[Slot machine configuration]
As shown in FIG. 1, inside a slot machine 1, which is a game machine, reels 2L, 2C, and 2R (hereinafter referred to as left reel, middle reel, and right reel) on which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged are arranged horizontally. , and three consecutive symbols among the symbols arranged on the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are arranged so that they can be seen through the see-through window 3. As shown in FIG.

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 symbols drawn on the outer peripheries of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are displayed in three stages of the top, middle, and bottom in the see-through window 3, respectively.

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.

In the slot machine 1, the player operates a start switch 7 which is operated to start the game, and stop switches 8L, 8C and 8R which are operated to stop the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C and 2R. provided for each possible. Further, the slot machine 1 is provided above the transparent window 3 with a liquid crystal display 51 for displaying images, a speaker 53 for outputting sound, and a lamp 60 arranged near the liquid crystal display 51 . The lamp 60 is always on, but is turned off when an image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 by suggestive control for suggesting a set value, which will be described later.

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.

When playing a game on the slot machine 1, first, the player inserts medals from the medal inserting portion or sets the bet amount using credits by operating the bet button. When the prescribed number of bets determined according to the game state is set, the winning line LN is activated, and the operation of the start switch 7 is activated, that is, the game can be started. 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 of the reel 2L, the middle of the reel 2C, and the middle of the reel 2R, that is, the symbols horizontally arranged in the middle. 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.

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), the medals are paid out directly from the medal payout port. 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.

In the slot machine 1, after the game is started and the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R rotate and the symbols start to change, when one of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is operated, the stop switch 8L is operated. , 8C, and 8R stop rotating, and 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.

In the slot machine 1, when all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are stopped, the activated pay line LN (hereinafter, the activated pay line LN is simply referred to as the pay line LN) is a symbol called a win. If the combination is complete, you will win a prize. 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.

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. Hereinafter, setting value 1 may be referred to as setting 1, setting value 2 as setting 2, setting value 3 as setting 3, setting value 4 as setting 4, setting value 5 as setting 5, and setting value 6 as setting 6.

[About the game section]
The main control unit 41 controls the game section. The game section includes a normal section and an advantageous section.

The advantageous section is a section having performance related to an instruction function for instructing the player how to operate the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R (operation procedure (press order), operation timing). In the advantageous section, a navigation effect is executed at least once in which a prize is awarded to obtain the maximum payout number. Specifically, when the winning combination for the pressing order is won, a navigation effect for informing the correct procedure is executed. Navigation effect is not executed in the normal section. In other words, the advantageous section is more advantageous to the player than the normal section in that the navigation effect in which the maximum number of coins to be paid out is generated is executed at least once.

In addition, the "advantageous section" includes a section controlled to AT (assist time), a section controlled to CZ (chance zone), and a section controlled to a normal state that is neither AT nor CZ. be CZ is a state in which the degree of advantage in controlling the AT is higher than in the normal state. A high degree of advantage in controlling the AT includes being easily controlled by the AT.

After the setting is changed, it is controlled to the normal section, and it shifts to the advantageous section based on winning the advantageous section transition lottery for shifting to the advantageous section. If it shifts to an advantageous section, it will be controlled to AT, CZ, or a normal state. When AT or CZ is controlled in an advantageous section, it is controlled to the normal state when AT or CZ ends. When the advantageous section continues, when the control conditions for AT and CZ are satisfied in the normal state, control is performed again for AT and CZ.

The main control unit 41 counts the number of games played during the advantageous section. Also, the number of medals acquired by the player is counted. Then, the main control unit 41 determines whether the number of counted games (also referred to as the number of counted games) reaches a predetermined number of games (1500 games in this embodiment), or when the number of medals acquired by the player reaches a predetermined number. Execute limit processing when reached. When the limit process is executed, all the data related to the advantageous section including the number of games counted and the number of obtained games are initialized, and the advantageous section being executed ends and returns to the normal section. Also, the advantageous section is controlled to the normal state after AT or CZ ends, and ends when a predetermined number of games (for example, 32 games) have been played. If AT or CZ is controlled again within a predetermined number of games after the end of AT or CZ, the advantageous section is from the end of the re-controlled AT or CZ until the predetermined number of games are played in the normal state. continue. That is, unless limit processing is performed, the advantageous section continues as long as AT or CZ is controlled again after the end of AT or CZ until a predetermined number of games are played. Then, when the advantageous section ends, all the data related to the advantageous section are initialized, and the advantageous section being executed ends and the normal section returns. A level-up flag (specific right), which will be described later, is also cleared by initialization when the advantageous section ends. Further, when the data relating to the advantageous section is initialized, for example, if the advantageous section being executed is CZ, the CZ is terminated even if the number of CZ games still remains. Also, for example, when the advantageous section being executed is AT, AT ends even if the number of AT games still remains. If you return to the normal section and win the advantageous section transition lottery, which will be described later, you will move to the advantageous section again.

While being controlled in the advantageous section, a lottery relating to the instruction function for instructing the player how to operate the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is performed. The lottery related to the instruction function includes, for example, an AT lottery for determining whether or not to control the AT, and an additional lottery for adding a period of control to the AT. In this embodiment, one set (50 games) of AT is provided when the AT lottery is won, and one set (50 games) of AT is added when the additional lottery is won.

