Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine such as a slot machine (rotating game machine) called a pachislot using a medal as a game medium or a pachilot using a pachinko ball as a game medium.

  In the present invention, the control steps or control procedures for realizing the method are as follows: semiconductor memory, LD (laser disk), HD (hard disk), FD (flexible disk), MD (mini disk), CD (Compact disc), DVD (digital versatile disc or digital video disc), or a program (for example, game software) recorded on an information storage medium such as a blue ray disc itself.

  In recent years, games using a swivel type game machine called a pachislot machine have been actively performed in conventional pachinko halls and pachislot halls. There is also a spinning-type game machine called a pacilot (or parrot) that performs the above-described spinning-type game using a pachinko ball used in a pachinko machine (bullet-type game machine) as a game medium. In video game machines such as amusement facilities, and PCs and game machines of general households via the Internet, a substitute game called a token (ie, “game medium”) is used to make a revolving game. A simulation game is being simulated.

  For example, in the above-described normal game of a spinning-reel game machine, when a player operates a start lever after inserting a predetermined number of game medals (game media or tokens), a bonus, a plurality of small roles, or a replay is performed at that timing. Perform an internal lottery (or “internal lottery”) for a combination (replay) and rotate multiple drums (mostly three or four reel drums) from top to bottom to While starting a variable display game that fluctuates a plurality of symbols displayed (drawn) on the trunk (usually, the plurality of symbols are drawn on a reel tape and pasted on each drum), When the player operates the stop button corresponding to each drum, and the symbols such as bells, watermelons, cherries, etc., which are won internally, are displayed on the active line in a predetermined combination, a prize is awarded. degree When the game medals are paid out, if the replay symbol is displayed on the active line and the replay (re-game) is activated, the game medals will not be inserted (or the number of games inserted in the previous game will be inserted as it is) next time. It becomes a re-playing state where the normal game can be performed.

  In particular, when a big bonus is won internally as a result of the internal lottery of normal games, and a specific symbol (for example, a red 7 symbol or a blue 7 symbol) is stopped and displayed on the active line by a reel drum stop operation. In addition, a large bonus game mode (BB game mode: an accessory continuous operation device), which is the most advantageous game mode for the player, is entered, and a large number of game medals can be acquired at once. In addition, when the regular bonus is won and the bar symbols are arranged on the active line as a specific symbol, a regular bonus game (RB game) is executed, and although it does not reach the BB game, a corresponding game medal can be obtained. In any case, for a player, the establishment of these bonus games is the greatest concern in the revolving game. When a bonus game is won or released as a result of executing the internal lottery, a special symbol (7 symbols or bar symbols) is stored by setting a bonus flag in a data storage area such as RAM or RWM. Until these are complete, the flag is carried over to the subsequent variable display game.

  By the way, the conventional swivel-type game machine (No. 4) is relatively high in euphoria, and in order to suppress it, a law on customs business regulations and optimization of business (final revision: May, 1995) Law No. 55 of the 30th) was enforced and applied to the latest spinning machine called Unit 5.

  For example, in the No. 5 spinning cylinder game machine, the play rate (short term, medium term, long term) is regulated very finely by the rules, and in the big bonus game (BB game), the number of game medals obtained, etc. The game ends when the number exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 360 or 480). In the regular bonus game, although it does not reach the BB game, the game ends when about a few dozens are obtained. In other words, the upper limit on the number of payouts and the increase rate of medals in a single bonus game are limited to a low level due to the rule revision.

  In addition, the bonus stock function for continuously releasing bonuses (continuous change), which should be said to be the biggest feature of the conventional swivel-type game machine (No. 4), is also prohibited by the same rule. The device and preference given to the machine itself are lost, and naturally, the gameability and gambling are extremely reduced, and the player (slotter) who has been a good customer is moving away.

  However, even in such a strict regulatory situation, some deregulation has been made, and as a result of this, a new device was developed, and as a result, a slot machine equipped with an ART function (assist replay time function) was developed. . This ART function is a symbol stop operation procedure (the operation sequence of the stop switch and the operation timing for aiming the color of the bonus symbol) for winning the internal winning small role in the high probability replay state where replay is easy to win. ) With a liquid crystal display and voice, and is a function to assist (assist), and is currently the mainstream of the No. 5 slot machine.

  By the way, as AT's original technology developed by the applicant (Japanese Patent No. 4428725), if a single symbol small part is elected internally and the stop button operation procedure is correct, a predetermined symbol (for example, a bell symbol) is won on multiple lines. On the other hand, there is a method of stopping on a small number of lines with an incorrect answer. Then, when the AT is won, the player is notified of the correct operation procedure, and the number of medals obtained is differentiated. Furthermore, since a large number of medals can be obtained without reducing the hand-held medals during RT, it is possible to create a wave of balls and improve gambling.

  In addition, as the applicant's original technology, a bonus with a small number of payouts is frequently won, and the operation procedure and timing of the stop button are notified during AT, thereby releasing the bonus and acquiring a large number of medals. (Patent No. 4679654, Patent No. 4597249, Patent No. 4600944: Called pseudo-probability or neostock).

  However, in this pseudo-probability change technology, when a bonus combination is elected alone, the bonus symbols are automatically arranged regardless of the stop operation. I won to win the bonus role.

  In addition, even if the bonus combination has already been won and the bonus flag is set, if the replay is won at the same time by random lottery, the replay symbol will be drawn preferentially and the replay will always win, so the bonus combination cannot be won. .

  In other words, since the area that should be lost is the winning area for one small role, the lost area is small, and the RT state that is preferable for the player becomes a non-continuous state where the bonus combination cannot be released.

  A first object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine or the like capable of maximizing the number of net increase per game by merging ART technology and pseudo-probability change technology. In particular, it is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine or the like that can give excitement and excitement intensely by allowing the player to continue ART by himself after the end of ART.

  In addition, to achieve the first object, to provide a gaming machine or the like that can reduce the attack by irregular pressing by effectively giving a penalty when an operation other than forward pressing is performed. is there.

  And if the correct answer is made until the second stop operation, the AT technique that the AT small part wins will reduce the strategy, or the red 7 symbol etc. so as to impress the player with the pseudo-probable ART (NS-ART) winning It is intended to provide a technical machine or the like that displays the effect symbols in a straight line on the display window and performs intense heating effects using the effect symbols during the freeze state.

In order to achieve the above object, the gaming machine of the present invention according to claim 1 performs lottery in a symbol display game in which a plurality of spinning cylinders on which a plurality of symbols are drawn are rotated, so that a plurality of spinning cylinders are obtained. The rotating cylinders are individually stopped by operating the corresponding stop switch, and a plurality of symbols are displayed on the display window. As a gaming state of the symbol display game, the probability of winning a replay role by lottery is low. In a gaming machine in which there is a high probability replay state in which the winning probability of the replay state and the replay role is higher than the normal replay state, a notification means for notifying the operation order of the stop switch, While drawing a plurality of small roles and replay roles, only a replay role is drawn in the symbol display game in which the bonus role is activated, and all the plurality of small roles are in an internal winning state. In a symbol display game in which the bonus combination is activated, a selection means, and a control means for stopping a plurality of spinning cylinders at a predetermined position by a lottery result of the lottery means and an operation of a stop switch. Either a small combination or a second small combination that does not exceed the predetermined number wins, and the control means is a symbol display game in which the bonus combination is not activated, and the lottery means is a replay combination or single When the bonus combination is won internally, regardless of the operation of the stop switch, the replay role won or the bonus combination will be displayed in the display window regardless of the operation of the stop switch. Even if the winning combination is won internally, without displaying the operation pattern of the winning replay winning combination in the display window, based on the operation order of the winning replay winning combination and the stop switch, Although thereby winning any one Small Win or the second Small Win, and disengaged by lottery by the lottery unit, regardless of the operational sequence of the stop switch performs stop control for winning the first small win, the notification In the state where the AT function is activated, when the replay role that can win either the first small role or the second small role is internally won, the second small role is played in the first symbol display game in which the bonus role is activated. In the next symbol display game, the first operation order for winning the first small role is notified, and the control means is the first symbol display game in which the bonus combination is activated. A replay combination that can win either the first small combination or the second small combination is won internally, and when the stop switch is operated in the first operation order, the first small combination is won and a bonus is obtained in one game. While terminating the action of the role When the second operation order is operated, the second small combination is won, the next symbol display game is performed, and when the bonus combination is finished, the bonus combination is won internally without changing the gaming state. The symbol display game is played in the game state of either the normal replay state or the high probability replay state.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, a bonus image is won during ART, and the cherry image or the number of cherry winnings is displayed on the display device for the amount of winning the cherry role (AT continuous lottery small role) in the bonus game. After the number of continuous games is over, the screen is switched to the judge screen and the continuous lottery result is notified for each game.

  Furthermore, there are the following effects. According to the gaming machine of the present invention, when the first replay combination is won internally during the bonus game in the AT replay state, only a predetermined amount or less of game media is paid out, so that the next bonus game can be performed. On the other hand, in the normal replay state, even if the second replay combination is won internally, game media exceeding a predetermined amount is paid out, so that a bonus game can be performed only once. As a result, the acquired number can be increased in the AT replay state, and conversely, the acquired number can be decreased in the normal replay state.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, in the case of the AT pressing part of the double pressing order type, the expected number of irregular pressing (other than forward pressing or scissor pressing) can be kept low even if the correct pressing order is 4 choices. Because it can, you can prevent capture by irregular pushing. Further, the expected number of forward presses or scissors presses can be reduced to 1 or less, and the proportion of unrestricted press order can be increased.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, in the variable display game with no bonus inside, the replay role operates with the highest priority. Not only does the number of medals not decrease, but also in the AT replay state, the two-pressing order type AT small part is elected and the pressing order is notified, so that the net increase per game can be greatly increased. Also, since the bonus combination is always won in the AT replay state and the bonus combination always operates without being missed in the variable display game, the bonus combination can be released frequently and continuously.

  And even if the replay role is won in the variable display game after the bonus role is activated, the small role can be won, so not only can the player get a medal, but also after the bonus game ends Can maintain the AT replay state.

Definition:
Replay means a combination of pictures that can be played in the next play without placing a bet in a pachislot machine. The name on the pachislot certification rules (rules for game machine certification and type certification, etc.) is re-game. In addition, as the “replay role” in the claims, a plurality of replay roles 1 to n can be simultaneously won, and any one of the replay roles has the highest priority (from the bonus role or the small role). (Also preferentially).

Basic example:
As an example of the gaming machine or the like according to the present invention, a rotating type gaming machine is taken up, and this example explains in detail the basic configuration and basic operation of the rotating type gaming machine.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a swivel-type gaming machine ((A) is an overall view, (B) is an upper front view), FIG. 2 is a right side view thereof, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a design panel.

  Reference numeral 1 denotes a swivel-type gaming machine body generally referred to as a “pachi-slot machine”, which is roughly divided into a housing 1a containing a rotating drum (drum unit 2) and a front door 1b (see particularly FIG. 2). .

  The front door 1b is a main part that should also be called the face of a swivel-type game machine, and a unique metallic feeling is required for the creation of a high-class feeling and the demand for design, ordinary chrome plating, dark chrome plating, hard By adding gold plating, metalizing (plating), satin tone (plating), etc. to the resin material, the appearance is gorgeous and profound.

  A transparent panel 21 is fitted on the front surface of the front door 1b. A design panel 22 is attached to the front door 1b inside the transparent panel 21.

  The design panel 22 has an upper surface portion 22a to which a display effect device 11 (or a video display device) that performs various effects according to the game situation is fixed with screws, and an inner surface portion on which a window portion 3 (design display window) is formed. 22b and the lower surface portion 22c to which the light emitting display device (display LED block 4) is attached form a bottom surface portion 22d that is bent inward of the housing 1a, and a left side surface portion 22e and a right side surface portion 22f that connect the left and right of the bottom surface portion 22d. As a result, a substantially box-shaped space is formed (in particular, see FIG. 3).

  On the bottom surface portion 22d, there are three-dimensionally projected decorations 23 or three-dimensional electric driving objects 24 driven in accordance with the progress of the game (for example, in relation to an internal winning combination in order to give a sense of expectation). There are motorized toys and doors that can be used for productions, bumpers that move up and down, or ships that swing, etc. However, there are cases where productions that are not related to the internal winning combination are simply performed.)

  The front door 1b and the design panel 22 are formed by integrally molding a resin material with a mold. Generally, the molding method includes injection molding, extrusion molding, foam molding, vacuum molding, and the like, and the resin material is ABS. Various general-purpose resins such as these are used.

  Reference numeral 2 denotes a drum portion (reel drum) built in the housing 1a, which is composed of three drums: a left drum 2a, a middle drum 2b, and a right drum 2c. Inside each of the drums, a rotating part symbol display LED (not shown) is provided, which emits light (turns on and blinks) or turns off according to various effects. That is, each drum is a symbol row that displays a plurality of symbols in a row from top to bottom, and in this case, a variable display game for changing three symbol rows (plural rows) is started. It should be noted that, in the case where symbols are displayed using a liquid crystal display device or the like instead of each drum, the game is a variable display game in which a symbol row on which a plurality of symbols are drawn is varied.

  Reference numeral 3 denotes a window provided in the center of the front surface of the design panel 22 so that the symbols on the reel tape attached to the outer periphery of the drum unit 2 can be visually observed through the transparent panel 21. In this window portion 3, there are a total of five effective lines, which are three effective lines extending in the lateral direction and two effective lines intersecting obliquely, with the left drum 2 a and the middle drum 2 b and the middle drum 2 b and the right It is displayed prominently by a line connecting the drums 2c. However, the effective lines are not limited to the horizontal direction, the diagonal direction, and the number of lines, but are appropriately determined at the design stage, such as a V-shaped shape or a reverse small mountain shape. Note that a rotating part line display LED is embedded below the effective line, and lights or blinks when winning or operating.

  Reference numeral 4 denotes a display LED block provided below the window 3 and on the lower surface of the design panel 22, and as will be described later, an insertion number LED 4a, a medal storage number display LED 4b, a medal payout number display LED 4c, and a replay display LED 4d. And a display LED group of error display LEDs 4e.

  Reference numeral 5 denotes a medal insertion unit, which is a game medal for starting a variable display game for rotating and stopping the drum unit 2 (rotating drum) (a game medium, sometimes referred to as “coin” or simply “medal”). A medal insertion slot is provided. Note that a left light transmitting portion 5a and a right light transmitting portion 5b are provided on both sides of the medal insertion portion 5, and the medal is received by light from a plurality of light sources (for example, LEDs) attached to the lower left and right. When it is impossible to insert, it is red (first color). On the other hand, when a medal can be inserted and displayed for addition for gaming, it is blue (second color). When it is displayed for addition on the medal storage device, it is green. Lights in (third color). However, if a medal cannot be inserted, it may be turned off. In the game software, the game medium is data (for example, the number of inserted medals, credit value data, or token) that means a game medal or a game coin, and an actual game medal or game coin is inserted from the medal insertion unit 5. Is not to be done.

  The medals inserted from the medal slot are counted by a medal sorting device (also referred to as a “selector”, not shown), and the number of medals successfully inserted is added to indicate the number of inserted LEDs 4a of the display LED block 4. Alternatively, it is displayed on the medal stored number display LED 4b.

  An adjustment button 6 is used for starting and releasing a medal storage device (not shown) and paying out the inserted medal and the stored medal.

  Reference numeral 7 denotes a 1-bet button, which is used when inserting one stored medal of the medal storing device in order to play a game. In some cases, the 1-bet button 7 is not provided. Further, on the left side of the 1-bet button 7, a cursor operation in the vertical and horizontal directions and a cross key (not shown) necessary for viewing history information may be provided.

  A maximum bet button 8 is a maximum inserted number (one piece) defined according to the gaming state, such as when a maximum of three stored medals in the medal storage device are inserted to play a game, or during a bonus game. (Or 2 sheets). Note that an LED is provided inside the max bet button 3, and lights up when the max bet button 3 is operable.

  Reference numeral 9 denotes a start lever (a part of the spinning cylinder rotation starting device), which is used when the drum unit 2 is started all at once after inserting a predetermined number of game medals necessary for playing a game. An LED is provided around the start lever 9, and is lit when the start operation is possible. In addition, the start lever 9 is set to a desired setting value selected from step values 1 to 6 (or four step jump numbers 1, 3, 5, 7 and the like) when setting the stage of the payout rate. Used when confirming.

  Reference numeral 10 denotes a stop button portion (also referred to as a “stop switch” as a synonymous name), which is used to stop the rotating drum portion 2. The stop button portion 10 is composed of three button groups (there are rarely four cases) including a left stop button 10a, a middle stop button 10b, and a right stop button 10c, and the drum portion 2 stops while rotating. By operating the button unit 10, the left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c corresponding to each button can be stopped. When the rotation of the three drums, the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, reaches a predetermined speed (about 80 rpm) and the stop button unit becomes operable, the stop button 10a, the stop button The LEDs built in 10b and the stop button 10c are lit. Further, when the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c are used as the direction input means, it is possible to sequentially correspond to the left direction, the upward direction, and the right direction input, respectively.

  11 is a display effect device composed of a color display using a cathode ray tube, an LCD (liquid crystal display), a PDP (plasma display panel) or an FPD (flat panel display) such as an organic EL (electroluminescence), Various video effects related to the spinning game and notification of required information can be performed. Regardless of whether or not dedicated glasses are used, 3D display devices that can display stereoscopic images in 3D display have recently been manufactured at a low cost, and 7D and other effect images are projected in a reach state or a big hit state. Gaming machines that adopt the are becoming mainstream.

  A speaker unit 12 includes four speakers, an upper left speaker 12a, an upper right speaker 12b, a lower left speaker 12c, and a lower right speaker 12d. During changing of sound effects and step set values according to various effects, or the front door A warning sound is generated when 1b is open or when a trouble occurs. When a serious trouble (selector error, hopper error or RAM error, but door opening is not included) occurs, the error display LED 4e is turned on together with a warning sound.

  Reference numeral 13 denotes a game state display LED unit, which is an upper state display LED 13a provided at the top of the display effect device 11, an upper left state display LED 13b, an upper right state display LED 13c, a left middle state display LED 13d and a right middle It is composed of a status display LED 13e, a lower left status display LED 13f, a lower right status display LED 13g, and a middle lower status display LED 13h, and various light effects can be effectively performed. Further, the flashing is repeated as a warning display when the step set value is being changed or when the front door 1b is open or when a trouble occurs.

  Since this game state display LED part 13 (13a-13h) is arrange | positioned so that the outer periphery of the front door 1b may be made to go around substantially the circumference, a colorful light is not interrupted with respect to a player, and an outer periphery collar part is tangled. It is possible to effectively perform a light effect such as turning. In particular, the upper state display LED 13a provided at the upper center position of the front door 1b (upper center position on the front surface of the gaming machine main body) is called a top lamp, and is unique to the internal winning or winning rare prize.

  FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a control circuit system of a spinning cylinder type gaming machine.

  The control circuit system is roughly divided into a main block (main board: a part not enclosed by a broken line) and a sub block (sub board: a part enclosed by a broken line), while the main block performs control related to a game result. The sub-block is responsible for control related to various effects that attract the player's interest and interest, such as game progress and announcement / display of the internal lottery result. Note that the sub-block notifies the stop operation procedure (the operation order and operation timing of the stop button unit 10) of avoiding the small role winning or the falling replay when the ART is activated.

  Reference numeral 100 denotes a main control unit, which is an integrated one-chip microcomputer (for example, LE4280B-PA-G1 manufactured by EL Tech Co.) equipped with a microprocessor with a built-in CPU. ROM 101 for storing a control program describing a control procedure, and RAM 102 (RWM: also referred to as rewritable memory, which is formed with a counter, a register, etc. and temporarily stores information necessary for control. Are also included). As will be described later, even if the power switch 28c is turned off or the power cord is disconnected, the RAM 102 retains all the control data stored by the RAM backup power source that is always supplied via the power connector. However, when the power connector itself is removed, power is not supplied, so the control data is erased (all cleared or reset to 0) or meaningless information.

  The main control unit 100 includes a start SW sensor 110 (start switch sensor 110), a stop button sensor 120, a medal detection sensor 130, and a bet button sensor 140 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. The stage setting unit 150 and the stop setting unit 180 are connected, and the main control unit 100 is configured to be able to receive input signals from these.

  The main control unit 100 is connected to the drum unit 2, the medal payout device 18, and the display LED block 4 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. These devices can be controlled by transmitting and receiving output signals.

  The main control unit 100 extracts one of the random numbers (values 0 to 65535) continuously generated by the built-in random number generation unit 103 in accordance with the operation of the start lever 9 by the player. A lottery is performed, and the drum section 2 (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c) is a three-row (multiple-row) symbol row on which a plurality of (usually 20 or 21) symbols are drawn. The symbol variation display game is started by rotating. For example, in the random lottery, when any of the paying small roles such as bell, cherry, watermelon or plum is won internally, and the player performs the stop operation of the stop button unit 10, the main control unit 100 follows the operation order. The drum unit 2 is sequentially stopped at a predetermined position. As a result, if a predetermined symbol is displayed side by side on any of the five active lines of the window portion 3, a winning is achieved. However, the number of active lines is not limited to five, but changes according to the number of inserted medals, or increases / decreases as appropriate according to design specifications and gaming conditions.

