It is configured so that it blinks sequentially, and finally one display column is turned on.

If the lottery result described later is a big hit (appearing to the player, a big hit combination is displayed on the first variable display means 20, or the first variable display means 20 and the second variable display The combination of the indications of the means 25 is a big hit combination.), And a special value advantageous to the player is generated. Specifically, the value generating means 30
Comprises a variable winning opening provided with an openable / closable attacker 31 and a solenoid 32 as a driving means thereof.

More specifically, based on a value generation signal from a game management means 50, which will be described later, the value generating means 30 opens the attacker 31 for a predetermined period of time (for example, 29 seconds), and then operates for a short time (for example, 2 to 2 seconds). The operation of closing for only 3 seconds) is set to be continued up to a predetermined number of rounds (for example, 16 times). Such an operation is of special value.

In the value generating means 30, a winning ball counter 33 such as various sensors is provided. This winning ball counter 3
3 is also connected to the game management means 50, and the display of the number of balls (not shown) winning the value generation means 30 in each round is displayed on a part of the first variable display means 20.
During the round in which the special value is generated, even before the predetermined time elapses, the winning ball counter 33
The value generating means 30 is set to be closed when a predetermined number (for example, 10) of winning balls are counted.

The holding display means 40 is provided for the specific winning opening 12.
When the ball is newly won in the special winning opening 12 between the winning of the game and the end of the generation of the special value, the number of times of the right of the symbol matching display which is not executed is displayed. The reservation display means 40 is set to display the number of times of right reservation stored in the game management means 50 based on a reservation display signal from the game management means 50 described later.

More specifically, the hold display means 40 has 4
.., And up to four unexecuted symbol matching display rights can be reserved. That is, control is performed so that the number of display lamps 41 corresponding to the number of rights reservation times is turned on. When the held symbol matching display is executed, the number of executions is subtracted from the number of right reservations, updated and stored in the game management means 50, and the number is newly displayed on the hold display means 40. Also,
In the state where the right is held up to the maximum value of four, even if the ball enters the specific winning port 12 again, the right to be generated by this winning is set to be discarded.

As shown in FIG. 1, the game management means 50 is a computer for managing the operation of the entire game machine and the flow of the ball, and operates and operates various devices in the game hall via a local information network (LAN). The terminal is also connected to a hall management terminal (not shown) for centrally controlling the system. The game management means 50 is formed as a unit, and is attached to the inside of the machine such as the back side of the game board 11.

As shown in FIG. 1, the game management means 50
PU51, random lottery means 51A, first symbol control means 51B, second symbol control means 51C, game control means 51
D, and various functions including a right holding means 51E. The CPU 51 includes a ROM 5 as a storage unit.
2 and RAM 53, the special winning opening 12, the first
The variable display means 20, the second variable display means 25, the value generation means 30, and the hold display means 40 are connected via signal lines.

The ROM 52 stores game control program data for controlling the value generating means 30 and the like, display control program data for a symbol for developing a symbol matching display on the variable display means 20 and 25, and various types of characters. Fixed data such as a lighting pattern of a decorative lamp for producing a winning, a sound generation pattern from a speaker, and the like are stored. The RAM 53 temporarily stores various data relating to the game including signals from the specific winning opening 12 and the value generating means 30, and various symbol data relating to a symbol matching display and the like generated by the CPU 51.

The random lottery means 51A selects one of the random number tables stored in the ROM 52 based on the winning signal from the winning detection switch 12a, and executes a random lottery.
A lottery result signal corresponding to the lottery result is output. Here, the lottery result signal includes a normal hit mode, a predetermined hit mode, a normal shift mode, and a predetermined shift mode.

When the lottery result signal is in the normal hit mode, the first symbol control means 51B displays each of the first variable display means 20 based on the display control program data stored in the ROM 52. The display content is controlled so that symbols other than the predetermined symbol "7" are arranged in the same manner in the column 21. Also, the first symbol control means 51B
In the case where the lottery result signal is in the normal off state, control is also performed to display a symbol combination other than the slotted line in each display column 21 of the first variable display means 20.

On the other hand, the second symbol control means 51C has a ROM
52, based on the display control program data stored in
If the lottery result signal is in a predetermined hit mode, the first variable display means 20 first displays the predetermined reach state (two "7" s are aligned), and then the second variable display means The control for displaying the predetermined symbol "7" on the reference numeral 25 is performed.

If the lottery result signal is in a predetermined deviation mode, the second symbol control means 51C firstly outputs the first symbol.
Control is also performed to cause the variable display means 20 to display a predetermined reach state, and then to cause the second variable display means 25 to display a number other than the predetermined symbol "7". Here, the second variable display means 2
5 is controlled so that the display field 26 in which a predetermined symbol "7" or the like is written last after the light-on lamp has apparently rotated.

When the lottery result signal is in the normal hit mode or the predetermined hit mode, the game control means 51D changes the symbol matching display on the first variable display means 20 and the second variable display means 25 accordingly. After completion, the special value is generated by opening and closing the attacker 31 of the value generating means 30.

When a winning signal is inputted from the winning detection switch 12a, the right holding means 51E determines whether or not a symbol is being displayed or a special value is being displayed. Is temporarily held, and a right holding signal is output to the holding display means 40.

