On the right side, a special symbol display device SD is provided. In the upper part, a normal symbol display device ND composed of a green lamp GL and a red lamp RL is provided. The production device 70 is responsible for the production that is consistent with the fluctuation of the special symbol display device SD, and a predetermined production in which the fluctuation of the design symbols L, C, and R in the left, middle, and right columns is superimposed on the background fishing scenery video appears. Let

  The production symbols L, C, and R in each row are composed of numbers 1 to 9, for example, and when winning the jackpot, finally the three-dimensional alignment of any of 111 to 999 is stopped and displayed. Eventually, the missing symbols that do not come together are stopped and displayed. In the special symbol display device SD, after random fluctuations, for example, when a big hit is won, any number 1 to 9 that determines the winning symbol is stopped, and when it is off, the bar “-” is stopped.

  In the production device 70, during the development of a fishing video with a background that is a story-like background, a continuous production in which a plurality of production symbols L, C, and R are changed and stopped based on a lot of lottery lotteries, and a single background. It is made possible to appear in the fishing video of No. 1 with a one-time production in which production patterns L, C, and R are fluctuated and stopped one by one based on each big hit lottery. In the continuous performance, a plurality of jackpot lottery results accumulated within a range of up to four reserved balls are sequentially derived from the earliest one, and finally the jackpot or miss is deterministically derived.

  H1, H2, H3, and H4 are special symbols for the special symbol that clearly indicates that the random number value acquired as a holding ball is effectively stored while the special symbol of the starter is fluctuating in the special symbol display device SD or the jackpot game. It is a holding ball indicator. Starting winnings that occur when more than four of these indicators are lit are subject to prize balls, but are excluded from the lottery drawing. h1, h2, h3, and h4 are similar reserved ball indicators for normal symbols triggered by the passage of a ball to a gate GT described later.

A predetermined number, for example, 15 prize balls are paid out for each winning prize to the big winning opening 9. For example, a maximum of, for example, 10 winnings are permitted for each round of 30 seconds. When the predetermined number of winnings or the time elapses, the large winning opening 9 is once closed at the end of one round, reopened after a predetermined interval of 2 to 3 seconds, and repeated up to a maximum of 15 rounds, for example.

4) Gate GT
By passing the ball to the gate GT, for example, one normal symbol lottery random number that is updated at high speed within a predetermined range of 0 to 250 is acquired and stored in the RAM of the main control unit MC, and the green lamp of the normal symbol display device ND The normal symbol variation by the alternate lighting of the GL and the red lamp RL is activated. The normal symbol winning probability is, for example, 25/251 during normal times. After the jackpot game, continue until the number of lottery wins reaches a predetermined upper limit number of times, for example, 100 times, when entering a probability-changing game where the probability of winning the jackpot is increased from 1/400 of normal times to 1/40, for example The time reduction (hereinafter referred to as time saving) is 250/251.

  The variation time of the normal symbol is, for example, 10 seconds for normal time and 1 second for short time. After fluctuation for a predetermined time, the green lamp GL is turned on when the normal symbol is won, and the red lamp RL is turned off when the normal symbol is won. At the time of winning, the petals 8a and 8b of the electric tulip 80 are opened up to a maximum of 0.5 seconds or a maximum of 1 ball at the normal time, and open up to a maximum of 3 seconds or a maximum of 2 balls at the time of shortage.

5) Others A predetermined number, for example, 10 award balls are paid out for each rail 20, a ball return prevention piece 21, a ball stopper 22, and a winning prize that divides a substantially circular game area 200 and guides a ball to be launched by the launch handle 4.

The main control unit MC is connected to the winning sensor 8s at the start port 8, the winning sensor 9s at the grand winning port 9, the ball passing sensor GTs at the gate GT, and the winning sensors at the general winning ports 23 to 26 via the I / O port IN. 23s to 26s are input. A command is transmitted in a one-way manner from the main control unit MC to the peripheral control units SC1 and SC2 via the relay board CB. The peripheral control units SC1 and 2 transmit and receive data bidirectionally.