The advantageous section transition lottery is a complete probability. Specifically, in the advantageous section transition lottery, the winning probability does not change regardless of the set value of 1-6. In addition, the advantageous section transition lottery is not executed when winning a combination that changes the winning probability of the internal lottery according to the set value. Further, the advantageous section transition lottery is not executed when winning a combination that changes the winning probability of the internal lottery according to the game state. In addition, in the advantage zone transition lottery, the winning probability does not change according to the number of bets (prescribed number) required for playing one game. In addition, the winning probability of the advantageous section transition lottery does not change according to the game state. Furthermore, in the advantageous section transition lottery, the lottery opportunity does not change according to the specified number or game state.

[About the game flow]
As shown in FIG. 3, in the present embodiment, when a lottery condition is established during AT, an additional lottery is performed to determine whether or not to add one set (50 games) of AT. The lottery condition of the additional lottery is to win the lottery target role of the additional lottery by the internal lottery. When the addition lottery is performed, the AT is interrupted and controlled to the addition specialized zone. The additional specialized zone is controlled for a predetermined period (30 games in this embodiment). When it is controlled to the special zone for addition, the sub-control section 91 controls to execute a battle effect. A battle effect is executed using the liquid crystal display 51 and the speaker 53 .

In the battle production, if a predetermined lottery role is won by an internal lottery, the enemy character can be attacked. In addition, 5 points are given to the ally character's physical strength by default. Then, when the battle effect ends (that is, when 30 games have been played since the start of the battle effect), if the physical strength of the ally character remains, the ally character wins. Then, when the teammate character wins, it is notified that the additional lottery has been won. Also, when the enemy character wins, it is reported that the additional lottery was not won. When winning the battle production, in other words, when winning the addition lottery, the zone is again controlled to the addition specialized zone. That is, as long as you win the addition lottery and continue to win the battle performance, you are repeatedly controlled to the addition specialized zone.

Also, if a player wins a level-up lottery that is executed at the start of the battle presentation, the ally character may be leveled up. When the level of the ally character is increased, the physical strength of the ally character is increased by 1 point. When the ally character is leveled up, it becomes easier to win the battle than when the ally character is not leveled up. In other words, it becomes easier to win the additional lottery. Then, when the teammate character is leveled up, the lottery target role of the add-on lottery increases, and the probability of being controlled to the add-on special zone again after the end of the add-on special zone increases. Once you level up during the advantageous section, the leveled up state will be maintained until the end of the advantageous section, and the leveled up state will end at the end of the advantageous section. Therefore, when the AT ends in the advantageous section and is controlled to the normal state, and is controlled by the AT again before a predetermined number of games are played in the normal state, that is, when the AT is pulled back during the advantageous section, it is controlled again. The level-up state of the ally character is maintained in the AT that is used. Therefore, when the ally character is leveled up, the expectation of the AT's return increases. That is, in the present embodiment, the specific right is the level-up of the teammate character, and the specific right is maintained until the end of the advantageous interval and disappears when the advantageous interval ends.

Also, if the physical strength increase lottery is won in the lottery at the start of the battle production, the physical strength of the ally character is increased by 1 point only for the battle production, in addition to the level-up of the ally character. When the physical strength of the ally character increases by 1 point, it becomes easier to win the battle. In other words, it becomes easier to win the additional lottery. That is, in the present embodiment, increasing the physical strength of a teammate character by winning the physical strength increasing lottery is granting of a predetermined right, and the predetermined right disappears when the battle presentation to which the predetermined right is granted ends.

When the battle production ends and the addition specialization zone ends, it returns to AT, but when the addition lottery is won again, it is controlled to the addition specialization zone again. In this way, the add-on specialization zone may be controlled multiple times during the AT.

Note that AT has an AT mode A with a motif of the first character and an AT mode B with a motif of the second character. That is, it is possible to execute AT mode A and AT mode B, which are ATs with different modes of presentation. Which AT to control is determined by the sub-controller 91 when the AT lottery is won. A battle effect is executed in a mode using a character corresponding to the determined AT mode.

[About game processing]
FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing the control contents of the game process executed by the main control unit 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.

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 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.

[Additional special zone related processing]
Next, the additional special zone related processing executed in the internal lottery processing (Sd2) of FIG. 4 will be described.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, in the additional special zone-related processing, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not a game start operation has been performed (Sa1). A game start operation is an operation of the start switch 7 after setting the number of bets. If the game start operation has not been performed, the process ends.

When the game start operation is performed, it is determined whether or not AT is in progress (Sa2). If AT is not in progress, the process is terminated. When the AT is in progress, whether or not the lottery conditions for the add-on lottery for determining whether or not to add one set (50 games) of AT are established, or whether or not the control of the added-on special zone is started. (Sa3). In the present embodiment, the lottery condition for the additional lottery is to win the lottery target role for the additional lottery through the internal lottery. Further, when a level-up flag of Sa14, which will be described later, is set, and the teammate character is in a state of level-up in the battle effect, the number of winning combinations for the additional lottery increases. Therefore, when the ally character is leveled up, there is a high probability that the character will be controlled again in the additional special zone.

When the lottery condition for the addition lottery is not established and when the addition specialized zone is not added, the processing is terminated. When the lottery conditions for the add-on lottery are established, or when control of the added add-on special zone is started, a physical strength increase lottery is executed to determine whether or not to increase the physical strength of the ally character in the battle production (Sa4). ). Next, it is determined whether or not the physical strength increase lottery has been won (Sa5). Incidentally, as described above, the physical strength of the ally character given when winning the physical strength increase lottery is a predetermined right.

When the physical strength increase lottery is won, it is determined whether or not a level-up flag indicating that the ally character in the battle effect is leveled up is set in the RAM 41c (Sa6). As described above, the physical strength of the ally character that is granted by leveling up is a specific right.

When the level-up flag is set, an extra lottery is executed using the super high probability table with the highest winning probability (Sa7).

