The second big prize winning device 15D includes an operable VAT opening/closing member 15k. The VAT opening/closing member 15k normally closes the second grand prize opening 15, and it is impossible or extremely difficult for the game ball to enter the second grand prize opening 15. The VAT opening/closing member 15k can take an open state. When the VAT opening/closing member 15k is in the open state, it becomes easy for the game ball to enter the second grand prize opening 15. On the other hand, the state in which the VAT opening/closing member 15k closes the second grand prize opening 15 is also referred to as a "closed state". In this way, the second big prize opening 15 is opened and closed by the operation of the VAT opening/closing member 15k. When the game balls enter the second grand prize opening 15, a predetermined number (for example, 14) of game balls are paid out as prize balls.

Here, the second grand prize winning device 15D will be explained in detail using FIG. 3. Inside the second big winning device 15D, there is provided a gate-shaped second big winning hole sensor 15a that can detect the game ball that has entered the second big winning hole 15 and allow the game ball to pass downward. It is being

A specific area 16 and a non-specific area 17 through which game balls can pass (enter) are provided in the downstream area of the second big prize opening sensor 15a. The game balls that have passed through the second big prize opening sensor 15a are sorted into a specific area 16 or a non-specific area 17 by a sorting device 16D. The sorting device 16D includes a sorting member 16k made of a substantially rectangular flat plate, and a sorting solenoid 16s that drives the sorting member 16k. The distribution member 16k is configured to be slidable left and right by driving the distribution solenoid 16s.

When the distribution solenoid 16s is not energized, the distribution member 16k is in the first state (passage prevention state: the left end of the distribution member 16k when viewed from the front in FIG. 3(A) is located slightly to the right of the left end of the specific area 16, and the distribution member 16k covers the specific area 16 directly above it. When the distribution member 16k is in the first state, it is impossible or extremely difficult for the game ball that has entered the second big winning hole 15 to pass through the specific area 16 after passing through the second big winning hole sensor 15a. It is difficult and passes through a non-specific area 17. The route of the game ball flowing down from this second big prize opening 15 to the non-specific area 17 is called a first route.

On the other hand, when the distribution solenoid 16s is energized, the distribution member 16k is in a second state (passage permission state: in a front view of FIG. 3(B)) in which the game ball is allowed to pass (enter) the specific area 16. The left end of the distribution member 16k is located slightly to the left of the right end of the specific area 16, and the distribution member 16k does not cover the specific area 16 directly above it, leaving the area directly above the specific area 16 open. When the distribution member 16k is in the second state, the game ball that has entered the second big winning hole 15 can easily pass through the specific area 16 after passing through the second big winning hole sensor 15a. The route of the game ball flowing down from this second big prize opening 15 to the specific area 16 is called a second route.

Note that basically, the distribution member 16k is held in the first state. That is, it can be said that the first state is the normal state of the distribution member 16k. Then, only in a predetermined round game (for example, 10R), the distribution solenoid 16s is energized and can change to the second state.

The specific area 16 and the non-specific area 17 are provided with a specific area sensor 16a and a non-specific area sensor 17a that detect the game ball that has passed through (entered) each area 16 and 17 and allow the game ball to pass downward. .

Note that it is possible to provide only one of the first grand prize device 14D and the second grand prize device 15D within a range that does not interfere with the game.

Further, at approximately the bottom of the gaming area 6, two out ports 19 are provided for discharging game balls that are hit into the gaming area 6 but do not win in any of the winning holes to the outside of the gaming area 6. There is. Furthermore, the game board 1 is provided with a board lamp 54 that can emit light.

By the way, the game area 6 in which the game balls can flow down can be divided into a left game area (first game area) on the left side of the center in the left-right direction, and a right game area (second game area) on the right side. The manner in which the handle 72k is operated to shoot the game ball so that the game ball flows down the left game area is referred to as "left-handed hitting." On the other hand, the manner in which the handle 72k is operated to shoot the game ball so that the game ball flows down the right game area is referred to as "right-handed hitting". In the pachinko game machine PY1, the flow path through which the game ball can flow down when the game ball is fired with the left hand is called the first flow path R1, and the game ball can flow down when the game ball is fired with the right hand. The possible flow path is referred to as a second flow path R2. The first passage R1 and the second passage R2 are also constituted by a large number of game nails.

A first starting port 11 and two general winning ports 10 are provided on the first flow path R1. Therefore, the player can aim to win a prize in the first starting opening 11 or the general winning opening 10 by shooting the game ball so as to flow down the first channel R1 by hitting the ball to the left. On the other hand, on the second flow path R2, a second starting port 12, a gate 13, a first big winning port 14, and a second big winning port 15 are provided. Therefore, by firing the game ball so as to flow down the second flow path R2 by hitting right, the player can pass through the gate 13, enter the second starting opening 12, the first big winning opening 14, or the second You can aim to win the big prize opening 15.

In addition, game balls that did not enter any of the winning holes (first starting hole 11, second starting hole 12, general winning hole 10, first big winning hole 14, and second big winning hole 15), It is guided to the out port 19 and discharged. Further, the number of prize balls that are won in each winning hole can be set as appropriate.

Further, a display device 8 is arranged below and to the left of the game area 6 formed on the front surface of the game board 1 (a portion other than the game area 6). As shown in FIG. 4, the displays 8 include a special figure 1 display 81a that variably displays special figure 1, a special figure 2 display 81b that variably displays special figure 2, and a special figure 2 display 81b that variably displays general figure 1. A general figure display 82 is included. In addition, the display devices 8 include a special figure 1 pending display 83a that displays the number of special figure 1 pending (U1: the number of variable displays of special figure 1 on the special figure 1 display 81a), which will be described later. Also included is a special figure 2 pending display 83b that displays the number of special figure 2 pending (U2: the number of reserved special figures 2 that is variablely displayed by the special figure 2 indicator 81b), which will be described later.

The variable display of the special figure 1 is executed when the special figure 1 lottery is held in response to the landing of a game ball into the first starting port 11. Further, the variable display of the special figure 2 is executed when the special figure 2 lottery is held triggered by the winning of a game ball into the second starting port 12. In addition, in the following explanation, the special drawing 1 and the special drawing 2 are collectively called the special drawing, and the special drawing 1 lottery and the special drawing 2 drawing are collectively called the special drawing drawing. Moreover, the special figure 1 display 81a and the special figure 2 display 81b are collectively referred to as the special figure display 81. Furthermore, the special figure 1 reservation display 83a and the special figure 2 reservation display 83b are collectively referred to as the special figure reservation display 83.

The variable display of the special figure notifies the result of the special figure lottery. In the variable display of the special figure, the special figure is displayed variably and then stopped. The special figure that is stopped and displayed (stopped special figure, special figure derived and displayed as a display result of the variable display) is one special figure selected from a plurality of types of special figures by a special figure lottery. When the stopping special symbol is a predetermined specific special symbol (a special symbol with a specific stopping pattern, that is, a jackpot symbol), the grand prize opening (the first grand prize opening 14 and the second grand prize opening 15) is opened. A jackpot game (an example of a special game) is played.

The special figure display 81 is composed of, for example, eight LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) arranged side by side, and displays a special figure according to the result of the special figure lottery depending on the lighting mode. For example, if the result of the special drawing lottery is a jackpot (one of the multiple types of jackpots described below), the special drawing display 81 will display "□□■■□□■■" (□: lit, A jackpot symbol consisting of the lighting of the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th LEDs from the left is displayed, such as (: off). In addition, if the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss, the special drawing display 81 will display a losing pattern consisting of only the LED on the far right lighting up, such as "■■■■■■■□" do. Note that the lighting mode of the LED corresponding to the result of the special drawing lottery is not limited and can be set as appropriate. Therefore, for example, all the LEDs may be turned off as a losing symbol.

Further, in the variable display of the special figure, the variable display of the special figure is performed for a predetermined variable time before the special figure is stopped and displayed. The variable display mode of the special figure is, for example, a mode in which each LED lights up so that light repeatedly flows from left to right. Note that the manner of variable display of the special figure is not particularly limited, and may be set as appropriate, such as when all LEDs flash at once if each LED is not displayed in a stopped state (lit display in a specific manner).

By the way, in the pachinko game machine PY1, when a game ball hits the first starting port 11 or the second starting port 12, various random numbers (numerical information and judgment information) are generated for special drawing drawings, etc. example) may be obtained. These various random numbers are temporarily stored in a special figure reservation storage unit 105, which will be described later, as a special figure reservation. In addition, in the following, the various random numbers obtained by winning (balls entering) the game ball into the first starting port 11 are referred to as "special drawing 1 related random numbers", and the various random numbers obtained by winning the game ball into the second starting port 12 The various random numbers obtained by (ball entry) are referred to as "special map 2 related random numbers." Here, the special figure 1 related random number is stored in the special figure 1 reservation storage section 105a in the special figure reservation storage section 105 as the special figure 1 reservation. On the other hand, the special figure 2 related random number is stored in the special figure 2 reservation storage section 105b in the special figure reservation storage section 105 as the special figure 2 reservation. The number of special figure 1 reservations that can be stored in the special figure 1 reservation storage unit 105a (number of special figure 1 reservations) and the number of special figure 2 reservations that can be stored in the special figure 2 reservation storage unit 105b (number of special figure 2 reservations). It is possible to set an upper limit (for example, 4). In addition, hereinafter, the special map 1 reservation and the special map 2 reservation are collectively referred to as "special map reservation", and the number of special diagrams 1 and 2 reserved are collectively referred to as "the number of special diagrams reserved". In addition, the special figure 1 related random numbers and the special figure 2 related random numbers are collectively referred to as "special figure related random numbers."

In the pachinko game machine PY1, if the variable display of the special figure is not performed immediately after the game ball enters the first starting hole 11 or the second starting hole 12, specifically, while the variable display of the special figure is being executed. If a prize is won during execution of a jackpot game or a jackpot game, the variable display of the special drawing (or the right to draw the special drawing) for the winning can be reserved. The special figure reservation stored in the special figure reservation storage section 105 is consumed when variable display of the special figure based on the special figure reservation becomes possible. That is, extinguishing the special figure reservation means determining the special figure related random number etc. corresponding to the special figure reservation and executing variable display of the special figure to show the determination result.

Then, the special figure reservation number is displayed on the special figure reservation display 83. Each of the special figure 1 reservation display 83a and the special figure 2 reservation display 83b is composed of, for example, four LEDs, and displays the number of special symbols reserved by lighting up the LEDs for the number of special symbols reserved. Is possible.

In addition, the variable display of the general map notifies the result of the general map lottery. In the variable display of a general map, the general map is displayed variably and then stopped. The general map that is stopped and displayed (the stationary general map, the general map derived and displayed as a display result of the variable display) is one general map selected from among a plurality of types of general maps by lottery. If the stopped and displayed general figure is a predetermined specific ordinary figure (ordinary figure with a predetermined stop mode, that is, a winning symbol), an auxiliary game is performed in which the second starting port 12 (electric chew 12D) is opened. .

The common map display device 82 is composed of, for example, two LEDs, and displays the common map according to the result of the general map lottery depending on the lighting mode thereof. When the result of the common symbol lottery is a win, the common symbol display 82 displays a winning symbol consisting of both LEDs lighting up, such as "□□" (□: lit, ■: off). If the result of the lottery is a loss, a loss pattern such as "■□" consisting of only the right LED being lit is displayed. A mode may be adopted in which all the LEDs are turned off as a losing symbol. Note that the lighting mode of the LED corresponding to the result of the general drawing lottery is not limited and can be set as appropriate.

