The third stop button operation detection sensor 65c detects that the third stop button 19c has been pressed. Detection signals from the respective stop button operation detection sensors 65a, 65b, 65c are sent to the main control board 70. When receiving the detection signals from the stop button operation detection sensors 65a, 65b, and 65c, the main control board 70 stops the rotation operation of the spinning reel corresponding to the stop button operation detection sensor by a predetermined control method. Thus, when the three spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c are stopped, a combination is established if the symbols attached to the spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c are in a specific combination on the effective winning line. Will do.

  The types of roles are roughly classified into big roles (bonuses) that are big hits and small roles that are big hits. There are three types of major roles: RB (regular bonus), BB (big bonus), and CT (challenge time). When the RB is won by the lottery process of the role by the main control board 70, the player operates the stop buttons 19a, 19b, 19c of the spinning reels 11a, 11b, 11c, thereby combining the three BAR symbols (RB symbols). ) Can be aligned on a valid pay line. When the RB symbols are aligned on a valid winning line, RB is established and RB is won. When this RB is established, the spinning-reel game machine executes an RB game. In the RB game, the JAC game is performed a predetermined number of times or less. Here, the JAC game is a game in which a combination of predetermined symbols is arranged on an effective winning line. For example, 15 medals are paid out when winning this JAC game. For this reason, the player can acquire a large amount of medals by performing such a JAC game a plurality of times. The RB game ends when the JAC game is played 12 times or when the winning of the JAC game reaches 8 times.

  In addition, when a BB is won by a lottery process of a role by the main control board 70, the player can align three red 7 symbols (BB symbols) on an effective winning line. When the BB symbols are aligned on a valid winning line, BB is established and BB is won. When this BB is established, the rotary gaming machine executes a BB game. In the BB game, the RB game is continuously performed a plurality of times. Thereby, the player can acquire a lot of medals in a short time. This BB game ends when the cumulative payout number of medals exceeds 300. Furthermore, when winning a CT by a lottery process of a role by the main control board 70, the player can align three blue 7 symbols (CT symbols) on an effective winning line. When the CT symbols are aligned on an effective winning line, CT is established and CT is won. When this CT is established, the rotary gaming machine executes a CT game. In the CT game, the reel control is in a special control state, and regardless of the lottery result of the combination, depending on the skill of the player, for example, any small combination can be aligned on an effective winning line. This CT game ends when the cumulative payout number of medals exceeds 150 or when RB is won by a lottery of a combination.

  On the other hand, the small role includes, for example, a role when watermelon symbols are aligned on an effective winning line (watermelon small role), and a role when bell symbols are aligned on an effective winning line (bell small role). , There is a role (cherry small role) when it stops at the left position on the winning line where the cherry symbol is valid. When these small combinations are established, a predetermined number of medals are paid out. In addition, there is a replay role (replay role) when replay (replay) symbols are aligned on an effective winning line. When this replay role is established, the revolving game machine will be re-played, that is, the same number of medals as the bet on this game will be automatically inserted, and the player will insert a new medal. However, the game can be played again. In this embodiment, since the replay role does not pay out medals, the replay role is not included in the small role, but the bet number setting for the next game, that is, the operation of inserting a new medal is not required. Assuming that the medals used in the game have been paid out, the replay combination can be handled as a small combination. Further, if the symbols constituting the winning combination are not aligned on the effective winning line, the winning combination is lost.

  The number-of-payout display unit 22 displays the number of medals to be paid out in accordance with the established combination. The main control board 70 controls the payout number display unit 22. For example, when the player presses the clearing button 21, the number of medals corresponding to the number of credits at that time is released from the medal outlet 23. The medal tray 24 is a tray for accumulating medals discharged from the medal discharge port 23.

  The image display unit 30 is provided on the upper side of the display window 12. In the present embodiment, a liquid crystal display device is used as the image display unit 30.

The image display unit 30 variably displays images of a plurality of characters, numbers, figures, characters, and the like, thereby performing the advance notice of the winning combination, notification of predetermined information, and other game effects. For example, a premium effect for notifying the jackpot confirmation is performed, or the types of symbols to be aligned on an effective winning line are announced. The control of the image display unit 30 is performed by the effect control board 80 based on various commands to be described later sent from the main control board 70 through the communication cable line 76. In the present embodiment, when the BB or RB winning by the internal lottery is confirmed, a chance indicator for notifying the player to that effect is not provided. This is because such confirmation notification is made by the image display unit 30.

  The electrical decoration display unit 40 is for notifying various game states or performing a game effect. The lighting display unit 40 is controlled by the effect control board 80 based on a command from the main control board 70.

These top LED units 41a, 41b, and 41c are mounted on the top LED substrates 44a, 44b, and 44c, respectively, and the top LED substrates 44a, 44b, and 44c control lighting of the top LED units.

  Panel LED units 42a, 42b, 42c, 42d, and 42e are provided on the left side of the display window 12 inside the front door along the direction from top to bottom in this order. In addition, panel LED units 42f, 42g, and 42h are provided in the order from top to bottom in this order on the right side of the display window 12 inside the front door. Eight panel LED units 42a, 42b,..., 42h are mounted on panel LED boards 45a, 45b,..., 45h, respectively, and each panel LED board 45a, 45b,. The lighting of the panel LED unit is controlled.

  The three backlights are provided inside the first drum reel 11a, the second drum reel 11b, and the third drum reel 11c, respectively. Each of these backlights is mounted on a backlight board 46a, 46b, 46c, and each of the backlight boards 46a, 46b, 46c controls lighting of the backlight.

  The speaker unit 50 produces a game with sound. The control of the speaker unit 50 is performed by the effect control board 80 based on a command from the main control board 70. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the speaker unit 50 includes a first door speaker 51, a second door speaker 52, and a rear speaker 53. The first door speaker 51 and the second door speaker 52 are respectively provided on the left side and the right side of the upper part inside the front door. That is, in FIG. 1, the first door speaker 51 and the second door speaker 52 are circles drawn by dotted lines on the upper part of the front door. Here, in the upper part of the front door, there is a gap between the portion where the top LED units 41a, 41b, and 41c are provided and the portion where the image display unit 31 is provided, and the first door speaker 51 and the second door. Sound from the speaker 52 comes out through this gap. Further, the rear speaker 53 is provided on the back side of the swivel game machine.

