Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine such as a slot machine, and in the advantageous game such as ART, a guaranteed value of a profit value such as the number of additional games (for example, the number of additional guaranteed games) is set in advance and acquired by the player When the total value such as the number of added games is less than the guaranteed value, the subsequent game can be advantageously developed using the guaranteed value.

Conventionally, in a plurality of special extra games transferred from ART games, a game machine such as a slot machine or the like that notifies the number of games acquired by a predetermined extra lottery and adds the total number of acquired games to the ART game. (See paragraph numbers “0729”, “0730”, “0734”, “0735”, and FIGS. 132 and 133 of Patent Document 1).
The number of guaranteed games (5G to 16G) is set for the above-described special extra game.
Further, conventionally, a guaranteed value (300 times) is set for a predetermined period of infinite advantageous game (ART) that shifts from the normal game, and the number related to the game result of infinite advantageous game (ART) over the predetermined period. There is known a “game machine” such as a slot machine that counts (the number of games) and executes predetermined advantageous control when the count value is smaller than the guaranteed value (paragraph number in Patent Document 2). “0064” to “0069” and FIG. 3).

Furthermore, conventionally, in a point acquisition game consisting of a predetermined game period (5G), when a predetermined point cannot be acquired in each acquired game, there is known a “slot machine” in which points are supplemented by the game. (See claims 1 and 2 of patent document 3, paragraph numbers “0168”, “0169”, “0202”, and FIGS. 31 and 36 to 38).
Further, in the conventional BB mode that shifts from the normal mode, during the BB mode, it is determined whether or not the total acquired number of sheets before payout reaches a predetermined number (480 sheets), and “predetermined number−acquired number” is calculated, There is known a “program and recording medium” for gaming machines that uses the calculated number as the acquired number (see paragraph numbers “0042” to “0044” of FIG. 3 and FIG. 3).

And, when the total section is shorter than the guaranteed section, an additional management means (for example, security management means 255) that gives the player an additional section that is equal to or greater than the guaranteed section, and the additional lottery means (for example, profit) The value lottery means 252) tentatively divides the plurality of games into at least a first half game and a second half game, and the upper lottery probability for the first half is temporarily set to a high probability in order to obtain the guaranteed section in the first half game. Suppose that the added lottery probability for the second half is set to a low probability compared to the added lottery probability for the first half, and the predetermined lottery probability is set constant among the plurality of games. The lottery probability is used, and the predetermined lottery probability is set to be higher than the virtual lottery probability for the latter half.

Since this invention is comprised as mentioned above, there exists an effect as described below.
(Claim 1)
According to invention of Claim 1, there exist the following effects.
That is, according to the first aspect of the present invention, when the total value of the profit value obtained by the player exceeds the guaranteed value, the player can enjoy the profit exceeding the guaranteed value. In addition, unfortunately, even when the total value is less than the guaranteed value, it is possible for the player to receive at least the benefit of the guaranteed value.

As a result, according to the first aspect of the present invention, it is possible to fairly distribute the profit based on the guaranteed value to the players at a minimum without being affected by the difference in the skill of the players or accidents.
For example, when the profit value is determined by lottery according to a predetermined probability, even if a plurality of profit values are determined the same number of times, these total values are not necessarily the same total value every time. For example, a certain total value may be a value indicating a large profit (for example, 500 games, 500 cards, 500 Pt (points, hereinafter referred to as “Pt”)), or a certain total value may be a small profit. (E.g., 10 games, 10 cards, 10 Pt) (downswing). In this way, the total value is the total (total / total) of profit values determined by lottery, so if the subsequent game is developed based on this total value as it is, there will be a large range in the advantages of the game. May end up.

  On the other hand, in the invention according to claim 1, the subsequent game is developed according to the result of comparing the total value and the guaranteed value, not the total value as it is. For this reason, even if the total value becomes a value indicating a large profit and the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: large”, this (upward) is allowed. On the other hand, when the total value is a value indicating a small profit and the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: small”, this (downside) is not allowed and based on a predetermined guarantee value. Thus, the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: medium (> small)”.

Therefore, the player can play a game that determines the profit value while the minimum advantage (medium) is ensured, but the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: large”. You can expect. Moreover, while determining the profit value, for example, the lottery probability until the total value is calculated, such as increasing the lottery probability when the profit value is small or decreasing the lottery probability when the profit value is large. Since it is not necessarily changed, the lottery table used by the profit value lottery means is reduced, the capacity is reduced, and a simple lottery process can be realized. This is suitable when the profit value lottery means and the security management means according to the first aspect of the present invention are provided on the main control board.
(Claim 2)
According to the invention described in claim 2, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 1, the following effect is obtained.

That is, according to the second aspect of the present invention, when the end condition is satisfied, the total value is compared with the guaranteed value, so that at the time when the end condition is satisfied, at least the profit from the guaranteed value is obtained by the player. Can enjoy.
(Claim 3)
According to the invention described in claim 3, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 1 or 2, the following effect is obtained.
That is, according to the third aspect of the present invention, when the total value is less than the guaranteed value in the final game of the plurality of games, the difference value from the guaranteed value is obtained and the difference value is added to the total value. Thus, at least the player can benefit from the guaranteed value.
(Claim 4)
According to the invention described in claim 4, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 3, the following effect is obtained.

That is, according to the invention described in claim 4, it is possible to notify the player of the total value obtained by adding the difference value with the guaranteed value to the profit value determined by the profit value lottery means in the final game.
As a result, according to the invention described in claim 4, the guarantee result can be notified to the player in an easily understandable manner.
(Claim 5)
According to the invention described in claim 5, in addition to the effect of the invention described in any one of claims 1-4, the following effect is provided.

That is, according to the fifth aspect of the present invention, the reference value constituting the profit value can be increased by counting the number of repetitions of the continuous lottery.
(Claim 6)
According to the invention described in claim 6, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 5, the following effect is obtained.
That is, according to the invention described in claim 6, the number of repetitions of the continuous lottery can be changed by determining the continuation rate by lottery.
(Claim 7)
According to invention of Claim 7, there exist the following effects.

That is, according to the invention described in claim 7, it is possible to guarantee the number of additional games in the advantageous game under the same technical idea as that of the invention described in claim 1.

As a method for setting the bet number, there are a method for inserting a medal from the medal insertion slot 38 and a method for setting a credit medal as the bet number by operating the max bet switch 34. Then, when the start switch 40 is operated on condition that the specified bet number (three) is set, the bet number is fixed and either of a plurality of combinations is won by the combination lottery means 210 or A lottery lottery (role drawing) is performed. At almost the same time as the lottery, it is determined whether or not a predetermined time (4.1 seconds in the present embodiment) has elapsed since the start of the rotation of the reel 62 in the previous game. After a lapse, all three reels 62 start to rotate.

After starting the rotation of the reel 62, a predetermined condition (in this embodiment, after executing the process of accelerating the reel 62, a predetermined sensor detects that the rotational position of the reel 62 is the reference position) is established. Then, the stop switch 50 can be operated (stop operation enabled state).
Thereafter, when one of the three stop switches 50 is operated, the rotation of the reel 62 corresponding to the stop switch 50 is stopped. When all the three stop switches 50 have been operated, the rotation of all three reels 62 is stopped.
At this time, when a combination of predetermined symbols 61 is arranged on the effective line 86, processing corresponding to the combination of symbols 61 is performed. The gaming machine 10 according to the present embodiment is formed such that a profit is given to a player when a predetermined combination of symbols 61 is arranged on the active line 86. For example, when the combinations of symbols 61 corresponding to the small combinations are arranged on the active line 86, the number of medals corresponding to the combination of the roles illustrated in FIGS. 8 to 10 are paid out to the player.

As shown in FIG. 6, the gaming states controlled by the main control means 200 are roughly classified into “normal state” (RT0, NOM), “RT state” (RT2 to 5), “RT1 state” (RT1 ) Is provided. “RT” is an abbreviation of so-called “replay time”. In “RT state”, the replay probability of winning the replay role is set higher than “normal state” and “RT1 state”. Yes. Details will be described later with reference to FIG.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, the game state that is mainly controlled by the main control unit 200 and is executed by the control of the sub-control unit 300 in accordance with a command from the main control unit 200 is roughly divided into “normal state”. (Non-AT state) and “AT state” are provided. “AT” is an abbreviation for so-called “assist time”, and in this embodiment, a state in “AT” is also referred to as “AT state”.

The AT state is set with a high probability of notifying the push order (for example, a specific push order in which a winning combination advantageous to the player is established) when a lottery result (comb) in which the push order of the stop switch is set is won. ing. The “AT state” is controlled by the main control unit 200 at the start and end, and is executed by the AT state control unit 330 of the sub control unit 300 in accordance with a command from the main control unit 200.

The start and end of the “AT state” are controlled by the main control unit 200, but the present invention is not limited to this, and may be controlled in cooperation with the sub-control unit 300.

The “AT state” is roughly classified into an “ART ready state”, an “ART state”, and an “addition-specific state” (addition-specific zone). “ART” is a game that combines “RT” and “AT”. In this embodiment, “ART” constitutes “advantageous game”, and the state in “ART” is also referred to as “ART state”. Specifically, in FIG. 6, the state is “RT4” or “RT5”, and in FIG. 7, the state is “first ART state” or “second ART state”.
Unlike the “AT state”, the “non-AT state” is a gaming state in which it is difficult to report the pressing order of the stop switch 50, and the “normal general state”, “specialized state”, and “ART precursor state” are Is provided.

In the present embodiment, the “ART state” and the “ART ready state” are common in terms of an ART state in which AT and RT are combined. However, the “ART ready state” is a state provided to shift from the normal state (RT1) to the “ART state” (RT4 / RT5) through the steps (RT2 and RT3), and is changed to the “ART state”. In comparison, the probability that the order of pressing the stop button 50 is notified is set to be low (the payout rate is set to be lower than the “ART state”).
(Role lottery means 210)
The role lottery means 210 is a means included in the main control means 200, and when the start switch 40 is operated, one of the “role of lottery” shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. That is, it is determined by lottery (role lottery) of “losing”. The role lottery means 210 includes a lottery table 211 for a role lottery, and the lottery table 211 is stored on the ROM of the main control means 200. The role lottery means 210 compares predetermined lottery data with random numbers extracted from random numbers generated by predetermined random number generation means (random number generation circuit) having a loop counter that repeatedly counts integer values within a predetermined range. Then, it is determined whether or not it is won.

The process by the combination lottery means 210 is performed in step S12 (see FIG. 13) described later.

Here, as shown in FIG. 6, the “RT1 state” shifts when the first RT transition symbol is displayed in the normal state, and the replay probability is set to “normal probability” as in the “normal state”. ing.
(RT state control means 243)
The RT state control means 243 controls the progress of the game in the RT state.

Here, as shown in FIG. 6, the “RT state” shifts when any of the second RT transition symbol, the fourth RT transition symbol, and the fifth transition symbol is displayed in the RT1 state, and the replay probability is “normal”. Compared with “state” and “RT1 state”, it is set to “high probability”.
In the “RT state”, four states “RT2” to “RT5” are provided.
When either the sixth RT transition symbol or the seventh RT transition symbol is displayed in the “RT state”, the state shifts to the “normal state”.
(Advantageous game control means 250)
The advantageous game control means 250 is advantageous for controlling an advantageous game in a predetermined predetermined game section, for example, an ART state, which is more advantageous than a normal game, and specifically, determines the start and end of the ART state. doing.

When the advantageous game control means 250 determines the start of the ART state, a start command is transmitted to the sub-control means 300 via the transmission control means 270. When the sub-control unit 300 receives the start command via the reception control unit 310, the sub-control unit 300 shifts to the AT state and causes the AT state control unit 330 to execute the AT state. At this time, since the gaming state controlled by the main control means 200 is “RT4” or “RT5”, the state shifts to the ART state.
Thereafter, when the advantageous game control means 250 determines the end of the ART state, an end command is transmitted to the sub-control means 300. When receiving the end command, the sub control unit 300 shifts from the AT state to the normal state (non-AT state) and causes the normal state control unit 320 to execute the normal state.