When the level-up flag is not set, an additional lottery is executed using a high-probability table with a lower winning probability than the ultra-high-probability table (Sa16).

On the other hand, when the physical strength up lottery is not won, it is determined whether or not the level up flag is set in the RAM 41c (Sa15). When the level-up flag is set, an additional lottery is executed using the high-probability table (Sa16).

When the level-up flag is not set, the extra lottery is executed using a low-probability table with a lower winning probability than the ultra-high-probability table and the high-probability table, in other words, a low-probability table with the lowest winning probability (Sa17). .

By selecting the lottery table and executing the additional lottery in this manner, when the level of the ally character is increased and the physical strength of the ally character is increased by winning the physical strength increase lottery, the probability of winning the additional lottery is the highest. Become. Also, when the teammate character has not been leveled up and has not won the physical strength increase lottery, the winning probability of the extra lottery is the lowest. Also, if your ally character has leveled up or won the physical strength up lottery, the winning probability will be lower than when both conditions are met, but it will be lower than when neither condition is met. The probability of winning the additional lottery will also increase.

When the additional lottery ends, it is determined whether or not the additional lottery has been won (Sa8). If the player has not won the additional lottery, the processing is terminated. When winning the add-on lottery, the process of adding one set of the add-on specialized zone is performed (Sa9), and the process of adding one set of the AT is also performed (Sa10).

Then, it is determined whether or not the level-up flag is set in the RAM 41c (Sa11). If the level-up flag is set, the process ends. When the level-up flag is not set, a level-up lottery is executed to decide whether or not to level up the teammate character (Sa12). In other words, whether or not to grant the specific right is determined by lottery.

When the level-up lottery is not won, the process is terminated, and when the level-up lottery is won, the level-up flag is set in the RAM 41c and the process is terminated (Sa14).

[Advantageous section end processing]
Next, the advantageous section ending process executed in the game ending process (Sd6) of FIG. 4 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 7, in the advantageous section end process, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the third stop operation has been performed (Sb1). If the third stop operation has not been performed, the process ends.

When the third stop operation is performed, it is determined whether or not the advantageous section has ended (Sb2). If the advantageous section has not ended, the process ends.

When the advantageous section ends, it is determined whether or not the level-up flag is set in the RAM 41c (Sb3). When the level-up flag is set, the level-up flag is cleared (Sb4). The level-up state of the teammate character is maintained until the end of the advantageous section by this process. When the level-up flag is not set or when the level-up flag is cleared, it is determined whether or not the AT is under control (Sb5). When the AT is being executed, AT termination processing is executed (Sb6). When AT is not under control, CZ is under control, so CZ end processing is executed (Sb7).

[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. 8, 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 an effect execution process during AT (Sp5). In the AT performance execution process, it is determined which of AT mode A and AT mode B is to be controlled. When AT mode A is controlled, an effect corresponding to the AT mode A aspect is executed during AT, and when AT mode B is controlled, an effect corresponding to the AT mode B aspect is executed during AT. do. Further, when it is identified based on a command from the main control section 41 that the navigation target role is won during AT, the navigation performance is executed.

At Sp6, the sub-control unit 91 executes a battle effect execution process (Sp6). In the battle performance execution process, the battle performance is executed when the zone is controlled to the special zone. When the AT mode A is controlled, the character corresponding to the AT mode A is used to execute the battle performance, and when the AT mode B is controlled, the character corresponding to the AT mode A is used to execute the battle performance. Incidentally, whether or not the zone is the special zone for addition, and the winning result of the addition lottery are identified based on the command from the main control section 41 .

At Sp7, the sub-control unit 91 executes AT ending screen display processing (Sp7). In the AT ending screen display process, the ending screen is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 at the end of AT in AT mode A and AT mode B. FIG. At this time, the ending screen is selected from among a plurality of types, and the setting value being set may be suggested by the displayed ending screen. Specifically, settings 1-3 or settings 4-6 are suggested. Hereinafter, settings 1 to 3 may be referred to as low settings, and settings 4 to 6 may be referred to as high settings.

[Types of ending screens]
Here, the types of ending screens will be described.

[Ending screen that can be selected in AT mode A]
The ending screens that can be selected in AT mode A are the default screen A, the first high setting suggestion screen suggesting settings 4-6, the default screen B suggesting settings 4-6, and settings 4-6. There is a second high setting suggesting screen suggesting that the setting is , and a third high setting suggesting screen suggesting that the setting is 4-6.

Default screen A is an ending screen normally displayed in AT mode A, and is less likely to be displayed in AT mode A with settings 4-6 than with settings 1-3. Also, the probability of being displayed is high compared to other ending screens.

The first high setting suggestion screen is more likely to be displayed when the settings are 4-6 than when the settings are 1-3. Therefore, the first high setting suggestion screen is a screen that suggests settings 4-6. The first high setting suggestion screen is a screen different from the default screen A, and is a screen displayed in place of the default screen A. FIG.

Default screen B is an ending screen normally displayed in AT mode B, and is less likely to be displayed in AT mode B with settings 4-6 than with settings 1-3. However, in the AT mode A, the probability of being displayed is higher when the settings are 4-6 than when the settings are 1-3. Therefore, the default screen B displayed in the AT mode A is a screen suggesting settings 4-6. In the AT mode A, the default screen A should normally be displayed. Therefore, the display of the default screen B in the AT mode A is called rule breaking.

The second high setting suggestion screen is more likely to be displayed when the settings are 4-6 than when the settings are 1-3. Therefore, the second high setting suggestion screen is a screen that suggests settings 4-6. The second high setting suggestion screen is a screen in which an additional image is superimposed on the default screen A. FIG.