  The main control board 70 and the effect control board 80 are attached to the inside of the rotary type gaming machine. Here, the main control board 70 and the effect control board 80 are formed on different boards. The effect control board 80 is connected to the main control board 70 via the communication cable line 76.

  The main control board 70 mainly controls and manages game contents and medal payout. A plurality of integrated circuit elements are mounted on the main control board 70. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the main control board 70 includes random number generation means 71, ROM 72, RAM 73, and CPU 74. The ROM 72 stores various programs relating to game content control and the like. The RAM 73 is a working memory that temporarily stores data. The CPU 74 executes the program stored in the ROM 72 to manage the gaming state, the internal lottery process based on the random number value, the driving / stopping process of the spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c, and the command to the effect control board 80 Performs transmission processing.

  First, game state management will be described. The CPU 74 controls the transition of the gaming state based on the result of the role lottery performed when the game is started or the result of the game. FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state. In the swivel type gaming machine of the present embodiment, as the gaming state, “general gaming state (first gaming state)”, “RB internal state”, “BB internal state”, “CT internal state”, “ Various game states such as “RB game state”, “BB game state”, and “CT game state” are set. The “general gaming state” is a normal gaming state in which a normal game is played. In the general gaming state, a medal can be obtained when the small combination is established when the small combination is won. When the gaming machine is in the general gaming state, as shown in FIG. 3, when the RB is won by the role lottery based on the random value, the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the RB internal state during the next game. In addition, when BB is won, the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the BB internal state during the next game, and when CT is won, the gaming state shifts from the general gaming state to the CT internal state during the next game.

  The “RB internal state” is a gaming state in which the player has an opportunity to align the RB symbols on an effective winning line by operating the stop buttons 19a, 19b, and 19c. When the gaming machine is in the RB internal state, when the RB symbols are aligned on the valid pay line, the gaming state shifts from the RB internal state to the RB gaming state at the next game as shown in FIG. In other words, the RB internal state is a gaming state in a period from the start of the game next to the game in which the role lottery called RB winning is started until winning an RB. The “BB internal state” is a gaming state in which an opportunity to align the BB symbols on an effective winning line is provided by operating the player's own stop buttons 19a, 19b, 19c. When the gaming machine is in the BB internal state, when the BB symbols are aligned on the valid pay line, the gaming state shifts from the BB internal state to the BB gaming state at the next game as shown in FIG. In other words, the BB internal state is a gaming state in a period from the start of the game next to the game in which the winning lottery of winning of BB is started until winning a prize to BB. The “CT internal state” is a gaming state in which an opportunity to align the CT symbols on an effective winning line is provided by operating the player's own stop buttons 19a, 19b, 19c. When the gaming machine is in the CT internal state, when the CT symbols are aligned on the valid pay line, the gaming state shifts from the CT internal state to the CT gaming state during the next game as shown in FIG. That is, the CT internal state is a gaming state in a period from the start of the game next to the game in which a winning lottery called CT win is started until winning a CT. In the following, the “RB internal state”, “BB internal state”, and “CT internal state” are also referred to as “bonus internal state (large internal state)”.

  The “RB gaming state” is a gaming state in which an RB game in which a player can acquire a large amount of medals is executed. In the RB game, the JAC game is executed a predetermined number of times or less, and the RB game ends when the JAC game is played 12 times or when the winning of the JAC game reaches 8 times. When the RB game ends, the gaming state shifts from the RB gaming state to the general gaming state during the next game. The “BB gaming state” is a gaming state in which a BB game in which a player can acquire the largest amount of medals is executed. In the BB game, the RB game is continuously performed, and the BB game ends when the cumulative payout number of medals exceeds 300. When the BB game ends, the gaming state shifts from the BB gaming state to the general gaming state during the next game. The “CT gaming state” is a gaming state in which a CT game in which a player can acquire a large number of medals is executed. The CT game ends when the cumulative payout number of medals exceeds 150 or when RB is won in the lottery. When the cumulative payout number of medals exceeds 150 and the CT game ends, the gaming state shifts from the CT gaming state to the general gaming state during the next game. On the other hand, when the CT game is ended by winning the RB in the role lottery, the gaming state shifts from the CT gaming state to the RB internal state during the next game.

  Next, the internal lottery process based on the random value will be described in detail. The random number generating means 71 sequentially generates numerical values in a predetermined range, acquires the numerical values as random values at predetermined timing, and sends the acquired random values to the CPU 74. In the present embodiment, a 2-byte hardware random number counter is used as the random number generation means 71. For this reason, the range of numerical values generated by the random number generating means 71 is a range from 0 to 65535. Therefore, the obtained random number value is also a number within this range. The random number generation means 71 acquires a random number value when receiving a game start signal from the start lever operation detection sensor 64. The CPU 74 performs an internal lottery process based on the random number value.