Although both the “start condition” and “end condition” of the ART state are controlled by the advantageous game control means 250 on the main control means 200 side, the present invention is not limited to this, and the start / end of the “ART state” is determined. It may be controlled by cooperating with the sub-control unit 300 side, or only “end” of the ART state may be controlled by the sub-control unit 300 side. Further, although the ART state is illustrated as an advantageous game, the present invention is not limited to this, and a simple “AT state” may be used.
As shown in FIG. 5, the advantageous game control means 250 includes the following means.

(Profit value lottery means 252)
The profit value lottery means 252 determines a “profit value” by lottery when a preset lottery condition is satisfied.

Here, “profit value” means “value” determined by the profit value lottery means 252 and corresponds to, for example, “the number of added games” of advantageous games (for example, so-called “ART”). Here, the “value” includes a natural number (positive integer) and “0”, but is not limited to this, and “0” may be excluded or a “negative integer” may be added. Also good.
As the “profit value”, for example, “the number of added games” of advantageous games (for example, “ART”) is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the “number of initial games” shown in FIG. It is not limited to the number, but may be the number of sets, the number of points, or the like. In addition, as an advantageous game, so-called “ART” has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and so-called “AT” may be used.

Further, if the lottery condition is satisfied after the “predetermined start condition” is satisfied, the lottery by the profit value lottery means 252 is executed, and the “predetermined end condition” that is satisfied after the “start condition” is satisfied is satisfied. By comparing the “total value” and the “guaranteed value” by the security management means 255 described later, and using the “total value” or the “guaranteed value” as a result of the comparison, the subsequent game can be advantageously developed. ing.
Here, the “predetermined start condition” corresponds to, for example, an entry into an “additional specialization zone” (an addition specialization state) in the “ART state”.

Here, the “total value” is a “value” obtained by totaling the profit values determined by the profit value lottery means 252. If the profit value can be obtained only once, the profit value Matches.
Here, the “guarantee value” means a “profit value” stored in the guarantee value storage means 254 described later and guaranteed to the player among the “profit values”.
As an example of the “predetermined start condition”, the entry into the “additional specialization zone” (additional specialization state) is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be determined when a predetermined symbol is displayed, when a stock or points reach a predetermined value, or by a lottery of success or failure of the start condition.

Further, the profit value lottery means 252 executes a lottery within a preset period of a plurality of games.
Specifically, the profit value lottery means 252 executes at least a plurality of lotteries in the “advantageous game” and determines the “number of added games” by the lottery.
Here, the “advantageous game” corresponds to, for example, a so-called “ART”.
Here, the “number of added games” includes natural numbers (positive integers) and “0”, but is not limited thereto, and “0” may be excluded or “negative integers”. May be added.

In addition, as the “advantageous game”, so-called “ART” is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and so-called “AT” may be used.
On the other hand, the profit value lottery means 252 determines an “additional section” that can extend the “game section” of “advantageous game” by adding lottery, and executes an additional lottery between a plurality of preset games. It also functions as “additional lottery means”.
Here, the “advantageous game” corresponds to, for example, a so-called “ART”.
Here, the “game section” is defined by “number of games”, for example.

Here, the “additional section” is defined by, for example, “the number of additional games”.
In addition, as the “advantageous game”, so-called “ART” is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and so-called “AT” may be used.
Further, although “game number” is exemplified as “game section”, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be defined by, for example, the number of sets or the number of points.
Furthermore, although “the number of added games” is exemplified as the “additional section”, it is not limited to this, and may be defined by the number of sets, the number of points, or the like.

Further, when the profit value lottery means 252 functions as an “additional lottery means”, the plurality of games are temporarily divided into at least the first half game and the second half game, and the first half of the extra lottery probability is acquired in the first half game. For this reason, it is assumed that a high probability is temporarily set, and that the extra lottery probability for the second half is compared with the upper lottery probability for the first half and is hypothetically set to a low probability, the extra lottery probability is constant among multiple games. The predetermined lottery probability set in (2) is used, and the predetermined lottery probability is set to a higher probability than the added lottery probability for the latter half.
The relationship between the “additional lottery probability” and “guarantee processing” will be described later.
(Total value calculation means 253)
The total value calculation means 253 calculates the total value of the profit values determined by the profit value lottery means 252.

Here, the calculation timing of “calculate the total value” corresponds to, for example, “every profit value lottery, each time”.
The timing for calculating “total value calculation” is exemplified by “every profit value lottery, each time”, but is not limited to this, and includes batch calculation in “final game”.
Specifically, the total value calculation unit 253 is “calculates“ total number of games ”” of the number of additional games determined by the profit value lottery unit 252.

Here, the “total number of games” is, for example, the “number of games” obtained by adding up the number of added games determined by the profit value lottery means 252 shown in FIG. When the number of games can be obtained only once, it matches the number of additional games.
Here, the calculation timing of “calculate the total number of games” corresponds to, for example, “every lottery for the number of additional games, each time”.
The timing of calculating “Calculate the total number of games” is exemplified by “every time for the number of additional games, each time”, but is not limited to this, and includes a batch calculation in the “final game”. .
(Guaranteed value storage means 254)
The guaranteed value storage means 254 stores in advance the minimum degree of the total value calculated by the total value calculating means 253 as a guaranteed value.

Specifically, the guaranteed value storage unit 254 stores in advance the minimum value of the total number of games calculated by the total value calculating unit 253 as “guaranteed game number”.
Here, “the number of guaranteed games” means the “number of added games” stored in the guaranteed value storage means 254 and guaranteed by the player.
(Security management means 255)
When the total value calculated by the total value calculation means 253 exceeds the security value stored in the security value storage means 254, the security management means 255 can advantageously develop subsequent games using the total value. When the total value calculated by the total value calculation means 253 is less than the guarantee value stored in the guarantee value storage means 254, the subsequent game can be advantageously developed using the guarantee value. It is.

Here, a case where “total value> guaranteed value” and a case where “total value <guaranteed value” are specified.
Depending on how “profit value” is acquired, “total value = guaranteed value” may be considered. That is, since “total value = guaranteed value” is the same as a result, “guaranteed value” may be “profit value”, or “total value” may be “profit value”.
Further, if the lottery condition is satisfied after the “predetermined start condition” is satisfied, the lottery by the profit value lottery means 252 is executed, and the “predetermined end condition” that is satisfied after the “start condition” is satisfied is satisfied. The security management means 255 compares the “total value” with the “guaranteed value”, and as a result of the comparison, the subsequent game can be advantageously developed using the total value or the guaranteed value.

Here, the “predetermined end condition” corresponds to, for example, the “final game” in the “additional special zone” (additional specialization state).
In addition, although the “final game” in the “addition special zone” (addition specialization state) is exemplified as the “predetermined end condition”, the present invention is not limited to this, and the establishment of a predetermined combination in the “addition specialization zone” It may be determined when a predetermined symbol is displayed, when a stock or points reach a predetermined value, or by a lottery of success or failure of an end condition.
Furthermore, the security management means 255, when a lottery is executed by the profit value lottery means 252 in the final game of a plurality of games, and the “total value” obtained by adding the “profit value” determined by the lottery is less than the security value In addition, by obtaining a “difference value” from the guarantee value and adding the difference value to the total value, the game after the final game can be advantageously developed.

Here, the “profit value” means the “final profit value” determined by the final lottery of the last round.
Here, the “total value” is obtained by adding the “final profit value” to the “final profit value” determined by lottery and the total value calculated by the total value calculation means 253. It means profit value.
Here, the “difference value” means a profit value obtained by subtracting the “total value” from the “guaranteed value”.
Further, the security management means 255 adds the difference value to the profit value determined by the profit value lottery means 252 in the final game to obtain a total value.

Specifically, in the final lottery, the security management means 255 stores in the security value storage means 254 the added game number obtained by adding the final added game number determined by the final lottery to the total game number. When the number of guaranteed games is exceeded, the number of added games is notified by the notification means 70, and then the number of added games is notified by the notification means 70 as the total number of games.
In addition to this, the security management means 255 calculates the difference from the number of guaranteed games when the number of added games is less than the number of guaranteed games, and adds the final added number of games to the difference game number. After the number of games is notified by the notification means 70, the number of guaranteed games is notified by the notification means 70 as the total number of games.

On the other hand, the security management means 255 calculates the “total section” of the “determined section” determined by the additional lottery means (profit value lottery means 252) between a plurality of games, and calculates the total calculated by the end of the plurality of games. Compare the section with the “guaranteed section”. If the total section is longer than the guaranteed section, the total section is given to the player. It also functions as “addition management means” to be given to the player.
Here, the “determined section” means, for example, the “section” determined by the extra lottery means (for example, the profit value lottery means 252) shown in FIG. 5, for example, “the number of extra games in the advantageous game (for example,“ ART ”). "Corresponds. “Decision section” means an individual “section”, whereas “additional section” means an overall “section”, but one “determination section” by the end of multiple games. In the case where only the information can be obtained, the “determined section” and the “additional section” match.

Here, the “total section” is a “section” obtained by summing up the “determined sections” determined by the extra lottery means (for example, profit value lottery means 252) shown in FIG. "Is obtained only once, it matches the total interval.
Here, the “guaranteed section” means an “additional section” guaranteed in advance by the player.
The “number of added games” is exemplified as the “determined section”, “total section”, and “guarantee section”.

The notification control means 331 can notify the “profit value” (value determined based on the profit value) determined by the profit value lottery means 252 when the profit value is determined by the “notification means 70”. is there. The “control value” (value determined based on the profit value) determined by the profit value lottery means 252, that is, regardless of whether or not the additional game number is acquired, the notification control means 331 each time the lottery is performed. It is also possible to notify.

In addition, the notification control unit 331 notifies the “total value” obtained by the security management unit 255 by the notification unit 70 instead of the profit value in the final game.
Here, the “profit value” means the “final profit value” determined by the final lottery of the last round.
Here, as the “notification means 70”, the image display unit 84, the effect lamp 78 and the speaker 72 shown in FIG. 3 are exemplified, and various display images are displayed on the image display unit 84 as shown in FIG. ing.

Here, “total value” means a value obtained by adding “difference value” to “final profit value”.
Specifically, the notification control means (331) notifies the number of added games determined by the lottery executed during the final round, except for the final lottery executed in the final round among a plurality of lotteries. After each notification by means 70, the total number of games after the addition of the notified number of added games is notified.
(Description of gaming state using FIG. 6)
An example of the gaming state managed on the main control means 200 side will be described with reference to FIG.

The game state roughly includes “normal state” (RT0, NOM), “RT1 state” (RT1), and “RT state” (RT2 to RT5).
First, the gaming state is described as follows from the replay probability.
(1) Replay probability = “normal” state The replay probability is set to the “normal” state because “normal state” (RT0, NOM, hereinafter also referred to as “RT0”), “RT1 state” ( RT1, hereinafter also referred to as “RT1”).

(2) Replay probability = “high probability” state The replay probability is set to the “high probability” state as “RT2” / “RT3” (ART ready gaming state in FIG. 7), “RT4” ( The first ART state in FIG. 7) and “RT5” (the second ART state in FIG. 7).
(Trigger of migration in Fig. 6)
Next, the gaming state will be described from the moment of transition.
(1) Trigger of “RT0” and “RT2” to “RT5” → “RT1” The trigger of the transition from “RT0” and “RT2” to “RT5” to “RT1” is “The first RT transition pattern” When it is displayed.

For example, in the “RT0” state, one of “AT_R1” to “AT_R4” (FIG. 12) is won, and “Bell role” is missed by “left pressing”.
Since the predetermined “first RT transition symbol” is displayed, the “first RT transition symbol” is displayed and the process proceeds to “RT1”.
(2) “RT1” and “RT3” → “RT2” Trigger The transition from “RT1” and “RT3” to “RT2” is “when the“ second RT transition symbol ”is displayed”.

