0, the reel motors 32L, 32C, 32R, and the hopper motor 34b are connected, and these electric components are driven under the control of the main control unit 41 mounted on the game control board 40.

The game control board 40 is composed of a microcomputer provided with a main CPU 41a, ROM 41b, RAM 41c, and I / O port 41d, and is equipped with a main control unit 41 that controls the game.

The main CPU 41a includes a plurality of registers used for performing various operations. The plurality of registers include an accumulator register (A register), a flag register (F register), a general-purpose register (B register, C register, D register, E register, H register, and the like.
Registers such as L register), index register (IX register, IY register), interrupt register, refresh register, and program counter are included. The main CPU 41a updates the value of a predetermined register by executing various instructions such as an operation instruction and a read instruction included in the program, and stores the RAM 41c designated by the value (address) of the predetermined register. It is possible to update the value (data) stored in the area.

Further, among the registers, the flag register is configured so that its state changes so as to indicate the operation result of the instruction executed by the main CPU 41a, and the previous instruction is used by utilizing the change in the state of the flag register. The main CPU 41a can be made to perform the processing according to the calculation result by.

The main control unit 41 performs various controls for advancing the game in response to the detection of an operation accompanying the progress of the game, and also transmits various commands to the sub control unit 91. The command transmitted from the main control unit 41 to the sub control unit 91 is sent in only one direction, and the command is not sent from the sub control unit 91 to the main control unit 41.

The staging control board 90 can be irradiated with predetermined positions of the above-mentioned liquid crystal display 51, CZ lamp 57, AT lamp 58 (see FIG. 1), a speaker capable of outputting sound, reels 2L, 2C, and 2R from the back side. The effect devices such as reels (not shown) are connected, and the output state of these effect devices can be controlled by the sub control unit 91 mounted on the effect control board 90. The sub control unit 91 receives a command transmitted from the main control unit 41 and performs various controls for performing the effect.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment has a configuration in which the medal payout rate changes according to the set value.
Specifically, the medal payout rate is changed by using the winning probability according to the set value in the lottery that affects the advantage to the player such as the internal lottery. The set value is 1 to 6
6 has the highest payout rate, and the smaller the value is in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 the lower the payout rate. That is, when 6 is set as the set value, the advantage is highest for the player, and the smaller the value in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 is, the lower the advantage is.

In order to change the set value, it is necessary to turn on the power of the slot machine 1 after turning on the setting key switch 37. When the power is turned on with the setting key switch 37 turned on, the setting value read from the RAM 41c is displayed as a display value on the setting value display 24, and the setting value can be changed by operating the reset / setting switch 38. Move to the changed state. When the reset / setting switch 38 is operated in the setting change state, the display value displayed on the setting value display 24 is updated by 1 (when the setting value 6 is further operated, the setting value is changed to 1). return). Then, when the start switch 7 is operated, the display value is fixed as the set value. Then, when the setting key switch 37 is turned off, the confirmed display value (setting value)
Is stored in the RAM 41c of the main control unit 41, and shifts to a state in which the game can proceed.

The setting key switch 37 and the reset / setting switch 38 are provided inside the slot machine 1 and cannot be operated unless the front door 1b, which can be opened by a predetermined key operation, is opened. Only the clerk who has the key can operate it. In particular, since the setting key switch 37 requires further key operation, only the clerk who has the key to operate the setting key switch 37 can operate the setting key switch 37 among the clerk of the game store. Further, the reset switch 23 does not need to open the front door 1b, but requires a key operation using a predetermined key, so that only a store clerk who possesses the predetermined key can operate the reset switch 23. The reset / setting switch 38 also functions as a reset switch for canceling the error state in the normal state.

In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, a specified number of bets that can be set according to the gaming state is determined, and the game is provided on the condition that the specified number of bets is set according to the gaming state. Can be started. In this embodiment, the winning line LN is activated when a predetermined number of bets are set according to the gaming state.

The winning line is a line set to determine whether the combination of symbols displayed on the perspective windows 3 of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is a combination of winning symbols. In this embodiment, FIG.
As shown in the above, only the winning line LN set across the middle stage of the reel 2L, the middle stage of the reel 2C, the middle stage of the reel 2R, that is, the symbols arranged horizontally in the middle stage is defined as the winning line. In this embodiment, only one winning line is applied, but a plurality of winning lines may be applied.

Then, in this embodiment, the winning line that is activated when all the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are stopped (in the case of this embodiment, the winning line LN is always enabled, so that it is enabled in the following. The winning line LN is simply called the winning line), and a winning combination is obtained when a combination of symbols called a role is aligned. The combination may be a combination of the same symbols or a combination including different symbols.

Further, in this embodiment, in order to make it easier to recognize that the winning line LN has a set of symbols constituting the winning, the invalid lines LM1 to 4 (LM1 is the left middle right reel) separately from the winning line LN. LM2 is a line extending over each middle stage of the left middle right reel, LM3 is a line extending over each lower stage of the left middle right reel, and LM4 is a line extending over each lower stage of the left middle right reel and middle stage of the middle reel. , The line over the upper part of the right reel.) Is set.
The invalid lines LM1 to LM1 to 4 are not determined to win by the combination of the symbols aligned with the invalid lines LM1 to 4, but are invalid lines when the winning line LN has a combination of symbols constituting a specific winning. A combination of symbols that can be used as an index in any of LM1 to LM4 (for example, bell-
By making the bell-bell) aligned, it is easy to recognize that the winning line LN has a matching combination of symbols constituting a specific winning.

When playing a game in the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, first, a medal is inserted from the medal insertion unit 4, or a MAXBET switch 6 is operated to set a bet number using credits. When the specified number of bets determined according to the gaming state is set, the winning line LN (see FIG. 1) becomes valid, and the operation of the start switch 7 is valid, that is,
The game is ready to start. If more than the maximum number of medals are inserted out of the specified number corresponding to the gaming state, the amount will be added to the credit.

If you operate the start switch 7 while the game can be started, each reel 2L, 2C, 2
R is rotated, and the symbols of each reel 2L, 2C, and 2R are continuously changed. Reel 2L, 2
When any of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is operated while C and 2R are being rotated, stop control is performed for the corresponding reels 2L, 2C and 2R, and the rotation of the reel is stopped. The design of the reel is derived and displayed on the perspective window 3 as a display result.

In the stop control, the reels 2L, 2C, and 2C corresponding to the operation within the maximum stop delay time (190 ms (millisecond) in this embodiment) from the time when the operation is performed for each stop switch.
Control is performed to stop the rotation of R. The reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are rotated 80 times per minute, and 80 (rotation) x 21 (number of symbol frames per reel, for example, 21 frames) = 1680 frames of symbols are varied, so a predetermined maximum Until the stop delay time (190 ms) elapses, up to four frames of symbols can be drawn in. That is, in the stop control, one symbol from the symbol displayed when the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated and the symbols up to 4 frames ahead, for a total of 5 frames (retraction range). Can be selected and led to the reels 2L, 2R, 2R.

As a result, in the stop control, when the rotation is stopped by operating the corresponding stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R for each reel 2L, 2C, 2R, the winning combination won in the internal lottery described later is selected. The constituent symbols are 4 from the symbol when the stop switch is operated.
If it is within the pull-in range to the frame destination, the symbol is pulled onto the winning line LN to stop the rotation of the reel operated by the stop switch, while the winning combination won in the internal lottery is selected. If the constituent symbols are not within the pull-in range, the symbols constituting any winning combination are not configured so that the symbols constituting the winning combination not won in the internal lottery do not stop on the winning line LN. It is possible to pull it onto the winning line LN and control the stop switch to stop the operated reel rotation.

When all reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are stopped, one game is completed, and a combination of predetermined symbols (hereinafter, also referred to as a combination) on the winning line LN is each reel 2L, 2C, 2
If the game is stopped as a result of displaying R, a prize is generated, and a number of medals determined according to the prize are given to the player and added to the credit. Further, when the number of credits reaches the upper limit (50 in this embodiment), the medals are directly paid out from the medal payout exit 9 (see FIG. 1). Further, when the combination of symbols accompanied by the transition of the gaming state stops on the winning line LN as a display result of each reel 2L, 2C, 2R, the combination of symbols is shifted to the gaming state according to the combination of symbols. ..

In this embodiment, the game starts when the operation of the start switch 7 is detected while the operation of the start switch 7 is valid, and the game ends when all the reels are stopped. Further, one unit of control for executing the game (game control) starts when all the controls associated with the end of the previous game are completed, and when all the controls associated with the end of the game are completed. finish.

In the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, the type of winning combination is determined according to the game state, and the next game can be started without the need to set the number of bets and the small winning combination with the payout of medals. There is a re-gaming role, and a special role accompanied by a transition to a gaming state (special state) that is advantageous to the player. In the following, the small role and the replaying role are collectively referred to as the general role. In order for each winning combination determined according to the gaming state to be won, it is necessary to win the internal lottery and set the winning flag for the winning combination. The internal lottery is performed before the display results of all reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are derived (specifically, whether or not the main control unit 41 allows the winning of each of the above-mentioned winning combinations.
It is determined by using a random number at the time of detection of the start switch 7).

Of the winning flags for each combination, the winning flags for the small combination and the replaying combination are valid only in the game in which the flags are set, and are invalid in the next game, but the winning flag for the special combination is It is valid until the combinations of the allowed combinations are complete by the flag, and is invalid in the game in which the combinations of the allowed combinations are complete. That is, once the winning flag of the special role is won,
Even if the combination of combinations allowed by the flag cannot be aligned, the winning flag is not invalidated and is carried over to the next game.

Further, in the internal lottery, when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode (for example, stop operation order, operation timing), it is more advantageous than the case where the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. A role and a replaying role (hereinafter, may be referred to as a navigation target role) can be won. The navigation target role may be, for example, a role that is more advantageous than the stop mode in which the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode and the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. Includes a combination in which, when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined predetermined operation mode, the rate of stopping the advantageous stop mode is higher than that in the case where the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. Further, the advantageous stop mode includes not only a stop mode accompanied by the awarding of a medal, but also a stop mode accompanied by a transition to an advantageous gaming state, a stop mode in which a transition to an unfavorable gaming state is avoided, and the like.

The main control unit 41 executes a navigation notification that notifies the navigation information that can specify the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, which is advantageous for the player according to the internal lottery result, by the lighting mode of the game auxiliary display 12. It is possible to control the assist time (AT), which is a possible notification period. The main control unit 41 is granted the right to be controlled by the AT to the player, whereby
The control of the AT is started and the AT is controlled. Then, when the AT is controlled, by winning the navigation target combination, the navigation notification is executed, and the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R (for example, the push order, which is advantageous for the player). The operation timing, etc.) is notified using the game auxiliary display 12, and a command that can specify an operation mode that is advantageous to the player is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91, so that the operation mode is displayed on the liquid crystal display. The navigation effect to be notified is executed by using 51 or the like. By operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R in the operation mode notified by the navigation notification and the navigation effect, the push order winning combination won in the internal lottery can be reliably won. Further, during the period of control to the AT, the advantageous section LED 25 is turned on during the period to notify that the AT is being controlled.

[About winning roles]
Next, the winning combination in the slot machine 1 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

As shown in FIG. 4, the special winning combination includes BB. In addition, among the winning roles, the small roles include middle-tier cherry, right-up cherry, lower-tier cherry, upper-tier watermelon, middle-tier bell, right-down-down bell, upper-tier bell 1, upper-tier bell 2, upper-tier bell 3, upper-tier bell 4, and upper-tier bell 5. , Upper bell 6
, Upper bell 7, upper bell 8, 1-card combination 1, 1-sheet combination 2. In addition, among the winning roles, the replay role includes a normal replay, a control replay 1, a control replay 2, a control replay 3, a fall replay 1, a fall replay 2, a promotion replay, a cherry replay, and a downward-sloping replay. ..

For each winning combination, a predetermined combination of symbols (see FIGS. 4 and 5) is used as reels 2L and 2C.
, Win a prize by stopping at the 2R winning line LN, shift to a special state by winning a special role among the winning roles, and a predetermined number of prizes by winning a small role among the winning roles (Fig.) 4
The medals (see) are paid out, and the re-game is awarded when the re-gaming role among the winning roles wins. Further, when a predetermined re-gaming combination among the re-gaming combinations wins a prize in the predetermined re-gaming combination, the game shifts to a predetermined predetermined gaming state (see FIG. 5).

[About the transition of game states and the outline of each game state]
Next, the transition of the gaming states (RT0 to RT4, BB) controlled by the main control unit 41 and the outline of each gaming state will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 6, in the slot machine 1, RT0 and RT are set as controllable gaming states.
1, RT2, RT3, RT4 (inside), and BB (big bonus) are provided. RT1 and RT3 are gaming states in which the probability of winning a replay is higher than that of RT0, RT2, and RT4 (inside). Hereinafter, RT1 and RT3 may be referred to as advantageous RT.

After the setting is changed, it is first controlled to RT0. In RT0, if the winning of the right-down bell or the middle bell is missed when the push order bell is won, the missed stitch is derived, and the gaming state is transferred to RT1 on condition that the missed stitch is derived. In RT1, when the fall replay 1 wins, the game state is transferred to RT2. On the other hand, in RT1, when the promotion replay wins, the game state is transferred to RT3. In RT2, when 32 games are digested, the game state is transferred to RT1. In RT3, if the winning of the right-down bell or the middle bell is missed when the push order bell is won, the missed stitch is derived, and the gaming state is transferred to RT1 on condition that the missed stitch is derived. Further, in RT3, the gaming state is also transferred to RT1 by winning the fall replay 2. In any of RT1 to RT4, if the BB is won, the gaming state is transferred to RT4 (inside). Further, in RT1 and RT3, when the advantageous section reaches 1500 games and the advantageous section is terminated, the advantageous RT is also terminated.

Here, RT0 is a gaming state in an initial state that shifts after the setting is changed, and is a gaming state in which the total probability of replay is lower than that of RT1 and RT3, which is more disadvantageous to the player than RT1 and RT3. When the advantageous section ends, the game state is shifted to the initial state, and ART (a state in which AT is controlled and is controlled by advantageous RT) ends.

Inside, if you win the BB, the game state will be transferred to the BB. In addition, RT0-3
If the BB can be won in the game in which the BB is won in any of the above, the game state is transferred to the BB without going through the inside. The BB is terminated when the number of medals paid out in the BB exceeds 350, and when the BB is terminated, the gaming state is shifted to RT0.

[About the lottery target role]
Next, the lottery target combination that is the target of the lottery in the internal lottery performed by the main control unit 41 will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8.

The lottery target combination is a combination that is the target of the internal lottery executed by the slot machine 1. The internal lottery is a process executed by the main control unit 41 to determine a symbol combination (a winning combination that allows winning) for derivation. If the derivation of the symbol combination is permitted by the internal lottery, the winning combination corresponding to the symbol combination is won.

FIG. 7 is an example of a lottery table, in which the winning combination numbers 1 to 50 assigned to each winning combination are shown in the winning combination number column, and the name of the winning combination is shown in the lottery target combination column. In the column, the lottery target roles to be drawn are shown for each type of game state ("○" indicates that the lottery target role, and "-" indicates that the lottery target role is not. (Indicated), the presence or absence of the setting difference is indicated in the setting difference column (corresponding items are indicated by circles), and the advantageous section transition / AT lottery column indicates the presence or absence of the AT lottery at the time of or after the transition to the advantageous section. It is shown (corresponding ones are indicated by circles), and the main notification timing column indicates whether it is the first notification or the second notification (the corresponding ones are indicated by circles).

As shown in FIG. 7, the lottery target roles include BB cherry, BB bell, middle cherry 1, middle cherry 2, strong cherry 1, strong cherry 2, strong cherry 3, weak cherry 1, and weak cherry 2.
, Weak Cherry 3, Weak Cherry 4, Watermelon 1, Watermelon 2, Watermelon 3, Watermelon 4, BB + Middle Cherry 1, BB + Middle Cherry 2, BB + Strong Cherry 1, BB + Strong Cherry 2, BB +
Strong cherry 3, BB, bell, left bell 1, left bell 2, left bell 3, left bell 4, middle bell 1, middle bell 2, middle bell 3, middle bell 4, right bell 1, right bell 2, right bell 3, right bell 4, 1 piece role, cherry replay 1, cherry replay 2, watermelon play 1, watermelon play 2, normal replay, ascending replay 1, ascending replay 2, ascending replay 3, ascending replay 4, ascending Includes roll replay 5, ascending roll replay 6, maintain roll replay 1, maintain roll replay 2, maintain roll replay 3, maintain roll replay 4, maintain roll replay 5, and maintain roll replay 6. A winning combination number is assigned to each lottery target combination in advance, and in the internal lottery table, the winning combination is arranged in order from the top with the largest assigned winning combination number.

The main control unit 41 performs an internal lottery when the start switch 7 is operated after setting the bet number. In the internal lottery process described later, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the winning combination has been won in order from the lottery target combination having the largest combination number. For example, in the internal lottery process, the main control unit 4
1 acquires a random number value from an integer within a predetermined range (0 to 65535). Each lottery target combination is assigned in advance a number of determination values according to a game state and a set value from among integers within a predetermined range (0 to 65535). For example, the middle cherry 1 is assigned 4 as the number of determination values in any RT state. The main control unit 41 adds the number of determination values to the acquired random number values in order from the lottery target combination having the largest combination number, and the addition result overflows (
When it exceeds 65535), the lottery target combination of the number of determination values that was the addition target at that time is determined as the winning combination. In this way, the main control unit 41 performs an internal lottery for each lottery target combination in descending order of the combination number assigned in advance.

In this embodiment, when the result of adding the number of determination values of the lottery target combination to the acquired random number value overflows in the internal lottery, the main control unit 41 selects the lottery target combination of the determination value number. Although the winning combination is determined, the winning combination may be determined based on the result of an operation other than addition in the internal lottery. For example, the winning combination may be determined in a predetermined order (for example, from the acquired random number value).
The number of judgment values of the lottery target winning combination is subtracted in descending order of the winning combination number), and when the subtraction result falls below a predetermined value (for example, 0, etc.), the lottery of the judgment value that was the subtraction target at that time is drawn. The configuration may be such that the target role is determined as the winning combination.

Each lottery target combination is divided into categories and assigned a combination number. The category in this embodiment means a group classified according to the nature, role, function, or the like of the lottery target combination. For example, in the categories in this embodiment, the category to be drawn during BB, the category to win the advantageous section, the category not to win the advantageous section, the category with the setting difference, the category without the setting difference, and the timing of the main notification are notified in advance. Category, category where the timing of the main notification can be post-notification, category where the winning probability (number of judgment values) does not change according to the RT state, category where the winning probability (number of judgment values) changes according to the RT state, Includes a special role category, a small role category, a replay role category, and a push order role category. The combination of the category that wins the advantageous section is assigned a combination number with a larger number than the combination of the category that does not win the advantageous section. Specifically, for the lottery target combination of the category that is the target of the lottery during non-BB, the combination number 35 is assigned to the transfer target combination that is transferred to the advantageous section by winning the advantageous section.
~ 48 is assigned, and the winning combination numbers 1 to 34 are assigned to the winning combination that is not the transfer target combination.
As a result, the transfer target combination is given priority to the internal lottery over the combination that is not the transfer target combination.

Of the transition target roles to which the role numbers 35 to 48 are assigned, the role of the category in which the timing of the main notification is the first notification is a combination number having a larger number than the combination of the category in which the timing of the main notification can be the second notification. Is assigned. Specifically, role numbers 38 to 48 are assigned to the roles in the category where the timing of the main notification is the first notification, and role numbers 35 to 37 are assigned to the roles in the category where the timing of the main notification can be the second notification. Has been done.

Among the roles that are not the transfer target roles to which the combination numbers 1 to 34 are assigned, the winning probability (number of judgment values) of the combination in the category in which the winning probability (number of judgment values) does not change according to the game state has the winning probability (number of judgment values). A role number with a higher number is assigned than a role in a changing category. In particular,
Role numbers 13 to 31 for the roles in the category where the winning probability (number of judgment values) does not change according to the game state.
, And the winning probabilities (number of determination values) change according to the game state, and the winning combinations 1 to 12 are assigned to the winning combinations.

Further, on the premise of the above-mentioned rule for assigning the combination number, the combination number having a larger number is assigned in the order of the special combination category, the small combination category, and the replaying combination category. still,
Roles of the same type (eg, cherry, watermelon, push order bell, ascending replay, maintenance replay, etc.) are grouped so that the numbers in the role number are consecutive.

As shown in FIG. 7, the combination of the category without the setting difference can be the transfer target combination, but the combination of the category with the setting difference is not the transfer target combination. For example, the strong cherry 1 having the role number 46 and the BB + strong cherry 1 having the role number 35 are the roles in the category with no setting difference, and are defined as the transfer target roles. On the other hand, the BB + strong cherry 2 with the combination number 33 is a combination in a category with a setting difference, and is not defined as a transfer target combination. Similarly, other roles with different settings are not defined as transition target roles. In addition, even if the combination is in the category with no setting difference, it may not be defined as the transfer target combination. For example, BB + strong cherry 3 with a combination number 32 is a combination in a category with no setting difference, but is not defined as a transfer target combination.

Strong cherry 1, strong cherry 2, and strong cherry 3 are all roles that can derive a symbol combination of upward-sloping cherries. Whether or not you win is different. For example, the strong cherry 1 of the winning combination number 46 is a winning combination with no BB winning, no setting difference, and an advantageous section winning. BB + strong cherry 1 with a role number 35 is a role with a BB win, no setting difference, and an advantageous section win. BB + strong cherry 2 with role number 33
It is a role with BB winning, setting difference, and no advantageous section winning. The BB + strong cherry 3 with the winning combination number 32 is a winning combination with no BB winning, no setting difference, and no advantageous section winning. In this way, the strong cherry combination that can derive the symbol combination of the rising cherry is the combination that determines either the BB winning or the advantageous section winning.

FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining a combination of winning combinations that are allowed to be won by the winning combination. As shown in FIG. 8, each lottery target combination is a combination of a single or a plurality of winning combinations, and when one lottery target combination is won in the internal lottery, the winning combination included in the lottery target combination is won. Will be done.