  For example, assuming that the number of game media payouts specified according to the type of winning is 1 bell, 2 cherries, 5 watermelons and 8 plums, only the bell symbol is displayed side by side on the second line. Then, the main control unit 100 pays out one piece as a bell prize. If the specified number of throws is three, even if the bell wins, the deduction will be minus two. Therefore, in the state where the bonus combination and the small combination are simultaneously elected internally, priority is given to the small combination symbol in the internal election. Even if it is stopped on the active line, medals can be consumed. On the other hand, if the bell symbol is displayed side by side on the second line and the plum symbol is displayed on the third line, the main control unit 100 pays out a total of nine bells for one winning bell and eight plums. 6 plus dividends.

  A sub-control unit 160 is connected to the main control unit 100 via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus, and control data (for example, coin insertion data, A lottery result, winning status data, step set value data, data indicating a switch operation state of the step setting unit 150, and the like) are output to the sub-control unit 160.

  Similar to the main control unit 100, the sub-control unit 160 is an integrated one-chip microcomputer equipped with a microprocessor with a built-in CPU, and a ROM 161 that stores a control program describing the control procedure of the entire sub-block; A counter, a timer, a register, and the like are formed, and a RAM 162 that temporarily stores information necessary for control received from the main control unit 100 is provided. This ROM 161 stores a plurality of BGM (Background Music) data. In particular, during the bonus game, a specially arranged BGM is displayed according to the production scene in order to enhance the player's feelings. Selected and played as appropriate. The main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 do not need to be provided separately, and may be a single control unit.

  The sub-control unit 160 has a display effect device 11, a speaker unit 12, a gaming state display LED unit 13, an input SW unit 25 (input switch unit 25), via an I / O port (not shown) and a data bus. The timer unit 26, the operation direction sensor 111, the special button sensor 112, and the door abnormality signal output device 113 are connected, and the sub-control unit 160 receives input signals from these devices and outputs necessary data and signals. Various controls can be performed.

  The sub-control unit 160, based on the inserted number data, the paid-out number data, and the variable display game number data in the control data transmitted from the main control unit 100, the difference display number after initialization and the variable display game digested after the bonus The number of times is counted. When the counted difference number or number of times reaches a predetermined number, an AT stock lottery or a selection game is activated. At this time, the sub-control unit 160 displays on the display effect device 11 "Do you want to start the selected game? If you want to start, please hit the special button repeatedly."

  This AT stock lottery draws the number of stocks in a range of, for example, 0 to 127, 0 is lost, and 1 to 127 is won. If 127 is won, a minimum of 127 consecutive chunks will be determined. However, since AT stock lottery is executed even when AT is stocked, it can be further added and stored up to MAX10000. However, these are merely examples based on design specifications, and are not limited to these numerical values.

  Further, the sub-control unit 160 confirms whether or not to execute the selected game, and when the player hits the special button repeatedly, receives a pulse signal corresponding to the number of repeated hits, and the number of pulses is a predetermined number of 8 times or more. When the number is reached, a selection game lottery is performed to determine a winning number (for example, “0” or “1”). When the selected game is activated, “O or X” or “Left or Right” or the like is displayed on the display effect device 11 corresponding to the left stop button 10a and the right stop button 10c, respectively, and the selection operation is performed to the player. Prompt. For example, when “0” is won in the selected game lottery result, if the player operates the left stop button 10a and selects the corresponding “O” or “Left”, the selected game is won. Then, when the sub-control unit 160 determines that the winning is made, in the subsequent variable display game, until the number of game media increases according to the inserted number, the difference number, or the number of variable display games, or the AT stock lottery (1 to 127). The AT function (a function for notifying auxiliary information by the notification means) is activated for the number of times selected in the (number).

  On the other hand, if the player operates the right stop button 10c and selects the corresponding “X” or “Right”, the selected game is lost. If the sub-control unit 160 determines that it is a loss, the sub-control unit 160 initializes the difference number or the number of variable display games without activating the AT function, and returns to the start. As a result, even if the player is in a humiliated state, if he / she wins in the selected game, he / she can recover more than he has ever lost, or can dare to change, and can expect a one-time reversal. In the above, the two choices are doubled by winning, but if there are five choices, it is possible to return five times when winning, and if the player can select the magnification, the preference is further increased. Increase.

  In response to the start operation of the start lever 9, the sub-control unit 160 executes random number lottery internally, and receives a lottery, replay, small game, or lose result notification, and the lottery result is sent to the player. Before the notification is made, an effect lottery is performed as to whether or not to produce an effect on the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. When the sub-control unit 160 is won in the effect lottery, the sub-control unit 160 selects an effect image to be displayed from the plurality of effect images stored in the ROM 161 and outputs the selected effect image to the display effect device 11.

  In particular, as will be described later, the sub-control unit 160 has an AT stock, and when a push order small combination (a plurality of first small combinations and a plurality of push order prescribed small combinations) is won internally, Assist information (auxiliary information) for aligning the first small role symbol (for example, bell symbol) being selected on the active line is displayed on the display effect device 11. As a result, the player can easily win the first small role.

  Here, returning to FIG. 5, the operation direction sensor 111 outputs a direction signal corresponding to the up / down / left / right directions in which the start lever 9 is operated, and the sub-control unit 160 receives the direction signal, and responds to the direction signal. Various video effects and winning notifications are displayed on the display effect device 11 and sound effects are generated from the speaker unit 12.

  The special button sensor 112 outputs an ON signal (for example, a HIGH signal) when the special button 14 is operated, and outputs an OFF signal (for example, a LOW signal) when the special button 14 is released, and the sub control unit 160 receives the ON signal. Depending on the timing and the number of times the pulse is received (referred to as continuous hitting), various games and video effects, winning notifications, etc. are displayed on the display effect device 11. Furthermore, sound effects such as bomb dropping and machine gun operation are generated from the speaker unit 12.

  The door abnormality signal output device 113 is a device that detects the open / closed state of the door and outputs a control signal to the sub-control unit 160. When the main power supply is ON, an ON / OFF signal is generated according to the opening / closing of the front door 1b. In the state where the main power supply is OFF, it is driven by the power supplied from the sub power supply (backup battery), detects and stores the abnormal opening / closing of the front door 1b when the main power supply is cut off, and then the main power supply Even when the power is turned on, the sub-control unit 160 is notified of abnormal opening and closing when the main power is turned off. As a result, the sub-control unit 160 generates a warning sound when the main power is turned on even if the front door 1b is closed and appears to have no abnormality, so that the manager of the game hall recognizes the abnormal situation. Appropriate measures such as checking and inspection of gaming machines can be taken.

  The medal detection sensor 130 includes a medal passage sensor and a proximity sensor (not shown), and outputs a number of pulse signals corresponding to the number of medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 5. The main control unit 100 receives this pulse signal, and executes counter logic processing at the rise and fall of the pulse signal, depending on the number of pulses in the inserted number LED 4a or medal reserve number display LED 4b in the display LED block 4. Control is performed to display the number of inserted sheets or the number of credits increased by a certain number.

  The bet button detection sensor 140 includes a 1 bet button detection sensor 140a that outputs a pulse signal in response to an operation of the 1 bet button 7, and a max bet button detection sensor 140b that outputs a pulse signal in response to an operation of the max bet button 8. It is composed of two and is separately connected to two ports of the main control unit 100 (not shown in detail). The main controller 100 controls the number display of the input number LED 4a so as to correspond to the obtained pulse signal.

  Further, when the player operates the start lever 9 after inserting a predetermined number of medals, the start SW sensor 110 outputs a start signal, and the main control unit 100 performs random number lottery or the like in response to reception of the start signal. A variation display game is started and a drive pulse signal is output to the drum unit 2. The game performed by operating the start lever 9 once is a variable display game of one game, and the player aims to increase the medal by acquiring a bonus game (big bonus or regular bonus). Repeat the game. Note that the bonus game means, for example, a first-type special combination (RB), a first-type special combination continuous operation, or a second-type special combination continuous operation.

  Then, when the stop buttons 10a, 10b, and 10c are operated during the variable display game, the main control unit 100 stops the rotation of the rotating drum and establishes a predetermined winning combination (the symbols of each rotating drum are predetermined). When the medals are paid out when displayed in a predetermined combination, the payout number is displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c in the display LED block 4, and this is added to the number of credits and the medal. The stored number is displayed on the LED 4b. When the payout operation is performed with the settlement button 6 or when the number of credits exceeds, for example, the maximum number of 50, the main control unit 100 controls the medal payout device 18 so that the required number of medals can be obtained as medals. It is discharged from the payout opening 16 and accumulated in the tray 15.

  Further, the main control unit 100 outputs control data (event data) related to internal winning etc. to the sub-control unit 160 when a replay or small role, especially a bonus, is won internally. When the sub-control unit 160 receives control data from the main control unit 100, the lighting control of the gaming state display LED unit 13 and the control of a speech synthesis LSI (not shown) for generating sound effects from the speaker unit 12 are performed. In addition, various presentation operations such as display control of characters and background video in the display screen of the display presentation device 11 are performed.

  150 is a stage setting unit, and by performing the stage setting operation of the payout rate, which will be described later, the hall side determines the stage value according to the collection status for a large amount of medals released at the event or new opening and improvement of profits. A desired set value can be selected from 1 to 6 (or jump numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, etc.).

  Reference numeral 180 denotes a stop setting unit, and if it is on (or “1”), after the bonus game is over, the total of medals displayed on the inserted number LED 4a and the medal stored number display LED 4b is forcibly paid out and changed. The operation for performing the display game is disabled (stopped), and a warning sound is generated from the speaker unit 12. Recently, there are many slot machines not provided with the stop setting unit 180.

  Reference numeral 25 denotes an input SW unit (input switch unit) for inputting various data. For example, a warning mode is set when a stage setting operation of the payout rate is performed, or a time period during which a warning is generated or not generated. Set up. The warning mode includes three modes: an on state or an off state of a warning generation function, and a timer state in which a warning is generated only during a set time period. The input SW unit 25 includes an initialization switch for initializing the sub-block and a volume switch used for switching the volume of the speaker unit 12, and functions when both are pressed simultaneously. ing.

  Reference numeral 26 denotes a time measuring unit including a radio clock that receives absolute time data from a satellite or the like and keeps accurate time, and continues to output the time measured to the sub-control unit 160.

  FIG. 6 is a block diagram of a control circuit system for controlling the drum unit.

  The drum unit 2 includes step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c for controlling rotation of the three drums of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, and responds to the drive pulse signal from the main control unit 100. When the step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c are driven and the drive pulse signals are continuously supplied to the three phases at the same time, a suction force is generated and suddenly stops.

  The step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c are four-phase 1-2 excitation methods, have a step number of 252 steps / rotation (1.43 degrees / step), and just when the main control unit 100 inputs 504 pulses of the drive pulse signal. Rotate once. The main control unit 100 returns one pulse of each index signal (reference signal or reference position signal) from each of the cylinder sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c formed of photo interrupters provided for each drum. The position of can be accurately grasped. That is, the resolution by one input pulse is 0.714 (degrees / pulse). When the resolution is further increased, the rotational position can be grasped in detail by managing the time from the input pulse to the next input pulse and the rotational speed.

  FIG. 7 is a configuration block diagram of the drum unit.

  Center portions of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, which are thick disk-shaped rotating bodies, are connected to the rotation shafts of the step motors 30a (not shown), 30b (not shown), and 30c, respectively. It rotates in the direction of the arrow shown (ie, from top to bottom). In addition, a left swirl belt 32a, a middle swirl belt 32b, and a right swirl belt 32c on which a plurality of types of symbols are drawn are attached to the outer peripheral portion of each drum. Is established (winning or operating) if the predetermined symbols are displayed on the window 3 along the active line. In addition, the star mark, + mark, plum mark (black circle mark) and triangle mark in the figure are shown for convenience, and are different from the actual ones. 7 symbols, bar symbol, bell symbol, watermelon symbol and cherry A symbol is generally used. In general, the rotator belt is called a reel tape.

  Cylinder sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c (not shown) are provided for each of the step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c, and one index signal is returned from each cylinder sensor for each rotation of the step motor. It comes to come. The main control unit 100 always grasps the symbol number and the rotation angle (24 divisions / design) at the reference position (for example, the lowest position of the window 3) based on the index signal and the number of output drive pulse signals. ing.

  FIG. 8 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  As shown in the illustration, each swirl belt has 21 differently arranged symbols. Big bonus symbols such as “Red 7” and “Blue 7” that act as bonuses, and various small part winning symbol cherry A watermelon, bell, and replay with replays are depicted. It should be noted that the discarded symbols do not constitute any role even when stopped on the active line, and for example, “N” is printed in a light gray circle in order to make the player inconspicuous.

  FIG. 9 is a structural block diagram of the drum unit, and FIGS. 9A and 9B show the state in which the right drum 2c is controlled to be pulled in time series.

  When the main control unit 100 receives the start signal of the variable display game, and the lottery result is won and the winning combination is won internally, the main control unit 100 performs pull-in control for drawing the symbol of the winning combination on the active line as much as possible. Do.

  For example, in the so-called reach state in which the symbols “7, 7” are aligned on the effective line diagonally to the lower right of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b where the big bonus combination has been won internally, 4 frames above this effective line When the symbol “7” is located within (ie, within five frames including the symbol on the active line), when the right stop button 10c is stopped (see FIG. 9A), The control unit 100 performs pull-in control for forcibly drawing the symbol “7” onto the active line and aligning it so as to be a combination of “7, 7, 7” (see FIG. 9B).

  On the other hand, even if one of the winning combinations is won internally by lottery, the player is not in an advantageous state unless a predetermined symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed on the active line. For example, a big bonus game (BB game) does not operate unless it is displayed as shown in FIG. This pull-in control is performed not only on the right drum 2c but also on the symbols of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b. The main control unit 100 performs stop control with reference to a stop table that defines the stop position of each drum in accordance with a random number lottery situation (internal winning or loss).

  In the example of FIG. 9, in the reach state, the symbol “7” of the right drum 2 c is just 4 frames above and is lined up on the effective line as a target of the pull-in control. However, the pull-in control is not limited to four frames, and the number of pull-in frames can be increased / decreased by software control so as to be adapted to the design specifications or legal regulations. In addition, when the random number lottery result is a win in the general game, the sub-control unit 160 assists information (operation sequence and operation order) for stopping the rotation of the rotary drum so that the symbols are displayed in a predetermined combination by the pull-in control. Assist information such as operation timing (AT) is notified.

  FIG. 10 is a configuration block diagram of the drum unit, and FIGS. 10A and 10B show the state in which the right drum 2c is controlled to avoid (or kick control) in time series.

  The main control unit 100 receives the start signal of the variable display game, and when the lottery result is lost and the combination is not established (when all the combinations are not won internally), the main control unit 100 wins or operates on the active line. Avoidance control is performed to prevent the combination of symbols for a combination (bonus, small combination, replay).

  For example, in the reach state (temple state) where the symbols “7, 7” are aligned on the effective line diagonally to the lower right of the stopped left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b without the big bonus combination being elected internally When the stop button 10c is operated in a state where the symbol “7” is located within one frame from the effective line by the “eye press” (for example, this is called “bita press”). A)), the main control unit 100 performs avoidance control for forcibly losing the symbol “7” by moving the symbol “7” one step ahead so that “7, 7, 7” is not aligned on the active line ( (See FIG. 10B). This avoidance control is performed not only for the right drum 2c but also for any of the symbols of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b, and the avoidance control is performed so that an unsuccessful small role symbol does not win. It is like that. These pull-in control and avoidance control (kick-off control) are performed by the main control unit 100 referring to a stop table according to the internal winning situation or by control control by a program.

  FIG. 11 is a timing chart showing the relationship among the index signal, symbol position data (frame data), drive pulse signal, and stop button sensor signal.

  FIG. 11A shows index signals output from the respective drum sensors 31a, 31b and 31c, and the main control is performed so that T1 becomes constant at 0.751 seconds (that is, 79.9 revolutions / minute). Controlled by the unit 100.

  FIG. 11B shows the symbol position data of the rotating drum, and FIG. 11C shows the drive pulse signal.

  The symbol position data is generated by dividing the drive pulse signal, and 1 is subtracted from the data every 24 pulses of the drive pulse signal. That is, with reference to the index signal, the symbol position data is “21” in the range of the driving pulse signal from 1 pulse to 24 pulses, the symbol position data is “20” in the range of the driving pulse signal from 25 pulses to 48 pulses, The symbol position data is “19” when the drive pulse signal is in the range of 49 to 72 pulses, the symbol position data is “1” when the drive pulse signal is in the range of 481 to 504 pulses, and the symbol position data is 21 to 1 Turn around. That is, the symbol position data returns to “21” after “1”.

  The drive pulse signal is a drive pulse of a prescribed pattern that is input to the motor coil in order to rotate the rotating drum in a certain direction, and there are eight pattern numbers of patterns 0 to 7 as can be seen from the figure. When pattern numbers 0 to 7 are repeatedly applied to the motor coils 1 to 4 as this drive pulse signal three times (that is, 24 pulses are input), the rotating drum rotates from top to bottom by one pattern (one frame). To do.

  In particular, the input pulse phase data of the drive pulse input to the step motor is 5-bit data from 0 to 23 for driving the rotating drum by one frame, and pattern numbers 0 to 7 are phase data of the lower 3 bits. Thus, the drive pulse corresponding to the pattern number is actually applied to the motor coils 1 to 4 phase. Therefore, even when only the pattern number is stored in the work RAM (RAM 102), it corresponds to the phase data storage means for storing the input pulse phase data.

  FIG. 11D shows a stop button sensor signal output when each stop button is operated. In the case of this figure, the main control unit 100 recognizes the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “10” (or pattern number “2”) at the rising edge of the stop button sensor signal.

  FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of the left drum 2a included in the drum portion.

  As shown in FIG. 12A, the left drum 2a rotates in the direction of the arrow (from the top to the bottom), and the cherry pattern is placed on any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the three windows 3 indicated by solid lines. When is stopped, a prize is awarded and a predetermined number of game medals are paid out. FIG. 12A shows a state where the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the window 3.

  When the player performs an operation to start the variable display game, the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery. As a result, when the upper cherry (cherry 1) is won, the position (timing) at which the stop button is operated. ) To perform cherry symbol pull-in control (see FIG. 9) or avoidance control (see FIG. 10).

  FIG. 12 (B) shows the possible range of pull-in control. When the stop button 10a is operated at a position four frames above the position where the cherry pattern is just the upper stage, the main control unit 100 3. Stop the cherry symbol at the top of 3 (assuming that the bita symbol is in the upper position). In actuality, it takes about 36 ms to stop, so it is positioned higher by that amount, but for convenience of explanation, it is written in this way. In addition, since it is specified that the stop operation is performed within 190 ms from the stop operation, there is a case where four frames are not slipped.

  On the other hand, FIGS. 12 (C) and 12 (D) show the range in which avoidance control or the like is performed, and the main control unit 100 has the cherry symbol 4 from the upper position even when the upper cherry is won. When the stop button 10a is operated at a position above the frame (that is, a position higher than 4 in FIG. 12A) or a position slightly past the upper position, the position of the upper position or the lower position is increased. Stop the cherry symbol down and make it lose. That is, since the middle cherry (cherry 2) or the lower cherry (cherry 3) is not won, the cherry symbol must be forcibly stopped outside the window 3.

  FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between the left drum 2a, the window 3 and the symbol position data.

  As shown in FIGS. 13A and 13B, the cherry symbols on the left drum 2a are frame number 8 and frame number 19 (see FIG. 8). When the lowermost position of the unit 3 is used as a measurement reference, the main control unit 100 reads the symbol position data “15” and the input pulse phase data “0” to the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “23” or the symbol. When the stop button 10a is operated in the range of the position data “5” and the input pulse phase data “0” to the symbol position data “1” and the input pulse phase data “23”, the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage and a winning is made. . In other words, even if the stop button 10a is appropriately operated, not only winning with a probability of 10/21, but if a winner is notified, an expert can push forward and win with a probability close to 100%. .

  FIG. 14 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on an effective line corresponding to the number of inserted game medals. For example, when three game medals are inserted and the two-paid-out cherry pattern of the left drum 2a is displayed on the window 3, if the upper row is four (2 × 2 lines: the second line and the second line) 4 lines), 2 (2 sheets × 1 line: 1st line) in the middle stage and 4 (2 sheets × 2 lines: 3rd line and 5th line) game medals in the lower stage. However, this effective line is a general one that has been conventionally employed, and there are many irregular lines as described later.

  In addition, when the eight-paid-out bell symbols are displayed on the active line of the window portion 3, if only the middle stage is displayed, it should be 8 sheets (8 sheets × 1 line: the first line) and the upper stage and diagonally down to the right. For example, 15 game medals are paid out (8 sheets × 2 lines but MAX 15 sheets: second line and fourth line). In other words, game media with the number of payouts defined according to the type of winning is paid out in total for the winning amount, but the maximum payout at one time is 15.

  FIG. 15 is a configuration block diagram of the display effect device.