For example, in the “RT1” state, any one of “RP_A1” to “RP_A4” (FIG. 11) is won, and the stop operation is performed in “specific push order i”.
“Replay H combination” (RPH1, FIG. 8) with “RT2” transition is established, “second RT transition symbol” is displayed, and transition is made to the “RT2” state.
(3) Trigger of “RT2” → “RT3” The trigger of transition from “RT2” to “RT3” is “when the“ third RT transition symbol ”is displayed”.

For example, in the “RT2” state, one of “RP_B1” to “RP_B4” (FIG. 11) is won, and a stop operation is performed in “specific push order C”.
“Replay I combination” (RPI1 to RPI6, FIG. 8) with “RT3” transition is established, “third RT transition symbol” is displayed, and transition is made to the “RT3” state.
(4) Trigger of “RT1” and “RT3” → “RT4” The trigger of transition from “RT1” and “RT3” to “RT4” is “when“ fourth RT transition symbol ”is displayed”.

For example, in the “RT3” state, one of “RP_C1” to “RP_C6” (FIG. 11) is won, and the stop operation is performed with “specific push order E”.
“Replay J combination” (RPJ1 to RPJ18, FIG. 8) with “RT4” transition is established, “fourth RT transition symbol” is displayed, and transition is made to the “RT4” state.
(5) Trigger of “RT1” to “RT3” → “RT5” The trigger of transition from “RT1” to “RT3” to “RT5” is “when“ 5th RT transition symbol ”is displayed”.

For example, in the “RT3” state, one of “RP_D1” to “RP_D6” (FIG. 11) is won, and a stop operation is performed in “specific push order”.
“Replay K combination” (RPK1 to RPK4, FIG. 8) with “RT5” transition is established, “5th RT transition symbol” is displayed, and the state transitions to the “RT5” state.
(6) Trigger of “RT1” to “RT3” → “RT0” The trigger of transition from “RT1” to “RT3” to “RT0” is “when the“ sixth RT transition symbol ”is displayed”.

For example, in the “RT2” state, one of “RP_B1” to “RP_B4” (FIG. 11) is won, and a stop operation is performed with “specific push order B”.
“Replay Q combination” (RPQ1 to RPQ4, FIG. 8) with “RT0” transition is established, “sixth RT transition symbol” is displayed, and transition is made to “RT0”.
(7) “RT0” to “RT5” → “RT0” Trigger The transition from “RT0” to “RT5” to “RT0” is “when the“ seventh RT transition symbol ”is displayed”.

For example, there is a case where one of “AT_C1” to “AT_C4” (FIG. 12) is won in the “RT2” state and a stop operation is performed by “middle push”.
“Bell D combination” (BED1 to BED4, FIG. 10) with the transition to “RT0” is established, the “seventh RT transition symbol” is displayed, and the routine proceeds to “RT0”.
(Description of gaming state using FIG. 7)
An example of a gaming state that is controlled mainly by the main control unit 200 and executed by the sub control unit 300 based on a command from the main control unit 200 will be described with reference to FIG.

The game state roughly includes “normal state” (non-AT state) and “AT state”. The “normal state” includes “normal general state”, “specialized state”, and “ART precursor state”. The “AT state” roughly includes “ART preparation game state”, “ART state”, and “addition special state” (addition special zone).
First, the gaming state includes the gaming state on the main control means 200 side (hereinafter referred to as “main side”) and the AT / non-AT on the sub control means 300 side (hereinafter referred to as “sub side”) shown in FIG. It will be described as follows from another.

(1) “Normal state”
In the “normal state”, the main side is “RT1” or “RT0”, and the sub-side is “non-AT state”.
(1-1) “Normal general state”
The “normal general state” is a general normal state that does not stay in a special state such as a precursor state or a specialized zone.
(1-2) "ART precursor state"
The “ART precursor state” is a state in which the ART state is internally won and the number of precursor games is being consumed.

Specifically, the “ART precursor state” is one of the “normal states”, is an internal winning state of the “ART state”, and is a state when a predetermined number of precursor games are consumed.
Although not shown, the “ART precursor state” is roughly divided into a “first ART precursor state” for the “first ART state” and a “second ART precursor state” for the “second ART state”.
The number of games in the “ART precursor state” is determined by a predetermined lottery game lottery when the lottery for shifting to the “ART state” is won.

(1-3) "Special special state"
The “specialized state” is a state in which an ART state consisting of a predetermined number of games (10G, 20G, 30G) can be acquired with high probability.
Specifically, the “special special state” is a self-powered high probability state (self-powered release zone) composed of “a prescribed number of games”, and the “art state lottery lottery during special state” is executed for each game.
The “specified number of games” is determined by lottery from 10G, 20G, and 30G according to the set value when entering the “specialized state” (starting game).

(2) "AT state"
(2-1) "ART preparation game state"
The “ART ready state” is a state in which the main side stays in “RT2” or “RT3” and the sub side stays in the “AT state” until the main side shifts to “RT4” or “RT5”. (Waiting for transition). For example, in order to shift from the normal state to the “first ART state” to be described later, it is necessary to go through RT4 and RT3. For example, when shifting through the ART ready state, the normal state is directly shifted to the ART state. Nothing will happen. Therefore, since the ART ready state is provided, the transition from the normal state to the ART state is prevented by chance at an unintended timing. “Coincident” includes, for example, an RT transition symbol being displayed even though the push order for displaying the RT transition symbol is not notified.

Specifically, although not shown, there are two types of “ART preparation game state”, “first ART preparation game state” and “second ART preparation game state”, which are not shown.
The “first ART ready game state” is a state (transition waiting state) until the transition to the “first ART state” (main side “RT4”), and ends when the RT4 transition trigger is established.
The “second ART preparation game state” is a state (transition waiting state) until the transition to the “second ART state” (main side “RT5”), and ends when the RT5 transition trigger is established.
(2-2) "ART state"
The “ART state” includes two “ART states” of a “first ART state” and a “second ART state”.

(2-2-1) "First ART state"
The “first ART state” is an ART state that is continuously managed with a continuation rate and a stock consisting of 50 prescribed games.
Specifically, the “first ART state” is an “AT state” when the main side stays in the “RT state” (“RT4”), and is one of two types of “ART states”. Transition.
The “first ART state” is an “ART state” fixed for 50 games, and is continuously managed with a “continuation rate” and a “stock number”.

During the “first ART state”, “stock lottery” is executed to acquire stock (upper limit: 5).
At the start of the “first ART state”, “continuous lottery” is executed at a predetermined continuation rate, and when this is won, one set (50G) of ART continues.
In the “first ART state” this time, it is assumed that there is no transition to the additional specialization zone.
(2-2-2) "Second ART state"
The “second ART state” is an ART state in which the number of games is increased by an extra lottery consisting of initial 30 games.

Specifically, the “second ART state” is an “AT state” when the main side stays in the “RT state” (“RT5”), and is one of two types of “ART states”. Migrate to
In the “second ART state”, an “additional game number lottery” is executed in accordance with the results of each game and combination lottery, and the number of additional games is acquired.
The acquired number of added games is added to the number of remaining games in the “second ART state”, and the end timing of the “second ART state” is extended.
In the “second ART state”, according to the result of each game and the role lottery, the “extended special state release lottery” is executed,
When this release lottery is won, after the number of precursor games determined by the lottery is exhausted, the state shifts to a predetermined “additional special state” (any one of the three special states).

Here, the “additional special state” that is shifted by the release lottery is “special additional special state”, “first specialization state”, “second specialization state” when entering the “second ART state”. "Lottery from among."
(2-3) “Specialized state of addition”
The “addition specialization state” includes three “addition specialization states”: “special addition specialization state”, “first addition specialization state”, and “second addition specialization state”. The “addition specialization state” is also referred to as “addition specialization zone” or “specialization zone”.

(2-3-1) "Special specialization state"
The “special added special state” is a game number added special zone that ends when the prescribed number of games are played.
Specifically, the “special addition special state” is a so-called special addition zone, and is the “first / second special addition state” in that the “addition guarantee function” according to the present invention is applied. Is different.
The “special addition special state” sets an initial value of 10G when starting the first game of the special state, performs a subtraction process for each game and one game, and ends when the remaining number of games is exhausted. .

In the “special added special state”, the “special added game number lottery” is executed in accordance with the results of each game and combination lottery, and the number of added games to be acquired is determined.
In the “special added special state”, the acquired number of added games is added to the total added game number, and when the “special added special state” ends, the total added game number is “less than 30G”. It is rewritten to add 30G ".
In the present embodiment, since the number of added games is determined by lottery (step S22 in FIG. 14), it is assumed that the number of added games is never determined in the special added special state. At this time, the same number of games as the predetermined guaranteed number of games is added (step S56 in FIG. 14), but in addition to this, a special added special state is set so that a larger number of added games can be acquired. It is extremely rare (rare case) that the number of additional games is not determined even though the extra lottery is set, so the fact that such rare cases were won, the number of guaranteed games The number of games exceeding (for example, 100G) may be added.

(2-3-2) “First specialization state”
The “first extra special state” is an extra special zone for the number of games that ends when the specific combination is established.
Specifically, the “first additional special state” is an additional special zone that is determined at the start of the “first ART state” and is started by winning in the “extra special release lottery”.
In the “first extra special state”, a “special extra game number lottery” is executed for each game in accordance with the result of the role lottery and the “game history” of the “first extra special state”. .

The “game history” is the number of consecutive winnings of a role other than a lose / replay role.
In addition, a plurality of lottery tables that define the lottery results and the number of added games are provided for each consecutive winning number.
After the start of the “first added special state”, the game ends with the establishment of the loss “HZ” or the replay role “RP” after the seventh game.
When the “first added special state” ends, if the total added game number is “40G or less”, it is rewritten as “40G” added.

The special extra game number lottery is the same as the lottery in the “special extra special state” except that the lottery table is switched according to the game history of the “first extra special state”.
(2-3-3) "Second specialization state"
The “second extra special state” is an extra special zone for the number of games to be ended by non-winning continuous lottery.
Specifically, the “second extra special state” is an extra special zone that is determined at the start of the “first ART state” and started by winning in the “extra special release lottery”.

In the “second extra special state”, “specialized state continuous lottery” and “special extra game number lottery” are executed for each game according to the result of the role lottery.
In the game where a specific combination (losing / replaying role) has been established since the start of the “second specialization state”, a special combination (losing / replaying combination) will be established. ”Is executed.
If the continuous lottery is won, the special state continues, and if the continuous lottery is not won, the “second extra special state” ends.

When the “second added special state” ends, if the total added game number is “30G or less”, it is rewritten as “30G” added.
The special added game number lottery is the same as the game number lottery in the “special added special state” except that the lottery probabilities differ according to the result of the role lottery.
The special state continuation lottery is a continuation lottery performed at a continuation rate (25%, 50%, 75%, 90%) according to the number of games required until a specific combination is formed three times. Although it will end when it is not won in the continuous lottery, it will not end in the continuous lottery until the additional number of games is acquired.
(Trigger of migration in Fig. 7)
Next, the gaming state will be described from the moment of transition.

(1) Opportunity (a)
The opportunity (a) is won in the “normal ART transfer lottery”. By the corresponding selection, the “normal general state” is shifted to the “ART precursor state”.
(2) Opportunity (b)
The opportunity (b) is to digest the number of ART precursor games. By the digestion, the state shifts from the “ART precursor state” to the “ART preparation game state”.
(3) Opportunity (c)
The opportunity (c) is won in the “specialized state transition lottery”. With this selection, the “normal general state” will shift to the “specialized state”.

(4) Opportunity (d)
The opportunity (d) is to win the “art lottery drawing during special state” and to digest the number of games in the special state. By the digestion, the state shifts from the “special special state” to the “ART preparation game state”.
(5) Opportunity (e)
The opportunity (e) is to digest the number of games in the special special state without winning the “art lottery drawing during special state”. The digestion shifts from the “special special state” to the “normal general state”.