For example, in any of the middle tier cherries 1 and 2, the middle tier cherry is included. Therefore, regardless of which of the middle tier cherries 1 and 2 is won, the cherry symbol stops in the middle tier of the left reel 2L according to the operation timing of the stop switch 8L. Also, Cherry Replay 1
Both of 2 and 2 include cherry replay. For this reason, Cherry Replay 1
Regardless of which of 2 and 2 is won, the cherry symbol stops in the middle of the left reel 2L according to the operation timing of the stop switch 8L.

[Reel control]
Next, the reel control performed by the main control unit 41 when the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 are won in the internal lottery is based on FIG. explain.
Hereinafter, the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 may be collectively referred to as a push order bell.

The main control unit 41 controls the reel stop when any of the push order bells (left bells 1 to 4, middle bells 1 to 4, right bells 1 to 4) is won in the internal lottery, and the left bells 1 to 1 to 4. The stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated in a predetermined operation mode (in this embodiment, the operation order) according to the middle bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4, and the corresponding operation mode is applicable. Control is performed so that the symbol combination of the winning combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped at the winning line LN (see FIG. 9).

As a result, if any of the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 are won, the right-down bell is performed by performing the stop operation in the operation order according to the type of the winning combination. Alternatively, while the middle bell always wins, the upper bell may win, but the upper bell may not win by performing a stop operation in an operation order other than the operation order according to the type of winning combination. Therefore, when the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 are won, the expected value of the number of medals to be paid out is changed depending on whether or not the medals are operated in the operation order according to the type of winning combination. Can be done. In the following, when the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 are won, the operation mode that can surely generate the prize of the middle bell (when the left bells 1 to 4 are won, Left first stop operation, middle bell 1
When ~ 4 is won, the middle first stop operation, and when the right bells 1 to 4 are won, the right first stop operation) may be referred to as a correct answer procedure.

The main control unit 41 controls the ascending / rolling replay 1 in the reel stop control when any of the push order replays (ascending / rolling replays 1 to 6, maintenance rolling replays 1 to 6) is won in the internal lottery.
~ 6, maintenance roll replay 1 ~ 6 predetermined operation mode (in this embodiment, operation order)
By operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R, control is performed so that the symbol combination of the winning combination corresponding to the corresponding operation mode is stopped at the winning line LN (see FIG. 10).

As a result, if any of the maintenance roll replays 1 to 6 is won, by performing the stop operation in the operation order according to the type of winning combination, the normal replay will always win a prize, but the type of winning combination will be selected. By performing the stop operation in an operation order other than the corresponding operation order, the fall replay 2 wins a prize. For this reason, when the maintenance transfer replays 1 to 6 are won, the gaming state is shifted to RT1 or maintained at RT3 without shifting to RT1, depending on whether or not the operations are performed in the operation order according to the type of winning combination. Can be done. In the following, when the maintenance roll replays 1 to 6 are won, the operation mode that can surely generate the winning of the normal replay (when the maintenance roll replay 1 is won, the left middle right (forward push), the maintenance roll replay When 2 is won, left and right middle (pinch push), when 3 is won, middle left and right (middle left push), when 4 is won, middle right left (middle right push), maintenance roll replay When 5 is won, right, middle, left (reverse push), and when maintenance roll replay 6 is won, right, middle, left (reverse push)) may be called the correct answer procedure.

[About the game section]
The main control unit 41 can control a plurality of types of game sections as a concept of a state different from the game state (RT state). The game section includes a normal section, an advantageous section, and a waiting section.

In the normal section, the stop switch 8L, which is advantageous for the player according to the result of the internal lottery,
It is a section in which navigation information that can specify the operation mode of 8C and 8R cannot be notified. The advantageous section is a section in which navigation information can be notified, and is a section having a performance related to an instruction function (navigation) for instructing the player of the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R. In the advantageous section, the navigation that generates a prize to obtain the maximum number of payouts is executed at least once. Specifically, when the above-mentioned push order bell is won, a navigation system for notifying the correct answer procedure is executed. The advantageous section is a section (state) that is more advantageous to the player than the normal section in that the navigation in which the prize is generated to obtain the maximum number of payouts is executed at least once.

After changing the setting, the main control unit 41 first controls the normal section, and then controls the advantageous section based on the determination of the transition to the advantageous section. The main control unit 41 determines the transition to the advantageous section when a predetermined condition is satisfied. In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 performs an advantageous section lottery to determine whether or not to shift from the normal section to the advantageous section when the transition target combination is won in the internal lottery in the normal section, and the advantageous section is performed. By winning the lottery, the transition to the advantageous section will be decided. Among the above-mentioned lottery target roles, the transfer target roles include BB cherry, middle cherry 1, 2, strong cherry 1, weak cherry 1-4, watermelon 1-4, cherry replay 1, 2, and watermelon play 1, 2. Is included. Further, the middle cherries 1, 2 and the strong cherries 1 are roles that can be won at the same time as the BB.

The main control unit 41 can control a plurality of control states in an advantageous section.
The control state in the advantageous section includes a CZ, a normal AT, an advantageous AT, and a special AT, and the main control unit 41 is adapted to control to any one of these control states in the advantageous section.

Among the roles to be transferred in the internal lottery in the normal section, strong cherries 1, 2, weak cherries 1, 2,
If any of watermelon 1, 2, cherry replay 1, 2, watermelon play 1, 2, BB + strong cherry 1 is won, in the advantageous section lottery, it is determined whether or not to shift to CZ as an advantageous section. On the other hand, when any of the middle cherry 1, middle cherry 2, BB + middle cherry 1, and BB + middle cherry 2 is won in the internal lottery in the normal section, the game shifts to the normal AT as an advantageous section in the advantageous section lottery. It is decided whether or not to let it. That is, the middle tier cherries 1 and 2 are the roles in which the grant of AT is confirmed by winning in the advantageous section lottery. By winning in the advantageous section lottery, the transition to the advantageous section (CZ or normal AT) will be decided. The decision to move to an advantageous section is also called winning the advantageous section.

CZ is in a state where the degree of advantage regarding control to AT is higher than that in the normal section. The high degree of advantage regarding control to AT means that the transition to AT is more likely to be decided than in the normal section, and that the AT game, which is the right to control AT, is granted more than in the normal section. Can be mentioned.

AT (normal AT, advantageous AT, and special AT) has a higher degree of advantage than CZ. For example, in AT, the period during which navigation can be executed is guaranteed longer than in CZ. Alternatively, in AT, the number of times that navigation can be executed is guaranteed more than in CZ. In this way, since the AT is guaranteed to have a longer navigation execution period than the CZ, for example, it is possible to increase the number of games in which the right-down bell or the middle bell is won when the push order bell is won, and the degree of advantage over the CZ. Will be higher.

The normal AT, the advantageous AT, and the special AT have different probability of adding the number of AT games.
The special AT has a higher probability of adding the number of AT games than the normal AT and the advantageous AT, and is guaranteed to have a longer period in which the navigation can be executed than the normal AT and the advantageous AT. Advantageous AT is usually AT
The probability of adding the number of AT games is higher than that of normal AT, and the period during which navigation can be executed is guaranteed longer than that of normal AT. In the advantageous section, if a predetermined condition is satisfied, from CZ, usually A
The rank goes up step by step in the order of T, advantageous AT, and special AT. For example, in the advantageous section, a lottery related to the instruction function is performed based on the result of the internal lottery performed during the CZ, and if the lottery related to the instruction function is won, the AT is controlled.

In the normal section, when the BB is won, the control to the advantageous section is controlled until the BB is won. In the waiting section, when the BB is won, it is controlled to the advantageous section.

If it is controlled to the advantageous section, it shifts to the normal section based on the condition that the predetermined end condition is satisfied. The predetermined end condition includes a condition that is satisfied when the numerical value updated during the advantageous section reaches a specified value regardless of the type of the advantageous section. In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 counts the number of digestion games (also referred to as the number of advantageous sections G) in the advantageous section. When the number of advantageous sections G reaches 1500 games, the main control unit 41 initializes all the data related to the advantageous sections, and ends the running advantageous section to shift to the normal section. In this case, for example, when the advantageous section being executed is CZ, CZ ends even if the number of CZ games still remains. Further, for example, when the advantageous section being executed is a normal AT, the AT ends even if the number of AT games still remains.

When the number of advantageous sections G reaches 1500 games, the advantageous section is shifted to the normal section and the initial game state (RT0) after the setting change is controlled.

Further, the predetermined end condition includes a condition that can be satisfied before the number of advantageous sections G reaches 1500 games and is satisfied when the right to control the advantageous section is lost.
The right to control the advantageous section includes the number of CZ games for controlling CZ, the number of AT games for controlling AT, and the like. In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 is a CZ.
When the number of games for controlling the advantageous section such as the number of games and the number of AT games reaches 0, the advantageous section being executed ends and the normal section is started.

[About main notification]
When the transition to the advantageous section is determined, the main control unit 41 lights the advantageous section LED 25, and further lights the eighth segment (see FIG. 11A) of the game auxiliary display 12.
It is also referred to as a main notification that the eighth segment of the advantageous section LED 25 and the game auxiliary display 12 is lit to indicate that the advantageous section is in the advantageous section. After the main notification is performed, it is controlled to an advantageous section. By performing the main notification, the player is suggested that the section is advantageous.

The main notification includes a first notification and a second notification. The advance notification is performed in the game in which the transition to the advantageous section is decided. The timing at which the advance notification is performed is also referred to as the advance notification timing. Specifically, the advance notification timing is set by setting the bet number of the next game of the game in which the transition to the advantageous section is decided after the transition to the advantageous section is decided (the same applies to the automatic bet number setting by the replay winning). Any timing is sufficient until it is given. For example, the advance notification timing is the timing when the third stop operation of the game determined to shift to the advantageous section is released and the symbol combination is derived (
For example, the timing at which the last operated stop switch among the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is released) may be used.

The post-notification is a notification that can be performed when the decision to shift to the advantageous section is made together with the BB winning and is controlled to the standby section. The timing at which the post-notification is performed is also referred to as the post-notification timing. Specifically, the post-notification timing may be any timing after the BB symbol combination is derived. For example, the post-notification timing may be the timing when the BB symbol combination is derived and the BB prize is won.

In this embodiment, while the transition to the advantageous section is determined, if the BB is not won in the internal lottery, the advance notification is performed at the in-game timing (advance notification timing) won in the advantageous section lottery.

Further, in this embodiment, when the transition to the advantageous section is decided and the BB is won by the internal lottery, the transition to the advantageous section is made according to the type of the transfer target combination that triggered the decision to shift to the advantageous section. There are cases where the advance notification is performed at the timing in the game (pre-notification timing) in which the transition is determined, and there are cases where the post-notification is performed at the timing after the BB symbol combination is derived (post-notification timing).

When the advance notification is performed, the advantageous section LED2 is controlled to the advantageous section in the subsequent interior.
The 8th segment of 5 and the game auxiliary display 12 keeps lighting. In the advantageous section in the interior, navigation can be executed as a process related to the instruction function. However, the lottery related to the instruction function (for example, AT lottery or additional lottery) is not executed in the advantageous section in the inside. On the other hand, when the post-notification is performed without the pre-notification, the inside is controlled to the standby section. In the waiting section inside, the processing related to the instruction function is not executed. That is, in the waiting section in the inside, neither the lottery related to the navigation and the instruction function (for example, the AT lottery or the additional lottery) is executed. After that, post-notification is performed together with the BB winning, and in the subsequent BB, the advantageous section LED 25 is continuously lit under the control of the advantageous section. In the advantageous section in the BB, a lottery related to the navigation and the instruction function can be executed as the processing related to the instruction function.

When the main control unit 41 ends the advantageous section and shifts to the normal section, the main control unit 41 turns off the eighth segment of the advantageous section LED 25 and the game auxiliary display 12. Then, the eighth segment of the advantageous section LED 25 and the game auxiliary display 12 is controlled to be turned off during the normal section.

[About navigation]
In the advantageous section, as shown in FIG. 11A, the main control unit 41 has a correct answer procedure according to the lottery target combination (hereinafter, may be referred to as a navigation target combination) of the navigation target won in the internal lottery process. A process for executing a navigation for notifying the navigation information (for example, the push order) that can be specified by using the game assist display 12 is executed. The operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R includes the order of operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R (pushing order) and the timing of operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R (operation timing). Is done.

When notifying the navigation information, the lighting mode of the game assist display 12 is controlled to be lit in a lighting mode (for example, a mode of displaying numbers and symbols) according to the winning navigation target combination. Further, when notifying the navigation information, the eighth segment of the game auxiliary display 12 (FIG. 11 (b).
) By controlling the lighting state, it is notified that the navigation information is displayed. The main control unit 41 controls the lighting mode of the game auxiliary display 12 so as to display the number of medals to be paid out when paying out the medals accompanying the winning of the small winning combination, and when an error occurs, the main control unit 41 controls the lighting mode. Is designed to control the lighting mode of the game auxiliary display 12 so as to display an error code indicating the type of error that has occurred, and when displaying the number of payouts or the error code, the game auxiliary display 12 is displayed. By controlling the 8th segment of the above to the non-lighting state, it is shown that the displayed information is not the navigation information.

Further, when the navigation target combination is won in the advantageous section, the main control unit 41 outputs a push order command that can specify the correct answer procedure corresponding to the navigation target combination. Sub control unit 91
Executes navigation based on the push order command. As shown in FIG. 11A, the sub-control unit 91 indicates an image showing navigation information (for example, push order) (for example, a number indicating the push order and displayed corresponding to the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R). (Image, etc.) is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and navigation is executed by staging. Navigation by the effect executed by the sub control unit 91 is called a navigation effect. In the advantageous section, the sub-control unit 91 uses the liquid crystal display 51 to execute a process for notifying navigation information (for example, push order) capable of specifying the correct answer procedure according to the push order command. In this way, the navigation is executed by notifying the information that can specify the correct answer procedure in both the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91.

When the player performs the stop operation in the stop order according to the navigation, when any of the promotion replays 1 to 6 is won in RT1, the promotion replay can be intentionally won and transferred to RT3. A downward-sloping bell or a middle bell can be won, and when any of the maintenance roll replays 1 to 6 is won in RT3, the normal replay is intentionally won, the fall replay 2 is avoided, and the RT3 is won. It can be maintained, and when any of the push order bells is won in RT0-4, the right-down bell or the middle bell can be won and 8 medals can be surely won, and the push order in RT3. When any of the bells is won, it is possible to win a right-down bell or a middle bell to avoid the stoppage of the missed eye and maintain RT3.

Next, the control contents of various processes performed by the main control unit 41 will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 to 18.

[Main processing and timer interrupt processing]
The control content of the main process performed by the main control unit 41 as the basic process will be described with reference to FIG. The main process is repeatedly executed for each unit of game. And one cycle of the main process corresponds to one unit of the game.

The main control unit 41 repeatedly loops the processing according to the control state until the detection state of the various switches connected to the game control board 40 changes as the main processing, and responds to the change in the detection state of the various switches. Execute the process of migrating in stages.

As shown in FIG. 12, in the main process, first, a game start waiting process (Sa1) that waits until the game is started is performed. In the game start waiting process, a process is performed in which the game waits in a state in which the bet number can be set, a predetermined number of bets are set according to the game state, and the game is started when the start switch 7 is operated. Further, when the start switch 7 is operated, the random number value for the internal lottery is latched and stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c.

Next, an internal lottery process for performing an internal lottery is performed as the game is started (Sa2).
.. In the internal lottery process, as will be described later, whether to allow winning of each lottery target combination based on the random number value for the internal lottery latched when the start switch 7 is operated in the step of Sa1 (that is, display). Performs the process of deciding whether or not to allow the derivation of the result.
In addition, if the lottery target combination with a different setting is won as the lottery result of the internal lottery, or if there is a loss in which neither combination is won, the lottery result of the internal lottery in the game is the winning of the lottery target combination with the setting difference. Flag that can identify the fact that it is lost (missing and setting difference flag)
Is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c.

Then, after performing the internal lottery process in the step of Sa2, it is determined whether or not the flag with loss and setting difference is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c (Sa3), and the flag with loss and setting difference is set. If it is determined that there is no BB first hit flag, BB
It is determined whether or not the internal flag of is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c (Sa4, S).
b5). When it is determined that the BB first hit flag is set in the step of Sa4, it is determined that the BB first hit flag is not set in the step of Sa4, and the internal flag of BB is set in the step of Sa5. If it is determined that there is no such thing,
As will be described later, a lottery type setting process for setting a type (lottery type) according to the result of the internal lottery is performed (Sa6). The BB first hit flag is cleared in the game end setting process performed at the end of the game. Further, the internal middle flag is cleared when it is determined that the BB that has been won and carried over has won a prize in the game end setting process performed at the end of the game after the game.

It is determined that the flag with loss and setting difference is not set in the step of Sa3, and it is determined.
After performing the lottery type setting process, and when it is determined that the flag with loss and setting difference is set in the step of Sa3, it is advantageous to execute the advantageous section lottery to determine whether or not to shift to the advantageous section. The section lottery process is performed (Sa7). Further, when it is determined that the BB first hit flag is not set in the step of Sa4 and it is determined that the internal middle flag of BB is set in the step of Sa5, the lottery type setting process in the step of Sa6 is performed. Instead, the process proceeds to the step of Sa7, and the advantageous section lottery process is performed (Sa5).

In the advantageous section processing, a lottery type (in this embodiment, lottery types 2 to 4) that can specify that the transition target combination has been won is set when the game section is controlled to the normal section. When it is specified, an advantageous section lottery is performed to determine whether or not to shift to an advantageous section (CZ or normal AT) based on the lottery type. And by winning the advantageous section lottery,
The game section is shifted to the advantageous section, and the control related to the advantageous section (for example, the control for performing the main notification, etc.) is started. On the other hand, if the advantageous section lottery is not won, the game section is maintained in the normal section and the control regarding the advantageous section is not performed. In addition, when a lottery type that can specify that the transition target combination has not been won or a lottery type that can specify that the lottery target combination with a setting difference has been won is specified, it is related to the advantageous section lottery. The advantageous section processing is terminated without performing the processing or the processing for shifting to the advantageous section.

Then, after the advantageous section lottery process is performed in the step of Sa7, the AT lottery process for performing the lottery related to the AT control is performed (Sa8). A lottery type that can specify that the transition target combination has been won when the game section is controlled to an advantageous section (in this embodiment, lottery types 2 to 4).
When it is specified that is set, a promotion lottery is performed to determine whether or not to promote the type of advantageous section, and each time the promotion lottery is won, the advantageous section is selected as CZ, normal AT, or advantageous AT.
, Control to promote in the order of special AT. For example, if the advantageous section is controlled to CZ and the player wins the promotion lottery, the game is promoted to a normal AT and a predetermined number of AT games (for example, 40 games per set) are given. , The control of the above-mentioned AT is started. Further, for example, when the advantageous section is controlled to the normal AT or the advantageous AT and the promotion lottery is won, the type of the advantageous section is promoted by one to shift to the advantageous AT or the special AT, and the AT.
Continue to control. Further, for example, when the advantageous section is controlled to the special AT and the promotion lottery is won, the type of the advantageous section is maintained as the special AT.

Further, in the AT lottery process, the lottery type (in this embodiment, the lottery type 2) indicating that the transition target combination has been won when the advantageous section is controlled to any of the normal AT, the advantageous AT, and the special AT. When it is specified that ~ 4) is set, an additional lottery is performed to determine whether or not to add a predetermined number of AT games (for example, 40 games per set) according to the lottery type. .. Then, by winning the additional lottery, the number of AT games of a predetermined number is added to A.
It is controlled so that the control of T is continued. If a lottery type that can specify that the transfer target combination has not been won or a lottery type that can specify that the lottery target combination with a different setting has been won is specified, AT lottery or addition is added. The AT lottery process is terminated without performing the process related to the lottery.

Then, after the AT lottery process is performed in the step of Sa8, the internal winning command transmission process for transmitting the internal winning command or the like according to the result of the internal lottery is performed (Sa9). In the internal winning command transmission process, it is possible to identify the group of winning winning combination (for example, push order bell, etc. (see FIG. 7)) based on the winning number (including loss) of the winning combination in the internal lottery. The internal winning command is controlled to be transmitted to the sub control unit 91. Further, when the game section is an advantageous section and the number of remaining games of the AT is 1 or more and the navigation notification is performed, the sub-control unit 91 issues an operation mode command capable of specifying the operation mode notified by the navigation notification. Control to send to.

Then, after performing the internal winning command transmission process in the step of Sa7, the reel 2
Reel control process that controls to rotate and stop L, 2C, 2R (Sa10), game end setting process that makes various settings when all reels 2L, 2C, 2R are stopped and the game ends (game end setting process) After performing Sa11), the process returns to the game start waiting process of the step of Sa1 and each of the above processes is sequentially and repeatedly executed.

In the main process, a command storage process that generates a command according to the progress of the game and sets it in the command queue is executed as appropriate, and the set command is a command executed in the subsequent timer interrupt process (main). It is configured to be transmitted to the sub-control unit 91 by the transmission process.

The timer interrupt process (main) is performed at regular time intervals by the main control unit 41 (in this embodiment,
It is a process performed every 0.56 milliseconds). The execution interval of the timer interrupt process is set to a time longer than the total time of the time in which the process repeated according to the control state in the main process completes and the execution time of the timer interrupt process, and this time and the next time. The process that repeats according to the control state always goes through at least one cycle with the timer interrupt process.

In this way, in the main processing, the flag with loss and setting difference is RA due to the internal lottery processing.
It is determined whether or not the flag is set in the predetermined area of M41c, and if the flag is set, control is performed so that the lottery type setting process is not performed. As a result, when the loss and the setting difference flag are set, the lottery types 1 to 4 are not set by the lottery type setting process, but are initialized at the start of the internal lottery process. It is controlled to maintain 0.

In addition, in the main processing, the flag with loss and setting difference is set to RAM41 due to the internal lottery processing.
It is determined whether or not it is set in the predetermined area of c, and the lottery type setting process is performed on the condition that the loss and the setting difference flag are not set, and the winning number set in the internal lottery process is set. It is controlled so that the lottery types 1 to 4 corresponding to the lottery types are set.

