Description

The present invention includes a variable display section capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each identifiable, and after variably displaying the variable display section, stops variably displaying the variable display section to derive a display result. , relates to a slot machine in which a prize can be awarded according to the display result.

A slot machine is generally provided with a variable display device having a plurality (usually three) of reels on which a plurality of types of patterns are drawn as identification information on the outer periphery thereof, and each reel has a start switch when a player presses a start switch. When operated, rotation is started, and when the player operates a stop button provided corresponding to each reel, rotation is stopped within a predetermined maximum delay time range from the operation timing. . Winning occurs according to the display result derived when all the reels stop rotating.

As the types of wins, there are types such as small wins, special wins, and replay wins. Here, in winning a small winning combination, the player can obtain the benefit that a predetermined number of medals are paid out for each type of small winning combination. Winning a special role allows the player to obtain the benefit of being shifted to a game state that is advantageous to the player, such as a regular bonus or a big bonus, from the next game. Winning the replaying combination provides the advantage that the next game can be played without consuming new medals for setting the bet amount.

As such a slot machine, when the determination result of the pre-determining means is both the first determination result and the second determination result, it is possible to determine which determination result is the derived display result. known (for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2014-151127 [for example, FIGS. 19 to 22]

In the slot machine of Patent Literature 1, there are two operation modes of the stop operation in which a display result in which the determination result of the pre-determining means is identifiable is derived, and the stop operation in which a display result in which the determination result of the pre-determining means is unidentifiable is derived. It is conceivable to provide a mode of operation. However, in order to improve the enjoyment of the game even with such a configuration, it is necessary to consider the mode of presentation when the stop operation is performed in the mode of operation in which a display result in which the decision result of the pre-determining means is unidentifiable is derived. There was room for improvement.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a slot machine capable of enhancing the enjoyment of games.

In order to solve the above problems, the slot machine of the present invention includes:
comprising a plurality of variable display units each capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identifiable identification information, deriving a display result by variably displaying the variable display units and then stopping variably displaying the variable display units; In a slot machine in which a prize can be awarded according to a display result combination that is a combination of display results of a plurality of variable display units ,
Production execution means (for example, sub-control unit 91) capable of executing production,
Predetermining means for determining a display result combination that allows derivation (for example, a portion that performs the processing of Sd2 in FIG. 3);
a plurality of derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated by the player to derive the display result combination ;
Derivation control means (for example, the part that performs the processing of Sd3 in FIG. 3) that performs control to derive the display result combination ;
A benefit granting means (eg, main control unit 41) that grants benefits (eg, bonus , AT) ,
A privilege may be given when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the first determination result (for example, the part where a bonus or AT is given when the cherry is won),
A privilege may be given when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the second determination result (for example, the part where a bonus or AT is given when winning a watermelon),
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the first determination result and when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the second determination result, the degree of advantage regarding the privilege is different (for example, cherry and bonus are simultaneously won The probability of winning is higher than the probability of winning watermelon and bonus at the same time, and the probability of winning the AT lottery is higher when winning cherry than when winning watermelon),
The derivation control means is
In a game in which the decision result of the pre-determination means is the first decision result, the plurality of derivation operation means are in the first operation mode (for example, the operation mode in which the left first stop operation is performed) When operated, a predetermined display result combination (for example, a display result in which a cherry wins) is derived, and the plurality of lead-out operation means are in the second operation mode (for example, the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are in the drawing range). If the operation is performed in an operation mode in which the left first stop operation is performed at a timing other than the above, or an operation mode in which the middle first stop operation or the right first stop operation is performed), a special display result combination (for example, a display in which the lower bell wins result),
In a game in which the determination result of the pre-determining means is the second determination result, when the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in the first operation mode, a specific display result combination (for example, a display result in which a watermelon wins) is derived, and when the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in the second operation mode, a special display result combination (for example, a display result in which the lower bell wins) is derived,
The production executing means is
In a game in which the determination result of the pre-determining means is the first determination result or the second determination result, a predetermined suggestive effect suggesting the degree of expectation of awarding of the privilege can be executed regardless of the operation mode of the plurality of derivation operation means. Yes (for example, the portion shown in FIG. 9),
A specific suggestion suggesting the degree of expectation of giving a privilege when the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in a first operation mode in a game in which the decision result of the pre-determination means is the first decision result or the second decision result. When the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in the second operation mode without executing the production, it is possible to execute the specific suggestion production (for example, the parts shown in FIGS. 9 to 11),
A situation in which the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in a second operation mode in a game in which the decision result of the pre-determination means is the first decision result , and the decision result of the pre-determination means is the second decision result. A game in which the pre-determining means has a first determination result or a second determination result in either the situation in which the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in the second operation mode in the game where the During the period from the next game until it is notified whether or not the privilege will be granted, the production related to the awarding of the privilege is executed in a common manner (for example, the parts shown in FIGS. 9 to 12) ,
The special display result combination is a display result combination in which a prize is generated in response to being derived, and is a display result combination in which the special identification information is aligned on a predetermined line across the plurality of variable display parts,
The second operation mode is an operation mode in which the operation order of the plurality of lead-out operation means is different from that in the first operation mode .
According to this configuration, when the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in the first operation mode, the determination result of the pre-determining means can be determined, while when the plurality of derivation operation means are operated in the second operation mode, It is possible to recognize the degree of expectation of awarding of the privilege although the determination result of the pre-determining means cannot be determined. As a result, the player can play the game with two patterns of game methods, so that the interest in the game can be improved. In addition, when the plurality of lead-out operation means are operated in the first operation mode and when the plurality of lead-out operation means are operated in the second operation mode, the performance scenario is the same, which may confuse the player. can be prevented.

Inside the housing 1a of the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. ) are horizontally arranged side by side, and as shown in FIG. 1, three consecutive patterns among the patterns arranged on the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R can be seen through the see-through window 3 provided on the front door 1b. are arranged as

The outer peripheries of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are provided with a plurality of mutually identifiable symbols such as "7," "BAR," "watermelon," "cherry," "bell," "replay," and "plum." 21 of each are drawn in a predetermined order. The patterns drawn on the outer peripheries of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are displayed in upper, middle, and lower three stages in the see-through window 3 provided approximately in the center of the front door 1b.

Each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is rotated by a corresponding reel motor, and the symbols of each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are displayed on the see-through window 3 while continuously changing. , the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is stopped, so that three consecutive symbols are derived and displayed on the see-through window 3 as a display result.

A display area 51a of a liquid crystal display 51 (see FIG. 1) for displaying an image is arranged on the front side (player side) of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R of the front door 1b. The liquid crystal display 51 has a liquid crystal panel that is transparent when no voltage is applied to the liquid crystal element. The reels 2L, 2C, and 2R can be visually recognized from the player side.

As shown in FIG. 1, the front door 1b has a medal insertion section 4 into which medals can be inserted, a medal payout opening 9 through which medals are paid out, and credits (the number of medals stored as game value owned by the player). MAXBET switch 6 operated when setting the maximum bet number among the prescribed number of bets determined according to the gaming state within the range using the MAXBET switch 6, medals stored as credits, and setting of the bet amount Settlement switch 10 operated when settling the medals used for the game (returning the medals used for setting credits and bet amount), start switch 7 operated when starting the game, reels 2L, 2C , and 2R, which are operated to stop the rotations of , and 2R, respectively, and a production switch 56 used for production are provided so as to be operable by the player.

In this embodiment, of the three reels 2L, 2C, and 2R that have started to rotate, the reel that stops first is referred to as the first stop reel, and the stop is referred to as the first stop. Moreover, the stop operation is called a first stop operation. Similarly, the reel that stops second is called the second stop reel, and that stop is called the second stop. Moreover, the stop operation is called a second stop operation. Also, the reel that stops third is called the third stop reel, and that stop is called the third stop or the final stop. Moreover, the stop operation is called a third stop operation. Further, the first stop operation to stop the reel 2L first is the left first stop operation, the first stop operation to stop the reel 2C first is the middle first stop operation, and the first stop operation to stop the reel 2R first. This is called a right first stop operation.

Also, as shown in FIG. 1, on the front door 1b, a credit display 11 for displaying the number of medals stored as credits, the number of medals paid out due to the occurrence of a prize, and the content of an error is displayed. A game auxiliary display 12 that displays an error code, information that can identify the stopping order of the reels by navigation notification, which will be described later, etc., a 1 BET LED 14 that lights up to notify that the number of bets is set to 1, and the number of bets is set to 2. 3 BET LED 16 lights to notify that the number of bets has been set to 3; insertion request LED 17 lights to notify that the medals can be inserted; A start valid LED 18 notifies by lighting that the start operation is valid, and notifies by lighting that it is in a wait state (a state in which the reels are waiting for the start of rotation because a certain period of time has not passed since the start of the previous game). A game display unit 13 is provided with a waiting LED 19 and a replaying LED 20 for notifying that the replay game is in progress by lighting.

Further, the front door 1b is provided with a BB lamp 60 on one side of the see-through window 3 to indicate that BB (Big Bonus) is being controlled.

When a game is played in the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, first, medals are inserted from the medal inserting section 4 or credits are used to set the bet amount. To use the credit, the MAXBET switch 6 should be operated. When the prescribed number of bets determined according to the gaming state is set, the winning line LN (see FIG. 1) becomes effective, and the operation of the start switch 7 becomes effective, that is, the game can be started. Become. When the maximum number of medals among the specified number corresponding to the game state is exceeded, the amount is added to the credits.