(6) Opportunity (f)
The opportunity (f) is that the fourth RT transition symbol (“RT4” transitional role established) and the fifth RT transition symbol (“RT5” transitional role established) are displayed. From “ART ready gaming state” to “ART state” Migrate to
(7) Opportunity (g)
The opportunity (g) is won in the “specialized state release lottery”. By the corresponding selection, the state shifts from “ART state” to “additional special state”.

(8) Trigger (h)
The opportunity (h) is when a special condition for ending the added special condition (for example, digestion of the prescribed number of games) is satisfied. When the termination condition is satisfied, the state shifts from the “additional special state” to the “ART state”.
(9) Opportunity (i)
The opportunity (i) is when the number of remaining games in the ART state becomes 0 and the winning lottery is not won. When the winning is not made, the state shifts from “ART state” to “normal state”.
(Explanation of an example of the structure of the combination using FIGS. 8 to 10)
An example of the configuration of the combination will be described with reference to FIGS.

The composition of roles is roughly divided as follows.
(1) "Re-playing role" (Figure 8)
As shown in FIG. 8, the “replay combination” is composed of a total of 17 types of “replay A combination” to “replay Q combination”.
(2) “Bell” (Figure 10)
As shown in FIG. 10, the “bell role” is composed of a total of four types of “bell A role” to “bell D role”.

(3) “Cherry” (Figure 9)
As shown in FIG. 9, the “cherry role” is composed of a total of eight types of “cherry A role” to “cherry H role”.
(4) "Watermelon role" (Figure 9)
As shown in FIG. 9, the “watermelon combination” is composed of one type.
(5) “Chance” (Figure 9)
As shown in FIG. 9, the “chance combination” is composed of two types of “chance A combination” to “chance B combination”.

(6) "Special chance role" (Figure 10)
As shown in FIG. 9, the “special chance combination” is composed of a total of 12 types of “special chance combination A” to “special opportunity combination B”.
For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the replay role “replay J role” is “first replay J role” (RPIJ), “second replay J role” (“RPJ2”). There are 18 replay J roles ("RPJ18").
That is, “Replay J combination” is a generic name of 18 “Replay J combinations” and is a name indicating the whole.
(Explanation of an example of lottery object / lottery result of role lottery using FIGS. 11 and 12)
An example of the lottery object / lottery result of the role lottery will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12.

The lottery for the role lottery is as follows.
(1) Double winning between replays (Figure 11)
As shown in FIG. 11, the re-winning winnings between replays include “push order replays A to E”, “special replays”, “confirmed replays”, “red 7 replays”, “white 7 replays”, “normal replays”. There is.
(2) Duplicate winnings between Bells (Figure 12)
As shown in FIG. 12, there are “push order bell L” (1 piece), “push order bell C” (4 pieces), and “push order bell R” (4 pieces). .

(3) Duplicate winning combination of Bell and Special Chance (Figure 12)
As shown in FIG. 12, there are “rare bells” (two) as the winning combination of the bell role and the special chance role.
(4) Single selection of watermelon (Figure 12)
As a single winning combination of watermelon, there is a “watermelon role” (1 piece) as shown in FIG.
(5) The winning combination of Cherry and Special Chance (Figure 12)
As shown in FIG. 12, there are “chance eyes” (2) and “strong cherry's“ CH_03 ”” (1) as the winning combination of the cherry role and the special chance role.

(6) Overlapping wins between cherry roles (Figure 12)
As shown in FIG. 12, there are “weak cherry” (1) and “strong cherry“ CH_02 ”” (1) as overlapping winnings between cherry roles.
(7) Duplicate winning combination of Bell and Special Chance (Figure 12)
As shown in FIG. 12, the winning combination of the bell role and the special chance role is “special chance eye A” (2), “special chance eye B” (2), “special chance eye” (2). )
(8) Loss (1) (Figure 12)
For example, in the lottery, among the lottery results that are re-winning among re-game players, “Push Order Replay A” includes “First Push Order Replay A” (“RP_A1”), “Second Push Order Replay A”. ”(“ RP_A2 ”),“ third push order replay A ”(“ RP_A3 ”), and among these, when“ second push order replay A (RP_A2) ”is won, the following (a ) To (d), the winning combination is duplicated.

(A) "Replay A role (first to second replay A roles: RPA1 to RPA2)"
(B) “Replay H role (first replay H role: RPH1)”
(C) “Replay Q role (first to fourth replay Q roles: RPQ1 to RPQ4)”
(D) “First Replay E Role (RPE1)”
Then, when the stop operation is performed in “specific push order i”, “RPH1” that is “replay H combination” is established, and when stop operation is performed in “specific push order B”, “replay Q combination” is performed. If any one of “RPQ1” to “RPQ4” is established and the stop operation is performed in an order other than “specific push order i-ro”, which one of “RPA1” and “RPA2” that is “replay A role” Is true.

The “first push order replay A” (“RP_A1”) is drawn only in the “RT1 state”, and the “replay H combination” is displayed as “RT2 transition combination” (“second RT transition symbol” is displayed). Therefore, when the stop operation is performed in “push order i”, the state shifts to “RT2 state”, and “replay Q combination” is “RT0 transition combination” (“sixth RT transition symbol” is displayed). When the stop operation is performed with “B”, the state shifts to “RT1 state”, and “Replay A role” does not involve RT fluctuation. Become.
(Description of an example of the general flow of the game using FIG. 13)
Game control processing executed by the main control means 200 for each game will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.

  First, in step S10, a betting number setting process is performed. In this betting number setting process, it is determined whether or not a prescribed betting number is set as the betting number. Specifically, the main control means 200 determines whether or not the number of medals set as the number of bets on the game has reached a specified number of bets. In the present embodiment, the prescribed bet number is two or three. For this reason, when a predetermined number of bets is set, the process proceeds to the next step S11. If the predetermined number of bets is not set, the process stays at step S10.

In step S11, the main control means 200 determines whether or not the start switch 40 has been operated. Here, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has been operated, the main control means 200 makes it impossible to set the number of bets. Thereafter, the process proceeds to next Step S12. On the other hand, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has not been operated, the process returns to step S11.
In step S12, the role lottery means 210 performs a role lottery process. At this time, the result of the winning lottery is transmitted from the main control means 200 to the sub-control means 300. When the combination lottery process ends, the process proceeds to the next step S13.

  In step S13, rotation variation processing of the reel 62 in the reel unit 60 is performed. After the reel 62 reaches a predetermined rotation speed, when the main control means 200 operates the stop switch 50 corresponding to the rotating reel 62, the reel control means 220 stops the rotation of each reel 62. Be made. The stop operation order corresponding to the winning combination of the stop switch 50 (left stop switch L, middle stop switch C, right stop switch R) at this time is stored in a predetermined storage area formed in the main control means 200. Then, it is read out in the subsequent processing. Here, when the stop operation of the third stop switch 50 is performed, the rotation stop information of all the reels 62 is transmitted from the main control means 200 to the sub control means 300. When the rotation variation process for all the reels 62 is completed, the process proceeds to the next step S14.

In step S14, the hopper control means 260 performs a payout process corresponding to the symbol stop mode. In the case where payout is not required, payout processing is not performed. Then, the process ends.
(Description of an example of the processing flow of the AT state in the second ART state using FIGS. 14 and 15)
Next, an example of the processing flow of the AT state in the second ART state will be described with reference to FIGS. 14 and 15.
First, as shown in FIG. 14, the process proceeds to step S20, and the AT remaining game number at the start of the AT state of the second ART state (hereinafter, “game number” is also referred to as “G number”), that is, as an initial set value “ 50G "is set. This setting is executed by the advantageous game control means 250 shown in FIGS.

After the end of step S20, the process proceeds to the next step S21, and it is determined whether or not the “special addition special state” shown in FIG. The “special addition special state” is a state in which the security function of the present invention is installed, and does not shift from the first ART state, but shifts from the second ART state. This determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.
As a result of the above determination, if the “special extra special state” is in progress, the process proceeds from step S21 to the next step S22, and the lottery processing in the “special extra special state (determination of the extra G number by the extra lottery)” Executed. The lottery process is executed by the profit value lottery means 252 shown in FIG.

In the “special extra lottery process” in step S22, an extra lottery process for lottering a predetermined extra game number is executed, and the “addition game number” determined in the process is later added to the total extra G number. It is the number of additional games to be added (steps S52 and S55 shown in FIG. 15), and when comparing with the guaranteed G number (step S51) or obtaining a difference from the guaranteed G number (step S56) ) Is the number of extra games used.
After the lottery process, the process proceeds from step S22 to the next step S23, and the “number of remaining G” in the “special addition specialization state” is updated. As the update, the count value of “number of remaining G” is subtracted by “1” G for each game. The subtraction is executed by the advantageous game control means 250. The “remaining G number” is set to “10G” as an initial setting value in step S31 described later.

After the update, the process proceeds to the flowchart shown in FIG.
On the other hand, if the determination result in step S21 described above is not in the “special addition special state”, the process branches and proceeds to the next step S30. In step S30, it is determined whether or not the state is the transition to the “special added special state”. This determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.
Whether or not to shift to the special addition special state is determined based on the specialization state release lottery executed as part of the “lottery process during the AT state” in step S40 described later (paragraph “0119 described above). ]). In the above-described “lottery process during AT state” in step S40, it is determined whether or not to shift to the special added special state, the first added special state, or the second added special state. "Is executed (see paragraph" 0119 "). When it is determined to shift to the special addition special state in this “extra specialization state release lottery”, information indicating that is stored (special addition special state transition flag is set to “ON”) Later, it is used to determine whether or not it is time to shift to the special addition special state (step S30). In addition, when the transition to the first additional special state or the second additional special state is determined by the extra special state release lottery, the processing is performed with the contents shown in the paragraphs “0122” to “0124” described above. Done.

As a result of the above determination, in the case of transition to the “special additional special state”, the process proceeds from step S30 to the next step S31, and the “special additional special state” “remaining G number” is set to “10G”. To do. The setting is executed by the advantageous game control means 250.
After the above setting, the process proceeds from step S31 to the next step S32, and the “guarantee G number” in the “special added specialization state” is set to “30G”. The “guarantee G number” is stored in the guarantee value storage means 254 shown in FIG. 5, and the setting is executed by the advantageous game control means 250.
After the above setting, the process proceeds from step S32 to step S22 described above, and the “special added special state” is started.

On the other hand, if the determination result in step S30 described above is not the time of transition to the “special addition special state”, the process branches and proceeds to step S40. In step S40, a lottery process is executed during the “AT state”, that is, during the “ART state” shown in FIG. As the lottery process, an extra lottery or special zone shift determination is performed. The lottery and determination are executed by the advantageous game control means 250.
After the lottery process, the process proceeds from step S40 to the next step S41, where “AT remaining G number” is updated. As the update, the count value of “AT remaining G number” is subtracted by “1” G for each game. The subtraction is executed by the advantageous game control means 250. The “AT remaining G number” is set to “50 G” as an initial setting value in step S20 described above.

After the above update, the process proceeds from step S41 to the next step S42, where it is determined whether or not the “AT remaining G number” is “0” G. This determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.
As a result of the determination, if the “AT remaining G number” is “0” G, the “AT state” is terminated.
On the other hand, if the determination result in step S42 indicates that the “AT remaining G number” is not “0” G, that is, if the “AT remaining G number” remains, the process proceeds to the flowchart shown in FIG.
(Description of the flowchart following FIG. 14 using FIG. 15)
Following step S23 shown in FIG. 14, the process proceeds to step S50 shown in FIG. 15, and it is determined whether or not the “number of remaining G” in the “special added specialization state” is “0” G. This determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.

  As a result of the determination, if the “remaining G number” is “0” G (that is, in the final game in the special addition special state), the process proceeds from step S50 to the next step S51. In step S51, it is determined whether “(total added G number + added G number) <guaranteed G number”, ie, “total added G number + added G number)” exceeds “guaranteed G number”. The The “additional G number” is executed in the “special addition specialization state”, with the result of the role lottery of each game as a trigger, and a predetermined additional G number lottery is executed (step S22 shown in FIG. 14). This is a numerical value obtained by cumulatively adding the “additional G number” determined in (1). The “guarantee G number” is set to “30G” in step S32 described above with reference to FIG. This determination is made by the security management means 255 shown in FIG.