  In the ROM 72, in addition to various programs, data showing the correspondence between the acquired random number value and the winning contents (BB, RB, CT, various small roles, replay roles, unsuccessful winnings) will be described in detail later. 4, each game state is stored. That is, in this embodiment, a total of 65536 total numerical data from 0 to 65535 is distributed to a predetermined number of winning areas. Here, the maximum number of winning areas is eight from “0” to “7” as shown in FIG. For each gaming state, a predetermined winning content is associated with each winning area. Such 65536 total numerical data is distributed to a predetermined number of winning areas, and the data corresponding to each winning area constitutes the lottery data used in the internal lottery process. It is stored in the ROM 72. The CPU 74 performs an internal lottery by collating the random number value acquired by the random number generating means 71 with the lottery data stored in the ROM 72. For example, when the revolving game machine is in the general gaming state and the random number value A is acquired by the random number generation means 71, the CPU 74 uses the lottery data as shown in FIG. Whether “0”, “1”,..., “7” is assigned is collated. If the random number A is distributed to the winning area “2”, the result of the internal lottery is that of the bell small role. Note that the number of winning areas and the number of numerical data allocated to each winning area generally differ for each gaming state.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of data indicating a correspondence relationship between a winning area and winning contents for each gaming state. This data constitutes a part of the lottery data stored in the ROM 72. In this example, when the gaming state is the general gaming state, the range of 65536 all numerical data is divided into eight winning areas from “0” to “7”. When the gaming state is the RB internal state, the BB internal state, or the CT internal state, the range of all numerical data is divided into five winning areas from “0” to “4”, and the gaming state is In the case of the RB gaming state, the BB gaming state, or the CT gaming state, the range of all numerical data is divided into four winning areas from “0” to “3”.

  For each gaming state, the following winning contents are assigned to each winning area. In other words, when the gaming state is the general gaming state, the winning area “0” is “unwined”, the winning area “1” is “cherry small part”, and the winning area “2”. For “Bell Small”, “Watermelon Small” for winning area “3”, “Replay” for winning area “4”, for “5” Assigns “RB”, “BB” to the winning area “6”, and “CT” to the winning area “7”.

  When the gaming state is the RB internal state, the BB internal state, or the CT internal state, “unfair” for the winning area “0” and “cherry” for the winning area “1”. “Small”, “Bell Small” for winning area “2”, “Watermelon Small” for winning area “3”, “Replay” for winning area “4” Respectively.

  When the gaming state is the RB gaming state or the BB gaming state, the winning area “0” is “unfair”, the winning area “1” is the “cherry small part”, and the winning area “ “Bell small part” is assigned to “2”, and “Watermelon small part” is assigned to winning area “3”. In addition, when the gaming state is the CT gaming state, “bad” is selected for the winning area “0”, “small group” is selected for the winning area “1”, and the winning area “2” is selected. “RB” is assigned to the winning area “3”, and “replay role” is assigned to the winning area “3”. Here, the “small role group” win is a predetermined number of symbols when a combination of any of the symbols, bell symbols, and watermelon symbols, which are symbols constituting the small role, is aligned on an effective winning line. The medal is paid out.

  In addition, for each gaming state, data indicating a correspondence relationship between the winning area and the range of 65536 numerical data is set. This data also constitutes a part of the lottery data stored in the ROM 72. For example, in the data indicating the correspondence relationship between the winning area and the numerical data range for the general gaming state, the numerical data range corresponding to the winning area “0” is won by “unwinning” with a probability of 47699/65536. The range is set so that The range of numerical data corresponding to the winning area “1” is set to a range that wins “cherry small role” with a probability of 537/65536, and the range of numerical data corresponding to the winning area “2” is The range is set to win the “bell bell” with a probability of 68810/65536, and the range of numerical data corresponding to the winning area “3” is won for the “watermelon miniature” with a probability of 660/65536 The range is set so that The range of numerical data corresponding to the winning area “4” is set to a range that wins the “replay role” with a probability of 8980/65536, and the range of numerical data corresponding to the winning area “5” is The range of numerical data corresponding to the winning area “6” is set to win “BB” with the probability of 330/65536. The range of the numerical data corresponding to the winning area “7” is set to a range where “CT” is won with a probability of 300/65536.

  As described above, in the data indicating the correspondence relationship between the winning area and the numerical data range for the general gaming state, the numerical data range corresponding to the winning area “4” is replayed about once every 7.3 times. The probability is set to win the role. Note that, in the data indicating the correspondence relationship between the winning area and the range of numerical data for other gaming states, the numerical data range corresponding to each winning area is similarly set to a predetermined range. Here, a detailed description of the contents of these data is omitted.

  The CPU 74 performs an internal lottery process based on the random number value sent from the random number generation means 71. That is, the CPU 74 performs an internal lottery by comparing the random number value sent from the random number generating means 71 with the lottery data. Specifically, the CPU 74 first recognizes the winning area to which the current random number value is distributed based on the data indicating the correspondence relationship between the winning area and the numerical data range for the gaming state. Next, the CPU 74 recognizes the winning content corresponding to the recognized winning area based on the data indicating the correspondence between the winning area and the winning content for the gaming state. Then, the CPU 74 determines, based on the winning contents, whether the winning result of the current internal lottery is a winning combination or a winning combination.

  Next, the driving / stopping process of the spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c will be described in detail. The CPU 74 performs reel control for driving and stopping the spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c. The reel control of the CPU 74 includes, for example, reel drive start control and reel drive stop control, as well as, for example, reel pull-in control performed when a winning combination is won, removal control performed when a winning combination is not won, and the like. is there.

  The reel pull-in control means that when a stop button is pressed, the symbol within the range of a predetermined number of frames (for example, 5 frames) from the symbol including the symbols on the winning line that is valid at the timing when the stop button is pressed. This means that when there is a symbol constituting a winning combination, the stop position of the spinning reel is controlled so that the symbol is drawn on the effective winning line. However, if there is no symbol that constitutes the relevant role within the range of the predetermined number of frames at the timing when the player presses the stop button, the reel pull-in control does not work and the winning symbol is effective. Stop on line. Therefore, at this time, the symbols constituting the winning combination are not aligned on the effective winning line, and the winning combination is not established.

  Outward control refers to controlling the stop position of the reel so that no combination is established on an effective winning line. Therefore, in this case, even if the player presses the stop button aiming at a specific combination, no combination is established and the game result is lost. Also, the CPU 74 performs the disengagement control when the gaming machine is in the general gaming state and the result of the internal lottery is BB or RB winning. Therefore, in this case, the BB symbol or the RB symbol is not aligned on the effective winning line.