  The display effect device 11 includes a command receiving unit 11a that receives an effect command from the sub-control unit 160, a display effect control unit 11b (including a ROM 11c and a RAM 11d), and a display panel 11e such as an LCD, an organic EL, or an LED. Yes. In this case, the ROM 11c is separately provided in the display effect control unit 11b, but there is no problem even if all the video data is stored in the ROM 161. Therefore, the ROM 11c may be considered as a part of the ROM 161.

  FIG. 16 is an effect pattern table, which associates the relationship between effect commands and effect pattern data stored in the ROM.

  The effect command is composed of 1-byte length mode data and 1-byte length event data, and stores effect pattern data (mainly a moving image but also a still image), which is an effect content. .

  When the sub-control unit 160 receives control data necessary for various controls from the main control unit 100 (particularly, various types of data indicating a big hit, a small hit, a replay, or a loss of the random number lottery result are included), a random number is received. Before notifying the lottery result, an appropriate effect command corresponding to the control data is transmitted to the display effect device 11 side, and the command receiving unit 11a receives the effect command and transmits it to the display effect control unit 11b.

  Upon receiving the effect command, the display effect control unit 11b reads the effect pattern data corresponding to the effect command from the ROM 11c, expands the data in the RAM 11d, and transmits the data to the display panel 11e, thereby displaying the effect image corresponding to the effect command. It is configured to be displayed on the screen.

  17 to 19 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device.

  For example, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Z0 $ 00) as an effect command, for example, the display panel 11e displays the “daytime effect pattern of the low-probability stage mainly indicating a state where there is no AT stock or a state where AT is difficult to win. “0” is displayed (see FIG. 17A). On the other hand, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Y0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e displays the “nighttime” of the high-probability stage that suggests a state where there is AT stock or a high-probability state in which AT is easy to win. The “effect pattern 0” is displayed (see FIG. 17B). Therefore, the player is anxious to display a “night stage” that mainly suggests a high probability state during the game. However, it is also possible to display a “night stage” when there is no AT stock or a non-high probability state, or display a “day stage” when there is a reverse AT stock or a high probability state. is there.

  Further, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ S0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e superimposes “Dracula Castle”, which is an image corresponding to “castle effect pattern 0”, on the blue sky background screen. It can be displayed (see Fig. 17 (A)) or overlaid on the background screen of moonlight night (see Fig. 17 (B)), and then yellow, red or blue bats jump out of Dracula Castle Then, a notification image corresponding to the established combination (small combination or replay) is displayed (see FIG. 17C).

  When the effect of FIG. 17 (B) is developed in multiple stages, it is a sign effect (a fierce hot effect) where there is an AT stock and the expectation of AT release is great. For example, FIG. 18A shows a state in which “Dracula Castle” is enlarged and the iron gate is opened. Then, the door further expands (see FIG. 18B), gradually opens (see FIG. 18C), and the interior of the dazzling “Dracula Castle” is displayed (see FIG. 18D). After that, it develops into a battle between the protagonist and the count of vampires Dracula. If the protagonist wins, there is AT stock, AT release is confirmed, and bonus release is confirmed during bonus internal election.

  From the state where the normal screen of the night of FIG. 19A (same as FIG. 17B) is displayed, the display screen is scrolled to the right, the cemetery is expanded, and the character butler screams “Olya”. Along with the sound effect “Tiroro Lolone”, the character of the hero appears from the grave hole in the center of the screen (see FIG. 19 (B)), or the characters “BONUS” meaning “big hit” are displayed ( (See FIG. 19C). All of these display effects are also executed by the sub-control unit 160 outputting an effect command according to the program.

  FIG. 20 is a conceptual diagram of a general lottery table.

  The lottery table is stored in a predetermined area of the ROM 101, and defines the relationship between the winning combination and the number used for the random number lottery.

  In the case of the rotary type gaming machine of the present invention, the main control unit 100 generates a random value. This random number value is generated at random from 0 to 65535 (m7) in a cycle, and always at random once in one cycle. FIG. 20A is a lottery table used in a normal state (non-RT state). When the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery in accordance with the timing at which the start lever 9 is operated, If it is in the range of m1, the big bonus (BB) is won. That is, the internal lottery is to pick up (extract) one random number value at the time of start operation and to determine the winning combination by comparing with a lottery table.

  Similarly, regular bonus (RB) in the range of random numbers m1 + 1 to m2, cherry in the range of random numbers m2 + 1 to m3, watermelon in the range of random numbers m3 + 1 to m4, bell in the range of random numbers m4 + 1 to m5 The replay is won when the random value is in the range of m5 + 1 to m6, whereas the replay is lost in the range of the m6 + 1 to m7.

  Normally, the numerical values of m1 to m7 are appropriately set in consideration of laws and regulations (wind management law) and game characteristics, but the BB winning probability is about 1/200 and the RB winning probability is 1/400. The probability of winning for cherry and watermelon is about 1/50, the probability of winning for bell is about 1/6, and the probability of winning for replay is 1 / 7.3.

  On the other hand, FIG. 20B is a lottery table used in the high-probability replaying state (RT state). In the replay time, the winning range for replay is widened by α, whereas the lost range is narrowed by α. Thus, the winning probability of replay is set to about “½”. As a result, the probability of winning the replay corresponding to the three-piece payout is greatly increased, but the probability of being lost is lowered. As a result, the expected payout value of game medals is greatly improved or increased during the replay time. . Further, the main control unit 100 can set the expected value of the replay time to a desired value by increasing or decreasing the α value.

  Although a detailed drawing of the lottery table is omitted, there are six lottery tables 1, lottery tables 2... Lottery table 6 corresponding to the stage setting values 1 to 6 of the payout rate and the number of inserted medals (specified number), and the main control unit. Selects a lottery table according to the stage setting value and the number of inserted medals set by the stage setting unit 150, and executes a bonus game and internal lottery of a plurality of small roles in a variable display game. Note that the expected value for winning the bonus game in the internal lottery is generally the lottery table 1 <the lottery table 2 <... <The lottery table 6, so the player pursues the high setting table. However, if it is a three-sheet machine, a lottery table with one medal is not necessary.

  FIG. 21 is a payout table showing the relationship between the combination of symbols and the number of acquired medals.

  BB (Big Bonus) is the title when the BB symbol of “Red 7” is aligned on the active line, and when it is aligned, the number of medals won is 0, and the Big Bonus with flag 1 set in the corresponding flag area The game enters the game (BB game: operation of the accessory continuous operation device) and ends with the payout of 360 sheets.

  RB (Regular Bonus) is the title when the RB symbol of “Blue 7” is aligned on the active line, and when it is aligned, the number of medals won is 0, and the regular bonus is set with flag 1 in the corresponding flag area The game enters the game (RB game: the operation of the accessory continuous operation device) and ends with the payout of 120 cards. Note that these accessory continuous action devices may be either a first-type special accessory or a second-type special accessory, and are appropriately selected according to design specifications.

  When the cherry symbol stops on the effective line of the left drum, one medal is obtained for each effective line. For example, if the effective line is the display determination diagram of FIG. 14, the number is one if the middle part of the left drum is stopped, but if it is the upper stage or the lower stage, there are two effective lines, and the payout is two sheets in total.

  When the watermelon symbols are aligned on the active line, 5 medals are obtained.

  When the bell symbols are aligned on the active line, 8 medals are obtained.

  When the replay symbols are aligned on the active line, the replay in which no medal is acquired is activated, the flag 1 is set in the flag area, and the replay operation is performed by operating the player's start lever 9 to lower the flag (ie, 0). That is, the next game can be played without inserting medals.

  Next, the operation of the swivel type gaming machine configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to a flowchart and the like.

  First, in a state in which the spinning machine is shipped from the factory, as a default, the warning mode is “ON”, the stop setting unit 180 (stop setting switch) is “OFF”, and the step setting value is the lowest “1”. Is set.

  When the game hall side opens the front door of the swivel type gaming machine body 1 and turns on the power switch 28c before the player plays, the power is supplied to each circuit block, and the main control unit 100 will be described later. In step S100, initial check (hardware abnormality check, etc.) and initial setting (for example, writing the stop setting flag “1”, the step setting value “1” stored in the ROM 101 and the initial value of the control data to the RAM 102) are executed. Then, the sub-control unit 160 sets the warning mode to “ON”, and when the front door 1b is closed, the variable display game can be played.

  In this game-ready state, even if the game hall side opens the front door 1b again and operates the input SW unit 25 (operation for simultaneously pressing the initialization switch and the volume switch), the sub-control unit 160 Since control data indicating the stage setting mode of the payout rate has not been received, the warning mode is not changed from the “on state” to another state (“off state” or “timer state”). Therefore, there is a specific effect that Goto and the like cannot easily change the warning mode. The stop setting flag “1” corresponds to “on” for the stop setting unit 180 and “off” for “0”.

  Then, it is assumed that the game hall side is going to change the setting of the payout rate for a grand opening, a new store opening, or an event in this setting state.

  FIG. 22 is a flow chart showing the main operation processing procedure of the spinning cylinder type game machine.

  An employee of the game hall opens the front door of the swing type gaming machine body 1 to turn off the power switch 28c, inserts the setting change key into the setting key switch 28a and turns it to the right to turn it on (FIG. 4). When the power switch 28c is turned on again, power is supplied to each circuit block, and after the initial check and initial setting are executed in step S100, the main control unit 100 performs step In S110, it is determined whether or not the setting key switch 28a is in an ON state.

  If the setting key switch 28a is not in the ON state, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S130. If the setting key switch 28a is in the ON state, the main control unit 100 calls a setting change subroutine in step S120 (transfers to the setting change mode).

  In the setting change mode of step S120, before the game hall side causes the player to play, the stage setting value “6” of the payout rate is input, the start lever 9 is hit once to set the setting value, and the setting key switch 28a is pressed. In the OFF state, the main control unit 100 returns to step S100, sets the set value to “6”, and performs necessary processing such as initial hardware check and initial setting again.

  In addition, when the main control unit 100 outputs control data to the sub-control unit 160 in order to perform initial screen display setting in step S100, the sub-control unit 160 displays ($ Y0 $ 01) as an effect command, for example. It transmits to the production device 11. As a result, on the display panel 11e, “Night effect pattern 1” composed of a screen of the full moon, Dracula Castle and the graveyard is displayed as a start screen (not shown).

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S130 after changing the stage setting value, the main control unit 100 checks for occurrence of an abnormality such as a door open, a hopper error, or a selector error. If there is an abnormality, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S140 and again after the abnormality processing. If the process returns to step S100 and there is no abnormality, the process proceeds to step S150. In particular, the main control unit 100 uses 0 to 5 as the step check value data stored in the work RAM area as the abnormality check (the step set values displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c correspond to 1 to 6, respectively). ), And if the step set value is not within the predetermined range, a warning (“EE” error character display) is displayed by the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. , Light emission and warning sound) are generated, and error processing (abnormal processing in step S140) is performed.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S150, the medal detection sensor 130 or the bet button sensor 140 determines whether or not the player has inserted a quantity of game medals necessary for the game. In step S160, on the other hand, if not inserted, the process returns to step S130 and waits while looping each step until a medal insertion operation is performed.

  When the process proceeds to step S160, the main control unit 100 checks whether or not the player has started the variable display game by operating the start lever. If the game is started, the process proceeds to step S170 and is started. If not, the process returns to step S130 and waits while looping each step until a start operation is performed.

  In step S170, the main control unit 100 executes the main process of the variable display game, performs a random number lottery in accordance with the reception timing of the start signal, and picks up (extracts) the random number value and the current internal state (RT or non-RT). The lottery table is compared to determine whether or not an internal winning is made (see the description of FIG. 20).

  The main control unit 100 transmits a lottery result command and a game start signal to the sub control unit 160, and simultaneously rotates the drum unit 2 to display a plurality of numbers displayed on the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c. The change display game for changing the symbols at a predetermined speed is started.

  As described in FIGS. 9 and 10, the main control unit 100 operates the left stop button 10 a, the middle stop button 10 b, or the right stop button 10 c of the stop button unit 10 to each symbol row (rotating belt). Is stopped, pull-in control for aligning the symbols corresponding to the internal winning combination on the active line, and conversely, avoidance control for not aligning the symbols. Further, when the sub-control unit 160 receives the lottery result command and the game start signal from the main control unit 100, the effect lottery for determining whether or not to perform the effect display on the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game state display LED unit 13. The player is notified of the lottery result of the big hit (bonus win), small role, replay or lose.

  The main control unit 100 determines that a winning combination is established if a predetermined symbol is displayed side by side on the active line of the window 3 in each variation display game of the general game, and a game medal is awarded according to the payout table shown in FIG. It pays out from the payout device 18 and is discharged from the medal payout opening 16.

  Note that in the big bonus game (BB game) in which three red 7s are arranged, the BB game mode is ended when the accessory continuous operation device operates and the acquired number exceeds 360. In addition, in the regular bonus game (RB game) in which three blue 7s are arranged, the RB game mode is ended when the accessory continuous operation device operates and the acquired number exceeds 120.

  And the main control part 100 will return to step S130, and will repeat a process sequentially, after complete | finishing the game main process of step S170.

  In the first embodiment, during the normal game and RT (replay time), the second type BB with a relatively small number of balls is frequently won, and the AT (assist time) function is used to win the push order. Is related to a basic technology (referred to as NS-ART technology, NS means Neo Stock) that greatly improves the net increase per game. Note that the push order small combination, push order replay, and AT lottery will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 23 to 99, but can be used in this NS-ART technology.

  FIG. 100 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  Each swirl belt has 20 symbols in a different arrangement, and the symbols (red 7), “black bar”, “flowers” that act as bonuses (second type BB: the continuous action device for the accessory) are drawn. ”,“ Red Bell ”,“ Blue Bell ”,“ Yellow Bell ”,“ Green Bell ”,“ Cherry ”,“ Watermelon ”, and“ Replay ”in which replays are activated.

  FIG. 101 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of game medals inserted.

  FIG. 101 (B) is an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted, and in order of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c, the first line (middle stage, middle stage, middle stage: center horizontal line) ) Only during normal operation and when the bonus (type 2 BB) is activated.

  FIG. 102 is a payout table at the normal time and at the time of bonus operation.

  When all three reels (or drums) are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the active line (see FIG. 101).

  (1) Bonus 1 (Type 2 consecutive action device): Left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (red 7), right drum 2c (red 7) are aligned on the active line and stopped. Then, the acquired number is 0, and bonus 1 (BB1) is subsequently given (actuated). This bonus 1 ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/1000, the specified number of games inserted in the bonus 1 is 1, and the number of payouts exceeds 14. When the bonus 1 is won internally by the lottery and the bonus 1 flag is set, the bonus 1 can be established. When bonus 1 is won internally, the replay winning probability in the subsequent game is increased to 1 / 1.5, and after the bonus game in which bonus 1 is activated, the initial replay state (replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3). Return to).

  (2) Bonus 2 (Type 2 continuous action device): Left drum 2a (red bell / blue bell / yellow bell / green bell), middle drum 2b (red 7 / black bar / flower) If any one of (Red Bell / Blue Bell / Yellow Bell / Green Bell) or any of 48 types are aligned on the active line and stopped on the right drum 2c, the number obtained is 0 and bonus 2 thereafter. (BB2) is given. This bonus 2 ends when, for example, the winning probability is about 1/10, the prescribed number of games inserted in the bonus 2 is 1, and the number of payouts exceeds 14. When the bonus 2 is won in the lottery and the bonus 2 flag is set, the bonus 2 can be established.

  Bonus 2 is a variable display game in which the bonus combination is not won internally, and is won internally by lottery. If you win alone, any bonus regardless of the operation of the stop switch. 2 It draws on the effective line at 100% and always works. In other words, if Bonus 2 is elected alone, it will not be missed. The reason is that if it is missed during ART, it will be difficult to activate Bonus 2 because replay will be prioritized, so that state will be lost. Because of that. However, if the bonus 2 is won at the same time as the replay combination or the small combination, it can be considered that the bonus 2 is missed, but even if it is implemented in this way, it belongs to the technical scope of the present invention.

  (3) Color bells (Bell 1 to Bell 64): The titles when 64 types of bell symbols (red bell / blue bell / yellow bell / green bell) are aligned on the effective line on each drum, The number obtained is 14 pieces. When a bell is won in the lottery, 64 condition devices of bell 1 to bell 64 are activated or one condition device of color bell is activated, and any one of 64 types of bell symbols is displayed on the active line. Is done. When this color bell is won, regardless of the stop operation sequence or timing of the stop button unit 10, any bell symbol stops on the active line and a winning is always made. In addition, in the case of an AT small part to be described later, four condition devices from among the bells 1 to 64 are set up in accordance with the pressing order.

  (4) Watermelon (FR2): This is a title when watermelon symbols are aligned on the effective line for each drum, and the number obtained is 14. When a watermelon is won internally by lottery, one FR2 condition device is activated. When a watermelon is won alone, the watermelon symbol stops on the active line regardless of the stop operation sequence of the stop button unit 10 and a prize is always awarded.

  (5) 14 cherries (FR3): When all symbols (ANY) on the left drum 2a (other than cherry or replay), all symbols (ANY) on the middle drum 2b, and (cherry) on the right drum 2c stop on the effective line, 14 sheets. When bonus button 1 or bonus 2 is in operation, pressing stop button 10 in sequence (left stop button 10a → intermediate stop button 10b → right stop button 10c or left stop button 10a → right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b) results in 14 A piece of cherry won.

  (6) 15 cherries (FR4): When the left drum 2a (cherry or replay), all the symbols (ANY) on the middle drum 2b, and (cherry) on the right drum 2c stop on the effective line, the number of acquisitions is 15 It becomes a sheet. If the stop button 10 is irregularly pressed while the bonus 1 or bonus 2 is in operation (operation other than the above-described forward pressing), 15 cherries are won.

  (7) Normal replay (replay 1): This is the title when replay symbols are aligned on the active line for each drum, and no medal is earned for this, but the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts Therefore, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When the normal replay is independently won by random lottery, the RP1 flag is set in the flag area and the replay symbol is always displayed. Even if replay 1 is activated, the replay probability does not change.

  (8) RT2 transition replay (replay 2): left drum 2a (replay), middle drum 2b (red 7 / black bar / flower), right drum 2c (watermelon), 3 types of effective lines This is the name of the role in the case of being aligned, and medals will not be acquired for this, but since the medals are automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player Can do. When the RT2 transition replay is independently won in the random lottery, the RP2 flag is set in the flag area, and this replay symbol is always displayed. When replay 2 is activated, the replay probability changes to the RT2 state.

  (9) RT3 transition replay (replay 3): the title when the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (replay), and the right drum 2c (watermelon) are aligned on the active line. On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but since the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When the RT3 transition replay is independently won by random number lottery, the RP3 flag is set in the flag area, and this replay symbol is always displayed. When the replay 3 is activated, the replay probability is changed to the RT3 state.

  (10) RT4 transition replay (replay 4): either (watermelon) on the left drum 2a, (red 7 / black bar / flower) on the middle drum 2b, or (watermelon) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the active line In this case, no medal is acquired, but since the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts, the player can play the next game by operating the start lever 9. When the RT4 transition replay is independently won in random lottery, the RP4 flag is set in the flag area, and this replay symbol is always displayed. When the replay 4 is activated, the replay probability is changed and locked to the RT4 state for a predetermined number of games (for example, 10 games). In this RT4 state, RT2 transition replay and RT3 transition replay are not drawn.

  (11) Single piece 1 (FR1-1): either (watermelon) on the left drum 2a, (red 7 / black bar / flower) on the middle drum 2b, (red 7 / black bar / flower) on the right drum 2c ) If any of the nine types are aligned on the active line and stopped, the single winning combination 1 wins.

  (12) Single-player role 2 (FR1-2): either left drum 2a (red 7 / black bar / flower), middle drum 2b (watermelon), right drum 2c (red 7 / black bar / flower) ) When any of the nine types are aligned on the active line and stopped, the single winning combination 2 wins.

  (13) Single play 3 (FR1-3): either left drum 2a (red 7 / black bar / flower), middle drum 2b (red 7 / black bar / flower), right drum 2c (watermelon) ) If any of the nine types are stopped on the active line, the single winning combination 3 wins.

  (14) Bells (1 to n) of a bell role: Special symbols (falling symbols) displayed on an effective line when a color bell role is missed by an AT small role to be described later, and any one special symbol is When displayed, the replay probability changes to the RT1 state (normal replay state with a replay winning probability of 1 / 7.3). In the initial replay state (probability that the replay is activated is approximately 1 / 7.3) after the setting change or after the end of the bonus game in which the bonus 1 is activated, even if a special symbol is displayed, the RT1 state is entered.

  FIG. 103 is a combination table of condition devices for AT small part (push order watermelon).

  The push order watermelon means that when the operation order of the stop button section 10 (the pressing order of the stop button section 10) is correct, the watermelon small part is always won, while when the answer is incorrect, the bell small part is won. Means a winning combination when winning a one-piece combination. According to the present invention, it can be said that this is an epoch-making technique that has not been achieved in the past in that a watermelon role can be won only after a correct answer to the second stop operation.