As a result of the above determination, when “addition G number + addition G number)” is not smaller than “guaranteed G number” (30G), that is, “addition G number + addition G number)” becomes “guarantee G number” (30G). In the case where the number is higher, or when “the number of additional G + the number of additional G)” and “the number of guaranteed G” (30 G) are equal, the process proceeds from step S51 to the next step S52. In step S52, the “addition G number” is added to the “total addition G number”. The addition is executed by the total value calculation means 253 shown in FIG.
After the above addition, the process proceeds from step S52 to the next step S53, where “total added G number” is added to “AT remaining G number”. As a result, the “AT remaining G number” increases. At this time, an “additional G number” exceeding “30G” which is the set number of “guaranteed G number” is obtained. The addition is executed by the security management means 255.

After the addition, the process proceeds from step S53 to the next step S54, and the “special addition specialization state” is terminated.
After the above, the process proceeds to the next AT game, proceeds to step S20 described above shown in FIG. 14, and proceeds to the subsequent “AT state” using the “AT remaining G number” acquired in the previous step S53. it can.
On the other hand, if the “remaining G number” is not “0” G, that is, if the “remaining G number” remains, the process branches and proceeds to step S55. In step S55, the “additional G number” determined in the additional G number lottery (step S22 shown in FIG. 14) is added to the “total additional G number in the specialized zone”. The addition is executed by the total value calculation means 253.

After the addition, the process proceeds to the step S20 described above shown in FIG.
On the other hand, when the determination result of the previous step S51 is “(total added G number + added G number) <guaranteed G number”, that is, “total added G number + added G number” is “guaranteed G number” (30G). If smaller or lower, the process branches and proceeds to step S56.
In step S56, the difference between “total added G number + added G number” and “guaranteed G number” (30G) is added to “added G number”. The addition is executed by the security management means 255. This process is the “guarantee process” in the present invention, and “30G” which is the set number of “guaranteed G number” even when “total added G number + added G number” is less than “guaranteed G number”. You can get “Additional G number”.

  For example, when the total G number at the end of 9G is “20G”, when “7G” is acquired as the additional G number in the final game (10G) (step S22), (20G + 7G) and the guaranteed G number ( 30G) (step S51). If the guaranteed G number is not reached, “30G− (20G + 7G) = 3G” is calculated as a difference, the difference “3G” is added and added to the G number “7G”, and the added G number is set to “7G To “10G” (step S56). Thereafter, the G number “10G” is added to the total G number “20G” at that time (step S52), and the total G number is set to “30G” (= guaranteed G number (guaranteed value)).

In the present embodiment, since the series of G numbers is determined by the main control means 200, the added G number (10G) obtained by adding the difference “3G” in step S56 is the image display unit 84 ( The information is transmitted to the sub-control means 300 for display by the notification means). Similarly, in step S52, the total added G number (20G) to which the added G number (10G) is added is transmitted to the sub-control means 300.
Further, as shown in step S51 and step S56 in FIG. 15, a process of comparing the total number of added games determined during the special addition special state with a predetermined number of guaranteed games, and the total number of added games becomes the number of guaranteed games. If not reached, the process of adding the total number of added games so as to reach the number of guaranteed games and the process of both or the latter will also be referred to as “guaranteed process” below.

After the addition, the process proceeds from step S56 to step S52 described above.
(Description of an example of an additional acquisition pattern using FIGS. 16 to 21)
An example of the additional acquisition pattern will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, Example 1 of the additional acquisition pattern will be described with reference to FIGS. 16 and 17.
When the second ART lottery is won during the “normal general state” shown in FIG. 7, the state shifts to the “second ART state” (initial “50G”) via the “ART precursor”.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 17A, for example, the characters “RUSH!” Are displayed on the image display unit 84 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 to notify the start of the “second ART state”. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 17B, for example, a character “number of remaining G: 49G” is displayed to notify the remaining number of games of the second ART game.

Further, during the “second ART state”, as shown in (C) of FIG. 17, for example, a character “G number remaining: 39G” is displayed, and the remaining number of games of the second ART game at that time (game) is displayed. Inform.
As the “second ART state” progresses, it is assumed that the transition condition to the “special added special state” shown in FIG.
When the “special addition specialization state” is entered, as shown in FIG. 17D, for example, the characters “ZONE rush!” Are displayed to notify that effect.

While proceeding with the “special addition specialization state”, when the addition G number (5G) is acquired in the 2G, as shown in (E) of FIG. 17, for example, the characters “+ 5G!” Are displayed. Notify that.
While proceeding to the “special addition specialization state”, when the additional G number (15G) is obtained at the 6th G, as shown in (F) of FIG. 17, for example, the characters “+ 15G!” Are displayed. Notify that.
When the G number (7G) is acquired in the last G (10G) of the “special addition specialization state”, as shown in (G) in FIG. 17, for example, a character “+ 10G!” Is displayed and added. The number of G (10G) is notified.

The added G number notified at the 10th G is not the acquired added G number (7G), but the added G number (10G) obtained by adding the difference (3G) between the “guaranteed G number” and the “total added G number”. It has become.
As a result, the “total added G number” based on the “special added special state” is “30 G”, which is notified. After that, as shown in FIG. 17H, for example, a character “Total: + 30G” is displayed, and the total number of added G obtained in the “special added special state” is notified.

When the last G (10th G) of the “special added special state” is completed, the process proceeds to 11G of the “second ART state”, and as shown in (I) of FIG. 17, for example, “the number of remaining G: 69 G”. Characters are displayed, and the remaining number of games of the second ART game at that time (game) is notified.
In the “second ART state” returned from the “special added special state”, the number of ART games increases from “50G → 80G”.
The total additional G number up to 9G is “20G”.
The acquired G number (before the G number determination) at the 10G is “7G”.

The relationship of “total added G number <guaranteed G number”, that is, “total added G number” (20G + 7G) is lower than “guaranteed G number” (30G) (20G + 7G <30G).
The difference G number is obtained by the following equation.
Difference G number = 30− (20 + 7) = 3G
The number of acquired Gs at the 10th G (after G number determination) is “10G” (G number obtained by adding “3G” of “difference G number” to “7G” of acquired G number (before G number determination) ).
As a result, the added G number at the end of the “special added special state” is “30G”. For this reason, the total number of games in the “second ART state” is “80G” obtained by adding “30G” as an additional G number to the initial “50G”.

In FIG. 18 to FIG. 20, there are two types of squares described beside the “additional lottery result”: a square described by “solid line” and a square described by “dotted line”. The square described in “solid line” means that the additional lottery execution condition is satisfied and the additional lottery is executed, and the numerical value described in the square is the acquired “additional G number”. A square indicated by a dotted line means a case where no extra lottery is executed.
(Explanation of Example 2 of Additional Acquisition Pattern Using FIG. 18)
With reference to FIG. 18, Example 2 of the additional acquisition pattern will be described.

This figure shows that the extra lottery is executed when the conditions for executing the special extra lottery are satisfied, instead of executing the extra lottery for each game in the “special extra special state”. This is an example in which a lottery was executed and 7G was acquired, but the additional guaranteed G number was not reached.
That is, the acquired G number (before the G number determination) at the final G, that is, the 10th G is “7G”.
The relationship of “total added G number <guaranteed G number”, that is, “total added G number” (20G + 7G) is lower than “guaranteed G number” (30G) (20G + 7G <30G).

The difference G number is obtained by the following equation.
Difference G number = 30− (20 + 7) = 3G
The number of acquired Gs at the 10th G (after G number determination) is “10G” (G number obtained by adding “3G” of “difference G number” to “7G” of acquired G number (before G number determination) ).
As a result, the added G number at the end of the “special added special state” is “30G”.
(Description of the example 3 of the additional acquisition pattern using FIG. 19)
With reference to FIG. 19, Example 3 of the additional acquisition pattern will be described.

This figure shows that the extra lottery is executed when the conditions for executing the special extra lottery are satisfied, instead of executing the extra lottery for each game in the “special extra special state”. This is an example in which the lottery is not executed, and the final G acquired G number is “10G”.
That is, the final G, that is, the number of acquired Gs up to the 10th G (before the G number determination) is “20G” (20G + 0G).
The relationship of “total additional G number <guaranteed G number”, that is, “total additional G number” (20G + 0G) is lower than “addition guaranteed G number” (30G) (20G + 0G <30G).

The difference G number is obtained by the following equation.
Difference G number = 30− (20 + 0) = 10G
The acquired G number at the 10th G (after the G number determination) is “10G” (G number obtained by adding “10G” of the “difference G number” to “0G” of the acquired G number (before the G number determination) ).
As a result, the added G number at the end of the “special added special state” is “30G”.
(Description of Example 4 of Additional Acquisition Pattern Using FIG. 20)
With reference to FIG. 20, Example 4 of the additional acquisition pattern will be described.

This figure does not execute an extra lottery for each game in the `` special extra special state '', but executes an extra lottery when a condition for executing a specific extra lottery is satisfied. In this example, the “guaranteed G number” is reached in the middle of the “realized state”, and the “additional G number” exceeding the “guaranteed G number” is added.
The total additional G number up to 9G is “35G” (5G + 5G + 15G + 10G = 35G).
The acquired G number (before the G number determination) at the 10G is “7G”.

The relationship of “total added G number <guarantee G number”, ie, “total added G number” (35G) exceeds “addition guaranteed G number” (30G) (35G <30G).
For this reason, the acquired G number at the 10Gth (after the G number determination) is “7G”, and the guarantee function is not executed.
As a result, the added G number at the end of the “special added special state” is “42G” which exceeds the “guarantee G number”.
(Description of Example 5 of Additional Acquisition Pattern Using FIG. 21)
Example 5 which is an example of the extra acquisition pattern will be described with reference to FIG.

The figure shows an example in which an extra lottery is executed in each game in the “special extra special state”, and 7G was won in the final G, but the guaranteed G number was not reached.
That is, the acquired G number (before the G number determination) at the final G, that is, the 10th G is “7G”.
The relationship of “total added G number <guaranteed G number”, that is, “total added G number” (20G + 7G) is lower than “guaranteed G number” (30G) (20G + 7G <30G).
The difference G number is obtained by the following equation.

Difference G number = 30− (20 + 7) = 3G
The number of acquired Gs at the 10th G (after G number determination) is “10G” (G number obtained by adding “3G” of “difference G number” to “7G” of acquired G number (before G number determination) ).
As a result, the added G number at the end of the “special added special state” is “30G”.
(Additional lottery probability is fixed and guaranteed)
A description will be given of the process of stabilizing the extra lottery probability and the guarantee process.
When the extra lottery probability is made constant, a security process is finally required.

The “stabilization of the extra lottery probability” by “the lottery method of the present invention” will be described in comparison with “the conventional lottery method”.
(Comparison of standardized lottery probability and conventional lottery method 1)
(1) Explanation Using Calculation Formula For example, in the case of lottery A that is won with a probability of 80%, the expected value of the number of times that lottery A is continuously won (number of consecutive resorts) is five.
(Calculation Formula 1) 1 ÷ (1-80%) = 1 ÷ (1-0.8) = 5
For example, in the case of lottery B that wins with a probability of 90%, the expected value of the number of times that lottery B continues to win (number of consecutive resorts) is “10 times”.

(Calculation formula 2) 1 / (1-90%) = 1 / (1-0.9) = 10
(2) Explanation from the concept of probability For example, in the case of lottery A that wins with a probability of 80%, because “80% = 80/100 = 4/5”, if lottery A is executed five times, it is won four times. There is a high possibility, in other words, there is a high possibility of being not elected once in 5 times.
Therefore, since lottery A is repeatedly executed and it is highly likely that a lottery will not be won for the first time in the fifth lottery (five times can be lottery), the expected value of the number of times that lottery A continues to win (number of consecutive resorts) is “ 5 times ".