  In addition, various standards have been established for the spinning machine. One of the standards is that if 4.1 seconds have not elapsed since the start lever 18 was operated, the spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c do not rotate even if the start lever 18 is operated next time. For this reason, the CPU 74 performs drive start control of the spinning reels 11a, 11b, and 11c so as to conform to the standard. However, even if the start lever 18 is operated next within 4.1 seconds after the start lever 18 is operated, the CPU 74 detects the inserted medal detection sensor 61, the MAX bet button operation detection sensor 62, one piece. If a signal has already been received from any of the input button operation detection sensors 63, an internal lottery process based on a random value is performed.

  Next, a command transmission process to the effect control board 80 will be described in detail. There are many types of commands that are transmitted from the main control board 70 to the effect control board 80. For example, there are a command related to a game effect (effect command) created based on the result of the internal lottery, a command (operation command) created when a predetermined operation is performed by the player, and the like.

  When a predetermined operation is performed by the player, the CPU 74 creates an operation command indicating that the operation has been performed, and outputs the created operation command to the effect control board 80. Specifically, when the start lever 18 is pressed, the first stop button 19a is pressed, the second stop button 19b is pressed, the third stop button 19c is pressed, and a medal is inserted or the MAX bet button 15 is pressed. Alternatively, an operation command is created when the one-sheet insertion button 16 is pressed. That is, when the start lever 18 is pressed, an operation command indicating that the start lever 18 is pressed is created. When the first stop button 19a is pressed, an operation command indicating that the first stop button 19a is pressed is created. When the second stop button 19b is pressed, an operation command indicating that the second stop button 19b is pressed is generated. When the third stop button 19c is pressed, an operation command indicating that the third stop button 19c has been pressed is created. Further, when a medal is inserted, an operation command indicating that a predetermined number of medals have been inserted from the medal insertion slot 13 is created. When the MAX bet button 15 is pressed, an operation command indicating that the MAX bet button 15 is pressed once is generated. Then, when the single-load button 16 is pressed, an operation command indicating that the single-load button 16 has been pressed a predetermined number of times is generated. However, the CPU 74 actually creates an operation command having exactly the same contents when a medal is inserted, when the MAX bet button 15 is pressed, or when the single-load button 16 is pressed.

  In addition, when the start lever 18 is pressed, the CPU 74 performs the above-described internal lottery, generates an effect command (effect command signal) based on the result of the internal lottery, and generates the generated effect command. Output to the control board 80. Although the contents of the effect command indicate the result of the internal lottery, the effect control board 80 determines the effect contents of the game based on the effect command.

  The effect control board 80 mainly realizes functions related to game effects. That is, when the effect control board 80 receives an effect command from the main control board 70, the effect control contents are determined based on the effect command and the like, and the image display unit 30, the electric display unit 40, and the speaker unit 50 are determined. To control.

  A plurality of integrated circuit elements are mounted on the effect control board 80. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the effect control board 80 includes a ROM 81, a RAM 82, and a CPU (effect control means) 83. The ROM 81 stores various programs related to game effects. The RAM 82 is a working memory that temporarily stores data. The CPU 83 controls a game effect by executing a program stored in the ROM 81. The ROM 81 stores various data in addition to the program.

  Next, the CPU 83 sends the image effect pattern data, the illumination effect pattern data, and the sound effect pattern data thus read to the image display unit 30, the illumination display unit 40, and the speaker unit 50, respectively. Thereby, the image display unit 30 displays an image based on the image effect pattern data, and the electrical decoration display unit 40 turns on the lamp and the LED based on the electrical display pattern data. The speaker unit 50 outputs sound based on the sound effect pattern data.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining a flag area of the RAM 73 of the main control board 70. In FIG. 5, (1) is for the replay role, (2) is for the BB, (3) is for the RB, (4) is for CT, (5) is for the small cherry role, and (6) is for the small bell role. , (7) is for a watermelon small part, and (8) is an unused flag area. When the start lever is operated by the player and the game is started, the CPU 74 of the main control board 70 performs an internal lottery process using random numbers. The random number generation means 71 of the main control board 70 acquires a random value by the timing received from the signal from the start lever operation detection sensor 64 and sends the acquired random number value to the CPU 74. Based on the lottery data stored in the ROM 72, the CPU 74 determines which winning area the random number value belongs to and determines which role has been won or not. In addition, a flag corresponding to the determined combination is set. In the present embodiment, the priority is higher for the flag located on the right side shown in FIG. Further, the flag of the small role or the replay role is effective only in the game of the time, for example, it is lowered at the end of the game, and the set state is not carried over to the next game. On the other hand, the flag of the major player is carried over not only to the game of that time but also to several games to be performed later. Once the big game flag is set, it will not be lowered until the big game prize is generated. While the main character flag is set, the gaming state (BB internal state, RB internal state or CT internal state) continues.

  Next, the processing procedure of the spinning cylinder type gaming machine of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining a basic processing procedure of the pull-in control in the bonus internal / intermediate state. When the gaming state becomes, for example, a state inside the BB, this flow is executed. In step S1, it is determined whether or not the replay combination is won by checking whether or not the replay combination flag (1) is set in the internal lottery of the game in the BB internal state. If the replay role is won and the flag (1) is set, the player performs pull-in control of the replay symbol in response to the stop button operation performed by the player, returns to the original, and waits for the next game start lever to be pressed. . If it is determined in step S1 that the replay combination has not been won, the process proceeds to step S3. Since the current gaming state is the BB internal state and the BB flag (2) is set, it is determined in step S3 whether or not a bonus symbol can be drawn. When the bonus symbol pull-in control can be performed, the process proceeds to step S4, the bonus symbol pull-in control is performed, the process returns to the first step (not shown), and the start lever is pressed. In this case, the next gaming state is the BB gaming state. If it is determined in step S3 that the bonus symbol cannot be drawn, the process proceeds to step S5, and it is determined whether or not the small role is won by looking at the winning flag. If the small combination is won, the process proceeds to step S6, and it is determined whether or not the winning combination symbol drawing-in control can be performed. If pull-in control of the small role symbol can be performed, the process proceeds to step S7 to perform pull-in control of the small role symbol, and the process returns to the first step (not shown) and waits for the start lever to be pressed. In this case, the next gaming state is the BB internal state. In addition, when it is determined in step S5 that the small role has not been won, and when it is not possible to perform the small role symbol pull-in control in step S6, the process returns to the first step (not shown) and the start lever is pressed. wait. Also in this case, the next gaming state is a state inside the BB. As described above, in the swivel type gaming machine according to the present embodiment, when the bonus is in the middle state, the control is performed so that the symbols are preferentially arranged in the order of the replay role, the major role, and the minor role. Even when the RB internal state is set, the same processing as in the above-described BB internal state is performed.