A winning line is a line set for determining whether a combination of symbols displayed in the see-through windows 3 of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is a combination of winning symbols. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, there is only a linear winning line LN set across the middle stage of the reel 2L, the middle stage of the reel 2C, and the middle stage of the reel 2R, that is, the symbols horizontally arranged in the middle stage. It is defined as a winning line. Although only one pay line is applied in this embodiment, a plurality of pay lines may be applied.

In addition, in the present embodiment, in addition to the winning line LN, linear invalid lines LM1 to LM4 are set in order to make it easier to recognize that the combination of symbols constituting the winning line LN has been completed. there is Winning of invalid lines LM1-LM4 is not determined by a combination of symbols aligned on these invalid lines LM1-LM4. A combination of symbols (for example, Bell-Bell-Bell) that will result in a prize when aligned on any of the winning lines LN from LM1 to LM4 is arranged, so that the winning line LN has a specific winning pattern. This makes it easy to recognize that the combination is complete. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the upper stage of the reel 2L, the upper stage of the reel 2C, and the upper stage of the reel 2R, that is, the invalid line LM1 set across the symbols arranged in the horizontal direction on the upper stage, and the reel 2L. The lower row, the lower row of the reel 2C, the lower row of the reel 2R, i.e., the invalid line LM2 set across the symbols horizontally aligned in the lower row, the upper row of the reel 2L, the middle row of the reel 2C, the lower row of the reel 2R, that is, downward to the right. There are four types of invalid lines: an invalid line LM3 set across the aligned symbols, a lower stage of the reel 2L, a middle stage of the reel 2C, and an upper stage of the reel 2R, that is, an invalid line LM4 set across the symbols aligned upward to the right. defined as LM.

When the start switch 7 is operated in a state where the game can be started, the reels 2L, 2C and 2R rotate and the symbols on the reels 2L, 2C and 2R continuously change. When one of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is operated in this state, the rotation of the corresponding reels 2L, 2C, 2R is stopped, and the display result is derived and displayed on the see-through window 3.

One game ends when all the reels 2L, 2C and 2R are stopped, and a predetermined combination of symbols (hereinafter also referred to as a winning combination) on the winning line is displayed on each of the reels 2L, 2C and 2R. When the game stops as , a winning occurs, and a predetermined number of medals are given to the player according to the winning and added to the credits. Also, when the number of credits reaches the upper limit (50 in this embodiment), medals are paid out directly from the medal payout port 9 (see FIG. 1). Further, when a combination of symbols accompanied by a transition of the game state is stopped as a result of the display of each of the reels 2L, 2C and 2R on the winning line, the game state is shifted to a game state corresponding 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. In addition, one unit of control (game control) for executing the game is started when all the control associated with the end of the previous game is completed, and when all the control associated with the end of the game is completed finish.

Further, in the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, after the game is started and the reels 2L, 2C, 2R rotate and the symbols start to change, any one of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is operated. When pressed, the reels corresponding to the stop switches 8L, 8C and 8R stop rotating and the symbols are stopped and displayed.

Hereinafter, the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R may be simply referred to as reels when there is no particular need to distinguish them. Also, the reel 2L may be referred to as a left reel, the reel 2C as a middle reel, and the reel 2R as a right reel. Further, an operation of stopping the reels 2L, 2C, 2R by operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R may be called a stop operation.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment has an activated pay line LN (hereinafter, the activated pay line LN is simply called a pay line LN) when all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are stopped. A prize is awarded when a combination of symbols called ni-yaku is completed. The combination may be a combination of the same symbols, or may be a combination including different symbols. The types of wins are determined according to the gaming state, but they can be broadly divided into small wins that involve the payout of medals and repeat wins that allow the next game to be started without the need to set the bet amount. There are a game combination and a special combination involving transition to a game state advantageous to the player. In the following, the small combination and the replay combination are collectively referred to as a general combination. In order to generate a prize for each combination determined according to the game state, it is necessary to win an internal lottery, which will be described later, and to set the winning flag for the combination in the RAM.

Of the winning flags for each of these roles, the winning flags for minor and replaying roles are valid only in the game in which the flag is set, and are invalid in the next game, but the winning flag for special roles is , is valid until a combination of winning combinations allowed by the flag is completed, and becomes invalid in a game in which the combination of winning winning combinations is complete. That is, once the winning flag of the special role is won, even if the combination of winning roles allowed by the flag cannot be arranged, the winning flag is not invalidated and is carried over to the next game. becomes.

In this embodiment, a big bonus (hereinafter abbreviated as BB) and a regular bonus (hereinafter abbreviated as RB) are set as special roles among prize-winning roles.

BB wins when a display result in which "7" is aligned on the pay line LN is derived. RB wins when a display result in which "BAR" is aligned on the pay line LN is derived. As will be described later in detail, BB and RB are benefits that can be given when cherry or watermelon is won by an internal lottery.

When the BB is won, the game is shifted to the BB which is controlled every game by a regular bonus during the BB (hereinafter referred to as BBRB). The BB caused by the winning of the BB ends on the condition that 316 or more medals are paid out. The RB generated due to the winning of the RB ends on the condition that any combination wins 6 times or 12 games are completed. In addition, hereinafter, the big bonus and the regular bonus may be collectively referred to as a bonus. In addition, the period from when these are elected to when they win a prize may be called an internal period.

As small roles, cherry, watermelon, middle bell, right-sloping bell, lower bell, and plum are set.

A cherry wins when a display result is derived in which a combination of symbols stopping "Cherry" is aligned on the pay line LN at the bottom of the reel 2L (at the intersection of the invalid lines LM2 and LM3). It should be noted that even if any symbol is stopped on the reel 2C or the reel 2R, if the "cherry" is stopped on the lower stage of the reel 2L, the cherry wins. A watermelon wins when a display result is derived in which a combination of symbols in which "watermelon" is aligned on the invalid line LM3 is aligned on the winning line LN. The middle bell wins when a display result in which "bells" are aligned on the pay line LN is derived. A right-downward bell wins a prize when a display result is derived in which a combination of symbols in which "bells" are aligned on the invalid line LM3 is aligned on the winning line LN. As for the lower tier bell, a prize is won when a display result is derived in which a combination of symbols in which "bells" are aligned on the invalid line LM2 is aligned on the winning line LN. A plum wins when a display result in which "plums" are aligned on the pay line LN is derived.

When Cherry wins, three medals are paid out. When the watermelon wins, three medals are paid out. When the middle bell wins, nine medals are paid out. When the falling bell wins, nine medals are paid out. When the lower bell wins, three medals are paid out. When Plum wins, 6 medals are paid out.

In addition, as the replay role, a middle stage replay and a downward-sloping replay are set.

In the middle replay, a prize is awarded when a display result in which "replay" is aligned on the prize line LN is derived. In the downward-sloping replay, a prize is awarded when a display result is derived in which a combination of symbols in which "Replay" is aligned on the invalid line LM3 is aligned on the winning line LN.

As shown in FIG. 2, inside the slot machine 1 is a game control board 40 for controlling the progress of a game and for outputting various commands according to the progress of the game, and for controlling a predetermined effect according to the commands. A performance control board 90 and the like are provided. The game control board 40 includes a main control section 41 that performs processing relating to the progress of the game and that controls components mounted on or connected to the game control board 40 . The production control board 90 receives a command transmitted from the game control board 40 and performs a process of producing a production. The main control unit 41 is composed of a one-chip microcomputer, and includes a main CPU 41a, a ROM 41b, and a RAM 41c. The main control unit 41 executes the control program stored in the ROM 41b to perform processing related to the progress of the game, and directly or indirectly controls each unit of the control circuit mounted on the game control board 40. The sub-controller 91 is composed of a one-chip microcomputer and includes a sub-CPU 91a, ROM 91b, and RAM 91c. The sub control unit 91 executes the control program stored in the ROM 91b to perform processing related to the progress of the game, and directly or indirectly controls each unit of the control circuit mounted on the game control board 90.

The slot machine 1 of the present embodiment changes the payout rate of medals according to the set value. More specifically, the payout rate of medals is changed by using a winning probability corresponding to a set value in an internal lottery, which will be described later. The set value consists of 6 stages from 1 to 6, with 6 being the highest payout rate, and 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 decreasing the value in order, lowering the payout rate. That is, when 6 is set as the set value, the degree of advantage for the player is the highest, and as the value decreases in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, the degree of advantage decreases stepwise. Note that the set values are not limited to six steps.

[About game processing]
FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the control contents of the game process executed by the main control section 41. As shown in FIG.

In the game processing, BET processing (Sd1), internal lottery processing (Sd2), reel rotation processing (Sd3), winning determination processing (Sd4), payout processing (Sd5), and game end processing (Sd6) are sequentially executed. When the termination process is completed, the BET process is performed again.

In the BET process in the step Sd1, a process of waiting in a state in which the number of bets can be set is set, a specified number of bets corresponding to the gaming state is set, and the game is started when the start switch 7 is operated. .