For example, in the case of lottery B that wins with a probability of 90%, because “90% = 90/100 = 9/10”, if lottery B is executed 10 times, there is a high possibility of winning 9 times, in other words, There is a high probability of being unwinned once in 10 times.
Therefore, since lottery B is repeatedly executed and it is highly likely that the tenth lottery will not win for the first time (10 lotteries can be drawn), the expected value of the number of times that lottery B continues to win (number of consecutive resorts) is “ 10 times ".
(3) Explanation based on the above (1) or (2) For example, when realizing a lottery with an expected value of 10 winning on average, in the “conventional lottery method”, the guaranteed number = 5 was first given. Thereafter, the lottery is repeatedly executed with a probability of 80% (80% loop).

The expected value in the “conventional lottery method” is the sum of “5” obtained by adding “5” (1 ÷ (1-80%)) acquired in the 80% loop to the first “5”, It becomes.
In the “lottery system of the present invention”, lottery is repeatedly executed with a probability of 90% without giving a guaranteed number (0) (90% loop).
The expected value in this lottery method is “10” (1 ÷ (1-90%)) acquired in the 90% loop.
In other words, even in the lottery that realizes the expected value “10”, the realization method (concept) differs between the conventional and the present invention.

(4) Impact on upside / downside However, the average number of people who can expect to win is the same as that of the present invention. However, in general, depending on the chance of lottery (trial), the average Below (upward) or above average (upward).
Here, in the present invention, a lottery with a higher expected value than the “conventional lottery method” (5 times <10 times) is executed. , A larger number can be obtained (increase when swung up).

On the other hand, in the present invention, when the average is less than 10 (= guaranteed value), it is forcibly rewritten to 10 so that the average expected value can be ensured even when a downturn occurs.
(Comparison of fixed lottery probability and conventional lottery method 2)
(1) Explanation in another way of thinking The parts of (1) and (2) in the comparison 1 are explained in another way as follows.
(2) Explanation based on the concept of the conventional lottery method For example, the extra game section is “10 games”, and the lottery value (winning probability) in each game in this section is as follows.

1G-4G: 1/1
5G-10: 1/6
At this time, when the number of games that can be acquired when winning one extra lottery is “1 game”, the expected value of the total number of additional games to be acquired at the time when all the additional game sections are completed is as follows: It is.
(Calculation Formula 3) (1/1) × 4 + (1/6) × 6 = 4 + 1 = 5 games In other words, the number of guaranteed games is “4 games”, and the expected value of the total number of added games in the added game section is “5 games”.

(3) Explanation based on the concept of the lottery method of the present invention For example, the extra game section is “10 games”, and the lottery value (winning probability) in each game in this section is as follows.
1G-10G: 1/2
At this time, when the number of games that can be acquired when winning one extra lottery is “1 game”, the expected value of the total number of additional games to be acquired at the time when all the additional game sections are completed is as follows: It is.

(Calculation Formula 4) (1/2) × 10 = 5 Games That is, there is no guaranteed game number (0 game), but the expected value of the total number of added games in the added game section is “5 games”.
(4) Comparison between the conventional lottery method and the lottery method of the present invention As described in (2) above, the idea of first passing 4 games in 1G to 4G is the idea of the “conventional lottery method”.
The idea of “the lottery method of the present invention” is that the lottery is performed at a high winning probability without passing the number of guaranteed games first, as in (3) above.

Of course, in the case of the “lottery method of the present invention”, the number of games cannot be guaranteed as it is, and when the extra lottery of the 10G is finished, if the number of guaranteed games has not been reached, the number of guaranteed games is rewritten (4 games). Is.
(Second Embodiment Using FIGS. 22 and 23)
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
The feature of the present embodiment is that the profit value lottery means 252 has a characteristic of lottery of profit values.
(Details of profit value lottery means using FIG. 22)
Details of the profit value lottery means will be described with reference to FIG.

Another embodiment of the profit value lottery means 252 of the main control means 200 shown in FIG. 3 will be described. The profit value lottery means 252 includes the following means as shown in FIG.
The means of the profit value lottery means 252 is not limited to the following (1) to (5).
(1) Standard value lottery means 400
The reference value lottery means 400 determines a “reference value” constituting the profit value by lottery.
Here, the “reference value” is a “value” constituting the profit value, and corresponds to the “reference game number” shown in FIG.

In addition, although the “reference game number” is exemplified as the “reference value”, the present invention is not limited to this, and a set number, a point number, or the like may be used.
(2) Continuous lottery means 410
The continuous lottery means 410 can execute the continuous lottery for increasing the “reference value” and repeat the continuous lottery on the condition that the continuous lottery is won.
The continuous lottery means 410 is capable of executing a continuous lottery that determines whether or not the winning is made at a predetermined continuation rate.

(3) Continuation rate lottery means 420
The continuation rate lottery means 420 determines the continuation rate of the continuous lottery by lottery before the continuous lottery by the continuous lottery means 410 is repeatedly executed.
(4) Counting means 430
The counting means 430 can count the number of continuous lotteries repeated by the continuous lottery means 410.
(5) Profit value calculation means 440
The profit value calculation means 440 is out of the continuous lottery, and after the repetition of the continuous lottery, the “multiplier value” obtained by multiplying the reference value determined by the reference value lottery means 400 and the “count value” of the count means 430 is obtained. Is calculated. As a result, the profit value lottery means 252 determines the “multiplication value” calculated by the profit value calculation means 440 as the “profit value”.

Here, the “count value” means the number of counts by the counting means 430, that is, the number of repetitions of the continuous lottery by the continuous lottery means 410, and corresponds to the “doubling number” shown in FIG.
Here, the “multiplication value” is calculated by the formula “reference value × count value”, but is not limited thereto, and may be calculated by the formula “count value × reference value”. The “profit value” is also “reference value × count value → profit value”, but is not limited thereto, and may be “count value × reference value → profit value”.
(Description of an example of the flow of the special extra game number lottery using FIG. 23)
With reference to FIG. 23, an example of the flow of the special extra game number lottery will be described.

The “special added game number lottery” is a lottery for determining the “additional game number” that is executed for each game in the “special added state” and is added to the “first ART state”.
The “special extra game number lottery” (FIG. 23) according to the second embodiment is executed in the “special extra special lottery process” (step S22 shown in FIG. 14) in the first embodiment. It corresponds to the number-of-games lottery. Then, the added game number (step S67) determined by the special added game number lottery is added to the total added G number, or the comparison with the guaranteed G number or a difference is calculated, as in the first embodiment. Used in scenes.

The number of additional games is determined using the three-stage lottery results as follows.
(1) The reference game number lottery is a lottery for determining one value from a plurality of values (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100, 200, 300) indicating the number of games. The value determined by the reference game number lottery is determined as the reference game number (step S61).
(2) The continuation rate lottery is a lottery for determining one value from a plurality of values (0%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%) indicating the continuation rate applied to the continuous lottery in step S63. Thus, the value determined by the continuation rate lottery is determined as the continuation rate of the continuous lottery (step S62).

(3) The number of times of doubling at the continuation rate lottered in (2) above is determined by lottery (doubling number lottery) (upper limit of 30 times, steps S63 to S66).
(4) The result of (3) above (number of times of doubling) is added to the result of (1) (number of times of reference game) (number of times of doubling) (“reference number of games” × “number of times of doubling”) (S67) .
Here, the “reference game number lottery” determines the reference game number from nine types with a probability set according to the role lottery result.
“Continuation rate lottery” determines the continuation rate from among five types with a probability set according to the combination lottery result.

In “doubling number lottery”, the number of doublings is determined by loop lottery (continuing for a maximum of 30 times) using the continuation rate determined in the continuation rate lottery.
For example, when the reference game number = 10G and the doubling number (continuous winning number) = 4, the added game number is “40G” (“added game number” = 10G × 4 times = 40G).
(Third embodiment using FIG. 24)
A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This figure is an explanatory diagram of an example of the initial game number lottery flow.

The feature of this embodiment is that the “guarantee processing” of the present invention is used for determining the initial number of games.
In other words, if the ART lottery is won during the “normal general state” shown in FIG. 7, the state shifts to the “ART state” via the “ART precursor”. At this time, the initial number of games in the “ART state” is the initial game number. Determined by several lotteries.
First, proceeding to step S70, it is determined whether the start lever (start switch 40) has been operated. This determination is made by the advantageous game control means 250 shown in FIG.

As a result of the above determination, if the start lever (start switch 40) is operated, the process proceeds from step S70 to the next step S71, where “basic game number lottery” is executed and “basic game number” (for example, 0) 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50G). The lottery is executed by the advantageous game control means 250.
After the lottery, the process proceeds from step S71 to the next step S72, and the “number of basic games” by the lottery is added to the “total number of games”. “Total number of games” is a cumulative addition of “number of basic games” by lottery. The addition is executed by the advantageous game control means 250.

After the addition, the process proceeds from step S72 to the next step S73, and “continuous lottery” is executed. The lottery is executed by the advantageous game control means 250.
After the lottery, the process proceeds from step S73 to the next step S74, and it is determined whether or not “continuous lottery” is not won. This determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.
As a result of the determination, if the “continuous lottery” is not unwinned, that is, if it is won, the process proceeds to step S71 as described above, and the “basic game number lottery” is executed again.
On the other hand, as a result of the above determination, if “continuous lottery” is not won, the process proceeds from step S74 to the next step S75, where “total game number <guaranteed game number”, ie, “total game number” is “guaranteed game”. It is determined whether or not the number is below (for example, 50G). The “guaranteed game number” means an “initial game number” that is set in advance and guaranteed by the player. This determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.

As a result of the determination, if the “total number of games” is less than the “guaranteed game number”, the process proceeds from step S75 to the next step S76, and the difference between the “total game number” and the “guaranteed game number” (games) Number) (difference (number of games) = “number of guaranteed games” − “total number of games”). The calculation is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.
After the above calculation, the process proceeds from step S76 to the next step S77, and the calculated difference (number of games) is added to the “total number of games” (“total number of games” (after guarantee) = difference (number of games) + “total” Number of games "). The addition is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.

Steps S75 and S76 are the “guarantee function” in the initial game number lottery.
After the above addition, the process proceeds from step S77 to the next step S78, where “total number of games” is set to “initial number of games” and the initial game number lottery process is terminated. The calculation is performed by the advantageous game control means 250.
On the other hand, if the determination result of the previous step S70 is that the start lever (start switch 40) has not been operated, the initial game number lottery process is terminated.

In addition, when the determination result of the previous step S75 is not “total game number <guaranteed game number”, that is, when “total game number” is equal to “guaranteed game number”, or “total game number” is “guaranteed game”. If the number exceeds “number”, the process proceeds to step S78 without performing the “guarantee process” (steps S75 and S76), and sets the “total number of games” to the “initial number of games”.
As a result, an “initial game number” exceeding the “guaranteed game number” may be obtained.
(Variation A of addition acquisition pattern)
Next, modifications A to G of the addition acquisition pattern will be described.

First, in Examples 1 to 5 described with reference to FIGS. 16 to 21 (hereinafter referred to as “the example described above”), the ART state lottery is selected and the state is shifted to the ART state. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can also be applied to the gameability of shifting to the ART state on condition that the total of points acquired by a predetermined point acquisition lottery reaches a predetermined target point.
Specifically, in the normal general state, a point acquisition lottery is executed in accordance with the result and set value of each game, and the points acquired in the lottery are accumulated as total points. On the other hand, in the normal state, a special special state (30G special high-accuracy zone) where points can be easily obtained as compared with the normal general state is provided, and a transition to this special state is made by winning a predetermined lottery. Let Then, by proceeding with the normal game, points are successively acquired, and by shifting to the special special state, a large number of points are acquired, and the game performance becomes close to the specified target point (100 Pt).