  From the main control unit MC, via the driver circuit Dr0, the special symbol display device SD, the normal symbol display device ND, the special ball holding ball display H1 to H4, the normal ball holding ball display h1 to h4, An opening / closing drive part D1 by a solenoid or the like for opening / closing the petals 8a, 8b of the electric tulip 80 and a similar opening / closing drive part D2 for opening / closing the movable member 90 of the special winning opening 9 are controlled. The first peripheral controller SC1 controls the effect device 70 via the driver circuit Dr1. The second peripheral control unit SC2 controls the speakers 51 and 52 and the lamps 61 to 65 via the driver circuit Dr2. In the main control unit MC, the elapsed time specified by the command transmitted to the peripheral control units SC1 and SC2 (hereinafter referred to as the sub-side) is managed as a timer, and the control on the main control unit MC side and the control on the sub-side To be consistent.

  The game program stored in the ROM of the main control unit MC is a process for storing the random numbers for lottery lottery in the order of acquisition in the special symbol holding ball storage area K of the RAM based on the start winning prize, and the success / failure of the jackpot based on this memory, etc. In response to this, a specific symbol is selected from a variation pattern table E defined in advance in the ROM, and special symbol-related processing for varying the special symbols and effect symbols L, C, and R is performed. In addition, in this game program, when the production device 70 performs a continuous production, by selecting a variation pattern for the continuous production from the variation pattern table E, the continuous production time from the start to the end of the continuous production and each design. Continuous production time setting means X for setting the fluctuation time to a predetermined value is constructed.

  In the effect program stored in the ROM of the first peripheral control unit SC1, the effect pattern data M to appear on the effect device 70 is prepared according to the variation pattern command transmitted from the main control unit MC, and the following Each means of a) to c) is constructed.

A) Expected end time notification means Y
The expected end time notification means Y selects the expected end time of the continuous production from a predetermined selection range defined in the notification pattern data J, and displays “50 seconds remaining”, “52 seconds remaining”, etc. on the effect device 70, Notifies how many seconds after the start of the continuous production is expected. In this case, when the result of the internal lottery to be derived at the end of the continuous performance is a big hit, it is a specification that selects the expected end time with a small deviation that fits at the expiration of the set continuous performance time at a higher rate than when it is off. Yes.

A) Meaning of end of period update means Z
The expected end time update means Z provides notification of the expected end time on the rendering device 70, for example, “49 remaining seconds”, “48 remaining seconds”, “47 remaining” with the elapse of a predetermined time such as every second. Seconds ”, etc., are sequentially updated by countdown.

C) Alignment production means W
When the result of the internal lottery to be derived at the end of the continuous performance is a big hit, and when there is a deviation between the expiration of the set continuous performance time and the predicted end time of the notification (for example, If the set continuous production time is 50 seconds but the countdown starts from "52 seconds remaining", or the set continuous production time is 52 seconds but the countdown starts from "50 seconds remaining", etc.) Let it be derived.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in the special symbol related processing in the main control unit MC, the unprocessed jackpot lottery random number obtained at the time of starting winning by the special symbol variation start pre-processing is shifted in the special symbol reserved ball storage area K. At the same time, the count of the reserved ball number storage unit that stores the current number of unprocessed held balls is reduced by one (S1).

  Next, whether the jackpot lottery random number in the operating random number storage unit in the area K to be processed now is won (S2), or when starting winning from a continuous effect lottery random number warehouse that is updated at high speed within a predetermined range, or Whether the random number for continuous production lottery obtained separately is not won for the continuous production (S3), or the count of the reserved ball number storage unit is 0 and there is no unprocessed held ball (S4), either In this case, the variation pattern and the stop symbol for the single production are determined by the single production start pre-processing (S5).

  On the other hand, if the random number for winning the lottery in the operation random number storage unit to be processed is not winning (S2), the random number for continuous production lottery is won for continuous production (S3), and the number of reserved balls is stored If the count of the part is not 0 and there is an unprocessed reserved ball (S4), the variation pattern for the continuous effect and the final stop symbol are determined by the pre-process for starting the continuous effect (S6). The winning probability of continuous production is set to about 30 to 50%, for example.