Further, before the regular map is stopped and displayed, the regular map is variablely displayed for a predetermined variable time. The mode of variable display of the ordinary map is, for example, a mode in which both LEDs are lit alternately.

3. Main games played by the gaming machine Next, main games played by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be explained using FIGS. 8 to 15.

3-1. Games related to common figures First, games related to common figures will be explained. The pachinko game machine PY1 performs a regular lottery when the fired game ball passes through the gate 13. When the general drawing lottery is performed, the normal drawing is displayed variably (variably displayed and then stopped) on the general drawing display 82. Here, the regular symbols that are stopped and displayed include winning symbols and losing symbols. In addition, the losing pattern of the regular pattern is also called "losing pattern" to distinguish it from the losing pattern of the special pattern described later. When the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is executed, and the game related to passing through the gate 13 ends. On the other hand, when the losing common map is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is not performed and the game related to passing through the gate 13 ends. In addition, hereinafter, the fact that the game ball passes through the gate 13 when the variable display of the normal pattern or the auxiliary game is not being played will be referred to as "establishment of the normal pattern fluctuation starting condition."

Pachinko game machine PY1 acquires a random number related to a common pattern when a basic pattern fluctuation starting condition is satisfied when performing such a series of games (general pattern lottery, variable display of normal pattern, auxiliary game). As shown in FIG. 8(A), the obtained ordinary symbol-related random numbers include ordinary symbol random numbers. The normal symbol random number is a random number (judgment information) for making a hit determination. Each random number has an appropriate range.

3-1-1. Win Determination The win determination is a determination for determining whether or not there is a win (whether or not to execute the auxiliary game) using one or more hit determination tables as shown in FIG. 9(A). The hit determination table can be associated with a gaming state that will be described later. In other words, the gaming state includes a non-time-saving state and a time-saving state, and the hit determination table used in the non-time-saving state (non-time-saving hit determination table) and the hit determination table used in the time-saving state (time-saving It is possible to distinguish between the hit determination table) and the hit determination table. In each hit determination table, determination values of normal symbol random numbers (normal symbol random number values) are assigned to hits and losses that are the results of the hit determination. Therefore, the pachinko game machine PY1 compares the acquired normal symbol random number with the hit determination table to determine whether it is a hit or a loss. Then, based on the result of the hit determination, a normal pattern variation pattern is determined for variable display of the normal pattern. If the result of the hit determination is a hit, basically the winning symbol is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the common symbol. On the other hand, if the result of the hit determination is a loss, basically the losing common map is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the common symbol. Furthermore, the winning probability can be changed as appropriate.

3-1-2. Ordinary figure fluctuation The ordinary figure fluctuation pattern determination is a determination for determining the ordinary figure fluctuation pattern using one or more ordinary figure fluctuation pattern determination tables as shown in FIG. 9(B). The ordinary figure fluctuation pattern is identification information regarding predetermined matters related to variable display of ordinary figures, such as ordinary figure fluctuation time.

The regular figure fluctuation pattern determination table can be associated with the gaming state. In other words, the regular figure fluctuation pattern determination table includes a regular figure fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time saving regular figure fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the non-time saving state, and a regular figure fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time saving regular figure fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the time saving state. It is possible to distinguish between the short-time regular pattern fluctuation pattern determination table) and the short-time regular pattern fluctuation pattern determination table.

Each ordinary figure fluctuation pattern determination table stores one ordinary figure fluctuation pattern, which is the result of ordinary figure fluctuation pattern determination, for each ordinary figure to be stopped. That is, the pachinko game machine PY1 is capable of making the normal pattern fluctuation time different between the non-time saving state and the time saving state. For example, in a non-time-saving state, for the variable display of common symbols when a losing common symbol (losing common symbol) is stopped and displayed, a common symbol fluctuation pattern is determined such that the common symbol fluctuation time is, for example, 30 seconds, and the winning symbol is Regarding the variable display of ordinary figures in the case where the ordinary figures are stopped and displayed, a general figure fluctuation pattern is determined in which the ordinary figure fluctuation time is, for example, 30 seconds. In addition, in the time saving state, for the variable display of common symbols when a losing common symbol is stopped and displayed, a common symbol fluctuation pattern is determined such that the common symbol fluctuation time is, for example, 5 seconds, and when the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, a common symbol fluctuation pattern is determined. Regarding the variable display of figures, a general figure fluctuation pattern is determined in which the ordinary figure fluctuation time is, for example, 5 seconds. A variable display of the ordinary figure of the ordinary figure fluctuation time associated with the ordinary figure fluctuation pattern determined by this determination is performed on the ordinary figure display 82. Further, these ordinary figure fluctuation times can be changed as appropriate. In this way, by performing the hit determination and the normal pattern variation pattern determination, the normal pattern is variably displayed on the normal pattern display 82.

3-1-3. Auxiliary Game The auxiliary game is a variable display of a common symbol, and is executed when a winning symbol is stopped and displayed (derived) as a display result (result of a common symbol lottery).

The auxiliary game includes elements constituting the auxiliary game (auxiliary game components), that is, various elements such as the number of times the electric chew 12D is opened and the opening time for each opening. Each of these elements is associated with a gaming state. Pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls the auxiliary game based on the game state using one or more auxiliary game control tables as shown in FIG. 9(C). The auxiliary game control table is associated with the game state. Each auxiliary game control table stores auxiliary game components. Further, the number of openings and opening time for each of these elements can be changed as appropriate.

The pachinko game machine PY1 can make the opening time of the electric chew 12D different between the auxiliary game in the non-time-saving state and the auxiliary game in the time-saving state. For example, in an auxiliary game in a non-time-saving state, the electric chew 12D is opened for a first opening time (a time during which it is difficult for the game ball to enter the electric chew 12D (for example, 0.08 seconds)). Note that, hereinafter, the auxiliary game in the non-time saving state is also referred to as the "short opening auxiliary game". In addition, in the auxiliary game in the time saving state, the electric chew 12D is opened for a second opening time that is longer than the first opening time (a time during which it is easy to make the game ball enter the electric chew 12D (for example, 3.00 seconds)). Open. Note that, hereinafter, the auxiliary game in the time saving state is also referred to as the "long opening auxiliary game".

3-2. Games Related to Special Figures Next, games related to special figures will be explained. The pachinko game machine PY1 performs a special drawing 1 lottery when the fired game ball enters the first starting slot 11. When the special figure 1 lottery is carried out, the special figure 1 is displayed variably on the special figure 1 display 81a (stop display after a variable display is performed) to notify the result of the special figure 1 lottery. Here, the special symbol 1 that is stopped and displayed includes a jackpot symbol and a losing symbol. That is, the results of the special drawing 1 lottery include jackpots and losses. When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is executed, a new gaming state is set, and the game based on the winning prize ends. On the other hand, when the losing symbols are stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not played and the game based on the winning prize ends.

Similarly, the pachinko game machine PY1 performs a special drawing 2 lottery when the fired game ball enters the second starting slot 12. When the special figure 2 lottery is performed, the special figure 2 is displayed variably (stopped after being displayed variablely) on the special figure 2 display 81b to notify the result of the special figure 2 lottery. Here, the special symbols 2 that are stopped and displayed include jackpot symbols and losing symbols. That is, the result of the special drawing 2 lottery includes a jackpot and a loss. When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is executed, a new gaming state is set, and the game based on the winning prize ends. On the other hand, when the losing symbols are stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not played and the game based on the winning prize ends.

In addition, below, when a game ball enters the first starting port 11, it is referred to as "establishment of the first starting condition", and when a gaming ball enters the second starting port 12, it is referred to as "establishment of the second starting condition". That's what it means. Further, "the first starting condition is met" and "the second starting condition is met" are collectively referred to as "the starting condition is met." In addition, the losing symbols of the special symbols are also referred to as "losing special symbols" to distinguish them from the losing symbols of the above-mentioned ordinary symbols.

Pachinko game machine PY1 acquires a special pattern-related random number when a starting condition is established in order to play a series of games (special pattern drawing, variable display of special pattern, jackpot game, and setting of gaming state). Perform various judgments regarding random numbers. As shown in FIG. 8(B), the special pattern related random numbers to be acquired include special pattern random numbers (jackpot random numbers), jackpot pattern type random numbers, reach random numbers, and special pattern fluctuation pattern random numbers. The special symbol random number is a random number for determining a jackpot. The jackpot symbol type random number is a random number for determining the jackpot symbol type. The reach random number is a random number for determining reach. The special symbol variation pattern random number is a random number for determining the variation pattern of the special symbol. Each random number has an appropriate range. Note that the random number is sometimes referred to as determination information.

3-2-1. Jackpot Judgment Jackpot Judgment is a judgment for determining whether or not it is a jackpot (whether or not to execute a jackpot game) using one or more jackpot judgment tables as shown in FIG. 10(A). The gaming states include a normal probability state and a high probability state, and the jackpot determination table is associated with whether the game is in the normal probability state or the high probability state. That is, as a jackpot judgment table, it is possible to distinguish between a jackpot judgment table used in a normal probability state (normal probability jackpot judgment table) and a jackpot judgment table used in a high probability state (high probability jackpot judgment table). It is possible.

In each jackpot determination table, special symbol random number determination values (special symbol random number values) are assigned to jackpots and losses that are the results of the jackpot determination. The pachinko game machine PY1 compares the acquired special symbol random number with the jackpot determination table to determine whether it is a jackpot or a loss. As shown in FIG. 10(A), the high probability jackpot determination table has more special symbol random number determination values that are determined to be a jackpot than the normal probability jackpot determination table. Furthermore, the probability of winning a jackpot can be changed as appropriate.

3-2-2. Jackpot symbol type determination Jackpot symbol type determination is performed when the result of jackpot determination is a jackpot, using one or more jackpot symbol type determination tables as shown in FIG. 10(B). ). For each type of jackpot symbol, it is possible to associate the content of the jackpot, in other words, the constituent elements of the jackpot consisting of game benefits given to the player.

The jackpot symbol type determination table is associated with the type of the special symbol that is variably displayed, in other words, the type of the starting opening where the prize was won due to the jackpot symbol type determination (which caused the jackpot symbol type determination to occur). is possible. That is, as the jackpot symbol type determination table, there is a jackpot symbol type determination table (first jackpot symbol type determination table) used when performing the variable display of special figure 1, and a jackpot symbol type determination table used when performing the variable display of special figure 2. It is possible to distinguish between the symbol type determination table (second jackpot symbol type determination table).

There are multiple types of jackpot symbols, and in each jackpot symbol type determination table, the judgment value of the jackpot symbol type random number (jackpot symbol type random number value) is assigned to the jackpot symbol type that is the result of the jackpot symbol type determination. There is. Therefore, the pachinko game machine PY1 compares the acquired jackpot symbol type random number with the jackpot symbol type determination table to determine the type of jackpot symbol. In the first jackpot symbol type determination table and the second jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type random values are appropriately distributed to various jackpot symbols. Further, the distribution rate of the jackpot symbol type can be changed as appropriate. Furthermore, the types of jackpot symbols can be increased or decreased as appropriate.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10(B), the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type based on the jackpot symbol type determination for special symbol 1 is set to 50% for jackpot symbol X and 50% for jackpot symbol Y, and for special symbol 2. It is possible for the jackpot symbol Z to make the distribution rate of the jackpot symbol type 100% based on the jackpot symbol type determination. In this way, the jackpot symbol type is determined in the special drawing 1 lottery, which is held when a game ball enters the first starting opening 11, and the special drawing 2 drawing, which is held when a gaming ball enters the second starting opening 12. It is possible to have different fractions.

