Incidentally, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is provided with game components such as nails (game nails) and windmills for changing the behavior of the game balls flowing down the game area 21 .

Next, in this embodiment, the path along which the game ball flows will be described.
The pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment configured as described above has a plurality of paths in the game area 21 as the paths along which the game balls flow, depending on the shooting intensity of the game balls. The route along which the game ball flows can also be grasped as an area in which the game ball flows. In this embodiment, the plurality of routes include a first route R1 passing through the left side of the center frame 23 (effect display device 25) and leading to the outlet 34, and the right side of the center frame 23 (effect display device 25). There is a second route R2 through which the out port 34 is reached. The first route R1 and the second route R2 may partially overlap or may not overlap entirely.

In the following description, a region located on the left side of the center line CL that bisects the game area 21 horizontally when the game board 20 is viewed from the front is referred to as a left region R1a, and is located on the right side of the center line CL. The region to be oriented may be indicated as a right region R2a. The route that flows down the left region R1a corresponds to the first route R1, and the route that flows down the right region R2a corresponds to the second route R2. The left region R1a is a region near the guide passage 21a, and conversely, the right region R2a is a region away from the guide passage 21a.

Then, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the player operates the shooting handle 16 to adjust the shooting intensity of the game ball, thereby dividing the game ball into the left region R1a and the right region R2a. A game ball can enter the starting port 26 , the second starting port 27 , the big winning port 29 or the gate 31 . Specifically, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, when the game ball is shot by adjusting the shooting intensity to a stronger value (so-called right-handed hitting), the game ball is likely to flow down and guided to the right region R2a. 2 There is a possibility that the ball enters the starting hole 27, the big winning hole 29, or the gate 31. On the other hand, when the game ball is shot by adjusting the shooting intensity to be weaker (so-called left-handed hitting), the game ball is likely to flow down and guided to the left region R1a, and may enter the first start port 26. . Therefore, in the present embodiment, it can be said that there is the first starting port 26 on the first route R1. Further, in the present embodiment, it can be said that there are the second starting port 27, the big prize winning port 29, and the gate 31 on the second route R2.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when the game ball flows down on the first route R1, compared to the case where it flows down on the second route R2, the second starting port 27, the big winning port 29, and the gate Possibility of entering 31 is low. Also, when the game ball flows down the second route R2, it is less likely to enter the first start hole 26 than when it flows down the first route R1. In the following description, among the game ball launch intensity, the launch intensity at which the game ball is launched so as to flow down the first route R1 is referred to as the first launch intensity, and the game ball flows down the second route R2. The firing intensity emitted in this manner is referred to as a second firing intensity. Also, shooting a game ball with the first firing intensity may be indicated as "left hitting", and shooting a game ball with the second firing strength may be indicated as "right hitting".

The pachinko gaming machine 10 has a plurality of states (hereinafter referred to as "probability states") in which the probability of winning a big win in a winning lottery (hereinafter referred to as "big win probability") is determined. The plurality of probability states includes a low-probability state and a high-probability state. The high-probability state is a probability state with a higher jackpot probability than the low-probability state. A high probability state is advantageous to the player. The high-probability state is a so-called "variable probability state (variable probability state)".

The high-probability state is provided, for example, until the next big-hit game is provided, or the special game of the probability variable upper limit number of times is executed after the high-probability state is provided. That is, in the high-probability state, the execution of the special game of the probability variable upper limit number of times is controlled as the upper limit. Then, when the special game of the probability variable upper limit number of times is executed in the high probability state, the game is controlled to the low probability state. In this embodiment, there is one type of probability variation upper limit number. For example, the probability variation upper limit number is 100 times. In addition, in the case of the pachinko gaming machine 10 capable of executing the first special game and the second special game, the variable probability upper limit number is the total number of times of the first special game and the second special game.

The pachinko gaming machine 10 has a plurality of states in which the ball entry rate to the second start port 27 is determined (hereinafter referred to as ball entry rate state). The plurality of ball-entering rate states include a low ball-entering rate state and a high ball-entering rate state. The high ball-entering rate state is a state in which the probability of a game ball entering the second starting hole 27 (hereinafter referred to as the ball-entering rate) is higher than that in the low ball-entering rate state. The high ball entry rate state is advantageous for the player.

For example, the high ball entry rate state can be realized by performing one control arbitrarily selected from the three controls described below, or by performing a combination of a plurality of controls. The first control is normal symbol variation time shortening control for shortening the variation time of the normal game as compared to when the ball entry rate is low. The second control is normal symbol probability variation control for varying the probability of winning the normal winning lottery (normal winning probability) to a higher probability than in the low ball entry rate state. The third control is open time extension control that makes the total open time of the first variable member 28 in one normal winning game longer than in the low ball entry rate state. In addition, as the opening time extension control, the number of times of opening the first variable member 28 in one normal winning game is increased more than when the ball entering rate state is low, and the first variable member 28 in the normal winning game It is preferable to perform at least one control of making the opening time for one time longer than in the low ball entry rate state.

Further, the high ball entry rate state in this embodiment is realized by combining the fourth control described below. The fourth control is special game variation time shortening control that makes the variation time of the special game (for example, average variation time) more likely to be shorter than in the low ball entry rate state. The high pitch rate state is a so-called "fluctuation time reduction state". In the following description, a high ball-entering rate state may be indicated as a time-saving state, and a low ball-entering rate state may be indicated as a non-time-saving state. In the pachinko game machine 10 of the present embodiment, while it is recommended to flow the game ball to the first route R1 corresponding to the first flow direction when it is in the non-time saving state, when it is in the time saving state, in the second flow direction It is recommended to let the game ball flow down to the corresponding second route R2.

For example, the time saving state is provided until the next big hit game is provided, or the special game of the prescribed upper limit number of times is executed after the time saving state is provided. That is, in the time-saving state, the execution of the special game of the prescribed upper limit number of times is controlled as the upper limit. And in this embodiment, it is controlled by the non-time-saving state triggered by the special game of the prescribed upper limit number of times being performed in the time-saving state.

For example, the first normal winning game, the second normal winning game, the first specific winning game, and the second specific winning game are all set to "10 seconds" as the ending time. For each jackpot game, an arbitrary number of times may be set as the upper limit of the number of round games, an arbitrary time may be set as the opening time, and an arbitrary time may be set as the ending time. may have been

In addition, for each big win, a game state after the end of the big win game is determined.
As shown in FIG. 4, in the first normal win, it is determined that the first time-saving state is given until the first special game is completed or the next big win game is given. there is In addition, it is determined that the first normal win is given a low probability state until the next big win game is given. That is, it is determined that the first normal win is controlled to the first low-probability time-saving state until the next big win game is given or the first special game is finished.

For the second normal win, it is determined that the first time-saving state is given until the third special game is finished or the next big win game is given. In addition, it is determined that the second normal win is given a low probability state until the next big win game is given.

Next, a description will be given of the effect symbol variation game using the effect symbols (hereinafter referred to as "effect symbol").
The display effect that can be executed by the effect display device 25 in the present embodiment includes a effect pattern variation game (hereinafter referred to as "effect game") in which the effect symbols are variably displayed in a plurality of rows, and finally the combination of the effect symbols is fixed and displayed. ”). As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment is configured to be able to execute a performance game using performance symbols.

The effect pattern is a pattern in which a character is decorated, and is for diversifying the display effect. The production design is also called "decoration design" or "decoration design". In the present embodiment, the effect game is performed by vertically variably displaying (scrolling) the pattern columns of the first, second, and third columns. The performance symbols in the first row are so-called first symbols, the performance symbols in the second row are so-called second symbols, and the performance symbols in the third row are so-called third symbols. In the following description, the "first column" is indicated as "left column", the "first pattern" is indicated as "left pattern", the "second column" is indicated as "middle column", and the "second pattern" is indicated. The "middle pattern" is indicated, the "third row" is indicated as the "right row", and the "third pattern" is indicated as the "right pattern". In the present embodiment, in each row, performance symbols including images imitating Arabic numerals [1] to [8] are variably displayed in a predetermined order.

The production game is played in conjunction with the special game. Specifically, the effect game is started with the start of the special game and ended with the end of the special game. Thus, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured to be able to execute the effect game while the special game is being executed. Then, in the effect game, the symbol combination of the effect symbols corresponding to the special symbols to be determined and stopped displayed in the special game is determined and stopped. In the special game, when the big-hit symbols are fixed and stopped displayed, the big-hit symbol combination of the production symbols is fixed and stopped-displayed in the effect game. For example, the big hit pattern combination by the production pattern is a pattern combination such as "777" in which the production patterns of all rows are the same. It should be noted that there may be a plurality of types of pattern combinations for big hits based on production patterns. For example, when the normal winning symbols are fixed and stopped in the special game, the normal winning symbol combination based on the performance symbols may be fixed and stopped in the effect game. On the other hand, when the specific winning symbols are fixed and stopped displayed in the special game, the specific winning symbol combination by the production symbols may be fixed and stopped displayed in the effect game. As an example, the normal winning symbol combination by the performance symbols is a symbol combination (for example, “222”) in which the performance symbols of all rows are the same even number of performance symbols. Further, as an example, the pattern combination for a specific per performance pattern is a pattern combination (for example, "777") in which the performance symbols of all rows are the same odd number of performance symbols.