  When the variation pattern and the stop symbol are determined, the determined stop symbol and variation pattern are transmitted as commands to the sub side, and the variation of the effect symbols L, C, and R and the development of the moving image of the background are started on the effect device 70 (S7). ). The main control unit MC starts the special symbol variation on the special symbol display device SD (S8), and performs the waiting process of the variation time corresponding to the single variation specified by the variation pattern or each variation during the continuous production. After that (S9), the special symbol variation on the special symbol display device SD is ended, and the winning / failing result for one lottery lottery is derived (S10).

  At the time of single production, “1” is set at step S5, and at the time of continuous production, “2-4” is initially set at step S6. The count in the continuous variation number storage unit is reduced by one (S11) until the count becomes zero. (S12), through special symbol variation start pre-processing similar to step S1 (S13), steps S8 to S12 are repeated.

  As shown in FIG. 4, in the special symbol variation pre-start process called in steps S1 and S13 in FIG. 3, if there is no currently unprocessed reserved ball and the count in the reserved ball number storage unit is 0, the special symbol related processing is immediately terminated. (S14), when there is an unprocessed holding ball, the second winning random number for the big hit lottery of the first holding ball storage unit acquired first in the special symbol holding ball storage area K is acquired in the operation random number storage unit If there is, the random number for jackpot lottery of the second reserved ball storage unit is stored in the first reserved ball storage unit, and if there is a third acquisition, the random number for jackpot lottery of the third reserved ball storage unit is stored in the second reserved ball storage unit In the case of the fourth acquisition, the jackpot lottery random number in the fourth reserved ball storage unit is sequentially shifted to the third reserved ball storage unit by one layer (S15), and the count of the reserved ball number storage unit is only one. Decrease (S16), subroutine To turn.

  The RAM of the main control unit MC is provided with a reserved ball number storage unit and a continuous variation number storage unit in addition to a special symbol reserved ball storage area K. The reserved ball number storage unit includes four reserved balls. The value is incremented by 1 for each start winning that occurs within a range not exceeding the upper limit, and the continuous fluctuation number storage unit is initialized in step S5 or S6. According to the subroutine processing of FIG. 4, the lottery random numbers for big hits that are acquired at the time of a new start winning are sequentially stored in the reserved ball storage unit in which a vacancy occurs.

  At the time of losing, the pattern that coincides with the end of the continuous performance time, for example, the expected end of “after 20 seconds” (change display on the rendering device 70 “20 seconds remaining”) is not selected if there is a change of 20 seconds. A pattern with a large deviation is selected at a high rate. At the time of big hit, a pattern that matches when the continuous performance time expires is selected at a high rate, and a pattern with a large deviation from the continuous performance time is selected at a low rate.

  As shown in FIG. 14, in the production example 1 related to the continuous production, there are three or more holding balls, but the jackpot is not included, and three times of 50 seconds (first 5 seconds, second 20 seconds, third 25 seconds). The fluctuation pattern F12 that is out of fluctuation is selected, “after 52 seconds” is selected as the expected completion notification pattern, and 7-6-7 is determined as the final off-design.

  When the first fluctuation is started, “remaining 52 seconds” is displayed on the production device 70, the countdown starts, and the production symbols L, C, and R displayed in the lower right of the background video that the angler takes down are displayed. Fluctuated. After a 5 second fluctuation that becomes “remaining 47 seconds”, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 5-2-3, is stopped.

  When moving to the second fluctuation, the video develops that the fish hits the lowered mechanism, and at the lower right, the production symbols L, C, and R fluctuate for 20 seconds, and the remaining 27 seconds after 20 seconds fluctuation. Then, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 1-8-9 is stopped.

  Moving on to the third fluctuation, the video will be further developed to catch the hit fish, and the design symbols L, C, and R will fluctuate for 25 seconds at the lower right, and the countdown is incomplete after fluctuation for 25 seconds. When “2 seconds remaining” is reached, a story-like disadvantageous outcome is displayed that allows the fish to be cut off and escaped, and the final off symbol 7-6-7 is stopped, which is enlarged and displayed in the center of the screen. Is deterministically derived.

  As shown in FIG. 15, in the production example 2 related to the continuous production, there is a big hit on the third of the holding balls, and the third variation of 50 seconds (first 5 seconds, second 20 seconds, third 25 seconds). The jackpot variation pattern V12 is selected, “after 50 seconds” is selected as the expected termination notification pattern, and 7-7-7 is determined as the jackpot symbol.