Further, in the main process, it is determined whether or not the BB internal middle flag and the BB first hit flag are set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and the BB first hit flag is not set.
When the internal middle flag is set, by controlling not to perform the lottery type setting process, the lottery types 1 to 4 are not set by the lottery type setting process, and the lottery type 0 is maintained.
When both the BB internal middle flag and the BB first hit flag are set, the lottery type setting process is performed and the internal lottery process is performed on the condition that neither the BB internal middle flag nor the BB first hit flag is set. It is controlled to update to the lottery types 1 to 4 according to the winning number set in.

[Internal lottery process and internal lottery table]
Next, the control content of the internal lottery process performed by the main control unit 41 of this embodiment and the internal lottery table used in the internal lottery process will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 to 16.

The internal lottery process is a process for determining whether or not any of the above-mentioned lottery target combinations has been won, and is for an internal lottery latched when the start switch 7 is operated in the game start waiting process in the main process. A predetermined determination value for each lottery target combination is read from the internal lottery table and sequentially added to the random number value of the above, and the numerical value obtained by the addition is a predetermined number (655 in this embodiment).
If it exceeds 36), it is determined that the lottery target combination corresponding to the added determination value has been won, while when the determination values of all the lottery target combinations have been added to the random number values for the internal lottery, the addition is performed. When the obtained numerical value does not exceed a predetermined number (65536 in this embodiment), it is determined that none of the lottery target combinations is won, that is, a so-called loss.

The ROM 41b included in the main control unit 41 of this embodiment has a plurality of storage areas.
The internal lottery table used in the internal lottery process is pre-registered in the ROM 41b over a plurality of storage areas. One address is allocated in advance to each storage area of the ROM 41b for each 1-byte area, and it is possible to specify a specific storage area of the ROM 41b based on the specific address, and the main control unit. In the internal lottery process, the 41 can specify a predetermined area of the ROM 41b based on a predetermined address and acquire predetermined data registered in advance as an internal lottery table in the predetermined area.

As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, the internal lottery table is an initial setting data table in which initial setting data used for initial setting of the internal lottery process is stored, and a determination value data in which determination value data is stored. It is composed of a search data table that stores search data for searching the judgment value data in the table and judgment value data table, and is specified by the internal lottery table index (the first address na of the internal lottery table). RO
It is stored over a plurality of continuous storage areas after the storage area of M41b.

Further, in the internal lottery table, the initial setting data table is stored from the storage area of ROM 41b specified by the internal lottery table index, which is the start address of the internal lottery table, to a predetermined number of storage areas, and the initial setting data table is stored. The search data table is stored in the storage area behind the data table, and the determination value data table is stored in the storage area behind the search data table.

In addition, the search data and the determination value data are set for each lottery target combination, and the predetermined combination number (
For example, the search data of the lottery target combination in 48) is a predetermined winning number (1) that matches the predetermined combination number.
For example, the determination value data of the lottery target combination of the predetermined combination number (for example, 48) stored in the search data table as the search data of 48) is the determination of the predetermined winning number (for example, 48) that matches the predetermined combination number. It is stored in the judgment value data table as value data.

As shown in FIG. 13, in the initial setting data table, the initial value of the winning number in the non-BB,
Search data table indicating the difference value up to the address immediately before the start address of the search table in which the search data in the non-BB is stored Initial address specification data 1, the initial value of the winning number in the BB, the search in the BB The search data table initial address designation data 2 and the like indicating the difference value up to the address immediately before the start address of the search table in which the data is stored are stored in advance. The initial value of the winning number is the maximum value of the winning combination of the lottery target winning combination in the non-BB and BB, and in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the lottery target winning combination in the non-BB The maximum value of the winning combination is 48, and the maximum value of the winning combination of the lottery target in the BB is 50. The initial value of the winning number in the non-BB is stored in the storage area of the ROM 41b specified by the internal lottery table index, and the search data table initial address designation data 1 is stored in the storage area of the next address of the storage area. The initial value of the winning number in the BB is stored in the storage area of the next address of the storage area, and the search data table initial address designation data 2 is stored in the storage area of the next address of the storage area.

Further, as shown in FIG. 13, in the search data table, search data for specifying the address of the determination value data table in which the determination value data of each lottery target combination is stored is stored in advance for each lottery target combination. There is. The search data of each lottery target combination is arranged in the order of the combination number of the lottery target combination, and the search data of the lottery target combination having a large combination number is stored in the front side of the storage area of the search data table, and the combination number. The search data of the small lottery target combination is arranged so as to be stored in the rear side of the storage area of the search data table. In addition, when the lottery target roles are arranged in descending order of the combination numbers, the lottery target combination is the lottery target combination in the BB, the lottery target combination related to the advantageous section, the lottery target combination related to the waiting section, and the advantageous section. Of the lottery target roles that are not related to the game state, the judgment value data does not change according to the game state, and among the lottery target roles that are not related to the advantageous section, the judgment value data changes according to the game state. The lottery target combinations are arranged so as to be aligned, and the search data of each lottery target combination is also arranged in the order in the search data table.

Further, in the search data table, the determination value data varies depending on the game state among the lottery target combination in the BB, the lottery target combination related to the advantageous section, the lottery target combination related to the waiting section, and the lottery target combination not related to the advantageous section. For the lottery target roles that do not, while only the search data of these lottery target roles are sequentially arranged, the lottery target roles whose determination value data fluctuates according to the game state among the lottery target roles that are not related to the advantageous section. Can identify the variable flag data (FF) that can specify that the determination value data fluctuates according to the game state, and the address of ROM 41b in which the search data is stored, together with the search data of each lottery target combination. Difference data is arranged. Hereinafter, the variable flag data and the difference data may be collectively referred to as search data identification data.

Further, in the search data table, among the lottery target roles not related to the advantageous section, for the lottery target role whose determination value data fluctuates according to the game state, the search data identification data group of each lottery target combination is the lottery target combination. It is located in front of the search data group.

Next, the control contents of the internal lottery process will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16.

As shown in FIG. 15, in the internal lottery process, first, the lottery type data set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c, which is the data set by the lottery type setting process described later, is initialized to 0 (Sb1). After that, a game state determination process is performed (Sb2) to determine whether the currently controlled game state is RT0 to 4 or BB, and the game state data capable of specifying the current game state is specified in the RAM 41c. Set in the area.

Then, 0 is set in the A register as the addition value (A) used in the addition process described later (Sb).
3). After that, with reference to the game state data, it is determined whether or not the current game state is BB (Sb4), and if it is determined to be BB, the added value set in the A register in the step of Sb3 (Sb4). While A) is corrected to a predetermined number (2 in this embodiment) (Sb5), if it is determined that it is not BB, the added value (A) set in the A register in the step of Sb3 is maintained at 0.

Then, the data (internal lottery table index (starting address of the internal lottery table)) registered in advance in the predetermined area of the ROM 41b is acquired, and the current position address (HL) is obtained.
Is set in the H register and the L register (Sb6). ROM41b in the H register
The high-order byte of the address indicating the predetermined area of is set, and the low-order byte of the address is set in the L register. Hereinafter, the H register and the L register may be collectively referred to as an HL register.

In the step of Sb6, after the address value which is the internal lottery table index is set as the current position address (HL) in the HL register, the addition process is performed (Sb7). In the addition process, the addition value (A) set in the A register at the start of the process is added to the HL register in which the current position address (HL) is set, so that the current position address (H) is added.
The process of advancing the value of L) by the added value (A) is performed. Further, in the addition process, the data stored in the storage area of the ROM 41b specified by the current position address (HL) after the addition is acquired and set in the A register.

By performing the addition process in the step of Sb7, the current position address (HL) is obtained from the start address of the internal lottery table specified by the internal lottery table index.
It will be advanced by the value of the added value (A) set in the step of Sb3 or Sb5, and if the currently controlled gaming state is not BB, the current position address (HL) is advanced by 0 and the internal lottery is performed. The start address of the table (address na in this embodiment) is the current position address (HL), while when the gaming state is BB, the current position address (
HL) is advanced by a predetermined number (2 in this embodiment), and an address (address nb in this embodiment) advanced by a predetermined number of minutes from the start address (address na) of the internal lottery table is the current position address (HL). Will be.

Then, the current position address (HL) obtained by the addition process in the step of Sb7.
Data stored in advance in the storage area of ROM 41b corresponding to (initial value of winning number in non-BB (48 in this embodiment) or initial value of winning number in BB (50 in this embodiment)).
) Is acquired and set in the B register as the initial value of the winning number (B) (Sb8). In this embodiment, the winning number (B) matches the winning combination number of the above-mentioned lottery target combination. For example, when the winning number (B) is set to 48 and the internal lottery process is performed, the winning number (B) is set to 48. Role number 48
It means that the internal lottery process is being performed for the winning combination of.

After that, 1 is added to the HL register to advance the current position address (HL) by one (Sb9).
). Then, the data (search data table initial address designation data 1 or search data initial address designation data 2) stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b corresponding to the current position address (HL) is acquired, and the added value (A) is obtained. To the A register (Sb10)
, Perform addition processing (Sb11).

By performing the addition process in the step of Sb11, the current position address (HL) is advanced by the value of the addition value (A) from the address (address na + 1 or address nb + 1) at the start of the addition process. The added value (A) is the value of the search data table initial address specification data 1 or the search data initial address specification data 2 by the processing of the step of Sb10.
The value of is set. The search data table initial address designation data 1 corresponds to the initial value of the winning number in the non-BB in the search data table from the address (address na + 1) of the storage area in which the search data table initial address designation data 1 is stored. A value indicating the difference up to the address immediately before the address (for example, address nd) of the storage area in which the search data of the lottery target combination (lottery target combination with the combination number 48) is stored is set, and the search is performed. The data initial address designation data 2 includes a lottery target combination corresponding to the initial value of the winning number in the BB in the search data table from the address (address nb + 1) of the storage area in which the search data initial address designation data 2 is stored. A value indicating the difference up to the address immediately before the address (for example, address nc) of the storage area in which the search data of (the lottery target combination of the combination number 50) is stored is set. Therefore, by the addition process of the step of Sb11,
If the currently controlled gaming state is not BB, then the non-BB in the search data table
The address immediately before the search data address of the lottery target combination (lottery target combination of combination number 48) of the winning number (48 in this embodiment), which is the initial value, is the current position address (address nd-1).
On the other hand, when the gaming state is BB, the lottery target combination (lottery target combination of the combination number 50) of the winning number (50 in this embodiment) which is the initial value in the BB in the search data table. The address (address nc-1) immediately before the address of the search data is the current position address (H).
L).

After performing the addition process in the step of Sb11, the random number value for the internal lottery latched at the time when the start switch 7 is operated in the game start waiting process of the above-mentioned main process is acquired and stored in the IX register. Set (Sb12).

Then, the predetermined area of the RAM 41c where the loss and setting difference flag can be set by the process described later in the internal lottery process is initialized to 0, and when the loss and setting difference flag is set, the flag is set. Clear (Sb13). The loss and setting difference flag is data that can specify whether or not the lottery result of the internal lottery in the game is a winning or losing of a lottery target combination having a setting difference.

Then, 1 is added to the HL register to advance the current position address (HL) by 1 (Sb14).
). As a result, the current position address (HL) is determined according to whether or not the gaming state is BB.
The address (address nd) of the storage area in which the search data of the lottery target combination corresponding to the initial value of the winning number in the non-BB in the search data table is stored, or the initial value of the winning number in the BB in the search data table. It becomes the address (address nc) of the storage area in which the search data of the corresponding lottery target combination is stored.

Then, the value of the current position address (HL) set in the HL register is set to the RAM 41c.
It is saved by storing it in a predetermined area (for example, a stack area or the like) of (Sb15). After that, the data stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b corresponding to the current position address (HL) is acquired (Sb16), the value of the data is compared with the predetermined determination value, and the data is compared. However, it is determined whether or not the determination value of the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number (B) is the variable flag data (FF) indicating that the determination value varies depending on the gaming state (Sb1).
7).

The winning number (for example, the storage area of address nc, address nd, address ne, etc.) specified by the current position address (HL) advanced by one step of Sb14 is currently set. When the lottery target combination corresponding to B) is a combination in which the determination value data does not change according to the gaming state, for example, when the current position address (HL) is an address nc, an address nd, or the like, the lottery target combination is concerned. While the search data for specifying the determination value data of is stored in advance from the determination value data table, the lottery target combination corresponding to the currently set winning number (B) is determined value data according to the game state. In the case of a variable combination of, for example, when the current position address (HL) is the address ne or the like, the variable flag data (FF) is stored in advance.

In this embodiment, the value of the search data is set to a value smaller than FF (a hexadecimal value, which is the maximum value that can be expressed by 1-byte data), while the variable flag data is set to FF. It is set. The judgment value is the same value as the variable flag data FF (hexadecimal value).
Is set. As a result, when the data acquired in the step of Sb16 is search data other than the variable flag data (FF), the operation of subtracting the determination value from the acquired data value is performed. The calculation result is a negative value. On the other hand, when the data acquired by the step of Sb16 is the variable flag data (FF), the operation result is 0 when the operation of subtracting the determination value from the value of the acquired data is performed. It is supposed to be. In the step of Sb17, for example, the value obtained by subtracting the determination value (FF) from the data acquired in the step of Sb16 becomes a negative value, and it is specified based on the flag register that so-called carry has occurred. In some cases, there is fluctuation flag data (FF
), On the other hand, when the subtracted value becomes 0 and it is not specified that the carry has occurred, it can be determined that the flag data has fluctuation (FF).

If it is determined in the step of Sb17 that the data acquired in the step of Sb16 is variable flag data (FF), the current position address (HL) saved in the step of Sb15 is returned to the HL register. After that (Sb18), 1 is added to the HL register to advance the current position address (HL) by one (Sb19). As a result, the current position address (HL) is one of the addresses (for example, address ne) in which the variable flag data (FF) for the lottery target combination corresponding to the currently set winning number (B) is stored. It becomes a secondary address (for example, address ne + 1).

Then, the value of the current position address (HL) set in the HL register is set to the RAM 41c.
Evacuate again by storing in a predetermined area (for example, a stack area) of (Sb20).
.. After that, ROM 4 corresponding to the current position address (HL) set in the HL register.
The difference data stored in the storage area of 1b (for example, the storage area of address ne + 1) is set in the A register as the addition value (A) (Sb21), and the addition process is performed (Sb22).

By performing the addition process in the step of Sb22, the current position address (HL) is advanced by the value of the addition value (A) from the address at the start of the addition process. The added value (A) is
Due to the processing of the step of Sb21, there is a change in the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B). The flag data is stored in the primary address (for example, address ne + 1) of the address (for example, address ne) in which the flag data is stored. The existing data (difference data) is set. The data (difference data) is the address of the storage area (for example,) in which the search data at RT0 is stored for the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number (B) from the current position address (HL). It is the data which shows the difference value up to the address nf). Therefore, Sb22
RT for the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number (B) by the addition process of the step
The address (address nf) of the storage area in which the search data when the value is 0 is stored becomes the current position address (HL).

After performing the addition process in the step of Sb22, from the maximum value of the gaming state in the slot machine 1 (4 out of RT0 to 4), the current gaming state set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c by the step of Sb2 is present. The value (for example, 1 etc. when the currently controlled gaming state is RT1) is subtracted to calculate the difference value between the maximum value of the gaming state and the current value, and the difference value is added (A). ) In the A register (Sb23). After that, if the value obtained by adding 1 to the addition value (A) set in the A register in the step of Sb23 is equal to or less than the maximum value in the gaming state, the addition value set in the step of Sb23. When (A) is corrected to a value obtained by adding 1 to the value obtained by adding 1 to the added value (A) set in the step of Sb23, the value obtained by adding 1 is larger than the maximum value in the gaming state, Sb23. Processing is performed so as to correct the addition value (A) set in the step of (Sb24) to 0 (Sb24). By performing such processing, the difference value between the address of the storage area in which the search data corresponding to the current RT is stored and the current address (HL) can be set as the added value (A). Further, the added value (A) set based on the current RT value set by the step of Sb2 is a value other than the value corresponding to the RT value within the normal range (0 to 4 in this embodiment). In the case of, the added value (A) is corrected to a value (0 in this embodiment) corresponding to a predetermined RT value (RT0 in this embodiment) within the range of the normal RT value. ing. For example, when the current RT value acquired by the step of Sb2 is 5, which exceeds the maximum value of the normal RT value, Sb23 and S
By performing the process of the step b24, the added value (A) is corrected to the value corresponding to RT0 (0 in this embodiment). Further, for example, even when the current RT value is 0, which is a normal RT value, the added value (A) is a value corresponding to RT0 by performing the processing of the steps of Sb23 and Sb24 (in this embodiment). , 0).

Then, further addition processing is performed (Sb25). By performing the addition process in the step of Sb25, the current position address (HL) is advanced by the value of the addition value (A) from the address at the start of the addition process. The added value (A) is the difference value +1 between the maximum value of the gaming state and the current value (for example, the current gaming state is RT1) by the step of Sb23 and the step of Sb24.
If, 4, if the current gaming state is RT2, 3, the current gaming state is R.
2 if T3, 1) or correction value (1) or correction value (1) if the current gaming state is RT4
For example, when the current gaming state is RT0, 0) is set, and the current position address (HL) is advanced by the addition value (A) to search for the currently controlled gaming state. It will be advanced to the address of the storage area where the data is stored. Further, in the addition process, ROM 4 corresponding to the new current position address (HL) advanced by the addition value (A).
The data stored in the storage area of 1b (in this embodiment, the value of the search data of the current gaming state) is acquired.

After performing the addition process in the step of Sb25, the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number (B) is inside in the current game state based on the search data of the current game state acquired by the addition process. It is determined whether or not the item is a lottery target in the lottery (Sb26). On the other hand, when it is determined in the step of Sb17 that the data acquired in the step of Sb16 is not the flag data with fluctuation, the steps of Sb18 to Sb25 are not processed and Sb is not performed.
Based on the data acquired in the 16 steps, that is, the search data for the lottery target combination whose determination value data does not change regardless of the gaming state, the process of the step of Sb26 is performed to determine whether or not the determination value data is the lottery target.

In this embodiment, when the search data is a lottery target in the internal lottery, a value larger than a predetermined value (a value larger than 1 in this embodiment) is set, but the search data is not a lottery target in the internal lottery. In this case, a predetermined value (0 in this embodiment) is set, and by determining whether or not the search data is a predetermined value, the current winning number (B) is to be drawn. It is possible to determine whether or not the winning combination is a lottery target.

In the step of Sb26, when it is determined that the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number (B) is the lottery target in the internal lottery in the current gaming state, Sb14 as described above.
The search data stored in the storage area of the ROM 41b corresponding to the current position address (HL) set by the step of Sb25 or the step of Sb25 is acquired and set as the added value (A) (Sb27). Further, the E register in which the lower data of the winning determination data ED and the type coefficient E are set by the processing described later and the D register in which the upper data of the winning determination data ED is set are initialized and set to 0 (Sb28). ..

Then, by comparing the value of the search data acquired in the step of Sb27 with the first data boundary value of the above-mentioned determination value data table, it corresponds to the current winning number (B) specified based on the search data. It is determined whether or not the determination value data of the lottery target combination is the 1-byte data of the combination without setting difference (Sb29). When the value of the search data is smaller than the first data boundary value, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is 1-byte data having no setting difference. On the other hand, when the value of the search data is equal to or larger than the first data boundary value, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is not the 1-byte data having no setting difference.

In the step of Sb29, when it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is the 1-byte data of the setting difference-less combination, the E register is maintained in the initialized state in the step of Sb28. , Set the type coefficient E to 0 (“00” in binary display) and proceed to Sb36 described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that the determination value data is not the 1-byte data of the set difference-less combination, 1 is added to the E register to set the type coefficient E to 1 (in binary display, "0".
After updating to 1 ”) (Sb30), the value of the search data acquired in the step of Sb27 is specified based on the search data by comparing it with the second data boundary value of the above-mentioned determination value data table. It is determined whether or not the determination value data is 2-byte data having no setting difference (Sb31). When the value of the search data is larger than the first data boundary value and smaller than the second data boundary value, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is 2-byte data having no setting difference. judge. On the other hand, when the value of the search data is equal to or larger than the second data boundary value, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is not the 2-byte data having no setting difference.

If it is determined in the step of Sb31 that the determination value data specified based on the search data is 2-byte data having no setting difference, the E register is maintained in the state of being updated to 1 in the step of Sb30. Then, the type coefficient E is maintained at 1 (“01” in binary display), and the process proceeds to Sb36, which will be described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that the determination value data is not the 2-byte data of the set difference-free combination, 1 is added to the E register and the type coefficient E is set to 2 (in binary notation).
After updating to "10") (Sb32), a flag with a loss and a setting difference is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c (Sb33). After that, by comparing the value of the search data acquired in the step of Sb27 with the third data boundary value of the above-mentioned determination value data table, the determination value data specified based on the search data has a setting difference. It is determined whether or not the data is 1-byte data (Sb34). The value of the search data is larger than the second data boundary value, and the third
If it is smaller than the data boundary value, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is 1-byte data having a setting difference. On the other hand, when the value of the search data is equal to or larger than the third data boundary value, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is not the 1-byte data having a setting difference.

If it is determined in the step of Sb34 that the determination value data specified based on the search data is 1-byte data having a setting difference, the E register is maintained in the state of being updated to 2 in the step of Sb32. Then, the type coefficient E is maintained at 2 (“10” in binary display), and the process proceeds to Sb36, which will be described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that the determination value data is not the 1-byte data of the combination with the setting difference, and the determination value data is the 2-byte data of the combination with the setting difference, 1 is added to the E register to type. After updating the coefficient E to 3 (“11” in binary display) (Sb35), the process proceeds to Sb36.

