control means 200B sets the value "50" as the initial value in the AT state game number counter when the advantageous section is started in the state where the game state is the non-RT state.

Further, in the present embodiment, the instruction function control means 200B has won the winning area "rare replay 1" to the winning area "rare replay 3" by the internal lottery by the internal lottery means 120, and the winning replays B and replay D have been won. When either one wins, or when the winning area "normal replay 2" is won and replay C can be won, the storage value of the AT state game count counter is determined by lottery as a control related to the instruction function. By deciding whether or not to add the added value, an additional lottery for determining whether or not to add (add) the period during which the AT state continues is executed. In addition, when the instruction function control means 200B wins the winning area "rare replay 1" to the winning area "rare replay 3" in the internal lottery, and either the winning replay B or the winning replay D does not win, In the case where the replay C cannot be won at the time of winning the winning area "normal replay 2", the additional lottery is not executed.

When the stored value of the AT state game count counter becomes the value "0" in the AT state, that is, when the AT state ends, the advantageous section control means 200A determines that the normal end condition is satisfied, and determines the advantageous section. It ends and controls to a non-advantageous section, and also executes the end process. By executing the termination process, in the slot machine 1, the data updated during the advantageous section included in the advantageous section control data storage means 198 (for example, the stored value of the advantageous section game number counter) and the instruction function control data. The data updated during the advantageous section included in the storage means 199 (for example, the stored value of the AT state game count counter) and the data are initialized.

That is, in the slot machine 1, when the reel control means 130 wins a specific winning mode (winning area "batting order bell 1A" to winning area "batting order bell 6A") in an internal lottery in a non-bonus state, the first reel Stop control (reel stop control that wins bells A to F when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order) is executed, and the game state shifts from the non-bonus state to the shift combination non-operating state. If this is the case, the stop control when the winning area "batting order bell 1A" to the winning area "batting order bell 6A" is won in the internal lottery is changed from the first reel stop control to the second reel stop control (batting order of stop button B1 to stop button B3). And the reel stop control for winning the bell A to the bell F) may be switchable regardless of the pressing timing.

Further, in the present embodiment, the slot machine 1 has the winning area "batting order bell 1A" to the winning area "batting order bell 6A", when the game state is the bonus established state, the stop button B1 to the stop button B3 in the correct batting order. When is pressed, the bells A to F can be won, and when the gaming state becomes the general state during RBB operation or the RB establishment state during RBB operation, the batting order and pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3 It is configured so that the bell A to the bell F can be won regardless, but the present invention is not limited to this. The slot machine 1 has, for example, a small winning combination (for example, a payout) having a lower payout than bells A to F when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order when the game state is a bonus establishment state. When the game state is the general state during RBB operation or the RB establishment state during RBB operation, the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order. Bell A to Bell F may be configured to be able to win a prize when operated.

Further, in the present embodiment, the slot machine 1 has the winning area "batting order bell 1A" to the winning area "batting order bell 6A", when the game state is the bonus established state, the stop button B1 to the stop button B3 in the correct batting order. When is pressed, the bells A to F can be won, and when the gaming state becomes the general state during RBB operation or the RB establishment state during RBB operation, the batting order and pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3 It is configured so that the bell A to the bell F can be won regardless, but the present invention is not limited to this. The slot machine 1 has, for example, one card when the stop button B1 to the stop button B3 are pressed in the wrong batting order when the gaming state becomes the general state during RBB operation or the RB establishment state during RBB operation. It may be configured so that A to 1 card combination C can be reliably won.

With this configuration, in the slot machine 1, when the winning assistance is not executed, the total number of medals inserted in the game of the predetermined number of games when the specific winning mode is won in the internal lottery in the bonus established state is totally inserted. When the ratio of the total number of payouts to the number is set to the first value and the winning assistance is not executed, it is input in the game of the predetermined number of games when the specific winning mode is won in the internal lottery in the shift combination non-operating state. The ratio of the total number of medals to be paid out to the total number of medals inserted is set to the second value, which is higher than the first value.

As a result, the slot machine 1 wins the winning area "beating order bell 1A" to the winning area "beating order bell 6A" in the internal lottery in the bonus established state, the general state during RBB operation, and the RB established state during RBB operation. A predetermined number of games when the replay in the general state during RBB operation and the RB establishment state during RBB operation is treated as a combination in which the same number of payouts as the specified number is executed without changing the probability and the winning probability of Bell A to Bell F. The ratio of the total number of payouts to the total number of medals inserted in the game can be higher than the bonus established state, and the replay is treated as a role in which the same number of payouts as the specified number is executed in the bonus established state. Even if the ratio of the total number of medals to be paid out to the total number of medals inserted in the number of games is reduced, the performance required for the game machine can be satisfied. It is possible to design the expected value of the medal acquisition rate in the AT state when the game is advanced, and it is possible to attract the attention of the player while maintaining the design freedom of the slot machine 1.

Further, in the present embodiment, the instruction function control means 200B is configured to execute the control related to the granting of the privilege based on the winning of the replay B to the replay D, but the present invention is not limited to this. In addition to winning the prizes of Replay B to Replay D, the instruction function control means 200B has other triggers (when a specific winning area is won by an internal lottery, or the number of games executed in each instruction function state is a predetermined number of games). It may be configured so that the control related to the granting of the privilege can be executed based on (such as when the case becomes).

Further, in the present embodiment, the advantageous section control means 200A is configured not to execute the advantageous section lottery when the gaming state is in the bonus state, but it is also predetermined even when the gaming state is in the bonus state. It may be configured to execute an advantageous section lottery at the time of winning in the winning area. When configured in this way, the advantageous section control means 200A is configured so that the probability of winning the "transition to the advantageous section" in the advantageous section lottery in the bonus state is lower than that in the advantageous section lottery in the non-bonus state. Is preferable.

Further, in the present embodiment, the slot machine 1 sets a value as an initial value in the storage value of each counter or storage means, and decrement update by subtracting 1 at each game execution, or 1 at the time of each game execution. It is configured to execute increment update that adds in increments, but it is not limited to this, and the update method of each counter or storage means may be configured to execute multiplication, division, etc., and is not particularly limited. ..