  When the first fluctuation is started, “50 seconds remaining” is displayed on the production device 70, the countdown starts, and the production symbols L, C, and R displayed in the lower right of the background video that the angler takes down are displayed. Fluctuated. After a 5 second fluctuation that becomes “remaining 45 seconds”, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 5-2-3, is stopped.

  When moving to the second fluctuation, the video develops to a fish that hits the lowered mechanism, and at the lower right, the production symbols L, C, and R fluctuate for 20 seconds, and the remaining 25 seconds after 20 seconds fluctuation. Then, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 1-8-9 is stopped.

  Moving on to the third fluctuation, the video will be further developed to catch the hit fish, and the design symbols L, C, R will fluctuate for 25 seconds at the lower right, and the remaining 0 seconds after the fluctuation for 25 seconds. Then, a story-satisfactory ending that succeeds in catching the fish is displayed, the jackpot symbol 7-7-7 is stopped, and this is enlarged and displayed in the center of the screen, and the jackpot is deterministically derived.

  As shown in FIG. 16, in the production example 3 related to the continuous production, the third of the holding balls has a big hit, and the third variation of 50 seconds (first 5 seconds, second 20 seconds, third 25 seconds). The jackpot variation pattern V12 is selected, “after 52 seconds” is selected as the expected termination notification pattern, and 7-7-7 is determined as the jackpot symbol.

  When the first fluctuation is started, “remaining 52 seconds” is displayed on the production device 70, the countdown starts, and the production symbols L, C, and R displayed in the lower right of the background video that the angler takes down are displayed. Fluctuated. After a 5 second fluctuation that becomes “remaining 47 seconds”, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 5-2-3, is stopped.

  When moving to the second fluctuation, the video develops that the fish hits the lowered mechanism, and at the lower right, the production symbols L, C, and R fluctuate for 20 seconds, and the remaining 27 seconds after 20 seconds fluctuation. Then, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 1-8-9 is stopped.

  If it shifts to the third variation, it will further develop into a movie that tries to catch the hit fish, and the production symbols L, C, and R will vary at the lower right. When the countdown reaches an unfinished “remaining 2 seconds” after the fluctuation for 25 seconds, the matching effect means W operates to insert the matching effect in the final stage of the original effect pattern data corresponding to the fluctuation pattern V12. That is, a temporary disadvantageous ending in which the fish can be cut once and escaped is displayed, and a random temporary stop symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 7-6-7 is displayed. Although it seems to be off for a moment, the countdown is quickly advanced and the reversal ending of the underwater fish jumping along with the display of “Remaining 0 seconds” is displayed, and the jackpot symbol 7-7 -7 is stopped, this is enlarged and displayed at the center of the screen, and the jackpot is deterministically derived.

  As shown in FIG. 17, in the production example 4 related to the continuous production, the third holding ball has a big hit, and the third variation of 52 seconds (first 5 seconds, second 20 seconds, third 27 seconds). The jackpot variation pattern V13 is selected, “after 50 seconds” is selected as the expected termination notification pattern, and 7-7-7 is determined as the jackpot symbol.

  When the first fluctuation is started, “50 seconds remaining” is displayed on the production device 70, the countdown starts, and the production symbols L, C, and R displayed in the lower right of the background video that the angler takes down are displayed. Fluctuated. After a 5 second fluctuation that becomes “remaining 45 seconds”, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 5-2-3, is stopped.

  When moving to the second fluctuation, the video develops to a fish that hits the lowered mechanism, and at the lower right, the production symbols L, C, and R fluctuate for 20 seconds, and the remaining 25 seconds after 20 seconds fluctuation. Then, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 1-8-9 is stopped.

  If it shifts to the third variation, it will further develop into a movie that tries to catch the hit fish, and the production symbols L, C, and R will vary at the lower right. When the countdown display indicates “0 seconds remaining” after 25 seconds in the middle of the 27th variation for the third time, the alignment effect means W is activated, and the final 2 seconds of the original effect pattern data corresponding to the variation pattern V13 is the alignment effect. Is replaced. That is, a temporary disadvantageous ending in which the fish can be cut once and escaped is displayed, and a random temporary stop symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 7-6-7 is displayed. Although it seems to be off for a moment, the temporary stop symbol is re-variable, and after 2 seconds, “Over 2 seconds” is displayed and a fish in the sea jumps and displays a reversal ending that succeeds in capturing. -7-7 is stopped, this is enlarged and displayed at the center of the screen, and the jackpot is deterministically derived.