In the internal lottery process in step Sd2, it is determined whether or not to allow the winning of each combination based on the internal lottery random number latched at the same time as the game is started by detecting the start switch 7 in step Sd1. process. In this internal lottery process, a winning flag is set in the RAM 41c based on each lottery result.

The internal lottery decides whether or not to allow the winning of each combination described above before the display results of all the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are derived and displayed (actually, when the start switch 7 is detected). It is something to do. In the internal lottery, first, when the start switch 7 is detected, a random number (integer from 0 to 65535) for internal lottery is obtained. Specifically, the value of the random value storage work assigned to the RAM 41c is set to the lottery work assigned to the RAM 41c. Then, for each combination determined according to the game state and whether or not the special combination is carried over, the numerical data stored in the lottery work, the value of the game state flag for specifying the game state, and the RT, which will be described later, are specified. It is performed according to the number of determination values for each combination determined according to the value of the RT flag, the number of bets, and the set value.

In the internal lottery, the internal lottery target hand, the current game state flag value, the RT flag value, and the number of determination values determined in correspondence with the set value are set as random numbers for the internal lottery (stored in the lottery work). It is determined that the combination has been won when the result of the addition overflows. Therefore, the combination is won with a probability (number of judgment values/65536) corresponding to the number of judgment values.

Then, when any winning combination is determined, a winning flag corresponding to the determined winning combination is set in the internal winning flag storage work assigned to the RAM 41c. The internal winning flag storage work is composed of a 2-byte storage area, of which the upper byte is assigned as a special role storing work in which the winning flag of the special role is set, and the lower byte is the winning of the general role. It is assigned as a general role storage work that flags are set. Specifically, when a special combination is won, a winning flag for the special combination indicating that the special combination has been won is set in the special combination storing work, and the winning flag set in the general combination storing work is cleared. In addition, when a general role is won, a winning flag of a general role indicating that the general role has been won is set in the general role storing work. If none of the wins or combination of wins is won, only the general win stored work is cleared.

Here, the lottery target combination will be described. In this embodiment, as the lottery target combination, one winning combination is read out and won alone, and a plurality of winning combinations are read out at the same time and overlapped. You may be elected. In the following, by notating "+" between the winning combinations, it indicates that they are simultaneously read out as the lottery target combination in the internal lottery.

In this embodiment, BB, RB, watermelon, watermelon + BB, watermelon + RB, cherry, cherry + BB, cherry + RB, push order bell, normal bell, plum, push order replay, normal replay are the lottery target roles for the internal lottery. is set.

In the normal state, all the roles are the lottery target roles, and in the bonus, the roles other than BB, RB, watermelon+BB, watermelon+RB, cherry+BB, and cherry+RB are the lottery target roles.

[Expectation for bonus simultaneous winning]
Next, with reference to FIG. 4, the degree of expectation for simultaneous winning of watermelon, cherry and bonus will be described.

As shown in FIG. 4, the percentage (expectation) of winning a bonus at the same time when a cherry is won is 10% at setting 1 and 10% at setting 6. As shown in FIG. On the other hand, the rate (expectation) that a bonus is won at the same time when a watermelon is won is 20% at setting 1 and 50% at setting 6. Thus, the probability of simultaneously winning a watermelon and a bonus is higher than the probability of simultaneously winning a cherry and a bonus. Therefore, when the player wins the cherry prize, the expectation of the bonus is higher. In addition, 50% of the simultaneous winning bonuses are BB and 50% are RB.

In this embodiment, the total probability of winning cherry and the winning probability of cherry+bonus is 1/100. The winning probability of Cherry+Bonus is 1/1000 for all set values. The winning probability of cherry is 9/1000 in common for each set value. Further, the total probability of winning watermelon and winning probability of watermelon+bonus is 1/100. The winning probability of watermelon+bonus is 1/500 (2/1000) at setting 1 and 1/200 (5/1000) at setting 6. The winning probability of watermelon is 1/125 (8/1000) at setting 1 and 1/200 (5/1000) at setting 6.

Then, when the lottery target role BB is won, the prize winning role BB can be won. Also, if the RB of the lottery target role is won, the RB of the prize-winning role can be won.

Also, if the lottery target role of watermelon is won, the prize-winning role of watermelon or the lower bell can be won. Also, if the lottery target role of watermelon+BB is won, the prize-winning role of watermelon or the lower bell and BB can be won. Also, if the lottery target role of watermelon+RB is won, the prize-winning role of watermelon or the lower bell and RB can be won.

In addition, if the lottery target cherry is won, the prize-winning target cherry or the lower bell can be won. Also, if the lottery target combination Cherry+BB is won, the prize-winning combination Cherry or the lower bell, BB can be won. Also, if the lottery target combination Cherry + RB is won, the prize-winning combination Cherry or lower bell, RB can be won.

Also, if the player wins the pressing order bell of the lottery target role, the right-downward bell of the prize-winning role can be won. If the normal bell of the lottery target role is won, the middle bell of the prize-winning role can be won.

In addition, if the lottery target role of Plum is won, the prize-winning role of Plum can be won.

In addition, if the player wins the push order replay of the lottery target role, the middle stage replay of the prize target role can be won. Also, if the player wins the normal replay of the lottery target role, it becomes possible to win the downward-sloping replay of the prize-winning role. Note that, hereinafter, watermelon and cherry, which are lottery target roles, may be collectively referred to as rare roles. A rare role is a role that has a lower probability of being selected than bells and plums.

In the reel rotation process in step Sd3, the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are rotated, and when the player's operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected, the corresponding reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are rotated. Execute the process to stop the rotation.

In the stop control of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R, when any winning combination is won, the main control unit 41 draws the symbols of the winning combination to the winning line LN as much as possible within the range of 4 frames. , A stop control table is created in which the number of sliding frames to be pulled in so that the symbols of the winning combination do not line up on the winning line LN, and the reels are controlled to stop, while none of the winning combinations are won. , a stop control table is created in which the number of sliding frames for which none of the hands are matched is determined, and the stop control of the reels is performed. As a result, when the stop operation is performed, if it is possible to align and stop the winning combination within the drawing range of a maximum of 4 frames on the pay line LN, control is performed to align and stop the combination, and the winning is achieved. A combination that has not been played is controlled to be stopped within a pull-in range of a maximum of 4 frames.

If a special role and a minor role are won at the same time, such as when a small role is won while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, the won small role will be placed on the pay line LN within 4 frames. The number of sliding frames is determined so as to draw in the maximum amount, and for the stop operation position where the winning small combination cannot be drawn into the winning line LN within a maximum of 4 frames, the winning special combination is drawn into the winning line LN 4 times. A stop control table is created in which the number of sliding frames is determined so that the player can be drawn in as much as possible within the frame range, and reel stop control is performed. As a result, when the stop operation is performed, if it is possible to align and stop the small wins that have been won in the winning line LN within the drawing range of a maximum of 4 frames, control is performed to align and stop them, and a prize is won. If the winning small winning combination can not be drawn into the line LN within the drawing range of maximum 4 frames, if it is possible to align and stop the winning special winning combination within the drawing range of maximum 4 frames on the winning line LN. Control is performed to align them and stop them, and control is performed to stop winning combinations that have not been won by dropping them within the pull-in range of 4 frames. That is, in such a case, the control for aligning the small combination with the winning line LN is given priority over the special combination, and only when the small combination cannot be pulled in, the special combination can be won. When the special combination and the small combination can be drawn in at the same time, only the small combination is drawn in, and the small combination does not line up on the pay line LN at the same time as the special combination.

In this embodiment, the special role and the minor role are won at the same time, such as when the special role is carried over from before the previous game and the minor role is won, or when the special role and the minor role are newly won at the same time. If it is, the winning small winning combination is prioritized over the winning special winning combination. are won at the same time, the control for aligning the special combination on the pay line LN is given priority over the minor combination, and only when the special combination cannot be drawn in, the control for aligning the small combination on the pay line LN may be performed. .

When the special role and the replay role are won at the same time, such as when the replay role is won while the special role is carried over from before the previous game, the winning line LN is displayed when the stop operation is performed. Then, control is performed to align and stop the symbols of the replay combination within the pull-in range of a maximum of 4 frames. In this case, the symbols forming the replay combination or the patterns forming the replay combination to be won at the same time are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less, that is, 4 frames or less for any of the reels 2L, 2C and 2R. , it can always be stopped at any position within the retraction range of 4 frames, so if the special role and the replay role are won at the same time, regardless of the operation timing of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R by the player. Therefore, all the replaying roles are guaranteed to win a prize. That is, in such a case, the control for aligning the replay combination with the winning line LN is given priority over the special combination, and the replay combination always wins. In addition, when the special combination and the replay combination can be pulled in at the same time, only the replay combination is pulled in, and the special combination does not line up on the pay line LN at the same time as the replay combination.

In this embodiment, BB, RB, watermelon, cherry, and plum do not win unless the stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing when the symbols forming each combination are within the pull-in range. On the other hand, the middle bell, right falling bell, lower bell, middle replay, and right falling replay win prizes regardless of the timing of the stop operation.