  FIG. 7 shows a processing procedure in the main control board, and is a flowchart for explaining a processing procedure when a bonus is won during the general gaming state. First, the CPU 74 of the main control board 70 waits for a detection signal from the inserted medal detection sensor 61, the MAX bet button operation detection sensor 62, or the one-sheet insertion button operation detection sensor 63. Upon receiving such a detection signal, the CPU 74 gives an operation command indicating that a predetermined number of medals have been inserted from the medal insertion slot 13 or that the MAX bet button 15 or the single insertion button 16 has been pressed a predetermined number of times. To 80. Then, the CPU 74 waits for a detection signal from the start lever operation detection sensor 64. When the CPU 74 receives a signal from any one of the insertion medal detection sensor 61, the MAX bet button operation detection sensor 62, and the one-sheet insertion button operation detection sensor 63, the CPU 74 receives the signal from the start lever operation detection sensor 64, Is recognized (step S11).

  When the game is started in this way, the random number generation means 71 of the main control board 70 acquires a random number value at the timing of receiving a signal from the start lever operation detection sensor 64 and sends the acquired random number value to the CPU 74. . Based on the lottery data stored in the ROM 72, the CPU 74 determines which winning area the random number value belongs to and determines which role has been won or not. Here, it is assumed that BB is won (step S12). The CPU 74 sets a flag (2) corresponding to the selected BB, and the CPU 74 performs a command generation process. Here, the effect command (1) is sent to the effect control board 80. When receiving the effect command (1), the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 displays an image of the big shrimp smelling the bonus winning shown in FIG. Thereby, the player can know that the bonus was won. However, at this stage, the player does not know which of BB, RB, and CT is won.

  Next, the CPU 74 waits for 4.1 seconds after receiving the signal from the start lever operation detection sensor 64, and controls the spinning reel drive means 66a, 66b, 66c to control the first spinning reel 11a. Then, the second drum reel 11b and the third drum reel 11c are rotated. Hereinafter, the CPU 74 performs a stop process for the three reel reels and the like. Since this process is a known process, the process for the stop button operation by the player is described here for the sake of simplicity. Is omitted. Subsequently, pull-in control is performed. This pull-in control is the same as the processing procedure shown in FIG. 6, but in this case, processing is performed according to the order shown by the one-dot chain line in FIG. Therefore, below, the step shown with a dashed-dotted line is demonstrated. In step S21, it is determined whether or not the replay combination is won. In this case, since only the bonus is won and the replay role is not won, the process proceeds to step S25 to determine whether or not the bonus symbol is positioned within the drawing-in range by operating the player's stop button. to decide. If it is within the pull-in range, the process proceeds to step S26, where bonus symbol pull-in control is performed, and a process associated with bonus winning is performed (step S27). At this timing, the CPU 74 of the main control board 70 sends an effect command (2) to the effect control board 80. When receiving the command (2), the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 displays an image when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. Thereby, the player can know that the bonus is won. When the process associated with the bonus winning is completed, the process returns to step S11 to wait for the start lever to be pressed. In this case, the next gaming state is a bonus gaming state.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S25 that the bonus symbol cannot be drawn, the process proceeds to step S29, and it is determined whether or not a small role is won. In this case, only the bonus is won, but the small role is not won. Therefore, the process proceeds to step S33, and processing is performed when the bonus is not won. At this timing, the CPU 74 of the main control board 70 sends an effect command (3) to the effect control board 80. When receiving the effect command (3), the CPU 84 of the effect control board displays an image on the image display unit 30 when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. Thereby, the player can know that the bonus was won but the symbols could not be aligned. When the bonus non-winning process is completed, the process returns to step S11 and waits for pressing of the start lever of the next game. As a result, the gaming state shifts to the bonus internal middle state described below.

  FIG. 8 shows a processing procedure in the main control board, and is a diagram showing a processing procedure when a small combination is won in the bonus internal middle state. The processing procedure shown in FIG. 7 and the processing procedure shown in FIG. 8 are performed by the same program. Therefore, in the processing shown in FIG. 8, the same step numbers are used for the steps performing the same processing as in FIG. Detailed description thereof will be omitted. This process is a process when the gaming state shifts to the bonus internal state as described above. Accordingly, a bonus flag is set. Here, BB flag (2) is set. When it is detected that the player has newly inserted a medal and pressed the start lever, the game is started (step S11). The CPU 74 of the main control board 70 performs an internal lottery process using random numbers. In this internal lottery, for example, if a cherry small combination is won, the CPU 74 sets a flag (5) corresponding to the selected cherry small combination, and sends an effect command (4) to the effect control board 80 at this timing ( Step S13). When receiving the effect command (4), the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 displays a red “7” image smelling the BB bonus winning shown in FIG. 10A on the large screen of the image display unit 30. Then, a cherry image showing that the cherry small role has been won is displayed on the small screen on the lower right. This screen is displayed before the player operates the stop button. Thus, the player knows that he has won the BB and that the cherry symbol is displayed in the lower right corner, so that he has won the cherry small role. The player can freely select either the BB symbol or the cherry symbol and operate the stop button to align them. In this case, the player can acquire a prize medal by operating the stop button to align the cherry symbols. As described above, in the case of the spinning-reel game machine of the present embodiment, when the small role is won in the bonus internal state, the player is notified that the small role is won. The award medal for the small role can be obtained by aiming at the symbol of the small role instead of the bonus symbol. Of course, bonus symbols may be arranged, but in this case, a small role award medal cannot be obtained. As described above, when the winch game machine of the present embodiment is in the bonus internal state, when the small role is won, the player is notified that the small role has been won, so the player is in the bonus internal state When a small role is won, a bonus symbol (BB in this case) can be avoided, and by aligning the symbols of the small role won internally, more prize medals can be obtained. Further, if the bonus lottery is not won in the internal lottery state, the bonus game state can be entered by aligning the bonus symbols.