  In the above embodiment, the variation time of each time defined by the variation pattern for continuous production is a short-term long-term type with a short initial phase and a longer final phase, but the variation time of the early phase and / or middle phase may be lengthened. For example, the first time is 3 seconds, the second time is 30 seconds, the third time is 3 seconds, the fourth time is 9 seconds, etc. The first time is 30 seconds, the second time is 10 seconds, the third time is 5 seconds, the fourth time is It may be 3 seconds. Further, such a variation pattern may be combined with an end-stage long-term variation pattern.

  In the above embodiment, the present invention is applied to a continuous effect straddling up to four reserved balls, and the big hit or miss is derived after the processing of the preceding reserved ball corresponding to the miss, but is defined by the variation patterns F10 to F15 and V10 to V15. The fluctuation time of each time is set as a pseudo plural division fluctuation time with temporary stop of the production symbols L, C and R, and F10 to F15 and V10 to V15 are appropriately selected at the time of a single reserved ball processing, and the one-shot production May cause a pseudo continuous production to appear, thereby deriving one big hit lottery result.

As shown in FIG. 18, the game board 2 according to the second embodiment has the following specifications 1) to 3) instead of the start port 8 and the center unit 7 of the first embodiment.
1) First start port 81
The first starting port 81 is composed of a winning port that always allows one ball to enter, and a predetermined number, for example, three winning balls, for example, per winning unit (hereinafter referred to as the first starting winning unit) to the first starting port 81. In addition to paying out, for example, within the range of the first reserved ball, which is a maximum of four unprocessed upper limits, for example, one big winning lottery random number to be updated within a predetermined range of 0 to 399 is acquired, and the main control unit MC Stored in the reserved symbol storage area K for special symbols in the RAM in the order of acquisition. If the acquired random number value matches the winning numerical value, for example, 7, it is a big win, otherwise it is a non-winning, and this winning or losing is the first special symbol display device SD1 using a 7-segment LED. Above, it derives | leads-out sequentially through the fluctuation | variation of a random 1st special symbol. The first start port 81 and the first special symbol display device SD1 are main components of the first lottery device A.

2) Second start port 82
The second start port 82 is normally in a state in which no ball can be entered by the first start port 81, and the ball can enter when the petals 8a and 8b of the electric tulip 80 are opened. A predetermined number of, for example, three prize balls are paid out for each winning prize (hereinafter referred to as a second starting prize) to the second starting port 82, and within a range of, for example, a maximum of four unprocessed second reserved balls. Thus, for example, one lottery lottery random number to be updated at a high speed within a predetermined range of 0 to 399 is acquired and stored in the special symbol reserved ball storage area K of the RAM of the main control unit MC in the order of acquisition. If the acquired random number value matches the winning numerical value, for example, 7, it is a jackpot winning, otherwise it is a non-winning winning, this winning or winning is the second special symbol display device SD2 using 7 segment LED Above, it derives | leads-out sequentially through the fluctuation | variation of a random 2nd special symbol. The second start port 82 and the second special symbol display device SD2 are main components of the second lottery device B for jackpot.

3) Center unit 7
This unit 7 includes an effect device 70 composed of a color liquid crystal display that displays a visual effect in the center of the decorative frame 71. A first special symbol display device SD1 is provided on the right side, and a second special symbol display device SD2 is provided on the left side.

The effect device 70 is responsible for the effect that is consistent with the variation of the first or second special symbol display device SD1 or SD2, and the design variation of the effect symbols L, C, and R on the left, middle, and right columns on the background fishing scenery video. Appears a predetermined production that is superimposed.