The third high setting suggestion screen is displayed only when the settings are 4-6. Therefore, the third high setting suggestion screen is a screen for notifying that the settings 4 to 6 are confirmed. The third high setting suggestion screen is a screen in which an additional image is superimposed on the first high setting suggestion screen. Note that, in the present embodiment, the third high setting suggestion screen is a screen common to the AT mode A and the AT mode B. FIG.

Hereinafter, default screen A and default screen B may be collectively referred to as default screens.

[Ending screen that can be selected in AT mode B]
Ending screens that can be selected in AT mode B include a default screen B, a first high setting suggestion screen suggesting settings 4 to 6, a default screen B suggesting settings 4 to 6, and settings 4 to 6. There is a second high setting suggesting screen suggesting that the setting is , and a third high setting suggesting screen suggesting that the setting is 4-6.

Default screen B is an ending screen normally displayed in AT mode B, and is less likely to be displayed in AT mode A when settings are 4-6 than when settings are 1-3. Also, the probability of being displayed is high compared to other ending screens.

The first high setting suggestion screen is more likely to be displayed when the settings are 4-6 than when the settings are 1-3. Therefore, the first high setting suggestion screen is a screen that suggests settings 4-6. The first high setting suggestion screen is a screen different from the default screen B, and is a screen displayed instead of the default screen B. FIG. Note that, in the present embodiment, the first high setting suggestion screen is a screen common to the AT mode A and the AT mode B. FIG.

Default screen A is an ending screen normally displayed in AT mode A, and is less likely to be displayed in AT mode A with settings 4-6 than with settings 1-3. However, in the AT mode B, the probability of being displayed is higher when the settings are 4-6 than when the settings are 1-3. Therefore, the default screen A displayed in AT mode B is a screen suggesting settings 4-6. In the AT mode B, the default screen B should normally be displayed, but when the default screen A is displayed, the default screen B is displayed in the AT mode B is broken. Therefore, the display of the default screen A in the AT mode B is called rule breaking.

The second high setting suggestion screen is more likely to be displayed when the settings are 4-6 than when the settings are 1-3. Therefore, the second high setting suggestion screen is a screen that suggests settings 4-6. The second high setting suggestion screen is a screen in which the default screen B is overlaid with an additional image.

The third high setting suggestion screen is displayed only when the settings are 4-6. Therefore, the third high setting suggestion screen is a screen for notifying that the settings 4 to 6 are confirmed. The third high setting suggestion screen is a screen in which an additional image is superimposed on the first high setting suggestion screen. Note that, in the present embodiment, the third high setting suggestion screen is a screen common to the AT mode A and the AT mode B. FIG.

[About AT ending screen display processing]
The AT ending screen display process (Sp7) in the timer interrupt process (sub) will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 9, in the AT ending screen display process, the sub-controller 91 determines whether or not the third stop operation has been performed based on a command from the main controller 41 (Sc1).

If the third stop operation has not been performed, the process ends. When the third stop operation is performed, it is determined whether or not AT is finished in the game (Sc2). If the AT does not end, the process ends.

When the AT ends, a screen selection lottery is executed to select which of a plurality of types of ending screens is to be displayed (Sc3). Then, the ending screen selected by the screen selection lottery is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 (Sc4). The displayed ending screen ends when the number of bets is set.

[Regarding the selection rate of the ending screen]
Next, the selection rate of the ending screen in the screen selection lottery of Sc3 in FIG. 9 will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 10(a), when AT mode A is set to 1 to 3, the default screen A is 85%, the first high setting suggesting screen is 5%, and the default screen B (that is, occurrence of rule failure). is selected at a rate of 5%, the second high setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 5%, and the third high setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 0%.

Also, when AT mode A is set to 4 to 6, the default screen A is 70%, the first high setting suggestion screen is 8%, the default screen B (that is, the occurrence of rule breakage) is 8%, and the second high setting. 8% of the screens overlaid with suggested screens are selected, and the third high setting suggested screen is selected at a rate of 6%.

As shown in FIG. 10(b), when AT mode B is set to settings 1 to 3, the default screen B is 85%, the first high setting suggestion screen is 5%, and the default screen A (that is, occurrence of rule failure). is selected at a rate of 5%, the second high setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 5%, and the third high setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 0%.

Also, when AT mode B is set to 4 to 6, the default screen B is 70%, the first high setting suggestion screen is 8%, the default screen A (that is, the occurrence of rule breakage) is 8%, and the second high setting. The suggested screen is selected at a rate of 8% and the third high setting suggested screen at a rate of 6%.

[About AT's ending screen]
Next, a specific example of the AT ending screen will be described. 11 shows the AT mode A ending screen, and FIG. 12 shows the AT mode B ending screen.

As shown in FIG. 11A, the default screen A (200) of AT mode A is less likely to be displayed with settings 4-6 than with settings 1-3. In the default screen A (200) of AT mode A, a background 100a with a rural landscape as a motif is displayed. Then, a naked character A (101) wearing nothing is displayed in the approximate center of the screen. Character A (101) uses blue as a motif color for its body and face. In addition, the default screen A (200) uses blue as the motif color, and the entire screen contains a large amount of blue. In addition, an acquired number display 103 that can specify the number of medals acquired in the finished AT is displayed in the upper left part of the screen, and a total acquired number display 104 including the number of medals acquired in the additional AT Acquisition number in the AT that has been done) is displayed in the upper part of the screen, substantially in the center. Further, when the default screen A (200) is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 remains on.