3-2-3. Reach Judgment Reach judgment determines whether or not to generate a reach with the special symbol variation effect described later, using one or more reach judgment tables as shown in FIG. 10(C) when the result of the jackpot judgment is a loss. This is a judgment to determine whether

The reach determination table can be associated with the gaming state. In other words, the reach determination table is distinguished between a reach determination table used in a non-time saving state (non-time saving reach determination table) and a reach determination table used in a time saving state (time saving reach determination table). Is possible.

In each reach determination table, the reach random number determination value (reach random value) is assigned to the reach determination results, ``with reach (reach occurs)'' and ``no reach (reach does not occur)''. . Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 compares the obtained reach random number with the reach determination table to determine whether there is a reach or no reach (whether or not to generate a reach). As shown in FIG. 10(C), it is possible to vary the number of reach random values that are determined to be "reach exists" (reach occurs) in the non-time-saving reach determination table and the time-saving reach determination table. It is. In addition, in the following, "with reach (generates reach)", which is performed on the premise that the result of the jackpot determination is "loss", is referred to as "loss with reach", and "without reach (does not cause reach)" is referred to as "loss with reach". )” is sometimes referred to as “no-reach loss.”

3-2-4. Special pattern fluctuation To determine the special pattern fluctuation pattern, use one or more special pattern fluctuation pattern determination tables (special pattern fluctuation pattern determination table) as shown in Figures 11 and 12 to determine the fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special pattern (Special figure fluctuation pattern) This is a judgment to determine the special figure fluctuation pattern, and is carried out in both cases where the result of the jackpot judgment is a jackpot or a loss. The special figure variation pattern is identification information for identifying predetermined matters regarding the special figure variation time and the production flow (production content) of the special figure variation production described later. In addition, the special figure fluctuation pattern can include identification information regarding the result of jackpot determination and the result of reach determination, in addition to the special figure fluctuation time and the production flow (performance content) of the special symbol variation performance. As the special figure variation pattern, it is possible to use a plurality of types of special figure variation patterns each having different identification information, and the number thereof can be changed as appropriate.

The special figure variation pattern determination table can be associated with the type of special symbol that is variablely displayed as the target of determination, in other words, the type of starting opening where a winning is made due to the special figure variation pattern determination. That is, as a special figure variation pattern judgment table, there is a special figure variation pattern judgment table (special figure 1 variation pattern judgment table: Figure 11) used when performing variable display of special figure 1, and a variable display of special figure 2. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure variation pattern determination table (special figure 2 variation pattern determination table: FIG. 12) that is sometimes used.

Each special figure fluctuation pattern determination table can also be associated with the gaming state. In other words, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table includes a special figure 1 variation pattern determination table (non-time saving special figure 1 variation pattern determination table) used in the non-time saving state, and a special figure 1 variation pattern determination table used in the time saving state. It is possible to distinguish between the fluctuation pattern determination table (time-saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table). On the other hand, regarding the special figure 2 variation pattern judgment table, there is also a special figure 2 variation pattern judgment table used in the non-time saving state (special figure 2 variation pattern judgment table for non-time saving) and a special figure 2 variation pattern judgment table used in the time saving state. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table (time-saving special figure 2 variation pattern determination table).

Further, each special symbol fluctuation pattern determination table associated with the gaming state can be further associated with a jackpot determination result, a jackpot symbol type determination result, or a reach determination result. That is, the non-time-saving special figure 1 variation pattern determination table and the non-time-saving special figure 2 variation pattern determination table each include one for jackpot (for each jackpot symbol type), one for loss with reach, and one for loss without reach. Similarly, the time-saving special figure 1 variation pattern determination table and the time-saving special figure 2 variation pattern determination table each include one for jackpot (for each jackpot symbol type), one for loss with reach, and one for loss without reach.

Furthermore, each special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for no reach loss can also be associated with the number of reserved special figures. For example, there is a special pattern 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table for no-reach loss that is used when the number of reserved special symbols 1 (U1) is 0 to 2, and a table that is used when the number of reserved special symbols 1 (U1) is 3 to 4. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for no-reach misses. In addition, each special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for no-reach loss can also be associated with the number of reserved special figures. For example, the special pattern 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table for no reach loss is used when the special pattern 2 reservation number (U2) is 0 to 2, and the special pattern 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table is used when the special pattern 2 reservation number (U2) is 3 to 4. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for no-reach loss.

Then, the special figure display device 81 performs a variable display of the special figure of the special figure variation time according to the special figure variation pattern determined by each special figure variation pattern determination. Then, when the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed as a display result (result of the special symbol lottery) in the variable display of the special symbol, the next variable display of the special symbol is not immediately performed, and the jackpot game is subsequently executed. Ru.

Further, each special figure variation pattern can be associated with a production flow of a special figure variation production as shown in the second column from the right in the table of FIGS. 11 and 12.

In addition, as shown in the rightmost column of the tables in Figures 11 and 12, names can be attached to the special figure fluctuation patterns in association with the special figure (jackpot determination result) and the production content of the special figure fluctuation effect. be. For example, a special pattern fluctuation pattern related to a jackpot is called a "jackpot fluctuation." On the other hand, a special pattern fluctuation pattern in which SP reach, which is a type of reach, is performed in a loss with reach is called "SP loss fluctuation", and a special pattern in which L reach, which is a type of reach, is performed in loss with reach. The figure variation pattern is called "L loss variation", and the special figure variation pattern in which the special figure variation effect ends with N reach, which is a type of reach, is called "N loss variation", which is a loss with reach and no reach. Such a special pattern variation pattern is referred to as a "normal loss variation."

3-2-5. Pre-reading determination Pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs pre-reading determination using one or more pre-reading determination tables as shown in FIG. 13, based on the acquired special figure related random numbers. The look-ahead determination includes, for example, determining whether the special symbol random number is determined to be a jackpot in the jackpot determination, determining which jackpot symbol type the jackpot symbol type random number is determined to be in the jackpot symbol type determination, and determining whether the special symbol random number is determined to be a jackpot in the jackpot symbol type determination. There is a determination as to which special figure variation pattern the figure variation pattern random number is determined to be in the special figure variation pattern determination. The pre-reading determination table can be associated with the type of starting opening related to the starting prize. That is, as the pre-reading determination table, there is a pre-reading determination table (first pre-reading determination table) when a prize is won in the first starting opening 11, and a pre-reading determining table (second pre-reading determination table) when winning in the second starting opening 12. , it is possible to distinguish between

Further, the pre-reading determination table can also be associated with the gaming state. In other words, the look-ahead determination table is distinguished between a look-ahead decision table used in a non-time-saving state (non-time-saving look-ahead decision table) and a look-ahead decision table used in a time-saving state (time-saving look-ahead decision table). Is possible.

In other words, the look-ahead determination table includes a first look-ahead decision table used in a non-time-saving state, a first look-ahead decision table used in a time-saving state, and a second look-ahead decision table used in a non-time save state. It is possible to distinguish between the second prefetch determination table used in the time saving state and the second prefetch determination table used in the time saving state. Note that what kind of determination is included in the prefetch determination can be changed as appropriate.

3-3. Jackpot Game Next, the jackpot game will be explained. A jackpot game consists of multiple round games involving the opening and closing of the jackpot (first jackpot 14 or second jackpot 15), and a round game from the start of the jackpot until the start of the first round. It includes an opening (also written as OP) and an ending (also written as ED) from the end of the final round game until the end of the jackpot game. Each round game starts with the end of the opening or the end of the previous round game, and ends with the start of the next round game or the start of the ending. Furthermore, it is possible to not provide OP and ED. Note that hereinafter, a predetermined number of round games (in a predetermined order) will be simply referred to as a "round." For example, the first round game is called "1 round (1R)," and the 10th round game is called "10 rounds (10R)."

The elements constituting such a jackpot game (jackpot game constituent elements) include the number of round games, the number of openings of the big winning hole (first big winning hole 14 or second big winning hole 15) in each round game, Includes the type and opening time of each opening (opening pattern), the time to be closed until the next opening (closing time), the opening time (opening time), and the ending time (ending time). ing. After the special symbols are stopped and displayed, the pachinko game machine PY1 controls the jackpot game using one or more jackpot game control tables as shown in FIG. The jackpot game control table stores jackpot game components for each jackpot game. As the jackpot game, it is possible to control one or more types of jackpot games.

For example, as shown in FIG. 14, from 1R to 10R, the first big winning hole 14 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, or the first big winning hole 14 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 seconds. An open round game will be played. In 10R (final round), a round game in which the second grand prize opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, or a round game in which the second grand prize opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 seconds is played. It will be done. In addition, in each round game, when a predetermined number of game balls (for example, 10) are detected by the big winning hole sensor, even before the maximum opening time of the big winning holes 14 and 15 has elapsed, End the round game.

Further, the number of times and time for each element can be changed as appropriate. Further, the jackpot game can be played using both the first big winning hole 14 and the second big winning hole 15, or only one of them.

Here, the specific area 16 will be explained in detail. The specific area 16 has a closed state in which prizes cannot be won and an open state in which prizes can be won by the distribution member 16k, so the operating mode of the distribution member 16k can be said to be the opening and closing mode of the specific area 16. In the following, the operating mode of the distribution member 16k will also be referred to as the "opening/closing mode of the specific area 16." In this way, the distribution member 16k is controlled in a constant operating manner (the specific area 16 is opened/closed in a constant manner), but the distribution member 16k is controlled in a constant operational manner (the specific area 16 is opened/closed in a constant manner). In combination with the opening/closing mode of the second big prize opening 15 in the jackpot game, the difficulty (ease) of letting the game ball enter the specific area 16 in the jackpot game is set. Note that, hereinafter, the state in which the specific region 16 is in an open state is also referred to as "V open".

For 15 seconds after the opening of the second big prize opening starts, the distribution solenoid 16s is energized, and the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state (FIG. 3(B)). Therefore, in a round game in which the second big prize opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, the opening time and timing of the second big prize opening 15, the time and the period during which the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state. From the relationship with the timing, it is easy for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (to cause the game ball to enter the specific area 16). On the other hand, in a round game in which the second big winning hole 15 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 seconds, the opening time and timing of the second big winning hole 15, and the time and timing during which the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state. Due to the relationship with timing, it is almost impossible (difficult) for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (to cause the game ball to enter the specific area 16). In this way, during the jackpot game, the VAT opening/closing member is used in the first opening pattern (V long opening pattern) that allows the game ball to easily pass through the specific area 16 (hereinafter also referred to as "V passage"). The VAT opening/closing member 15k and the distribution member 16k operate in a jackpot game in which the game ball 15k and the distribution member 16k operate, and in a second opening pattern (V short opening pattern) in which it is impossible or difficult for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16. It is possible to execute a jackpot game. A jackpot game in which the VAT opening/closing member 15k and the distribution member 16k operate in the V-long opening pattern as described above is called a "V-long jackpot." On the other hand, a jackpot game in which the VAT opening/closing member 15k and the distribution member 16k operate in a V-short opening pattern is referred to as a "V-short jackpot."