Further, in the special game, when the time-saving winning design is fixed and stopped displayed, in the production game, the time-saving winning design based on the production design is fixedly and stopped displayed. For example, the time saving per pattern by the production pattern is a pattern combination such as "123", "112", etc., in which at least some rows of production symbols are different from other rows of production symbols. Further, in the special game, when the winning symbols are determined and stopped displayed, in the performance game, the winning symbols due to the performance symbols are determined and stopped. For example, the missing design by the performance design is a design combination such as "323", "556", "426", etc., in which at least some of the performance designs are different from the performance designs of the other rows. In addition, part or all of the time-saving hit design by the production design and the winning design by the production design may be the same, or may be different. In the effect game, the effect symbols are temporarily stopped and displayed before being fixed and stopped. In this specification, "temporary stop display" means a state indicating that there is a possibility that the pattern may be displayed again in a variable manner, such as a "fluctuation state", or a state indicating that the pattern is different from the fixed stop display. .

In the effect game, the ready-to-win effect is performed when the display mode of the effect pattern is the ready-to-win mode (when the ready-to-win is formed). In the reach mode, a specific column (in this embodiment, the left column and the right column) of a plurality of columns is temporarily displayed with a production pattern imitating the same number, and a column different from the specific column (this In the embodiment, it is a state in which the production pattern of the middle row) is continuously displayed in a variable manner. Further, for example, the ready-to-win effect may include a plurality of types of ready-to-reach effects in which characters to appear are different. For example, ready-to-win effects include a normal ready-to-win effect and a super ready-to-win effect that is performed after the start of the normal ready-to-win effect. The super ready-to-win effect is executed, for example, by developing the effect contents of the normal ready-to-win effect.

The RAM clear switch 43f is a switch operated when instructing initialization of at least part of the memory contents of the main control RAM 40c. The RAM clear switch 43f is a switch that is operated when instructing initialization of at least part of the memory contents of the overall control RAM 41c. When power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 10 is started while the RAM clear switch 43f is operated, an initialization signal is transmitted from the RAM clear switch circuit 43e. The initialization signal is sent to the main control CPU 40a and the overall control CPU 41a. The RAM clear switch 43f is arranged at a position where the player cannot operate it, such as inside the machine or on the back side of the machine. In the present embodiment, the power supply board 43 includes the RAM clear switch circuit 43e and the RAM clear switch 43f, but this is not restrictive, and the main board 40 may include, for example, the RAM clear switch circuit 43e. is preferably output to the main control CPU 40a.

Next, the main processing performed by the main control CPU 40a based on the main control program will be described. The main process is a process that is performed when power supply is started (power supply is started). Specifically, the main control CPU 40a performs main processing when the reset signal in the first state is input for a predetermined time or more and then the reset signal in the second state is input.

First, the main control CPU 40a performs various settings required when power supply is started. As various settings required at the start of power supply, the main control CPU 40a prohibits interruption of interrupt processing, permits access to a storage area built in the main control CPU 40a, and controls peripheral devices and watches of the main control CPU 40a. Initialize the dog timer. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a confirms whether the RAM clear switch 43f is operated based on whether or not the initialization signal is input from the RAM clear switch circuit 43e. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a determines whether an initialization signal instructing erasure of various control information stored in the main control RAM 40c has been input.

When the RAM clear switch 43f is not operated, the main control CPU 40a determines whether there is an abnormality in the control information (stored contents) stored in the main control RAM 40c. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a checks the backup flag stored in the main control RAM 40c when the power supply is interrupted, and determines whether the backup flag is normal. The backup flag is a flag for determining whether the information stored in the main control RAM 40c is correct when power supply is started. The main control CPU 40a also calculates the checksum of the main control RAM 40c and determines whether the calculated checksum matches the checksum value calculated when the power supply was cut off.

When the RAM clear switch 43f is operated, or when there is an abnormality in the information stored in the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a erases the backup information stored in the main control RAM 40c. Then, an initial activation process is performed to activate the pachinko gaming machine 10 based on the initial values. On the other hand, when the RAM clear switch 43f is not operated and there is no abnormality in the information stored in the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a starts the pachinko game machine 10 based on the set value of the backup information. Perform backup startup processing to

In the initial activation process, the main control CPU 40a initializes the contents stored in the main control RAM 40c. For example, the main control CPU 40a sets initial values, such as a stack pointer, in the main control RAM 40c. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a stores the control information regarding the initialization in the output buffer for the general board 41. FIG. Control information related to initialization includes an initialization command designating initialization. Next, the main control CPU 40a sets an interrupt interval timer (for example, 4 ms) and enables interrupts. Then, the main control CPU 40a ends the main processing. Thereafter, the main control CPU 40a performs interrupt processing at predetermined intervals. The control information (control command) stored in the output buffer by the main control CPU 40a is output to the general board 41 in subsequent interrupt processing. In the following description, the term "initialized with the start of power supply" means that the power supply is started and the initial start-up process is performed.

On the other hand, in the backup activation process, the main control CPU 40a restores the stack pointer before the power supply was interrupted. Next, the main control CPU 40a stores the control information regarding activation based on the backup information in the output buffer of the general board 41. FIG. The control information related to activation based on the backup information includes, for example, a return command specifying activation based on the backup information, and control of whether to return to the state in which the special game is being executed or to the state in which the jackpot game is being played. There are a symbol state designation command that designates a state, a game state designation command that designates a game state, and the like. It should be noted that the main control CPU 40a identifies the control state based on the backup information and generates a symbol state designation command. Also, the main control CPU 40a identifies the game state based on the backup information and generates a game state designation command. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a sets an interrupt interval timer (for example, 4 ms) and restores the register when the power supply was interrupted. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a restores the interrupt permission/non-permission (prohibition) to the state before the power supply was cut off, sets the address before the power supply is cut off, and returns to the set address. return. As a result, restoration based on the backup information is performed. Thereafter, the main control CPU 40a performs interrupt processing at predetermined intervals. In the following description, "when the power supply is restarted after being cut off" means the case where the power supply is started and the backup activation process is performed. Thus, the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment is configured to be able to return after the power supply is restarted after the power supply is interrupted.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 10 is interrupted (when the power supply is interrupted), the main control CPU 40a is triggered by the input of the power interruption signal from the power interruption monitoring circuit 43b. , the main control RAM 40c is backed up.

In the backup process, the main control CPU 40a causes the main control RAM 40c to store and hold information such as registers and stack pointers in addition to various information stored and held in the main control RAM 40c. Various types of information to be backed up include values of various random numbers (random number information to be described later), information capable of specifying game states, information capable of specifying control states (for example, control state flags indicating control states), and the like. The main control CPU 40a also calculates and stores a checksum in the main control RAM 40c, and sets a backup flag in the main control RAM 40c.

Thereafter, the main control CPU 40a prohibits access to the main control RAM 40c and waits until the reset signal in the first state is input. When the reset signal in the first state is input, the operation of the main control CPU 40a is restricted. After the power supply is interrupted, power is supplied from the backup power supply 43d to the main control RAM 40c, and when the power supply is interrupted, part or all of the information stored in the main control RAM 40c is backed up. Retained as information.

Next, special design input processing is explained. The special symbol input process is a process called in the interrupt process, and is performed by the main control CPU 40a at predetermined intervals.
As shown in FIG. 6, the main control CPU 40a determines whether a game ball has entered the first starting port 26 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the first starting sensor SE1 (step S101). When the game ball has not entered the first starting port 26 (step S101: NO), the main control CPU 40a proceeds to the process of step S106. On the other hand, when the game ball has entered the first starting port 26 (step S101: YES), the main control CPU 40a determines that the first special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c is the upper limit number (this implementation In the form, it is determined whether it is less than 4) (step S102). When the first special reservation number is not less than the upper limit number (step S102: NO), the main control CPU 40a proceeds to the process of step S106.

On the other hand, when the first special reservation number is less than the upper limit number (step S102: YES), the main control CPU 40a updates the first special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c by adding 1 (step S103). In the process of step S103, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 to display the updated first special reservation number. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as "first reservation number command") that can specify the updated first special reservation number in the output buffer.

Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a acquires random numbers generated in the main board 40, and stores random number information based on the acquired random numbers in the main control RAM 40c (step S104). For example, random numbers are random numbers used for winning lottery (hereinafter referred to as "winning lottery random numbers"), random numbers used to determine jackpot patterns (hereinafter referred to as "jackpot seed determination random numbers"), random numbers used to determine time-saving winning patterns (hereinafter referred to as "time saving pattern random number"), random number used to determine the variation pattern (hereinafter referred to as "variation pattern determination random number") and the like. In the process of step S104, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the first special game in the main control RAM 40c so that the storage order of the random number information can be specified. In this embodiment, by storing the random number information for the first special game in the main control RAM 40c, execution of the first special game is suspended until the conditions for executing the first special game are met. The random number information may be the acquired random number itself, or may be information obtained by processing the random number by a predetermined method. When the process of step S104 ends, the main control CPU 40a performs the look-ahead information generation process (step S105), and then proceeds to the process of step S106. The lookahead information generation processing in step S105 will be described later together with the lookahead information generation processing in step S110.

In the process of step S106, the main control CPU 40a determines whether a game ball has entered the second starting hole 27 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the second starting sensor SE2. When the game ball has not entered the second starting port 27 (step S106: NO), the main control CPU 40a terminates the special symbol input process. On the other hand, when the game ball has entered the second starting port 27 (step S106: YES), the main control CPU 40a determines that the second special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c is the upper limit number (this implementation In the form, it is determined whether it is less than 4) (step S107). If the second special reservation number is not less than the upper limit number (step S107: NO), the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process.

On the other hand, when the second special reservation number is less than the upper limit number (step S107: YES), the main control CPU 40a updates the second special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c by adding 1 (step S108). In the process of step S108, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated second special reservation number. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as "second reservation number command") that can specify the updated second special reservation number in the output buffer.

Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a acquires random numbers generated in the main substrate 40, and stores random number information based on the acquired random numbers in the main control RAM 40c (step S109). For example, the random number is a winning lottery random number, a jackpot seed determination random number, a time saving per pattern random number, a variation pattern determination random number, and the like. In the process of step S109, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the second special game in the main control RAM 40c so that the storage order of the random number information can be specified. In this embodiment, by storing the random number information for the second special game in the main control RAM 40c, execution of the second special game is suspended until the conditions for executing the second special game are met. When the process of step S109 ends, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process after performing the look-ahead information generation process (step S110).

Here, the prefetch information generation processing in steps S105 and S110 will be described. In the prefetch information generation process, a prefetch command is generated and stored in the output buffer.

In the look-ahead information generating process of step S105, the main control CPU 40a generates a look-ahead command that can be identified as a look-ahead command corresponding to the first special game based on the random number obtained in step S104. On the other hand, in the look-ahead information generating process of step S110, the main control CPU 40a generates a look-ahead command corresponding to the second special game based on the random number obtained in step S109.

In the look-ahead information generation process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the value of the acquired winning lottery random number is a value that will result in a big hit in either the low-probability state or the high-probability state (with a value that matches the common big-hit determination value If yes), generate the first prefetch command. In addition, in the look-ahead information generation process, the main control CPU 40a determines that the value of the acquired winning lottery random number is a value that will result in a big hit only in the high-probability state of the low-probability state and the high-probability state (high-probability jackpot determination value and match), generate a second lookahead command. In addition, in the look-ahead information generation process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the value of the acquired winning lottery random number is a value that does not result in a big hit in either the low-probability state or the high-probability state (common big-hit determination and high-accuracy big-hit If the value does not match the judgment value), a third prefetch command is generated. At this time, the main control CPU 40a generates a third prefetch command that can specify whether the value of the acquired winning lottery random number is a value that will be a time saving hit (whether it is a value that matches the time saving hit determination value) good too. The "acquired winning lottery random number" refers to the winning lottery random number acquired in step S104 in the look-ahead information generation process of step S105, and the winning lottery random number acquired in step S109 in the look-ahead information generation process of step S110. Say. In this embodiment, the look-ahead command is generated irrespective of the gaming state when the big win is won and the type of the big win.

Next, the special symbol start processing will be described. The special symbol start process is a process called in the interrupt process, and is performed by the main control CPU 40a at predetermined intervals.
As shown in FIG. 7, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the conditions for executing the special game are satisfied (step S201). In the process of step S201, the main control CPU 40a makes an affirmative determination if the big win game is not being played and the special game is not being executed, and makes a negative determination if the big win game is being played or the special game is being executed. When the special game execution condition is not satisfied (step S201: NO), the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol start process.

On the other hand, if the special game execution condition is satisfied (step S201: YES), the main control CPU 40a determines whether the second special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c is greater than zero ( step S202). When the second special reservation number is zero (step S202: NO), the main control CPU 40a determines whether the first special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c is greater than zero (step S203) . When the first special reservation number is zero (step S203: NO), the main control CPU 40a stores the standby command in the output buffer and ends the special symbol start process. If a new special game has not been executed since the standby command was stored in the output buffer last time, the main control CPU 40a does not store the standby command in the output buffer and ends the special symbol start process. The pachinko gaming machine 10 of this embodiment is in a standby state when the special game is not being executed and the jackpot game is not being played. The main control CPU 40a corresponds to standby state control means for controlling the standby state.

When the first special reservation number is greater than zero (step S203: YES), the main control CPU 40a updates the first special reservation number stored in the main control RAM 40c by subtracting 1 (step S204). In the process of step S204, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated first special reservation number is displayed. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a first reservation number command capable of specifying the updated first special reservation number. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the number of probability variations is greater than zero (step S205). The probability variable number is the difference between the probability variable upper limit number and the number of special games executed after being controlled to the high probability state. That is, the probability variable number is information that can specify the remaining number of special games that can be executed before being controlled from the high-probability state to the low-probability state. When the probability variation frequency is greater than zero (step S205: YES), the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the probability variation frequency and updates it (step S206). When the processing of step S206 ends, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the number of probability variations after subtraction in the processing of step S206 is zero (step S207). When the number of probability variations after subtraction in the process of step S206 is zero (step S207: YES), the main control CPU 40a controls to a low probability state (step S208). In the process of step S208, the main control CPU 40a stores control information that can specify the game state (hereinafter referred to as a game state designation command) in the output buffer. Further, the main control CPU 40a updates the probability information stored in the main control RAM 40c so that it can be specified that the current probability state is the low probability state. The probability information is information that can specify whether the current probability state is a low-probability state or a high-probability state.

If the probability variation count is zero in the processing of step S205 (step S205: NO), if the probability variation count after subtraction in the processing of step S206 is not zero (step S207: NO), and the processing of step S208 is completed In this case, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the current probability state is a low probability state (step S209). For example, the main control CPU 40a identifies whether the current probability state is a low probability state or a high probability state based on the probability information stored in the main control RAM 40c. If the current probability state is a low probability state (step S209: YES), the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the total number of games stored in the main control RAM 40c and updates it (step S210). At this time, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as "total number of games command") capable of specifying the total number of games after addition in the output buffer. The main control CPU 40a corresponds to game counting means capable of counting the number of times the symbol variation game is executed in a situation where a special condition is satisfied (low probability state).

When the current probability state is a high probability state (step S209: NO) and when the process of step S210 is completed, the main control CPU 40a selects the first stored random number information for the first special game. Random number information is acquired (step S211). When the main control CPU 40a acquires the earliest random number information in the process of step S211, it erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Next, the main control CPU 40a performs a winning lottery (step S212). In the winning lottery, the main control CPU 40a compares the value of the winning random number specified from the obtained random number information with the big win determination value, and determines whether or not the big win has been won in the winning lottery. At this time, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the jackpot has been won with the winning probability according to the current probability state. For example, the probability of winning a jackpot is 218/65536 (approximately 1/300) in the low probability state. Also, for example, the probability of winning a big hit is 1010/65536 (approximately 1/65) in a high probability state. When the main control CPU 40a determines in the process of step S212 that the jackpot has been won, the main control CPU 40a determines the special jackpot pattern based on the value of the jackpot pattern random number specified from the acquired random number information. On the other hand, when the main control CPU 40a determines in the process of step S212 that the jackpot has not been won, it determines whether or not the time saving win has been won. In the present embodiment, the winning rate of the time saving winning in the winning lottery of the first special game is zero. That is, in the winning lottery of the first special game, the time saving winning is not won. When the main control CPU 40a determines that the time-saving hit has not been won, it determines the winning design of the special design. In addition, in the winning lottery of the first special game, it is not necessary to determine whether or not the prize is won in the short working hours. In this case, when it is determined that the main control CPU 40a has not won the big hit, the main control CPU 40a may determine the winning symbols of the special symbols. The jackpot symbol or winning symbol determined in the process of step S212 becomes the fixed stop symbol derived in the special game. In addition, as described above, the jackpot pattern of the special pattern is associated with the type of jackpot. Therefore, determining the jackpot pattern means determining the type of jackpot. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as a symbol command) capable of specifying the special symbol determined in the process of step S212 in the output buffer. After that, the main control CPU 40a performs a variation pattern determination lottery based on the variation pattern determination random number specified from the random number information acquired in the process of step S211 and the result of the winning lottery performed in the process of step S212, A main fluctuation pattern is determined (step S213). The main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as a variation pattern command) capable of specifying the main variation pattern determined in the process of step S213 in the output buffer. The symbol command and the variation pattern command are commands for instructing the start of the production game. After that, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol start process.