In this embodiment, when the left first stop operation is performed when the cherry is won, the timing of the stop operation is appropriate, that is, when the symbol "cherry" stops at the lower stage of the left reel 2L. When the left first stop operation is performed when the symbol to be stopped on the pay line LN is within the drawing range, a display result is derived in which the symbol "Cherry" is stopped on the lower stage of the left reel 2L. Stop control is performed as follows. On the other hand, when the cherry is won, the left first stop operation is performed, but the timing of the stop operation is not appropriate, and the symbol "cherry" does not stop at the lower stage of the left reel 2L. When the left first stop operation is performed when the symbol to stop on the pay line LN is not within the drawing range when the "cherry" stops at the lower stage of the left reel 2L, the symbol "bell" is moved to the left. It stops at the lower stage of the reel 2L. In this case, when a stop operation is performed on the remaining reels that are rotating, stop control is performed so that a display result in which the symbol "bell" is aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the bottom of each reel) is derived. is done. Further, when a cherry is won, if a stop operation is performed on the remaining reels in rotation after the middle first stop operation or the right first stop operation is performed, the symbols are displayed regardless of the timing of the stop operation. Stop control is performed so as to derive a display result in which the "bells" are aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel). When the symbol "cherry" stops at the lower stage of the left reel 2L, cherry wins regardless of the types of symbols stopped on the reels 2C and 2R, and three medals are paid out. Also, when the "bells" in the design line up on the linear invalid line LM2, the lower bell wins, and three bells are paid out.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the left first stop operation is performed when the cherry + BB or cherry + RB is won, as described above, if the timing of the stop operation is appropriate, the symbol "cherry " stops at the lower stage of the left reel 2L, and when the timing of the stop operation is not appropriate, the symbol "bell" stops at the lower stage of the left reel 2L and the rest of the reels are stopped. The stop control is performed so as to derive a display result in which the symbol "bell" is aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel). On the other hand, if a stop operation is performed on the remaining spinning reels after performing the middle first stop operation or the right first stop operation when cherry + BB or cherry + RB is won, the stop operation is performed. Regardless of the timing, stop control is performed so as to derive a display result in which the symbol "bell" is aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel). After that, when the internal lottery is lost or when the bell is won, BB and RB can be awarded.

Further, when the watermelon is won, if the stop operation is performed on the remaining spinning reels after the left first stop operation is performed, the timing of the stop operation is appropriate, that is, if the symbol "watermelon" '' are aligned on the linear invalid line LM3, the symbol "watermelon" will be stopped on the winning line LN. Stop control is performed so that a display result aligned on the invalid line LM3 of the shape is derived. On the other hand, when the watermelon was won, the left first stop operation was performed, and then the remaining spinning reels were stopped. is not aligned on the invalid line LM3, that is, when the symbol "watermelon" aligns on the linear invalid line LM3, the symbols stop on the winning line LN when the symbol is not within the drawing range. When the stop operation is performed, the stop control is performed so as to derive a display result in which the symbol "bell" is aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel). Further, when a watermelon is won, if a stopping operation is performed on the remaining reels in rotation after the middle first stop operation or the right first stop operation is performed, the symbols are displayed regardless of the timing of the stop operation. Stop control is performed so as to derive a display result in which the "bells" are aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel). Then, when the symbol "watermelon" aligns on the linear invalid line LM3, the watermelon wins and three medals are paid out. Also, when the "bells" in the design line up on the linear invalid line LM2, the lower bell wins, and three bells are paid out.

Further, when the watermelon + BB or the watermelon + RB is won, if the stop operation is performed on the remaining reels in rotation after the left first stop operation is performed, the timing of the stop operation is changed as described above. When appropriate, stop control is performed so that a display result in which the symbol "watermelon" is aligned on the linear invalid line LM3 is derived, and when the timing of the stop operation is not appropriate, the symbol "bell" is linear Stop control is performed so that a display result aligned on the invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel) is derived. On the other hand, when watermelon + BB or watermelon + RB is won, if stop operation is performed on the remaining spinning reel after middle first stop operation or right first stop operation is performed, timing of stop operation Regardless, the stop control is performed so as to derive a display result in which the symbol "bell" is aligned on the linear invalid line LM2 (that is, the lower stage of each reel). After that, when the internal lottery is lost or when the bell is won, BB and RB can be awarded.

In the present embodiment, the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are arranged on the reel 2L so that they can be drawn onto the pay line LN at the same time. Therefore, if the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and the remaining reels are stopped at the timing when the "watermelon" is within the retraction range, cherry and watermelon cherries and watermelons are not left out when winning prizes are allowed. In this embodiment, the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and the stop operation is performed for the remaining reels at the timing when the "watermelon" is within the retraction range. Let the operation mode be the 1st operation mode. Further, the second operation mode is the operation mode of performing the first left stop operation, the first middle stop operation, or the first right stop operation at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are not within the retraction range. and

Then, when the cherry or the watermelon is won, the display result that the lower bell wins is derived as a common display result when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode. Also, when the lower bell wins, the same three medals are paid out regardless of whether the stop operation is performed in any one of the second operation modes.

Note that the number of medals is not limited to this example and can be set as appropriate. For example, if the cherry wins, 3 coins, if the watermelon wins, 3 coins, if the lower bell wins, 0 coins, or if the cherry wins, 3 coins, and if the watermelon wins, 5 coins When the lower bell wins, it can be 1.

In the winning determination process in step Sd4, when it is determined in step Sd3 that all the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R have stopped rotating, winning is determined according to the display results drawn to the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R. A process for determining whether or not an error has occurred is executed.

In the payout process in step Sd5, when it is determined in step Sd4 that a prize has been won, processing such as addition of credits and payout of medals is performed based on the number of payouts corresponding to the win.

In the game end processing in step Sd6, processing for setting the game state in preparation for the next game is executed.

Also, in the game processing, a command is generated according to progress control of the game, set in the command buffer, and transmitted to the sub-controller 91 .

Although not shown, in the game processing, processing for controlling bonuses such as BB and RB and processing for controlling AT (assist time) are also executed.

[About AT]
In the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, the assist time (hereinafter referred to as assist time), which is a notification period during which the main control unit 41 can perform the navigation notification for notifying the player of the stopping order by the lighting mode of the game auxiliary display 12, is displayed. AT) can be controlled. An AT is controlled when it wins an AT lottery executed according to the result of an internal lottery. The AT lottery is executed in the processing of Sd2 in FIG. Specifically, when a cherry or a watermelon is won by an internal lottery, an AT lottery is executed, and when the AT lottery is won, an AT is given as a benefit. In the present embodiment, the probability of winning the AT lottery differs between when the cherry is won and when the watermelon is won, and the probability of winning the AT lottery when the watermelon is won is higher than when the cherry is won. . Therefore, when the watermelon is won, the expectation of giving AT is higher than when the cherry is won.

When the main control unit 41 is controlled to AT, by winning the navigation target role, the main control unit 41 executes navigation notification to notify the player of the stopping order that is advantageous to the player, and is advantageous to the player. By transmitting to the sub-controller 91 a pressing order command capable of specifying the stop order, a navigation effect using the liquid crystal display 51 or the like is executed. The navigation target roles are push order replay, push order bell, cherry, and watermelon. During the AT, the push order replay and the push order bell are executed with a probability of 100% for the navigation notification and the navigation effect.

In the navigation notification of the present embodiment, by changing the lighting mode of the game auxiliary display 12, the stop order advantageous to the player is identifiably notified. The form of the navigation notification is not limited to such a form, and may be any form as long as the player can distinguish between them according to the winning status. Further, the navigation notification is not limited to the game auxiliary display 12, that is, the display used for notification other than the navigation notification, and may be executed using a dedicated display. In the navigation effect of this embodiment, the stop order that is advantageous to the player notified by the navigation notification is notified by displaying the navigation image from the liquid crystal display 51 and outputting the navigation voice from the speakers 53 and 54 .

In this embodiment, for both the push order bell and the push order replay, the correct push order is one of the three options of left first stop, middle first stop, and right first stop. When the stop operation is performed in the correct order of pressing, the right-downward bell wins when the pressing order bell is won, and the middle stage replay wins when the pressing order replay wins. Then, for example, when notifying the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop, the stop order of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R such as "1--" (indicating that the left reel is the first stop) Display a stop order image showing In addition, as the navigation voice, for example, a voice indicating the stop order of the stop switch, such as "Left!" (Indicating that the left reel is the first stop) do.

As described above, in the navigation notification and the navigation effect, the stop order that is advantageous to the player is identifiably notified. Therefore, the player can move to an advantageous game state by intentionally winning the middle stage replay by performing the stop operation in the order of stopping according to the navigation effect, and can win the right-down bell. can be made

When a cherry or a watermelon is won, the pressing order of the right first stop is announced. When the cherry or watermelon is won, if the right first stop operation is performed, the lower bell is won, so when the right first stop operation is performed, the symbol "bell" stops at the lower stage of the reel 2R. On the other hand, if the pressing order bell is won and the right first stop operation is performed when the right first stop operation is performed, the right descending bell wins, so if the right first stop operation is performed, the lower stage of the reel 2R. The symbol "Bell" stops. Therefore, when the cherry or watermelon is won, the right first stop operation is performed according to the navigation notification and the navigation effect, and when the push order bell is won, the right first stop operation is performed according to the navigation notification and the navigation effect. At the time when the first stop operation is performed, it is impossible to distinguish which one has won. Therefore, by performing a stop operation on the remaining reels, when the lower bell wins, it can be identified that the cherry or the watermelon has been won. can be granted.