  Next, the process proceeds to step S21, and it is determined whether or not the replay combination is won. In this case, the bonus flag (2) and the small combination flag (5) are set, but the replay combination flag is not set, and the process proceeds to step S25. In step S25, it is determined whether or not the bonus symbol can be withdrawn. If the bonus symbol can be pulled in, the process proceeds to step S26, where bonus symbol pull-in control is performed, and processing associated with the bonus winning is performed (step S27). At this timing, the CPU 74 of the main control board 70 sends an effect command (5) to the effect control board 80. When receiving the effect command (5), the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 displays an image when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. This allows the player to know that he has won the BB. When the process associated with the BB winning is finished, the process returns to step S11 and waits for the start lever to be pressed. In this case, the next gaming state is the BB gaming state.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S25 that the bonus symbol cannot be drawn, the process proceeds to step S29, and it is determined whether or not a small role is won. In this case, since the small role is also won, the process proceeds to step S30 to determine whether or not the cherry small role symbol can be drawn. If the cherry symbol can be pulled in, the process proceeds to step S31, the cherry symbol pulling-in control is performed, and the award medal is paid out (step S32). Next, the process proceeds to step S33, and processing is performed when the bonus is not won. At this timing, the CPU 74 of the main control board 70 sends an effect command (6) to the effect control board 80. When receiving the effect command (6), the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 displays an image of red “7” on the image display unit 30 when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. If it is determined in step S30 that the pull-in control cannot be performed, the process proceeds to step S33 without performing the processes in steps S31 and S32, the process in step S33 described above is performed, and the process returns to step S11. Wait for the start lever to be pressed. In this case, the next gaming state becomes the BB internal state again.

  Next, a processing procedure when a replay combination is won in the bonus internal state will be described. This processing procedure is the same as the above-described processing procedure shown in FIG. 8 except that the processing in step S13 is different. Therefore, the following will be described with reference to FIG. This processing is also processing when the gaming state shifts to the bonus internal state. Accordingly, a bonus flag is set. Here, BB flag (2) is set. When it is detected that the player has newly inserted a medal and pressed the start lever, the game is started (step S11). The CPU 74 of the main control board 70 performs an internal lottery process using random numbers. In the case of this process, since the replay role is won in this internal lottery, the CPU 74 sets a flag (1) corresponding to the selected replay role, and sends the effect command (4) to the effect control board 80 at this timing. (Step S13). When receiving the effect command (4), the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 displays a red “7” image smelling the BB bonus winning shown in FIG. A character image of the replay indicating that is won is displayed on the small screen on the lower right. Various signals are sent from the main control board 70 to the effect control board 80, and the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 can know the game status in the same manner as the CPU 74 of the main control board 70. Therefore, even if the same effect command is received, the corresponding process can be performed by distinguishing between the small role winning and the replay winning in the BB internal state. This notification screen is displayed before the player operates the stop button. Thereby, the player can know that he / she has won the BB and that the replay symbol is displayed in the lower right corner, so that he / she has won the replay role. The player can freely select either the BB symbol or the replay symbol and operate the stop button to align them. In this case, the player can enjoy the game without reducing the number of medals possessed by operating the stop button to align the replay symbols. However, in this case, as will be described later, in this embodiment, the replay symbols are always arranged regardless of the operation of the stop button by the player.

  Next, the process proceeds to step S21, and it is determined whether or not the replay combination is won. In the case of this process, since the BB flag (2) and the replay combination flag (1) are set, the process proceeds to step S22. In step S22, replay symbol pull-in control is performed, and processing associated with a replay winning combination is performed (step S23). Next, the process returns to step S11 and waits for the start lever to be pressed. In this case, the next game state becomes the bonus internal state again. In the case of this process, as described above, when the replay combination is won, the pull-in control for aligning the replay symbols on the effective line is always performed. The reason will be described below. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, only five symbols are arranged at the maximum between one replay symbol and the next replay symbol. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when the stop button is pressed by the reel pull-in control, the symbols including the symbols on the winning line effective at the timing of the pressing are included in the range of 5 frames from the symbol. In this case, when there is a symbol constituting the replay combination, the spinning reel stop control is performed so that the symbol is drawn on the effective line. In addition, the replay role has a higher priority than other major and minor roles. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the replay combination is won in the bonus internal middle state, the replay symbols are always arranged regardless of the stop button operation by the player.

  In the case of the swivel type gaming machine of the present embodiment, when the player is elected to the replay role in the bonus internal state, the player is notified that the replay role has been won. You can enjoy the game by avoiding the effort.

  In the processing procedure when a bonus is won during the general game shown in FIG. 7, when RB is won in step S12, the following processing is performed in the same manner as when BB is won. The CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 that receives the effect command (4) in step S13 after shifting to the bonus internal state shown in FIG. 8 displays an image of “RB” smelling RB winning shown in FIG. A large image of the display unit 30 is displayed, and at the same time, a cherry image showing that the cherry small role has been won is displayed on the small screen on the lower right. As described above, various signals are sent to the effect control board 80 from the main control board 70, and the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 can know the game status in the same manner as the CPU 74 of the main control board 70. . Therefore, even if the same effect command is received, the corresponding process can be performed by distinguishing the BB bonus internal state and the RB bonus internal state. From the image in FIG. 11A, the player knows that he has won the RB and that he has won the small cherry role. When the effect control board 80 receives the effect command (5) in step S27 of FIG. 8, the CPU 84 displays an image when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. This allows the player to know that he has won the RB. Furthermore, when the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 receives the effect command (6) in step S33, the image “RB” when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. indicate. Thereby, the player can know that he / she has won the RB. The other processes are the same as in the case where the above-mentioned BB is won.