  Push order watermelon right 1 has the right push order of right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b → left stop button 10a, and there are eight kinds of push order watermelon roles in the same correct order. This push order watermelon combination stores push order data (right-middle-left or 3-2-1).

  When the push order watermelon right 1 is elected and the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop, the main control unit 100 is on the effective line of the left drum 2a (red bell / blue bell / yellow) because the push order is incorrect. (Bell / green bell) is stopped. For example, when the red bell stops on the effective line, the probability that the red bell stops on the middle drum 2b is 1/4, and the probability that the red bell stops on the right drum 2c becomes 1/4, so 1/16 Only 14 probable matches are possible. Similarly, when the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop, the main control unit 100 does not answer any of (red bell / blue bell / yellow bell / green bell) on the effective line of the middle drum 2b because the pushing order is incorrect. Or stop. For example, when the yellow bell stops on the effective line, the probability that the yellow bell stops on the left drum 2a is 1/4, and the probability that the red bell stops on the right drum 2c becomes 1/4. Only 14 probable matches are possible. In other words, when the push order watermelon is selected, Bell wins at 1/24 (2/3 × 1/16), and the Koboshi eyes that play the role of Bell are effective lines with a probability of 5/8 (2/3 × 15/16). Displayed above.

  On the other hand, when the push order watermelon right 1 is won and the right stop button 10c (correct answer push order) is operated in the first stop, the main control unit 100 stops the watermelon on the effective line of the right drum 2c. When the middle stop button 10b (the correct answer pressing order) is operated in the second stop thereafter, the main control unit 100 stops the watermelon on the active line of the middle drum 2b, and operates the left stop button 10a in the third stop. The left drum 2a is stopped with a watermelon, and a 14-piece watermelon small combination is awarded.

  However, when the left stop button 10a (incorrect pressing order) is operated in the second stop, the main control unit 100 stops any of (red 7 / black bar / flower) on the effective line of the left drum 2a. When the middle stop button 10b is operated in the third stop, any one of (red 7 / black bar / flower) is stopped on the middle drum 2b, and one small combination is awarded. In other words, when the push order watermelon is won, a watermelon small combination or a single small combination wins with a probability of 1/6 (1/3 × 1/2). During ART, the sub-control unit 160 notifies the correct answer pressing order by video or audio. However, the main control unit 100 may notify the operation order.

  The details of the above-mentioned AT small part will be described again with other expressions using FIG.

  The AT small role is composed of a first small role whose purpose is to win a prize, and a second small role group and a third small role group whose purpose is to inhibit the winning of the first small role. In addition, when the AT small combination is elected internally by lottery, nine types of third small combinations constituting four types of second small combinations or third small combination groups constituting one type of first small combination and second small combination group. A winning combination (that is, 14 types of small roles) is in a state where a prize can be won, and according to the operation sequence and operation timing of the stop button unit 10, any one of the 14 types of small roles wins or the second It seems to miss the small role. The operation order of the stop button unit 10 for winning the first small combination is stored in the ROM 101 provided in the main control unit 100 in association with the internal winning AT small combination. Note that the correct operation sequence data (sequence data for drawing the first small part) is usually three sequence data (right-middle-left or 3) if the number of drums is three. 2-1), but since the last stop drum is inevitably determined, two sequential data (right-middle or 3-2) up to the first and second may be used. In other words, this operation order data can be said to be data for winning the first small combination when the stop button unit 10 is stopped for each column when the AT small combination is won.

  More specifically, when the AT small combination is won internally and the first stop operation of the stop button unit 10 is correct, the common symbols of the first small combination and the third small combination are stopped on the active line, Thereafter, when either the first small role or the third small role wins, and the first stop operation of the stop button portion 10 is incorrect, the second small role is determined according to the subsequent operation timing of the stop button portion 10. May win or miss. When the first stop operation of the stop button unit 10 is correct, the first small combination wins when the second stop operation is also correct, while the third small combination wins when the second stop operation is incorrect ( However, it can also be missed.) In the embodiment, the first small combination and the second small combination are described as 14 payouts with the same payout number, and the third small combination is described as 1 single payout. However, the present invention is not limited to this.

  In the AT small combination right 1, the correct push order is the right stop button 10c → the middle stop button 10b → the left stop button 10a, and there are eight types of AT small combinations in the same correct order. This AT small combination stores push order data (right-middle-left or 3-2-1) together with combination data of eight types of small combinations that can be won. For the combination data of the small combinations, the combination of the small combinations may be determined by one flag, or 14 small combinations flags may be set at the same time. It can also be realized by combining them.

  When the AT small role right 1 wins internally and operates the left stop button 10a in the first stop, the main control unit 100 is within the number of frames that can be drawn on the effective line of the left drum 2a because the push order is incorrect. Any one of (red bell / blue bell / yellow bell / green bell) in (generally within 4 frames) is stopped. For example, when the red bell stops on the active line, the second small role group (red bell-red bell-red bell, yellow bell-yellow bell-red bell, green bell-green bell-red bell) for the purpose of hindering winning. , Blue bell-blue bell-red bell) is the only chance to win (red bell-red bell-red bell). If the operation timing for winning the remaining second small combination is not notified, the probability that the red bell will accidentally stop on the middle drum 2b by the subsequent stop button operation is 1/4, and the right drum 2c Since the probability of the red bell stopping is also ¼, the 14-piece combination is only available with a probability of 1/16.

  Similarly, when the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop, the main control unit 100 is within the number of frames that can be drawn on the effective line of the middle drum 2b because the pushing order is incorrect (red bell / blue bell). / Yellow bell / green bell). For example, when the yellow bell stops on the active line, only the (yellow bell-yellow bell-red bell) is likely to win in the second small role group described above. When the stop button is operated thereafter, the probability that the yellow bell will accidentally stop on the left drum 2a is 1/4, and the probability that the red bell will stop on the right drum 2c is also 1/4, so the probability is 1/16. However, there will be only 14 roles. In other words, when the AT small role is elected, the second small role wins at 1/24 (2/3 × 1/16) and the probability of the second small role is 5/8 (2/3 × 15/16). The eyelet is displayed on the active line.

  On the other hand, when the AT small role right 1 is elected and the right stop button 10c (correct answer pressing order) is operated in the first stop operation as indicated by the operation order data, the main control unit 100 moves on the effective line of the right drum 2c. The watermelon symbol of the common symbol constituting the first small role and the three third small roles is stopped. When the middle stop button 10b (pushing order of correct answers) is operated in the second stop thereafter, the main control unit 100 stops the watermelon symbol constituting the first small part on the effective line of the middle drum 2b, and the third stop. When the left stop button 10a is operated, the watermelon symbol is stopped on the left drum 2a and the first small combination (watermelon small combination) of 14-sheet payout is won.

  However, when the left stop button 10a (incorrect pressing order) is operated in the second stop, the main control unit 100 configures the third small role group on the effective line of the left drum 2a (red 7 / black bar / When one of the “flowers” is stopped and the middle stop button 10b is operated in the third stop, the middle drum 2b is stopped (red 7 / black bar / flower) and the third small part (one small part) ). That is, when the AT small combination is won, the first small combination or the third small combination wins with a probability of 1/6 (1/3 × 1/2). During the ART, the sub-control unit 160 notifies the correct pressing order for winning the first small role by video or voice. However, the main control unit 100 may notify the operation order.

  FIG. 113 is an explanatory diagram of an AT winning combination of the two-pressing order type.

  The AT small role 1 is a first small role (watermelon role) whose purpose is to win a prize, and a plurality of types of second small roles (red) that constitute a second small role group whose purpose is to block the winning of the first small role. Bell-Red Bell-Red Bell, Yellow Bell-Yellow Bell-Red Bell, Green Bell-Green Bell-Red Bell, Blue Bell-Blue Bell-Red Bell), and the third purpose of inhibiting the winning of the first small role Multiple types of third small roles that make up the small role group (one of the left drum (red 7 / black bar / flower), one of the middle drum watermelon, one of the right drum (red 7 / black bar / flower) Nine types) can be awarded (see FIG. 113A).

  When starting the variable display game, the main control unit 100 causes one of a plurality of AT small roles to be won internally by lottery, and depending on the lottery result and the operation of the stop button unit 10, the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b Then, stop control of the drum unit 2 is performed so that the right drum 2c (a plurality of symbol rows) is stopped at a predetermined position. The ROM 101 stores the operation sequence of the stop switch as operation sequence data (in this case, middle → left → right or 2-1-3) in association with a plurality of lottery ATs. Further, the ROM 101 has 14 watermelon payouts (predetermined number) as the first small role, 14 color bell payouts as the second small role, and 1 to 1 1 role as the third small role. One payout of the combination 3 is stored.

  The main control unit 100 recognizes or confirms that the operation order of the internal winning AT small part is middle → left → right, and the first stop operation of the stop button part 10 is an operation for winning the first small part. When it is the order (that is, in the case of the middle stop button 10b), the watermelon symbol that is a common symbol of the first small role and the third small role is stopped on the active line. Next, when the second stop operation of the stop button unit 10 is an operation order for winning the first small combination (that is, in the case of the left stop button 10a), the main control unit 100 uses the first small combination symbol. A certain watermelon symbol is stopped on the active line to bring the first small role into a tempered state, and the first small role is awarded in the subsequent stop operation. On the other hand, when the second stop operation is an operation order that obstructs the first small combination (that is, the right stop button 10c), the main control unit 100 stops the third small combination symbol on the active line and stops the third small combination. The role is put into a tempered state. Then, the third small role is won by the subsequent stop operation.

  On the other hand, the main control unit 100 recognizes that the operation order won internally is middle → left → right, and the first stop operation of the stop button unit 10 is the operation order that obstructs the first small role. Frame (that is, in the case of the left stop button 10a or the right stop button 10c), a frame that can be drawn on the active line among the four types of second small symbols composed of red bell, yellow bell, green bell or blue bell. One second small role symbol within the number is stopped. For example, when the red bell symbol stops on the effective line of the right drum 2c, the second small role (red bell-red bell-red bell) is won in the subsequent stop operation, or the second small role is a stubby. The symbol is displayed on the active line.

  The double push order type AT small part has a pull-in rate of 6.25% (1/16) because there are four types of color bell designs of the second small part, but the watermelon and third small part of the first small part One of the winning combinations 1 to 1 is 100 percent (see FIG. 113B).

  As shown in FIG. 113 (C), in the case of the AT pressing part of the double pressing order type, the first stop operation is limited to either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c, and the correct answer pressing order is set to 4 options. However, the expected number of irregular pushes can be kept as low as 4.2. Further, the expected number of forward presses or scissors presses can be reduced to 1 or less. As a result, capture by irregular pressing (other than forward pressing or scissor pressing) can be prevented, and the first stop operation can eliminate the AT small part in the correct pressing order of the left stop button 10a. Since the ratio of small parts in any order can be increased, there is a unique effect that it is easy to produce.

  FIG. 104 is a game state transition diagram.

  The general game starts in the initial state (also referred to as the initial replay state) from the next game after the bonus game of bonus 1 has been completed or the next game in which the stage setting value has been re-entered. The replay probability in this general game is about 1 / 7.3, and in particular, the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) and the RT3 transition replay (replay 3) are not won. The folds must be displayed on the active line. Even if Bonus 2 is won, activated or ended, the game state does not change, so it remains in the initial state.

  When the push order watermelon is elected internally in the general game and the stop action procedure of the stop button 10 is missed and the bell-shaped sword symbol is displayed on the active line, the RT1 state is entered from the next game (continuation game) The number is not defined, that is, infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and all the combinations shown in FIG. 102 and FIG. That is, the game in the initial state and the RT1 state is a game state having approximately the same 1 / 7.3 replay probability, but the normal game in which the player stays is in the RT1 state.

  When RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is internally won and activated in the RT1 state, the RT2 state is reached in which the replay probability has increased to approximately 1 / 1.5. Further, in the RT2 state, the winning probabilities of the two bonus roles and small roles are about 1/3, so the combined probability of the bonus role, small role and replay role is 1/1 (100%) or (65526 to 65535) / 65536 ( The number of lost is about 1-10). Note that the hatched portion in the figure indicates a high probability replay state.

  The RT4 transition replay (replay 4) is a penalty replay that operates when the stop button unit 10 is irregularly pressed or when the operation sequence is incorrect, and is performed when a prohibited operation is performed. When the RT4 transition replay is activated, the game is returned to the initial state after being locked in the RT4 state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3 for a predetermined number of games (for example, 10 games). The RT4 transition replay is also activated in the RT2 state and the RT3 state.

  When the RT3 transition replay (replay 3) is internally won and activated in the RT2 state, the RT3 state is about 1 / 1.5 with the same replay probability. Further, the RT3 state is different in that the kind of replay combination to be won in the RT2 state is different, and there is no losing like the RT2 state, which is advantageous to the player. When the bell-shaped eye is displayed on the active line in the RT2 state or the RT3 state, the state falls to the RT1 state.

  Bonus 1 and bonus 2 can be won in the initial state, the RT1 state, the RT2 state, and the RT3 state. When Bonus 1 is won internally, it stops when the red 7 symbols are aimed at each drum and returns to the initial replay state after activation. In the bonus game after the bonus 1 is activated, when the stop button is pressed in order (left stop button 10a → intermediate stop button 10b → right stop button 10c or left stop button 10a → right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b), If 14 cherries win, and an irregular push (operation other than the above-mentioned forward push), 15 cherries win.

  Bonus 2 is independently won internally, and in this case, regardless of the operation of the stop switch, any bonus 2 symbol is drawn on the active line and is always activated. This bonus 2 does not change (transfer) the replay state even if the internal winning, the symbol is displayed, or the operation is completed. Therefore, after winning in the RT2 state or the RT3 state, the same high probability replay is performed again. You can return to the state. As a result, the bonus 2 can be continuously released while maintaining the ART state. In the bonus game after the bonus 2 is activated, the replay role is drawn in a lottery, but even if the replay role is won internally, the small role is won regardless of the result of the internal lottery (that is, the probability that the replay is activated is 0). ). In particular, the main control unit 100 performs reel stop control so that 14 cherries win when the stop button is pressed in order, and 15 cherries win when the irregular button is pressed.

  FIG. 114 shows an excerpt of a normal payout table.

  FIG. 114 (A) shows only the normal replay (replay 1), RT2 transition replay (replay 2), and RT4 transition replay (replay 4) of FIG. 102, and the operation pattern has been rewritten for easy explanation. It ’s just that. The gaming state is as described with reference to FIG.

  (1) Normal replay (replay 1): A title when replay symbols are aligned on the active line for each drum, and even if replay 1 is activated, the replay probability does not change. The probability that the replay is activated is approximately 1 / 7.3.

  (2) RT2 transition replay (replay 2): This is the title when replay symbols are aligned on the effective line on the left drum 2a (cherry), middle drum 2b and right drum 2c. The game probability changes to the RT2 state (AT replay state). The probability that the replay is activated is approximately 1 / 1.5.

  (3) RT4 transition replay (replay 4): This is a title when the replay symbols are aligned on the effective line on the left drum 2a (watermelon), middle drum 2b and right drum 2c, and predetermined when replay 4 is activated. The replay probability is changed and locked to the RT4 state (penalty replay state) for the number of games (for example, 10 games). In this RT4 state, the RT2 transition replay and the above-described RT3 transition replay are not lottery. The probability that the replay is activated is approximately 1 / 7.3.

  In the RT1 state shown in FIG. 104, when the combined replay combination (normal replay, RT2 transition replay, and RT4 transition replay) is won internally, any of the replay combinations can be operated. The ROM 101 stores stop switch operation order data (order data for drawing in the RT2 transition replay, also referred to as push order data) in association with the combined replay combination. In this case, the operation order data is the first to third order data (middle-left-right or 2-1-3), but the last stop drum is inevitably determined, so the first and the first Two order data up to 2 (middle-left or 2-1) may be used. There are four types of order data, and there are (middle-right-left), (right-left-middle), and (right-middle-left). Similarly to the replay shown in FIG. 80, the four types of composite replay combinations have different types and combinations of the replay combinations that are won simultaneously (see FIG. 114B).

  When the composite replay combination is won internally, the main control unit 100 reads the operation sequence data stored in association with the ROM 101 and recognizes the operation sequence (middle-left-right) for drawing in the RT2 transition replay. First, if the first stop operation of the stop button unit 10 is the left stop button 10a (predetermined first stop switch), the main control unit 100 stops the replay symbol on the effective line of the left drum 2a, and then stops. Regardless of whether the operation is the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c, the replay symbol is stopped on the effective line of the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c, and the normal replay is activated (FIG. 114 (C) left 1st). See case). That is, when the left stop button 10a is a forward push of the first stop operation, since it is a recommended operation order, no penalty is given.

  On the other hand, if the first stop operation is the middle stop button 10b (second stop switch), the replay symbol is first stopped on the effective line of the middle drum 2b (see the case of 1st in FIG. 114C). . If the subsequent second stop operation is the left stop button 10a, the operation sequence up to the second stop operation matches the recognized (middle-left-right), so the main control unit 100 is on the effective line of the left drum 2a. The cherry symbol is stopped (refer to the case of 2nd left in FIG. 114 (C)), and the replay symbol is stopped on the effective line of the right drum 2c by the subsequent stop operation, and the AT transition replay is activated.

  On the other hand, if the subsequent second stop operation is the right stop button 10c, the replay symbol is stopped on the effective line of the right drum 2c (see the case of 2nd right in FIG. 114 (C)), and left by the third stop operation thereafter. When the stop button 10a is operated, the main control unit 100 does not coincide with the recognized operation order until the second stop operation (middle-left-right), so that the watermelon symbol is placed on the effective line of the left drum 2a. Stop and activate RT4 transition replay (penalty transition replay). Further, if the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c, the main controller 100 stops the second stop when the replay symbol is stopped on the effective line of the right drum 2c and then the left stop button 10a is stopped. Since the operation order up to the operation does not coincide with the recognized (middle-left-right), the watermelon symbol is stopped on the effective line of the left drum 2a and the RT4 transition replay is activated. That is, when the stop switch is operated in an order different from the recognized operation order, the penalty transition replay is activated. In other words, when the button is irregularly pressed, the main control unit 100 compares the operation order when the left stop button 10a is stopped, and if it matches, activates the RT2 transition replay. Activate the transition replay. As a result, with an irregular push, RT2 transition replay will only operate at 1/4, and in addition, RT4 transition replay will operate at 3/4, and it will not be possible to escape from the penalty state for 10 games, so it can be captured. No.

  FIG. 115 is an explanatory diagram of a system in the type 2 BB.

  FIG. 115A shows the fifteen cherries (FR4) described in FIG. In the figure, for ease of explanation, cherry symbols are stopped at the lower stage of the left drum 2a and the upper stage of the right drum 2c, but actually, the cherry pattern is placed on the left drum 2a on the first line (on the effective line) (cherry). (Or replay), all symbols (ANY) are stopped on the middle drum 2b, and (cherry) is stopped on the right drum 2c.

  Similarly, the upper diagram in FIG. 115B shows the 14-sheet cherry (FR3) described in FIG. In the figure, the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c. However, in actuality, all symbols (not cherry or replay) on the first line (on the effective line) and all symbols (other than cherry or replay) are displayed on the middle drum 2b. ANY), (Cherry) is stopped on the right drum 2c.

  When the bonus 2 is activated in the RT1 state of FIG. 104 (the normal replay state where the winning probability of the replay role is low), the control unit (the main control unit 100 or the sub-control unit 160) instructs to reversely press (for example, “right” and voice) When the player reverse-presses the stop button 10, 15 cherries are won and the number acquired is 15 (see FIG. 115A). Since bonus 2 ends when the number of payouts exceeds 14, the bonus game is only one game. In this case, since the cherry small combination (AT ceiling count small combination) wins only once, 1 point is obtained. If the player presses the stop button part 10 in order without following the reverse push instruction, 14 cherries will win, but in that case, a large penalty (for example, no point addition and no ART lottery) is given. It will be. The difference in the non-ART state is 12 (acquired 15-specified number 3), which is preferable because the base in the normal state is lowered.

  When Bonus 2 is activated in the RT2 state or the RT3 state of FIG. 104 (ART state in which the winning probability of the replay role is higher than the normal replay state), the control unit instructs to push forward (for example, “Left”, audio and video) When the player pushes the stop button portion 10 in order, 14 cherries are won and the number of acquired is 14 (see the upper diagram of FIG. 115 (B)). Since bonus 2 ends when the number of payouts exceeds 14, the next bonus game can be played without puncturing. If no forward-pressing operation instruction is issued, the player may cause the forward-pressing operation, which is a recommended operation procedure for normal games, to be issued, and the forward-pressing operation is indicated by “sound” and voice and video. May be. In the next bonus game, as described above, the control unit issues a reverse pressing instruction, so the number of acquired game is 15 (see the lower diagram in FIG. 115 (B)). The difference in the number of ARTs is 23 ((acquired 14 sheets−specified number of 3 sheets) + (acquired 15 sheets−specified number of 3 sheets)), and the increased number of sheets during ART is about twice that of normal times. Therefore, the net increase per game during the ART is increased by that amount, and it becomes possible to create a peak of the game, which is very preferable.

  FIG. 116 is an explanatory diagram of effects during ART.