As shown in FIG. 11B, the first high setting suggestion screen 201 for AT mode A is more likely to be displayed for settings 4-6 than for settings 1-3. Therefore, it can be said that the first high setting suggesting screen 201 suggests that the setting is more advantageous than the default screen A (200). In the first high setting suggestion screen 201 of AT mode A, a background 100b different from the default screen A (200) is displayed. In addition to character A (101) displayed on default screen A (200), character C (105) and character D (106) are also displayed. Character A (101), character C (105), and character D (106) wear clothes and hats with different patterns. Gold is used as a motif color for the body and face of character A (101), character C (105), and character D (106). Also, the display position of the character A (101) is the same position as the default screen A (200). Also, the obtained number display 103 and the total obtained number display 104 are displayed side by side in two rows on the upper right side of the screen. That is, it is displayed at a different position from the default screen A (200). The display of the number of obtained coins and the display of the total number of obtained coins are displayed in the same color as the default screen A (200). Effect displays for emphasizing character A (101), character C (105) and character D (106) are displayed around character A (101), character C (105) and character D (106). 107 is displayed. The color of the effect display 107 is gold, which is different from the blue used as the motif in the default screen A (200). Character A (101) is displayed in a smaller size than default screen A (200), and character C (105) and character D (106) are also the same size as character A (101). Further, when the first high setting suggestion screen 201 is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off. Note that the effect display 107 may be different from the present embodiment, such as changing the color of the background or the color of characters indicating the character name. Note that the display position of the character A (101) may not be the same position as the default screen A (200), but may be a similar position.

As shown in FIG. 11(c), the second high setting suggestion screen 202 for AT mode A is more likely to be displayed for settings 4-6 than for settings 1-3. Therefore, it can be said that the second high setting suggesting screen 202 suggests that the setting is more advantageous than the default screen A (200). A second high setting suggestion screen 202 for AT mode A is a screen in which an additional image 108 is superimposed on the default screen A (200). The additional image 108 is an image of a star. The second high setting suggestion screen 202 is displayed by superimposing the additional image 108 on the default screen A (200) after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the default screen A (200) was first displayed. The additional image 108 is displayed at a position where the character A (101) is not displayed. Further, when the second high setting suggestion screen 202 is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off.

As shown in FIG. 11(d), the default screen B (203) in AT mode B is more likely to be displayed in AT mode A with settings 4-6 than with settings 1-3. Therefore, it can be said that the default screen B (203) in the AT mode A is set more advantageous than the default screen A (200). Further, when the default screen B (203) is displayed in the AT mode A, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off. A specific aspect of the default screen B will be described later with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 11(e), the third high setting suggestion screen 204 for AT mode A is a screen that is selected only for settings 4-6. Therefore, it can be said that the third high setting suggesting screen 204 suggests that the settings are more advantageous than the default screen A (200). A third high setting suggestion screen 204 for AT mode A is a screen in which an additional image 108 is superimposed on the first high setting suggestion screen 201 . The additional image 108 is an image of a star.

Then, a naked character B (102) wearing nothing is displayed in the approximate center of the screen. Character B (102) uses blue as a motif color for its body and face. In addition, the default screen B (203) uses blue as the motif color, and the entire screen contains a large amount of blue. In addition, an acquired number display 103 that can specify the number of medals acquired in the finished AT is displayed in the upper left part of the screen, and a total acquired number display 104 including the number of medals acquired in the additional AT Acquisition number in the AT that has been done) is displayed in the upper part of the screen, substantially in the center. Further, when the default screen B (203) is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 remains on.

As shown in FIG. 12B, the first high setting suggestion screen 205 for AT mode B is more likely to be displayed for settings 4-6 than for settings 1-3. Therefore, it can be said that the first high setting suggestion screen 205 suggests that the settings are more advantageous than the default screen B (203). In the first high setting suggestion screen 205 of AT mode B, a background 100b different from the default screen B (203) is displayed. In addition to character B (102) displayed on default screen B (203), character C (105) and character D (106) are also displayed. Character B (102), character C (105), and character D (106) wear clothes and hats with different patterns. Gold is used as a motif color for the body and face of character B (102), character C (105), and character D (106). Also, the display position of the character B (102) is the same position as the default screen B (203). Also, the obtained number display 103 and the total obtained number display 104 are displayed side by side in two rows on the upper right side of the screen. That is, it is displayed at a different position from the default screen B (203). It should be noted that the acquired number display and the total acquired number display are in the same color (same color) as the display color in the default screen B (203). Effect displays for emphasizing character B (102), character C (105) and character D (106) are displayed around character B (102), character C (105) and character D (106). 107 is displayed. The color of the effect display 107 is gold, which is different from the blue used as the motif in the default screen A (200). Character B (102) is displayed in a smaller size than default screen B (203), and character C (105) and character D (106) are also the same size as character B (102). Further, when the first high setting suggestion screen 201 is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off. Note that the effect display 107 may be different from the present embodiment, such as changing the color of the background or the color of characters indicating the character name. Note that the display position of the character B (102) may not be the same position as the default screen B (203), but may be a similar position.

As shown in FIG. 12(c), the second high setting suggestion screen 206 for AT mode B is more likely to be displayed for settings 4-6 than for settings 1-3. Therefore, it can be said that the second high setting suggestion screen 206 suggests that the settings are more advantageous than the default screen B (203). A second high setting suggestion screen 206 for AT mode B is a screen in which an additional image 108 is superimposed on the default screen B (203). The additional image 108 is an image of a star. The second high setting suggestion screen 206 is displayed by superimposing the additional image 108 on the default screen B (203) after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the default screen B (203) was first displayed. The additional image 108 is displayed at a position where the character B (102) is not displayed. Further, when the second high setting suggestion screen 202 is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off.