As described above, in this embodiment, after the type coefficient E is initialized in the step of Sb28, the determination value data specified based on the search data is either the data with no setting difference or the data with the setting difference. It is set to a value (0 to 4) depending on whether the data is present or whether the data is 1-byte data or 2-byte data. For example, the judgment value data is the data of the role of no setting difference,
In the case of 1-byte data, the type coefficient E is set to 0 (“00” in binary display), and the judgment value data is data with no setting difference and is 2-byte data. teeth,
If the type coefficient E is set to 1 (in binary display, "01"), and the judgment value data is data with a setting difference and is 1-byte data, the type coefficient E is set to 2 (binary number). On the display, "1
If it is set to "0") and the judgment value data is data with a setting difference and is 2-byte data, the type coefficient E should be set to 3 ("11" in binary display). It has become.
Further, when the type coefficient E is set in the E register, it is set by the value of the binary number display. Thereby, when the value of the first predetermined bit (for example, the first bit) is 0 with reference to the data set in the E register, it is possible to specify that the determination value data is 1-byte data. When the value of the first predetermined bit is 1, it is possible to specify that the determination value data is 2-byte data. Further, when the value of the second predetermined bit (for example, the second bit) different from the first predetermined bit is 0 with reference to the data set in the E register, the determination value data serves as a setting difference. It is possible to specify that the data is the data of the above, and when the value of the second predetermined bit is 1, it is possible to specify that the determination value data is the data of the combination with the setting difference.

As shown in FIG. 16, in the step of Sb36, the reference address of the determination value data table stored in the predetermined area of the ROM 41b is acquired and set in the HL register.
After setting the start address of the judgment value data table for the current position address (HL) (Sb3)
6), the addition process is performed (Sb37).

By performing the addition process in the step of Sb37, the current position address (HL) is advanced by the value of the addition value (A) from the address at the start of the addition process. The added value (A) is
Since the search data of the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number is set by the step of Sb27, and the start address of the determination value data table is set to the current position address (HL) by the step of Sb36. , The current position address (HL) is advanced by the addition value (A), so that the start address of the storage area in which the determination value data of the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number is stored in the determination value data table ( For example, address ma, address mb, address mc, address md, address me, address mf, address mg.
Etc.) is the current position address (HL).

After performing the addition process in the step of Sb37, the set value check process is performed (Sb3).
8) Acquire the set value set in the current slot machine 1 in the A register. After that, by subtracting 1 from the value of the A register, the value corrected by subtracting 1 from the current set value is added (
As A), it is set in the A register (Sb39).

Then, with reference to the type coefficient E set in the E register by the steps Sb28 to Sb35 described above, the search data acquired in the step Sb27 is based on the value of the second predetermined bit of the data of the type coefficient E. It is determined whether or not the determination value data specified based on the above is the data of the combination with the setting difference (Sb40). In the step of Sb40, it is determined whether or not the value of the second predetermined bit of the type coefficient E set in the E register is 1, and when the value of the second predetermined bit is 1, the search data is searched. It is determined that the determination value data specified based on the above is the data of the combination with the setting difference, while the determination value data is determined not to be the data of the combination with the setting difference when the value of the second predetermined bit is not 1. .. When it is determined that the determination value data is the data of the combination with the setting difference, the determination value data is the 2-byte data of the combination with the setting difference based on the type coefficient E set in the E register. Judge whether or not (S
b41). In the step of Sb41, it is determined whether or not the value of the first predetermined bit of the type coefficient E set in the E register is 1, and when the value of the first predetermined bit is 1, the search data is obtained. While it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the above is 2-byte data, when the value of the first predetermined bit is not 1, it is determined that the determination value data is not 2-byte data. Then, when it is determined that the determination value data is 2-byte data, the value set in the A register in the step of Sb39 is added to the A register, so that the added value (A) set in the A register is added. ) Is doubled (Sb42).

Then, when it is determined in the step of Sb41 that the determination value data is 2-byte data, the added value (A) updated twice in the step of Sb42 is added to the HL register to obtain the current position address. After advancing (HL) by the added value (A) (Sb4)
3) Proceed to the step of Sb44 described later. If it is determined in the step of Sb41 that the determination value data is not 2-byte data, the addition value (A) set in the step of Sb39 is added to the HL register to obtain the current position address (HL). After advancing by the added value (A) (Sb43), the process proceeds to the step of Sb44. On the other hand, in the step of Sb40, the value of the type coefficient E is smaller than 2, and is set in the E register.
When it is determined that the value of the predetermined bit is not 1 and the determination value data specified based on the search data is not the determination value data of the combination with setting difference, that is, the determination value data of the combination without setting difference, Sb41 The process proceeds to the step of Sb44 without processing the step of Sb43.

By adding the added value (A) to the current position address (HL) in the step of Sb43, the added value (A) is a value corresponding to the set value currently set in the slot machine 1 in the step of Sb39 ( Since the set value-1) is set, if the judgment value data fluctuates according to the set value, the address (for example, the address me) in which the value of the search data is added to the judgment value table reference address. , Address mg, etc.) and a value corresponding to the set value (for example, when the set value is 6 and the determination value data is 1-byte data, the set value is 6 for 5 addresses and the determination value is determined. When the data is 2-byte data, the process proceeds to the step of Sb44 in a state where the address (for example, address me + 5, address mg + 10, etc.) to which 10 addresses are added is set as the current position address (HL). on the other hand,
When it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data in the step of Sb40 is not the determination value data of the combination with setting difference and the processing of the step of Sb43 is not performed, that is, the determination specified based on the search data. When the value data is the judgment value data of the combination without setting difference, the address (for example, address ma, address mb, address mc, address md, etc.) obtained by adding the value of the search data to the judgment value table reference address is The process proceeds to the step of Sb44 with the current position address (HL) set.

Then, in the step of Sb44, the first predetermined bit of the data set in the E register is set in the flag register so as to be able to be specified (for example, the value of the Z flag of the flag register is set to the 0th bit of the data in the E register. (For example, set to the value of), some data that can specify whether the judgment value data of the type coefficient E is 1-byte data or 2-byte data is saved. After that, the process proceeds to the step of Sb45, the determination value data stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b specified by the current position address (HL) set in the step of Sb37 or the step of Sb43 is acquired, and the lottery determination data is obtained. It is set in the E register as the first byte (lower byte) of (Sb45). After that, it is determined whether or not the determination value data is 1-byte data based on a part of the data of the type coefficient E saved in the step of Sb44 (Sb46). In the step of Sb46, when the type coefficient E set by the steps of Sb28 to Sb35 is 0 or 2, and the first predetermined bit of the saved type coefficient E is 0, it is specified based on the search data. While it is determined that the determination value data is 1-byte data, when the first predetermined bit of the saved type coefficient E is 1, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is not 1-byte data. do. And Sb4
If it is determined in step 6 that the determination value data is not 1-byte data, that is, if the determination value data is 2-byte data, the current position address (HL) is set to 1 by adding 1 to the HL register. After proceeding (Sb47), the current position address (HL)
), The determination value data stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b is acquired and set in the D register as the second byte (upper byte) of the lottery determination data (Sb48).
), Proceed to the step of Sb49. On the other hand, in the step of Sb46, Sb28 to Sb3
When it is determined that the type coefficient E set in step 5 is 0 or 2, the first predetermined bit of the saved type coefficient E is 0, and the determination value data is 1-byte data, it is determined. The process proceeds to the step of Sb49 without processing the steps of Sb47 and Sb48.

Then, in the step of Sb49, the value of the D register is added to the upper byte of the IX register and the value of the E register is added to the lower byte of the IX register, so that the lottery determination data value is added to the random number value for the internal lottery. Add and perform an internal lottery (Sb49). Further, at the time of this addition, the value of the IX register is a predetermined number (maximum value 65535 (decimal number) that can be expressed in 2 bytes).
) Is exceeded, and if an overflow occurs, a flag register is set so that it can be specified that the overflow has occurred. On the other hand, if the value of the IX register does not exceed a predetermined number (maximum value 65535 (decimal number) that can be expressed in 2 bytes) and overflow does not occur, it is possible to specify that the overflow has not occurred. Set the flag register to.

Then, after adding the lottery determination data value to the random number value for internal lottery in the step of Sb49, the RAM is performed in the last step of the steps of Sb15 or Sb20.
The current position address (HL) saved in the predetermined area of 41c is returned to the HL register (Sb50). As a result, the ROM 4 in which the search data of the current winning number (B) in the search data table is stored as the current position address (HL) in the HL register.
The address of the storage area of 1b will be set again. Further, in the step of Sb26 described above, even if it is determined that the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number (B) is not the lottery target in the internal lottery in the current gaming state, the process proceeds to the step of Sb50, and Sb15 or The current position address (HL) saved in the step of Sb20 is returned to the HL register.

Then, after the current position address (HL) saved in the step of Sb50 is restored, the current winning is based on the random number value for the internal lottery after the lottery determination data is added in the step of Sb49. It is determined whether or not the lottery target combination of the number (B) has been won (Sb51). Here, if it is determined in the step of Sb26 that the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) is the lottery target, the process proceeds to the step of Sb51 after performing various processes in the steps of Sb27 to Sb49. , In the step of Sb51, Sb4
Based on the random number value for internal lottery after the lottery determination data is added in step 9, it is determined whether or not the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) has won. On the other hand, if it is determined in the step of Sb26 that the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) is not the lottery target, the process proceeds to the step of Sb51 without performing various processes in the steps of Sb27 to Sb49, and the lottery is performed. Based on the random number value for the internal lottery to which the determination data is not added, it is determined whether or not the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) has won.

In the step of Sb51, when it is specified that an overflow has occurred when adding the values of the E register and the D register to the XI register in the step of Sb49 with reference to the flag register, that is, it is set in the XI register. When the random number value for the internal lottery exceeds a predetermined number (65536 (decimal number, maximum value that can be expressed by 2 bytes) in this embodiment) and the random number value for the internal lottery overflows. Determines that the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) set in the B register has been won, and proceeds to the step of Sb55. On the other hand, in the step of Sb51, when it is specified that the overflow has not occurred when adding the values of the E register and the D register to the XI register in the step of Sb49 with reference to the flag register, that is, the XI register. The random number value for internal lottery after the lottery determination data set in is added does not exceed a predetermined number (65536 (maximum value that can be expressed by a decimal number or 2 bytes) in this embodiment). If the random number value for the internal lottery does not overflow, it is determined that the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) set in the B register has not been won, and the process proceeds to the step of Sb52.

Then, in the step of Sb52, the current winning number (B) is subtracted by 1 by subtracting 1 from the value of the B register (Sb52). Then, it is determined whether or not the winning number (B) after the subtraction in the step of Sb52 is 0 (Sb53).

If it is determined in the step of Sb53 that the winning number (B) after subtraction set in the B register is not 0, the process returns to the step of Sb13 described above, and the processing of the steps from Sb13 to Sb51 or Sb53 is repeated. conduct. On the other hand, if it is determined in the step of Sb53 that the winning number (B) after subtraction is 0, all the winning numbers that can be the target of the lottery according to the currently controlled gaming state (not in this embodiment). During BB, 1-48, B
During B, it was determined whether or not 1 to 50) was won, but it was determined that any winning number was to be won, that is, it was lost, and the flag with loss and setting difference was set to R.
After setting the predetermined area of AM41c (Sb54), the process proceeds to the step of Sb55.

Then, in the step of Sb55, the value set in the B register is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c as the lottery result (Sb55). As a result, the winning number (B) (any of 1 to 50) when it is determined to win in the step of Sb51 or the winning number (B) (0 in the case of loss) after being subtracted in the step of Sb53 is used. Set as a lottery result.
After that, based on the winning result, the winning number of only the small winning combination is acquired and the RAM is used as the small winning combination number.
It is set in a predetermined area of 41c (Sb56). For example, if the lottery target winning combination (for example, BB + middle cherry 1 etc.) in which the BB and the small winning combination are won at the same time based on the lottery result is won.
Obtain the winning number of the lottery target winning combination (for example, middle cherry 1 etc.) that only the small winning combination wins.
Set as a small winning combination number.

Then, it is determined whether or not the internal internal flag of the BB indicating that the winning of the BB is carried over is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c (Sb57), and it is determined that the internal internal flag of the BB is not set. If so, it is determined whether or not the BB has won based on the lottery result set in the step of Sb55 (Sb58), and if it is determined that the BB has won, the internal flag of the BB is set to the RAM 41c. A BB first hit flag that can be set in a predetermined area (Sb59) and can be specified to be transferred to the inside by winning the BB in the game is set in the RAM.
After setting the predetermined area of 41c (Sb60), the internal lottery process is terminated and the process returns to the main process. On the other hand, if it is determined that the internal middle flag is set in the step of Sb57, or if it is determined that the BB is not won in the step of Sb58, Sb59
And, the internal lottery process is terminated and the process returns to the main process without performing the process of the step of Sb60.

In this way, in the internal lottery process (Sa2), after the initial setting process (Sb1 to Sb12), a predetermined end condition (it is determined that any of the lottery target combinations has been won, or a lottery is performed for all the lottery target combinations. Until this is established, a common process for determining whether or not one lottery target combination is to be won is repeatedly executed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations as a loop process (Sb13 to Sb53).

In the initial setting process (Sb1 to Sb12), the winning number (48) is set as the number of loops different depending on the gaming state, and the winning number (50) is set during BB.

Further, in the initial setting process (Sb1 to Sb12), based on the initial address designation data (search data table initial address designation data 1 and 2), the first lottery target combination (normally, the lottery target combination with the combination number 48, BB). The address one address before the address (address nc in BB, address nd in normal times) corresponding to the search data corresponding to the lottery target combination of the combination number 50 is used as the initial current position address (HL). Set.

In this embodiment, as the initial address designation data (search data table initial address designation data 1 and 2), the head of the search data table according to the game state is used from the address of the area where the initial address designation data is stored. The difference value up to the address immediately before the address where the data is specified is set, and by adding the difference value to the current position address (HL), it is used as the initial current position address (HL) in the loop processing. , Address (address nc, address n) to which the first data of the search data table according to the game state is specified
Although the configuration is such that the address one address before d) is set, as the initial address specification data, the data at the beginning of the search data table according to the game state is from the address of the area where the initial address specification data is stored. By setting the difference value up to the specified address, adding the difference value to the current position address (HL) and subtracting 1 as the initial current position address (HL) in the loop processing, it corresponds to the game state. The address one address before the address (address nc, address nd) in which the first data of the search data table is specified may be set.

Further, in the initial setting process (Sb1 to Sb12), the random number value for the internal lottery is set in the IX register (Sd12).

In the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), the current position address (HL) is updated so as to advance by one address, and the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number is won by using the search data specified from the updated address. It is designed to determine whether or not it is.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), the winning combination number (winning number) of the lottery target combination to be the target of the internal lottery is updated in a predetermined order (in descending order of the winning combination number), and in the initial setting processing, the first As the lottery target combination, different lottery target combinations (normally, the lottery target combination with the combination number 48, and during the BB, the lottery target combination with the combination number 50) are set according to the game state (BB, normal). ..

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), when the current position address (HL) is updated by one address, the updated address is saved and then stored in the current position address (HL) as the next processing. The process proceeds to a process of determining whether or not the search data is a variable combination in which the determination value data fluctuates according to the gaming state (RT0 to 4).

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), whether or not the value specified from the updated current position address (HL) is subject to the lottery according to the gaming state (RT0 to 4) or at least one of the winning probabilities is determined. It is determined whether or not it is the variable flag data (FF) indicating that it is a different variable variable combination, and if it is the variable variable flag data (FF), the processing peculiar to the variable variable combination (corresponding variable variable combination). (Process to specify the search data corresponding to the current game state), and if it is not the variable flag data (FF), the process is common to all the lottery target combinations (whether or not the corresponding lottery target combination has been won). Move to the process of determining whether or not.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), the lottery target is in the gaming state (RT0 to 4).
The state value corresponding to the current gaming state (RT0 to 4) is within a predetermined range (0 to 4) when whether or not it is a lottery target or at least one of the winning probabilities is a different winning combination. It is determined whether or not there is, and if it is not within the predetermined range, it is corrected to a specific state value (RT0) within the predetermined range. Further, the specific state value (RT0) is a gaming state that is disadvantageous to the player.

In the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), in the case of a variable combination, the search is based on the search data stored in the area of ROM 41b to which the address specified from the state value corresponding to the current gaming state is assigned. If the data is larger than 0, it is determined that the variable combination is a lottery target, and if the search data is 0, it is determined that the variable combination is not a lottery target. Determines whether or not is a lottery target.

In the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), when the variable combination is a variable combination, it is determined whether or not the variable combination is a lottery target, and when the variable combination is not a lottery target, the internal lottery random value is used. 1 is subtracted from the value of the B register without performing the process of adding the winning determination data of the variable combination and determining whether or not the overflow occurs, that is, the process of determining whether or not the variable combination is won. By determining whether or not the determined value is 0, it is determined whether or not an undetermined lottery target remains, and if an undetermined lottery target remains, the beginning of the loop process (S).
The process proceeds to step b13), and if there are no undetermined lottery targets left, the loop process is terminated.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), the search data is acquired from the area of the updated address, and whether the acquired search data is a value indicating a 1-byte area of the determination value data table or 2 bytes of the determination value data table. Type coefficient E that differs depending on whether it is a value indicating an area
And, according to the set type coefficient E, either the process of acquiring 1-byte judgment value data and setting it in the E register, or the process of acquiring 2-byte judgment value data and setting it in the DE register. I do. Then, in the internal lottery process, after the loop process, the type coefficient E set when the determination value data used for determining whether or not the lottery target is won is acquired from the determination value data table is set. The processing (Sb41 to Sb43) is changed accordingly.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), the search data is acquired from the updated current position address (HL) area, and whether the acquired search data is a value indicating an area with a setting difference.
A type coefficient E having a different value depending on whether the value indicates a setting difference-free area is set in the E register. Then, in the internal lottery process, after the loop process, when the determination value data is acquired from the determination value data table according to the type coefficient E, the process is performed according to the set type coefficient E (Sb40 to Sb43). To make it different.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), when the search data is the data having no setting difference and is a value indicating the 1-byte area of the determination value data table, the type coefficient E is set.
When 0 (“00” in binary display) is set and the search data is data that has no setting difference and is a value indicating a 2-byte area of the judgment value data table, 1 (“01” in binary display). When the search data is the data of the combination with the setting difference and the value indicates the 1-byte area of the judgment value data table, 2 (“10” in binary display) is set and the search data has the setting difference. When it is the data of the role and the value indicates the 2-byte area of the judgment value data table, 3 (
Set "11") in binary display. As a result, in the type coefficient E, a value corresponding to whether it is a 1-byte area or a 2-byte area is set in the first bit, and whether it is an area with a setting difference or an area without a setting difference. The value corresponding to is set to the second bit.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), the type coefficient E is set in the E register, and then the determination value data acquired from the determination value data table when determining whether or not the lottery target combination is to be won is D. Set in the register and E register. That is, the type coefficient E is set in the E register common to the register in which the determination value data is set.

Further, in the loop processing (Sb13 to Sb53), it is determined that the lottery target winning combination of the winning combination number indicated by the winning number (B) is won based on the search data specified from the updated current position address (HL). Judgment value data indicating the judgment value is acquired, the acquired judgment value data and the random number value acquired in the initial setting process are added, and if the addition result exceeds the range of the random number value, the winning number (B) If the winning combination of the winning combination number indicated by is determined as a winning combination and the addition result does not exceed the range of the random number value, the winning number (B) is updated and the updated winning number (B) is the end value (0).
), If the updated winning number (B) is not the end value, the process moves to the beginning of the loop process, and if the updated winning number (B) is the end value, any of the lottery target combinations. Also decides not to win (loss).

In addition, the winning numbers determined in the internal lottery process are the winning number of the lottery target winning combination that is allowed to generate a prize and the number corresponding to the loss that is not allowed to generate a winning of any lottery target winning combination (0).
) And, including.

In addition, the lottery target combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery process include a combination with a setting difference in which the winning ratio is different according to the set value, and a combination without a setting difference in which the winning ratio is the same regardless of the set value.
including.

Further, in the internal lottery process, when the winning number is a winning combination with a setting difference at the stage of determining the winning number, a loss and a setting difference indicating that the winning or losing of the lottery target winning combination with a setting difference is performed. The Yes flag is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c.

Further, in the internal lottery process, when the winning number is a loss in which none of the lottery target combinations has been won at the stage of determining the winning number, it indicates that the lottery target combination with a difference in setting has been won or lost. The loss and setting difference flags are set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c.

Further, in the internal lottery process, whether the lottery target combination is a combination with a different setting difference in the winning ratio according to the set value, or whether the winning ratio is the same setting difference-less combination regardless of the setting value. The process of setting the type coefficient E is performed accordingly. Then, when setting the type coefficient E, if it is determined that the combination has a setting difference and the type coefficient E (2, 3) is set, in order to select the determination value data according to the set value. While performing the process of advancing the current position address, if it is a combination with no setting difference, by processing so that the process is not performed, it is determined that the combination has a setting difference and the combination with no setting difference. It is designed to perform different processing depending on whether it is determined to be present or not.

Further, in the internal lottery process, when the process of setting the type coefficient E is performed, it is determined whether or not the combination has no setting difference, and if it is determined that the combination is not the combination without setting difference, then the combination with setting difference is obtained. It is a configuration for determining whether or not the combination is, and when it is determined whether or not the combination is a combination without a setting difference and it is determined that the combination is not a combination without a setting difference, a loss and a flag with a setting difference is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c. It has become like.

Further, in the internal lottery process, a process of sequentially determining whether or not all the predetermined lottery target combinations have been won is performed, the process is completed for all the lottery target combinations, and all the lottery target combinations are won. If it is determined that the game has not been completed, it is determined to be a loss, and a predetermined value (0 in this embodiment) is set as the winning number. Then, when the process of determining whether or not all the lottery target combinations have been won is completed and it is determined that all the lottery target combinations have not been won, the loss and setting difference flags are set. It has become.

Further, in the internal lottery process, when the special role (BB) is won, the internal middle flag that can specify that the BB is being carried over and the BB first hit flag that can specify that the BB has won in the game. Is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c. Then, the BB first hit flag is cleared at the end of the game, and the internal middle flag is cleared when the winning BB wins a prize.

In this embodiment, the lottery type set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c is initialized at the start of the internal lottery process, but the lottery type is initialized by the time the lottery type setting process is started. For example, the lottery type may be initialized in the game start waiting process performed at the start of the game, the game end setting process performed at the end of the previous game, and the like.

Further, in the internal lottery process, until it is determined that the lottery target combination being drawn is won in the step of Sb51, or the value of the B register is determined to be 0 in the step of Sb53, Sb13 to Sb53 Each process is repeated to perform loop processing. again,
In the B register, the maximum value of the winning combination in the non-BB or BB in the step of Sb8 is set as the winning number (B), and then the value in the B register is subtracted by 1 for each loop process. It is supposed to be done. As a result, the loop processing is repeated with the value of the B register as the maximum number of times, and the winning number (B) set in the B register becomes the remaining maximum number of times of the loop processing.