3-4. Game State Next, the game state will be explained. As shown in FIG. 15, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 has "low probability low base gaming state", "low probability high base gaming state", "high probability low base gaming state", "high probability high base gaming state", and " It is possible to set the game state to any one of the "jackpot game state". In addition, "low probability low base gaming state" is referred to as "low probability low base state", "low probability high base gaming state" is referred to as "low probability high base state", and "high probability low base gaming state" is referred to as "high probability". The "low base state" and the "high probability high base gaming state" can be respectively abbreviated as the "high probability high base state." The gaming states include a state related to the probability of being determined to be a "big hit" in the jackpot determination, and a state related to the ease of opening the electric chew 12D. The former includes a normal probability state and a high probability state. On the other hand, the latter includes a non-time saving state and a time saving state.

The normal probability state is set in the "low probability low base gaming state" or the "low probability high base gaming state", and is a state in which the probability of being determined to be a jackpot in the jackpot determination is the normal probability. The high probability state is set in the "high probability low base gaming state" or the "high probability high base gaming state", and is a state in which the probability of being determined to be a jackpot in the jackpot determination is higher than the normal probability. Therefore, it can be said that the high probability state is more advantageous to the player than the normal probability state. When the pachinko game machine PY1 is powered on for the first time, a normal probability state is set. Then, by winning the jackpot, it becomes possible to switch from the normal probability state to the high probability state. For example, in a jackpot game, when the game ball passes through the specific area 16, it is possible to switch to a high probability state. It is also possible to switch to a high probability state depending on the type of jackpot symbol. The high probability state can be switched from the high probability state to the normal probability state by performing jackpot determination a predetermined number of times without winning a jackpot or by winning the next jackpot.

The non-time saving state is set in a "low probability low base gaming state", "high probability low base gaming state" or "jackpot gaming state". The time saving state is set in the "low probability high base gaming state" or the "high probability high base gaming state", and is a gaming state in which the opening time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game is likely to be longer than in the non-time saving state. It is. For example, in the time saving state, the opening time of the electric chew 12D is longer (for example, 3.00 seconds) than the opening time (for example, 0.08 seconds) of the electric chew 12D in the non-time saving state. In addition, in the time-saving state, the special pattern fluctuation pattern judgment is performed using a special pattern fluctuation pattern determination table that is set so that the special pattern fluctuation pattern with a short special pattern fluctuation time is selected more often than in the non-time-saving state. It is also possible to do so (see FIGS. 11 and 12). As a result, in the time-saving state, the pace at which the reserved special drawings are consumed becomes faster, and effective winnings in the starting opening (winnings that can be stored as reserved special drawings) are more likely to occur. Therefore, players can aim for a jackpot while the game progresses smoothly.

Further, in the time saving state, it is possible to easily make the normal pattern fluctuation time shorter than in the non-time saving state. For example, in the time saving state, a regular pattern fluctuation time (5 seconds) is determined which is shorter than the regular pattern fluctuation time (30 seconds) determined in the non-time saving state. Therefore, in the short time state, the number of times the regular lottery is executed per unit time is greater.

Further, in the time-saving state, it is possible to make it easier to determine a hit in the hit determination compared to the non-time-saving state. For example, in a time-saving state, a win is determined with a higher probability (for example, 59936/65536) than in a non-time-saving state (for example, 6600/65536). Therefore, in the time saving state, the number of times that a hit is determined to be a hit per unit time is greater.

In this way, in the time-saving state, the opening time of the electric chew 12D per unit time is longer than in the non-time-saving state, making it easier for game balls to enter the second starting port 12 frequently. As a result, the base, which is the ratio of the number of prize balls to the number of fired balls, increases. Therefore, in a time-saving state where the base is high, it is possible to aim for a jackpot without significantly reducing the number of game balls in possession. Therefore, it can be said that the time-saving state is more advantageous to the player than the non-time-saving state.

When the pachinko game machine PY1 is powered on for the first time, a non-time saving state is set. For example, by winning a jackpot, a time saving state can be set. The time-saving state can be changed from a time-saving state to a non-time-saving state by performing jackpot determination a predetermined number of times without winning a jackpot, or by winning the next jackpot.

In addition, in the time saving state, compared to the non-time saving state, it is easier to win a prize, the normal pattern fluctuation time is more likely to be shortened, and the opening time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game is more likely to be longer. Three points are set to be advantageous to the player regarding the game related to the common map. However, only some of these points may be set advantageously for this player.

The gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine PY1 after it is powered on for the first time is a "low probability low base gaming state" in which a normal probability state and a non-time saving state are set. This gaming state is also referred to as a "normal gaming state." In addition, in the "jackpot game state", a hit determination is performed but a jackpot determination is not performed, so a non-time saving state is set with the start of the jackpot game. Furthermore, regarding the gaming states, it is possible to use all or only some of the gaming states described above.

4. Main performances performed by the gaming machine Next, the main performances performed by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be explained using FIGS. 16 to 22.

4-1. Production Mode First, the production mode will be explained. The production mode is a division of production (or a superordinate attribute). The pachinko game machine PY1 can set a customer waiting performance mode, a normal performance mode, a variable probability performance mode, a time-saving performance mode, and a jackpot performance mode as performance modes.

In the customer waiting production mode, special symbol fluctuation production is performed in "low probability low base gaming state", "low probability high base gaming state", "high probability low base gaming state" and "high probability high base gaming state". This is a production mode that can be set when there is no special figure variation production and indicates that it is in a standby state where no special symbol variation production is being performed. When the customer waiting performance mode is set, a customer waiting performance (hereinafter also referred to as a demonstration performance) is performed. In the customer waiting performance, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (A-1), on the display unit 50a, there is a selection standby for making settings related to the performance of the pachinko game machine PY1 (volume adjustment, customization of the LOGO performance described later, etc.). Image G200 is displayed. Settings related to the performance include setting the volume of the sound output from the speaker 52, customizing the jackpot expectation level of the LOGO cut-in notice on the display section 50a, and jackpot expectation of the movable body performance using the movable devices 55, 56, and 58. There are customizations such as degrees. In addition, brightness setting (“light amount setting”) of the display unit 50a, etc. may be included. Further, as shown in FIG. 16(A-2), a customer waiting demo image G202 different from the selection waiting image 200 may also be displayed. The customer waiting demonstration image G202 is an image that can be produced using the characteristics of the pachinko game machine PY1, such as the appearance of the main character of the pachinko game machine PY1. This makes it possible to increase the interest in the customer waiting performance mode and to make the pachinko game machine PY1 stand out in the gaming parlor where it is installed.

The normal production mode can be set when a special symbol variation production is being performed in the "low probability low base gaming state" or the "high probability low base gaming state", and is a production mode that indicates a non-time saving state. be. For example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-1), the normal presentation mode includes a first normal presentation mode in which a background image representing a daytime mountain scene (normal daytime background image G102) is displayed on the display unit 50a. 16(B-2), a second normal effect mode in which a background image representing an evening mountain scene (evening normal background image G103) is displayed on the display unit 50a, and FIG. 16(B-2). As shown in -3), there is a third normal performance mode in which a background image representing a mountain scenery at night (normal nighttime background image G104) is displayed on the display section 50a, and the player can play 1 without winning the jackpot. It can be switched on the condition that the special figure variation effect is performed once or multiple times. Furthermore, each of the first to third normal performance modes includes a normal first stage performance mode before the reach is established in the special symbol variation performance, and a normal second stage performance mode after the reach is established. In the normal first stage production mode, any one of the daytime normal background image G102, the evening normal background image G103, and the nighttime normal background image G104 is displayed on the display section 50a, but in the normal second stage production mode, depending on the type of reach A dedicated background image will be displayed. Further, a special effect mode may be provided that is set only in the "high probability low base game state".

The probability variable production mode is a production mode that can be set when a special symbol variation production is performed in the "high probability high base game state", and is a production mode that indicates a high probability state and a time saving state. In the probability variation effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-4), a background image representing the universe (probability variation background image G105) is displayed on the display section 50a. Furthermore, the probability variable performance mode includes a probability variable first stage performance mode before the reach is established in the special symbol fluctuation performance, and a probability variable second stage performance mode after the reach is established. In the probability variable first stage production mode, the probability variation background image G105 is displayed on the display section 50a, but in the probability variation second stage production mode, a dedicated background image according to the type of reach is displayed.

The time-saving performance mode is a performance mode that can be set when the special symbol variation performance is being performed in the "low probability high base game state", and is a performance mode that indicates the normal probability state and the time-saving state. In the time-saving effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-5), a background image representing the sky (time-saving background image G106) is displayed on the display section 50a. Furthermore, the time-saving performance mode includes a time-saving first stage performance mode before the reach is established in the special symbol variation performance, and a time-saving second stage performance mode after the reach is established. In the time-saving first performance mode, the time-saving background image G106 is displayed on the display section 50a, but in the time-saving second stage performance mode, a dedicated background image according to the type of reach is displayed.

The jackpot production mode is a production mode that can be set when a jackpot game is being played in the "jackpot game state", and is a production mode that indicates that a jackpot game is being played. In the jackpot performance mode, for example, during the opening of a jackpot game, as shown in FIG. A jackpot opening performance in which the winning image G108 is displayed is performed. During a round in a jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-2), a round image G109 indicating the number of rounds and a prize ball number image G110 indicating the number of prize balls paid out are displayed on the display unit 50a. A round performance will be held. During the ending of the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-3), on the display section 50a, an ending image G111 indicating the performance mode to be set after the jackpot game and the total number of prize balls that have been paid out are displayed. A jackpot ending effect is performed in which the total prize ball count image G112 is displayed.

Note that the types of production modes can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-2. Special Figure Variation Effect Next, the special figure variation effect (also simply referred to as "variation effect") will be explained. When the variable display of the special pattern starts, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 displays the special pattern variation pattern related to the variable display of the special pattern and the special pattern lottery result (jackpot determination result, jackpot symbol type determination result, reach determination result, and A special figure variation effect is executed based on the special figure variation pattern determination result). In the special symbol variation performance, a variation display of performance symbols is performed on the display unit 50a in a manner superimposed on a predetermined background image. The production design is composed of, for example, number symbols from 1 to 9, and in the variable display of the production design, the production design changes with the start of the variable display of the special pattern, and the production pattern changes with the end of the variable display of the special pattern. stops. That is, after the special symbol fluctuation time and the variable display of the performance symbols are performed, the fluctuations are stopped and the static display of the performance symbols is performed. Then, the result of the special drawing lottery is announced by the stop display of the performance symbols.

In addition, in the special figure variation production, in addition to the variable display of production symbols, there are various displays such as the image display device 50, the speaker 52, the frame lamp 53, the panel lamp 54, the movable devices 55, 56, 58, the normal button 40, the special button 41, etc. It is possible to perform other performances using similar performance equipment. In this case, even after the performance symbols are stopped and displayed, it is possible to continue performing other performances.

4-2-1. Effect pattern display area As shown in FIG. 17(A), the display part 50a of the image display device 50 has left effects on the left, center, and right sides of the display area 50a, which is divided approximately equally into three parts in the horizontal direction. It is possible to provide a symbol area 50b1, a middle performance symbol area 50b2, and a right performance symbol area 50b3. The left performance symbol area 50b1 is an area where the left performance symbol EZ1 is displayed when the performance symbol is stopped and displayed in the special symbol variation performance. Similarly, the middle performance symbol area 50b2 and the right performance symbol region 50b3 are areas for displaying the middle performance symbol EZ2 and the right performance symbol EZ3.

Further, as shown in FIG. 17(A), it is possible to provide a small pattern area 50c in one section of the left end (upper left corner) of the upper end of the display section 50a. The small symbol area 50c is an area where the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are variably displayed when the special symbol is variably displayed. The small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are composed of numerical symbols 1 to 9, for example.