  Next, in the processing procedure when a bonus is won during the general gaming state shown in FIG. 7, the processing procedure when CT is won in step S12 will be described. In the processing procedure shown in FIG. 7, when CT is won in step S12, the following processing is performed as in the case of winning BB. The CPU 84 of the effect control board 80, which has shifted to the bonus internal state shown in FIG. 8 and received the effect command (4) in step S13, displays an image of “CT” smelling CT winning shown in FIG. A large image of the display unit 30 is displayed, and at the same time, a cherry image indicating that the small cherry tree is won is displayed on the small screen on the lower right. As a result, the player knows that he has won CT and that he has won the small cherry role. When the effect control board 80 receives the effect command (5) in step S27, the CPU 84 displays an image on the image display unit 30 when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. This allows the player to know that he has won a CT. Furthermore, when the CPU 84 of the effect control board 80 receives the effect command (6) in step S33, an image of “CT” when the bonus symbol shown in FIG. indicate. Thereby, the player can know that it has won CT. If the CT symbols are aligned in the CT internal state, the CT game state is entered. In the CT gaming state, the number of frames for the pull-in control is two. Therefore, if the replay role is won in the CT gaming state, There are cases where it cannot be aligned. That is, when a replay combination is won in the CT gaming state, the replay combination is missed. The other processes are the same as in the case where the above-mentioned BB is won.

  According to the above-described embodiment, when control is performed to prioritize the drawing of bonus symbols when a small role is won internally in the bonus internal state, when the small role is internally won in the bonus internal state, Even if an image smelling the bonus win is displayed on the image display unit 30, an image that announces the internal winning of the small role is displayed in the corner of the same screen. Therefore, the player avoids the bonus symbol, The award medal for a small role can be obtained with the aim of Therefore, it is possible for a skilled player who is particularly good at playing games to make use of his skill. In addition, if the internal winning winning combination is a small role that is difficult for a player to acquire due to the arrangement state of the design of the rotator, etc., the player's skill can be concentrated on the game with the bonus symbol. It is possible to enjoy games according to the situation.

  Further, according to the above-described embodiment, when a small role is won internally in a bonus internal state, a specific bonus symbol and small symbol such as a BB symbol and cherry symbol are displayed on the image display unit 30. Therefore, the player can avoid the BB symbol and surely aim at the cherry small part.

  Also, with conventional gaming machines, when a small role is elected internally in a bonus internal state, the player arranges bonus symbols, so that a prize medal for the small role winning that can be originally obtained can be obtained. The player was losing. On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, when a small role is elected internally in the bonus internal state, an image notifying the internal winning of the small character is displayed in the corner of the screen, so the player avoids the bonus symbol. The award medals can be obtained by aligning the symbols of the small roles, so that the player does not make such a loss.

  Further, according to the above-described embodiment, when the replay combination is won internally in the bonus internal state, specific bonus symbols and replay symbols, for example, BB symbols and replay symbols are displayed on the image display unit 30. Therefore, the player can enjoy the game of aligning the replay symbols while avoiding the labor of aligning the BB symbols.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to said embodiment, A various deformation | transformation is possible within the range of the summary. For example, in the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which the gaming state in which a plurality of winning combinations can be won by internal lottery is a state in which a small combination is internally won in the bonus internal middle state, The present invention is not limited to this, and any game state may be used as long as a plurality of winning combinations exist in a state in which a winning combination is possible.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, when an internal bonus is won in the general gaming state, if a bonus is not arranged once, a processing procedure when a small role is won in the bonus internal middle state shown in FIG. However, when the bonus is internally won in the general gaming state, a plurality of games are performed, and the bonus symbols are not prepared, the processing procedure of FIG. 8 may be executed. Good.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the notification means notifies the player using an image has been described, but this notification may be performed using sound or light, or a combination of an image and sound or light. , You may make a notice.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which when a bonus combination is displayed in the middle state of the bonus, the selected bonus combination is displayed on a large screen and the selected bonus combination is displayed on a small screen. The screen size may be reversed, or both screens may be displayed in the same size.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which control is performed so that the replay symbols are always aligned when winning the replay role in the bonus internal state. However, when the replay role is won in the bonus internal state, You may control so that the state which cannot align a pattern will arise. Such control can be easily realized, for example, by setting the number of frames for pull-in control to 4 frames or less, or by arranging other symbols of 6 frames or more between adjacent replay symbols. When such a control is performed, when a replay role is won internally in the bonus internal state, the player can enjoy a game in which the replay symbols are aligned by displaying on the screen that the replay role has been won internally. be able to.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where one bonus combination is won internally in the bonus internal state has been described. However, for example, a plurality of small combinations or specific major roles can be awarded as in the CT operating state. In this case, it may be controlled to preferentially align the symbols of the small role and the big role with a large number of prize medals.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the present invention is applied to a spinning-type game machine has been described. For example, the present invention is applied to various game machines such as a pachinko machine, a poker game machine, a mahjong game machine, and a dart game machine. You may apply to.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the game medium having a valuable value is a medal and the valuable value input means is a medal slot is described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the game medium is not limited to this. The medal may have an IC tag, and the valuable value input unit may include a reading unit that reads information on the IC tag. Further, instead of inserting a medal, a prepaid card that stores valuable value information (for example, frequency) may be inserted. In this case, the valuable value inserting means stores the valuable value information stored in the prepaid card ( It may be provided with card information reading means for reading the remaining frequency).

As described above, according to the gaming machine of the present invention, since the player has been notified by the notification means that a plurality of winning roles can be won, the player can win a symbol with a low priority. You can aim for it, or you can aim for winning a high-priority design. For example, if you win a small role inside the bonus inside state, you can avoid the bonus and align the symbols of the small role aiming at the small role, so the player will win the prize for the small role that was won internally Is possible. In addition, even when the re-gamer is internally elected in the bonus internal state, the player can enjoy the game without reducing the possession quantity of the game medium by arranging the re-gamer symbols. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to a spinning-type game machine or the like that plays a game using random numbers.