  During the ART mode, an image of hibiscus flowers blooming is displayed on the display effect device 11. For example, when one set of ART starts in 40 games and an AT miniature of the two-pressing order type wins, right → By notifying the player of the operation order, such as from the middle to the left, it is easy to win the AT small role. Further, when bonus 2 is activated during ART, the control unit draws a replay role in the first game and issues a forward push instruction or no instruction. As a result, the player pushes the stop button portion 10 in order to win 14 cherries, and stocks one winning cherry image on the display screen (see FIG. 116A). Note that the cherry small combination may correspond to the AT continuous lottery small combination, and the winning number of the cherry small combination may be displayed as a number. Then, the control unit draws a replay role in the second game and issues a reverse push instruction. As a result, when the player reverse-presses the stop button portion 10, 15 cherries are won, so that one winning cherry image is added on the display screen, so that two stocks are obtained (see FIG. 116 (B)).

  Similarly, when Bonus 2 is activated again during ART, the control unit wins 14 cherries in the first game and 15 cherries in the second game, and adds two cherry images on the display screen. To do. As a result, a total of four cherries are stocked (see FIGS. 116C and 116D). Then, when the ART40 game is digested, the display effect device 11 displays an image in which the hibiscus flower is constricted, and makes a continuation determination of ART (flowering challenge screen).

  In the first game after the end of ART, when the player operates the max bet button 8 and hits the start lever 9, the ART continuation determination is performed. In the determination of the first game, since the hibiscus flower remains constricted, the game is lost, and one cherry is consumed per game and the image is erased (see FIG. 116E). In addition, when the number of winnings of the cherry small role is displayed as a number, the number of winnings may be subtracted. Similarly, the hibiscus does not bloom in the second game, and one cherry image is erased (see FIG. 116F).

  In the subsequent third game, when the player operates the max bet button 8 and hits the start lever 9, a hibiscus flower blooms to notify the ART winner (see FIG. 116 (G)). Thereafter, a new ART40 game starts (see FIG. 116 (H)).

  FIG. 117 is an explanatory diagram of effects during ART.

  117 (A) to 117 (G) are the same as FIGS. 116 (A) to 116 (G), and description thereof is omitted.

  Even if the continuation of ART is confirmed in FIG. 117 (G), the winning cherry small part remains, and when the player operates the max bet button 8, an image in which the hibiscus flower is once constricted is displayed. A mode-up determination is performed (see the butterfly flowering challenge screen in FIG. 117 (H)). When the player operates the start lever 9, a mode-up determination is made. If the player loses, the ART40 game shown in FIG. 116 (H) starts. The mode up winning is notified (see FIG. 117 (I)). Then, the butterfly ART mode is entered and 100-game ART is started (see FIG. 117 (J)). In the butterfly ART mode, the number of games is increased each time a small role, rare small role, bonus, or the like is won, and the ART game continues indefinitely. When the number of games reaches 0, the butterfly ART mode ends and a new ART40 game starts (see FIG. 116 (H)).

  The ART continuous lottery and the mode-up lottery described above may be automatically performed by the control unit when the cherry small combination wins (that is, prior lottery determination). In this case, the degree of expectation can be expressed by displaying the cherry symbol or the periphery of the winning third game in rainbow color.

  On the other hand, if a player obtains a random number value or counter value at any timing when the player operates the max bet button 8, the start lever 9 or the stop button unit 10, and executes a lottery, it can give a sense of self-help. Players get enthusiasm and can feel super hot when winning.

  The second embodiment is a related invention obtained by improving the first embodiment.

  FIG. 105 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  In each swirl belt, only the left drum 2a is different, the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c are drawn in the same 20 patterns, and the bonus (second type BB: accessory continuous operation device) is activated. “White 7”, the symbol “Red 7” for shifting the gaming state to RT3, and six rhombus symbols (that is, six different symbols) of red blue green white purple tea are drawn. Among these diamond-shaped symbols, when a predetermined symbol is displayed on the active line, the second type BB (continuous action device), various replays (no RT fluctuation or various RT transition replays), small role And the push order small combination operates or wins. On the other hand, when the RT1 transition replay is operated or the small combination of the push order is lost and the small combination symbol is displayed on the active line, the state falls to the normal state (RT1 state).

  The “red 7” symbol and the “white 7” symbol also serve as “rendering symbols”. In the freeze state after the start lever 9 is operated until the stop switch is operable, the stop button unit 10 is operated. In the meantime, the main control unit 100 uses the drum unit 2 to perform, for example, a super-at-reel effect in which, for example, three “red 7” symbols and “white 7” symbols are aligned.

  The main control unit 100 determines the number of games (for example, 300 games) or the number of sets (for example, 10 sets for one set of 50 games) to be in the AT state by lottery. Then, when the number of games is 300, the main control unit 100 refers to the gaming state of the variable display game (game) and aligns the three “red 7” symbols in a straight line three times in a straight line and once. Is displayed as 50 games, the second time as 100 games, and the third time as 150 games, and finally “300 games acquired” is displayed on the display effect device 11. Further, when the number of sets is 10, the main control unit 100 similarly aligns the three “red 7” symbols 10 degrees diagonally or horizontally, and finally displays “10 sets acquired” on the display effect device 11. To do. This gaming state is the first game or the end game of the bonus game, or the first game in which the RT state has changed, and does not refer to the winning combination or stop position of the previous game. Therefore, after the bonus is activated, if the symbol is forcibly rotated by rotating the reel, the “Red 7” symbol cannot be aligned.

  FIG. 106 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of game medals inserted.

  FIG. 106 (B) is an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted, and the first line (middle stage, middle stage, middle stage: center horizontal line in the order of left drum 2a, middle drum 2b and right drum 2c). ) Only during normal operation and when the bonus (type 2 BB) is activated. That is, in the case of this embodiment, the number of inserted sheets is always 3, and the effective line is only the first line.

  FIG. 107 is a payout table at the normal time and at the time of bonus operation.

  When all three reels (or drums) are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the active line (see FIG. 106).

  (1) Bonus 1 (second-type accessory continuous operation device): left drum 2a (white 7), middle drum 2b (white 7), right drum 2c (white 7) aligned on the active line and stopped Then, the acquired number is 0, and bonus 1 (BB1) is given thereafter. This bonus 1 ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/1000, the prescribed number of games inserted in the bonus 1 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 14. When the bonus 1 is won internally by the lottery and the bonus 1 flag is set, the bonus 1 can be established. This bonus 1 is a variable display game in which the bonus combination is not internally elected, and the internal winning is made independently by lottery. When it is elected alone, the stop switch is aimed at 7 white symbols on all reels. The above operation can be established. Therefore, the player aims at white 7 as a DDT point and performs a stop operation. When the combination of symbols for which bonus 1 is activated is displayed, the next game is changed to a bonus game (bonus gaming state), but the main control unit 100 is the first game (one game) that has shifted to this gaming state. Referring to or recognizing that it is an eye), a super-at-reel effect is performed to align the “white 7” symbols in a straight line.

  When bonus 1 is won internally, the replay probability changes to about 1/3, and when the bonus game ends, the initial state is restored and the ART is fixed.

  (2) Bonus 2 (Type 2 consecutive action device): The left drum 2a has either (Rhombus (red) / Rhombus (blue) / Rhombus (yellow) / Rhombus (brown)) or Rhombus on the middle drum 2b When (green) and four types of diamonds (green) on the right drum 2c are aligned and stopped on the active line, the acquired number is 0 and bonus 2 (BB2) is subsequently given. This bonus 2 ends when, for example, the winning probability is about 1/10, the specified number of games inserted in the bonus 2 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 14. When the bonus 2 is won in the lottery and the bonus 2 flag is set, the bonus 2 can be established.

  This bonus 2 is basically a variable display game in which the bonus combination is not won internally, and is won internally by lottery. If you win alone, regardless of the operation of the stop switch, The bonus 2 design is always pulled in on the active line at 100%. In other words, when Bonus 2 is elected alone, it always works, but when it is designed so that Bonus 2 can be won at the same time as a replay role or small role (a winning role that has priority over the bonus), it is naturally considered that it does not work immediately. It is done.

  When the combination of symbols for which Bonus 2 is activated is displayed, the red 7 symbols are always aligned outside the frame of the display window (one above the top row), and the bonus game (bonus game) The main control unit 100 refers to or recognizes that it is the first game (the first game) that has shifted to this gaming state, and makes a “red 7” symbol in a straight line. “7RUSH” (referred to as “7 rush”) is performed to notify the AT winning.

  Even if the bonus 2 is won internally, even if a symbol is displayed or the operation is completed, the replay state is not changed (shifted). Therefore, after the bonus 2 game is played in the RT2 state to the RT5 state, the same is repeated again. Return to the high probability replay state. As a result, the bonus 2 can be continuously released while maintaining the ART state. In the bonus game after the bonus 2 is activated, the replay role is drawn in a lottery, but even if the replay role is won internally, the small role is won regardless of the result of the internal lottery (that is, the probability that the replay is activated is 0). ). In particular, the stop button is pushed in order according to the replay combination won internally or the combination of replays won simultaneously (left stop button 10a → middle stop button 10b → right stop button 10c or left stop button 10a → right stop button 10c → middle. In the case of the stop button 10b), the winning small combination (14 or 15) is changed to make a difference in the number of payouts. This revolutionary new technology can greatly increase the number of net increase.

  (3) Normal replay (ordinary replay): This is a title when a predetermined replay symbol (colored diamond combination symbol) is displayed on the active line for each drum. Since the medals are automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. Normal replay includes two types of normal replay A and normal replay B, and even if these normal replays are activated, the replay probability (RT state) does not change.

  (4) RT1 transition replay (replay 1): This is a title when a predetermined replay symbol (colored diamond combination symbol) is displayed on the active line for each drum, and no medal is obtained for this. However, medals are automatically inserted before the game starts, and the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. The RT1 transition replay is won at the same time as another replay (for example, normal replay or RT3 transition replay) in the RT2 state to be described later, and other replays are activated when the pressing order is correct. Is activated, and the replay probability falls to the RT1 state (the normal replay state in which the replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3). In other words, it is a penalty replay not to capture.

  (5) RT2 transition replay (replay 2): This is the role name when a predetermined replay symbol (colored rhombus combination symbol) is displayed on the active line for each drum, and no medal is obtained for this. However, medals are automatically inserted before the game starts, and the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When the RT2 transition replay is activated, the replay probability changes to the RT2 state of about 1 / 1.5.

  (6) RT3 transition replay (replay 3): The title when (red 7) on the left drum 2a, (red 7) on the middle drum 2b, (red 7) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the active line On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but since the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When the RT3 transition replay is activated, the replay probability is changed to the RT3 state. When the combination of symbols for which the RT3 transition replay is to be activated is displayed, the RT3 state is entered from the next game, but the main control unit 100 is the first game (first game) that has transitioned to this gaming state. By referring to or recognizing a certain thing, an intense-reel effect is performed in which “Red 7” symbols are aligned.

  (7) RT4 transition replay (replay 4): The title when the rhombus (white) on the left drum 2a, the rhombus (purple) on the middle drum 2b, and the rhombus (purple) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the active line On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but since the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. It should be noted that three “red 7” symbols are displayed in a horizontal row in the lower part of the drum section, and the player feels as if “red 7” has won, so there is no sense of incongruity. When the RT4 transition replay is activated, the replay probability is changed to the RT4 state. When the combination of symbols for which the RT4 transition replay is activated is displayed, the RT4 state is entered from the next game, but the main control unit 100 is the first game (first game) that has entered the gaming state. By referring to or recognizing a certain thing, an intense-reel effect is performed in which “Red 7” symbols are aligned.

  (8) RT5 transition replay (replay 5): Name when the rhombus (purple) on the left drum 2a, the rhombus (white) on the middle drum 2b, and the rhombus (white) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the active line On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but since the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. It should be noted that three “Red 7” symbols are displayed in a horizontal row on the upper part of the drum section, and the player feels as if “Red 7” has won, so there is no sense of incongruity. When the RT5 transition replay is activated, the replay probability is changed to the RT5 state. When the combination of symbols for which the RT5 transition replay is activated is displayed, the RT5 state is entered from the next game, but the main control unit 100 is the first game (first game) that has entered this gaming state. By referring to or recognizing a certain thing, an intense-reel effect is performed in which “Red 7” symbols are aligned.

  (9) RT6 transition replay (replay 6): This is the title when the left drum 2a has a rhombus (purple), the middle drum 2b has a rhombus (white), and the right drum 2c has a rhombus (white) on the active line. On the other hand, no medal is acquired, but since the medal is automatically inserted before the game starts, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When the RT6 transition replay is activated, the replay probability changes to the RT6 state (the replay winning probability similar to the normal replay state is 1 / 7.3). This RT6 state is a so-called chance state, and although the replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3, the above-mentioned RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay are drawn, and if winning, the state changes from RT3 to RT5, and the ART state It becomes.

  (10) Color diamond small combination (non-pressing order small combination): This is the name of a combination when a predetermined color rhombus symbol (color diamond combination symbol) is displayed on the active line on each drum. It becomes a sheet. When the color rhombus small combination is won internally by lottery, regardless of the stop operation order and timing of the stop button unit 10, any one of the 64 types of color rhombus symbols stops on the active line and always wins.

  (11) AT color diamond small combination (push order small combination): When the operation order of the stop button portion 10 is correct (the push order of the stop button portion 10 matches the push order data), a specific color rhombus small combination (for example, 3 rhombuses (green)) must be awarded, but in the case of incorrect answers, when 64 types of colored rhombus small roles are aligned and prized, or when an eye is displayed, or a single role is awarded Means a winning role. Since it is the same principle as the AT small part (push order watermelon) described in FIG. 103, the description is omitted.

  (12) One-piece small combination 1 to one small-piece combination 3: This is a combination of names when a predetermined colored rhombus design (combination of colored rhombus) is displayed on the active line on each drum. (See FIG. 103).

  (13) Two kinds of small and medium roles 1: Names when a predetermined colored rhombus pattern (combination pattern of colored rhombus) is displayed on the active line on each drum, and the acquired number is 14. However, during normal games, only about 1 / 60,000 will be won.

  (14) Two types of small and medium roles 2: Names when the predetermined color rhombus symbols (color rhombus combination symbols) are displayed on the effective line on each drum, and the number obtained is 15. However, during normal games, only about 1 / 60,000 will be won.

  (15) Coordinates of AT color rhombus small part (1-n): A special symbol (falling pattern) displayed on the effective line when the AT color rhombus small part is missed When two special symbols are displayed, the replay probability changes to the RT1 state (normal replay state with a replay winning probability of 1 / 7.3). Note that even if this special symbol is displayed in the initial replay state where the setting is changed or after the end of the bonus game in which bonus 1 is activated, the state shifts to the RT1 state.

  FIG. 108 is a game state transition diagram.

  The general game starts in the initial state (also referred to as “initial replay state”) from the next game after the bonus game of bonus 1 has been completed or the next game in which the stage setting value has been re-entered. In this general game, the replay probability is about 1 / 7.3, and in order to get out of this state, the above-mentioned small part of the push order must be displayed on the active line. Also, even if Bonus 2 is won, activated (symbol display), or ended, the gaming state does not change, so it remains in the initial state.

  In the general game, when the push order small combination wins internally and the stop operation procedure (order or timing) of the stop button 10 is mistaken, if the symbol is displayed on the active line, the RT1 state is entered from the next game. (The number of continuation games is not fixed. In other words, it is infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and random numbers are drawn including all the combinations shown in FIG. That is, the game in the initial state and the RT1 state is a game state having approximately the same 1 / 7.3 replay probability, but the normal game in which the player stays is in the RT1 state.

  When the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is activated by internal winning in the RT1 state, the RT2 state (preparation state) is reached in which the replay probability has increased to about 1 / 1.5. Further, when the normal replay B and the RT2 transition replay (preparation replay) are simultaneously internally won in the RT1 state, either the normal replay B or the RT2 transition replay is operated according to the stored push order information (push order data). For example, if the pressing order information is “2-1-3”, a stop operation in the order of the middle stop button 10b → the left stop button 10a → the right stop button 10c activates the RT2 transition replay, but a different stop operation. Is performed, the normal replay B is activated. In this RT1 state, although the winning probability is a low probability of about 1/3000, the RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay, which will be described later, and the RT6 transition replay with a winning probability of about 1/200 are won. Can be moved to a zone.

  In the RT2 state, the winning probability of two bonus roles and small roles is about 1/3, so the combined probability of bonus roles, small roles and replay roles is 1/1 (100%) or (65526-65535) / 65536 (losing The number is about 1-10). Note that the hatched portion in the figure indicates a high probability replay state.

  In this RT2 state, RT1 transition replay (falling replay) and RT3 transition replay (AT replay) are won at the same time, and either RT1 transition replay or RT3 transition replay is activated according to the stored push order information (push order data). Let For example, if the push order information is “3-2-1”, a stop operation in the order of right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b → left stop button 10a activates RT3 transition replay, while different stop operations are performed. When done, activate RT1 transition replay. Also, even if the push order small combination is displayed, it falls to the RT1 state, so in the ART state, the correct push order is notified (navigated).

  When the RT3 transition replay is activated in the RT2 state, the three red 7 symbols are displayed in alignment with the central horizontal line, so that the player has a very hot impression similar to the bonus winning. In addition, when the RT3 transition replay is activated, the main control unit 100 refers to or recognizes that the next game is the first game in the RT3 state, and performs a freeze effect using the drum unit 2. For example, the number of games or sets to be placed in the ART state is determined by lottery, and the drum unit 2 (a plurality of symbol rows) is changed or rotated based on the determination result, and the red 7 symbols are set to the side or diagonal line for the number of sets. Just align. Thereby, the freeze effect using the reel is performed without referring to the winning combination and stop position of the previous game. Similarly, when the bonus 1 or the bonus 2 is activated, the intense game freeze effect is performed by referring to or recognizing that the next game is the first game in the BB1 state or the BB2 state (details will be described later).

  The RT3 state after the RT2 transition replay operation has a replay probability of about 1 / 1.5 as in the RT2 state, but the replay type to be selected is different from the RT2 state, and the normal replay B, RT4 transition replay and RT5 transition The replay is selected by lottery, and the RT1 transition replay is not activated.

  When the RT4 transition replay is activated in the RT3 state, the three red 7 symbols are displayed in a line with the lower horizontal line. Similarly, when the RT5 transition replay is activated in the RT3 state, the three red 7 symbols are displayed together in the upper horizontal line. When the RT4 transition replay or the RT5 transition replay is activated, the main control unit 100 refers to or recognizes that the next game is the first game in the RT4 state or the RT5 state, and uses the drum unit 2 to generate heat. Perform freeze production. In this RT4 state, normal replay B, RT3 transition replay, and RT5 transition replay are selected by lottery. In the RT5 state, the normal replay B, the RT3 transition replay, and the RT4 transition replay are selected by lottery. In both states, the RT1 transition replay is not activated.

  When the assist function is activated in the RT3 state to the RT5 state, a so-called ART state is established, and it is possible to play a game without reducing medals. When the AT color rhombus winning combination is won in the ART state, the main control unit 100 notifies the player of the pushing order for winning, so that a medal can be easily obtained. On the other hand, if the pressing order is not notified, the AT color rhombus small part is missed with a high probability (about 5/6), and at that time, the eyelet is displayed and falls to the RT1 state. In addition, Bonus 2 is frequently won at around 1/10, and up to 23 cards in 2 games during BB2, so the net speed increase (about 4 cards / game) that could not be realized until now with the No. 5 Cylinder machine ) Can be achieved.

  When the RT6 transition replay is activated in the RT1 state, the RT6 state is entered from the next game. In this RT6 state, the replay probability is about 1 / 7.3 as in the RT1 state, but the replay type to be selected is different from the RT1 state, and the normal replay A, RT3 transition replay, RT4 transition replay and RT5 transition replay are performed. The RT1 transition replay is not activated. The RT6 state is a so-called chance zone, and only the predetermined number of games (for example, 30 games) or the number of games determined by lottery is set to the AT state. . Also, if RT3 transition replay, RT4 transition replay or RT5 transition replay is elected during the chance zone, it will be in the RT3 state to RT5 state and it will be able to attract ART by itself, so the player can put power into the start lever It is a moment.

  Bonus 1 and bonus 2 can be won in the initial state and in all the RT1 to RT6 states. In the case of bonus 1, the BB1 game returns to the initial state after the end, while in the case of bonus 2, the replay probability is not changed at all. Then, after the BB2 game ends, the original state is restored. Note that the RT1 state is a normal replay state, and the RT2 to RT5 states are AT replay states.

  FIG. 109 is a correspondence table of small roles winning in the BB2 bonus game.