In addition, in FIG. 17(A), the left presentation pattern area 50b1, the middle presentation pattern area 50b2, the right presentation pattern area 50b3, and the small pattern area 50c are clearly indicated by two-dot chain lines, but this is the left presentation pattern area 50b1. , the middle effect pattern area 50b2, the right effect pattern area 50b3, and the small pattern area 50c are described to represent the range, and are not actually displayed.

4-2-2. Normal variation Pachinko gaming machine PY1 can first perform normal variation in the special figure variation performance. The normal variation functions as an effect that suggests that the variable display of the special figure has started.

When the variable display of the special symbols starts, for example, as shown in FIG. 17(A), the left effect pattern EZ1, the middle effect pattern EZ2, and the right effect pattern EZ3 are stopped and displayed on the display section 50a, and From the state where the small left pattern KZ1, the small medium pattern KZ2, and the small right pattern KZ3 are stopped and displayed, the variable display of the special pattern is not performed, and the variable display of the special pattern is waiting, as shown in FIG. 17(B) As shown in FIG. 2, with the start of the process, variable display of performance symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 is started, and variable display of small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is also started. Note that "↓" in FIG. 17 indicates that the symbol is being displayed in a variable manner. Then, when the special symbol variation pattern of the variable display of this special symbol is, for example, "normal loss variation", the left production symbol EZ1 and the right production symbol EZ3 are different, as shown in FIG. 17 (C-1). After temporarily stopping in a stop mode, the performance symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode (so-called flop) that suggests a loss, as shown in FIG. 17(D). At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stopping manner that suggests a loss. There are multiple types of stopping patterns that indicate a loss, such as "1, 1, 2" and "2, 4, 6", in which the left and right symbols are not the same. On the other hand, if the special symbol variation pattern of the variable display of the special symbol is a special symbol variation pattern with a reach, such as "N loss variation", as shown in FIG. 17 (C-2), the left production symbol EZ1 and the right effect pattern EZ3 temporarily stop in the same stopping manner (so-called reach eye), and reach is established. At this time, the variable display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is continued, and a reach effect is performed according to the special symbol variation pattern. Note that the stopping order and stopping manner of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 can be changed as appropriate.

4-2-3. N-Reach Pachinko gaming machine PY1 is capable of performing N-Reach when a reach is established in the normal variation. N reach is a performance that suggests that the result of the jackpot determination may be a "jackpot", and functions as a performance to make the player expect a jackpot.

In N reach, as shown in FIG. 18(A), the state in which reach is established is maintained for a predetermined period of time (for example, 10 seconds), and as shown in FIG. 18(B), the fluctuation speed of the medium effect symbol EZ2 gradually changes. It slows down. If the special symbol variation pattern of the variable display of the special symbol is, for example, "N loss variation", as shown in FIG. Symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stopping manner that suggests a miss in the reach. There are a plurality of types of stopping patterns that suggest a miss in the reach, such as "7, 6, 7" and "5, 3, 5", in which the left and right symbols are the same and the inner symbol is different from the left and right symbols. On the other hand, if the special pattern fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special pattern is, for example, "N jackpot fluctuation", the game will stop in a stopping manner (so-called double) that suggests a jackpot, as shown in Figure 18 (C-2). indicate. There are multiple types of stopping patterns that suggest a jackpot, such as "7.7.7" and "2.2.2", in which the symbols in the left and right middles are the same. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stopping manner that suggests a jackpot. In addition, the performance content of N reach is not limited to the gradual deceleration of the medium performance symbol EZ2, but can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-2-4. SP Reach Pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform SP Reach after N Reach. The SP reach is a performance that suggests that the possibility that the result of the jackpot determination is a "big win" is higher than the N reach, and functions as a performance to make the player expect a jackpot.

In SP reach, after N reach, for example, as shown in FIG. An image (SP reach start title image) G1 representing that reach has started is displayed. After that, as shown in FIG. 19(B), an SP reach-only performance (for example, a battle performance) is performed. Then, when the final phase of the SP reach-only performance is reached, if the special pattern fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special symbol is, for example, "SP jackpot fluctuation", the display section At 50a, a production that suggests a jackpot (for example, a display in which the main character is happy after winning the battle) is performed, and the production patterns EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 stop in a stop mode that suggests a jackpot (so-called double eye). indicate. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stopping manner that suggests a jackpot. On the other hand, if the special pattern variation pattern of the variable display of the special pattern is, for example, "SP loss variation", as shown in Figure 19 (C-2), there will be an effect that suggests a loss (for example, an enemy character enters the battle). At the same time, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode that suggests a loss of reach. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all at once in a stopping manner that suggests a loss. Note that the contents of the SP reach performance can be changed or added as appropriate.

Here, the possibility that the performance symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 for each reach will be stopped in a manner indicating a jackpot (jackpot expectation level) will be explained in detail. The jackpot expectation level for each reach is determined by the execution probability based on the jackpot determination result. For example, if the execution probability of N Reach is 10% when the jackpot determination result is "Lose" and 100% when the jackpot determination result is "Jackpot", the execution probability of SP Reach is If the result of the jackpot judgment is "Lose", it is set to 4%, and if the result of the jackpot judgment is "Jackpot", it is set to 100%, then the jackpot expectation of SP reach is higher than the jackpot expectation of N reach. It is possible to set it higher. In addition, SP Reach A and SP Reach B are made executable as SP Reach, and the execution probability of SP Reach A is set to 2% if the result of the jackpot determination is "Lose", and if the result of the Jackpot determination is "Lose", the execution probability of SP Reach A is set to 2%. If the probability of executing SP Reach B is set to 20% in the case of , the execution probability of SP Reach B will be set to 2% if the result of the jackpot determination is "Lose", and 30% if the result of the jackpot determination is "Lose". For example, it is possible to set the jackpot expectation level of SP Reach B higher than the jackpot expectation level of SP Reach A. In this way, by appropriately setting the execution probability according to the result of the jackpot determination, it is possible to set the jackpot expectation level.

4-3. Pending Icon Display Area The display unit 50a of the image display device 50 can be provided with a pending icon display area 50d consisting of four display areas, as shown in FIG. 20(A). The reservation icon display area 50d is composed of a first display area 50d1, a second display area 50d2, a third display area 50d3, and a fourth display area 50d4. It is possible to display the hold icon HA in the display areas 50d1, 50d2, 50d3, and 50d4. For example, when the number of reserved special figures 1 is "1", the reserved icon HA is displayed in the first display area 50d1, and when the number of reserved special figures 1 is "2", the reserved icon HA is displayed in the first display area 50d1 and A hold icon HA is displayed in the second display area 50d2.

Further, as shown in FIG. 20(A), an icon display area 50e consisting of one display area can be provided near the pending icon display area 50d. The icon display area 50e can display the icon TA, which is the same as or different from the pending icon HA, in response to the start of the special figure variation effect.

Note that the number of display areas constituting the pending icon display area 50d can be changed as appropriate. Further, the reservation icon display area 50d can be used as a display area that displays both the number of special drawings 1 and the number of reserved special drawings 2, or can be used as a display area that displays only one of them.

4-3-1. Hold Performance Pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform hold performance in response to a game ball entering the first starting slot 11 or the second starting slot 12. The reservation performance can notify the player of the number of special symbols 1 or 2 reserved.

In the hold effect, when the game ball enters the first starting slot 11 when the special figure 1 hold count is "0", the special figure fluctuation effect is started, and for example, as shown in FIG. 20(B), the icon The icon TA is displayed in the display area 50e. Then, when two more game balls enter the first starting slot 11 during the special figure variation performance, as shown in FIG. 20(C), the first display area 50d1 and the second display area of the reserved icon display area 50d A hold icon HA is displayed at 50d2, and the player is informed that the special figure 1 hold count is "2". After that, when the special figure variation effect is finished and a new special figure variation effect is started, as shown in FIG. 20(D), the hold icon displayed in the first display area 50d1 of the hold icon display area 50d HA moves to the icon display area 50e and is displayed as the icon TA, and the hold icon HA that was displayed in the second display area 50d2 of the hold icon display area 50d moves to the first display area 50d1 and is displayed. Then, the player is informed that the special figure 1 pending number is "1".

4-4. Preview Performance The pachinko game machine PY1 can perform a preview performance at any timing during the special figure variation performance. The preview performance is a performance using the image display device 50, the speaker 52, the frame lamp 53, the board lamp 54, the movable devices 55, 56, 58, the input devices 40, 41, etc., and includes the results of jackpot determination and the special pattern fluctuation pattern. It is possible to suggest the result of the judgment.

4-4-1. Movable Body Performance The pachinko game machine PY1 is capable of performing a movable body performance using the movable devices 55, 56, and 58 as a preview performance. The movable body performance is a performance that operates the movable devices 55, 56, and 58, and functions as a performance to make the player expect a big win.

In the movable object performance, for example, when N reach progresses to SP reach, as shown in FIG. It is suggested that the lower movable body 56k moves so as to overlap with the display section 50a as seen from the player, leading to SP reach. At this time, the effect image is displayed in a space of the display section 50a that does not overlap with the above-board movable body 55k and the below-board movable body 56k. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 21(B), the above-board movable body 55k and the below-board movable body 56k return to the normal standby state (initial position) and develop into SP reach. Note that the movable body performance is not limited to suggesting the development of SP reach, and can be changed or added as appropriate. Further, the operation contents of the movable device in the movable body performance can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-4-2. Operation performance The pachinko game machine PY1 can perform an operation performance using the normal button 40 and special button 41 as a preview performance. The operation performance is a performance in which the player operates the normal button 40 or the special button 41, and functions as a performance to make the player expect a big win.

In the operation performance, for example, in SP reach, a period (button operation validity period) occurs during which the press operation of the special button 41 is valid, and with the occurrence of this button operation validity period, as shown in FIG. 22 (A) , a performance that prompts the user to operate the special button 41 (button operation promotion performance) is performed. In the button operation promotion effect, a button operation promotion image G3 is displayed on the display section 50a. The button operation promotion image G3 includes an image imitating the special button 41 (special button image G31), an image (press operation image G32) representing the operation mode of the special button 41 (that is, a press operation), and a button operation valid period. An image representing the remaining time (operation valid period remaining time image G33) is included. Note that the operation valid period remaining time image G33 is composed of a generally curved progress bar, and changes as time passes so that the player can easily understand the remaining time of the operation valid period. Thereafter, in response to the special button 41 being pressed during the button operation valid period, or after the button operation valid period has elapsed without any special button 41 being operated during the button operation valid period, as shown in FIG. 22(B). As shown in , the on-board movable device 55 is activated, and as seen from the player, the on-board movable body 55k moves so as to overlap the display section 50a, suggesting the expectation of a jackpot. Note that the operation performance is not limited to the operation of the on-board movable device 55, and can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-4-3. Pre-read performance The pachinko gaming machine PY1 is capable of performing a pre-read performance for the special figure 1 hold or the special figure 2 hold for which the special figure lottery has not been performed, as a preview effect. The pre-reading performance functions as a performance for suggesting in advance the lottery result of the special symbol lottery for the special symbol 1 reservation or the special symbol 2 reservation.

In the look-ahead performance, for example, if the result of the look-ahead determination for the special drawing 1 hold is a "jackpot", the hold icon HA, which is normally displayed as ``O'', in the hold icon display area 50d, as shown in FIG. 20(C). may be displayed as "☆". Further, when the result of the pre-reading determination is "lost", the hold icon HA may be displayed as "☆" as a so-called fake effect. In addition, the pre-reading performance can be performed for both or one of the special figure 1 reservation and the special figure 2 reservation. Further, the change is not limited to the display mode of the hold icon HA, and changes or additions can be made as appropriate. For example, it is also possible to change the stopping manner of the performance symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 in the special symbol variation performance.