As shown in FIG. 12(d), default screen A (200) in AT mode A is more likely to be displayed in AT mode B with settings 4-6 than with settings 1-3. Therefore, it can be said that the default screen A (200) in the AT mode B is set more advantageous than the default screen B (203). Further, when the default screen B (203) is displayed in the AT mode B, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off. A specific aspect of the default screen B will be described later with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIG. 12(e), the third high setting suggestion screen 207 for AT mode B is a screen that is selected only for settings 4-6. Therefore, it can be said that the third high setting suggesting screen 207 suggests that the settings are more advantageous than the default screen B (203). A third high setting suggestion screen 207 of AT mode B is a screen in which an additional image 108 is superimposed on the first high setting suggestion screen 205 . The additional image 108 is an image of a star. The third high setting suggesting screen 204 is displayed by superimposing the additional image 108 on the first high setting suggesting screen 205 after a predetermined period of time has passed after the first high setting suggesting screen 205 is first displayed. . The additional image 108 is displayed at a position where each character is not displayed. Further, when the third high setting suggestion screen 207 is displayed, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is turned off.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when comparing FIGS. 11A and 11B, and between FIGS. 12A and 12B, the screen displaying the image suggesting the low setting is the character It includes default screen A (200) including A (101) and default screen B (203) including character B (102). The screen displaying the image suggesting the high setting is similar to the first high setting suggesting screen 201 including the character A (101) wearing the hat and the clothes, although the pattern is different from that of the character A (101) wearing the hat and the clothes. and a first high setting suggestion screen 205 including the character B (102) in the mode of doing so.

In this embodiment, in both AT mode A and AT mode B, character A and character B are smaller than default screen A and default screen B in first high setting suggestion screen 201 and first high setting suggestion screen 205. Although they are displayed in size, character A and character B may be displayed in sizes larger than default screen A and default screen B in first high setting suggestion screen 201 and first high setting suggestion screen 205 . In either case, it is possible to make it easier for the player to recognize that the same character is displayed but the screen is of a different type.

In addition, in the present embodiment, one type of first high setting suggestion screen 201 and first high setting suggestion screen 205 are provided in AT mode A and AT mode B, respectively. Each may be configured to suggest different content. For example, a plurality of types of first high setting suggesting screens are provided, and the first high setting suggesting screen displaying the first image among the plurality of types of first high setting suggesting screens suggests that the even setting is set, and the second image is displayed. The first high setting suggestion screen displaying is configured to suggest an odd number setting. Further, for example, a plurality of types of first high setting suggesting screens are provided, and the first high setting suggesting screen displaying the first image among the plurality of types of first high setting suggesting screens suggests settings 4 to 6. , the first high setting suggestion screen displaying the second image may be configured to suggest that setting 6 is finalized. As for the default screen A and the default screen B, it is preferable to configure the default screen A and the default screen B so that even when a plurality of types of these screens are provided, the ratio of suggested setting values and suggested setting values are not different for any of the screens. Further, it is also possible to provide a plurality of types of second high setting suggestion screens and third high setting screens and configure them in the same manner.

In addition, when no setting value is suggested in a specific situation, it is possible to configure so that the setting value is suggested at a higher rate than before the setting value is not suggested. is. Specifically, the default screen A for AT mode A is selected at the same rate regardless of the setting value, and the default screen B for AT mode B is selected at the same rate regardless of the setting value. do. Then, when the default screen A is displayed in the AT mode A, the display ratio of the first high setting suggesting image and the second high setting suggesting image is made higher than before the display. Further, when the default screen B is displayed in the AT mode B, an example can be given in which the display ratio of the first high setting suggesting image and the second high setting suggesting image is higher than before the display.

After the default screen due to rule violation is displayed, the default screen due to rule violation can be displayed at a higher rate than before the default screen due to rule violation is displayed. For example, when the default screen B is displayed in the AT mode A, the default screen B is displayed more often in the AT mode A than before the default screen B is displayed in the AT mode A. can be mentioned. The same applies to AT mode B as well.

In the present embodiment, in both AT mode A and AT mode B, control is performed to the same state (CZ) in the advantageous section. good too. For example, after the AT mode A is finished, the AT low probability state (so-called normal state) is controlled, and after the AT mode B is finished, the AT high probability state is set. With this configuration, when the default screen B is displayed, a high probability state can be expected after the end of AT. can be expected at high settings. Therefore, the player's attention can be drawn to the fact that the default screen B is displayed.

[Regarding the battle production of the special zone]

[Regarding the modification of the selection rate of the ending screen]
Next, a modified example of the selection rate of the ending screen in the screen selection lottery of Sc3 in FIG. 9 will be described with reference to FIG. In this modified example, the default screen has the same ratio regardless of the setting value, and furthermore, in addition to the screen shown in the example in FIG. It is possible to display an even or odd setting suggesting screen. After that, the selection ratio is set as follows.

As shown in FIG. 18A, when AT mode A is set to settings 1 to 3, the default screen A is 70%, the first high setting suggestion screen is 3%, and the default screen B of AT mode B (so-called rule Occurrence of collapse) is selected at a rate of 3%, a screen in which the second high setting suggestion screen is superimposed on the default screen A is 3%, a third high setting suggestion screen is 0%, and an even or odd setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 21%. be.

Also, when AT mode A is set to 4 to 6, the default screen A is 70%, the first high setting suggestion screen is 5%, the default screen B of AT mode B (so-called rule breakage) is 5%, A screen in which the second high setting suggestion screen is superimposed on the default screen A is selected at a rate of 5%, a third high setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 8%, and an even or odd setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 7%.