  The winning combination at the left end indicates a replay combination to be drawn during BB2. In the initial state and each game state from RT1 state to RT6 state, when the stop button part 10 is pushed forward during the bonus game of BB2 according to the combination of the replay combination won internally or the replay combination selected simultaneously, the right end is shown. Since 14 small roles (predetermined quantity) or 15 small roles are won, the bonus game ends in one or two games, and a minimum of 15 to a maximum of 29 medals (game media: pachinko balls or tokens) Is good). In addition, if the stop button unit 10 is operated by other than forward pressing, 15 small roles are always won in the bonus game (variable display game) in BB2. In other words, if a 14 small winning combination (predetermined quantity) is won in the first game and a 15 small winning combination is won in the second game, a maximum of 29 medals can be obtained, so the net increase speed is the highest. In addition, in the bonus game in BB2, it is also possible to win either a 14-piece small combination or a 15-sheet small combination according to the operation order of the stop button unit 10. In this case, the operation order of the stop button unit 10 is notified during the AT, and 14 small roles are won in the first game and 15 small roles are won in the second game.

  When the bonus game of BB2 is performed in the initial state, the normal replay A (second replay role) is won at 1 / 7.3, but otherwise it is lost. It should be noted that during the BB2, no small role is drawn, but all the small roles are in an internal winning state. In this initial state, regardless of the replay lottery result (winning or losing), pressing the stop button will always win 15 small roles, so BB2 ends in one game and the net increase is 12 (payout medal) 15 sheets-3 inserted medals).

  Similarly, in the RT1 state (normal replay state), the normal replay A or RT2 transition replay (both in the second replay role) is internally won at 1 / 7.3, and the stop button unit 10 is pressed forward and backward (anomalous push). ), 15 small roles win, so BB2 ends in one game. In addition, each of RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay (both corresponding to the first replay combination in the normal replay state) wins an internal win at 1/3000, and in that case, 14 small roles win by pushing forward, BB2 does not end with one game and the second game is played. Although the RT1 state is non-AT, if any of RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay is internally won in the first game of BB2, the control unit (the main control unit 100 and / or the sub control unit 160) pushes forward. Suggest (or instruct or not instruct) and instruct the right push on the second game. In addition, when any of RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay is internally won during BB2, the intense AT effect is performed and AT is determined. Note that the first replay role and the second replay role described above may differ only in the type of the replay role won internally, but for example, the 10 replay roles shown in FIG. The combination of roles may be different.

  Furthermore, when the RT6 transition replay (second replay combination) is internally won at 1/200, 15 small combinations are won by pressing forward, so BB2 ends in one game. As a result, in the RT1 state, the net increase can be limited to 12 sheets with a probability of 999/1000. In other words, even if the BB2 is frequently won in the RT1 state which is the normal gaming state, there is a specific effect that the payout can be forcibly kept low.

  Similarly, in the RT2 state, the RT1 transition replay or RT3 transition replay (both in the first replay role) is an internal winning (may be the simultaneous winning of both replays) at 1 / 1.5, and pushes forward (first operating procedure). In this case, BB2 does not end with one game and the second game is played. However, if a right push (second operation procedure) is performed in the first game, 15 small roles are won, and in this case, BB2 ends in one game.

  If the AT is in the RT2 state during AT (so-called ART), the control unit suggests a forward push in the first game and instructs a right push in the second game. On the other hand, if it is non-AT in the RT2 state, even if the 14th small combination can be won by pushing forward in the first game, a right push is instructed and BB2 is forcibly terminated in one game. If the player presses the button against this right-pressing instruction, the second game can be played. However, in that case, the control unit gives a large penalty such as not performing an ART lottery. As a result, it is negative for the player.

  On the other hand, in the RT2 state, 1/3 is lost, and in that case, BB2 ends in one game. As a result, if BB2 is elected during the AT in the RT2 state, a net increase of about 19.3 medals (23 × 2/3 + 12 × 1/3) can be expected. Further, since a right push is instructed during non-AT, the net increase is 12 sheets, and it is possible to make a large difference in the number of payouts during AT and during non-AT. In other words, in addition to the ART technology that only increases with the conventional push order small part, by providing the BB2 having the AT small part function, the net acceleration rate can be significantly improved during the ART. effective.

  Similarly, in RT3 state, normal replay B (first replay combination) is elected internally at 1 / 1.5, and 14 small roles are won by pushing forward. In this case, BB2 ends in one game. Without a second game. The RT3 state is generally an ART state, and the control unit suggests a forward push in the first game of BB2, and instructs the right push in the second game. In addition, each of RT4 transition replay or RT5 transition replay (both first replay roles) wins an internal winning at 1/200, and the control unit gives the same instruction. On the other hand, in the RT3 state, losing occurs at 1/3, and BB2 ends in one game. As a result, if BB2 wins during the AT in the RT3 state, a net increase of about 19.3 medals can be expected. Since the RT4 state and the RT5 state differ from the RT3 state only in the type of RT transition replay that is won internally, the above description is cited.

  Similarly, in the RT6 state, the normal replay A (second replay combination) wins internally at 1 / 7.3, and the 15 small combinations win by pressing forward, so BB2 ends in one game. Also, each of RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay (both first replay roles) wins an internal win at 1/200, and in this case, 14 small roles win by pushing forward, so BB2 ends in one game Without a second game. Although the RT1 state is non-AT, if any of RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay is internally won in the first game of BB2, the control unit suggests a forward push and instructs the right push in the second game. In addition, when any of RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay is internally won during BB2, the intense AT effect is performed and AT is determined.

  FIG. 110 is a normal game outline diagram.

  The main control unit 100 performs all of the ART lottery, and controls the effects by the main reels (the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c) according to the lottery result. The ART lottery opportunities are (1) 2 bonuses, (2) 1 bonus (white 7), and (3) Red 7 (when RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay is activated).

  The sub-control unit 160 displays a normal screen on the display effect device 11, and when the main control unit 100 activates the bonus 2, a chance screen is displayed and the start lever 9 of the next game is started (lever ON). The main control unit 100 performs a freeze effect by the main reel. When ART is elected, it shifts to ART, while ART is lost and returns to the normal screen. When the main control unit 100 activates the bonus 1, the sub control unit 160 displays a large chance screen, and thereafter displays and operates in the same manner. When the main control unit 100 activates the RT3 transition replay to the RT5 transition replay and aligns red 7, the ART is determined.

  FIG. 111 is a schematic diagram of the chance effect.

  The sub-control unit 160 displays a chance screen when the main control unit 100 activates the bonus 2 at the third stop (see FIG. 111A). When the combination of symbols for which bonus 2 is activated is displayed, the main control unit 100 recognizes that the red 7 symbols are aligned in a straight line outside the frame of the display window (one above the upper level). Yes. The main control unit 100 refers to the first game (first game) that has shifted to this gaming state, performs a freezing effect by the main reel at the start operation of the start lever 9 of the next game, and the stop button unit 10 Disable the operation.

  The main control unit 100 causes the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b to be pseudo-stopped to the center line after rotating the drum unit 2 a predetermined number of times, and the sub-control unit 160 synchronizes with this rotation and stop. The display effect device 11 is made to stop the red 7 symbol. Further, during the pseudo stop of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b, the red 7 symbols vibrate up and down (see FIG. 111 (B)). If ART is unsuccessful, the red 7 symbol of the right drum 2c vibrates and stops at the lower stage, the red 7 symbol of the display effect device 11 also stops, and finally the red 7 symbol together. They are not aligned (see FIG. 111C). On the other hand, when the ART is won, the red 7 symbol that continues to vibrate and the red 7 symbol of the display effect device 11 are also stopped in a straight line (see FIG. 111D), and the freeze effect ends. Thereafter, all the reels rotate again at a constant speed, and the operation of the stop button unit 10 becomes effective (see FIG. 111 (E)).

  FIG. 112 is a schematic diagram of the 7RUSH effect.

  When the main control unit 100 activates any one of the RT3 transition replay to the RT5 transition replay in the third stop, the sub-control unit 160 aligns the red 7 symbols of the display effect device 11 in a straight line and stops the number of ART games. 50 games are displayed (see FIG. 112A). When the main control unit 100 performs the 7RUSH lottery and wins, the main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 to that effect and performs the 7RUSH freeze effect. When one of the RT3 transition replay to RT5 transition replay is activated, the main control unit 100 refers to the first game (first game) in which the gaming state transitions to RT3 to RT5 (a plurality of different AT gaming states). Then, when the start lever 9 of the next game is started, a 7RUSH freeze effect is performed by the main reel, and the operation of the stop button unit 10 is invalidated.

The main control unit 100 rotates the drum unit 2 so that it is aligned upward (see FIG. 112 (B)), stops the red 7 symbols that continue to vibrate in alignment with the central line, displays them on the window unit 3, and adds the ART. 50 games corresponding to the number of games are displayed (see FIG. 112C). This display is repeated as many times as the winning number, so the player feels excitement and excitement. On the other hand, when 7RUSH is not properly selected or when 7RUSH ends, the drum unit 2 is rotated in the forward direction (see FIG. 112D). In order to cancel these freeze effects, the MAX bet button may be operated during the effects. Also, if an effect of moving the main reel by repeatedly hitting the MAX bet button is installed, the player feels extremely hot. Further, if the stop button is pressed during the reel production, the 7 red symbols may be aligned.
ART Example 1:
An embodiment related to ART for winning a small role in the pressing order will be described in detail below, but can be adopted in the above main embodiment.

  FIG. 23 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  Each swirl belt has 20 different symbols on it, and the bonus red symbols “Red 7”, “Blue 7”, “Black Bar”, various small role symbols “Bell”, “Watermelon”, “Cherry”, “Plum (Red)”, “Plum (Blue)”, “Plum (White)” and a replay in which replay is activated are depicted.

  FIG. 24 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of game medals inserted.

  FIG. 24 (B) is an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted (only for three general games: during non-actual operation), in order of left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c. The first line (middle, middle, middle: middle horizontal line), second line (upper, upper, upper: upper horizontal line), and third line (lower, middle, upper: upper right) are effective.

  FIG. 24C shows an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted (in the BB) or in a prescribed number of 3 (in the RB) during the bonus game, and the second line and the fourth line ( (Lower, lower, lower: lower horizontal line) are effective.

  FIG. 25 is a payout table when the accessory is not activated (during a normal game), FIG. 26 is a payout table for the push order prescribed small role, and FIG. 27 is a payout table when the accessory is continuously operated (during a bonus game).

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on an effective line (see FIG. 24) corresponding to the number of inserted game medals.

  (1) First bonus (BB1): Left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (red 7), right drum 2c (red 7) are aligned on any of the three active lines. Then, the acquired number of games is 0, and the first bonus game is awarded thereafter. This first bonus ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the specified number of inserted bonus games exceeds two, and the number of payouts exceeds 360. When the first bonus is won internally by lottery and the first bonus flag is set, the first bonus can be established. It is rare that only the first bonus is won alone, and in most cases, watermelon (FR1: fruit 1) or cherry (CH), or a weak chance (FR3) or strong chance ( FR4) is won at the same time, so when these are displayed, the player feels extremely hot.

  (2) Second bonus (BB2): The left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (blue 7), and the right drum 2c (blue 7) stop on one of the three active lines. Then, the acquired number of games is 0 and the second bonus game is given thereafter. This second bonus ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the prescribed number of inserted bonus games is two, and the number of payouts exceeds 260. When the first bonus is won internally by lottery and the second bonus flag is set, the second bonus can be established. It is rare that only the second bonus is elected alone, and in most cases, watermelon (FR1: fruit 1) or cherry (CH) or a rare chance (FR3) or strong chance ( FR4) is won at the same time, so when these are displayed, the player feels extremely hot.

  (3) Third bonus (RB): The left drum 2a (red 7), the middle drum 2b (red 7), and the right drum 2c (black bar) are aligned on any of the three active lines. Then, the number of acquired games is 0, and a third bonus game is awarded thereafter. This third bonus ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the specified number of inserted third bonus games exceeds 3, and the number of payouts exceeds 60. When the third bonus is won internally by the lottery and the third bonus flag is set, the third bonus can be established. It is rare that only the third bonus is elected alone, and in most cases, watermelon (FR1: fruit 1) or cherry (CH), or a weak chance (FR3) or strong chance ( FR4) is won at the same time, so when these are displayed, the player feels extremely hot.

  (4) Watermelon (FR1: AT lottery role): The name of the watermelon symbol when the watermelon symbols are aligned on the active line. When a watermelon is won internally by lottery, one condition device of FR1 (fruit 1) is activated, and an assist stock lottery (AT stock lottery: range of 0 to 255 times) is performed inside the gaming machine.

  When the watermelon is internally won and the assist stock lottery results in a loss (0 wins in the AT lottery), the sub-control unit 160 adds 1 to the watermelon counter in the RAM 162. On the other hand, when winning in the assist stock lottery, the watermelon counter is cleared and returned to zero. That is, it is the watermelon counter that counts up and stores the number of consecutive lost times in the assist stock lottery. When this watermelon counter reaches a predetermined value, the sub-control unit 160 changes to a lottery table without a loss, and lots the number of assist stocks. For example, when the watermelon counter reaches 10 (that is, lose 10 consecutive times), the number of assist stocks is drawn in the range of 1 to 255 times (that is, there is no losing), and then one set 20 for the number of assist stocks. The game continues navigation and assists the player to win a small bell. Internally, the watermelon is divided into a normal watermelon that is hard to hit AT stock and a chance watermelon that is easy to hit AT stock, and the ratio is 5: 1. Therefore, even if the same watermelon is a chance watermelon, a flashy effect that attracts the player's attention (for example, a large green aura appears on the display effect device 11 or a plurality of watermelons fall).

  (5) Bell (FR2): The title when the bell symbols are aligned on the active line. When the bell wins in the lottery, one FR2 (fruit 2) condition device is activated. When FR2 wins alone, the bell symbol stops on any one of the active lines regardless of the stop operation sequence of the stop button unit 10, and a winning is always made. In addition, as will be described later, when a plurality of plums for a push order control (a part of a plurality of push order stipulated small roles) and a bell small role are simultaneously elected, When a stop operation is performed in the order of pressing determined by the Plum winning combination, the Bell winning combination wins, but none of the winning Plum winning combinations is won. In addition, if a stop operation is not performed in the order determined by a plurality of plums, some of the bells will not win, and in most cases they will lose or have a low probability of winning Any one of will win.

  (6) Single player 1 (FR3: weak chance): When left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (blue 7), right drum 2c (cherry) stops on the effective line Will be one. Since the single player 1 wins at the same time as any of the first bonus and the third bonus with a low probability to a medium probability, the player will be excited when this is displayed.

  (7) Single piece 2 (FR4: strong chance): Left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (black bar), right drum 2c (cherry) on the active line, the number of winnings Will be one. Since the single player 2 wins at the same time as any one of the first bonus and the third bonus with a medium probability to a high probability, when this is displayed, the player feels extremely hot.

  (8) Push order regulation small role (FR5 to FR31: 27 in total): (Plum (red), Plum (blue), Plum (white)) on the left drum 2a, Plum (red) ), Plum (blue), plum (white)), or any of (plum (red), plum (blue), plum (white)) on the right drum 2c stops on the active line, The number is 15 (see FIG. 26 for details). There are a total of 27 (multiple) push order regulation small roles, and 3 of them (a part of multiple) are designed to win internally at the same time as the bell. If a stop operation is performed in the order of pressing determined uniquely by the role, the bell small role wins.

  (9) Cherry (CH): The title when the cherry symbol stops on the effective line of the left drum 2a, and the number obtained is one. When a cherry wins in the lottery, one CH condition device is activated, and an assist stock lottery (AT stock lottery: a range of 0 to 255 times) is performed inside the gaming machine. Cherry is a single symbol small part, and no matter what symbols stop on the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c, it is irrelevant to winning.

  In addition, when the cherry wins and the assist stock lottery results in a loss (0 wins in the AT lottery), the sub-control unit 160 adds 1 to the cherry counter in the RAM 162. On the other hand, when winning in the assist stock lottery, the cherry counter is cleared and returned to zero. That is, it is the cherry counter that counts up and stores the number of consecutive lost times in the assist stock lottery. When the cherry counter reaches a predetermined value, the sub-control unit 160 changes to a lottery table without a loss, and lots the assist stock number. For example, when the cherry counter reaches 5 (that is, loses five times in succession), the number of assist stocks is drawn in the range of 1 to 255 times (that is, there is no loss), and thereafter, one set 20 for the number of assist stocks. The game continues navigation and assists the player to win a small bell. Internally, the cherry is divided into a normal cherry that is hard to hit the AT stock and a chance cherry that is easy to hit the AT stock, and the ratio is 2: 1. Therefore, even if the same cherry is a chance cherry, a flashy effect that attracts the player's attention (for example, a large red aura appears on the display effect device 11 or a plurality of cherries fall) is performed.

  (10) Replay 1 (RP1): This is the title when three replay symbols are aligned on the active line. In response to this, no medals are obtained, and when the RP1 flag is set in the flag area and the player wins alone. The replay 1 always works. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. Note that when one of the other replays 2 to 4 described later is simultaneously selected, any replay symbol is displayed and operated according to the pressing order.

  (11) Replay 2 (RP2): The title when (replay) on the left drum 2a, (bell) on the middle drum 2b, and (replay) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the active line. Is not acquired, and if the RP2 flag is set in the flag area and the player is elected alone, the replay 2 is always activated. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. Replay 2 is on the active line in the RT1 state (in the initial state where the replay probability is about 1 / 7.3, the push order bell is elected and when the missing symbol is displayed, the replay probability increases to about 1/2) If they are displayed together, the RT2 state is reached in which the replay probability has increased to about 1 / 1.2. In most cases, when simultaneous winning with replay 1 or overlapping with other replays is made and the pressing order is correct, the player enters an RT2 state that is advantageous to the player and activates the assist function.

  (12) Replay 3 (RP3): Left drum 2a (replay), middle drum 2b (replay), right drum 2c with plum (red), plum (blue), plum (white) on the effective line In this case, no medals are obtained, and if the RP3 / flag is set in the flag area and the player is elected alone, the replay 3 always operates. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be performed without inserting a new medal. When the replay 3 is displayed on the active line in the RT1 state (replay probability is about 1/2), the replay probability is lowered to about 1/6 and the state is changed to the RT3 state for only 10 games. It becomes a chance zone. In this RT3 state, when the replay 4 is won again, the assist stock lottery is performed with a high winning probability, so that it becomes a blissful period for the player to feel excitement and excitement.

  (13) Replay 4 (RP4): The left drum 2a has either plum (red), plum (blue), or plum (white), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (replay) on the effective line. In this case, no medals are obtained, and if the RP4 / flag is set in the flag area and the player is elected alone, the replay 3 always operates. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. In most cases, the replay 4 is won simultaneously with the replay 1 or overlapped with other replays, and the replay 4 or the replay 1 operates according to the pressing order. When the push order is incorrect in the RT1 state (replay probability is about 1/2), replay 4 is displayed on the active line, which is disadvantageous for the player whose replay probability has dropped to about 1 / 7.3. Transitioning to the RT4 state, the Hamar RT zone is entered for only 100 games.

  (14) Replay 5 (RP5): This is a title when the left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (replay) are aligned on the active line. The medal is not acquired, and if the RP5 / flag is set in the flag area and the player is elected alone, the replay 5 is always activated. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. Note that the replay 5 is a replay for controlling the pressing order, and is actually displayed only when one of the bonuses is being won internally, otherwise it is not aligned on the active line. Therefore, if the replay 5 is activated in a state where it is unknown whether the bonus is won or not, the player is relieved because the bonus is determined.

  FIG. 28 is a combination table of condition devices for push order small combinations.

  The push order small combination means a winning combination in which the bell small combination (first small combination) is won when the operation order of the stop button portion 10 is correct and the bell small combination is not won in the case of incorrect answer. In the present invention, if the first stop operation is correct, the bell small part wins, so the winning probability is 1/3. On the other hand, if the first stop operation is an incorrect answer, the loser (small part missing) or the plum small part wins with a probability of 2/27. Therefore, the expected value of payout is about 6.1 sheets with 15 sheets × (1/3 + 2/27).

  As shown in the figure, there are 27 types of combinations of bell small combination and push order small combination from number 01 to number 27. There are 27 (types) different Plums as push order regulation small roles, 3 of them (a part of multiple push order rules) and Bell small role (first small role) However, the internal lottery is to be won at the same time by one random number lottery.

  When any one of the numbers 01 to 09 is internally won and the left stop button 10a is operated in the first stop, the bell small part is won, while the other stop button portions 10 are operated in the first stop. , Loses or wins a small chance of winning a plum. Similarly, when any of No. 10 to No. 18 is internally won and the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop, the bell small part wins, while the other stop button portions 10 are first stopped. When operated, a loser or plum small wins. Further, when any of the numbers 19 to 27 is internally won and the right stop button 10c is operated in the first stop, the bell small part is won, while the other stop button portions 10 are first stopped. Then, a loser or a plum small wins a prize.

  FIG. 29 is a table showing combinations of condition devices and symbol defining data. FIG. 29A is a combination table of the condition devices of the push order small combination number 01 (see FIG. 28), and FIG. 29B conceptually shows the configuration of the symbol defining data.

  As the combination of the bell small combination and the push order small combination, when the number 01 is won internally, the condition device (flag) of FR2 + FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is activated (see FIG. 29A). Therefore, according to the player's operation of the stop button section 10, FR2 bell bell bell, FR5 plum (red), plum (red), plum (red), FR9 plum (blue), plum (blue) ) ・ Plum (blue) or FR13 Plum (white) ・ Plum (white) ・ Plum (white) wins a prize or loses no medals (all minors do not win) )become.