4-5. Customer Waiting Performance Pachinko gaming machine PY1 is capable of performing a customer waiting performance when the customer waiting performance mode is set. The customer waiting effect may be performed before the special symbol variation starts after the power is turned on, or when the next special symbol variation does not start for a predetermined period of time after the special symbol variation. The customer waiting performance is performed as shown in FIG. 23, for example, when the next special symbol variation after the special symbol variation is not performed for a predetermined period of time. In this embodiment, the waiting image displayed by the customer waiting effect basically changes over four stages.

FIG. 23(A) shows a state (symbol static image) in which the stop display of the production symbol EZ in the special symbol variation production is performed on the daytime normal background image G102 on the display unit 50a. In addition, the small pattern KZ is also stopped and displayed in the upper left area.

FIG. 23(B) shows a state in which the selection standby image G200 is displayed. The selection standby image G200 changes to an image for customizing the jackpot expectation level of the LOGO performance (LOGO cut-in notice, movable object performance), etc. by pressing the upper or lower button of the select button 42. This is a standby image showing. The selection standby image G200 is also a standby image indicating that the set volume can be changed by pressing the left or right button of the select button 42. In addition, the effect pattern EZ and the small pattern KZ that are stopped and displayed are also shown.

FIG. 23(C) shows a state where the hole code corresponding image G201 is displayed. The hole code corresponding image G201 is a standby image that shows the main character and the name of the gaming hall that corresponds to the hole code information. Hall code information is information that can be displayed by inputting a predetermined number of digits corresponding to each game hall.

FIG. 23(D) shows a state in which a customer waiting demonstration image G202 is displayed. The customer waiting demo image G202 of this embodiment is a waiting image showing a battle between the main character and the enemy character in the pachinko game machine PY1. This customer waiting demo image G202 is designed to appropriately promote the present pachinko gaming machine PY1 to players who are wondering which gaming machine to play at the gaming parlor.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 23, when the special symbol variation effect ends and the stop display of the effect pattern EZ continues for a predetermined period of time (approximately 30 seconds) (see FIG. 23(A)), the selection standby image G200 is displayed (see FIG. 23(B)). Furthermore, when the selection standby image G200 is displayed for a predetermined period of time (approximately 30 seconds), the hole code corresponding image G201 is then displayed (see FIG. 23(C)). Further, when the hall code corresponding image G201 is displayed for a predetermined period of time (approximately 30 seconds), the customer waiting demonstration image G202 is displayed next (see FIG. 23(E)). When the customer waiting demonstration image G202 is displayed for a predetermined period of time (approximately 30 seconds), the selection waiting image G200 is then displayed (see FIG. 23(B)).

That is, as shown in FIG. 23, the customer waiting performance of this embodiment includes a selection waiting demonstration performance that can display the selection waiting image G200 and a hall that can display the hole code corresponding image G201 during a period when no special symbol change is performed. It is possible to repeatedly execute the code-compatible demonstration performance and the specific demonstration performance that can display the customer waiting demonstration image G202 in this order. In addition, if the special symbol variation is started during the customer waiting presentation, the customer waiting presentation can be ended and the special symbol variation presentation can be executed.

5. Control of the game by the game control microcomputer 101 Next, the game control by the game control microcomputer 101 will be explained based on FIGS. 24 to 27. Note that counters, timers, buffers, etc. that appear in the game control by the game control microcomputer 101, which will be explained below, are provided in the game RAM 104.

[1. Main control main processing]
When the pachinko game machine PY1 is powered on, the game control microcomputer 101 provided in the main control board 100 reads out and executes the main control main processing program shown in FIG. 23 from the game ROM 103. As shown in the figure, in the main control main processing, first, power-on processing (S001) is performed. In the power-on process, permission settings for access to the gaming RAM 104, settings for the gaming CPU 102, settings for SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time), etc. are performed.

Following the power-on processing, interrupts are prohibited (S002), and normal symbol/special symbol main random number update processing (S003) is executed. In this normal symbol/special symbol main random number update process (S003), the counter values of the various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8(A) and 8(B) are updated by adding 1. When the counter value of each random number reaches the upper limit value, it returns to "0" and is added again. Note that the initial value of each random number counter may be a value other than "0" or may be changed randomly. Further, at least a portion of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like.

When the normal symbol/special symbol main random number update process (S003) is completed, an interrupt is permitted (S004). While interrupts are enabled, main side timer interrupt processing (S005) can be executed. The main side timer interrupt process (S005) is executed based on an interrupt pulse that is repeatedly input to the gaming CPU 102 at a cycle of, for example, 4 msec. That is, the main side timer interrupt process (S005) is executed at a cycle of 4 msec. Then, after the main side timer interrupt process (S005) ends and until the next main side timer interrupt process (S005) starts, various changes are made by the normal symbol/special symbol main random number update process (S003). The process of updating the random number counter value is repeatedly executed. Note that if an interrupt pulse is input to the gaming CPU 102 while the interrupt is disabled, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is not started immediately, but is started after the interrupt is enabled (S004).

[2. Main side timer interrupt processing]
Next, the main side timer interrupt processing (S005) will be explained. As shown in FIG. 24, in the main side timer interrupt processing (S005), output processing (S101) is first executed. In the output process (S101), commands etc. set in the output buffer provided in the gaming RAM 104 of the main control board 100 in each process described below are output to the sub control board 120, payout control board 170, etc.

In the input process (S102) that is performed after the output process (S101), the game control microcomputer 101 takes in, for example, a detection signal from a lower tray full switch that detects when the lower tray 35 is full, and inputs the detection signal to the game as the lower tray full data. The data is stored in the output buffer of the RAM 104.

The normal symbol/special symbol main random number update process (S103) performed next is the same as the normal symbol/special symbol main random number update process (S003) performed in the main control main process of FIG. That is, the updating process of the counter values of various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8(A) and 8(B) is performed during the execution period of the main side timer interrupt process (S005) and during the other period (main side timer interrupt process (S005)). After the completion of S005), the interrupt processing is performed both during the period until the next main-side timer interrupt processing (S005) is started.

Next to the normal symbol/special symbol main random number update process (S103), the game control microcomputer 101 performs a sensor detection process (S104), then performs a normal operation process (S105), and further performs a special operation process (S106). conduct. The sensor detection process, normal operation process, and special operation process will be described later.

Following the special operation process (S106), a sorting device control process for controlling the sorting device 16D is performed (S107).

Next, the game control microcomputer 101 executes other processing (S108) and ends the main side timer interrupt processing (S005). Other processing (S108) includes power-off monitoring processing when the power is cut off, updating of a timer provided in the gaming RAM 104, and the like. Further, as other processing (S108), a payout control process for paying out prize balls to the player is performed. In the payout control process, a prize ball request signal is transmitted to the payout control board 170 in response to winning of game balls to each winning hole. That is, the payout control board 170 pays out prize balls based on the prize ball request signal.

Then, the gaming control microcomputer 101 repeatedly executes steps S002 to S004 of the main control main processing until the next interrupt pulse is input to the gaming CPU 102 (see FIG. 23). (after about 4 msec), the main side timer interrupt processing (S005) is executed again. In the output process (S101) of the main side timer interrupt process (S005) executed again, the gaming control microcomputer 101 outputs the command set in the output buffer of the gaming RAM 104 in the previous main side timer interrupt process (S005). etc. is output.

[2-1. Sensor detection processing]
In the sensor detection processing (S104), general winning hole sensor processing, gate sensor processing, second starting hole sensor processing, first starting hole sensor processing, first big winning hole sensor processing, second big winning hole sensor processing, specific area Perform sensor processing sequentially. Then, the commands generated in each process are set in the output buffer of the gaming RAM 104.

In the general winning hole sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the general winning hole sensor. In addition, a command for the general winning hole sensor is generated according to the result of the processing.

In the gate sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the gate sensor. When it is determined that a game ball has been detected, the normal symbol random number indicated by the counter value of the normal symbol random number counter is acquired, and the acquired normal symbol random number is stored in the regular symbol retention storage section 106 provided in the gaming RAM 104. . In addition, when a predetermined number (for example, 4) of normal symbol random numbers are stored in the common symbol reservation storage unit 106, the newly acquired normal symbol random number is not stored. Furthermore, a gate sensor command is generated according to the result of the processing.

In the second starting port sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the second starting port sensor. When it is determined that a game ball has been detected, a special pattern 2-related random number consisting of a special pattern random number counter, a jackpot pattern type random number counter, a reach random number counter, and a special pattern variation pattern random number counter is acquired, and the obtained special pattern 2-related random number is is stored in the special figure 2 reservation storage section 105b provided in the gaming RAM 104. The special figure 2 reservation storage unit 105b has a plurality of storage areas from the first area to the nth area (n is an integer of 2 or more), and the acquired special figure 2 related random numbers are stored in order from the first area. Ru. In addition, when the special figure 2 related random number is stored up to the n-th area, the newly acquired special figure 2 related random number is not stored. Further, a second pre-reading determination is performed using the acquired special figure 2 related random number and the second pre-reading determination table. In addition, according to the result of the process, a special figure 2 pending number command representing the number of special figure 2 related random numbers (special figure 2 pending number) stored in the special figure 2 pending storage unit 105b and a second look-ahead judgment are executed. A second starting port sensor command including a second starting winning command representing the result is generated.

In the first starting port sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the first starting port sensor. When it is determined that a game ball has been detected, a special pattern 1-related random number consisting of a special pattern random number counter, a jackpot pattern type random number counter, a reach random number counter, and a special pattern variation pattern random number counter is acquired, and the obtained special pattern 1-related random number is is stored in the special figure 1 reservation storage section 105a provided in the gaming RAM 104. The special figure 1 reservation storage unit 105a has a plurality of storage areas from the first area to the nth area (n is an integer of 2 or more), and the acquired special figure 1 related random numbers are stored in order from the first area. Ru. In addition, when the special figure 1 related random number is stored up to the n-th area, the newly acquired special figure 1 related random number is not stored. Moreover, the first pre-reading determination is performed using the acquired special figure 1 related random number and the first pre-reading determination table. In addition, according to the result of the process, a special figure 1 pending number command representing the number of special figure 1 related random numbers (special figure 1 pending number) stored in the special figure 1 pending storage unit 105a and a first look-ahead judgment are executed. A command for the first starting port sensor including a first starting winning command representing the result is generated.

In the first big winning hole sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the first big winning hole sensor. In addition, a command for the first big winning hole sensor is generated according to the result of the processing.

In the second big winning hole sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the second big winning hole sensor. In addition, a command for the second big winning hole sensor is generated according to the result of the processing.

In the specific area sensor process, it is determined whether a game ball is detected by the specific area sensor. Further, a specific area sensor command is generated according to the result of the processing.

[2-2. Normal operation processing]
In the normal operation process (S105), a normal symbol standby process, a normal symbol variation process, a normal symbol confirmation process, and an auxiliary game control process are sequentially performed. Then, the commands generated in each process are set in the output buffer of the gaming RAM 104.