  The production symbols L, C, and R in each row are composed of numbers 1 to 9, for example, and when winning the jackpot, finally the three-dimensional alignment of any of 111 to 999 is stopped and displayed. Eventually, the missing symbols that do not come together are stopped and displayed. After the random change, the first and second special symbol display devices SD1 and SD2 are stopped, for example, any number 1 to 9 that determines the winning symbol when the big win is won, and the bar “-” is stopped when it is off The

  In H11, H12, H13, and H14, the first or second special symbol display device SD1 or SD2 starts the first game ball when the first special symbol or the second special symbol is changing or the jackpot game is newly started. This is a reserved ball display device for the first special symbol which clearly indicates that the random number value acquired as the first reserved ball is effectively stored when winning in the mouth 81. The first start winnings that occur in excess of four with all of the indicators lit are subject to prize balls, but are excluded from the lottery drawing.

  In H21, H22, H23, and H24, the second or first special symbol display device SD2 or SD1 starts a second game ball when the first second or first special symbol is fluctuating or during a big hit game. It is a holding ball display device for the second special symbol that clearly indicates that the random number value acquired as the second holding ball is stored effectively when winning the mouth 82. The second start winnings that occur in excess of 4 with all the indicators lit are subject to prize balls, but are excluded from the lottery drawing.

  As shown in FIG. 19, the control device CN according to the second embodiment replaces the winning sensor 8s of the starting port 8 of the first embodiment with a winning sensor 81s of the first starting port 81 and a winning sensor 82s of the second starting port 82. Is input to the main control unit MC. From the main control unit MC, instead of the special symbol display device SD and the special symbol holding ball displays H1 to H4 of the first embodiment, the first special symbol display device SD1 and the second special symbol display device SD2, and the first The reserved ball indicators H11 to H14 for special symbols and the reserved ball indicators H21 to H24 for second special symbols are controlled.

  As shown in FIG. 20, in the first start winning process in the main control unit MC, if there is a first start winning (A1), if the count in the first reserved ball number storage unit is 4 or less (A2), The count of the first reserved ball number storage unit is incremented by 1 (A3), and the count of the total retained ball number storage unit of the first and second reserved balls is incremented by 1 (A4). Next, 1 is substituted for the number a (A5), and it is determined whether or not the a-th reserved ball storage unit in the special symbol reserved ball storage area K is available (A6). In the reserved ball storage unit, the hold correspondence flag “0” for identifying the first held ball and the acquired random number for lottery lottery are stored (A7).

  If the a-th reserved ball storage unit is not free, the number a is incremented by 1 (A8), and the total upper limit of 8 of the first and second reserved balls is exceeded (A9) until the a-th reserved ball memory is stored. The vacancy of the part is searched and the random number for the big hit lottery is stored (A7). If the count in the first reserved ball number storage unit exceeds the upper limit of 4 in step A2 or if a exceeds 8 in step A9, the lottery lottery random number is not acquired and discarded (A10).

  As shown in FIG. 21, in the second start winning process in the main control unit MC, if there is a second start winning (B1), if the count in the second reserved ball number storage unit is 4 or less (B2), The count of the second reserved ball number storage unit is incremented by 1 (B3), and the count of the total retained ball number storage unit of the second and first reserved balls is incremented by 1 (B4). Next, 1 is substituted into the number a (B5), and it is determined whether or not the a-th reserved ball storage unit in the special symbol reserved ball storage area K is available (B6). In the reserved ball storage unit, the hold corresponding flag “1” for identifying the second held ball and the acquired random number for lottery lottery are stored (B7).

  If the a-th reserved ball storage unit is not free, the number a is incremented by 1 (B8), and the total upper limit of 8 of the second and first reserved balls is exceeded (B9) until the a-th reserved ball memory is stored. The vacant lot is searched and the random number for lottery lottery is stored (B7). If the count in the second reserved ball number storage unit exceeds the upper limit of 4 in step B2 or if a exceeds 8 in step B9, the big hit lottery random number is not acquired and discarded (B10).