When the second special reservation number is greater than zero (step S202: YES), the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the second special reservation number and updates it (step S214). In the process of step S204, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated second special reservation number is displayed. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a second reservation number command that can specify the updated second special reservation number. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the probability variation number is greater than zero (step S215). When the probability variation frequency is greater than zero (step S215: YES), the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the probability variation frequency and updates it (step S216). When the processing of step S216 ends, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the number of probability variations after subtraction in the processing of step S216 is zero (step S217). When the number of probability variations after subtraction in the process of step S216 is zero (step S217: YES), the main control CPU 40a controls to a low probability state (step S218). In the process of step S218, the main control CPU 40a stores a game state designation command that can specify the game state in the output buffer. Further, the main control CPU 40a updates the probability information so that it can be specified that the current probability state is the low probability state.

If the probability variation count is zero in the processing of step S215 (step S215: NO), if the probability variation count after subtraction in the processing of step S216 is not zero (step S217: NO), and the processing of step S218 is completed In this case, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the current probability state is a low probability state (step S219). If the current probability state is a low probability state (step S219: YES), the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the total number of games stored in the main control RAM 40c and updates it (step S220). At this time, the main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a total number of games command that can specify the total number of games after addition.

When the current probability state is a high probability state (step S219: NO) and when the process of step S220 is finished, the main control CPU 40a selects the random number information stored first among the random number information for the second special game. Random number information is acquired (step S221). When the main control CPU 40a acquires the earliest random number information in the process of step S221, it erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Next, the main control CPU 40a performs a winning lottery (step S222). In the process of step S222, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not a big hit has been won. When it is determined that a jackpot has been won, the main control CPU 40a determines a special jackpot pattern based on the value of the jackpot pattern random number specified from the acquired random number information. When it is determined that the jackpot has not been won, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the time saving win has been won. At this time, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not it has been elected with a winning probability according to the current probability state. For example, the probability of winning a jackpot is 874/65536 (approximately 1/75) in the low probability state. On the other hand, the winning probability per time saving is zero in the high probability state. That is, in the winning lottery of the second special game, if the current probability state is a low probability state, it is possible to win a time-saving hit. On the other hand, in the winning lottery of the second special game, if the current probability state is a high probability state, the time saving winning is not won. In this embodiment, the probability that the result of the winning lottery will be a time saving hit is higher than the probability that the result of the winning lottery will be a big hit in the non-time saving state. When it is determined that the time saving hit has been won, the main control CPU 40a determines the time saving hitting design of the special design based on the value of the time saving hitting design random number specified from the acquired random number information. In addition, when there is one type of time-saving per pattern, the main control CPU 40a may determine a predetermined time-saving design based on the fact that it is determined that the time-saving per is won. When it is determined that the time saving hit has not been won, the main control CPU 40a determines the winning symbol of the special symbol. The jackpot symbol, time-saving winning symbol, or losing symbol determined in the process of step S222 is the fixed stop symbol derived in the special game. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a design command capable of specifying the special design determined in the process of step S222. After that, the main control CPU 40a performs a variation pattern determination lottery based on the variation pattern determination random number specified from the random number information acquired in the process of step S221 and the result of the winning lottery performed in the process of step S222, A main fluctuation pattern is determined (step S223). The main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a variation pattern command that can specify the main variation pattern determined in the process of step S223. After that, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol start process.

After completing the special symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a performs a process different from the special symbol start process, and executes a special game. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the special game is started. The main control CPU 40a counts the variation time associated with the variation pattern determined in the special symbol start process. Further, when the special game starts to be executed, the main control CPU 40a sets information indicating that the special game is being executed in the control state flag. At this time, the main control CPU 40a sets information indicating that the first special game is being executed in the control state flag when executing the first special game, and sets information indicating that the first special game is being executed in the control state flag when executing the second special game. Information indicating that the second special game is being executed is set in the control state flag.

Then, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the special symbol determined in the special symbol start process is derived when the variation time associated with the variation pattern elapses. In addition, when the variation time associated with the variation pattern determined in the special symbol start process elapses, the main control CPU 40a instructs to stop the variation of the performance symbols, and outputs a game end command for deriving the symbol combination to the output buffer. store in In addition, when the execution of the special game ends, the main control CPU 40a sets information indicating that the special game is not being executed and that the jackpot game is not being played in the control state flag. Further, the main control CPU 40a sets a variable interval time after the special game ends. The execution of the special game is not started until the fluctuation interval time has passed. Also, the big win game is not generated until the fluctuation interval time elapses.

When the interval time elapses, the main control CPU 40a executes processing for shifting the game state (hereinafter referred to as post-stop state transition processing).
As shown in FIG. 8, in the post-stop state transition process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the special game that was completed immediately before is a big-hit special game (step S301). When the last special game is a big hit special game (step S301: YES), the main control CPU 40a performs control to a low-probability short-time state (step S302). In the process of step S302, the main control CPU 40a updates the probability information so that it can be specified that the low probability state is being controlled. In addition, the main control CPU 40a updates the ball-entering rate information stored in the main control RAM 40c so that it can be specified that it is controlled in a non-time-saving state. The ball entry rate information can specify whether the current ball entry rate state is a non-time saving state or a time saving state, and if the current ball ball rate state is a time saving state, the type is specified. It is possible information. When the process of step S302 ends, the main control CPU 40a ends the post-stop state transition process.

If the last special game is not a jackpot special game (step S301: NO), the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the normal shift condition is satisfied (step S303). Specifically, the main control CPU 40a determines that the normal transition condition is satisfied when the special game for the specified upper limit number of times is completed while the time saving state is being controlled. For example, when in the time saving state, the main control CPU 40a may subtract 1 from the number of times of saving time based on the specified upper limit number of times set in the time saving state, triggered by the start of the special game. In this case, when the special game ends in the time saving state, if the number of times of time saving is zero, it can be determined that the special game is the specified upper limit number of special games. It can be said that the number of times of shortening of working hours is the remaining number of special games to be executed before being controlled from the shortening of working hours state to the non-shortening of working hours state. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a stores control information that can specify the number of times of time saving (hereinafter referred to as time saving number command) in the output buffer, triggered by the start of the special game or the end of the special game.

When the normal transition condition is satisfied (step S303: YES), the main control CPU 40a controls to a non-time saving state (step S304). In the process of step S304, the main control CPU 40a updates the entry rate information so that it can be specified that it is controlled in the non-time-saving state. In addition, in the process of step S304, the main control CPU 40a stores a game state designation command that can specify the game state in the output buffer. If the normal transition condition is not satisfied (step S303: NO) and the process of step S304 is completed, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the specific transition condition is satisfied (step S305). In this embodiment, the main control CPU 40a determines that the specific transition condition is established when the total number of games played reaches a specific number. When the specific transition condition is satisfied (step S305: YES), the main control CPU 40a controls to the second time saving state (step S306). At this time, the main control CPU 40a updates the ball entry rate information so that it can be specified that it is controlled in the second time saving state. As described above, the accumulated number of games is added when the current probability state is the low probability state. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the specific transition condition is satisfied, the main control CPU 40a controls to the second low probability short working hours state. In addition, in the process of step S306, the main control CPU 40a stores a game state designation command that can specify the game state in the output buffer. When the process of step S306 ends, the main control CPU 40a ends the post-stop state transition process.

If the specific transition condition is not satisfied (step S305: NO), the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the special transition condition is satisfied (step S307). For example, the main control CPU 40a determines that the special transition condition is established when the gaming state is a low-probability non-time-saving state and the immediately preceding special game is a time-saving special game. If the special transition condition is not satisfied (step S307: NO), the main control CPU 40a ends the post-stop state transition process. If the special transition condition is satisfied (step S307: YES), the main control CPU 40a controls the third time saving state (step S308). At this time, the main control CPU 40a updates the ball entry rate information so that it can be specified that it is controlled in the third time saving state. Special transition conditions can be established when the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state, so in the present embodiment, when the special transition conditions are established, the main control CPU 40a is in the third low probability time saving state Control. In addition, in the process of step S308, the main control CPU 40a stores a game state designation command that can specify the game state in the output buffer. When the process of step S308 ends, the main control CPU 40a ends the post-stop state transition process.