The normal symbol standby process is a process that is performed during standby when the variable display of the normal symbol and the auxiliary game are not being performed. In the normal symbol standby process, a hit determination is performed based on the normal symbol random number stored in the regular symbol reservation storage section 106. In addition, a normal pattern fluctuation pattern is determined based on the current gaming state to determine a normal pattern fluctuation pattern. Then, a normal pattern variation start command including information regarding the result of the hit determination and the normal pattern variation pattern is generated. Then, based on the general pattern fluctuation time associated with the determined general pattern fluctuation pattern, the general pattern display 82 starts variable display of the general pattern.

The normal symbol variation process is a process that is performed during the variable display of the normal symbol. In the ordinary symbol variation process, the ordinary symbol is stopped and displayed based on the hit determination result in response to the elapse of the ordinary symbol fluctuation time after the start of the variable display of the ordinary symbol that is being executed. Then, a general pattern variation stop command indicating the end of the variable display of the general pattern is generated.

The ordinary symbol confirmation process is a process that is performed when the ordinary symbol is stopped and displayed. In the normal symbol confirmation process, when a predetermined stopping time (for example, 0.8 seconds) has elapsed since the stop display of the common symbol being executed starts, the common symbol that is being stopped and displayed is a winning symbol. Determine whether it exists or not. If the winning symbols are stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is started based on the current game state and the auxiliary game control table, and an auxiliary game start command indicating the start of the auxiliary game is generated.

The auxiliary game control process is a process that is performed when an auxiliary game is being played. In the auxiliary game control process, the auxiliary game is controlled based on the current game state and the auxiliary game control table. In addition, an auxiliary game control command is generated according to the result of the processing.

[2-3. Special operation processing]
In the special operation process (S106), as shown in FIG. 26, the process regarding the special figure display 81 and the grand prize device (the first grand prize device 14D and the second grand prize device 15D) is divided into four stages, and these "Special operation status 1, 2, 3, 4" is assigned to each stage. Then, when the "special operation status" is "1" (YES at S1301), the game control microcomputer 101 performs special symbol standby processing (S1302), and when the "special operation status" is "2". (NO in S1301, YES in S1303), special symbol fluctuation processing (S1304) is performed, and if the "special operation status" is "3" (NO in both S1301 and S1303, YES in S1305) , special symbol confirmation processing (S1306) is performed, and when the "special operation status" is "4" (all of S1301, S1303, and S1305 are NO), special electric accessory processing (S1307) is performed. Note that the special operation status is "1" in the initial setting.

In the special symbol standby process (S1302), a random value such as a jackpot random number acquired in the starting port sensor detection process (see FIG. 27) is determined using a predetermined judgment table (see FIGS. 10, 11, and 12). . Then, variable display of special symbols for informing the result of the jackpot lottery is started, and the special operation status is set to "2". The special symbol standby process (S1302) will be detailed later.

In the special symbol fluctuation processing (S1304), it is determined whether or not the special symbol fluctuation time has elapsed, and when it has elapsed, the special symbol is stopped and displayed, a fluctuation stop command is set in the output buffer, and the special operation status is displayed. Set to "3".

In the special symbol confirmation process (S1306), it is determined whether the stopped special symbol is a jackpot symbol or not, and if it is a jackpot symbol, the special operation status is set to "4" in order to execute the special electric accessory processing. . At this time, the jackpot opening command is set in the output buffer. If it is not a jackpot symbol, the special operation status is set to "1" in order to execute the special symbol standby process again. In addition, in the special symbol confirmation process (S1306), in order to manage the control period of the high probability state, if the probability change flag is ON, the value of the probability change counter is decremented by 1, and when it becomes "0", the probability change flag is turned OFF. do. Further, in order to manage the control period in the time saving state (that is, the high base state), if the time saving flag is ON, the value of the time saving counter is decremented by 1, and when it becomes "0", the time saving flag is turned OFF. Further, when setting the special operation status to "4", if the probability change flag or the time saving flag is ON, they are returned to OFF. In other words, during the jackpot game, it is controlled to a low probability low base state.

In the special electric accessory processing (S1307), the first grand prize opening 14 and the second grand prize opening 15 are opened according to a predetermined opening pattern (opening time and number of openings, see FIG. 19) according to the type of jackpot won. Play a jackpot game (special game). The special electric accessory processing (S1307) will be detailed later.

[2-3-1. Special symbol standby process]
In the special symbol standby process (S1302), as shown in FIG. 27, first, it is determined whether the number of reserved balls in the second starting port 12 (namely, the number of special symbol 2 reserved balls) is "0" (S1401 ). If the number of reserved balls for special figure 2 is "0" (YES in S1401), that is, if there is no memory of the random number counter value group acquired due to winning in the second starting port 12, the first starting It is determined whether or not the number of reserved balls in the mouth 11 (namely, the number of reserved balls on special figure 1) is "0" (S1407). Then, if the number of reserved balls for special drawing 1 is also "0" (YES in S1407), that is, if there is no memory of the random number counter value group acquired due to winning in the first starting slot 11, the customer It is determined whether the waiting standby flag is ON or not (S1415). If it is ON, this process ends; if it is not ON, a customer waiting command is set in the output buffer (S1416), and the customer waiting flag is turned ON. (S1417).

In step S1401, if the number of reserved balls for special drawing 2 is not "0" (NO in S1401), in other words, the memory of the random number counter value group acquired due to winning in the second starting hole 12 (reservation information of special drawing 2) ), when there is one or more, special figure 2 jackpot determination processing (S1402) and special figure 2 fluctuation pattern selection processing (S1403) are performed.

In the special figure 2 jackpot determination process (S1402), a jackpot random number value is read out, and a jackpot determination is made based on a jackpot determination table (see FIG. 10(A)) according to the current gaming state. If the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot, the winning type random value is read out and the winning type is determined based on the winning type determination table (see FIG. 10(B)). Then, special symbol stop symbol data corresponding to the winning type is set in a special symbol buffer provided in the gaming RAM 104. If the result of the success/failure determination is "lose", special pattern stop symbol data corresponding to the losing pattern is set in the special pattern buffer.

In the special figure 2 variation pattern selection process (S1403), the variation pattern random value is read out, and a variation pattern is selected based on the special figure variation pattern determination table (see FIG. 12). In this process, if the result of the above-mentioned success/failure judgment is "lose", the reach random value is read out and based on the reach judgment table (see FIG. 10(C)), the fluctuation pattern of reach and loss is determined. Decide whether to do so or use a fluctuating pattern of no reach and no loss.

Note that, as shown in FIG. 12, once the fluctuation pattern is determined, the fluctuation time is also determined. In addition, in the case of a reach, it is also determined whether the reach will be a normal reach or a super reach (SP reach) (see the remarks column in FIG. 12). SP reach is a reach that has a longer fluctuation time after reach than normal reach, and the distribution rate of the table is set so that the expectation level of winning (expectation level for winning a jackpot) is higher than that of normal reach. In this embodiment, SP reach is performed progressively through normal reach.

Returning to FIG. 27, following the special figure 2 variation pattern selection process (S1403), the game control microcomputer 101 decrements the number of reserved balls for special figure 2 by 1 (S1404). Then, the storage location (storage area) of various counter values in the special figure 2 reservation storage section 105b is shifted one place from the current position to the side where it is read out, and the storage area corresponding to the fourth reservation in the special figure 2 reservation storage section 105b is shifted. The storage area (the storage area farthest from the read side) is cleared (S1405). In this way, the second special figure reservations are consumed in the order in which they were reserved.

Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 101 executes special figure 2 fluctuation start processing (S1406). In the special figure 2 variation start process (S1406), the special operation status is set to "2", a variation start command is set, and the variation display of the second special symbol is started. In addition, the variation start command (also referred to as the special pattern 2 variation start command) set in the special pattern 2 variation start process (S1406) includes the special pattern stop symbol data set in the special pattern 2 jackpot determination process (S1402). Information and information on the variation pattern set in the special figure 2 variation pattern selection process (S1403) (information including information on variation time) are included. After that, the gaming control microcomputer 101 determines whether or not the customer waiting flag is ON (S1413), and if it is ON, it turns OFF the customer waiting flag (S1414) and finishes this process, and if it is not ON, the step This process ends without executing S1414.

In addition, if the number of reserved balls for special drawing 2 is "0" but the number of reserved balls for special drawing 1 is not "0" (YES in S1401 and NO in S1407), that is, there is no reservation information for special drawing 2, but the number of reserved balls for special drawing 1 is not "0". If there is one or more memories of the random number counter value group acquired due to winning in the 1 starting opening 11 (pending information of the special figure 1), the special figure 1 jackpot determination process (S1408) and the special figure 1 fluctuation Pattern selection processing (S1409) is performed. The special figure 1 jackpot determination process (S1408) is the same process as the special figure 2 jackpot determination process (S1402), so the explanation will be omitted. Moreover, since the special figure 1 variation pattern selection process (S1409) is the same process as the special figure 2 variation pattern selection process (S1403), the explanation will be omitted.

Next, the game control microcomputer 101 decrements the number of special symbols 1 reserved balls by 1 (S1410). Then, the storage location (storage area) of various counter values in the special figure 1 reservation storage section 105a is shifted one place from the current position to the side where it is read out, and it corresponds to the fourth reservation in the special figure 1 reservation storage section 105a. (S1411). In this way, the first special figure reservations are consumed in the order in which they were reserved.

Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 101 executes special figure 1 fluctuation start processing (S1412). In the special pattern 1 variation start process (S1412), the special operation status is set to "2" and a variation start command is set to start the variation display of the first special symbol. In addition, the variation start command (also referred to as the special figure 1 variation start command) set in the special figure 1 variation start process (S1412) includes the special figure stop symbol data set in the special figure 1 jackpot determination process (S1408). Information and information on the variation pattern set in the special figure 1 variation pattern selection process (S1409) (information including information on variation time) are included. After that, the gaming control microcomputer 101 determines whether or not the customer waiting flag is ON (S1413), and if it is ON, it turns OFF the customer waiting flag (S1414) and finishes this process, and if it is not ON, the step This process ends without executing S1414.

As described above, in this embodiment, the variable display of special symbols based on the first special symbol reservation is performed only when the second special symbol reservation is "0" (YES in S1401). That is, the extinguishment of the second special figure reservation is executed in priority to the extinguishment of the first special figure reservation. In this embodiment, it is easier for the player to win a jackpot with a large profit in the lottery based on the second special symbol reservation than in the lottery based on the first special symbol reservation.

[2-3-2. Special symbol fluctuation processing]
The special symbol variation process (S1304) is a process performed during variable display of the special symbol. In the special symbol variation process, as the special symbol variation time elapses, the special symbol display device 81 ends the variable display of the special symbol and stops displaying the special symbol according to the result of the jackpot determination. If the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot, a jackpot symbol indicating a jackpot is stopped and displayed, and if the result of the jackpot determination is a loss, a loss symbol indicating a loss is stopped and displayed. Then, a special figure variation stop command indicating the end of the variable display of the special figure is generated.

[2-3-3. Special design confirmation process]
The special symbol confirmation process (S1306) is a process performed when the special symbol is stopped and displayed. In the special symbol confirmation process, if the special symbol currently being stopped and displayed is a jackpot symbol, a transition is made to a jackpot game state. Then, an opening command indicating the start of a jackpot game is generated. The opening command includes information regarding the result of jackpot type determination. Further, when the special symbol currently being stopped and displayed is a losing symbol and the high probability state is to be ended, the normal probability state is set. Then, a high probability termination command indicating transition to the normal probability state is generated. Further, when the special symbol currently being stopped and displayed is a losing symbol and the time saving state is to be ended, a non-time saving state is set. Then, a time-saving end command indicating transition to a non-time-saving state is generated.