It should be noted that at least one of the push order bell and the push order replay may be a push order of six options. In this case, for example, when notifying the stop order of left, center, right, a stop such as "123" (indicates that the left reel is the first stop, the middle reel is the second stop, and the right reel is the third stop) A stop order image showing the stop order of the switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is displayed. Also, as a navigation voice, for example, a voice indicating the stop order of the stop switch, such as "Left, middle, right!" to output

In addition, when a cherry or a watermelon is won, a pattern of navigation notification and navigation effect may be set in which not only the right first stop operation but also the left first stop operation and the middle first stop operation are notified. In this case, when the left first stop operation is notified, the cherry or watermelon wins when the stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing.

[Timer interrupt processing (sub)]
Next, timer interrupt processing (sub) executed by the sub control unit 91 at intervals of 1.12 ms based on the count value of the internal clock will be described.

As shown in FIG. 5, in the timer interrupt process (sub), the sub control unit first saves the registers in use to the stack area (Sp1). Next, power failure determination processing is performed (Sp2). In the power failure determination process, it is determined whether or not a voltage drop signal has been input from the power failure detection circuit. If the voltage drop signal was also input in the previous power failure determination process, it is determined that there is a power failure, and a power failure flag indicating that effect is set.

After the power failure determination process in step Sp2, it is determined whether or not the power failure flag is set (Sp3), and if the power failure flag is set, the power failure process (sub) is performed. In the power-off processing (sub), the backup flag used in the startup processing (sub) is set after the backup data is created, and the checksum is calculated by calculating the exclusive OR of the backup data.

If the power failure flag is not set, command analysis processing is executed (Sp4). In the command analysis process, it is determined whether or not a command is stored in the command buffer, and if the command is stored in the command buffer, the command is acquired from the command buffer. Then, it executes processing according to the acquired command.

At Sp5, the sub-control unit 91 executes a performance-related process (Sp5). In the performance-related processing, the sub-control unit 91 performs processing for executing a performance when a cherry or a watermelon is won by an internal lottery. In the present embodiment, it is possible to execute a predetermined suggestive effect that suggests the degree of expectations for giving a bonus or AT when a cherry or a watermelon is won. A predetermined suggestion effect is executed when the start switch 7 is operated (see FIG. 9). In addition, when the cherry or watermelon is won, if the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode (in this example, the left first stop operation), a specific suggestion effect that suggests the degree of expectation of granting bonuses and AT as benefits is not executed, and the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode (in this example, the middle first stop operation or the right first stop operation), a specific suggestion effect is executed (see FIG. 11). Furthermore, when cherry or watermelon is won, if the left first stop operation is performed, or if the middle first stop operation or the right first stop operation is performed, the bonus is given after winning cherry or watermelon. A common effect is executed during the period until it is notified whether or not AT is given. In this embodiment, a continuous effect is executed over a plurality of games from the start of the game next to the game in which the cherry or watermelon is won. In the continuous production, a common production with the same scenario is executed regardless of whether a bonus or AT is given.

At Sp6, the sub-control unit 91 executes continuous effect execution processing (Sp6). In the continuous effect execution process, the sub-control unit 91 performs the process from the game next to the game in which the cherry or watermelon is won according to the effect pattern selected in the effect-related process of Sp5 until it notifies whether an AT or a bonus has been given. A continuous performance is executed to notify whether or not an AT or a bonus is given during a period. It should be noted that the sub-control unit 91 determines whether the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode in the game in which the cherry is won or in the game in which the watermelon is won, the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode. Even in such a situation, the common scenario is executed continuously from the next game after the game in which the cherry or the watermelon is won.

In addition, in the timer interrupt processing (sub), processing related to navigation effect during AT is executed. In addition, when the bonus is won, the decision of the bonus is notified during the inside of the bonus (during carry-over).

[Regarding production-related processing]
The effect-related processing of Sp5 will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 6, in the effect-related process, the sub control unit 91 determines whether or not a game start operation has been performed based on a command from the main control unit 41 (Sa1). Note that the game start operation refers to the operation of the start switch 7 after setting the number of bets.

When a game start operation is performed, the sub-controller 91 determines whether or not a cherry or a watermelon has been won by an internal lottery based on a command from the main controller 41 (Sa1). When cherry or watermelon is won, the sub-control unit 91 executes a predetermined suggestive effect (see FIG. 9) (Sa3). When the cherry or watermelon is not won, the processing is terminated.

Further, when the game start operation has not been performed, the sub control unit 91 determines whether or not the third stop operation has been performed based on the command from the main control unit 41 (Sa4). When the third stop operation is performed, the sub-controller 91 determines whether or not cherry or watermelon is won by internal lottery based on a command from the main controller 41 (Sa5).

When cherry or watermelon is won, the sub-controller 91 determines whether or not a stop operation has been performed according to the first operation mode based on a command from the main controller 41 (Sa6). That is, whether or not the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and the stop operation is performed for the remaining reels at the timing when the "watermelon" is within the retraction range. determine whether When the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the sub-controller 91 executes continuous effect determination processing (Sa7). In the continuous performance determination process, it is determined whether or not to execute the continuous performance, and when the continuous performance is determined, the performance pattern is also determined at the same time. In addition, the number of games for continuous production is also determined. When the stop operation is not performed by the first operation mode (in other words, when the stop operation is performed by the second operation mode), the sub-control unit 91 operates the effect switch 56 (see FIG. 1). A promotion effect to prompt (see FIG. 10) is executed (Sa8). When the cherry or watermelon is not won, the processing is terminated.

Further, when the sub-control unit 91 determines in Sa4 that the third stop operation has not been performed, it determines whether or not the promotion effect started in Sa8 is being executed (Sa9). When the promotion performance is not being executed, the processing is terminated.

When the promotion effect is being executed, the sub-control unit 91 determines whether or not the effect switch 56 has been operated (Sa10). If the performance switch 56 is not operated, the processing is terminated.

When the effect switch 56 is operated, the sub-controller 91 executes specific suggestive effect determination processing (Sa11). In the present embodiment, as specific suggestive effects, a plurality of types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that a bonus has been granted, a plurality of types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that an AT has been granted, and either a bonus or an AT is provided. There are multiple types of specific suggestive effects that suggest that it has been done. Then, the sub-control section 91 determines which specific suggestive effect to execute in the specific suggestive effect determination process. Specifically, when a bonus is given, the sub-control unit 91 provides a plurality of types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that a bonus has been given, and suggests that either a bonus or an AT has been given. It is determined which specific suggesting performance is to be executed from among a plurality of types of specific suggesting performances. Further, when the AT is given, the sub-control unit 91 provides a plurality of types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that the AT has been given, and a plurality of types of special suggestive effects suggesting that either the bonus or the AT has been given. It is determined which specific suggesting performance is to be executed from among the specific suggesting performances. Further, the sub-control unit 91 selects which of all the specific suggestion effects to execute when neither the bonus nor the AT is provided. The types of specific suggestive effects will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

Next, the sub-controller 91 executes a specific suggestion effect (see FIG. 11) (Sa12). And the sub-control part 91 performs a continuous production|presentation determination process similarly to Sa7 (Sa13).

[Regarding the selection rate of production patterns in continuous production]
Next, the selection rate of the effect pattern in the continuous effect determination process of Sa7 and Sa12 in FIG. 6 will be described with reference to FIG. In addition, in this embodiment, a continuous effect A and a continuous effect B are set as effect patterns. The continuous performance A is a performance pattern using the character A, and the continuous performance B is a performance pattern using the character B.

As shown in FIG. 7(a), when cherry or watermelon is won and the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, continuous effect A is 50% and continuous effect B is 50% when the privilege is given. is selected in a ratio of Further, when the privilege is not provided, the continuous performance A is selected at a rate of 60% and the continuous performance B is selected at a rate of 40%.

As shown in FIG. 7(b), when the cherry is won and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the continuous effect A is 40% and the continuous effect B is 60% when the privilege is given. is selected by Further, when the privilege is not given, the continuous performance A is selected at a rate of 5%, the continuous performance B is 15%, and the no performance is selected at a rate of 80%.

As shown in FIG. 7(c), when the watermelon is won and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the continuous effect A is 30% and the continuous effect B is 70% when the privilege is given. is selected by Further, when the privilege is not provided, the continuous performance A is selected at a rate of 70% and the continuous performance B is selected at a rate of 30%.

Note that when the cherry is won and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode (Fig. 7(b)), when the watermelon is won and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode (Fig. 7 ( In any of c)), the selection probability may be set to be the same as when cherry or watermelon is won and the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode (FIG. 7(a)).

Moreover, the production pattern of continuous production is not limited to two types, and the number of production patterns may be further increased.

[Regarding specific suggestion production]
Next, the effect mode of the specific suggestion effect of Sa11 in FIG. 6 will be described with reference to FIG. In this embodiment, a plurality of types of items are displayed as the specific suggestion effect. Then, the degree of expectation for granting the privilege differs according to the displayed item. The items consist of a boxing glove 70, a pistol 71, a sword 72, a bow and arrow 73, an ax 75, a cannon 76, a club 77, and a rocket 78. Is displayed. The specific suggestive effects include multiple types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that a bonus has been granted, multiple types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that an AT has been granted, and suggesting that either a bonus or AT has been granted. There are multiple types of specific suggestive productions. The type (mode) of the specific suggestion effect differs according to the type of item to be displayed. These items are selected with a probability depending on whether or not the privilege is given. As a result, the display of the item suggests the degree of expectation for granting the privilege. Note that the number of stars in the figure indicates the degree of expectation of granting the privilege, and the greater the number of stars, the higher the degree of expectation of granting.