  The symbol defining data is information used for symbol stop control, and is composed of symbol data (first information) and color data (second information). The bell symbol does not have color information, and is specified only by the symbol data 04H (that is, since it is a single color, color data is unnecessary). On the other hand, the Plum design has the same shape, but the color is different from red, blue and white. Therefore, the Plum (red) design has the design data 20H and the color data 10H, and the Plum (blue) design has the design data 20H and the color. By distinguishing the data 20H and the plum (white) symbol from the symbol data 20H and the color data 40H, the three-color plum symbol can be specified.

  Next, the operation of the swivel type gaming machine configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and flowcharts.

  FIG. 30 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  For example, when the number 01 shown in FIG. 28 is won by random lottery, the condition device of FR2 + FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is operated as described above. When the player operates the left stop button 10a in the first stop in this state, the main control unit 100 determines that the stored control information (first left stop) matches (the pressing order is “correct”). Regardless of the subsequent order of the second stop operation and the third stop operation, only the bell small role is always won and 15 medals are paid out. That is, the main control unit 100 starts a variable display game that fluctuates three symbol sequences, and three of 27 bell small roles that are a bell small role and a push order regulation small role are simultaneously won by lottery. Let When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the pressing order determined by these three plum small combinations, the bell small combination is won, and as will be described later, none of the three prize winning combinations won at the same time. Thus, stop control is performed.

  FIG. 30A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player makes the first stop and presses the left stop button 10a. When the stop operation is performed when the cherry No. 8 is at the reference position (the state in which the cherry No. 8 can immediately stop at the lower position of the left drum 2a. See FIG. 30B), the main control unit 100 is one of the active lines. The pull-in control is performed so that the bell symbol stops at the shortest time. In this case, no. 4 bell symbols are stopped on the second line (upper, upper, upper: upper horizontal line) (see FIG. 30C).

  FIG. 31 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  In a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating (see FIG. 30A), the player stops the left stop button 10a with No. When the replay of No. 6 is at the reference position (when the No. 6 replay can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the left drum), the main control unit 100 immediately stops the drum, as shown in FIG. Similarly, no. The bell symbol 4 is stopped on the second line (upper, upper, upper: upper horizontal line) (see FIG. 31A).

  On the other hand, in the state of FIG. When the 5th plum (red) is at the reference position and the stop operation is performed (the No. 5 plum (red) can be stopped immediately at the lower position of the left drum), the main control unit 100 immediately stops the drum, No. The bell symbol 4 is stopped on the first line (middle, middle, middle: central horizontal line) (see FIG. 31B).

  Further, in the state shown in FIG. 30A, the player makes the first stop and presses the left stop button 10a. When the stop operation is performed when the bell No. 4 is at the reference position, the main control unit 100 immediately stops the drum, The bell symbol 4 is stopped on the third line (lower, middle, upper: upper right) (see FIG. 31C).

  FIG. 32 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 32 (A) is the same as FIG. 31 (A), and when the player stops the middle stop button 10b in the second stop when the left drum 2a is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the upper stage. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. The bell symbol 4 is stopped at the upper stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 32B). Since the four bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames, any bell symbol in the pull-in range can be stopped at the upper stage of the middle drum 2b to reach a reach state. is there.

  When the player performs a stop operation on the right stop button 10c in the second stop from the state of FIG. The bell symbol 6 is stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 32C). Since the four bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames, any bell symbol in the pull-in range can be stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c to reach a reach state. is there.

  The “reach state” is a state in which the symbols constituting the predetermined role are aligned on the effective line of the symbol row other than the one symbol row that was rotated last, and the last rotated symbol row is When the predetermined symbol is displayed on the active line when the vehicle stops, the predetermined combination is in a state of winning (see FIGS. 32B and 32C). This reach state is also referred to as a “temple state” of a predetermined role as a synonym, and in FIG. 32, it is a “reach state” or “tempe state” of a bell small role.

  FIG. 33 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  In FIG. 33 (A), as in FIG. 32 (B), the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b are stopped, and two bell symbols are displayed on the second line. When the player performs a stop operation on the right stop button 10c at the third stop, the main control unit 100, for example, No. The bell symbol 6 is stopped on the upper stage of the middle drum 2b, and the bell small part is awarded on the second line (see the right figure in FIG. 33A). As described above, since the four bell symbols on the right drum 2c are arranged at intervals of four frames, any one in the pull-in range (“4 frames” in the current rule) from the reach state of the bell small role. The bell symbol can be stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c to win the bell small part.

  Also, from the state shown in the left diagram of FIG. The bell symbol No. 4 is stopped on the upper stage of the middle drum 2b, and the bell small part is awarded on the second line (see the right figure in FIG. 33B). As with the right drum 2c, the four bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames, so that any bell symbol in the pull-in range from the reach state of the bell small role is changed to the middle drum 2b. It is possible to stop at the upper stage and win the bell small part. Then, as shown in FIGS. 33 (A) and 33 (B), when the main control unit 100 wins the bell small role (first small role), the three pushing orders simultaneously won internally. FR5 Plum (Red), Plum (Red), Plum (Red), FR9 Plum (Blue), Plum (Blue), Plum (Blue) or FR13 Plum (White), Plum (White)・ Plums (white) will not be awarded. At this time, all 27 types of plum smalls will not reach the reach. That is, in the left figure of FIG. 33 (A) or the left figure of FIG. 33 (B), while the bell small part is in the reach state, the plum small part is not in the reach state in the reach state of the bell small part. There will be no winnings.

  In the above description, the case where the number 01 is won, the push order is correct, and the bell small part wins is explained. However, even when the numbers 02 to 09 shown in FIG. When the left stop button 10a is operated, only the bell small part always wins regardless of the order of the second stop operation and the third stop operation thereafter. Similarly, when the numbers 10 to 18 shown in FIG. 28 are won, when the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop, or when the numbers 19 to 27 are won, When the right stop button 10c is operated with one stop, only the small bell role always wins. That is, only the first stop operation of the stop button unit 10 determines the winning or non-winning of the bell small role, and the symbol stop control operation is the same, so the description is omitted.

  34 to 35 are schematic diagrams showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  As described in FIG. 30, when the number 01 (see FIG. 28) is won by random number lottery, the condition device of FR2 + FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is activated. In this state, when the player operates the middle stop button 10b in the first stop, the main control unit 100 determines that the stored control information (first left stop) does not match (the pressing order is “incorrect answer”), While simultaneously winning one of the symbols of FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is first drawn on the active line, the bell symbol is kicked off from the effective line, so no matter how you perform the second stop operation and the third stop operation after that, Stop control is performed so as not to win the small bell role. Further, in this case, the main control unit 100 does not establish the bell small role without reaching, but this is the most important constituent requirement for affirming the patentability of the present invention.

  FIG. 34A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player stops the middle stop button 10b at the first stop, When the stop operation is performed when the No. 7 plum (white) is at the reference position (the No. 7 plum (white) can immediately stop at the lower position of the middle drum 2b; see FIG. 34B), the main control unit 100 Performs pull-in control of sliding the frame design of either red, blue or white (see FIG. 29A), which is the middle drum design of FR5 + FR9 + FR13, by three frames so as to stop at the upper position of the middle drum 2b (FIG. 34C). reference). In this case, the main control unit 100 stops the plum (red) which is the middle drum symbol of FR5 on the second line, but searches for only symbol data “20H” when pulling the plum symbol, The matched symbol is stopped at a predetermined position, and the color of the plum symbol actually stopped after the symbol with sufficient time is stopped is stored in the RAM 102 (red in the upper middle drum). That is, as shown in FIG. 29 (B), the plum symbol is composed of symbol data and color data, but during the first stop control, the color data processing is omitted and only the symbol data is used. Since the plum symbol is drawn in, and the time for calculating the stop position can be reduced by that amount, the symbol position shift when the drum is stopped can be eliminated.

  Further, since the bell symbol is stopped at the lower position of the middle drum 2b and deviated from the effective line, the possibility that the bell small part wins in the subsequent stop operation is completely eliminated. This point (the point that eliminates the possibility of winning the Bell small role as the first small role when the pushing order of the first stop is incorrect) is one of the constituent requirements to affirm the patentability of the present invention. .

  As a stop mode other than that in FIG. 34 (C), (1) No. 2 is set at the upper position of the middle drum 2b. No. 7 plum (white) stops (see FIG. 35A), (2) No. No. 12 plum (blue) stops (see FIG. 35B), and (3) No. 12 There is a case where the 17th plum (blue) stops (see FIG. 35C), but if the answer is incorrect in the order of pushing the first stop, as in FIG. The possibility is gone.

  FIG. 36 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  36 (A) is the same as FIG. 34 (C). When the player performs a stop operation on the left stop button 10a in the second stop in a state where the plum (red) symbol of No. 2 is displayed in the upper stage, the main control unit 100, for example, The 5 plum (red) symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 36B). Since the four plum symbols on the left drum 2a are arranged at intervals of four frames, any one of the plum symbols in the pull-in range can be used as the left drum regardless of the three prized small symbols. It is possible to stop at the upper stage of 2b and set any of 27 types of plum small parts to reach state. In this case, the main control unit 100 searches only the symbol data “20H” when pulling in any of the red, blue and white plum symbols, stops the matched symbol at a predetermined position, and after the symbol with sufficient time is stopped. The actually stopped color of the plum symbol is stored in the RAM 102 (red on the upper left drum, red on the upper middle drum).

  In the case of FIG. 36B, the FR5 plum (red) symbol of the internal winning is stopped at the upper left drum and the upper middle drum (on the second line), so the possibility that FR5 will win It is left. However, in the case of FIG. 36C as well, the RAM 102 stores that white is stopped at the upper left drum and red is stopped at the upper middle drum, and the main control unit 100 stores the FR 23 to FR 25 shown in FIG. Although it recognizes that it is in the reach state, since those condition devices are not in operation, the stop control of the symbols is performed so that it eventually becomes lost. Further, the main control unit 100 pulls in any of the plum symbols using only the symbol data, and the time required for calculating the stop position can be reduced accordingly, so that the symbol position deviation when the drum is stopped is eliminated. Can do.

  FIG. 37 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 37 (A) is the same as FIG. 36 (B), and the plum (red) symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the left drum and the upper stage of the middle drum (on the second line), so that FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is won internally. Among them, FR5 is in a reach state, and there is a possibility that a plum (red) symbol is aligned on the second line and won. That is, as shown in FIG. 37 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not set the bell small role in the reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state of FIG. 37A, when the right stop button 10c corresponding to the last rotating right drum 2c is stopped, the main control unit 100 is within the number of pull-in pieces (in this case, a right that can be stopped immediately). If the plum symbol (up to 5 frames including the upper position of the drum 2c) is a plum (red) symbol, it matches FR5, which is one of the push order regulation minors in the internal winning, so the plum (red) The symbol is stopped on the second line to win a prize (see FIG. 37B). On the other hand, if the number within the number of drawn frames is other than the plum (red) symbol, the main control unit 100 performs stop control of the right drum 2c so as not to win the FR5 that has reached the reach state. For example, no. If the 10 plum (white) symbol is located in the upper part of the right drum 2c, it is slid down three frames and the 7 is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 37C). This Plum symbol, Plum symbol, and Replay symbol are special symbols that are called small part missing points, and when the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, the predetermined number of games. Only the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2) is obtained.

  FIG. 38 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 38 (A) is the same as FIG. 36 (C), and the plum (white) symbol is stopped on the upper left drum and the plum (red) symbol is stopped on the upper middle of the second drum. None of the winning FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is in a reach state, and there is no possibility of winning a prize with all the plum symbols on the second line. That is, as shown in FIG. 38 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not reach the bell small role in a reach state, and does not set the bell small role in all push order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state of FIG. 38A, when the right stop button 10c corresponding to the last rotating right drum 2c is stopped, the main control unit 100 is within the number of retracted frames (in this case, the right stop that can be stopped immediately). Even if the plum design within 5 frames including the upper position of the drum 2c) is either red, blue or white, it does not match the FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is the push order regulation small part in the internal winning. Stop control of the right drum 2c is performed so that a certain replay symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c. For example, no. If the 10 plum (white) symbol is located on the upper one frame of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 38B), it is slid down four frames and the 7 is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 38C). The plum symbol, the plum symbol, and the replay symbol are special symbols referred to as small role missing points as described above. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, a predetermined symbol is displayed. Only the number of games is in the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2).

  FIG. 39 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  39 (A) is the same as FIG. 36 (A). When the player performs a stop operation on the right stop button 10c at the second stop in a state where the plum (red) symbol of No. 2 is displayed in the upper stage, the main control unit 100, for example, The plum (red) symbol of 5 is stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 39B). Since the four plum symbols on the right drum 2c are arranged at intervals of four frames, one of the plum symbols in the pull-in range is drawn to the right drum regardless of the three winning small symbols. It is possible to stop at the upper stage of 2c and make any of the 27 types of plum small combinations reach. In this case, the main control unit 100 searches only the symbol data “20H” when pulling in any of the red, blue and white plum symbols, stops the matched symbol at a predetermined position, and after the symbol with sufficient time is stopped. The color of the actually stopped plum symbol is stored in the RAM 102 (red on the upper middle drum, red on the upper right drum).

  In the case of FIG. 39B, the FR5 plum (red) symbol of the internal winning is stopped at the middle drum upper stage and the right drum upper stage (on the second line), so there is a possibility that FR5 will win a prize. It is left. However, also in the case of FIG. 39C, the RAM 102 stores that red is stopped at the upper stage of the middle drum and white is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum, and the main control unit 100 stores the FR7, FR16, and Although it is recognized that the FR 25 is in the reach state, since those condition devices are not operating, the stop control of the symbols is performed so as to finally lose. Further, the main control unit 100 pulls in any of the plum symbols using only the symbol data, and the time required for calculating the stop position can be reduced accordingly, so that the symbol position deviation when the drum is stopped is eliminated. Can do.

  FIG. 40 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 40 (A) is the same as FIG. 39 (B), and the plum (red) symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the middle drum and the upper stage of the right drum (on the second line), so that FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is won internally. Among them, FR5 is in a reach state, and there is a possibility that a plum (red) symbol is aligned on the second line and won. That is, as shown in FIG. 40 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not reach the bell small role in the reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state of FIG. 40A, when the left stop button 10a corresponding to the last rotating left drum 2a is operated to stop, the main control unit 100 does not exceed the number of drawn frames (in this case, the left stop that can stop immediately). If the plum symbol (up to 5 frames including the upper position of the drum 2a) is a plum (red) symbol, it matches FR5, which is one of the push order regulation minors in internal winning, so the plum (red) The symbol is stopped on the second line to win a prize (see FIG. 40B). On the other hand, if the number within the number of drawn frames is other than the plum (red) symbol, the main control unit 100 performs stop control of the left drum 2a so as not to win the FR 5 in the reach state. For example, no. If the 15 plum (white) symbol is located in the upper part of the left drum 2a, it is slid down four frames and No. 11 replay symbols are stopped at the upper stage of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 40C). These replay symbols, plum symbols, and plum symbols are special symbols called small part missing points. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state with a replay probability of 1 / 7.3, Only the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2) is obtained.

  FIG. 41 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 41 (A) is the same as FIG. 39 (C), and the plum (red) symbol is stopped on the upper middle drum, and the plum (white) symbol is stopped on the upper right drum. None of the winning FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is in a reach state, and there is no possibility of winning a prize with all the plum symbols on the second line. That is, as shown in FIG. 41 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not reach the bell small role in a reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state shown in FIG. 41A, when the left stop button 10a corresponding to the last rotating left drum 2a is stopped, the main control unit 100 is within the number of drawn frames (in this case, the left stop that can stop immediately). Even if the plum design in the drum 2a (up to 5 frames including the upper position) is either red, blue or white, it does not match the FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is the push order regulation small part in the internal winning. Stop control of the left drum 2a is performed so that a certain replay symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the left drum 2a. For example, no. If the plum (white) pattern of 15 is located in the upper stage of the drum 2c (see FIG. 41 (B)), it is slid down four frames and No. 11 replay symbols are stopped at the upper stage of the drum 2c (see FIG. 41C). This replay symbol, plum symbol, plum symbol is a special symbol called a small role missing eye as described above. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, a predetermined symbol is displayed. Only the number of games is in the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2).

  42 to 43 are schematic diagrams showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  As described in FIG. 30, when the number 01 (see FIG. 28) is won by random number lottery, the condition device of FR2 + FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is activated. When the player operates the right stop button 10c at the first stop in this state, the main control unit 100 determines that the stored control information (first left stop) does not match (the pressing order is “incorrect answer”), While simultaneously winning one of the symbols of FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is first drawn on the active line, the bell symbol is kicked off from the effective line, so no matter how you perform the second stop operation and the third stop operation after that, Stop control is performed so as not to win the small bell role. Further, in this case, the main control unit 100 does not establish the bell small role without reaching, but this is the most important constituent requirement for affirming the patentability of the present invention.

  FIG. 24A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the first stop, When the stop operation is performed when the 9 black bar is at the reference position (the No. 9 black bar can immediately stop at the lower position of the right drum 2c. See FIG. 42 (B)), the main control unit 100 moves the FR5 + FR9 + FR13 to the right. Pull-in control is performed to slide any of the red, blue and white plum symbols (see FIG. 29A), which is a drum symbol, by three frames so as to stop at the middle position of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 42C). In this case, the main control unit 100 stops the plum (red) which is the right drum symbol of FR5 on the first line, but searches only the symbol data “20H” when pulling the plum symbol, The matched symbol is stopped at a predetermined position, and the color of the plum symbol actually stopped after the symbol having sufficient time is stopped is stored in the RAM 102 (red in the middle stage of the right drum). That is, as shown in FIG. 29 (B), the plum symbol is composed of symbol data and color data, but during the first stop control, the color data processing is omitted and only the symbol data is used. Since the plum symbol is drawn in, and the time for calculating the stop position can be reduced by that amount, the symbol position shift when the drum is stopped can be eliminated.

  Further, since the bell symbol is stopped at the lower position of the right drum 2c and deviated from the effective line, the possibility that the bell small part will win in the subsequent stop operation is completely eliminated. This point (the point that eliminates the possibility of winning the Bell small role as the first small role when the pushing order of the first stop is incorrect) is one of the constituent requirements to affirm the patentability of the present invention. .

  As a stopping mode other than that in FIG. No. 10 plum (white) stops (see FIG. 43A), (2) No. No. 15 plum (blue) stops (see FIG. 43B) and (3) No. There is a case where 20 plum (blue) stops (see FIG. 43C), but if the answer is incorrect in the order of pushing the first stop, as in FIG. The possibility is gone.

  FIG. 44 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  44 (A) is the same as FIG. 42 (C), and the right drum 2c stops and no. When the player performs the stop operation on the left stop button 10a in the second stop in a state where the plum (red) symbol of No. 5 is displayed in the middle stage, the main control unit 100, for example, The plum (red) symbol of 5 is stopped at the middle stage of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 44B). Since the four plum symbols on the left drum 2a are arranged at intervals of four frames, any one of the plum symbols in the pull-in range can be used as the left drum regardless of the three prized small symbols. It is possible to stop at the middle stage of 2b and set any of 27 types of plum small parts to reach state. In this case, the main control unit 100 searches only the symbol data “20H” when pulling in any of the red, blue and white plum symbols, stops the matched symbol at a predetermined position, and after the symbol with sufficient time is stopped. The color of the actually stopped plum symbol is stored in the RAM 102 (red at the middle of the left drum and red at the middle of the right drum).

  In the case of FIG. 44B, the FR5 plum (red) symbol of the internal winning is stopped at the middle stage of the left drum and the middle stage of the right drum (on the first line), so there is a possibility that FR5 will win a prize. It is left. However, also in the case of FIG. 44C, the RAM 102 stores that white is stopped in the middle of the left drum and red is stopped in the middle of the right drum, and the main control unit 100 stores the FR23, FR26, and Although it recognizes that the FR 29 is in the reach state, since those condition devices are not operating, the stop control of the symbols is performed so that it will eventually be lost. Further, the main control unit 100 pulls in any of the plum symbols using only the symbol data, and the time required for calculating the stop position can be reduced accordingly, so that the symbol position deviation when the drum is stopped is eliminated. Can do.

  FIG. 45 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 45 (A) is the same as FIG. 44 (B), and the plum (red) symbol is stopped at the middle stage of the left drum and the middle stage of the right drum (on the first line), so that FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is won internally. Among them, FR5 is in a reach state, and there is a possibility that a plum (red) pattern is aligned on the first line and won. That is, as shown in FIG. 45 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not set the bell small role in the reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state of FIG. 45A, when the middle stop button 10b corresponding to the last rotating middle drum 2b is operated to stop, the main control unit 100 is within the number of drawn frames (in this case, it can be stopped immediately). If the plum symbol (within 5 frames including the middle position of the drum 2b) is a plum (red) symbol, it matches FR5, which is one of the push order regulation minors in internal winning, so the plum (red) The symbol is stopped on the first line to win a prize (see FIG. 45B). On the other hand, if the number within the number of drawn frames is other than the plum (red) symbol, the main control unit 100 performs stop control of the middle drum 2b so as not to win the FR5 in the reach state. For example, no. If the plum (white) pattern of No. 7 is located in the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, it is slid down two frames to The replay symbol 5 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 42C). This plum symbol, replay symbol, and plum symbol are special symbols called small part missing points. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, the predetermined number of games. Only the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2) is obtained.