At this time, in the special special state, although a point acquisition lottery that is more advantageous than the normal general state is executed, there are cases where the points as expected cannot be acquired. Therefore, when the special specialization state ends, a predetermined guarantee process is executed by comparing the accumulated points acquired during the special specialization state with the prescribed guarantee point (30 Pt). As a result, a guarantee point is set for the special special state, and when entering the special special state, it is always possible to obtain points equal to or greater than the guarantee point.
(Variation B of additional acquisition pattern)
In the example described above, a prescribed number of guaranteed games is set for the added special state in which the length of the section is fixed in advance. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention is applicable to a state where the length of the section is not fixed in advance and may end at an arbitrary timing, such as an ART preparation state for shifting to the ART state. It is.

  Specifically, in the second ART ready state, according to the result of each game, the number of added games is determined, and the total number of added games acquired in each game (total number of added games) is calculated. deep. If the 5th RT transition symbol is displayed and the transition condition to RT5 is satisfied and the next game is shifted to the 2nd ART state, the total number of games added up to that point and the guarantee of the provisions will be made at this timing. A predetermined guarantee process is executed against the number of games. As a result, even if the period of the ART preparation state is short and the RT transition condition is satisfied early, it is possible to obtain an additional number of games more than the guaranteed number of games.

The added game number acquired in the ART ready state may be added to the ART initial game number from the beginning to start the ART state, or may be added in the middle of the ART state.
(Modification C of the additional acquisition pattern)
In the example described above, in the specialization state of 10 games, the number of additional games acquired for each game, that is, the number of 10 additional games acquired by 10 star lever operations (trigger) The specified number of guaranteed games. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, it is possible to set a prescribed number of guaranteed games with respect to the number of additional games acquired by one start lever operation (trigger).

For example, it is assumed that the initial number of games in the ART state is determined in response to a start lever operation for starting the first game in the ART state. In this case, as shown in FIG. 24, the total number of games is calculated by executing a loop lottery at a specified continuation rate, the calculated total number of games is compared with the specified number of guaranteed games, and a predetermined security process is performed. Run. As a result, it is possible to set a prescribed guaranteed number of games with respect to the total number of games acquired by one start operation, that is, the initial number of games in the ART state.
(Variation D of additional acquisition pattern)
In the example described above, a prescribed number of guaranteed games is set for an additional special state (a certain period) of 10 games. Therefore, the number of added games acquired within a certain period is targeted, and there is a possibility that a game in which the added game number lottery is not executed is included in the period. It is also possible to set a prescribed number of guaranteed games for a certain number of extra game lotteries instead of such a fixed period.

Specifically, it is assumed that in the ART state, a chance (right) to execute the extra game number lottery 10 times is acquired. At this time, whenever a chance is executed, an extra game number lottery is executed. In this 10 extra game lottery, chances may be used 10 times in succession, or 10 chances may be used apart over a certain period. However, when the tenth chance is used, a predetermined guarantee process is executed by comparing the total number of games so far with the prescribed guarantee game number. As a result, it becomes possible to set a prescribed number of guaranteed games with respect to the number of additional games acquired by the extra game number lottery.
(Variation E of the additional acquisition pattern)
In the example described above, a prescribed number of guaranteed games is set for the additional specialized state that is the AT state or the RT state. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is possible to set a prescribed number of guaranteed games even for a normal state that is a non-AT state or a non-RT state, such as a precursor state.

For example, in the precursor state where “40G” is set as the number of precursor games, the number of games is determined by lottery for each game. Then, when the number of precursor games is exhausted, the total number of games, which is the cumulative number of games determined in each game, is calculated, and the initial number of games in the ART state is determined based on the total number of games ( “Total number of games = 30G” → “Initial number of games = 300G”).
At this time, since the number of games acquired in each game is determined by lottery, the total number of games may be extremely small. Therefore, as in the present invention, the total number of games when the number of precursor games is consumed and the prescribed guaranteed number of games are compared, thereby defining the total number of games, and hence the number of initial games in the ART state. It is possible to set the number of guaranteed games.
(Variation F of the additional acquisition pattern)
In the example described above, a special special state that can be shifted to the ART state with high probability is provided. It is also possible to set the number of guaranteed games for such a special special state and, as a result, provide a special special state that can be shifted to the ART state with a probability of 100%.

Specifically, a special zone transfer lottery for determining whether or not to shift to a special special state (10G special zone) in the normal general state is provided separately from the normal ART transfer lottery. When this special zone transfer lottery is won, the game moves to a special zone consisting of 10 games, and the number of games is acquired by lottery in each game in the zone. Then, an ART state is started with the cumulative number of games acquired up to the end of the special zone as the number of ART initial games.
Here, since the number of games in the special zone is acquired by lottery, the cumulative number of games may be “0G”. Then, in this case, the ART initial game number becomes “0G”, and the ART state of 0 game is started. This has the same meaning as not to go to the ART state (non-winning). Therefore, such a special zone corresponds to a conventional special special state that can be shifted to the ART state with high probability.

  On the other hand, when the specified number of guaranteed games is set for the special zone as described above, even if the total number of games is “0G” when the special zone is ended, the specified number of guaranteed games By comparing (30G), the number of games corresponding to the number of guaranteed games is secured. Then, when the special zone is digested, the number of games more than the number of guaranteed games can be obtained, and the number of games exceeding 0G can be set as the number of ART initial games. In other words, although the number of ART games may be different, it is possible to shift to the ART state with a probability of 100%.

Therefore, a special zone in which the number of guaranteed games is not set can be said to be a special special state that can be shifted to the ART state with a high probability. It can be said that it is a special special state that can be made. In this way, the transition to the ART state can be determined by setting the number of guaranteed games (executing the guarantee process).
(Variation G of addition acquisition pattern)
In the example described above, the guarantee process is executed in a scene where the length of the number of additional games acquired in the additional special state is determined. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is also possible to execute the guarantee process when determining whether or not to shift to the ART state.

  For example, in a specification that allows a transition to the ART state (winning) when the points earned in the normal gaming state reach a specified target value, special points that are easy to acquire so that the target value can be reached earlier than normal A special state (10G) is provided. In this case, a point acquisition lottery is executed for each game in the special special state, and the points acquired thereby are added to the total points. Then, when the special special state ends (game of the 10th game), the total points can be obtained by comparing the total points with the specified guarantee points, and can be obtained in the special special state. It is possible to secure a guarantee for the number of points.

Finally, the number of points acquired in the special special state is added to the cumulative number of points acquired before entering the special special state, and this added point number is compared with the specified target value. Then, it is determined whether to shift to the ART gaming state.
(Supplementary explanation of the embodiment)
In the example described above, an initial game number (10G) is set as the special added special state, and when this initial game number is consumed, the special state is terminated and the state shifts to the second ART state. However, the end time of the special added special state may be changed (extended or shortened) in addition to determining the end time of the special added special state in advance.

Specifically, a lottery (game number rewind lottery) for determining whether or not to reset the initial number of games is executed, and if this is won, the remaining number of games at that time is set as the initial number of games. The end time of the special addition special state is changed by resetting or the like. For example, when the special addition state is digested while executing the “game number rewind lottery” and the remaining four games are won, and the “game number rewind lottery” is won, the remaining game number is set to “10 By re-setting to “Game”, the special addition state can be extended.
(Supplementary explanation of the embodiment)
The above-described embodiment includes features including the following technical idea.

(1) First Feature Point (1-1) Configuration of First Feature Point The first feature point is as follows.
First, as the game progresses, a profit value that defines the profit of the player is determined, and the higher the value of the determined profit value, the more advantageous the game can be developed later ( 10).
Secondly, the gaming machine (10) has the following configuration, for example, as shown in FIG.

(1) Profit value lottery means (252)
The profit value lottery means (252) determines a profit value by lottery when a preset lottery condition is satisfied.
(2) Total value calculation means (253)
The total value calculation means (253) calculates the total value of the profit values determined by the profit value lottery means (252).
(3) Guaranteed value storage means (254)
The guaranteed value storage means (254) stores in advance the minimum limit of the total value calculated by the total value calculation means (253) as a guaranteed value.

(4) Security management means (255)
When the total value calculated by the total value calculation means (253) exceeds the security value stored in the security value storage means (254), the security management means (255) uses the total value to When the total value calculated by the total value calculation means (253) is less than the guarantee value stored in the guarantee value storage means (254), the subsequent guarantee is made using the guarantee value. The game can be advantageously developed.
Here, in the configuration of the first feature point, the security management means, as described above, when the total value calculated by the total value calculation means is less than the security value stored in the security value storage means. By setting the same value as the guaranteed value as the profit value, it is possible to advantageously develop the subsequent game. However, other than this, for example, there is provided a security value lottery means capable of determining a value equal to or higher than the security value stored in the security value storage means, and the security management means is configured such that the total value is If the value is not less than the guaranteed value, the value is determined by the guaranteed value lottery means, and this value (that is, a value that is equal to or greater than the guaranteed value) is used as the profit value.

  In the configuration of the first feature point, the guarantee value stored in advance by the guarantee value storage means can be a constant guarantee value throughout the game. However, in addition to this, for example, when a plurality of specialization states (or ART ready states / chance zones) are provided, a guaranteed value is set for each specialization state (or ART ready state / chance zone). The guarantee value storage means may store a plurality of guarantee values set for each state (period of a plurality of games) in which the profit value is determined by the profit value selection means. Alternatively, the security value stored in the security value storage means may be a value determined by a predetermined lottery.

(1-2) Correspondence Relationship between First Feature Point and Embodiment The correspondence relationship between the first feature point and the embodiment is as follows.
Here, “profit value” means, for example, “value” determined by the profit value lottery means (252) shown in FIG. To do. Here, the “value” includes a natural number (positive integer) and “0”, but is not limited to this, and “0” may be excluded or a “negative integer” may be added. Also good.
Here, the “total value” is a “value” obtained by totaling the profit values determined by the profit value lottery means (252) shown in FIG. 5, for example, but the profit value can be obtained only once. In this case, it matches the profit value.

Here, the “guarantee value” means a “profit value” stored in, for example, the guarantee value storage means (254) shown in FIG.
Here, the calculation timing of “calculate the total value” corresponds to, for example, “every profit value lottery, each time”.
(1-3) Variations of the first feature point Variations of the first feature point are as follows.
Here, as the “profit value”, for example, the “additional number of games” of the advantageous game (for example, “ART”) is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the “number of initial games” shown in FIG. It is not limited to the number of games, and the number of sets, the number of points, etc. may be used. In addition, as an advantageous game, so-called “ART” has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and so-called “AT” may be used.

Here, as the timing of calculating “calculate total value”, “every profit value lottery, every time” is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and includes batch calculation in “final game”.
Here, a case where “total value> guaranteed value” and a case where “total value <guaranteed value” are specified. Depending on how “profit value” is acquired, “total value = guaranteed value” may be considered. That is, since “total value = guaranteed value” is the same as a result, “guaranteed value” may be “profit value”, or “total value” may be “profit value”.

If the total value calculated by the total value calculation means is less than (or equal to) the guarantee value stored in the guarantee value storage means, a profit value exceeding the guarantee value may be used.
(1-4) Effects of the first feature point The effects of the first feature point are as follows.
That is, according to the first feature point, when the total value of the profit value obtained by the player exceeds the guaranteed value, the player can enjoy the profit exceeding the guaranteed value. Unfortunately, even if the total value is less than the guaranteed value, the player can at least benefit from the guaranteed value.

As a result, according to the first feature point, it is possible to fairly distribute the profits from the guaranteed value to the players at a minimum without being affected by the skill difference or chance of the players.
For example, when the profit value is determined by lottery according to a predetermined probability, even if a plurality of profit values are determined the same number of times, these total values are not necessarily the same total value every time. For example, a certain total value may be a value indicating a large profit (for example, 500 games, 500 cards, 500 Pt (points, hereinafter referred to as “Pt”)), or a certain total value may be a small profit. (E.g., 10 games, 10 cards, 10 Pt) (downswing). In this way, the total value is the total (total / total) of profit values determined by lottery, so if the subsequent game is developed based on this total value as it is, there will be a large range in the advantages of the game. May end up.