As shown in FIG. 8(a), the specific suggestion effects suggesting that a bonus has been granted include a specific suggestion effect in which a boxing glove 70 is displayed, a specific suggestion effect in which a pistol 71 is displayed, and a sword 72 is displayed. There are three types of specific suggestive productions. When the boxing glove 70 is displayed, the bonus is expected to be given 1 star, when the handgun 71 is displayed, the bonus is expected to be given 2 stars, and when the sword 72 is displayed, the bonus is given. Expectations are 3 stars. Also, boxing gloves 70 and sword 72 may be displayed when cherry or watermelon is won, but sword 72 may only be displayed when watermelon is won.

As shown in FIG. 8(b), the specific suggestion effects suggesting that the AT has been given include a specific suggestion effect in which a bow and arrow 74 is displayed, a specific suggestion effect in which an ax 75 is displayed, and a cannon 76 is displayed. There are three types of specific suggestive effects. When the bow and arrow 74 are displayed, the bonus is expected to be given 1 star, when the ax 75 is displayed, the bonus is expected to be given 2 stars, and when the cannon 76 is displayed, the bonus is expected to be given. The degree is 3 stars. Also, bow and arrow 74 and cannon 76 may be displayed when cherry or watermelon is won, but ax 75 may be displayed only when cherry is won.

As shown in FIG. 8(c), there are two types of specific suggestive effects suggesting that a bonus or AT has been granted: a specific suggestive effect in which a club 77 is displayed, and a specific suggestive effect in which a rocket 78 is displayed. . The expected degree of bonus grant when the club 77 is displayed is 3 stars, and the expected degree of bonus grant when the rocket 78 is displayed is 4 stars. Also, club 77 and rocket 78 may be displayed when cherry or watermelon is won. In the specific suggestive effect suggesting that a bonus or AT has been granted, a one-star item or a two-star item with a low expectation is not displayed, so the expectation of the award of the privilege is high. Rocket 78 is a premium item with the highest expectation, but with a lower appearance probability than other items.

In this embodiment, one of a plurality of types of items is displayed in the specific suggestion effect. It is an item whose set value can be determined when it is displayed continuously. For example, setting 6 is confirmed when the club 77 is displayed twice in succession. That is, when a cherry or a watermelon is won, a stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, and a specific suggestion effect is performed to display the club 77, and after a predetermined number of games (1 to 30 games, etc.), the cherry or When the watermelon is won, the setting 6 is determined when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode and the specific suggesting effect of displaying the club 77 is performed. As described above, in the present embodiment, not only is the item selected with a probability according to whether or not the privilege is given, but also the item is selected according to the set value.

[Regarding specific examples of the present embodiment]
A specific example from when a cherry or watermelon is won to when a continuous effect is executed will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 to 16. FIG. 9 to 12 show specific examples when a privilege is given, and FIGS. 13 to 16 show specific examples when no privilege is given. The arrows in the see-through window 3 in the figure indicate how the reels are rotating.

[Specific example of granting benefits]
First, a specific example of giving a privilege will be described.

First, a case where a cherry is won and a stop operation is performed in the first operation mode will be described. Specifically, in the first operation mode, the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and "watermelon" is within the retraction range for the remaining reels. This is an operation mode in which a stop operation is performed at a certain timing.

When the game start operation is performed and the cherry is won, and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the flow of FIG. 9(a1)→FIG. 9(b1)→FIG. 10(c1)→FIG. become.

As shown in FIG. 9(a1), when the game start operation is performed and a cherry is won, each reel starts to rotate, and an effect screen 80 of a predetermined suggestive effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa3 in FIG. 6). Specifically, the character "chance" is displayed on the effect screen 80 .

As shown in FIG. 9(b1), when the first operation mode, that is, the left first stop operation is performed, the effect screen 81 when winning a rare combination (general term for cherry and watermelon) at the time of the first stop operation is displayed on the liquid crystal display. Displayed from device 51 . In the illustrated example, the stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing, and the symbol "cherry" is stopped on the lower stage of the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 10(c1), when the second and third stop operations are performed and all the reels are stopped, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an effect screen 82 when a rare combination is won at the time of the third stop operation. . In the illustrated example, Cherry has won. When the next game is started, the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B is started, or a game in which the continuous effect is not executed is performed (see FIG. 7(b)).

As shown in FIG. 12, when the next game is started and continuous effects are started, the effect screen 85 for continuous effects is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 . Then, a result notification screen 86 indicating whether or not a privilege has been given is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 after the continuous effect over a plurality of games is executed, and the continuous effect ends.

Next, a case where a watermelon is won and a stop operation is performed in the first operation mode will be described. Specifically, in the first operation mode, the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and "watermelon" is within the retraction range for the remaining reels. This is an operation mode in which a stop operation is performed at a certain timing.

When the game start operation is performed and the watermelon is won, and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the flow of FIG. 9(a3)→FIG. 9(b3)→FIG. 10(c3)→FIG. become.

As shown in FIG. 9(a3), when the game start operation is performed and the watermelon is won, each reel starts to rotate, and an effect screen 80 of a predetermined suggestive effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa3 in FIG. 6). Specifically, the character "chance" is displayed on the effect screen 80 .

As shown in FIG. 9(b3), when the first operation mode, that is, the left first stop operation is performed, the effect screen 81 when winning a rare combination (general term for cherry and watermelon) at the time of the first stop operation is displayed on the liquid crystal display. Displayed from device 51 . In the illustrated example, the stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing, and the symbol "watermelon" is stopped on the upper stage of the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 10(c3), when the second and third stop operations are performed and all the reels are stopped, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an effect screen 82 for winning a rare combination at the time of the third stop operation. . In the illustrated example, a watermelon has won. When the next game is started, the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B is started, or a game in which the continuous effect is not executed is performed (see FIG. 7(c)).

As shown in FIG. 12, when the next game is started and continuous effects are started, the effect screen 85 for continuous effects is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 . Then, a result notification screen 86 indicating whether or not a privilege has been given is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 after the continuous effect over a plurality of games is executed, and the continuous effect ends.

Next, a case where a cherry or a watermelon is won and a stop operation is performed in the second operation mode will be described. Specifically, the first operation mode is the left first stop operation, and the second operation mode is the left first stop operation at a timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are not within the retraction range. The operation mode is either an operation mode in which a middle first stop operation or a right first stop operation is performed, but in this example, an example in which a right first stop operation is performed will be described.

When the game start operation is performed and the cherry or watermelon is won, and the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, FIG. 9(a2)→FIG. 9(b2)→FIG. 10(c2)→FIG. (d2)→FIG. 11(e2))→FIG. 11(f2)→FIG.

As shown in FIG. 9(a2), when a game start operation is performed and a cherry or a watermelon is won, each reel starts spinning, and an effect screen 80 of a predetermined suggestive effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa3 in FIG. 6). Specifically, the character "chance" is displayed on the effect screen 80 .

As shown in FIG. 9(b2), when the right first stop operation is performed as the second operation mode, the effect screen 81 at the time of winning a rare combination (general term for cherry and watermelon) at the time of the first stop operation is displayed on the liquid crystal display. 51 onwards. In addition, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, the symbol "bell" stops on the upper stage of the right reel 2R.

As shown in FIG. 10(c2), when the second and third stop operations are performed and all the reels are stopped, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an effect screen 82 for winning a rare combination at the time of the third stop operation. . In the illustrated example, a watermelon has won. Also, when a cherry or a watermelon is won, a display result in which the bells are aligned on the invalid line LM2, that is, a display result in which the lower bell wins is derived when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, regardless of whether the winning is in the cherry or the watermelon. be.

Then, as shown in FIG. 10(d2), a promotion effect for prompting the operation of the effect switch 56 is executed (see Sa8 in FIG. 6). Execution of the promotion effect is started when the stop switch is released (when the depression is released). When the promotion effect is executed, the effect screen 83 for the promotion effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. - 特許庁

As shown in FIG. 11(e2), when the effect switch 56 is operated while the promotion effect is being executed, the white image 84 is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. As shown in FIG. When the game start operation is performed without operating the effect switch 56, that is, when the promotion effect is canceled, the continuous effect is started.

As shown in FIG. 11(f2), when a predetermined period of time elapses after the white image 84 is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51, the specific suggestion effect is executed, and the specific suggestion effect effect screen 85 is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa12 in FIG. 6). This suggests the degree of expectation of granting the privilege. The illustrated example shows an example in which a sword 73 is displayed. Therefore, it is suggested that there is a high degree of expectation for bonuses (see FIG. 8). When the next game is started, the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B is started, or a game in which the continuous effect is not executed is performed (see FIG. 7(a)).

As shown in FIG. 12, when the next game is started and continuous effects are started, the effect screen 85 for continuous effects is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 . Then, a result notification screen 86 indicating whether or not a privilege has been given is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 after the continuous effect over a plurality of games is executed, and the continuous effect ends. As described above, either the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B, which is a common scenario, is executed in the period from the next game after the game in which the cherry or watermelon is won until the result notification screen 86 is displayed.