Next, a gaming method using the gaming machine 10 will be described. In FIG. 3, the player launches a ball on the game board surface 11 by rotating the handle 17,
Compete to win prizes for each of the hits. This game will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 4. If a hit ball on the game board surface 11 successfully wins the specific winning opening 12 during the progress of the game (Y in FIG. 4, S1), the winning detection switch 12
"a" outputs a winning signal to the game management means 50.

The random lottery means 51A of the game management means 50
Receives a winning signal, one of the random number tables stored in the ROM 52 is selected, and a random lottery is executed (FIG. 4, S2). At this time, unless a symbol matching display described later is in progress or a special value is being generated (FIG. 4, S3
First, symbol matching display is started on the screen of the first variable display means 20 (FIG. 4, S9).

Even if the ball does not win the specific winning opening 12 (N in FIG. 4, S1), if the execution right of the unexecuted symbol matching display is reserved (Y in FIG. 4, S4), A random lottery which causes the symbol matching display is performed by the random lottery means 51A (FIG. 4, S2). The right executed at this time is subtracted and displayed by turning off the display lamp 41 of the hold display means 40 shown in FIG. On the other hand, if the right is not reserved (N in S4 in FIG. 4), the random lottery is not performed and the symbol matching display does not start (S5 in FIG. 4).

When a random lottery is performed while the symbol matching display is in progress (Y in S3 in FIG. 4), the right stored in the RAM 53 of the game management means 50 is the highest value which can be displayed on the hold display means 40. If it is less than 4 (FIG. 4, Y in S6),
The execution right of the symbol matching display is suspended up to four times (S7 in FIG. 4).

The number of rights reservation at this time is added and displayed by turning on the display lamp 41 of the reservation display means 40. Note that even if a random lottery is performed in a state where the right is held up to the maximum of four (N in S6 in FIG. 4), the right to execute the symbol matching display is discarded (S8 in FIG. 4).

When the symbol matching display is started, various symbols displayed in the three display fields 21 of the first variable display means 20 are scrolled. After scroll display for a predetermined time, the symbols are determined in the order of the left column, the right column, and finally the middle column, and the symbol combination as the display result is determined.

When the lottery result signal from the random lottery means 51A is in the normal winning mode, the first symbol control means 5
Based on the command from 1B, first, the same symbol other than the predetermined symbol "7" is determined in the right and left display columns 21 of the first variable display means 20, and the normal reach state is established (FIG. 4, Y in S14). Subsequently, the same symbol is determined in the middle display column 21, and a big hit combination, such as "1,1,1", is displayed (Y in S15 in FIG. 4).

On the other hand, when the lottery result signal from the random lottery means 51A is in a normal off state, the first variable display means 20 is controlled based on a command from the first symbol control means 51B.
In each of the display fields 21, out-of-line combinations other than the slotted lines are displayed (N in S 14 and N in S 15, FIG. 4). In the above case, the symbol matching display is performed only by the first variable display means 20, and the symbol matching display is not performed by the second variable display means 25.

If the lottery result signal is in the predetermined hit mode, this time, based on the command from the second symbol control means 51C, first, both the right and left display columns 21 of the first variable display means 20 are displayed. The predetermined symbol “7” is determined, and a predetermined reach state is reached (Y in FIG. 4, S10). Subsequently, the symbol is not specified in the middle display field 21, and instead,
The second variable display means 25 is driven to perform roulette-like display (S11 in FIG. 4).
5, the predetermined symbol "7" is determined (FIG. 4, S1).
In 2), an apparent jackpot combination is established.

On the other hand, if the lottery result signal is in a predetermined deviation mode, the first variable display means 20 first enters a predetermined reach state based on a command from the second symbol control means 51C (FIG. 4, S10). Y) After all, the second variable display means 25
In this case, a number other than the predetermined symbol “7” is specified (N in S12 in FIG. 4), resulting in an apparently out of order combination.

As described above, by combining the symbol matching by the first variable display means 20 with the symbol matching by the second variable display means 25, the symbol matching which has been simple and uniform in the past is novel and interesting. It can be. As described above, even when the display result of the first variable display means 20 is a big hit combination, or when the display result of the first variable display means 20 and the second variable display means 25 is a big hit combination, A special value in favor of the person (Fig. 4,
S13).

More specifically, when the lottery result of the random lottery means 51A is a normal hit mode or a predetermined hit mode, a special value generation signal is output from the game control means 51D to the value generating means 30 based on the result. Then, when the above-described symbol matching display is completed, the solenoid 32 constituting the value generating means 30 is driven to open the attacker 31 for a predetermined time (for example, 29 seconds), and then for a short time (for example, 2 to 2). 3
Seconds). Such an opening and closing operation is continued up to a predetermined number of rounds (for example, 16 times).

Value generation means 3 during generation of special value
The number of winning balls to 0 is counted by the winning ball counter 33 in the value generating means 30, and based on a signal from the game management means 50 for inputting the count signal in real time, the number of winning balls for each round is calculated. The information is displayed on the first variable display means 20. Further, even before the predetermined time has elapsed during the round, the winning ball counter 33
When the predetermined number (for example, 10) of winning balls are counted, the attacker 31 of the variable winning opening is closed.

FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the second variable display means 25A is significantly smaller than the second variable display means 25 of the first embodiment, and is provided at one end of the game board surface 11. In this way, by reducing the size of the second variable display means 25A, the second variable display means 25A can be arranged at an appropriate position on the game board 11, and various board layouts can be set.