[2-3-4. Jackpot game control processing]
In the special electric accessory processing (S1307), jackpot game control processing and game state setting processing are performed. The jackpot game control process is a process performed in the jackpot game state. In the jackpot game control process, a jackpot game is performed using the jackpot game control table. After transition to the jackpot game state, each round game is started according to the passage of opening time or closing time. Then, a round game command indicating the start of a round game is generated. Furthermore, in response to ending the final round game, an ending is started. Then, an ending command indicating the end of the jackpot game is generated. The ending command includes information regarding the result of jackpot type determination.

[2-3-5. Game state setting processing]
The game state setting process is a process that is performed when the jackpot game state ends. In the gaming state setting process, when changing from the normal probability state to the high probability state, the high probability state is set at the end of the jackpot gaming state. When restricting the duration of the high probability state, the duration of the high probability state (for example, the number of variable display times of the special symbol that allows the high probability state to continue without winning the jackpot) is also set. Then, a high probability setting command indicating setting of a high probability state is generated. Further, when changing from a non-time saving state to a time saving state, the time saving state is set at the end of the jackpot game state. When limiting the duration of the time-saving state, the duration of the time-saving state (for example, the number of variable display times of the special symbol that allows the time-saving state to continue without winning a jackpot) is also set. Then, a time saving setting command indicating setting of the time saving state is generated.

Note that the commands generated by the game control microcomputer 101 in each process can be added or changed as appropriate.

6. Control of performance by microcomputer 121 for performance control Next, control of performance by microcomputer 121 for performance control will be explained based on FIGS. 28 and 29. Note that counters, timers, flags, buffers, etc. that appear in the following explanation of the control of the performance by the performance control microcomputer 121 are provided in the performance RAM 124.

[1. Sub control main processing]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on, the performance control microcomputer 121 provided in the sub-control board 120 reads out the sub-control main processing program shown in FIG. 28 from the performance ROM 123 and executes it. As shown in the figure, in the sub-control main processing, first, power-on processing is performed in response to power-on (S4001). In the power-on process, for example, settings for the performance CPU 122, settings for SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time), etc. are performed.

Next, interrupts are prohibited (S4002), and random number seed update processing is executed (S4003). In the random number seed update process (S4003), the values of various performance determination random number counters for making determinations regarding various performances are updated. As an example, the method of updating the random number counter for performance determination for various performances can be the same as the normal symbol/special symbol main random number update processing performed by the main control board 100 described above. When updating, the random number values may be added by 2 instead of being added by 1. This also applies to the normal symbol/special symbol main random number update processing performed by the main control board 100 described above.

When the random number seed update process is completed, a command transmission process is executed (S4004). In the command transmission process, various commands stored in the output buffer in the effect RAM 124 of the sub-control board 120 are transmitted to the image control board 140. The image control board 140 that has received the command displays an image on the display unit 50a (performs various effects using the image) according to the received command. In addition to the various effects performed by the image control board 140, the sub-control board 120 also outputs audio from the speaker 52 via the audio control circuit 161 (executes various audio effects), and controls lamps. Via the circuit 151, the frame lamp 53 and the panel lamp 54 are made to emit light (to perform various light emitting effects by emitting light), and the movable devices 55, 56, and 58 are activated (to perform various movable body effects by operation). execute).

The performance control microcomputer 121 then permits an interrupt (S4005). Thereafter, steps S4002 to S4005 are looped. While interrupts are enabled, reception interrupt processing (S4010) and sub-side timer interrupt processing (S4011) can be executed.

The reception interrupt process (S4010) is executed every time various commands sent from the main control board 100 are input to the production control microcomputer 121. In the reception interrupt processing (S4010), the production control microcomputer 121 stores various commands transmitted and received by the output processing (S101) of the main control board 100 in the reception buffer of the production RAM 124. This reception interrupt processing is executed with priority over other interrupt processing (S4011).

[2. Sub-side timer interrupt processing]
The sub-side timer interrupt process (S4011) is executed every time an interrupt pulse of a predetermined period (for example, 1 msec period) is input to the sub control board 120. As shown in FIG. 29, the sub-side timer interrupt processing (S4011) includes input processing (S4101), light emission data output processing (S4102), mobile device control processing (S4103), watchdog timer processing (S4104), and received command analysis. The process (S4105), the effect timer update process (S4106), the audio control process (S4107), and the effect data creation process (S4108) are sequentially performed.

In the input processing, operations on operation units that can be operated by the player, such as the normal button detection switch 40a, the special button detection switch 41a, and the select button detection switch 42a, are detected. In addition, in the input processing, switch data (edge data and level data) is created based on detection signals from the normal button detection switch 40a, special button detection switch 41a, and select button detection switch 42a. In the light emission data output process, the light emission data is output in order to cause lamps such as the frame lamp 53 and the board lamp 54 to emit light at a timing that matches the image effect, etc., based on the effect data created in the effect data creation process described later. is output to the lamp control circuit 151. That is, the performance control microcomputer 121 causes the frame lamp 53, board lamp 54, etc. to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode according to the light emission data. In the movable device control process, the performance data created in the performance data creation process and the customization information of the movable body performance stored in the performance RAM 124 (a table of expectations for the selected movable body performance (see FIG. 32) ), the selection rate table of the movable body performance (see Figure 33), the execution timing of the movable body performance (at the start of fluctuation, at the time of tenpai, etc.), the information on the suggested contents of the movable body performance), and the jackpot included in the fluctuation start command. Based on the information of the special figure stop symbol data based on the determination, etc., drive data is output in order to perform a movable body effect that operates movable devices such as movable devices 55, 56, and 58 at a predetermined timing. That is, the performance control microcomputer 121 performs a movable body performance in which the movable devices 55, 56, 58, etc. are operated in a predetermined operation mode according to the drive data. In the watchdog timer process, the watchdog timer is reset.

In the received command analysis process, the command stored in the reception buffer of the performance RAM 124 by the reception interrupt process (S4010) is analyzed, and processing according to the command (for example, selection of performance, setting of performance mode, setting of commands, etc.) I do. In the effect timer update process, a timer for measuring time related to each effect is updated. In the audio control process, audio data (data that controls audio output from the speaker 52) is created and output to the audio control circuit 161 based on the processing result of the received command analysis process. In the presentation data creation process, presentation data is created based on the processing result of the received command analysis process.

7. Description of Features of the Present Embodiment A further detailed explanation will be added below regarding the feature points of the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the present embodiment.

8. Control of performance by the performance control microcomputer 121 of this embodiment Next, control of performance by the performance control microcomputer 121 of this embodiment will be described based on FIGS. 38 to 41.

[1. Received command analysis processing]
First, the received command analysis process of this embodiment will be explained in detail. As shown in FIG. 38, in the received command analysis process (S4105), it is first determined whether a customer waiting command has been received from the main control board 100 (S5001), and if it has been received (YES in S5001), the customer A wait effect process (S5002) is performed, a customization setting process (S5003) to be described later is performed, and the process advances to step S5004.

In the customer waiting performance process (S5002), the performance control microcomputer 121 sets a waiting time (for example, 30 seconds) in the customer waiting timer and sets the value of the customer waiting flag to "1". Here, the customer waiting timer is a counter that measures the display timing of various images (selected waiting image G200, hall code corresponding image G201, customer waiting demonstration image G202, see FIG. 23) that are sequentially displayed as a customer waiting effect. Note that the period from when the sub control board 120 receives the customer waiting command until it receives the next fluctuation start command (that is, the period during which the customer waiting standby flag is ON in the main control board 100) is referred to as being in the customer waiting state.

Further, the customer waiting flag is a flag indicating the stage of the customer waiting state. Specifically, as shown in the table in FIG. 38, if the customer waiting flag is "0", it indicates that the customer is not in a waiting state (that is, in a non-customer waiting state). Further, if the customer waiting flag is "1", it indicates that the stage where a symbol stop image in which the effect pattern EZ has completely stopped is being displayed (that is, the stage where the customer waiting state has started). Further, if the customer waiting flag is "2", it indicates that the selected waiting image G200 is being displayed. Further, if the customer waiting flag is "3", it indicates that the hole code corresponding image G201 is being displayed. Further, if the customer waiting flag is "4", it indicates that the customer waiting demonstration image G202 is being displayed. If the customer waiting flag is "5", LOGO effect customization image G203, LOGO cut-in customization image G204, expectation selection image 1G205, selection rate selection image 1G206, timing selection image 1G207, suggestion content selection image 1G208, movable object This indicates that the effect customization image G209, the expectation level selection image 2G210, the selection rate selection image 2G211, the timing selection image 2G212, and the suggestion content selection image 2G213 are being displayed.

Subsequently, the performance control microcomputer 121 determines whether or not a fluctuation start command (special figure 1 fluctuation start command or special figure 2 fluctuation start command) has been received from the main control board 100 (S5004), and determines whether or not it has been received. For example, a variable effect start process to be described later is performed (S5005).

Next, the production control microcomputer 121 determines whether or not a special symbol variation stop command has been received from the main control board 100 (S5006), and if it has been received (YES in S5006), performs a variation production end process (S5006). S5007). In the fluctuating performance end process (S5007), the fluctuation stop command is analyzed, and based on the analysis result, a fluctuating performance end command for ending the fluctuating performance is set in the output buffer of the performance RAM 124.

Subsequently, the production control microcomputer 121 determines whether or not an opening command has been received from the main control board 100 (S5008), and if it has received it (YES in S5008), performs opening production selection processing (S5009). In the opening performance selection process (S5009), the opening command is analyzed, and based on the analysis result, the pattern (content) of the opening performance to be executed during the opening of the jackpot game is selected. Then, an opening performance start command for starting an opening performance using the selected opening performance pattern is set in the output buffer of the performance RAM 124.

Next, the production control microcomputer 121 determines whether or not a round designation command has been received from the main control board 100 (S5010), and if it has been received (YES in S5010), performs round production selection processing (S5011). . In the round performance selection process (S5011), the round designation command is analyzed, and based on the analysis result, the pattern (content) of the round performance to be executed during the round game of the jackpot game is selected. Then, a round performance start command for starting a round performance using the selected round performance pattern is set in the output buffer of the performance RAM 124.

Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 121 determines whether or not an ending command has been received from the main control board 100 (S5012), and if it has been received (YES in S5012), performs an ending effect selection process (S5013). In the ending performance selection process (S5013), the ending command is analyzed, and based on the analysis result, a pattern (content) of the ending performance to be executed during the ending of the jackpot game is selected. Then, an ending effect start command for starting an ending effect using the selected ending effect pattern is set in the output buffer of the effect RAM 124.

Subsequently, the production control microcomputer 121 performs other processing (S5014) based on received commands other than the above-mentioned commands (for example, processing for performing production accompanying the fluctuating display of normal symbols, etc.). Then, the received command analysis process (S4105) ends.

[2. Customization setting process]
The customization setting process (S5003) of this embodiment will be explained in detail. As shown in FIG. 39, in the customization setting process (S5003), it is first determined whether the value of the customer waiting flag is "5" (S5101). If the value of the customer waiting flag is not "5" (NO in S5101), this process is ended and the process proceeds to step S5004 in FIG. 38. If it is determined that the value of the customer waiting flag is "5" (YES in S5101), it is determined whether the LOGO effect customized image G203 is being displayed on the display unit 50a (S5102). If it is determined that the LOGO effect customized image G203 is being displayed on the display unit 50a (YES in S5102), the process advances to step S5103.