Thus, in this embodiment, when a big hit game is started, it shifts to a low-probability short-time state. In addition, when the normal shift condition is satisfied, it shifts to the non-working time saving state. Moreover, when specific transition conditions are satisfied, it transfers to a 2nd time saving state. Moreover, when special transition conditions are satisfied, it transfers to a 3rd time saving state. Further, in the present embodiment, it is determined whether or not the specific transition condition is satisfied after determining whether or not the normal transition condition is satisfied. Further, after it is determined whether or not the specific transition condition has been established, it is determined whether or not the special transition condition has been established. Therefore, in the time saving state, the main control CPU 40a controls to a non-specific ball entry state triggered by the execution of the special game for the specified upper limit number of times, and then the special game for the specified upper limit number of times is a time saving hit. When it is the second special game, it is controlled to the third time saving state with the end of the special game of the specified upper limit number as a trigger.

The jackpot processing performed by the main control CPU 40a after the jackpot special game is finished will be described. Incidentally, the jackpot process is executed after the end of the post-stop state transition process.
In the jackpot process, the main control CPU 40a specifies the jackpot game type based on the jackpot pattern (that is, the jackpot type) determined in the special pattern start process. Then, the main control CPU 40a starts control to generate the specified jackpot game. Therefore, the main control CPU 40a causes a jackpot game by executing the jackpot process. Thus, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, a jackpot game is generated after winning a jackpot. In addition, with the occurrence of the jackpot game, the main control CPU 40a sets the control state flag to information that can specify that the jackpot game is in progress.

Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a stores the opening command in the output buffer. When the main control CPU 40a stores the opening command in the output buffer, it counts the opening time. After the opening time has elapsed, the main control CPU 40a performs processing for executing a round game. That is, the main control CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 to open the big winning opening 29 according to the opening mode (opening pattern) set for the big win game, and starts the round game. After starting the round game, the main control CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 so as to close the big winning opening 29 when the first round end condition or the second round end condition is established, and the round game is started. terminate. The main control CPU 40a repeats the processing for executing the round game until the upper limit number of round games set for the jackpot game is completed. Also, the main control CPU 40a stores a round command in the output buffer each time a round game is started.

Further, the main control CPU 40a stores the ending command in the output buffer when the final round game ends. At this time, the main control CPU 40a generates an ending command so that the type of jackpot game can be specified. When the main control CPU 40a stores the ending command in the output buffer, the main control CPU 40a counts the ending time. Then, when the ending time elapses, the main control CPU 40a ends the jackpot game. Further, when the jackpot game ends, the main control CPU 40a sets the control state flag to information indicating that the special game is not being executed and the jackpot game is not being played.

In addition, the main control CPU 40a controls the game state according to the type of the big win game, triggered by the end of the big win game. That is, the main control CPU 40a controls to the first low-probability time-saving state, triggered by the end of the first normal per game. In addition, the main control CPU 40a controls to the first low-probability time-saving state, triggered by the end of the second normal winning game. In addition, the main control CPU 40a controls to a high probability time saving state with the end of the first specific per game as a trigger. In addition, the main control CPU 40a controls to a high probability time saving state with the end of the second specific per game as a trigger. The main control CPU 40a updates the probability information according to the game state. In addition, the main control CPU 40a updates the ball entry rate information according to the gaming state. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores a game state designation command that can specify the game state in the output buffer. The main control CPU 40a corresponds to game state control means for controlling the game state.

Next, normal design input processing will be described. The normal symbol input process is a process called in the interrupt process, and is performed by the main control CPU 40a at predetermined intervals.
In the normal symbol input process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the game ball has passed through the gate 31 (entered) based on whether a detection signal has been input from the gate sensor SE4. When the game ball has not passed through the gate 31, the main control CPU 40a terminates the normal symbol input process. On the other hand, when the game ball passes through the gate 31, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the number of normal reservations stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment). When the number of normal reservations is not less than the upper limit number, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process. When the normal pending number is less than the upper limit number, the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the normal pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c and updates it. In this case, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 to display the updated number of normal reservations. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as "normal reservation number command") that can specify the updated normal reservation number in the output buffer.

Next, the main control CPU 40a acquires random numbers generated in the main substrate 40, and stores random number information based on the acquired random numbers in the main control RAM 40c. In this case, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the normal game so that the storage order of the random number information can be specified. After that, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process.

Next, normal design start processing will be described. The normal symbol start process is a process called in the interrupt process, and is performed by the main control CPU 40a at predetermined intervals.
In the normal symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the conditions for executing the normal game are met. The main control CPU 40a makes an affirmative determination when the normal winning game is not being executed and the normal game is not being executed, while making a negative determination when the normal winning game is being executed or the normal game is being executed. When the normal game execution condition is not satisfied, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process. On the other hand, when the normal game execution condition is satisfied, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the normal hold number stored in the main control RAM 40c is greater than zero. When the number of normal reservations is zero, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process. When the normal pending number is greater than zero, the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the normal pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c and updates it. In this process, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated number of normal reservations is displayed. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a normal pending number command that can specify the updated normal pending number.

Next, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the normal game from the main control RAM 40c. When reading the first random number information, the main control CPU 40a erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win a normal win based on the read random number information and the normal win determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to normal winning lottery (normal winning determination). For example, when adopting the above-described probability fluctuation control of the normal symbol, the main control CPU 40a is elected per normal so that the probability of winning per normal is higher in the time saving state than in the non-time saving state It is recommended to make a judgment as to whether or not Thus, in the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a performs a normal winning lottery, thereby realizing a function as a normal winning lottery means for performing a normal winning lottery or a normal winning determining means for determining whether a normal winning will occur. be.

In the case of normal winning, the main control CPU 40a determines the normal winning symbols to be fixed and displayed in the normal game and the variation time of the normal game. For example, when adopting the normal symbol variation time shortening control, the main control CPU 40a determines the first variation time in the non-time saving state, and determines the second variation time shorter than the first variation time in the time saving state. do it. After that, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process.

Then, the main control CPU 40a executes a normal game by performing processing different from the normal symbol start processing. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a starts the normal game, and when the fluctuation time determined in the normal symbol start process has elapsed, the normal symbol determined in the normal symbol start process is fixed and stopped. It controls the information display panel 22 . In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the output buffer, control information that can specify that the execution of the normal game is to be started when the execution of the normal game is started.

Next, the normal hit process performed by the main control CPU 40a after the end of the normal game will be described. Incidentally, the “normal game with normal winning” corresponds to a normal game that becomes a normal winning, and corresponds to a normal game to be won in the normal winning lottery. On the other hand, the "losing normal game" corresponds to a losing normal game, and corresponds to a normal game for non-winning when a normal winning lottery is not won in the normal winning lottery.

After the end of the normal game per normal, the main control CPU 40a determines the opening pattern of the second starting port 27, and the first actuator A1 so that the second starting port 27 is opened according to the determined opening pattern. to generate a normal winning game. For example, when adopting the above-described open time extension control, the main control CPU40a selects the first open pattern in the non-time saving state, in the time saving state, one normal per game than the first open pattern A second opening pattern with a longer total opening time of the first variable member 28 may be determined. Thus, in the present embodiment, the normal winning process is performed by the main control CPU 40a after the normal winning normal game is finished, so that the normal winning game is generated after the normal winning game is finished. A function as a means is realized.

In this embodiment, when it is in the time saving state, it is easier to win per normal than when it is not in the time saving state. The pachinko game machine 10 is constructed so that a normal win can be won even in a non-time-saving state, and when a normal win lottery is won, the first variable member 28 is in an open state. . Therefore, in the pachinko game machine 10 of the present embodiment, when it is in the non-time-saving state, it is difficult for the game ball to enter the second start port 27 as compared to when it is in the time-saving state, but the game is played to the second start port 27 A ball can enter.

Further, when the main control CPU 40a receives a detection signal from the radio wave sensor among the error detection sensors ES, it stores control information (hereinafter referred to as "radio wave detection command") indicating that the radio wave has been detected in the output buffer. do. Further, when the main control CPU 40a receives a detection signal from the door open sensor among the error detection sensors ES, the main control CPU 40a receives control information indicating that the middle frame 13 or the front frame 14 is opened (hereinafter referred to as "door open detection command ) is stored in the output buffer. Further, when the main control CPU 40a receives a detection signal from the clogged ball sensor among the error detection sensors ES, the main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter referred to as "clogged ball detection command") indicating that clogged balls have been detected in a predetermined ball passage. ) is stored in the output buffer.

Next, various processes performed by the overall control CPU 41a based on the overall control program will be described.
The overall control CPU 41a performs various necessary settings (initial settings) when power supply is started. After performing the initialization, the overall control CPU 41a waits until an initialization command or a return command is input. In this embodiment, the central control CPU 41a is activated before the main control CPU 40a. Therefore, when the initialization command or the return command is output from the main control CPU 40a, the overall control CPU 41a has already started and is in a state of waiting for the input of the initialization command or the return command.