Further, in the internal lottery process, when it is determined that the winner has been won in the step of Sb51, the winning number (B) set in the B register at that time is set in the lottery result. The winning number (B) and the winning combination number of the lottery target combination are matched, for example, 48 in the B register.
If it is determined that the player has won in the step of Sb51 when is set,
It is set that the lottery target winning combination of the winning combination number 48, that is, the middle cherry 1 is won in the internal lottery.

Further, in the judgment value data table in which the judgment value data (hereinafter, may be referred to as the number of judgment values) used for the judgment of the winning combination in the internal lottery is stored, the judgment value data is determined for each lottery target combination. R in descending order of the number of the combination number assigned in advance to each lottery target combination.
It is stored in a predetermined area of OM41b.

Specifically, in the data structure of the judgment value data, the judgment value data defined for the role of the category without setting difference and the judgment value data defined for the role of the category with setting difference are classified. There is. For example, a combination number with a setting difference (for example, 14, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34).
The data of the determination value of the combination subject to the lottery is separated from the data of the determination value of the combination without any other setting difference. In this way, the location of the determination value data is divided according to the presence or absence of the setting difference.

Of the judgment value data defined for the role of the category without setting difference, the judgment value data that fits in 1-byte data (1-byte data without setting difference) and the judgment that does not fit in 1-byte data but fits in 2-byte data. It is separated from the value data (2-byte data with no setting difference).
The number of determination values corresponding to 1-byte data is 256. Therefore, the lottery target combination for which the number of determination values exceeding 256 is determined is arranged in the 2-byte data. For example, the middle cherry 1 of the number of determination values (for example, 4 etc.) that fits in the 1-byte data is arranged in the 1-byte data. On the other hand, the left bell 1 having a number of determination values (for example, 1149 or the like) that does not fit in the 1-byte data but fits in the 2-byte data is arranged in the 2-byte data. In this way, the location of the determination value data is divided according to the presence / absence of the setting difference and the capacity of the byte data.

Further, in the 1-byte data without a setting difference, the data of the determination values are collected for the lottery target combinations in which the same number of determination values are determined. For example, the same number of judgment values (for example)
The data of the judgment values are collected in the middle cherries 1 and 2 in which 4 etc.) are defined. Further, in the 1-byte data without setting difference, the data of the determination value determined for each lottery target combination is stored in descending order of the number of the combination number. For example, in the 1-byte data with no setting difference, the determination value data is arranged in the order of the middle cherry 1 of the winning combination 48 and the middle cherry 2 of the winning combination 47. Further, in the 2-byte data with no setting difference, the data of the determination values are collected for the lottery target combinations in which the same number of determination values are determined. For example, lottery target combinations (for example, left bells 1 to 4 and middle bells 1 to 4) in which the same number of determination values (for example, 1149, etc.) are determined.
, Right bells 1 to 4 etc.) are the data of the judgment values. In this way, among the lottery target combinations with no setting difference, the lottery target combinations having the same number of determination values are grouped together. Further, in the 2-byte data with no setting difference, the data of the determination value determined for each lottery target combination is stored in descending order of the number of the combination number. For example, in the 2-byte data with no setting difference, the determination value data is arranged in the order of the left bell 1 of the combination number 26 and the left bell 2 of the combination number 25.

Of the judgment value data specified for the lottery target combination with setting difference, the judgment value data that fits in 1-byte data (1-byte data with setting difference) and the judgment that does not fit in 1-byte data but fits in 2-byte data. It is separated from the value data (2-byte data with setting difference). For example, BBs having a number of determination values (for example, 22 to 69, etc.) corresponding to each set value that fits in the 1-byte data are arranged in the 1-byte data. Further, in the 1-byte data with a setting difference, the data of the determination value determined for each lottery target combination is stored in descending order of the number of the combination number. For example, in the 1-byte data with a setting difference, the determination value data is arranged in the order of BB of the combination number 34, BB of the combination number 33 + strong cherry 2. Further, the number of determination values corresponding to each set value that does not fit in the 1-byte data but fits in the 2-byte data (for example, 3074 to 4).
The bell of 254 etc.) is arranged in the 2-byte data. Further, in the 2-byte data with a setting difference, the data of the determination value determined for each lottery target combination is stored in descending order of the number of the combination number. For example, in the case of 2-byte data with a setting difference, the bell with the winning combination number 27,
The determination value data is arranged in the order of the one-card combination of the combination number 14. In this way, among the lottery target combinations with different settings, the lottery target combinations with the same number of determination values are grouped together, and the determination value data is stored in each lottery target combination in descending order of the number of the combination number. There is.

[About lottery type and lottery type setting process]
Next, the control content of the lottery type setting process performed by the main control unit 41 of the present embodiment and the lottery type set by the lottery type setting process will be described with reference to FIGS. 17 to 19.

As shown in FIG. 17, the lottery types set by the main control unit 41 include lottery types 0 to 4. The lottery type 0 is data that can specify that the lottery result of the internal lottery is a combination with a setting difference and is not a target for performing a lottery related to an advantageous section (advantageous section lottery, AT lottery), and the setting difference. It can be given to a lottery target winning combination that has a winning combination and does not have an advantageous section lottery / AT lottery (see FIG. 7). Further, in the lottery type 1, the lottery result of the internal lottery is a role with no setting difference.
In addition, it is data that can identify that the role is not subject to the advantageous section-related lottery (advantageous section lottery, AT lottery), there is no setting difference, and the advantageous section lottery / AT lottery is not performed (see Fig. 7).
It can be given to the lottery target combination. Further, in the lottery type 2, it is possible to specify that the lottery result of the internal lottery is a role with no setting difference, and the lottery related to the advantageous section (advantageous section lottery, AT lottery) is a target role to be performed with a low probability α. It is data, there is no setting difference, and advantageous section lottery / AT
Of the winning combinations with lottery (see FIG. 7), the winning combination can be given to the predetermined first group of winning combinations. Further, the lottery type 3 is a target in which the lottery result of the internal lottery is a winning combination with no setting difference, and the lottery related to the advantageous section (advantageous section lottery, AT lottery) is performed with a medium probability β (higher probability than the low probability α). It is data that can be specified to the effect that it is a combination of, and it is given to the predetermined second group lottery target combination among the combination with advantageous section lottery / AT lottery (see Fig. 7) without any setting difference. Can be done. Further, in the lottery selection 4, the lottery result of the internal lottery is a winning combination with no setting difference, and the lottery related to the advantageous section (advantageous section lottery, AT lottery) has a higher probability than the high probability γ (low probability α and medium probability β). ) Is the data that can be specified to the effect that the role is the target, there is no setting difference, and the combination with the advantageous section lottery / AT lottery (see Fig. 7) is the predetermined 3rd group lottery target combination. Can be granted to.

Further, the main control unit 41 can set the lottery types 1 to 4 in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and after initializing the lottery type to 0 by the above-mentioned internal lottery process, the execution condition described later is performed by the main process. When it is determined that is satisfied, the lottery type setting process described later is performed, and the lottery type is updated to a predetermined value (1 to 4) by the lottery type setting process, while the lottery type setting process is executed. If it is not determined that the condition is satisfied, the lottery type setting process is not performed and the lottery type is not updated, so that the initial value (0) remains.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 18, in the lottery type setting process, first, the winning number set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c is acquired by the internal lottery process (Sa2) in the above-mentioned main process (Sc1). ), The lottery type selection process is performed (Sc2), and a predetermined lottery type value (any of 1 to 4) corresponding to the winning number is specified and selected using the lottery type table. Then, the value selected by the lottery type selection process is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c as the lottery type during the game (Sc3). After that, the lottery type setting process is terminated and the process returns to the main process.

As shown in FIG. 19A, in the lottery type table used in the lottery type selection process,
The lottery type (1 to 4) corresponding to the winning number of the winning combination without setting difference is defined, and the corresponding lottery type can be specified based on the winning number. For example, the winning numbers are 50, 49, 32
, 31, 29, 26 to 15, 13 to 1, the lottery type 1 can be specified based on these winning numbers. Further, when the winning numbers are 45, 44, 41 to 38, the lottery type 2 can be specified based on these winning numbers. Winning numbers are 46, 43, 42,
In the case of 35, the lottery type 3 can be specified based on these winning numbers. When the winning numbers are 48, 47, 37, 36, the lottery type 4 can be specified based on these winning numbers.

As a result, when the lottery type setting process is performed and the flag with loss and setting difference is not set by the internal lottery process, that is, the lottery result of the internal lottery has no setting difference (see FIG. 7).
In the case of, lottery type 1 to according to the winning number of the lottery target winning combination in the internal lottery.
4 is set.

On the other hand, as described above, when the loss and the setting difference flag are set by the internal lottery process, that is, when the lottery result of the internal lottery is the setting difference combination (see FIG. 7), or neither combination is won. If there is a loss, the lottery type setting process is not performed. Therefore, regardless of the winning number (including the loss) of the lottery target winning combination in the internal lottery, the lottery type is the step of Sb1 of the internal lottery process. It remains at the value (0) at the time of initialization in.

FIG. 1 shows the result of the lottery type setting by the main control unit 41 performing the lottery type setting process based on whether or not the flag with loss and setting difference is set, and the result of assigning the lottery type by not performing the process.
It is shown in 9 (b).

As shown in FIG. 19B, the lottery type setting process is performed based on whether or not the flag with loss and setting difference is set, and by not performing the process, the lottery target which is a combination with setting difference is performed. Role (winning number: 34, 33, 30, 28, 27, 14) and loss (winning number:
The lottery type remains the initial value (0) with respect to 0). In addition, the first of the roles with no setting difference
The lottery type is set to 1 for the lottery target combination of the group (winning numbers: 50, 49, 32, 31, 29, 26 to 15, 13 to 1). In addition, the second group of the winning combination with no setting difference (the winning combination for lottery (
The lottery type is set to 2 for the winning numbers: 45, 44, 41 to 38). Further, the lottery type is set to 3 for the lottery target combination (winning numbers: 46, 43, 42, 35) of the third group among the combinations with no setting difference. Further, the lottery type is set to 4 for the lottery target combination (winning numbers: 48, 47, 37, 36) of the fourth group among the combinations with no setting difference.

In this way, in the lottery type setting process, the lottery type can be updated to a value corresponding to the winning number, and the lottery types include lottery types 0 and 1 indicating that the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery are not performed.
, Includes lottery types 2 to 4 indicating that an advantageous section lottery and an AT lottery are to be performed. In addition, lottery type 0 is
It indicates that the combination has a setting, and the lottery types 1 to 4 indicate that the combination has no setting.

Further, the lottery types 0 to 4 include lottery types corresponding to a plurality of types of winning numbers, and in the lottery type setting process, a lottery type having a common value can be set for the plurality of winning numbers. ..

In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 can specify whether or not the winning combination is the target combination for performing the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery based on the lottery type, and the advantageous section processing (Sb7) and the AT lottery processing (Sb7) In Sb8), when it is specified that the winning combination is the target of the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery based on the set lottery type, the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery is performed, and the lottery is won to make the advantageous section. Although it is configured to shift or control to AT, specify the content of control related to the advantageous section such as whether to shift to the advantageous section based on the lottery type and whether to add the number of games to be controlled to the advantageous section. It is possible, and the main control unit 41 may be configured to directly control the advantageous section based on the lottery type.

For example, as shown in FIG. 20, it is specified that the lottery type includes 0 to 4, etc., and the lottery type 0 is a combination with a setting difference and is a combination for controlling so as not to perform control related to an advantageous section. As possible data, lottery type 1 is a combination with no setting difference, and data can be specified that it is a combination for controlling so as not to perform control related to an advantageous section, and lottery type 2 is a combination with no setting difference. If it has not been transferred to the advantageous section, it is controlled to shift to the advantageous section, while
When the data is transferred to the advantageous section and controlled by the AT, the data can be specified to the effect that the number of games to be controlled is not added to the AT, and the lottery type 3 is a combination with no setting difference. Yes, if it is not shifted to the advantageous section, it is controlled to shift to the advantageous section, while if it is shifted to the advantageous section and controlled by AT, the number of games to be controlled by AT is added. The lottery type 4 is a combination with no setting difference, and if it has not been transferred to the advantageous section, it is controlled so as to be transferred to the advantageous section. When the game is transferred to the advantageous section and controlled by the AT, the lottery type is set as data that can identify that the number of games controlled by the AT is controlled to be added more than the lottery type 3. In various subsequent processes, the main control unit 41 may be configured to control the advantageous section based on the lottery type. In such a configuration, it is possible to determine whether or not to shift to an advantageous section and to determine the number of additional games to be controlled by the AT only by the internal lottery.
It is possible to simplify the control regarding the advantageous section.

For example, as shown in FIG. 22, the main control unit 41 acquires the winning number determined by the internal lottery (Za1) (Za2), and whether or not the winning number is a winning number with a setting difference or a loss. If it is not a winning number with a setting difference or a loss (Za3),
The lottery setting process is performed (Za4 to Za6) to set the lottery types 1 to 4, while the lottery type 0 is set (Za7) when the winning number is a winning combination or a loss with a setting difference, and then an advantageous section. In a configuration in which advantageous section lottery or AT lottery is performed based on lottery types 0 to 4 by performing processing (Za8) and AT lottery processing (Za9), there is a setting difference or a loss is directly based on the winning number. The lottery type 0 is set, and advantageous section processing and AT lottery processing are performed.

On the other hand, in this embodiment, in the internal lottery process, the lottery type is initialized to 0 at the start of the process, and then, at the stage of determining the winning number, the winning number, which is the lottery result, has a setting difference. If there is a loss or if none of the lottery target combinations are won, the loss and setting difference flag is set, and in the main process, it is determined whether the loss and setting difference flag is set, and the flag is set. If not, the lottery type setting process is performed, the value of the lottery type is updated to the value corresponding to the winning number, and if the flag is set, the lottery type setting process is not performed. Regardless of the winning number, the value of the lottery type is left as the initial value (0). In such a configuration, if the lottery result of the internal lottery is a combination (including loss) in which the winning ratio differs depending on the set value, the loss and the setting difference flag are set. Since the lottery type setting process is controlled so as not to be performed and the value of the lottery type is left as the initial value (0), the winning ratio (including loss) differs depending on the set value based on the winning number. It is possible to prevent the lottery type from being set.

[About a modified example of the search data table]
Next, a modification of the search data table of the internal lottery table will be described with reference to FIG.

In the search data table of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 21 (a), the search data for one variable combination (for example, the lottery target combination of the combination numbers 6 and 13) is selected by lottery in the corresponding gaming state. Search data for each gaming state is stored for all gaming states (RT0-4) regardless of whether or not they are targeted, and search data for the number of gaming states is stored for each combination with one variation. It is a configuration that has been done. On the other hand, as a modification of the search data table, as shown in FIG. 21B, a variable combination (for example, a lottery target combination of combination numbers 6 and 13) is not subject to lottery in a gaming state. The search data may not be stored, and only the search data in the gaming state to be the target of the lottery may be stored. In such a configuration, the capacity of the search data table can be reduced by not storing the search data in the gaming state that is not the target of the lottery for the variable combination.

Further, the value of the search data of the variable combination in the search data table of this embodiment is 0.
If, it indicates that it is not a target of the lottery in the corresponding gaming state, and if the value is 1 or more, it indicates a difference value that is the target of the lottery in the gaming state and can specify the determination value data. It is a configuration, and it is a configuration that can specify whether or not it is a target of a lottery in the corresponding game state based on the value of the search data. On the other hand, in the search data table, it is the data of the data length that can be stored in the area of 1 address, and the value of a predetermined bit determines in which game state the corresponding variable combination is the target of the lottery. By setting the lottery target determination flag data (see FIGS. 21 (b) and (c)) that can be specified based on the lottery target determination flag data for each variable combination, the lottery is performed in the corresponding game state based on the lottery target determination flag data. It may be configured so that it can be specified whether or not it is the target of. Even with such a configuration, it is possible to determine whether or not the game is subject to the lottery in the currently controlled gaming state based on the data in the search data table.

Regarding the flag data for determining the lottery target of the predetermined variable combination, for example, FIGS. 21 (b) (c).
), The lottery target determination flag data is set as 8-bit data, and a value indicating whether or not the lottery target is to be selected in RT0, RT4, RT3, RT2, and RT1 in order from the leftmost bit (lottery target). If so, 1. If it is not the target of the lottery, set 0) in advance and store it in the search data table, and determine whether or not the variable combination is the target of the lottery in the current gaming state. At the time of determination, the rotation process is performed on the lottery target determination flag data a predetermined number of times according to the current RT (the current RT value is subtracted from the maximum RT value (4) and 1 is added to obtain the determination. If the calculated value exceeds the maximum value (4) of RT, it is performed 0 times, and if the calculated value is equal to or less than the maximum value (4), the number of times for the calculated value) is performed to perform the current RT.
It is possible to acquire a determination flag that can identify whether or not it is a target of a lottery, and determine whether or not it is a target of a lottery in the current RT based on the determination flag.

As shown in FIG. 21 (c), in the rotate process, the value of the leftmost bit in the target data (lottery target determination flag data) to be processed is acquired as a determination flag.
This is a process of shifting the target data to the left by one bit and updating the value set in the original determination flag to the value moved to the rightmost bit of the target data. By repeating the rotation process for the target data a predetermined number of times, the bit value for the predetermined value from the left in the original target data (for example, when the rotate process is performed three times, the left side of the original target data). 3rd bit value) is acquired as a determination value flag. And the target data is
The value of each bit of the original target data is shifted to the left by a predetermined value, and the value set in the judgment value flag at each process is sequentially updated to the value moved to the right of the original target data. The Rukoto. The rotation processing determination flag is set to a predetermined bit in the F register.

For example, with the value of the determination flag set to "0", the 1-byte data "0"
When performing rotation processing with "0100000" as the original target data, the value of each bit of the original target data is shifted to the left by one bit, and the value of the determination flag is the rightmost bit (first bit). ), The target data will be "01000000".
Is updated to. Further, the value of the determination flag is updated to the value "0" of the leftmost bit (8th bit) of the original target data. And if you want to perform further rotation processing,
The same processing as the above-mentioned processing is performed on the target data updated by the previous rotation processing, the determination flag is updated to "0", and the target data is updated to "10000000". Then, by performing the third rotation process on the original target data "00100000", the data "1" in the sixth bit from the right of the original target data can be taken out as a determination flag.

As shown in FIG. 21B, in the search data table, the lottery target determination flag data corresponding to one variable combination is stored in the area of a predetermined address, and the lottery target determination flag data is stored. The search data of the variable combination in the gaming state to be the target of the lottery is configured to be stored in the order of RT0, RT4, RT3, RT2, RT1 in the area of each address after the existing address, and the internal lottery process is performed. When the lottery target determination flag data is specified from the current position address (HL), the lottery target determination flag data is read into a predetermined register, and the lottery target determination flag data is rotated. By performing a predetermined number of times according to the current RT, the judgment flag corresponding to the current RT is acquired, and
It can be configured so that it can be specified whether or not it is the target of the lottery. Further, a value (1) indicating that the determination flag is the target of the lottery when the rotation process is performed a predetermined number of times according to the current RT.
), The current position address (HL) is advanced by 1, and when the rotation processing of a predetermined number of times is completed and the determination flag is a value (1) indicating that the lottery target is obtained, the current position address is reached. By acquiring the data of the area specified based on (HL), it is possible to configure the configuration so that the search data in the current RT can be acquired for the predetermined variable combination.

[Action 1]
With conventional gaming machines, whether or not to control the jackpot state, whether or not to allow the occurrence of prizes, etc.
Most of them have a lottery related to the game. In a gaming machine having such a configuration, a lottery related to a game is always performed at least for each gaming unit, and suitable processing is required.

On the other hand, the slot machine 1 which is the gaming machine of the present embodiment may perform an internal lottery process of determining one of the lottery target combinations (including loss) as a winner from a plurality of lottery target combinations. It is possible, and in the internal lottery process, after the initial setting process, until a predetermined end condition (determining that one of the lottery target combinations has been won or drawing lots for all the lottery target combinations) is satisfied. It is a configuration in which a common process of determining whether or not one lottery target combination is won is repeatedly executed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations as a loop process.

According to this configuration, when one of the lottery target combinations is determined as a winning combination from a plurality of lottery target combinations, a common process for determining whether or not to determine one lottery target combination is a loop process, and a predetermined end is performed. Since the execution may be repeated until the condition is satisfied, the program capacity can be reduced.

In this embodiment, the slot machine 1 is applied as a gaming machine, but as a gaming machine, a gaming ball is launched into a gaming area to play a game, and for example, whether or not the gaming ball is a big hit due to a prize or the like. A pachinko gaming machine having a configuration for determining one of the determination targets from a plurality of determination targets, such as a configuration for determining the above, may be applied.

Further, in this embodiment, as a condition for ending the loop processing, the loop processing for all the lottery target combinations that are the targets of the lottery in the internal lottery is completed, or the lottery target combination of the predetermined combination number is won in the loop processing. Although it is applied that it is determined to be, a configuration in which only one of them is applied as an end condition may be used.

In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, in the internal lottery process, after the initial setting process, a predetermined end condition (determination that any of the lottery target combinations has been won or lottery is performed for all the lottery target combinations). The loop processing is repeatedly executed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations until it is established. In the loop processing, the current position address (HL) is updated so as to advance by one address, and the search data specified from the updated address is searched. It is used to determine whether or not to win the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number, and in the initial setting process, the first lottery target combination (normally, the combination number 4).
The address one address before the address (address nc in BB, address nd in normal times) corresponding to the search data corresponding to the lottery target combination of 8 and the lottery target combination of the combination number 50 in BB is initially used. It is a configuration to be set as the current position address (HL).

According to this configuration, in the initial setting process, the address one address before the address where the search data corresponding to the first lottery target combination is specified is set as the initial current position address (HL), so that the initial setting is made. In both the first loop process and the second and subsequent loop processes after the process, the search data used for determination in the loop process is specified from the address where the current position address (HL) is updated by one address. It is possible to do so, and it is not necessary to change the processing contents between the loop processing performed first and the loop processing performed after the second time after the initial setting processing.