[Specific example when benefits are not granted]
Next, a specific example when the privilege is not granted will be described.

First, a case where a cherry is won and a stop operation is performed in the first operation mode will be described. Specifically, in the first operation mode, the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and "watermelon" is within the retraction range for the remaining reels. This is an operation mode in which a stop operation is performed at a certain timing.

When the game start operation is performed and the cherry is won, and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the flow of FIG. 13(a1)→FIG. 13(b1)→FIG. 14(c1)→FIG. become.

As shown in FIG. 13(a1), when a game start operation is performed and a cherry is won, each reel starts to rotate, and an effect screen 80 of a predetermined suggestive effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa3 in FIG. 6). Specifically, the character "chance" is displayed on the effect screen 80 .

As shown in FIG. 13(b1), when the first operation mode, that is, the left first stop operation is performed, the effect screen 81 at the time of winning a rare combination (general term for cherry and watermelon) at the time of the first stop operation is displayed on the liquid crystal display. Displayed from device 51 . In the illustrated example, the stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing, and the symbol "cherry" is stopped on the lower stage of the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 14(c1), when the second and third stop operations are performed and all the reels are stopped, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an effect screen 82 when a rare combination is won at the time of the third stop operation. . In the illustrated example, Cherry has won. When the next game is started, the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B is started, or a game in which the continuous effect is not executed is performed (see FIG. 7(b)).

As shown in FIG. 16, when the next game is started and the continuous effect is started, the effect screen 85 for the continuous effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 . Then, a result notification screen 86 indicating whether or not a privilege has been given is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 after the continuous effect over a plurality of games is executed, and the continuous effect ends.

Next, a case where a watermelon is won and a stop operation is performed in the first operation mode will be described. Specifically, in the first operation mode, the left first stop operation is performed at the timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are within the retraction range, and "watermelon" is within the retraction range for the remaining reels. This is an operation mode in which a stop operation is performed at a certain timing.

When the game start operation is performed and the watermelon is won, and the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode, the flow of FIG. 13(a3)→FIG. 13(b3)→FIG. 14(c3)→FIG. become.

As shown in FIG. 13(a3), when the game start operation is performed and the watermelon is won, each reel starts to rotate, and an effect screen 80 of a predetermined suggestive effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa3 in FIG. 6). Specifically, the character "chance" is displayed on the effect screen 80 .

As shown in FIG. 13(b3), when the first operation mode, that is, the left first stop operation is performed, the effect screen 81 when winning a rare combination (general term for cherry and watermelon) at the time of the first stop operation is displayed on the liquid crystal display. Displayed from device 51 . In the illustrated example, the stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing, and the symbol "watermelon" is stopped on the upper stage of the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 14(c3), when the second and third stop operations are performed and all the reels are stopped, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an effect screen 82 when a rare combination is won at the time of the third stop operation. . In the illustrated example, a watermelon has won. When the next game is started, the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B is started, or a game in which the continuous effect is not executed is performed (see FIG. 7(c)).

As shown in FIG. 16, when the next game is started and the continuous effect is started, the effect screen 85 for the continuous effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 . Then, a result notification screen 86 indicating whether or not a privilege has been given is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 after the continuous effect over a plurality of games is executed, and the continuous effect ends.

Next, a case where a cherry or a watermelon is won and a stop operation is performed in the second operation mode will be described. Specifically, the first operation mode is the left first stop operation, and the second operation mode is the left first stop operation at a timing when the symbols "cherry" and "watermelon" are not within the retraction range. The operation mode is either an operation mode in which a middle first stop operation or a right first stop operation is performed, but in this example, an example in which a right first stop operation is performed will be described.

When the game start operation is performed and the cherry or watermelon is won, and the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, FIG. 13(a2)→FIG. 13(b2)→FIG. (d2)→FIG. 15(e2))→FIG. 15(f2)→FIG.

As shown in FIG. 13(a2), when a game start operation is performed and a cherry or a watermelon is won, each reel starts to rotate, and an effect screen 80 of a predetermined suggestive effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa3 in FIG. 6). Specifically, the character "chance" is displayed on the effect screen 80 .

As shown in FIG. 13(b2), when the right first stop operation is performed as the second operation mode, the effect screen 81 at the time of winning a rare combination (general term for cherry and watermelon) at the time of the first stop operation is displayed on the liquid crystal display. 51 onwards. In addition, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, the symbol "bell" stops on the upper stage of the right reel 2R.

As shown in FIG. 14(c2), when the second and third stop operations are performed and all the reels are stopped, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an effect screen 82 for winning a rare combination at the time of the third stop operation. . In the illustrated example, a watermelon has won. Also, when a cherry or a watermelon is won, a display result in which the bells are aligned on the invalid line LM2, that is, a display result in which the lower bell wins is derived when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, regardless of whether the winning is in the cherry or the watermelon. be.

Then, as shown in FIG. 14(d2), a promotion effect for prompting the operation of the effect switch 56 is executed (see Sa8 in FIG. 6). Execution of the promotion effect is started when the stop switch is released (when the depression is released). When the promotion effect is executed, the effect screen 83 for the promotion effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. - 特許庁

As shown in FIG. 15(e2), when the effect switch 56 is operated while the promotion effect is being executed, the white image 84 is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. As shown in FIG. When the game start operation is performed without operating the effect switch 56, that is, when the promotion effect is canceled, the continuous effect is started.

As shown in FIG. 15(f2), when the white image 84 is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 and a predetermined period elapses, the specific suggestion effect is executed, and the specific suggestion effect effect screen 85 is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51. (See Sa12 in FIG. 6). This suggests the degree of expectation of granting the privilege. The illustrated example shows an example in which a sword 73 is displayed. Therefore, it is suggested that there is a high degree of expectation for bonuses (see FIG. 8). When the next game is started, the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B is started, or a game in which the continuous effect is not executed is performed (see FIG. 7(b)).

As shown in FIG. 16, when the next game is started and the continuous effect is started, the effect screen 85 for the continuous effect is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 . Then, a result notification screen 86 indicating whether or not a privilege has been given is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 after the continuous effect over a plurality of games is executed, and the continuous effect ends. As described above, either the continuous effect A or the continuous effect B, which is a common scenario, is executed in the period from the next game after the game in which the cherry or watermelon is won until the result notification screen 86 is displayed.

As described above, in the present embodiment, a privilege can be granted when a cherry or a watermelon is won, and the degree of advantage in granting the privilege differs between when the cherry is won and when the watermelon is won. When cherry or watermelon is won, it can be determined whether the result of the internal lottery is cherry or watermelon from the stopped pattern (display result of pattern) by performing the stop operation in the first operation mode. However, since the specific suggestion effect is not executed, it is not possible to identify the degree of expectation for granting the privilege. On the other hand, when cherry or watermelon is won, it cannot be determined whether the result of internal lottery is cherry or watermelon from the stopped pattern (display result of pattern) if stop operation is performed in the second operation mode. However, since the specific suggesting effect is executed, it is possible to identify the degree of expectation of awarding of the privilege. Therefore, the player can play the game with two patterns of game methods, and the interest in the game can be improved. In addition, when the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode and when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, the result of whether or not the privilege is given after winning the cherry or the watermelon is reported. Since a continuous performance based on a common scenario is executed during the period in which the game is played, it is possible to prevent the player from being puzzled.

In this embodiment, an example is given in which the specific suggestion effect is executed when the effect switch 56 is operated in the promotion effect, but when the stop switch related to the third stop operation is released ), it may be possible to execute a specific suggestion effect.

Further, in the present embodiment, an example is given in which the predetermined suggestive effect is executed when the game start operation is performed. A predetermined suggestion effect may be executed. In this case, for example, when a cherry or a watermelon is won and the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode and the lower bell wins, the liquid crystal display 51 displays "chance!" Further, it is possible to configure such that a predetermined suggestion effect is executed when the effect switch 56 is operated. Further, the predetermined suggestive effect is not limited to the display of characters from the liquid crystal display 51, and for example, the color of the image is changed. Displaying a character, flashing back lamps of reels, and the like are not limited to the aspects of the present embodiment.

In this embodiment, in the timer interrupt process (sub), the sub control unit 91 identifies the set value being set based on the command from the main control unit 41, and performs a setting suggestion effect suggesting the set value. is executed at a predetermined timing. The setting suggesting effect includes the effect that the setting 6 is confirmed and the effect that the setting 4 or higher is confirmed. There is no difference between set values in the probability of simultaneously winning a cherry and a bonus, or in the probability of winning an AT lottery when a cherry is won. However, there is a difference depending on the set value in the probability of simultaneously winning the watermelon and the bonus, and the probability of winning the AT lottery when the watermelon is won. Therefore, the player who wants to determine the set value can perform the stop operation in the first operation mode, and the player who wants to enjoy the specific suggestive effect can perform the stop operation in the second operation mode, thereby performing two patterns of games. be able to. In addition, even a player who has been discriminating the set value can discriminate the set value by the setting suggesting effect, and after discriminating the set value, he can perform the stop operation in the second operation mode and enjoy the specific suggesting effect. , can improve the interest of the game.