When the initialization command is input, the overall control CPU 41a erases the backup information stored in the overall control RAM 41c and sets initial values. Further, when the initialization command is input, the overall control CPU 41a stores control information designating initialization in the output buffer. The control information specifying initialization includes, for example, an initialization specification command that specifies that it is at the time of initialization, an initialization-time effect specification command that instructs the effect at the time of initialization, and a effect pattern at the time of initialization. There is a production design specification command to specify. The control information stored in the output buffer by the central control CPU 41a is output to the display board 42 in subsequent interrupt processing. Further, when the initialization command is input, the overall control CPU 41a controls the decoration lamp 17 and the speaker 18 so as to execute the effect at the time of initialization.

On the other hand, when the return command is input, the overall control CPU 41a specifies the contents designated by the symbol state designation command. Specifically, the overall control CPU 41a returns to the state in which the big win game is being played, the state in which the special game is being executed, or the state in which the special game is not being executed and the big win game is not being played. It is specified from the symbol state designation command whether it is a return to. As described above, the state in which neither the special game is being executed nor the jackpot game is being played is the standby state. If the contents specified by the symbol state designation command do not match the backup information stored in the overall control RAM 41c, the overall control CPU 41a erases the backup information stored in the overall control RAM 41c. However, it is preferable to set the initial value according to the contents specified by the symbol state specifying command.

When specifying the return to the standby state, the overall control CPU 41a stores the control information designating the return to the standby state in the output buffer. The control information designating the return to the standby state includes, for example, an overall return command designating the return, and an effect pattern designation command designating the effect pattern at the time of return. Also, the overall control CPU 41a returns to the process executed in the standby state.

When specifying the return to the state in which the special game is being executed, the overall control CPU 41a stores control information designating return to the state in which the special game is being executed in the output buffer. The control information designating return to the situation in which the special game is being executed includes, for example, a general return command designating return. Also, the overall control CPU 41a returns to the process for executing the effect game executed in conjunction with the special game. When it is specified that the game is to return to the situation in which the jackpot game is in progress, the overall control CPU 41a stores the control information designating the return to the situation in which the jackpot game is in progress in the output buffer. The control information specifying the return to the situation in which the jackpot game is in progress includes, for example, an overall return command to specify the return, and a return effect specification command in the jackpot to instruct the production in returning to the situation in which the jackpot game is in progress. And there is. In addition, the overall control CPU 41a returns to the process for executing the big hit effect. The jackpot effect is a effect that is executed in relation to the occurrence of the jackpot game.

Next, the effect game processing performed by the overall control CPU 41a will be described.

Information that can specify the type of special symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is stored in the general control RAM 41c until the next symbol command is input. When the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is a jackpot symbol, the information that can specify the type of the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol command can be said to be the information that can specify the type of the big win.

Also, when a symbol command and a variation pattern designation command are input, the overall control CPU 41a performs control to execute a performance game. Specifically, the overall control CPU 41a determines the symbol combination of the effect symbols to be finally fixed and displayed in the effect game based on the variation pattern designation command and the symbol command. When the symbol combination of the performance symbols is determined, the overall control CPU 41a stores the performance symbol designation command for designating the symbol combination of the determined performance symbols in the output buffer. When the symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is a big-hit symbol, the overall control CPU 41a determines a big-hit symbol combination based on the performance symbols. When the symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is the time-saving winning symbol, the overall control CPU 41a determines the symbol combination for the time-saving winning design. When the symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is the missing symbol, the overall control CPU 41a determines the missing symbol combination based on the effect symbol. For example, the overall control CPU 41a may determine a symbol combination that includes a ready-to-win state when performing a ready-to-win effect in the current effect game because the ready-to-win condition is satisfied. In this embodiment, the reach condition is established when the variation pattern with the loss reach is designated. Note that the ready-to-win condition may be established when the central control CPU 41a conducts an effect lottery and wins the effect lottery.

Further, when a variation pattern specifying command is input, the overall control CPU 41a stores an effect game start command instructing the start of the effect game in the output buffer. On the other hand, when the game end command is input, the overall control CPU 41a stores the effect game end command instructing the end of the effect game in the output buffer. Incidentally, the game end command input by the overall control CPU 41a may be the same control information as the effect game end command output to the display board 42. FIG. Similarly, the variation pattern designation command input by the overall control CPU 41 a may be the same control information as the effect game start command output to the display board 42 .

In addition, the overall control CPU 41a determines, for example, whether a predetermined effect such as a jackpot announcement effect or a suggestive effect suggesting a game state is to be executed. Then, when executing a predetermined effect, the overall control CPU 41a stores control information instructing execution of the predetermined effect in the output buffer, and selects one of the decorative lamp 17 and the speaker 18 according to the predetermined effect to be executed. Control at least one.

Further, when a prefetch command that can be identified as a prefetch command corresponding to the first special game is input, the overall control CPU 41a determines that the prefetch command corresponds to the first special game and determines the storage order of the prefetch commands. It is stored in the general control RAM 41c so as to be identifiable. Similarly, when the general control CPU 41a inputs a prefetch command that can be identified as a prefetch command corresponding to the second special game, the supervising control CPU 41a determines that the prefetch command corresponds to the second special game, and the storage order of the prefetch commands. are stored in the general control RAM 41c so as to be identifiable. Further, when a variation pattern specifying command corresponding to the first special game is input, the overall control CPU 41a selects the prefetch command stored first among the prefetch commands corresponding to the first special game stored in the overall control RAM 41c. is erased from the general control RAM 41c. Similarly, when a variation pattern specifying command corresponding to the second special game is input, the overall control CPU 41a selects the first stored prefetch command among the prefetch commands corresponding to the second special game stored in the overall control RAM 41c. The command is erased from the general control RAM 41c.

Next, the game state processing performed by the overall control CPU 41a will be described.
When the game state specifying command is input, the overall control CPU 41a updates the information about the game state stored in the overall control RAM 41c according to the game state that can be specified from the game state specifying command. For example, when the CPU 41a for overall control specifies that it is a non-time-saving state from the game state designation command, it updates the overall time-saving information stored in the RAM 41c for overall control so that it can be specified that it is a non-time-saving state. . When the CPU 41a for overall control specifies that it is the first time saving state from the game state designation command, it updates the overall time saving information stored in the RAM 41c for overall control so that the first time saving state can be specified. . When the overall control CPU 41a specifies the second time saving state from the game state designation command, the overall time saving information stored in the overall control RAM 41c is updated so that the second time saving state can be specified. . When the overall control CPU 41a specifies that it is the third time saving state from the game state designation command, it updates the overall time saving information stored in the overall control RAM 41c so that it can be specified as the third time saving state. . When the overall control CPU 41a specifies the low probability state from the game state designation command, the overall control CPU 41a updates the overall probability information stored in the overall control RAM 41c so that the low probability state can be specified. When the overall control CPU 41a specifies the high probability state from the game state designation command, the overall control CPU 41a updates the overall probability information stored in the overall control RAM 41c so that the high probability state can be specified.

Further, the period from being controlled to the second low probability short working hours state to being controlled to the low probability non short working hours state is a continuous period. In addition, the period from being controlled to the third low probability short working hours state to being controlled to the low probability non short working hours state is a continuous period. The low-probability non-time-saving state corresponds to the normal game state, and the first low-probability time-saving state and high-probability time-saving state correspond to a specific game state having a higher degree of advantage than the normal game state.

Next, a description will be given of the control related to the execution of the attention calling regarding the immersion during the big win game and the control related to the execution of the attention calling regarding the return of the storage medium during the big winning game along with the operation.
FIG. 12 shows a specific example of an execution mode of calling attention to the immersion in a big-hit game based on a big hit (hereinafter referred to as "first-hit game"). When an ending command is input in the first hit game, the overall control CPU 41a stores a specific ending effect designation command among the ending effect designation commands in the output buffer. For example, the overall control CPU 41a determines whether or not it is a first winning game based on consecutive game information stored in the overall control RAM 41c. In this case, when the central control CPU 41a specifies that a big hit pattern variation game is executed from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol command when it is in the low probability non-time saving state, the big hit (low It is determined that you have won the jackpot in a certain non-time-saving state). Based on this determination result, the overall control CPU 41a updates the consecutive house information stored in the overall control RAM 41c so that it can be specified that the current big win is the first big win.

When the specific ending effect designation command is input, the display control CPU 42a controls the effect display device 25 so that the attention-calling image GTa is displayed, that is, the attention-calling regarding the immersion is executed. Further, when a specific ending effect designation command is input, the display control CPU 42a controls the effect display device 25 so as to display the attention-calling image GTb, that is, to execute the attention-calling regarding the return of the storage medium. Control. Thereby, when the pachinko game machine 10 wins a big win in a low-probability non-time-saving state and a big win game is generated, it is possible to call attention to immersion during the big win game. In addition, when the pachinko game machine 10 wins a jackpot in a low-probability non-time-saving state and a jackpot game is generated, it is possible to call attention to the return of the storage medium during the jackpot game.