[0002]
There is a gaming machine that notifies this when it is won. As described above, in the conventional spinning-type game machine, when a small role is won internally in the bonus internal state, the player can obtain the prize medal of the small role that was won internally as much as possible.

[0011]
In order to achieve the above object, the gaming machine according to the fifth aspect of the present invention is the gaming machine according to the fourth aspect of the invention, wherein the gaming state in which a plurality of winning combinations are present in a state where a winning combination can be won is determined by a lottery The game includes a state where a small role or a re-playing role is won by lottery in a game in a state where a major player has not won a prize while winning as a winning role.

In order to achieve the above-described object , the present invention provides a valuable value input means for inputting a game medium or valuable value information having a predetermined valuable value in playing a game, and a display area capable of variably displaying a plurality of symbols. A plurality of variable display means , a start means for starting variable display of the plurality of variable display means, and a variable display of each variable display means variably displayed based on an operation of the start means is individually controlled to stop. And a lottery means for performing a lottery of a major player, a small player, a replaying player or an unfair winner based on the operation of the starter, and for each winning combination won by lottery of this lottery means, if the extent possible pull-symbols corresponding to the winning combination when stop control of the variable display means, control the variable display means such symbols corresponding to the winning combination in the display area may display stop And, that if stopped and displayed combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination in the display area the game results have row game as the prize of the winning combination, a plurality of types of winning combination coexist with possible winning state There are multiple types of major players, and by winning a prize, the gaming state of a predetermined number of times thereafter changes according to the type of major player who won the prize. The winning game is a role that allows the acquisition of a predetermined game medium or valuable value information, and the re-game player newly inputs a predetermined game medium or valuable value information by winning a prize. it is useful that it is possible to perform again the game without, if important task is won by the lottery is held as internal winning state winning of the important task until prize to the major role, small prize or replay by lottery When a role is elected Preferentially than small win a major role priority for the lottery may be held as internal winning state winning of the small officer or the replay combination only in the game done, pull the winning symbol If there are multiple types of winning combinations in the internal winning state and there are multiple symbols corresponding to the winning combination within the pullable range at the time of stop control, and control means for controlling each of the variable display means to give priority to symbols priority among those symbols corresponding to the higher winning stop retracts in the display area, when the major role is in the internal winning state, It performs display of important task confirmation notice with display of the major role in image display, when the small win has won the lottery in games played under the display of the important task confirmation announcement, major role determined during the game Announcement table It shows a player display of symbols of a small winning combination is won in the game with the configured and a notification unit that performs before it row to stop operation of stopping means.

With the above configuration, when a small role is won in a lottery in this game when the major player is in the internal winning state, the notification means displays the symbol of the small role that was won in the game along with the display of the major role confirmation notice at the time of the game. The display is performed before the player performs the stop operation of the stop means. For this reason, the player can aim for the winning of the big role with high priority, or can win the small role with low priority. Therefore, in this case, the player can acquire the game medium or valuable value information by avoiding the symbol corresponding to the major role and arranging the combination of symbols corresponding to the minor role. It is possible to avoid missing the chance of acquiring valuable value information.

In order to achieve the above-described object , the present invention provides a valuable value input means for inputting a game medium or valuable value information having a predetermined valuable value in playing a game, and a display area capable of variably displaying a plurality of symbols. A plurality of variable display means, a start means for starting variable display of the plurality of variable display means, and a variable display of each variable display means variably displayed based on an operation of the start means is individually controlled to stop. And a lottery means for performing a lottery of a major player, a small player, a replaying player or an unfair winner based on the operation of the starter, and for each winning combination won by lottery of this lottery means, If the symbol corresponding to the winning combination is within a range that can be pulled in during stop control of the variable display means, each variable display means is controlled so that the symbol corresponding to the winning combination can be stopped and displayed in the display area. However, if the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination is stopped and displayed in the display area, the game results in a game where the winning combination is won, and multiple types of winning combinations may coexist There are multiple types of big players in the gaming machine, and by winning a prize, the game state of a predetermined number of times thereafter changes according to the type of the major player who won the prize. This is a role that makes it possible to acquire a predetermined game medium or valuable value information, and the re-game player can win a prize without newly inputting the predetermined game medium or valuable value information. If a major player wins by lottery, the winning role of the major player will be held in the internal winning state until winning the winning role. If you win Only holds the winning of the small role or the re-playing player as an internal winning state only in the game in which the lottery has been performed, and prioritizes the re-playing role over the major role for the winning combination. When priority is set and there are multiple types of winning combinations in the internal winning state and there are multiple symbols corresponding to the winning combination within the pullable range during stop control A control means for controlling each variable display means so that the symbol corresponding to the winning combination having a higher priority among those symbols is given priority to the display area and stopped, and when the main character is in the internal winning state. In addition to displaying an image of the major actor confirmation with the display of the major actor in the image display, if the re-gamer is elected in the lottery in the game under the display of the major actor final announcement, in the case of the game Confirmed role And a notification means for displaying the symbol of the re-gamer won in the game before the player performs the stop operation of the stop means.

With the above configuration, if a re-player is elected in the current game lottery when the major player is in the internal winning state, the notification means displays the major player finalization notice at the time of the game and displays the re-game player elected in the game. The symbol is displayed before the player performs the stop operation of the stop means. For this reason, for example, when the control means controls the variable display means so that the combination of symbols corresponding to the re-gamer is always aligned when the re-gamer is won, the player It is possible to enjoy a game in which the combination of symbols corresponding to the re-gamer is aligned while avoiding the labor of aligning the symbol combinations corresponding to the low major player. On the other hand, in the case where the control means controls the variable display means so that the combination of symbols corresponding to the re-playing role is not always provided when the re-playing role is won, the player is given priority.