As shown in FIG. 18(b), when setting 1 to 3 in AT mode B, the default screen B is 70%, the first high setting suggestion screen is 3%, and the default screen A of AT mode A (so-called rule Occurrence of collapse) is selected at a rate of 3%, a screen in which the second high setting suggestion screen is superimposed on the default screen A is 3%, a third high setting suggestion screen is 0%, and an even or odd setting suggestion screen is selected at a rate of 21%. be.

[Others and modifications]

[About favorable conditions]
In the above embodiment, as an advantageous state, AT was taken as an example, but for example, slot machines have bonuses, ART, RT, CT, and pachinko machines have jackpots, probability variable states, time saving states, etc., which differ from the above embodiments. The situation may be favorable.

[Regarding decisions related to favorable conditions]
In the above embodiment, the determination of whether or not to add AT is taken as an example of the determination related to the advantageous state. The determination may be an advantageous determination. In this case, when a specific right or a predetermined right is granted, the continuation rate of the advantageous state is increased. Specifically, for example, when the advantageous state ends, a continuation effect for determining whether or not to continue the advantageous state is executed. Then, when a predetermined entry condition is satisfied during the continuous performance, the continuous performance is interrupted to rush into a continuation rate specialized zone for determining whether or not to increase the continuation rate of the advantageous state. In the continuation rate specialized zone, an extension lottery for the continuation rate specialized zone and a lottery for granting a specific right or a predetermined right are executed. That is, when the continuation rate specialized zone is extended, the specific right and the predetermined right are likely to be granted, and the advantageous state is likely to continue. Here, it is assumed that the continuation rate of the advantageous state is set to 50% and the rate of entry into the continuation rate specialized zone is set to 3% before the specific right is granted. Then, when the specific right is granted in the continuation rate specialized zone, thereafter, the continuation rate of the advantageous state is set to 80% until the end of the advantageous section, and the entry rate to the continuation rate specialized zone is set to 5%. Further, when the predetermined right is granted, the continuation rate of the advantageous state is set to 80% only in the continuous performance interrupted when entering the continuation rate specialized zone to which the predetermined right is granted.

[Regarding specific rights]
In the above embodiment, by granting physical strength by leveling up the ally character as a specific right, the degree of AT addition expectation was increased. A decision different from the above embodiment is made when a specific right is granted, such as increasing the round continuation rate of all rounds in a pachinko machine that performs a continuous lottery for rounds, or increasing the probability of consecutive wins in a pachinko machine. You can take advantage of it.
[Suggestive effect suggesting that specific rights have been granted]
In the above embodiment, characters indicating that the friendly character has leveled up are displayed as a suggestive effect suggesting that the specific right has been granted. A mode of production different from the above-described embodiment may be provided, such as suggestion based on the opponent of the battle production or content.

[Regarding prescribed rights]
In the above-described embodiment, by increasing the physical strength of the ally character as a predetermined right, the degree of AT addition expectation is increased. When a predetermined right is granted, such as increasing the round continuation rate of a specific round in a pachinko game machine that performs continuous lottery, a decision different from the above-described embodiment may be advantageous.

[Regarding specific conditions]
In the above embodiment, the additional special zone was taken as an example of the specific state, but for example, a state with different contents from the above embodiment, such as a high probability state in which the probability of being controlled to an advantageous state increases, may be the specific state. .

[About advantages]
In the above embodiment, the set value is used as an example of the advantage, but the advantage can be, for example, the continuation rate of the advantageous state, the addition of the control period of the advantageous state, the increase in the type of effects, and the state in which the premium effect is likely to appear. A different advantage from the above-described embodiment, such as transition to . The continuation rate of an advantageous state includes, for example, the continuation rate of AT, ART, and bonuses in slot machines, and the round continuation rate of jackpots in pachinko gaming machines.

[Regarding Situation 1 and Situation 2]
In the above-described embodiment, the AT mode A and the AT mode B, which have different presentation modes, are given as examples of the first situation and the second situation. ART, BB and RB, BB and RT, RB and RT, AT, etc., with different numbers of consecutive shots (first AT and second AT due to consecutive shots, etc.). The first situation and the second situation may be situations different from the above embodiment, such as the round start screen, the jackpot and the variable probability state, the jackpot and the time saving state, the probability variable state and the time saving state.

[Regarding specific situations]
In the above embodiment, AT is taken as an example of the specific situation, but for slot machines, for example, bonuses, ART, RT, and CT, and for pachinko machines, jackpots, probability-variable states, time-saving states, etc. are different from the above embodiments. A situation may be a specific situation.

[About suggestive control]
In the above embodiment, the display of the screen by the liquid crystal display 51 was taken as an example of the suggestive control. Flashing and extinguishing of the lamp, image display by the transmissive liquid crystal display (liquid crystal display configured so that the reel can be seen) placed on the front side of the reel, vibration of the operation means, temperature change, etc. You may perform suggestive control of the aspect different from.
For example, the first situation is when the first symbol is tense, and the first tenpai sound is output when the first symbol is tense. Further, when the second pattern is tense, it is set as the second situation, and when the second pattern is tense, the second tenpai sound is output. Then, when performing the first suggestion control, a tenpai sound is output to suggest that the setting is advantageous in both the first situation and the second situation. Further, when performing the second suggestive control, it is suggested that the setting is advantageous by outputting the second tenpai sound when the first pattern is tenpai. Furthermore, when performing the second suggestion control, it is suggested that the setting is advantageous by outputting the first tenpai sound when the second symbol is tenpai.