Here, it is assumed that the power supply is interrupted at time T01 during the opening period of the first hit game, and then the power supply is started. When the power supply is cut off during the opening period of the first winning game, and then the ending command is input in the big winning game when returning to the big winning game with the start of the power supply, the overall control CPU 41a A specific ending effect designating command among the ending effect designating commands is stored in the output buffer. As described above, the information stored in the general control RAM 41c is stored and held while the power supply is interrupted. For this reason, the pachinko game machine 10 of the present embodiment cuts off the power supply during the opening period of the first winning game, and then calls attention to immersion when returning to the big winning game as the power supply is started. is executable.

When being controlled to the second time saving state, the overall control CPU 41a stores a specific rush performance designation command in the output buffer when the previous big hit is the first normal hit or the first specific hit. For example, the overall control CPU 41a determines whether the previous big win is the first normal win or the first specific win based on the previous big win information stored in the overall control RAM 41c. In this case, the overall control CPU 41a may update the previous big win information so that the type of big win corresponding to the big win game can be specified when the big win game is generated.

When the specific rush effect command is input, the display control CPU 42a controls the effect display device 25 so that the attention calling image GTc is displayed, that is, the attention of the immersion is executed. Further, when the specific rush effect designation command is input, the display control CPU 42a controls the effect display device 25 so that the attention-calling image GTd is displayed, that is, the attention-calling regarding the return of the storage medium is executed. Control. As a result, the pachinko gaming machine 10 can call attention to immersion when being controlled to the second time saving state. In addition, the pachinko gaming machine 10 can call attention to the return of the storage medium when it is controlled to the second time saving state. The second time-saving state corresponds to a special game state in which the advantage of entering the second starting port 27 (specific starting port) is higher than the low-probability non-time-saving state (normal game state).

On the other hand, if the previous big win is the second normal win or the second specific win, the overall control CPU 41a does not store the specific rush performance designation command in the output buffer when it is controlled to the second time saving state. That is, if the previous big win is the second normal win or the second specific win, the attention regarding the immersion is not executed when the second time saving state is controlled. Similarly, when the previous big win is the second normal win or the second specific win, the attention regarding the return of the storage medium is not executed when the second time-saving state is controlled.

Thus, in the present embodiment, when the previous jackpot is the first normal win or the first specific win, there is a warning about immersion and a warning about returning the storage medium when controlled to the second time-saving state. executed. In this embodiment, when the last big hit is the first normal hit or the first specific hit, the period controlled to the low-probability non-time saving state before being controlled to the second time saving state is long. Therefore, in such a case, it is assumed that a new consecutive residence period has started, and a warning regarding immersion and a warning regarding return of the storage medium are executed. On the other hand, when the second normal hit or the second specific hit, the period controlled to the low probability non-working time saving state before being controlled to the second working time saving state is extremely short. Specifically, in the case of the second normal hit or the second specific hit, one special game is executed during the period when it is controlled to the low probability non-time saving state before being controlled to the second time saving state. It is the period during which In such a case, it is assumed that the continuous dwelling state continues, and the alert regarding the immersion and the return of the storage medium are not executed.

Next, control related to the execution of calling attention to immersion in the big win game caused by winning the big win in the second time saving state, and a storage medium during the big win game caused by winning the big win in the second time saving state The control related to the execution of the alert regarding the return of the will be described together with the operation.

FIG. 16 shows a specific example of an execution mode of calling attention to immersion during the big win game when the big win is won in the second time saving state and the big win game is generated. As described above, since the second time saving state is included in the continuous game period, the jackpot game generated based on winning the jackpot in the second time saving state is the consecutive game winning game. Therefore, when the specific condition is not satisfied, when the jackpot is won in the second time-saving state and the jackpot game is generated, the attention about the immersion in the jackpot game and the attention about the return of the storage medium are not executed. .

Here, when a big win is won in the second time-saving state and a big win game is generated, the power supply is cut off at time T21 during the opening period of the big win game, and then the power supply is started. When the jackpot is won in the second time saving state and the jackpot game is generated, the power supply is cut off during the opening period of the jackpot game, and then the power supply is started. is determined to be satisfied. Therefore, when a jackpot is won in the second time saving state and a jackpot game is generated, the power supply is cut off during the opening period of the jackpot game, and then when the power supply is started, the overall control CPU 41a , when an ending command is input, a specific ending effect designating command is stored in the output buffer. For example, when the CPU 41a for overall control specifies returning to the jackpot game from the symbol state designation command, the total number of games has reached a specific number based on the total number of games information stored in the RAM 41c for overall control. It is determined that the specific condition is satisfied when specifying that. The cumulative number-of-games information may be updated so that the cumulative number-of-games can be identified from the cumulative-number-of-games command when the overall control CPU 41a inputs the cumulative-number-of-games command.

Thereby, the pachinko game machine 10 cuts off the power supply during the opening period of the big win game when the big win is won in the second time-saving state and the big win game is generated, and then the power supply is started. When returning to the big win game along with this, it is possible to call attention to being absorbed in the big win game. Similarly, in the pachinko game machine 10, when a jackpot is won in the second time-saving state and a jackpot game is generated, the power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the jackpot game, and then the power supply is started. When returning to the big win game along with this, it is possible to call attention to the return of the storage medium during the big win game.

Also, when a big win is won in the second time saving state and a big win game is generated, the power supply is cut off at time T22 during the round period of the big win game, and then the power supply is started. When the jackpot is won in the second time saving state and the jackpot game is generated, the power supply is cut off during the round period of the jackpot game, and then the power supply is started. is determined to be satisfied. Therefore, when the power supply is interrupted during the round period of the jackpot game generated by winning the jackpot in the second time saving state, and then the power supply is started, the overall control CPU 41a inputs the ending command. , stores a specific ending effect designating command in the output buffer. As a result, the pachinko game machine 10 cuts off the power supply during the round period of the big win game when the big win is won in the second time-saving state and the big win game is generated, and then the power supply is started. When returning to the big win game along with this, it is possible to call attention to being absorbed in the big win game. Similarly, in the pachinko game machine 10, when a jackpot is won in the second short time state and a jackpot game is generated, the power supply is cut off during the round period of the jackpot game, and then the power supply is started. When returning to the big win game along with this, it is possible to call attention to the return of the storage medium during the big win game.

After that, when a big win is won in the second time saving state and a big win game is generated, the power supply is cut off again at time T23 during the ending period of the big win game, and then the power supply is started. That is, when a jackpot is won in the second time-saving state and a jackpot game is generated, the power supply is cut off during execution of a call for attention regarding immersion in the jackpot game (a caution regarding return of the storage medium), and then, Assume that power supply is started. When the jackpot is won in the second time saving state and the jackpot game is generated, the power supply is cut off during the ending period of the jackpot game, and then the power supply is started. is not satisfied. Therefore, when the power supply is interrupted during the ending period of the jackpot game caused by winning the jackpot in the second time saving state, and then the power supply is started, the overall control CPU 41a issues a specific ending effect designation command. is not stored in the output buffer. Therefore, in the pachinko game machine 10, the power supply is interrupted during the execution of the alert regarding the immersion in the jackpot game caused by winning the jackpot in the second time saving state, and then the power supply is started. When returning to the big win game, it is impossible to call attention to the immersion in the big win game. Similarly, the power supply is interrupted during the execution of the warning regarding the return of the storage medium during the jackpot game, which is caused by winning the jackpot in the second time-saving state, and then the power supply is started, resulting in a jackpot. When returning to the game, it is impossible to call attention to the return of the storage medium during the big win game.

The overall control CPU 41a does not store the specific rush effect designation command in the output buffer when it is controlled to the third time saving state based on the first time saving hit. That is, when it is controlled to the 3rd time saving state based on the 1st time saving hit, the alerting regarding immersion is not performed. Similarly, when it is controlled to the 3rd time saving state based on 1st time saving hit, the alerting regarding return of a storage medium is not performed. On the other hand, when the overall control CPU 41a is controlled to the third time saving state based on the second time saving hit, it stores the specific rush effect designation command in the output buffer. That is, when it is controlled to the 3rd time saving state based on the 2nd time saving hit, the alerting about being immersed is performed. Similarly, when it is controlled to the 3rd time saving state based on the 2nd time saving hit, the alerting regarding return of a storage medium is performed. For example, the overall control CPU41a is controlled to the third time saving state based on the first time saving hit based on the time saving hit information stored in the overall control RAM41c, or to the third time saving state based on the second time saving hit Determine if it is controlled. In this case, the overall control CPU 41a may update the time saving winning information so as to be able to specify the type of time saving winning symbol derived when the time saving winning symbol variation game is executed from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol command.

As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment can call attention to immersion when being controlled to the third time saving state based on the second time saving pattern. Further, the pachinko gaming machine 10 can call attention to returning the storage medium when controlled to the third time saving state based on the second time saving pattern.