Further, in the present embodiment, it is determined that the cherry or the watermelon is won and the privilege is not given, and the continuous effect is executed. Sometimes, by rewriting the data regarding the notification of the performance result, it is possible to change the notification of the performance result from the notification that the privilege is not given to the notification that the privilege is given.

Note that the continuous effect may be started after a plurality of games without being limited to the next game after the game in which the cherry or watermelon was won. In this case, by executing an effect suggesting that the continuous effect will be executed in the game until the start of the continuous effect, the expectation for the continuous effect can be enhanced.

[About the navigation performance during AT]
Next, navigation effect during AT will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 17(a), during AT, when the push order bell or push order replay is won, the sub-control unit 91 performs a navigation effect. Although not shown, navigation notification is also performed by the main control unit 41 . For example, assume that the navigation effect prompting the right first stop operation is executed and the navigation effect screen 90 is displayed. At this time, when the pressing order bell is won, a navigation effect with a yellow or white image is executed. Also, when winning the push order replay, a navigation effect is executed with a blue or white image.

Then, when the pressing order bell is won, the right first stop operation is performed in accordance with the navigation performance, and then when the stop operation is performed for the remaining reels, the right descending bell is won.

In addition, when winning the pressing order replay, after the right first stop operation is performed according to the navigation effect, if the stop operation is performed for the remaining reels, the middle stage replay is won.

As shown in FIG. 17(b), when cherry or watermelon is won, a suggestion screen 91 is displayed which suggests that cherry or watermelon has been won with a probability of 75%. In the illustrated example, three characters "CHANCE" are displayed side by side. And if a stop operation is performed at an appropriate timing, a cherry or a watermelon will be awarded.

Also, when cherry or watermelon is won, the sub-control unit 91 performs navigation effect with a probability of 25% when pushing order bell or pushing order replay is won. For example, assume that the navigation effect prompting the right first stop operation is executed and the navigation effect screen 90 is displayed. At this time, a navigation effect using a white image is executed. Therefore, from the color of the image of the navigation effect screen 90, it is not possible to determine which of the pressing order bell, pressing order replay, cherry, and watermelon is won. Then, when the right first stop operation is performed according to the navigation effect, a display result in which the bells are aligned in the invalid Iran LM2 (that is, a display result in which the bells are aligned in the lower row of each reel) is derived.

In this way, when the right first stop operation is performed according to the navigation effect, a common display result is displayed when winning the pressing order bell and when winning the cherry or watermelon. That is, when the right first stop operation is performed, the symbol "bell" stops at the lower stage of the reel 2R. Therefore, at this time, it is not possible to distinguish whether the player has won the push-order bell, or whether the cherry or watermelon has been won. In particular, if a cherry or a watermelon is won, a privilege can be given, so if it is discovered that the cherry or the watermelon has been won when all the reels are stopped, the unexpectedness can be enhanced.

In addition, when the bonus determination notification is performed during the bonus, the navigation effect is not executed even if the cherry or the watermelon is won. That is, in the distribution in the figure, "75%" becomes "100%", and "25%" becomes "0%".

In this way, even if a cherry or a watermelon is won during the bonus period, the bonus will not be won at the same time. Therefore, when a player wins a cherry or a watermelon while a bonus confirmation is announced, the player feels dissatisfied even if the navigation performance shown in FIG. Therefore, the dissatisfaction of the player can be reduced by not executing the navigation effect (and the navigation notification) when the cherry or watermelon is won during the bonus determination notification.

[Effect of this embodiment]
Next, the effects of this embodiment will be described.

(1) In the present embodiment, a privilege can be given when a cherry or a watermelon is won, and the degree of advantage is different between when a cherry is won and when a watermelon is won. When cherry or watermelon is won, it can be determined whether the result of the internal lottery is cherry or watermelon from the stopped pattern (display result of pattern) by performing the stop operation in the first operation mode. However, since the specific suggestion effect is not executed, it is not possible to identify the degree of expectation for granting the privilege. On the other hand, when cherry or watermelon is won, it cannot be determined whether the result of internal lottery is cherry or watermelon from the stopped pattern (display result of pattern) if stop operation is performed in the second operation mode. However, since the specific suggestion effect is executed, it is possible to identify the degree of expectation of awarding of the privilege (in this example, the portions shown in FIGS. 6 and 9 to 12).
Therefore, the player can play the game with two patterns of game methods, and the interest in the game can be improved. In addition, when the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode and when the stop operation is performed in an operation mode different from the first stop operation mode, the continuous performance is executed according to the common scenario, which confuses the player. can be prevented.

(2) In the present embodiment, three medals are paid out when any of the display result of winning cherry, the display result of watermelon winning, and the display result of lower bell winning is derived.
Therefore, the player can be prevented from being disadvantaged because the medals are not paid out when the stop operation is performed in the first operation mode or when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode.

(3) In this embodiment, the lower bell is arranged with patterns so that the attraction probability is 100%.
Therefore, even when the stop operation is performed in the second operation mode, it is possible to easily determine from the display result that the cherry or watermelon has been won.

(4) In the present embodiment, the predetermined suggestive effect is executed when the game start operation is performed, and the specific suggestive effect is executed at a predetermined timing after deriving the display result that the lower bell wins (this example 6, 9, and 11).
Therefore, since the two effects are not executed at the same time, it is possible to easily convey to the player the degree of expectation of awarding of the privilege.

(5) In the present embodiment, the specific suggestive effect is executed when the effect switch 56 is operated after the lower bell wins the display result, and the specific suggestive effect is executed when the effect switch 56 is operated. A white image is displayed before execution (in this example, the portion shown in FIG. 10).
Therefore, it is possible to draw attention to the specific suggestion effect.

(6) In this embodiment, even if the production switch 56 is not operated in the promotion production, the common production with the same scenario is executed in the continuous production (in this example, the portion shown in FIGS. 10 and 12). .
Therefore, it is possible to prevent the control load of the slot machine.

(7) In the present embodiment, the boxing gloves 70 and the pistol 71 and the sword 72, which are more likely to be given benefits than the boxing gloves 70, are items that suggest giving a bonus in the specific suggesting effect, and AT is given. Items suggesting are a bow and arrow 73, and an ax 75 and a cannon 76, which are more likely to be given benefits than the bow and arrow 73 (in this example, the portion shown in FIG. 8).
Therefore, since the specific suggestive effects are diversified, the amusement of the game can be improved.

(8) In the present embodiment, a rocket 78 is displayed as an item that is displayed both when a bonus is given and when an AT is given in the specific suggestive effect. , the ax 75, and the cannon 76, the bonus or AT granting expectation is higher (in this example, the portion shown in FIG. 8).
Therefore, the player's attention can be drawn to the display of the rocket 78, and when the rocket 78 is displayed, the player's attention can also be drawn to whether the bonus or the AT is given. .

(9) In this embodiment, a setting suggestion effect that suggests the set value being set is executed at a predetermined timing, and the probability of winning the cherry and the bonus at the same time, and the winning probability of the AT lottery when the cherry wins are set. No value difference. However, there is a difference depending on the set value in the probability of simultaneously winning the watermelon and the bonus, and the probability of winning the AT lottery when the watermelon is won.
Therefore, the player who wants to determine the set value can perform the stop operation in the first operation mode, and the player who wants to enjoy the specific suggestive effect can perform the stop operation in the second operation mode, thereby performing two patterns of games. be able to. In addition, even a player who has been discriminating the set value can discriminate the set value by the setting suggesting effect, and after discriminating the set value, he can perform the stop operation in the second operation mode and enjoy the specific suggesting effect. , can improve the interest of the game.

(10) In the present embodiment, in the specific suggestion effect, an item (in this example, an ax 75) that is displayed only when winning a cherry and an item (in this example, an ax 75) that is displayed only when winning a watermelon (in this example, pistol 71) and items (in this example, boxing gloves 70, sword 72, bow and arrow 73, cannon 76, club 77, rocket 78) that are displayed only when cherry or watermelon is won (in this example, part shown in FIG. 8).
Therefore, even a player who performs a stop operation in the second operation mode can determine whether or not the lottery result has a difference according to the set value, although not as much as a player who performs the stop operation in the first operation mode. can be improved.

(11) In this embodiment, when the right first stop operation is performed according to the navigation effect, a common display result is displayed when winning the pressing order bell and when winning the cherry or watermelon. That is, when the right first stop operation is performed, the symbol "bell" stops at the lower stage of the reel 2R (in this example, the portion shown in FIG. 17).
Therefore, at this time, it is not possible to distinguish whether the player has won the push-order bell, or whether the cherry or watermelon has been won. In particular, if a cherry or a watermelon is won, a privilege can be given, so if it is discovered that the cherry or the watermelon has been won when all the reels are stopped, the unexpectedness can be enhanced.

(12) In the present embodiment, no bonus lottery is performed by internal lottery during the bonus period, and navigation notification and navigation effect are not executed when cherry or watermelon is won during bonus determination notification.
Therefore, even if a cherry or a watermelon is won during the bonus period, the bonus will not be won at the same time. In addition, the player feels dissatisfied even if the navigation notification or the navigation performance is executed to give the unexpectedness. Therefore, the dissatisfaction of the player can be reduced by not executing the navigation effect (and the navigation notification) when the cherry or watermelon is won during the bonus determination notification.