In this embodiment, in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the current position address (HL) is updated by one address, and the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number is used by using the search data specified from the updated address. It is configured to determine whether or not to win, but in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the value of the predetermined combination number of the lottery target combination that determines whether or not to win, and the remaining number of repetitions of the loop process. The value or the like may be updated by a certain value, and it may be determined whether or not the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number is won by using the search data specified from the updated value.
Even in such a configuration, in the initial setting process, after setting the value before a certain value of the value for specifying the search data corresponding to the first lottery target combination as the initial value, in each loop process,
By configuring the value for specifying the search data to be updated by a fixed value, the search data is used in both the first loop process and the second and subsequent loop processes after the initial setting process. It becomes possible to specify, and it is not necessary to change the processing content between the loop processing performed first and the loop processing performed after the second time after the initial setting processing.

Further, in this embodiment, the current position address (HL) is updated by one address in the loop processing of the internal lottery processing, but a configuration in which a plurality of addresses are updated may also be used.

Further, in this embodiment, in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the search data is specified based on the updated current position address (HL), and the corresponding lottery is performed based on the determination value data specified using the search data. Although it is a configuration for determining whether or not the target combination has been won, the internal lottery process is not limited to the configuration for specifying the search data from the updated current position address (HL), and at least a predetermined lottery target combination has been won. The data used for the determination may be specified from the updated current position address (HL), and for example, the determination value data, the winning number, or the like may be applied as the data used for the determination. As a configuration in which the judgment value data is applied as the data used for the judgment, for example, the judgment value data used for the judgment is directly specified from the updated current position address (HL), and the corresponding lottery target combination is based on the judgment value data. The winning number may be determined as to whether or not the player has won, or the winning number may be applied as the data used for the determination. Is specified, and it is determined whether or not the winning number is the target of the lottery in the currently controlled gaming state, and if the winning number is not the target of the lottery in the current gaming state, the winning combination corresponding to the winning number is won. It may be configured to determine that it does not exist.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment can be controlled to a plurality of gaming states (BB, normal) in which at least a part of the lottery target combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery is different, and the loop process in the internal lottery process. Then, the winning combination number (winning number) of the lottery target combination that is the target of the internal lottery is updated in a predetermined order (in descending order of the winning combination number), and in the initial setting process, the game state (BB) is set as the first lottery target combination. , Normal), and different lottery target combinations (normally, the lottery target combination with the combination number 48, and during BB, the lottery target combination with the combination number 50) are set.

According to this configuration, in the initial setting process, by setting different lottery target combinations according to the game state as the first lottery target combination, it is possible to control a plurality of game states in which the lottery target combination is different.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment can be controlled to a plurality of gaming states (BB, normal) in which at least a part of the lottery target combinations to be drawn in the internal lottery is different, and in the internal lottery process, the initial stage is In the setting process, the loop process is repeatedly executed within the range of the winning number (B) set in the B register. In the initial setting process, the number of loops differs depending on the gaming state, and the winning number (48) and BB are normally used. The winning number (50) is set inside.

According to this configuration, in the initial setting process, by setting a different number of loops according to the game state, it is possible to control a plurality of game states with different lottery target combinations.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can perform an internal lottery process of determining one of the lottery target combinations (including a loss) from a plurality of lottery target combinations as a winner. After the initial setting process, the loop process is repeatedly executed until a predetermined end condition (determining that one of the lottery target combinations has been won or drawing lots for all the lottery target combinations) is satisfied. In the loop processing, when the current position address (HL) is updated by one address, the search data stored in the current position address (HL) is stored in the game state (as the next process after saving the updated address). The configuration proceeds to a process of determining whether or not the determination value data is a variable combination according to RT0 to 4).

According to this configuration, in the next loop processing, it will be updated in this loop processing.
The address can be updated based on the saved address.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can perform an internal lottery process for determining one of the lottery target combinations (including a loss) from a plurality of lottery target combinations as a winner. After the initial setting process, the loop process is repeatedly executed until a predetermined end condition (determining that one of the lottery target combinations has been won or drawing lots for all the lottery target combinations) is satisfied. The plurality of lottery target combinations include variable combinations in which at least one of the lottery targets or not or the winning probability differs depending on the game state (RT0 to 4), and in the loop processing, the updated current position address (HL) is included. It is determined whether or not the value specified from is the variable flag data (FF), and if it is the variable flag data (FF), the processing peculiar to the variable combination (the current variable combination). Move to the process of specifying the search data corresponding to the game state), and if it is not the variable flag data (FF), the process common to all the lottery target combinations (determine whether or not the corresponding lottery target combination has been won). It is a configuration to shift to the process to be performed).

According to this configuration, by referring to the variable flag data (FF) specified from the updated current position address (HL), in addition to specifying the search data corresponding to the lottery target combination, the game state (RT0) It is possible to specify whether or not to be a lottery target or at least one of the winning probabilities is a different variable combination according to 4), and to change the transfer destination of the processing.

In this embodiment, the slot machine 1 is configured to repeat the loop process with the winning number set in the B register in the initial setting process of the internal lottery process as the remaining number of repeated loops, and the loop process is updated. It is determined whether or not the value specified from the current position address (HL) is the variable flag data (FF), and if it is the variable flag data (FF), the processing peculiar to the variable combination (corresponding). For the variable combination, the process shifts to the process of specifying the search data corresponding to the current gaming state, and if it is not the variable variable flag data (FF), the process common to all the lottery target combinations (winning for the corresponding lottery target combination). In the slot machine 1, the search data corresponding to each lottery target combination is arranged in the internal lottery table in descending order of the combination number, as in the present embodiment. In addition, in a configuration in which all variable combinations as lottery target combinations are arranged in a predetermined combination number range (1 to 13 in this embodiment) (see FIG. 13), in the loop processing, an internal lottery is performed. In the initial setting process of the process, the loop process is repeatedly executed within the range of the number of loops (winning number) set in the B register, and the rest of the loop count is within the range of the specific number of times corresponding to the range of the predetermined combination number (for example,). It is determined whether it is 1 to 13 times, etc.), and if it is within the specified number of times range, it shifts to the processing peculiar to the variable combination, and if it is not within the specified number of times range, it is common to all the lottery target combinations. A configuration that shifts to processing may be used. Even in such a configuration, the slot machine 1 identifies that the target of the lottery is a variable combination by referring to the remaining number of loops (winning number of the B register) in the loop processing of the internal lottery processing. , The migration destination of the process can be changed. Further, by referring to the remaining number of loops (winning number of the B register), it is possible to specify that the winning combination has fluctuations, so that the fluctuation flag data (FF) is not set in the internal lottery table. It is possible to reduce the capacity of the internal lottery table.

Further, in the internal lottery table, the search data corresponding to each lottery target combination is arranged in descending order of the combination number, and all the variable combinations as the lottery target combination are arranged below the predetermined combination number (for example, 13 or less). In the arranged configuration, it is determined whether the remaining number of loops of the loop process in the internal lottery process is less than or equal to the specific number of times corresponding to the predetermined combination number (for example, 13 times or less), and the number of times is less than or equal to the specific number of times. In some cases, the process may be shifted to a process peculiar to the variable combination, and if the number of times is not less than a specific number, the process may be shifted to a process common to all the lottery target combinations.
In such a configuration, it is only necessary to determine whether the remaining number of loops in the loop processing is less than or equal to the specified number of times, so it is determined whether or not the remaining number of loops is the lower limit value of the specified number of times range. As described above, the processing load can be reduced as compared with the configuration in which the processing of the migration destination is changed based on whether or not the remaining number of loops is within the specific number of times range.

In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to perform an internal lottery process of determining one of the lottery target combinations (including loss) from a plurality of lottery target combinations as a winning, and in the internal lottery process. After the initial setting process, the loop process is repeatedly executed until a predetermined end condition (determining that one of the lottery target combinations has been won or drawing lots for all the lottery target combinations) is satisfied. The plurality of lottery target combinations include variable combinations in which at least one of the winning probabilities differs depending on whether or not the lottery target is set according to the game state (RT0 to 4), and the state values (0 to 4) in a predetermined range are the games. It is assigned according to the state (RT), and in the loop processing, when the lottery target is a variable combination, the state value corresponding to the current gaming state (RT0 to 4) is within a predetermined range (0 to 4).

If it is determined that the BB has won in the game, the internal middle flag of the BB and the first hit flag of the BB can be set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and then in the main process. , If the setting status of the loss and setting flag, the internal middle flag of BB and the BB first hit flag is determined, and the loss and setting flag is not set and the BB first hit flag is set, and When the flag with loss and setting is not set, and the BB first hit flag and the BB internal middle flag are not set, the lottery type setting process is performed and the lottery type is set according to the winning number. However, in the internal lottery process, it is possible to set the loss and the set flag in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c according to the lottery result, and at least one after the BB is won and transferred to the inside. When it is determined that the game has been played but the winning of the BB is still carried over (for example, S in the internal lottery process of this embodiment).
When it is determined that the internal flag of BB is set by the step of b56, etc.),
In the main process, the loss and the set flag are set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c.
When the loss and the flag with setting are not set, the lottery type setting process may be performed. In such a configuration, in the main process, it is only determined whether or not the loss and the flag with setting are set, and if the BB is won without being inside the BB, the lottery type setting process is performed. On the other hand, when the winning of BB is carried over, it is possible to control not to perform the lottery type setting process.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment can update the lottery type to a value corresponding to the winning number by performing the lottery type setting process, and the lottery type does not perform the advantageous section lottery or the AT lottery. It is a configuration including a lottery type 0 indicating that effect.

According to this configuration, by referring to the set lottery type in the advantageous section processing for performing the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery processing for performing the AT lottery, the winning number and the internal middle flag which are the lottery results of the internal lottery can be displayed. It can be specified that the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery are not performed without reference.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment has a configuration in which it is possible to set a lottery type (1 to 4) according to a winning number determined by an internal lottery by performing a lottery type setting process, and the internal lottery process. In, the lottery type is initialized to 0 at the start of the process and before it is determined whether or not any of the lottery target combinations has been won, and the internal middle flag is set in the main process. If it is determined whether or not the flag is set, the lottery type setting process is not performed, and the lottery type (1 to 4) is not set in the type setting area, so that the internal lottery process is performed. The lottery type (0) set at the start of is maintained.

According to this configuration, when the winning of the special role is carried over, it is possible to prevent the value of the lottery type set in the previous game from remaining.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can set the internal middle flag when the winning of the special combination is carried over in the internal lottery process, and in the main process, it is determined whether or not the internal middle flag is set. The lottery type setting process is performed when the flag is not set. In the lottery type setting process, the winning number set by the internal lottery process is a winning combination with no setting difference, which is advantageous. When the lottery type (2 to 4) is set and the winning number is not the target of the advantageous section lottery or the AT lottery, the set difference combination is not the target of the section lottery or the AT lottery. Is configured to set the lottery type (1).

According to this configuration, even if the winning of the special role is not carried over and the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery is not performed, or even if the winning of the special role is not carried over, the advantageous section lottery or AT

[Action effect 4]
As a conventional slot machine, a prize with a different winning probability depending on the set value and a prize with a common winning probability regardless of the set value are provided, and when a prize with a common winning probability is won regardless of the set value. Is configured to give a privilege that is advantageous to the player, but does not give the privilege when a prize having a different winning probability differs depending on the set value is won.

In a slot machine having such a configuration, if a prize having the same winning probability is won regardless of the set value, a privilege advantageous to the player can be given, but a prize having a different winning probability depending on the set value is given. When deciding whether or not to grant benefits when not granting benefits when winning, check the type of winning prize and decide whether or not to grant benefits according to the result. Although it will be decided, it is necessary to specify whether the winning probability is different or the same depending on the set value for each type of winning, and the process when deciding whether to grant the privilege or not. Becomes complicated.

On the other hand, the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can execute various processes by the main control unit 41, and by performing the lottery type setting process, the lottery type according to the winning number determined by the internal lottery process. Is possible, and by performing the advantageous section processing and the AT lottery processing, it is advantageous to determine whether or not to shift to the advantageous section as the advantageous related processing related to the advantageous section advantageous to the player by using the lottery type. It is possible to perform a section lottery and an AT lottery to determine whether or not to control the AT, and it is a configuration in which one of a plurality of types of set values 1 to 6 can be set, and an internal lottery is possible. The winning number determined in the processing includes the winning combination number of the lottery target winning combination that is allowed to generate a prize, and the number (0) corresponding to the loss that is not allowed to generate a winning combination of any of the lottery target winning combinations, and further lottery. The target combination includes a combination with a setting difference in which the winning ratio is different according to the set value and a combination without a setting difference in which the winning ratio is the same regardless of the setting value. If the winning number determined by the internal lottery is a lost or set difference combination, the lottery type becomes 0, while the selection number is an advantageous section lottery or an AT lottery target with no setting difference. If the lottery types 2 to 4 are set and the winning number is a winning combination that is not subject to the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery, the lottery type 1 is set and the advantageous section processing and the AT lottery processing are performed. Then, when the lottery type is 0 or 1, the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery is not performed, and when the lottery type is 2 to 4, the advantageous section lottery or AT is performed using the lottery types 2 to 4. It is a structure to hold a lottery.

According to this configuration, if the winning number determined in the internal lottery process is a winning combination with a loss or a setting difference, that is, a winning combination with a different winning ratio according to the set value, the lottery type is 0. If the winning number determined in the internal lottery process is a winning combination that is the target of the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery, that is, the winning ratio is the same according to the set value, and the advantageous section lottery, If the role is the target of the AT lottery, the lottery type is 2-4.
If the winning number determined in the internal lottery process is a winning combination that is not subject to the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery, that is, the winning ratio is the same according to the set value, but the advantageous section If the winning combination is not subject to the lottery or AT lottery, the lottery type is set to 1, and if the lottery type is 0 or 1, the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery is not performed and the lottery type is 2 to 2. If it is 4, the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery are performed using the lottery types 2 to 4, so that when the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery are performed, the winning combination in the internal lottery is performed according to the set value. It is not necessary to individually judge whether the winning ratio is different or the same, and it is easy to decide whether the winning ratio is different or the same depending on the lottery type. Can be specified in.

Further, if the winning number determined in the internal lottery process is a lost or set difference combination, that is, if the winning rate is different depending on the set value, the lottery type is 0 and the internal lottery is performed. If the winning number determined in the process is a winning combination that is not subject to the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery, that is, the winning ratio is the same according to the set value, but the winning combination is the target of the advantageous section lottery or AT lottery. If the winning combination is not, the lottery type is set to 1, and the winning numbers determined in the internal lottery process are different in the winning ratio according to the set value. It is possible to perform control that distinguishes between the case where the lottery is not performed and the case where the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery are not performed even if the winning numbers have the same winning ratio according to the set value.

In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, at the stage of determining the winning number in the internal lottery process, the lottery with a setting difference is obtained when the winning number is a lost combination indicating that none of the lottery target combinations is won or a combination with a setting difference. It is possible to set a loss and a setting difference flag indicating that the target combination has been won or lost, and at the start of the process in the internal lottery process.
By initializing the lottery type at the timing before determining whether or not any of the lottery target combinations has been won, the lottery type becomes 0, and whether the loss and setting difference flags are set in the main process. If it is determined whether or not the flag is set, the lottery type setting process is not performed, and the lottery types 1 to 4 are not set in the type setting area. Therefore, at the start of the internal lottery process. The configuration is such that the set lottery type is maintained at 0.

According to this configuration, when setting the lottery types 2 to 4 or the lottery type 1 used for the advantageous section lottery and the AT lottery, there is a setting difference in the ratio in which each winning number is won according to the set value. It is not necessary to judge whether the combination is the same or the same setting difference, and it is easy to determine whether the combination has a setting difference or no setting difference depending on whether the loss and the setting difference flag are set. Can be identified. Also, since the lottery type is initialized at the start of the internal lottery process,
When the winning number determined by the internal lottery process is a combination with a setting difference, it is possible to prevent the lottery types 1 to 4 in the previous game from remaining.

In this embodiment, the advantageous section that is advantageous to the player is applied as an advantageous state that is advantageous to the player, but the probability that a display result that is advantageous to the player is derived is advantageous to the player. The probability that the derivation of the display result is allowed is higher than usual, the operation mode for deriving the display result that is advantageous to the player is notified, and the probability that the privilege that is advantageous to the player is given is usually. Any configuration may be used as long as it is configured to apply a state in which it becomes higher than the above.

Further, in the present embodiment, the advantageous-related processing related to the advantageous state is a process for determining whether or not to control the advantageous state, and the advantageous section lottery for determining whether or not to shift to the advantageous section is a lottery type. It is a process to change the advantage of the advantageous section and the advantage of the advantageous state based on The AT lottery process performed based on this, the lottery type setting process for setting the lottery type used for these processes, and the like are applicable. Further, since the decision to shift to the advantageous section is made, the process of shifting to the advantageous section, the process of controlling the lighting of the advantageous section LED 25 with the shift to the advantageous section, and the like are also applicable. Further, for example, in the configuration of determining whether to shift to the advantageous section based on the lottery result of the internal lottery, determining whether to control the AT, or determining the number of AT games, it is related to the advantageous state. As the advantage-related process, a process of shifting to an advantageous section based on the lottery result of the internal lottery, a process of controlling the AT, a process of adding the number of AT games, and the like are also applicable.

Further, in the storage area of ROM 41b specified by the internal lottery table index, the normal time initial address designation data is stored in the area of the address indicated by the internal lottery table index, and the BB initial address designation data is the normal time initial. It is stored in the area of the address next to the area in which the address specification data is stored. In this embodiment, the slot machine 1 is configured to include one type of BB and has one BB medium initial address designation data in the initial setting data table, but the slot machine has a plurality of types of BBs. In the configuration including (for example, BB1, BB2, etc.), a configuration having BB middle initial address designation data for each type of BB included in the slot machine may be used.

As shown in FIG. 24, in the search data table, the search data of each lottery target combination is arranged in the order of the combination number of the lottery target combination, as in the first embodiment, and the lottery target having a large combination number is arranged. The search data of the combination is stored in the front side of the storage area of the search data table, and the search data of the lottery target combination having a small combination number is stored in the rear side of the storage area of the search data table. ..

Further, in the search data table, the winning number reset flag data (FE) indicating that the winning number (B) is reset, the winning number data indicating the winning number to be reset, and the addresses for a predetermined area are jumped over. Jumping flag data (FD, FF) indicating that processing is to be performed, and jumping destination address designation data that can specify the jumping destination address are set. The jump destination address designation data is data showing a difference value from the address of the area in which the jump destination address designation data is stored to the jump destination address. The jump destination address is the RO in which the data to be processed next (for example, the corresponding winning number reset flag data (FE)) is stored.
It is an address of a predetermined area of M41b.

In the search data table, the winning number reset flag data (F) is located at the beginning of the area where the search data corresponding to the lottery target combination of each of the above-mentioned 1st group to 5th group is stored.
E) and the winning number data are arranged, the winning number data is arranged in the area of the address next to the address where the winning number reset flag data (FE) is arranged, and the winning number data is arranged. In the area of each address after the address, the search data of the lottery target combination of each group is arranged in descending order of the combination number.

In addition, the area between the areas where the search data of each group of the first group and the second group is stored is not a lottery target inside, but is a lottery target combination only inside the non-inside. The jumping flag data (FD) of the middle role and the two jump destination address specification data (internal middle, non-internal middle) are arranged, and the lottery target role with the smallest role number among the lottery target roles of the first group is arranged. The jump flag data (FD) is placed in the area of the address next to the address where the search data of is placed, and the jump flag data (FD) is placed in the area of the address next to the address where the jump flag data (FD) is placed. The second group is in the area of each address after the address where the destination address specification data (internal inside, non-internal medium) is arranged and the jump destination address specification data (internal medium, non-internal medium) is arranged. The winning number reset flag data (FE), the winning number data, and the search data of the lottery target combination are arranged.

Further, in the area between the areas where the search data of each group of the 3rd group and the 4th group is stored, the judgment value data fluctuates depending on the game state (RT). F

3, RT4) is arranged, and the jump flag data (jump flag data (
Jumping destination address specification data (RT0-4) corresponding to each RT in the area of each address after the address where the jumping flag data (FF) of the variable combination is placed.
Are arranged in ascending order of RT value, and in the area of each address after the address where the jump destination address specification data corresponding to RT4 is arranged among the jump destination address specification data, the winning number of the 4th group The reset flag data (FE), the winning number data, and the search data of the lottery target combination are arranged.

In addition, the winning number reset flag data (FE), the winning number data, and the search data corresponding to the lottery target combination of the fourth group are arranged separately for each RT, and are arranged in ascending order of the RT value. There is. Further, 0 data (no data) having a data value of 0 is stored in each area of the address next to the address where the last search data of each RT division is arranged.

Further, in the search data table, in addition to the area at the beginning of each group of the first group to the fourth group, the winning number is regenerated between the areas where the search data corresponding to the lottery target combination of the predetermined combination number is stored. The setting flag data (FE) and the winning number data are appropriately arranged, and by arranging the winning number reset flag data (FE) and the winning number data, a lottery is performed for the lottery target combination not included in each group. The winning number can be reset so that it will not be done.

For example, in the second embodiment, with respect to the lottery target combination of the fourth group, when the game state is RT3, the lottery target combination of the combination numbers 3 to 8 and the combination number 15 is the target of the lottery, and the combination number 9 ~
The lottery target combination 14 has a configuration that is not the target of the lottery, and as shown in FIG. 24, in the search data table, it is next to the address ni + 2 of the area where the search data of the lottery target combination of the combination number 15 is stored. The winning number reset flag data (FE) is stored in the area of the address nj, and the winning number data (8) for setting the winning number 8 is stored in the area of the next address nj + 1, and then the winning number data (8) is stored. Search data corresponding to the lottery target combination of the combination numbers 8 to 3 is stored in each area after the address. As a result, when the game state is RT3, after the lottery target combination of the combination number 15 is drawn, the lottery target combination of the combination numbers 9 to 14 which is not the target of the lottery in RT3 is not drawn. The winning number can be reset to the winning number 8.