  As shown in FIG. 22, in the second embodiment, the special symbol variation start pre-processing called in steps S1 and S13 in FIG. 3 is different from that in the first embodiment in FIG. If the count of the total number of reserved balls in the first and second reserved balls is 0, the special symbol related processing is immediately finished (S14), but if there is an unprocessed reserved ball, in the special symbol reserved ball storage area K The first lottery lottery random number and the pending correspondence flag (hereinafter referred to as jackpot random number, etc.) of the first reserved ball storage unit acquired and stored first in the operation random number storage unit, and the second reserved ball if there is a second acquisition memory When there is a third acquisition memory, the jackpot random number of the storage unit in the first reserved ball storage unit, when there is a fourth acquisition memory, the jackpot random number of the third reserved ball storage unit in the second reservation ball storage unit The jackpot random number of the fourth reserved ball storage unit is stored in the third reserved ball storage unit, and if there is a fifth acquired memory, the jackpot random number of the fifth reserved ball storage unit is stored in the fourth reserved ball storage unit as the sixth acquired memory. If there is a big hit of the sixth reserved ball storage unit Etc. in the fifth reserved ball storage unit, if there is a seventh acquired memory, the jackpot random number of the seventh reserved ball storage unit is stored in the sixth reserved ball storage unit, and if there is an eighth acquired memory, the eighth reserved ball memory is stored. The jackpot random numbers and the like are sequentially shifted by one layer to the seventh reserved ball storage unit (S15), the count of the reserved ball number storage unit is decreased by one (S16), and the holding correspondence flag of the operating random number storage unit If it is compatible with the first reserved ball (S17), the count in the first reserved ball number storage unit is decreased by one (S18), and if the hold corresponding flag in the operation random number storage unit is compatible with the second reserved ball (S17) The count of the number storage unit is decreased by 1 (S19), and the subroutine is returned.

  As shown in FIG. 23, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in FIG. 5 in the continuous effect start pre-processing that is called in step S5 in FIG. When the random number for lottery lottery in the operation random number storage unit in the special symbol reserved ball storage area K is a win (S51), the variation pattern is determined with reference to the one-shot effect table (bonus) in the variation pattern table E of FIG. One variation pattern corresponding to the jackpot is selected from a plurality of modes by lottery processing using random numbers (S52). Subsequently, 1 is initially set in the count of the continuous variation number storage unit (S53), and a jackpot symbol to be arranged in three in the effect symbols L, C, and R is determined by a lottery process using a random number for determining the jackpot symbol (S54). ), The hold correspondence flag is set as subsequent information of the jackpot symbol information, etc., and is set as transmission information to be notified to the sub side together with the jackpot symbol (S540).

  If a negative determination is made in step S51 of FIG. 23, the variation pattern table corresponding to the detachment is selected by a lottery process using a random number for variation pattern determination with reference to the single-effect production table (disconnection) in the variation pattern table E of FIG. Select one from among them (S55). Subsequently, 1 is initially set to the count of the continuous variation number storage unit (S56), and the outfit symbols L, C, and R that are not arranged in three are determined by lottery processing using random numbers for determining outliers (S57). ), The hold correspondence flag is set as subsequent information of the off symbol information, and the transmission information is notified to the sub side together with the off symbol (S570).

  As shown in FIG. 24, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in FIG. 6 in the pre-continuous effect start process called in step S6 in FIG. When the jackpot lottery random number stored in any random number storage unit of the special symbol reserved ball storage area K is won (S61), refer to the continuous effect table (jackpot) in the variation pattern table E described later, A variation pattern corresponding to the n-th variation jackpot is selected from a plurality of modes by a lottery process using a random number for variation pattern determination according to the retained ball classification indicating what number (n-th) retained ball is the jackpot ( S62). Subsequently, n (any one of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) is initially set in the count of the continuous variation number storage unit (S63), and finally, the lottery process using the jackpot symbol determination random number is performed. In addition to determining the jackpot symbol to be lined up in the production symbols L, C, and R (S64), the n-fold variation holding correspondence flag is set as subsequent information of the jackpot symbol information and notified to the sub side together with the jackpot symbol It is set as transmission information (S640).

  When a negative determination is made in step S61 in FIG. 24, referring to a continuous effect table (out) in a variation pattern table E described later, according to the number of reserved balls (n), A variation pattern corresponding to all n variation variations is selected from a plurality of modes by lottery processing using variation pattern determination random numbers (S65). Subsequently, n (any one of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) is initially set in the count of the continuous variation number storage unit (S66), and finally is determined by lottery processing using a random number for determining outliers. In addition to determining the out-of-line symbols that are not arranged in the production symbols L, C, and R (S67), the n-time variation hold correspondence flag is set as subsequent information of the out-of- symbol information and notified to the sub-side together with the out-of-sequence symbols. It is set as transmission information (S670).