FIG. 24 shows a specific example of an execution mode of calling attention regarding immersion in the jackpot game when the jackpot is won in the third time saving state and the jackpot game is generated.
The overall control CPU 41a determines that a big hit is won in the third time saving state by specifying that a big winning pattern variation game is executed from the variation pattern designation command and the symbol command when the third time saving state is in effect. . At this time, the overall control CPU 41a determines that the current big win is the first big win regardless of the type of the time saving win that triggered control to the third time saving state. In addition, the overall control CPU 41a updates the consecutive house information stored in the overall control RAM 41c so that it can be specified that the current big win is the first big win.

When the ending command is input in the jackpot game in the third time saving state, the overall control CPU 41a stores a specific ending effect designation command among the ending effect designation commands in the output buffer. That is, when a big win is won in the third time-saving state and a big win game is generated, attention is called for being absorbed in the big win game. Similarly, when a big win is won in the third time-saving state and a big win game is started, a warning regarding the return of the storage medium is executed during the big win game.

Here, it is assumed that the power supply is cut off at time T81 during the opening period of the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then the power supply is started. When the power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the jackpot game in the third time-saving state, and after that, when the jackpot game is returned with the start of the power supply, an ending command is input in the jackpot game, generalization is performed. The control CPU 41a stores a specific ending effect designation command among the ending effect designation commands in the output buffer. As described above, the information stored in the general control RAM 41c is stored and held while the power supply is interrupted. Therefore, in the pachinko game machine 10 of the present embodiment, the power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then when the power supply is started and the jackpot game is resumed. It is possible to execute a warning regarding addiction.

It is possible to call attention to the return of the storage medium.

Moreover, it is assumed that the power supply is cut off at time T82 during the round period of the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then the power supply is started. When the power supply is interrupted during the round period of the big win game in the third time-saving state, and then when the big win game is resumed with the start of the power supply, an ending command is input in the big win game, the generalization is performed. The control CPU 41a stores a specific ending effect designation command among the ending effect designation commands in the output buffer. As a result, power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the jackpot game in the third time-saving state, and after that, when the jackpot game is resumed as the power supply is started, it is possible to call attention to immersion. . Similarly, the electric power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the jackpot game in the third time-saving state, and after that, when the jackpot game is resumed as the power supply is started, a warning regarding the return of the storage medium is executed. It is possible.

After that, it is assumed that the power supply is cut off again at time T83 during the ending period of the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then the power supply is started. That is, it is assumed that the power supply is cut off during the execution of the alert regarding the immersion in the jackpot game in the third time saving state (the alert regarding the return of the storage medium), and then the power supply is started. In this embodiment, when the power supply is interrupted during the ending period of the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then the power supply is started, the overall control CPU 41a stores a specific ending effect designation command in the output buffer. do not. For this reason, the pachinko game machine 10 of the present embodiment cuts off the power supply during the execution of the alert regarding the immersion in the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then hits the jackpot with the start of the power supply. When returning to the game, it is impossible to call attention to being absorbed in the big win game. Similarly, the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment cuts off the power supply during execution of the alert regarding the return of the storage medium during the jackpot game in the third time saving state, and then starts the power supply. Accordingly, when returning to the big win game, it is impossible to call attention to the return of the storage medium during the big win game.

The special effect in this embodiment is an effect that can be executed when there is a special game that will result in a big win among the special games whose execution is suspended at a predetermined timing. Specifically, the special effect in the present embodiment is an effect that can be executed when there is a special game with a big win among the special games whose execution is suspended at the start of the ending period. Therefore, when the special effect is executed, it can be specified that there is a big winning special game among the special games whose execution is suspended.

As shown in FIG. 30(a), when a special effect is executed, the effect display device 25 displays a character image CG. That is, the effect display device 25 may execute a special effect in addition to the ending effect. When the special effect is executed, the special effect is executed in the effect display device 25 so that the character image CG overlaps a part of the ending effect. That is, when the special effect is executed, the visibility of the ending effect is lowered in the effect display device 25 .

As shown in FIG. 30(b), the special effect is an effect that can be executed even when the attention regarding the immersion in the game for the first time and the attention regarding the return of the storage medium are executed. In this embodiment, when a special effect is executed during the first hit game, the special effect is executed in the effect display device 25 so that the character image CG does not cover a part of the attention calling image GTa. In other words, when the special effect is executed, the effect display device 25 does not reduce or substantially reduce the visibility of the alert regarding the immersion. Further, when the special effect is executed during the first winning game, the special effect is executed in the effect display device 25 so that the character image CG does not cover a part of the attention calling image GTb. That is, when the special effect is executed, the effect display device 25 does not reduce or substantially reduce the visibility of the warning regarding the return of the storage medium.

The control related to the execution of the special effect will be described together with the action.
FIG. 31 shows a specific example of an execution mode of calling attention to immersion during the first hit game. At this time, it is assumed that there is a big winning special game among the reserved special games. When an ending command is input, the overall control CPU 41a performs a lottery for execution of a special effect when determining that the first prefetch command or the second prefetch command exists in the prefetch commands stored in the overall control RAM 41c. . In this embodiment, it is decided to execute the special performance when winning the special performance execution lottery, and not to execute the special performance when the special performance execution lottery is not won. Then, when the overall control CPU 41a decides to execute a special effect (when the lottery for executing the special effect is won), the control information (hereinafter referred to as "special effect designation command") specifying the execution of the special effect ) to the output buffer. When the overall control CPU 41a decides not to execute the special effect (when the special effect execution lottery is not won), it does not store the special effect designation command in the output buffer. When the special effect designation command is input, the display control CPU 42a controls the effect display device 25 so that the special effect is executed. For example, when a special effect designation command is input, the display control CPU 42a controls the effect display device 25 so that the character image CG is displayed. At this time, in the ending period of the first-hit game, a warning regarding immersion and a warning regarding return of the storage medium are executed. Also, during the ending period of the first hit game, a warning regarding the return of the storage medium is executed.

Here, it is assumed that the power supply is cut off at time T111 during the opening period of the first hit game, and then the power supply is started. When the power supply is cut off during the opening period of the first winning game, and then the ending command is input in the big winning game when returning to the big winning game with the start of the power supply, the overall control CPU 41a Execution lottery for special effects is not performed. That is, the power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the first winning game, and then the special performance cannot be executed when returning to the big winning game as the power supply is started. As described above, the information stored in the general control RAM 41c is stored and held when the power supply is interrupted, but when the power supply is started and the jackpot game is resumed. The overall control CPU 41a does not perform a special performance execution lottery. On the other hand, the power supply is cut off during the opening period of the first winning game, and then when the big winning game is resumed as the power supply is started, it is possible to call attention to the immersion. Similarly, power supply is interrupted during the opening period of the first winning game, and after that, when returning to the big winning game with the start of power supply, it is possible to call attention to the return of the storage medium.

Further, it is assumed that the power supply is interrupted at time T112 during the round period of the first hit game, and then the power supply is started. When the power supply is interrupted during the round period of the first winning game, and then the ending command is input in the big winning game when returning to the big winning game with the start of the power supply, the overall control CPU 41a Execution lottery for special effects is not performed. That is, the power supply is interrupted during the round period of the first winning game, and then the special effect cannot be executed when returning to the big winning game as the power supply is started. On the other hand, power supply is interrupted during the round period of the first winning game, and after that, when returning to the big winning game with the start of power supply, it is possible to call attention to immersion. Similarly, the power supply is cut off during the round period of the first winning game, and after that, when the big winning game is resumed as the power supply is started, it is possible to call attention to the return of the storage medium.

Moreover, it is assumed that the power supply is cut off at time T113 during the ending period of the first hit game, and then the power supply is started. At this time, it is assumed that a special effect was being executed during the ending period during the first winning game before the power supply was interrupted. Further, at this time, since the first winning game is in progress, the attention about the addiction and the return of the storage medium are called in the ending period of the first winning game before the power supply is interrupted. When the power supply is interrupted during execution of the special performance and then the power supply is started, the overall control CPU 41a does not execute the special performance execution lottery. That is, the power supply is interrupted during execution of the special performance, and thereafter, when the big win game is resumed as the power supply is started, the special performance cannot be executed during the big win game. In addition, the power supply is interrupted in the ending period of the first winning game, and when the big winning game is resumed with the start of the power supply after that, it is impossible to call attention to the addiction during the big winning game. Similarly, when the power supply is interrupted during the ending period of the first winning game, and after that, when the big winning game is resumed as the power supply is started, a warning regarding the return of the storage medium is executed during the big winning game. Impossible.

According to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1-1) to (1-8) of the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(9-1) When the power supply is interrupted and then the power supply is started, even if there is a special game with a big win among the reserved special games, the special effect cannot be executed. For example, a situation in which power supply is interrupted and then restarted may be, for example, the end of business at the amusement arcade. In this case, the player after power supply is started may be different from the player before the jackpot game is started. In such a situation, since there is a possibility that the special performance cannot be effectively executed, the power supply is cut off and then when the power supply is started, the special performance cannot be executed.