As shown in FIG. 25, in the determination value data table, the determination value data of each lottery target combination is the next storage area of the storage area specified by the reference address of the determination value data table, as in the first embodiment. It is arranged sequentially from. Each determination value data is stored in the area of the address specified based on the sum of the value of the search data corresponding to the determination value data and the value of the reference address in the determination value data table, as in the first embodiment. .. Further, the determination value data is divided into the determination value data of the combination without setting difference and the determination value data of the combination with setting difference, and the presence / absence of the setting difference and the setting value are the same as in the first embodiment. They are arranged in a predetermined order according to the situation. Further, the determination value data includes 1-byte data having a data length of 1 byte and 2-byte data having a data length of 2 bytes. They are arranged in a predetermined order according to the situation.

Further, hereinafter, as in the first embodiment, the 1-byte data group of the combination without setting difference and the combination of 2 with no setting difference
The boundary with the byte data group is referred to as a first data boundary, and the value of the start address of the 2-byte data group having no setting difference as the first data boundary is referred to as a first data boundary value. Further, the boundary between the 2-byte data group of the combination without setting difference and the 1-byte data group of the combination with setting difference, that is, the boundary between the judgment value data group of the combination without setting difference and the judgment value data group of the combination with setting difference is the first. Called a two-data boundary
The value of the start address of the 1-byte data group having a setting difference, which is the second data boundary, is called the second data boundary value. Further, the boundary between the 1-byte data group of the combination with setting difference and the 2-byte data group of the combination with setting difference is called the third data boundary, and the head of the 2-byte data group of the combination with setting difference which is the third data boundary. The value of the address is called the third data boundary value.

Next, the control contents of the internal lottery process will be described with reference to FIGS. 26 to 28.

As shown in FIG. 26, in the internal lottery process, first, the lottery type data set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c by the lottery type setting process of the main process is initialized to 0 (Sd1). After that, the data (internal lottery table index (internal lottery table head address na)) registered in advance in the predetermined area of ROM 41b is acquired, and the current position address (HL) is obtained.
Is set in the H register and the L register (Sd2). ROM41b in the H register
The high-order byte of the address indicating the predetermined area of is set, and the low-order byte of the address is set in the L register. Hereinafter, the H register and the L register may be collectively referred to as an HL register.

Then, with reference to a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, a bonus number (0 or 1 in this embodiment) is acquired and set in the A register as an addition value (A) (Sd3). The bonus number is a number that can specify the type of the winning special role, and in this embodiment, "1" is set as the bonus number in the game in which the special role BB is won in the internal lottery. after that,
The bonus number is initialized and set to "0" when the BB that triggered the setting of the bonus number wins a prize. That is, the bonus number is "1" when the BB is inside the winning and carried over, and "0" when it is not inside.
". In this embodiment, one type of special role (BB) is included, but two or more types of special roles (for example, BB1, BB2, BB3, etc.) are included, and each type of special role is included. In addition to assigning different bonus numbers, the internal lottery table may be configured to include BB middle initial address designation data for each type of special combination.

After the bonus number is set in the A register as the addition value (A) in the step of Sd3, the addition process is performed twice in succession (Sd4, Sd5).

By performing the first addition process in the step of Sd4, the current position address by the value of the addition value (A) set in the step of Sd3 from the start address of the internal lottery table specified by the internal lottery table index. By advancing (HL), if the currently controlled game state is not inside and the bonus number is "0", the current position address (HL) is advanced by 0 in the initial setting data table. The address of the storage area (address na in this embodiment) in which the initial address designation data is normally stored is set as the current position address (HL). On the other hand, when the game state is inside and the bonus number is "1", the current position address (HL) is advanced by 1, and the BB middle initial address designation data is stored in the initial setting data table. The address of the storage area (address nb in this embodiment) is used as the current position address (HL). Then, the current position address (HL)
) Is added to the initial address specification data stored in the area of the address specified by ().
A) is set in the A register.

Then, in this state, by performing the second addition process in the step of Sd5, the current position address (HL) is set to the address na of the storage area in which the normal time initial address designation data is stored by the first addition process. If it is advanced, the current position address (HL) is further advanced by the difference value stored as the initial address designation data in the normal time from the address na, and the start address of the area used in the normal time in the search data table (book). In the embodiment, the address immediately before the address nc) is used as the current position address (HL). On the other hand, when the current position address (HL) is advanced to the address nb of the storage area in which the initial address designation data in the BB is stored by the first addition process, the current position address (HL) is advanced from the address nb to B.
The difference value stored as the initial address designation data in B, and the current position address (H)
By advancing L), the address immediately before the start address (address nd in this embodiment) of the area used in the BB in the search data table is set as the current position address (HL).

After performing the addition processing in the steps of Sd4 and Sd5, the random number value for the internal lottery latched at the time when the start switch 7 is operated in the game start waiting processing of the main processing is acquired and set in the IX register. (Sd6).

Then, the predetermined area of the RAM 41c where the loss and setting difference flag can be set by the process described later in the internal lottery process is initialized to 0, and when the loss and setting difference flag is set, the flag is set. Clear (Sd7).

Then, 1 is added to the HL register to advance the current position address (HL) by 1 (Sd8).
.. As a result, the current position address (HL) is the start address (address nc) of the area normally used in the search data table or the start address of the area used in the BB, depending on whether or not the gaming state is BB. (Address nd).

After that, the data (search data or flag data) stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b corresponding to the current position address (HL) is acquired and set in the A register (Sd9).
), Compare the value of the data with a predetermined value for determination (FD, FF, FE).
It is determined whether the data is the search data, the jumping flag data (FD) of the non-internal middle role, the jumping flag data (FF) of the variable combination, or the winning number reset flag data (FE) (. Sd10, Sd16, Sd21). When the value of the A register is compared with the predetermined value for determination, the main control unit 41 updates the flag register so that if these values match, it can identify these values. If the values of A do not match, by updating the flag register so that it can be specified, it is possible to specify the comparison result between the value of the A register and the predetermined value for judgment based on the flag register. It has become.

In the step of Sd10, the data set in the A register is compared with the predetermined value (FD) for determining the jump flag data (FD) of the non-internal middle role, and based on the flag register,
If it is determined that these values match, that is, if it is determined that the data set in the A register is the jump flag data (FD), the process proceeds to the step of Sd11. On the other hand, A
When it is determined that the data set in the register and the predetermined value (FD) for determination of the non-internal intermediary jumping flag data (FD) do not match, that is, the data set in the A register is the jumping flag. If it is determined that it is not data (FD), the process proceeds to the step of Sd16.

In the step of Sd11, 1 is added to the HL register to obtain the current position address (HL).
(Sd11). After that, in the inside of the bonus, based on whether or not the internal inside flag indicating that the BB is won and carried over in the game before the game is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c. It is determined whether or not it exists (Sd12), and if it is determined that it is inside, 1 is added to the HL register to advance the current position address (HL) by 1.
Sd13), proceed to the step of Sd14. On the other hand, if it is determined in the step of Sd12 that it is not inside, the process proceeds to the step of Sd14 without processing the step of Sd13.

In the step of Sd14, the jump destination address specification data (non-internal or internal) stored in the predetermined area of the ROM 41b specified by the current position address (HL) is acquired, and the addition value (A) is stored in the A register. ) (Sd14). After that, addition processing is performed (
Sd15), proceed to the step of Sd21.

By performing the addition process in the step of Sd15, the current position address (HL) is advanced by the value of the addition value (A) from the address at the start of the addition process. The added value (A) is
The jump destination address specification data (non-internal or internal) is set by the step of Sb14. The jump destination address designation data (non-internal or internal) is data showing the difference value from the address of the area where the jump destination address designation data is stored to the jump destination address, and is jumping. As the destination address designation data (non-internal), the address (address nf) of the area where the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the second group is stored is set in advance, and the jump destination address designation data (jump destination address designation data). The address (address ng) of the area in which the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the third group is stored is preset as (inside). Therefore, in the addition process in the step of Sd15, when the jump destination address designation data (inside non-internal) is set to the addition value (A) by the step of Sd14, the winning number reset flag data of the second group is set. Address of the area where (FE) is stored (address nf)
Is the current position address (HL). On the other hand, when the jump destination address designation data (inside) is set to the addition value (A) by the step of Sd14, the area where the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the third group is stored. The address (address ng) of is the current position address (HL). Then, ROM 4 specified by the current position address (HL).
The winning number reset flag data (FE) stored in the area 1b is acquired and set in the A register.

In the step of Sd10, when it is determined that the data set in the A register and the predetermined value (FD) for determination of the jump flag data (FD) of the non-internal middle role do not match, that is, it is set in the A register. When it is determined that the existing data is not the jumping flag data (FD), it is determined whether or not the data in the A register is the jumping flag data (FF) of the variable combination (Sd16).

In the step of Sd16, the data set in the A register is compared with the predetermined value (FD) for determining the jump flag data (FD) of the variable combination, and when these values match based on the flag register. If it is determined, that is, if it is determined that the data set in the A register is the jumping flag data (FD) of the variable combination, the process proceeds to the step of Sd17.
On the other hand, if it is determined based on the flag register that these values do not match, that is, if it is determined that the data set in the A register is not the jumping flag data (FD) of the variable combination, the step of Sd21. Proceed to.

In the step of Sd17, 1 is added to the HL register to obtain the current position address (HL).
(Sd17). As a result, the address next to the address (address nh) of the area where the jump flag data (FF) of the RT variable combination is stored, that is, the address of the area where the jump destination address designation data (RT0) is stored. Is the current position address (HL).

After that, it is determined whether the currently controlled gaming state is RT 0 to 4, and the RT value (0 to 4) of the currently controlled gaming state is set in the A register as an addition value (A). (Sd18), the addition process is performed twice in succession (Sd19, Sd20), and the process proceeds to the step of Sd21.

By performing the first addition process in the step of Sd19, the value of the addition value (A) is further advanced from the address of the area in which the jump destination address designation data (RT0) advanced in the step of Sd17 is stored. The address becomes the current position address (HL). That is, the address advanced by the value of the current RT set by the step of Sd18 is set as the current position address (HL). As a result, the jump destination address specification data (RT0) currently corresponding to RT
The address of the area where ~ 4) is stored is defined as the current position address (HL). Then, the jump destination address designation data (RT0 to RT4) stored in the area of ROM 41b specified by the advanced current position address (HL) is acquired and set in the A register as the added value (A).

Then, in this state, by performing the second addition process in the step of Sd20, 1
Jumping destination address specification data (RT0-4) corresponding to the current RT advanced by the second addition process
) Is stored from the address of the area, and the addition value set by the first addition process ()
The address further advanced by the value of A) is defined as the current position address (HL). In the addition value (A) by the first addition processing, the jump destination address designation data (RT0 to 4) currently corresponding to RT is used.
Is set. The jump destination address designation data (RT0 to 4) is data showing the difference value from the address of the area where each jump destination address designation data is stored to the jump destination address, and is the data indicating the jump destination address designation. As the data (RT0), the address (not shown) of the area where the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the fourth group to be the target of the internal lottery when RT is 0 is stored is preset. , As the jump destination address designation data (RT1), the winning number reset flag data (F) of the 4th group to be the target of the internal lottery when RT is 1.
The address of the area where E) is stored (not shown) is preset, and as the jump destination address designation data (RT2), when RT is 2, the 4th group that is the target of the internal lottery is won. The address (not shown) of the area where the number reset flag data (FE) is stored is preset, and the jump destination address designation data (RT3) is targeted for internal lottery when RT is 3. When the address (address ni) of the area where the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the fourth group is stored is preset and RT is 4 as the jump destination address designation data (RT4). The address (not shown) of the area in which the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the fourth group to be the target of the internal lottery is stored is set in advance. Therefore, in the addition process in the step of Sd20, the address of the area where the winning number reset flag data (FE) of the fourth group corresponding to the value of the current RT is stored (for example, the current RT is 3).
In the case of, the address ni) is set as the current position address (HL). Then, the winning number reset flag data (FE) stored in the area of ROM 41b specified by the current position address (HL) is acquired and set in the A register.

In the step of Sd10, it is determined that the data set in the A register is not the jump flag data (FD) of the non-internal middle combination, and in the step of Sd16, the data set in the A register has a variable combination. If it is determined that the data is not the jumping flag data (FF), it is determined whether or not the data in the A register is the winning number reset flag data (FE) (Sd21).

In the step of Sd21, the data set in the A register is compared with the predetermined value (FE) for determination of the winning number reset flag data (FE), and it is determined that these values match based on the flag register. In that case, if it is determined that the winning number reset flag data (FE) is set in the A register, the process proceeds to the step of Sd22. On the other hand, a predetermined value for determining the data set in the A register and the winning number reset flag data (FE) (
If it is determined that the FD) does not match, that is, if it is determined that the winning number reset flag data (FE) set in the A register is not used, the process proceeds to the step of Sd27.

If it is determined in the step of Sd21 that the data set in the A register is the winning number reset flag data (FE), 1 is added to the HL register to the address of the area where the winning number data is stored. Advance the current position address (HL) by one (Sd22)
). Then, the winning number data stored in the area specified by the current position address (HL) is acquired and set in the B register as the winning number (B) (Sd23). In addition, S
In the step of d23, if the winning number (B) is already set in the B register, the winning number is updated to the value of the acquired winning number data and a new winning number corresponding to the next lottery target winning combination is to be drawn. Set (B). As a result, the lottery process for the lottery target winning combination of the winning combination number corresponding to the value between the already set winning number (B) and the newly set winning number (B) is omitted. For example, the currently controlled gaming state is RT3, 13 is set as the winning number (B), and the address nj is set as the current position address (HL), and the game state is stored in the address nj. Winning number reset flag data (FE
) Is set in the A register, the current position address (H) is set by the step of Sd22.
L) is updated to the address nj + 1, the value (6) of the winning number data stored in the address nj + 1 is newly set in the B register, and the winning combination corresponding to the value of the winning number data is the lottery target combination. Is set as the next lottery target, and the process related to the lottery described later is performed, and the lottery for the lottery target combinations of the winning combination numbers 7 to 12 which are not the lottery targets in RT3 is omitted.

After that, it is determined whether or not the winning number (B) set in the B register in the step of Sd23 is 0 (Sd24), and if it is determined that the winning number (B) is 0, S described later.
Proceed to step d55. On the other hand, if it is determined that the winning number (B) is not 0, H
1 is added to the L register, and the current position address (HL) is advanced by one to the address of the area where the search data of the winning combination number corresponding to the winning number (B) is stored (Sd25). Then, the search data stored in the area of ROM 41b specified by the advanced current position address (HL) is acquired, set in the A register (Sd26), and the process proceeds to the step of Sd27.

As shown in FIG. 27, in the step of Sd27, it is determined whether or not the data set in the A register is 0 (Sd27), and if the data is 0 and there is no data, it will be described later. The process proceeds to the step of Sd57, and after the winning number (B) set in the B register is corrected to 0 (Sd57), the process proceeds to the step of Sd55. On the other hand, if the data set in the A register is not 0 and there is data, the process proceeds to the step of Sd28.

In the step of Sd28, the value of the current position address (HL) set in the HL register is saved by storing it in a predetermined area (for example, a stack area) of the RAM 41c (Sd28), and then the winning determination data ED. The E register in which the lower data and the type coefficient E are set and the D register in which the upper data of the winning determination data ED is set are initialized and set to 0 (Sd29).

After that, by comparing the value of the search data set in the A register in the step of Sd11 or the step of Sd28 with the first data boundary value of the determination value data table, the current winning number specified based on the search data is obtained. It is determined whether or not the determination value data of the lottery target combination corresponding to (B) is the 1-byte data of the combination without setting difference (Sd30), and the determination value data is the 1-byte data of the combination without setting difference. If it is determined that the E register is set to Sd29.
By maintaining the state initialized in the step of, the type coefficient E is set to 0 (in binary display, "00".
”) And proceed to Sd37, which will be described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that the determination value data is not the 1-byte data of the set difference-less combination, 1 is added to the E register and the type coefficient E is updated to 1 (“01” in binary display) (). Sd31) By comparing the value of the search data set in the A register with the second data boundary value of the judgment value data table, the judgment value data specified based on the search data has no setting difference. It is determined whether or not the data is 2-byte data (Sd32).

Then, in the step of Sd32, when it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data of the A register is the 2-byte data of the setting difference-less combination, the E register is updated to 1 in the step of Sd32. By maintaining the state, the type coefficient E is maintained at 1 (“01” in binary display), and the process proceeds to the step of Sd37 described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that the determination value data is not the 2-byte data of the set difference-less combination, 1 is added to the E register and the type coefficient E is updated to 2 ("10" in binary display) ("10"). Sd33), the loss and the setting difference flag are set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c (Sd34). After that, by comparing the value of the search data in the A register with the third data boundary value in the judgment value data table, the judgment value data specified based on the search data is 1-byte data having a setting difference. It is determined whether or not there is (Sd35).

Then, in the step of Sb35, when it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data of the A register is 1-byte data having a setting difference, the E register is updated to 2 in the step of Sd33. By maintaining the state, the type coefficient E is maintained at 2 (“10” in binary display), and the process proceeds to the step of Sd37 described later. On the other hand, when it is determined that the determination value data is not the 1-byte data of the combination with the setting difference, and the determination value data is the 2-byte data of the combination with the setting difference, 1 is added to the E register to type. Coefficient E is 3 (
After updating to "11") in the binary number display (Sd36), the process proceeds to the step of Sb37.

As described above, in this embodiment, after the type coefficient E is initialized in the step of Sd29, the determination value data specified based on the search data is either the data with no setting difference or the data with the setting difference. It is set to a value (0 to 4) depending on whether the data is present or whether the data is 1-byte data or 2-byte data.

Then, in the step of Sd37, by acquiring the reference address of the determination value data table stored in the predetermined area of ROM 41b and setting it in the HL register, the current position address (HL) is set to the start address of the determination value data table. After setting (Sd37), addition processing is performed (Sd38).

By performing the addition process in the step of Sd38, the current position address (HL) is advanced by the value of the addition value (A) from the address at the start of the addition process. The added value (A) is
The search data of the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number is set by the step of Sd9 or the step of Sd26, and the start address of the determination value data table is set to the current position address (HL) by the step of Sd37. Since it is, the current position address (
By advancing the HL) by the addition value (A), the start address of the storage area (for example, address ma, etc.) in which the determination value data of the lottery target combination corresponding to the current winning number is stored in the determination value data table. Address mb, address mc, address md, address me, address mf, address mg, etc.) is the current position address (HL).

After performing the addition process in the step of Sd38, the set value check process is performed (Sd).
39) Acquire the set value set in the current slot machine 1 in the A register. After that, by subtracting 1 from the value of the A register, the value corrected by subtracting 1 from the current set value is set in the A register as the addition value (A) (Sd40).

Then, referring to the type coefficient E set in the E register by the steps Sd29 to Sd36 described above, the step of Sb27 is based on the value of the second predetermined bit (second bit from the bottom) of the data of the type coefficient E. It is determined whether or not the determination value data specified based on the search data acquired in the above is the data of the combination with the setting difference (Sd41). In the step of Sb40, it is determined whether or not the value of the second predetermined bit of the type coefficient E set in the E register is 1, and when the value of the second predetermined bit is 1, the search data is searched. It is determined that the determination value data specified based on the above is the data of the combination with the setting difference, while the determination value data is determined not to be the data of the combination with the setting difference when the value of the second predetermined bit is not 1. .. When it is determined that the determination value data is the data of the combination with the setting difference, the determination value data is the 2-byte data of the combination with the setting difference based on the type coefficient E set in the E register. Whether or not it is determined (Sd42). In the step of Sb4d, it is determined whether or not the value of the first predetermined bit of the type coefficient E set in the E register is 1, and when the value of the first predetermined bit is 1, the search data is obtained. While it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the above is 2-byte data, when the value of the first predetermined bit is not 1, it is determined that the determination value data is not 2-byte data. Then, when it is determined that the determination value data is 2-byte data, the value set in the A register in the step of Sd40 is added to the A register, so that the added value (A) set in the A register is added. ) Is doubled (Sd43).

Then, when it is determined in the step of Sd42 that the determination value data is 2-byte data, the added value (A) updated twice in the step of Sd43 is added to the HL register to obtain the current position address. After advancing (HL) by the added value (A) (Sd4)
4) Proceed to the step of Sb45 described later. If it is determined in the step of Sd42 that the determination value data is not 2-byte data, the addition value (A) set in the step of Sd40 is added to the HL register to obtain the current position address (HL). After advancing by the added value (A) (Sd44), the process proceeds to the step of Sb45. On the other hand, in the step of Sd41, the value of the type coefficient E is smaller than 2, and is set in the E register.
When it is determined that the value of the predetermined bit is not 1 and the determination value data specified based on the search data is not the determination value data of the combination with setting difference, that is, the determination value data of the combination without setting difference, Sd42 -Proceed to the step of Sd45 without processing the step of Sd44.

By adding the added value (A) to the current position address (HL) in the step of Sd44, the added value (A) is a value corresponding to the set value currently set in the slot machine 1 in the step of Sd40 ( Since the set value-1) is set, if the judgment value data fluctuates according to the set value, the address (for example, the address me) in which the value of the search data is added to the judgment value table reference address. , Address mg, etc.) and a value corresponding to the set value (for example, when the set value is 6 and the determination value data is 1-byte data, the set value is 6 for 5 addresses and the determination value is determined. When the data is 2-byte data, the process proceeds to the step of Sb44 in a state where the address (for example, address me + 5, address mg + 10, etc.) to which 10 addresses are added is set as the current position address (HL). on the other hand,
When it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data in the step of Sb40 is not the determination value data of the combination with setting difference and the processing of the step of Sb43 is not performed, that is, the determination specified based on the search data. When the value data is the judgment value data of the combination without setting difference, the address (for example, address ma, address mb, address mc, address md, etc.) obtained by adding the value of the search data to the judgment value table reference address is The process proceeds to the step of Sd45 with the current position address (HL) set.