  As shown in FIG. 27, the notification pattern data J according to the second embodiment includes 115 seconds fluctuation F16 or V16, 117 seconds fluctuation F17 or V17, 140 seconds fluctuation F18 or V18, 142 seconds fluctuation in addition to those in FIG. Eight types of notification patterns corresponding to F19 or V19, 160 second fluctuation F20 or V20, 162 second fluctuation F21 or V21, 180 second fluctuation F22 or V22, 182 second fluctuation F23 or V23 are additionally defined.

  As shown in FIG. 28, in the continuous production example 5 according to the second embodiment, there are three or more holding balls, but the jackpot is not included, and it is 50 seconds (first 5 seconds, second 20 seconds, third 25 seconds). A variation pattern F12 that is out of three variations is selected, “after 52 seconds” is selected as the expected completion notification pattern, and 7-6-7 is determined as the final out symbol. In addition, the hold correspondence flag corresponds to the first hold ball for the first change, the second hold ball for the second change, and the first hold ball for the third change.

  When the first change is started, "52 seconds remaining" is displayed on the production device 70, the countdown starts, and the first holding ball displayed in the lower right of the background video that the angler who turns to the left unloads the device. Corresponding production symbols L, C, and R are changed. After a 5 second fluctuation that becomes “remaining 47 seconds”, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 5-2-3, is stopped.

  Moving on to the second variation, the video develops into a movie in which the fish hits the mechanism of the fisherman who turned to the right in correspondence with the second holding ball, and in the lower left, the design symbols L, C, When R fluctuates for 20 seconds and reaches “the remaining 27 seconds” after the fluctuation of 20 seconds, the random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 1-8-9 is stopped.

  Moving on to the third variation, the video is further developed to catch the fish hit by the fisherman who turned to the left in correspondence with the first holding ball, and at the lower right, the design symbol L, corresponding to the first holding ball, C and R fluctuate for 25 seconds. After 25 seconds, the countdown is incomplete, but when the remaining 2 seconds are reached, a story-wise disadvantageous ending that allows the fish to be cut off and escaped is displayed. 7-6-7 is stopped, and this is enlarged and displayed at the center of the screen, and the deviation is definitely derived.

  As shown in FIG. 29, in the continuous production example 6 according to the second embodiment, there is a big hit at the third holding ball and three times of 50 seconds (first time 5 seconds, second time 20 seconds, third time 25 seconds). The variation pattern V12 for the big hit jackpot is selected, “after 50 seconds” is selected as the expected termination notification pattern, and 7-7-7 is determined as the jackpot symbol. In addition, the hold correspondence flag corresponds to the first hold ball for the first change, the second hold ball for the second change, and the first hold ball for the third change.

  When the first change is started, “50 remaining seconds” is displayed on the production device 70, the countdown starts, and the first holding ball displayed small in the lower right corner of the background video that the angler who turns to the left takes off the device. Corresponding production symbols L, C, and R are changed. After a 5 second fluctuation that becomes “remaining 45 seconds”, a random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 5-2-3, is stopped.

  Moving on to the second variation, the video develops into a movie in which the fish hits the mechanism of the fisherman who turned to the right in correspondence with the second holding ball, and in the lower left, the design symbols L, C, When R fluctuates for 20 seconds and reaches “the remaining 25 seconds” after the fluctuation of 20 seconds, the random off symbol determined by lottery or the like on the first peripheral control unit SC1 side, for example, 1-8-9 is stopped.

  Moving on to the third variation, the video is further developed to catch the fish hit by the fisherman who turned to the left in correspondence with the first holding ball, and at the lower right, the design symbol L, corresponding to the first holding ball, When C and R fluctuate for 25 seconds and become “0 second remaining” after the fluctuation of 25 seconds, a story-wise ending that succeeds in catching a fish is displayed, and the jackpot symbol 7-7-7 is stopped. An enlarged display is made in the center of the screen, and the jackpot is deterministically derived.