[Suggestion by Suggestion Control]
In the above embodiment, the suggestion control suggests which of settings 1-3 and settings 4-6. (Suggestion of confirmation of setting 6, etc.), suggestion of continuation rate of advantageous state, etc., may be made to suggest content different from that of the above-described embodiment.

[Regarding the first specific mode and the second specific mode of the second type of image]
In the above-described embodiment, as an example in which the first specific mode and the second specific mode are common, the example in which the naked character wears a hat or clothes is common. The character after transformation is common to the characters, or the character in childhood is common to the adult character, or the robot character before coalescence or transformation is after coalescence or transformation. The method of making the first specific mode and the second specific mode common, such as the common mode of the character, may be a method different from the above-described embodiment. In other words, when the first specific mode and the second specific mode are common, it can be said that the attribute to which the first character and the second character belong is common.

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

(1-1) In the present embodiment, the physical strength imparted by leveling up the friendly character in the battle effect of the special zone does not disappear until the advantageous section ends (in this example, in Sb4 of FIGS. 3 and 7). the part that does the processing).
Therefore, since the player expects more that physical strength will be given by leveling up the ally character, the interest in the game can be enhanced.

(1-2) In the present embodiment, when the ally character has been granted physical strength by leveling up, a suggestion effect is executed to suggest that effect (in this example, the portion shown in FIG. 16(d)).
Therefore, it is possible to make the player feel a sense of anticipation because it is known that physical strength is given by the level-up of the ally character.

(1-3) In the present embodiment, it is possible to give physical strength by the physical strength increase lottery, and the physical strength given by the physical strength increase lottery disappears based on the fact that the additional lottery is performed (in this example, FIG. 3, 17).
Therefore, the player expects that the physical strength will be given by the physical strength increase lottery, and the interest in the game can be enhanced.

(1-4) In this embodiment, it is possible to specify whether physical strength is given by leveling up the ally character or whether physical strength is given by a physical strength increase lottery (in this example, as shown in FIGS. 16 and 17). part shown).
Therefore, it is possible to know which one has been granted, and to make the player feel a sense of expectation.

(1-5) In the present embodiment, when the ally character has been granted physical strength by leveling up, the probability of being controlled to the additional specialized zone increases (in this example, the processing of Sa7 and Sa16 in FIG. 6 is performed). part).
Therefore, the player's interest can be enhanced.

(1-6) In the present embodiment, the physical strength of the friendly character is given in the additional specialized zone (in this example, the portions shown in FIGS. 3 and 16).
Therefore, it is possible to attract the player's attention to the control of the special addition zone.

(1-7) In this embodiment, when a predetermined period of time elapses after the end of the AT, the advantageous section ends, and if the friendly character has leveled up in the previous AT, even the AT controlled again in the same advantageous section (In this example, the portion shown in FIG. 3).
Therefore, it is possible to draw the player's attention to being controlled by the AT again within a predetermined period of time.

(1-8) In the present embodiment, the first change control (in this example, the portion that performs the processing of Sa10 in FIG. 6) for changing the end condition of the AT so as to lengthen the AT in the special add-on zone; A second change control (in this example, the part that performs the processing of Sa9 in FIG. 6) for changing the end condition of the add-on specialization zone so that the add-on specialization zone is longer, and the addition in AT after the end of the add-on specialization zone A third change control (in this example, the part that performs the processing of Sa14 in FIG. 6) that facilitates control by the specialized zone can be executed.
Therefore, it is possible to draw attention to the continuation of the additional specialized zone.

(1-9) In this embodiment, when the second change control is performed, the first change control is possible (in this example, the portion where the processing of Sa9 and Sa10 in FIG. 6 is performed).
Therefore, it is possible to draw attention to the continuation of the additional specialized zone.

(1-10) In the present embodiment, the first change control is always performed when the second change control is performed (in this example, the portion performing the processing of Sa9 and Sa10 in FIG. 6).

(1-11) In this embodiment, when the second change control is performed, the third change control is possible (in this example, the part where the processing of Sa14 in FIG. 6 is performed).
Therefore, it is possible to draw attention to the continuation of the additional specialized zone.

(1-12) In the present embodiment, the execution status of the first to third change controls is notified when the additional specialization zone ends (in this example, (d) in FIG. 14 and (e) in FIG. 15). ), (d) of FIG. 16, and (e) of FIG. 17).
It is possible to make it easier to understand how advantageous it is in the additional special zone.

(1-13) In the present embodiment, after notifying that the AT will be added, it is notified that it is easier to be controlled in the special addition zone (in this example, (d) and (i) in FIG. 16 are part shown).
It is possible to make it easier to understand how advantageous it is in the additional special zone.

(1-14) In this embodiment, when notifying that the third change control is to be performed, it is possible to notify according to the player's operation.
Therefore, it is possible to increase the interest in the game.

(2-1) In the present embodiment, the first effect (in this example, the first high Setting suggestion screen display) and AT mode B, the execution ratio is the same regardless of the setting value, or the execution ratio becomes lower when the setting value becomes advantageous, but AT mode A is advantageous. When the settings are 4 to 6, it is possible to execute the second suggestion control (in this example, FIG. 10, FIG. 11 , the portion shown in FIG.
Therefore, the presence of suggestive control that is easy for the player to understand and suggestive control that is difficult for the player to understand can attract the player's attention to the performance.

(2-2) In the present embodiment, the lamp 60 provided near the liquid crystal display 51 is extinguished while an image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 by the first suggestion control and the second suggestion control. 11(b)-(d) and FIGS. 12(b)-(d)).
Therefore, the image displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 can be highlighted.