Then, in the step of Sd45, the first predetermined bit of the data set in the E register is set in the flag register so as to be identifiable (for example, the value of the Z flag of the flag register is set to the 0th bit of the data in the E register. (For example, set to the value of), some data that can specify whether the judgment value data of the type coefficient E is 1-byte data or 2-byte data is saved. After that, the process proceeds to the step of Sd46, the determination value data stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b specified by the current position address (HL) set in the step of Sd38 or the step of Sd44 is acquired, and the lottery determination data is obtained. It is set in the E register as the first byte (lower byte) of (Sd46). After that, it is determined whether or not the determination value data is 1-byte data based on a part of the data of the type coefficient E saved in the step of Sd45 (Sd47). In the step of Sb47, when the type coefficient E set by the steps of Sd29 to Sd36 is 0 or 2, and the first predetermined bit of the saved type coefficient E is 0, it is specified based on the search data. While it is determined that the determination value data is 1-byte data, when the first predetermined bit of the saved type coefficient E is 1, it is determined that the determination value data specified based on the search data is not 1-byte data. do. And Sd4
If it is determined in step 7 that the determination value data is not 1-byte data, that is, if the determination value data is 2-byte data, the current position address (HL) is set to 1 by adding 1 to the HL register. After proceeding (Sd48), the current position address (HL)
), The determination value data stored in advance in the storage area of the ROM 41b is acquired and set in the D register as the second byte (upper byte) of the lottery determination data (Sd49).
), Proceed to the step of Sd50. On the other hand, in the step of Sd47, Sd29 to Sd3
When it is determined that the type coefficient E set in step 6 is 0 or 2, the first predetermined bit of the saved type coefficient E is 0, and the determination value data is 1-byte data, it is determined. The process proceeds to the step of Sd50 without processing the steps of Sd48 and Sd49.

Then, in the step of Sd50, the value of the D register is added to the upper byte of the IX register and the value of the E register is added to the lower byte of the IX register, so that the lottery determination data value is added to the random number value for the internal lottery. Add and perform an internal lottery (Sd50). Further, at the time of this addition, the value of the IX register is a predetermined number (maximum value 65535 (decimal number) that can be expressed in 2 bytes).
) Is exceeded, and if an overflow occurs, a flag register is set so that it can be specified that the overflow has occurred. On the other hand, if the value of the IX register does not exceed a predetermined number (maximum value 65535 (decimal number) that can be expressed in 2 bytes) and overflow does not occur, it is possible to specify that the overflow has not occurred. Set the flag register to.

Then, after adding the lottery determination data value to the random number value for the internal lottery in the step of Sd50, the current position address (HL) saved in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c in the step of Sd28 is returned to the HL register. (Sd51). As a result, the current winning number (B) in the search data table is stored in the HL register as the current position address (HL).
The address of the storage area of the ROM 41b in which the search data of) is stored will be set again.

As shown in FIG. 28, the current position address saved in the step of Sd51 (
After returning HL), the lottery target winning combination of the winning combination number corresponding to the current winning number (B) is based on the random number value for the internal lottery after the lottery determination data is added in the step of Sd50. It is determined whether or not the player has won (Sd52).

In the step of Sd52, when it is specified that an overflow has occurred when adding the values of the E register and the D register to the XI register in the step of Sd50 with reference to the flag register, it is set in the B register. It is determined that the winning combination of the current winning number (B) has been won, and the process proceeds to the step of Sd56. On the other hand, in the step of Sd52, when it is specified that the overflow has not occurred in the step of Sd50 by referring to the flag register, the lottery target combination of the current winning number (B) set in the B register. Determines that he has not won and proceeds to the step of Sd53.

Then, in the step of Sd53, the current winning number (B) is subtracted by 1 by subtracting 1 from the value of the B register (Sd53). Then, it is determined whether or not the winning number (B) after the subtraction in the step of Sd53 is 0 (Sd54).

If it is determined in the step of Sd54 that the winning number (B) after subtraction set in the B register is not 0, the process returns to the step of Sd7 described above, and the processing of the steps of Sd7 to Sd54 is repeated. On the other hand, in the step of Sd54, the winning number after subtraction (B)
) Is 0, all winning numbers that can be the target of the lottery according to the currently controlled gaming state (in this embodiment, 3 to 50 during non-BB, 1 during BB, Regarding 2), it was determined whether or not the winning was won, but after determining that any winning number was desired to be won, that is, it was a loss, and setting the loss and setting difference flag in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c. (Sd55), proceed to the step of Sd56.

Then, in the step of Sd56, the value set in the B register is set in the predetermined area of the RAM 41c as the lottery result (Sd56). As a result, the winning number (B) (any of 1 to 50) when it is determined to win in the step of Sd52 or 0 in the case of loss is set as the lottery result. After that, the internal lottery process is completed and the process returns to the main process.

As described above, in the internal lottery process, after the initial setting process (Sd1 to Sd6), a predetermined end condition (determining that any of the lottery target combinations has been won or drawing lots for all the lottery target combinations) is set. Until it is established, a common process for determining whether or not one lottery target combination is to be won is repeatedly executed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations as a loop process (Sd7 to Sd54).

Further, in the internal lottery process, loop processing (Sd7 to Sd54) is performed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations in a predetermined order (in descending order of the combination number).

In the initial setting process (Sd1 to Sd6), an internal lottery assigned an address specified from the game state value (normal (non-BB) is 0, BB is 1) assigned according to the game state (normally BB). Initial current position address (HL) based on the initial address specification data (normal time initial address specification data, BB middle initial address specification data) stored in the table area.
) Is set (Sd5). At this time, as the initial current position address (HL), one address before the address (address nc, address nd) in which the first data of the search data table according to the game state is specified based on the initial address designation data. Set the address of.

In this embodiment, as the initial address designation data, the address immediately before the address where the first data of the search data table according to the gaming state is specified from the address of the area where the initial address designation data is stored. The difference value up to is set, and by adding the difference value to the current position address (HL), the initial current position address (HL) in the loop processing is set at the top of the search data table according to the game state. The configuration is such that the address one address before the address (address nc, address nd) to which the data is specified is set, but as the initial address specification data, the game state is started from the address of the area where the initial address specification data is stored. Set the difference value up to the address where the first data of the search data table is specified, add the difference value to the current position address (HL), and 1
By subtracting, as the initial current position address (HL) in the loop processing, the address one address before the address (address nc, address nd) at which the first data of the search data table according to the game state is specified is used. It may be configured to be set.

Further, in the initial setting process (Sd1 to Sd6), the random number value for the internal lottery is set in the IX register (Sd6).

In the loop processing (Sd7 to Sd54), the current position address (HL) is updated so as to advance by one address (Sd8), and the corresponding combination number is used by using the search data specified from the updated current position address (HL). It is determined whether or not the lottery target combination is won (Sd52).

Further, in the loop processing (Sd7 to Sd54), if the lottery target combination is a re-game combination and the re-game combination is not a lottery target in the currently controlled gaming state, the winning number set in the B register is set. Is updated to the role number of the lottery target role that is the next lottery target (Sd2).
1 to Sd23), the lottery target is updated to the next lottery target combination in the currently controlled gaming state.

Further, in the slot machine 1, when a special role accompanied by a transition to a special state (BB) is won in the internal lottery and the special role is not won, the winning of the special role is carried over to the next game or later. Is possible, and in the loop processing (Sd7 to Sd54), the lottery target role is a special role (
If the role includes only BB) and does not include the general role, and is a non-internal middle role that is not subject to the internal lottery when the game state is inside (Sd10 to Sd15), the winning of the special role is carried over. It is determined whether or not it is (Sd12), and if the winning of the special role is carried over,
Based on the jumping flag data (FD) of the non-internal middle-ranking role and the jumping destination address specification data preset in the search data table, the lottery target is the next lottery target other than the non-internal middle-ranking role. It is updated to a combination (for example, a combination subject to lottery with a combination number 33) (Sd13 to Sd15).

Further, the slot machine 1 has a plurality of gaming states (R) in which at least one of whether or not the re-gaming combination is the target of the lottery or the probability that the re-gaming combination is won is different in the internal lottery.
It is possible to control to T0 to 4), and in the loop processing (Sd7 to Sd54), it is determined whether the value specified from the updated current position address (HL) is the variable role jump flag data (FF). Judgment (Sd16), in the case of the variable combination jumping flag data (FF), a process peculiar to the case where the winning combination is to be replayed from the current lottery target combination (determining the current RT value, the relevant Processing to update the current position address (HL) to the address corresponding to the RT value) (Sd17 to S)
If the data is not the variable combination jumping flag data (FF), the process is common to all the lottery target combinations (processing such as determining whether or not the winning number reset flag (FE) is used). (S
(Processing after d21).

Further, the slot machine 1 can be controlled to a plurality of gaming states (RT0 to 4), and a value (0 to 4) indicating the gaming state is assigned to each gaming state, and loop processing (S).
In d7 to Sd54), when the value specified from the updated current position address (HL) is variable and the role jumping flag data (FF), it is peculiar to the case where the role is replayed from the current lottery target. The currently controlled gaming state (RT0-4) as the process (Sd17-Sd26)

[Action effect 6]
Most of the slot machines 1 which are conventional gaming machines have a configuration in which a lottery is performed in relation to a game, such as whether or not to allow the occurrence of a prize. In a gaming machine having such a configuration, a lottery related to a game is always performed at least for each gaming unit, and suitable processing is required.

On the other hand, the slot machine 1 which is the gaming machine of the present embodiment may perform an internal lottery process of determining one of the lottery target combinations (including loss) as a winner from a plurality of lottery target combinations. It is possible, and in the internal lottery process, after the initial setting process, until a predetermined end condition (determining that one of the lottery target combinations has been won or drawing a lottery for all the lottery target combinations) is satisfied. It is a configuration in which a common process of determining whether or not one lottery target combination is won is repeatedly executed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations as a loop process.

According to this configuration, when one of the lottery target combinations is determined as a winning combination from a plurality of lottery target combinations, a common process for determining whether or not to determine one lottery target combination is a loop process, and a predetermined end is performed. Since it is sufficient to execute the program repeatedly until the condition is satisfied, the program capacity can be reduced.

In this embodiment, the slot machine 1 is applied as a gaming machine, but as a gaming machine, a gaming ball is launched into a gaming area to play a game, and for example, whether or not the gaming ball is a big hit due to a prize or the like. A pachinko gaming machine having a configuration for determining one of the determination targets from a plurality of determination targets, such as a configuration for determining the above, may be applied.

Further, in this embodiment, as a condition for ending the loop processing, the loop processing for all the lottery target combinations that are the targets of the lottery in the internal lottery is completed, or the lottery target combination of the predetermined combination number is won in the loop processing. Although it is applied that it is determined to be, a configuration in which only one of them is applied as an end condition may be used.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can be controlled to a plurality of gaming states (usually BB) in which at least a part of the lottery target combination is different, and the gaming states correspond to each gaming state (usually BB). A game state value (0 in the normal state, 1 in the BB) that can specify the type of the game is assigned, and the game corresponding to the game state value is assigned to the area to which the address specified from the game state value is assigned in the internal lottery table. Numerical values (normal time initial address designation data, BB middle initial address designation data) are stored according to the state, and in the internal lottery process, a predetermined end condition (one of the lottery target combinations is won) after the initial setting process. The loop processing is repeatedly executed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations until the determination is made or the lottery is performed for all the lottery target combinations. In the initial setting process, the address specified from the game state value. The initial current position address (HL) is set based on the numerical values (normal time initial address specification data, BB medium initial address specification data) stored in the allocated area, and in the loop processing, the current position address (HL) is set. Is updated so as to advance by one address, and it is determined whether or not the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number is won by using the search data specified from the updated address.

According to this configuration, in the initial setting process, the initial setting is based on the numerical value (normal time initial address specification data, BB medium initial address specification data) stored in the area to which the address specified from the game state value is assigned. By setting the current position address (HL), it is possible to control a plurality of gaming states in which the lottery targets are different.

In this embodiment, in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the current position address (HL) is updated by one address, and the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number is used by using the search data specified from the updated address. It is configured to determine whether or not to win, but in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the value of the predetermined combination number of the lottery target combination that determines whether or not to win, and the remaining number of repetitions of the loop process. The value or the like may be updated by a certain value, and it may be determined whether or not the lottery target combination of the corresponding predetermined combination number is won by using the search data specified from the updated value.

Further, in this embodiment, the current position address (HL) is updated by one address in the loop processing, but a configuration in which a plurality of addresses are updated may also be used.

Further, in this embodiment, in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the search data is specified based on the updated current position address (HL), and the corresponding lottery is performed based on the determination value data specified using the search data. Although it is a configuration for determining whether or not the target combination has been won, the internal lottery process is not limited to the configuration for specifying the search data from the updated current position address (HL), and at least a predetermined lottery target combination has been won. The data used for the determination may be specified from the updated current position address (HL), and for example, the determination value data, the winning number, or the like may be applied as the data used for the determination. As a configuration in which the judgment value data is applied as the data used for the judgment, for example, the judgment value data used for the judgment is directly specified from the updated current position address (HL), and the corresponding lottery target combination is based on the judgment value data. The winning number may be determined as to whether or not the player has won, or the winning number may be applied as the data used for the determination. Is specified, and it is determined whether or not the winning number is the target of the lottery in the currently controlled gaming state, and if the winning number is not the target of the lottery in the current gaming state, the winning combination corresponding to the winning number is won. It may be configured to determine that it does not exist.

In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, in the initial setting process of the internal lottery process, the numerical value (normal time initial address specification data, BB middle initial address specification data) stored in the area to which the address specified from the game state value is assigned is ) Is configured to set the initial current position address (HL), and as the initial current position address (HL), the address (address nc, where the first data of the search data table according to the gaming state is specified is specified. Address nd) 1
It is a configuration to set the address before the address.

According to this configuration, in the initial setting process, the address one address before the address where the first data of the search data table corresponding to the first lottery target combination is specified is set as the initial current position address (HL). Therefore, the current position address (HL) is used in both the first loop process and the second and subsequent loop processes after the initial setting process.
It is possible to specify the search data etc. used for judgment in the loop processing from the address value updated by one address, and the loop processing performed first after the initial setting processing and
It is not necessary to change the processing contents in the loop processing performed from the second time onward.

In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, in the internal lottery process, loop processing is performed for each of a plurality of lottery target combinations in a predetermined order (in descending order of the winning combination number), and in the loop processing, the lottery target combination is replayed. If it is a combination and the re-game combination is not a lottery target in the currently controlled gaming state, the winning number set in the B register is updated to the combination number of the next lottery target combination to be the lottery target. The lottery target is updated to the next lottery target combination in the currently controlled gaming state.

According to this configuration, in the loop process, when the predetermined lottery target combination is not the target of the lottery, the predetermined lottery target combination is updated to the next predetermined lottery target combination, so that a plurality of lottery target combinations are selected for the lottery. If it is not the target, the loop processing for the lottery target combination to be the target of the lottery can be advanced to the next, so that unnecessary processing can be eliminated.

In the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, when a special role accompanied by a transition to a special state (BB) is won in the internal lottery and the special role is not won, the special role is won in the next game or later. It is possible to carry over, and in the loop processing of the internal lottery process, the lottery target role is a special role (B).
Whether or not the winning of the special role is carried over when the role includes only B) and does not include the general role and is a non-internal middle role that is not subject to the internal lottery when the game state is inside. If the winning of the special role is carried over, a lottery will be drawn based on the jumping flag data (FD) of the non-internal middle role and the jumping destination address specification data preset in the search data table. The target is updated to a lottery target combination (for example, a lottery target combination with a combination number 35) that is the next target of the lottery other than the non-internal middle role.

According to this configuration, in the loop processing, when the lottery target is a non-internal middle-ranking role, it is determined whether or not the winning of the special role is carried over, and when the winning of the special role is carried over, it is determined. Since the lottery target is updated to the lottery target role that is the next target of the lottery other than the non-internal middle role, when the game state is inside, the non-internal middle role is not won by any lottery target. If the replacement process is not required and multiple non-internal middle-ranking players are not the target of the lottery, the loop processing for the next lottery target role other than the non-internal middle-ranking role can be advanced, which is useless. Processing can be eliminated.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment has a plurality of gaming states (RT0) in which at least one of whether or not the re-gaming combination is the target of the lottery or the probability that the re-gaming combination is won is different in the internal lottery. It is possible to control to 4), and in the loop processing in the internal lottery process, if the lottery target is the re-gaming combination and the re-gaming combination is not the target of the lottery, the lottery target is set to the current gaming state ( In RT0-4), the winning combination is updated to the next lottery target combination.

According to this configuration, the value specified from the current position address (HL) is variable role jumping flag data (FF), and when the target of the lottery from the current lottery target combination becomes the replay combination, the present The current position address (HL) can be updated to the address where the search data corresponding to the re-game combination that is the target of the lottery is specified first in the game state of.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment includes a determination value data table for storing determination value data used when determining whether or not to win a lottery target combination of a predetermined combination number, and the determination value data table is 1. It includes a 1-byte 1-byte area in which judgment value data (1-byte data) within bytes is stored and a 2-byte 2-byte area in which judgment value data (2-byte data) exceeding 1 byte is stored. In the area allocated to the address updated in the loop processing, the area in which the determination value data of each lottery target combination to be drawn in the loop processing is stored from the start address (reference address m) of the determination value data table. Search data that can specify the difference value up to the address is stored, and in loop processing, search data is acquired from the updated address area, and the acquired search data is a value indicating the 1-byte area of the judgment value data table. Different type coefficients E are set according to whether there is a value or a value indicating a 2-byte area of the judgment value data table, and 1-byte judgment value data is acquired according to the set type coefficient E and the E register is used. Judgment used when determining whether or not the lottery target is won by controlling to perform either the process of setting to or the process of acquiring 2-byte judgment value data and setting it in the DE register. The configuration is such that the processing when acquiring the value data from the judgment value data table is different.

According to this configuration, the 1-byte area in the judgment value data table corresponds to the search data indicating the difference value from the start address of the judgment value data table to the address of the area in which the judgment value data of the corresponding lottery target combination is stored. Whether to use the judgment value data stored in the 2-byte area or the judgment value data stored in the 2-byte area can be specified, different processing can be performed, and the type coefficient E is set from the acquired search data. By doing so, even when specifying whether to use the judgment value data stored in the 1-byte area or the judgment value data stored in the 2-byte area in the subsequent processing, the type coefficient E is referred to. There is no need to acquire search data and make a judgment each time.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment can set any of a plurality of set values 1 to 6, and is used when determining whether or not to win the lottery target combination of the predetermined combination number. The judgment value data table is provided with a judgment value data table for storing the judgment value data to be obtained, and the judgment value data table has a setting difference area in which the judgment value data of the combination is stored in which the judgment value data differs depending on the setting value. The configuration includes a setting difference-less area in which the determination value data of the setting difference-less combination in which the determination value data is common regardless of the set value is stored, and the determination value data is used to be selected from a plurality of lottery target combinations. It is possible to perform an internal lottery process that determines the winning combination (including loss) as a winner, and in the internal lottery process, a predetermined end condition (one of the lottery targets) is performed after the initial setting process. The loop processing is repeatedly executed until it is determined that the winning combination is won or the lottery is performed for all the lottery target winning combinations. In the loop processing, the search is performed from the updated current position address (HL) area. Data is acquired, and the type coefficient E of different values is set in the E register according to whether the acquired search data is a value indicating an area with a setting difference or a value indicating an area without a setting difference, and the type is concerned. The process for acquiring the determination value data from the determination value data table is different depending on the coefficient E.

According to this configuration, there is a setting difference depending on the search data indicating the difference value from the start address of the determination value data table to the address of the area where the determination value data of the lottery target combination of the predetermined combination number to be the lottery is stored. It is possible to specify whether to use the judgment value data stored in the area or the judgment value data stored in the area with no setting difference, and to perform different processing, and the type coefficient based on the acquired search data. By setting E, not only is it specified whether 1-byte judgment value data is used or 2-byte judgment value data is used in the subsequent processing, but also the judgment stored in the setting difference area is stored. Even when specifying whether to use the value data or the judgment value data stored in the setting difference-free area, it is not necessary to acquire and judge the search data each time by referring to only one type coefficient. The process can be simplified.

It is a configuration in which a value corresponding to whether it is a none area is set in the second bit.

According to this configuration, by referring to the value of the first bit of the type coefficient E, whether to use the judgment value data stored in the 1-byte area or to use the judgment value data stored in the 2-byte area. By referring to the value of the second bit, it is possible to specify whether to use the judgment data stored in the area with setting difference or the judgment data stored in the area without setting difference. can do.

The slot machine 1 of this embodiment acquires search data from the updated current position address (HL) area in the loop process of the internal lottery process, and the search data is a value indicating a 1-byte area of the determination value data table. A type coefficient E of a different value depending on whether there is a value, a value indicating a 2-byte area of the judgment value data table, a value indicating an area with a setting difference, or a value indicating an area without a setting difference. The configuration is set in the E register, and the type coefficient E is set in the E register common to the register in which the determination value data acquired from the determination value data table is set when determining whether or not the lottery target combination is to be won. It is a configuration to set.

According to this configuration, it is not necessary to hold the type coefficient E after the judgment value data is acquired by the type coefficient E, and the register in which the type coefficient E is set is shared with the E register in which the judgment value data is set. Therefore, it is not necessary to set a separate register.

In the internal lottery process, the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment has a configuration in which a winning number (B) indicating the winning combination number of the first lottery target combination in the loop processing is set and a random number value is acquired in the initial setting process. , In the loop processing, a judgment value indicating a judgment value indicating that the lottery target winning combination of the winning combination number indicated by the winning number (B) is won based on the search data specified from the updated current position address (HL). Data is acquired, the acquired judgment value data and the random number value acquired in the initial setting process are added, and if the addition result exceeds the range of the random number value, the winning number (B) indicates the winning combination number. The target combination is determined as a winner, and if the addition result does not exceed the range of the random number value, the winning number (B) is updated, and it is determined whether or not the updated winning number (B) is the end value (0). , If the updated winning number (B) is not the end value, it moves to the beginning of the loop processing and
If the updated winning number (B) is the end value, none of the lottery target winning combinations will be won (
It is a configuration that determines the loss).

According to this configuration, by setting the winning number (B) indicating the winning combination number to be drawn, not only the winning number (B) can be used to specify the winning combination number to be drawn in the current loop process. , It is also possible to determine the end condition of the loop processing by updating the winning number (B).

Although the second embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the second embodiment and is included in the present invention even if there are changes or additions within the range not deviating from the gist of the present invention. Needless to say. Further, the same or similar configuration as that of Example 1 has the same effect as that described in Example 1. Further, the modified example exemplified for Example 1 can also be applied to Example 2.