  On the other hand, in the first feature point, the subsequent game is developed according to the result of comparing the total value and the guaranteed value, not the total value as it is. For this reason, even if the total value becomes a value indicating a large profit and the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: large”, this (upward) is allowed. On the other hand, when the total value is a value indicating a small profit and the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: small”, this (downside) is not allowed and based on a predetermined guarantee value. Thus, the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: medium (> small)”.

  Therefore, the player can play a game that determines the profit value while the minimum advantage (medium) is ensured, but the subsequent game is developed with “advantage: large”. You can expect. Moreover, as the profit value is determined, the lottery probability until the total value is calculated, such as increasing the lottery probability when the profit value is small or decreasing the lottery probability when the profit value is large, is determined. Since it is not necessarily changed, the lottery table used in the profit value lottery means is reduced, the capacity is reduced, and a simple lottery process can be realized. This is suitable when the profit value lottery means and the security management means according to the first feature point are provided on the main control board.

(2) Second feature point (2-1) Configuration of second feature point The second feature point is as follows in addition to the first feature point described above.
That is, if the lottery condition is satisfied after a predetermined start condition is satisfied, the lottery by the profit value lottery means (252) is executed, and if the predetermined end condition is satisfied after the start condition is satisfied, the security management means According to (255), the total value and the guaranteed value are compared, and as a result of the comparison, the subsequent game can be advantageously developed using the total value or the guaranteed value.

(2-2) Correspondence Relationship Between Second Feature Point and Embodiment The correspondence relationship between the second feature point and the embodiment is as follows.
Here, the “predetermined start condition” corresponds to, for example, an entry into an “additional specialization zone” (an addition specialization state) in the “ART state”.
Here, the “predetermined end condition” corresponds to, for example, the “final game” in the “additional special zone” (additional specialization state).
(2-3) Variations of Second Feature Point Variations of the second feature point are as follows.

Here, as an example of the “predetermined start condition”, the entry into the “additional specialization zone” (additional specialization state) is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and when the predetermined combination is established in the “additional specialization zone” It may be determined when a predetermined symbol is displayed, when a stock or points reach a predetermined value, or by a lottery of success or failure of the start condition.
Here, as the “predetermined end condition”, the “final game” of the “addition specialization zone” (addition specialization state) is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the “previous specialization zone” has a predetermined role. It may be determined at the time of establishment, when a predetermined symbol is displayed, when a stock or points reach a predetermined value, or by a lottery of success or failure of an end condition.

(2-4) Operational Effect of Second Feature Point The second characteristic point has the following operational effect in addition to the above-described operational effect of the first feature point.
In other words, according to the second feature point, when the end condition is satisfied, the total value is compared with the guaranteed value, so that at the time when the end condition is satisfied, the player can receive at least the benefit of the guaranteed value. Can be made.
(3) Third feature point (3-1) Configuration of third feature point The third feature point is as follows in addition to the first feature point or the second feature point described above.

First, the profit value lottery means (252) performs lottery within a preset period of a plurality of games.
Secondly, the security management means (255) performs a lottery by the profit value lottery means (252) in the final game of a plurality of games, and the total value obtained by adding the profit values determined by the lottery satisfies the security value. If there is not, a difference value with respect to the guarantee value is obtained, and the difference value is added to the total value, so that the game after the final game can be advantageously developed.
(3-2) Correspondence Relationship Between Third Feature Point and Embodiment The correspondence relationship between the third feature point and the embodiment is as follows.

Here, the “profit value” means the “final profit value” determined by the final lottery of the last round.
Here, the “total value” is determined by lottery to the “final profit value”, and the “final profit value” is added to the total value calculated by the total value calculation means (253) shown in FIG. It means the profit value obtained by adding.
Here, the “difference value” means a profit value obtained by subtracting the “total value” from the “guaranteed value”.
Here, in the configuration of the third feature point, “in the final game of a plurality of games” means “the 10th game in the special addition special state of 10 games” in the first embodiment (FIGS. 15 and 16). Corresponds to “in the game of”.

In the configuration of the third feature point, “when the total value obtained by adding the profit values determined by the profit value lottery means is less than the guaranteed value” refers to the first embodiment (FIGS. 15 and 16). ), “The value (27) obtained by adding the additional G number (7) determined by the additional lottery and the total additional G number (20) is less than the guaranteed G number (30)”.
Further, in the configuration of the third feature point, “determining a difference value from the guaranteed value and adding the difference value to the total value” in the first embodiment (FIGS. 15 and 16). The difference value (3) between the value (27) obtained by adding the additional G number (7) determined by the extra lottery and the total additional G number (20) and the guaranteed G number (30) is obtained, and this difference value ( 3) is added to the added G number (7), and the added G number (10) after this addition is added to the total added game number (20).

In the configuration of the third feature point, “advantageously develop the game after the final game” means that “the special added special state is terminated in the first embodiment (FIGS. 15 and 16)” Then, the state shifts to the second ART state (the state in which the remaining 40G is increased to the remaining 60G) to which the number of games (20) acquired in the specialized state is added.
In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 15, in the final game, after determining whether or not the total additional G number is less than the guaranteed G number (S51), the additional determined by the additional lottery The total number of G is added and added to the number of G (S52). Therefore, the total additional G number when it is determined as the guaranteed G number is a value obtained by not adding the additional G number determined by the extra lottery in the game. Therefore, when determining with the guaranteed G number (S51) or obtaining the difference value (S56), as described above, the total added G number at that time is not the total added G number at that time. A value obtained by adding the additional G number determined in the game is used.

Note that, for example, when adding the added G number determined by the extra lottery to the total added G number and then determining the difference from the guaranteed G number or obtaining the difference value, unlike the first embodiment, the total It is determined whether the added G number itself is less than the guaranteed G number, and a difference value between the total added G number itself and the guaranteed G number is obtained.
(3-3) Action Effect of Third Feature Point The third feature point has the following action effect in addition to the action effect of the first feature point or the second feature point.

That is, according to the third feature point, in the final game of a plurality of games, when the total value is less than the guaranteed value, a difference value from the guaranteed value is obtained, and the difference value is added to the total value. At a minimum, it is possible to allow the player to enjoy the benefit of the guaranteed value.
(4) Fourth Feature Point (4-1) Configuration of Fourth Feature Point The fourth feature point is as follows in addition to the third feature point described above.
First, it is provided with notification control means (331) capable of notifying profit values determined by the profit value lottery means (252) by means of notification means (for example, the image display unit 84).

Second, the security management means (255) adds the difference value to the profit value determined by the profit value lottery means (252) in the final game to obtain a total value.
Third, the notification control means (331) causes the notification means (70) to notify the total value obtained by the security management means (255) instead of the profit value in the final game.
In the configuration of the fourth feature point, when the profit control value is determined by the profit value lottery means, for example, when the determined profit value is a profit value advantageous to the player (for example, determined by an extra lottery). When the number of played games exceeds “0”), the determined profit value may be notified. However, in addition to this, the notification control means notifies the profit value when the profit value is determined by the profit value lottery means, or notifies the profit value when the profit value lottery means is performed. May be.

(4-2) Correspondence Relationship Between Fourth Feature Point and Embodiment The correspondence relationship between the fourth feature point and the embodiment is as follows.
Here, as the “notification means”, for example, the image display unit (84) shown in FIG. 3 is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. You may make it alert | report by audio | voice using.
Here, “total value” means a value obtained by adding “difference value” to “final profit value”.
Here, in the configuration of the fourth feature point, “the difference value is added to the profit value determined by the profit value lottery means in the final game to obtain the total value” is the first embodiment (FIG. 15 and FIG. 16) “In the 10G game in the special extra special state, the difference value (3) is added to the extra G number (7) determined by the extra lottery, and the total value (10) is obtained. This is equivalent to “seeking”.

In the configuration of the fourth feature point, “notifying the total value by the notification means instead of the profit value in the final game” means that the first embodiment (FIGS. 15, 16, and 17G) )) Is equivalent to “notifying the total value (10) in place of the added G number (7) determined by the 10G extra lottery”.
(4-3) Action Effect of Fourth Feature Point The fourth feature point has the following action effect in addition to the action effect of the feature point of the third feature point.

That is, according to the fourth feature point, it is possible to notify the player of the total value obtained by adding the difference value with the guaranteed value to the profit value determined by the profit value lottery means in the final game.
As a result, according to the fourth feature point, the guarantee result can be notified to the player in an easily understandable manner.
(5) Fifth feature point (5-1) Configuration of fifth feature point In addition to any one of the first to fourth feature points described above, the fifth feature point is as follows. It is.

First, the profit value lottery means (252) has the following configuration, for example, as shown in FIG.
(1) Standard value lottery means (400)
The reference value lottery means (400) determines a reference value constituting the profit value by lottery.
(2) Continuous lottery means (410)
The continuous lottery means (410) executes the continuous lottery for increasing the reference value, and can repeatedly execute the continuous lottery on condition that the continuous lottery is won.
(3) Counting means (430)
The counting means (430) can count the number of repetitions of the continuous lottery by the continuous lottery means (410).

(4) Profit value calculation means (440)
The profit value calculation means (440) is out of the continuous lottery, and after the repetition of the continuous lottery, the reference value determined by the reference value lottery means (400) is multiplied by the count value of the count means (430) The “multiplication value” is calculated.
Second, the profit value lottery means (252) determines the “multiplication value” calculated by the profit value calculation means (440) as the “profit value”.
Here, in the configuration of the fifth feature point, the profit value calculation means calculates a multiplication value obtained by multiplying the reference value determined by the reference value lottery means and the count value (number of repetitions) counted by the counting means. The profit value lottery means determines the calculated multiplication value as the profit value.

  Thus, for example, when the reference value is “10”, if the count value by the counting means is “1”, the multiplication value is “10”, and as a result, the profit value is determined to be “10”. Similarly, when the reference value is “10”, if the count value by the counting means is “5”, the multiplication value is “50”, and as a result, the profit value is determined to be “50”. Here, the former profit value is the value of the reference value itself (profit value = reference value), and the latter profit value is a value obtained by multiplying the reference value by 5 (profit value = reference value × 5). . In this way, the result of repeatedly adding the reference values becomes the profit value, in other words, the result of collecting a plurality of reference values becomes the final profit value. Therefore, in the configuration of the fifth feature point, “ “Reference value constituting profit value”.

In the configuration of the fifth feature point, when the initial value of the count value by the counting means is “0” and the continuous lottery is not won, the multiplication value (and thus the profit value) calculated by the profit value calculating means is “ 0 ”(profit value = 0, profit value cannot be obtained). However, other than this, the calculated value (profit value) by the profit value calculating means always exceeds “0” (for example, profit value> 0, profit It may be provided so that a value can be obtained.
(5-2) Correspondence Relationship Between Fifth Feature Point and Embodiment The correspondence relationship between the fifth feature point and the embodiment is as follows.

Here, the “reference value” is a “value” that constitutes a profit value, and corresponds to, for example, the “reference game number” shown in FIG.
Here, “count value” means, for example, the number of counts by the counting means (430) shown in FIG. 22, that is, the number of repetitions of continuous lottery by the continuous lottery means (410). Equivalent to.
Here, the “multiplication value” is calculated by the formula “reference value × count value”. The “profit value” is also “reference value × count value → profit value”.

(5-3) Variation of Fifth Feature Point Variations of the fifth feature point are as follows.
Here, the “reference game number” is exemplified as the “reference value”, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a set number, a point number, or the like may be used.
Here, an example of “reference value × count value” is exemplified as “multiplication value”, but the present invention is not limited to this, and it may be obtained by an expression of “count value × reference value”. The “profit value” is also exemplified by “reference value × count value → profit value”, but is not limited thereto, and may be “count value × reference value → profit value”.

(5-4) Action Effect of Fifth Feature Point The fifth feature point has the following action effect in addition to the action effect of any one of the first to fourth feature points. Play.