  FIG. 46 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 46 (A) is the same as FIG. 44 (C). Since the plum (white) symbol is stopped at the middle left drum and the plum (red) symbol is stopped at the middle right drum on the first line, None of the winning FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is in a reach state, and there is no possibility of winning a prize with all the plum symbols on the first line. That is, as shown in FIG. 46 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not set the bell small role in the reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state of FIG. 46A, when the middle stop button 10b corresponding to the last rotating middle drum 2b is operated to stop, the main control unit 100 is within the number of drawn frames (in this case, it can be stopped immediately). Even if the plum pattern in the drum 2b (within 5 frames including the middle position) is either red, blue or white, it does not match the FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is the push order regulation small part in the internal winning, so within the number of frames to be drawn Stop control of the middle drum 2b is performed so that a certain replay symbol is stopped at the middle upper stage of the middle drum 2b. For example, no. If the plum (white) pattern of No. 7 is positioned on the upper one frame of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 46B), it is slid down four frames to The replay symbol 5 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 46C). The plum symbol, the replay symbol, and the plum symbol are special symbols referred to as small role missing points as described above. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, a predetermined symbol is displayed. Only the number of games is in the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2).

  FIG. 47 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  47 (A) is the same as FIG. 44 (A), and the right drum 2c stops and no. When the player performs a stop operation on the middle stop button 10b in the second stop in a state where the plum (red) symbol of No. 5 is displayed in the middle stage, the main control unit 100, for example, 2 plum (red) symbol is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 47B). Since the four plum symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames, any one of the plum symbols in the pull-in range can be used as the middle drum regardless of the three winning small symbols. It is possible to stop at the middle stage of 2b and set any of 27 types of plum small parts to reach state. In this case, the main control unit 100 searches only the symbol data “20H” when pulling in any of the red, blue and white plum symbols, stops the matched symbol at a predetermined position, and after the symbol with sufficient time is stopped. The color of the actually stopped plum symbol is stored in the RAM 102 (red in the middle middle drum and red in the right middle drum).

  In the case of FIG. 47 (B), the FR5 plum (red) symbol of internal winning is stopped at the middle drum middle stage and middle drum middle stage (on the first line), so the possibility of FR5 winning It is left. However, also in the case of FIG. 47C, the RAM 102 stores that white is stopped in the middle stage of the middle drum and red is stopped in the middle stage of the right drum, and the main control unit 100 stores the FR11, FR20, and the like shown in FIG. Although it recognizes that the FR 29 is in the reach state, since those condition devices are not operating, the stop control of the symbols is performed so that it will eventually be lost. Further, the main control unit 100 pulls in any of the plum symbols using only the symbol data, and the time required for calculating the stop position can be reduced accordingly, so that the symbol position deviation when the drum is stopped is eliminated. Can do.

  FIG. 48 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 48 (A) is the same as FIG. 47 (B), and the plum (red) symbols are stopped at the middle drum middle stage and the right drum middle stage (on the first line), so that the internal winning FR5 + FR9 + FR13. Among them, FR5 is in a reach state, and there is a possibility that a plum (red) pattern is aligned on the first line and won. That is, as shown in FIG. 48 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not reach the bell small role in the reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  In the state of FIG. 48A, when the left stop button 10a corresponding to the last rotating left drum 2a is stopped, the main control unit 100 is within the number of drawn frames (in this case, the left stop that can be stopped immediately). If the plum symbol (within 5 frames including the middle position of the drum 2a) is a plum (red) symbol, it matches FR5, which is one of the push order regulation minors in internal winning, so the plum (red) The symbol is stopped on the first line to win a prize (see FIG. 48B). On the other hand, if the number within the number of drawn frames is other than the plum (red) symbol, the main control unit 100 performs stop control of the left drum 2a so as not to win the FR 5 in the reach state. For example, no. If the 15 plum (white) symbol is located in the middle of the left drum 2a, it is slid down four frames and 11 replay symbols are stopped at the middle stage of the left drum 2a (see FIG. 48C). These replay symbols, plum symbols, and plum symbols are special symbols called small part missing points. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state with a replay probability of 1 / 7.3, Only the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2) is obtained.

  FIG. 49 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 49 (A) is the same as FIG. 47 (C), and the plum (white) symbol is stopped at the middle drum middle stage and the plum (red) symbol is stopped at the middle middle drum on the first line. None of the winning FR5 + FR9 + FR13 is in a reach state, and there is no possibility of winning a prize with all the plum symbols on the first line. That is, as shown in FIG. 49 (A), if the pressing order is incorrect, the main control unit 100 does not set the bell small role in a reach state, and all the pressing order specified small role symbols (27 types of plums). Any one of the small role symbols) is stopped to reach a reach state. In this case, since it is not determined whether or not the Plum winning combination is won internally, the processing time is shortened and the symbol stop control can be performed quickly.

  When the left stop button 10a corresponding to the last rotating left drum 2a is stopped in the state of FIG. 49 (A), the main control unit 100 is within the number of drawn frames (in this case, a left that can be stopped immediately). Even if the plum design in the drum 2a (within 5 frames including the middle position) is either red, blue or white, it does not match the FR5 + FR9 + FR13 which is the push order regulation small part in the internal winning. Stop control of the left drum 2a is performed so that a certain replay symbol is stopped at the middle stage of the left drum 2a. For example, no. If the 15 plum (white) symbol is located in the middle stage of the drum 2c (see FIG. 49B), it is slid down four frames and no. 11 replay symbols are stopped at the middle stage of the drum 2c (see FIG. 49C). This replay symbol, plum symbol, plum symbol is a special symbol called a small role missing eye as described above. When the special symbol is displayed on the active line in the initial state where the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, a predetermined symbol is displayed. Only the number of games is in the RT1 state with a high replay probability (1/2).

  In the above description, the case where the number 01 is won and the pressing order is incorrect and the bell small role does not win is described. However, even if the numbers 02 to 09 shown in FIG. If a button other than the left stop button 10a is operated in the stop, the bell small part will not win regardless of the order of the subsequent second stop operation and third stop operation. Similarly, when numbers 10 to 18 shown in FIG. 28 are won, when a button other than the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop, or when numbers 19 to 27 are won, When a button other than the right stop button 10c is operated in the first stop, the bell small part does not win. That is, only the first stop operation of the stop button portion 10 determines the winning or non-winning of the bell small role, and the symbol stop control operation regarding the winning or missing small role of the plum small portion is the same, and the description is omitted.

  FIG. 50 is a flowchart showing a symbol stop processing subroutine. A solid line indicates processing executed by the main control unit 100, and a broken line indicates processing executed by the sub-control unit 160.

  In the game main process in step S170 of FIG. 22, the main control unit 100 executes random number lottery in accordance with the player's operation of the start lever 9 (start signal reception timing), and after calling this subroutine, the drum unit The symbol change display game is started by rotating 2.

  In step S200, the main control unit 100 outputs a notification signal (command, data, etc.) and notifies the sub-control unit 160 of the lottery result and internal state (bonus flag, RT state, number of digested games after bonus, etc.). The process proceeds to step S210.

  Upon receipt of the notification signal, the sub-control unit 160 determines whether or not any of the push order small combinations (condition device combination numbers 01 to 27 shown in FIG. 28) has been won by a command or data in step SS100. If it is not elected, the process ends. If it is elected, the process proceeds to step SS110.

  The sub-control unit 160 confirms whether or not there is an AT stock in Step SS110, and ends if there is no AT stock. On the other hand, if there is an AT stock, the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to Step SS120.

  The sub-control unit 160 checks whether or not the condition for releasing the AT stock (invoking the AT function) is established in step SS120, and if not, the process ends. If established, the process proceeds to step SS130. To do.

  The sub-control unit 160 activates the AT function in step SS130, notifies the pressing order of the stop button operation, and ends this process. Specifically, this AT function has a voice of “left”, “middle”, “right” in a male voice and “left”, “middle”, “right” in a female voice, The image is displayed on the display effect device 11.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S210, the main control unit 100 performs a stop operation in the pressing order determined by the internal winning winning combination (number 01 to number 27), thereby determining that the pressing order is correct, step S220. In step S230, if the pushing order is incorrect, the process proceeds to step S230.

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S230, when one of the two drum parts 2 stops, the main control unit 100 sets one of the 27 kinds of plum small parts to reach a state, and when the final stop operation of the drum part 2 is performed in step S240. It is determined whether or not the winning prize can be won, and if it is possible to win, the prize is awarded in step S250 and the process ends. On the other hand, if winning is not possible, a special symbol (missing eye) is displayed in step S260. Then, the RT1 state, which is a high probability replaying state, is set to end.

  FIG. 51 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

  The sub-control unit 160 switches and displays the effect video displayed on the display effect device 11 according to the gaming state. FIG. 51A shows a daytime stage screen, which is used in a state where the AT winning probability is low. FIG. 51 (B) is a night stage screen, which is mainly used during the internal winning of the bonus or in a state where the winning probability of the AT is high. When this screen is displayed, the player expects the bonus or AT release. I feel uplifted. The sub-control unit 160 wins rare small roles such as middle tier cherries (called “single chess” in the industry), watermelons, and strong bells that are singly won and arranged regardless of the push order, and then the transition lottery If you win further at, it switches from the normal screen in the daytime to the night screen. On the other hand, every time a replay is won, a falling lottery is performed with a predetermined probability, so that during a general game, a normal day screen and a night screen are alternately displayed at a predetermined frequency. In general, these display screens change the time, weather, etc. depending on the stay mode such as low probability state and high probability state during bonus internal winning in order to suggest the correct mode to the player. The player's sense of expectation can be further enhanced by appropriately performing the performance.

  FIG. 51C shows a night screen. When the player operates the start lever from the night stage screen to start the variable display game, the sub-control unit 160 has a predetermined condition such as when a rare small role is won. Assist lottery (AT lottery) is performed every time it is established. When the sub-control unit 160 performs the AT lottery, the sub-control unit 160 performs an effect of dropping the brightness on the night stage screen together with thunder. In addition, a night screen is used as a precursor for releasing bonuses and ATs. In particular, when a bonus is won, the abrupt change from the day stage screen to the night stage screen is performed, and the lightning continuous effect is performed at least twice to suggest the bonus confirmation. In addition, if the lightning effect is performed three times from the daytime stage screen, it indicates that the bonus confirmation and AT lottery have been won. Therefore, it is possible to increase the player's expectation by appropriately generating thunder and shininess.

  The AT lottery described above is also referred to as a navigation lottery (abbreviated name of “navigation lottery”), and when the AT function is activated, the sub-control unit 160 is stopped in order to avoid winning a winning combination or falling replay. The operation order of the button unit 10 is notified. In addition, when winning in the AT lottery, the AT function is not activated immediately, but is added and stored as AT stock (stored or stored), and released at once at a desired timing, so that a large number of medals can be played. Can be acquired by a person. For example, in the RT state (high-probability replay state) after winning a premier bonus of 7 reds with very low winning probability, all AT stock for one set of 50 games is released, and AT lottery is performed during ART For example, since the ART continues indefinitely without reducing the number of balls by RT, a lump of balls can be created.

  FIG. 52 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

  When notifying the bonus winning, the sub-control unit 160 displays the night stage screen again (see FIG. 52A) in the next variable display game in which the final effect of FIG. According to the operation of the unit 10, two bats with a plate approach from a distance and display so that the “BONUS” characters can be recognized gradually (see FIG. 52 (B)), and finally the bats fly away Produce.

  Also, from the state where the night stage screen is displayed, scroll the display screen to the right, the cemetery is expanded and the butler of the character digs with the cry of "Ollya" and the sound effect of "Tiroro Lorne" It is good also as an extremely premiere effect for a player by making the hero character appear from the grave hole in the center of the raised screen (see FIG. 52C).

  FIG. 53 is a schematic diagram of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

  When the sub-control unit 160 notifies the AT release, the sub-control unit 160 displays the night stage screen again in the next variation display game in which the final effect is performed in the same manner as the bonus notification (see FIG. 53A), and the stop button unit. In response to 10 operations, two bats with a plate approach from a distance, and display the words “ART START”, which means the activation of the assist function, gradually (see FIG. 53 (B)). ), The last bat announcement effect will be performed.

  Also, from the night stage screen displayed, scroll the display screen to the right, the cemetery is expanded, and the character ’s butler is screaming “Ollya” and the sound effect “Tiroro Lorne”, and the center of the screen By digging up a plate on which “ART START” is written from the grave hole of the player, it is possible to create an extremely premiere effect for the player (see FIG. 53C).

  54 to 55 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device.

  As described above, when the sub-control unit 160 activates the ART function that continues 50 games in one set, the sub-control unit 160 displays the remaining number of games and the number of acquired coins indicating the number of purely increased medals at the upper right of the display effect device 11. Since the AT function is generally activated in the RT state, the ART function will be described as an example.

  When the first game starts, the sub-control unit 160 displays the remaining number of games as 49 and the number of net increase medals as 0, and if the pushing order bell is won at that time, the stop button portion necessary for winning the bell small role The pressing order of 10 is displayed by the numbers 1 to 3. In this case, the number 1 indicating the first stop operation is displayed in a large circle, and pronounced “Naka” with Dracula or the hero's voice (see FIG. 54A). Note that the player is also assisted with the same display and voice even when the push order replay in which the RT is punctured if the operation is wrong is won.

  When the player correctly operates the middle stop button 10b, the sub-control unit 160 changes the large circle character at the center to OK to make it a small circle, and expands the number 2 meaning the second stop operation to a large circle. Are displayed (see FIG. 54B).

  When the player correctly operates the right stop button 10c, the sub-control unit 160 changes the large circle character on the right to a small circle, and expands the number 3 indicating the third stop operation to a large circle. (See FIG. 54C). In addition, as described above, the push order bell wins only by correctly answering the first stop operation, but if the second and third stop operations are not displayed, the player is confused and is displayed to avoid it. It is. However, if the second and third stop operation sequences are mistaken, the bell small role may be won, but the assist lottery may not be performed in the next variable display game.

When the player finally operates the left stop button 10a, the sub-control unit 160 changes the large circle character on the left to OK to make a small circle (see FIG. 55A). Then, “GET” signifying a bell small prize winning is displayed, and the acquired number is added to 0 to 15 in conjunction with paying out 15 medals (see FIG. 55B).
ART Example 2:
FIG. 56 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  Each swirl belt has 21 symbols in a different arrangement, and the symbols “Red 7”, “Blue 7”, “Black Bar” that act as bonuses, and “Bell” in various small role symbols. , “Cherry”, “Plum (Red)”, “Plum (Blue)”, “Plum (White)” and replays and replays in which replay is activated.

  FIG. 57 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of game medals inserted.

  FIG. 57 (B) shows an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted (only for three general games). The first line (upper stage, upper drum, right drum 2c) is arranged in the order of left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c. Middle, lower: down right, second line (lower, middle, upper: upper right), third line (upper, middle, upper: V) and fourth line (lower, middle, lower: inverted V) These four are effective. Note that, in the bonus game (when an accessory is activated), the prescribed number of game medals is two, but the effective lines are the same for the first to fourth lines.

  FIG. 58 is a payout table when an accessory is not operating (during a normal game, the specified number is 3).

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on an effective line (see FIG. 57) corresponding to the number of game medals inserted. In this case, the same is true regardless of the number of inserted sheets.

  (1) First bonus (BB1): left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (red 7), right drum 2c (red 7) aligned on any of the four active lines Then, the acquired number of games is 0, and the first bonus game is awarded thereafter. This first bonus ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the specified number of inserted bonus games exceeds two, and the number of payouts exceeds 360. When the first bonus is won internally by lottery and the first bonus flag is set, the first bonus can be established. It is rare that only the first bonus is won, and in most cases, it will be won at the same time as 4 cherry cherries (FR11), strong plums, RT start replay (replay 2), etc. When these are displayed, the player feels extremely hot. Strong Plum and Normal Plum both win when the Plum symbols are aligned on the active line, so they cannot be distinguished from each other. It becomes possible to recognize. When the winning probability of the replay role is RT1 (first probability) and this first bonus is won internally, the winning probability of the replay role will be RT2 from the next game (the winning probability of the replay role is higher than the first probability). The second probability determined by (2) is selected and the lottery is performed (that is, the change probability of the winning probability of the replay role). In the state of RT1, when replay 2 (replay, replay, blue replay) described later is activated, it becomes RT2, but the first bonus may be exactly the same as RT2 after internal winning, but generally these are RT2 is slightly different, and means only about the same RT probability. For example, if a special replay that is not won in RT2 after replay 2 is made to win only in RT2 after the first bonus, it can be discriminated only by the advanced player or the player, so the game performance is improved.

  (2) Second bonus (BB2): The left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (blue 7), and the right drum 2c (blue 7) are aligned on any of the four active lines. Then, the acquired number of games is 0 and the second bonus game is given thereafter. This second bonus ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the prescribed number of inserted bonus games exceeds 2 and the number of payouts exceeds 360. When the second bonus is won internally by lottery and the second bonus flag is set, the second bonus can be established. Note that it is rare that only the second bonus is won alone, and as with the first bonus, it is won simultaneously with the rare small role. Even when the winning probability of the replay role is RT1 (first probability) and the second bonus is won internally, the winning probability of the replay role does not change and the RT1 state is maintained. As a result, even if the winning probability of the replay role remains RT1, a bonus role may be won. Therefore, even if the replay probability is low and the player performs intensely continuous production, the player can continue to have a sense of expectation. .

  (3) Third bonus (BB3): The left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (blue 7), and the right drum 2c (red 7) are aligned on any of the four active lines. Then, the number of acquired games is 0, and a third bonus game is awarded thereafter. This third bonus is ended when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the specified number of inserted third bonus games is two, and the number of payouts exceeds 260. When the third bonus is won internally by the lottery and the third bonus flag is set, the third bonus can be established. In addition, it is rare that only the third bonus is elected alone, and it is elected at the same time with the rare small role like the first bonus. Similarly to the first bonus, if the winning probability of the replay role is RT1 (first probability) and this third bonus is won internally, the winning probability of the replay role will be RT2 from the next game.

  (4) Fourth bonus (BB4): Left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (red 7), right drum 2c (blue 7) are aligned on any of the four active lines. Then, the acquired number is 0 and the fourth bonus game is given thereafter. This fourth bonus is ended when, for example, the winning probability is 1/400, the specified number of inserted games in the fourth bonus game is two, and the number of payouts exceeds 260. When the fourth bonus is won internally by the lottery and the fourth bonus flag is set, the fourth bonus can be established. In addition, it is rare that only the fourth bonus is elected alone, and it is elected at the same time as the rare small role like the first bonus. Similar to the second bonus, even if this fourth bonus is won internally, the winning probability of the replay role does not change and the RT1 state is maintained.

  (5) Fifth bonus (RB1): left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (red 7), right drum 2c (black bar) aligned on any of the four active lines. Then, the number of acquired games is 0, and a fifth bonus game is awarded thereafter. The fifth bonus is ended when, for example, the winning probability is 1/200, the prescribed number of the fifth bonus game is two, three times, or eight games are activated. When the fifth bonus is won internally by lottery and the fifth bonus flag is set, the fifth bonus can be established. In addition, it is rare that only the fifth bonus is elected alone, and it is elected at the same time as the rare small role like the first bonus. Similarly to the first bonus, when the winning probability of the replay role is RT1 (first probability) and this fifth bonus is won internally, the winning probability of the replay role will be RT2 from the next game.

  (6) Sixth bonus (RB2): left drum 2a (blue 7), middle drum 2b (blue 7), right drum 2c (black bar) aligned on any of the four active lines. Then, the acquired number is 0 and the sixth bonus game is awarded thereafter. This sixth bonus is ended when, for example, the winning probability is 1/200 and the prescribed number of inserted bonus games is two, three times, or eight games are activated. When the sixth bonus is won internally by lottery and the sixth bonus flag is set, the sixth bonus can be established. In addition, it is rare that only the sixth bonus is won alone, and as with the first bonus, it is won simultaneously with a rare small role. Similarly to the second bonus, even if the sixth bonus is won internally, the winning probability of the replay role does not change and the RT1 state is maintained.

  That is, if the bonus group is divided according to whether or not the winning probability of the replay role is changed, the first bonus (BB1), the third bonus (BB3), and the fifth bonus (RB1) are the bonus groups A that change. The second bonus (BB2), the fourth bonus (BB4), and the sixth bonus (RB2) become a bonus group B (non-variable opportunity) that is not a variable opportunity. Note that even if the bonus group B is won at the same time as the replay 2 described later, the replay probability does not change.

  (7) Bell (FR1): This is the title when the bell symbols are aligned on the effective line, and the number acquired is 15. When the bell wins in the lottery, one condition device for FR1 (fruit 1) is activated. When FR1 is internally won independently, the bell symbol stops on any one of the active lines regardless of the stop operation sequence of the stop button unit 10, and a winning is always made. In addition, as will be described later, if a plurality of plums for a push order control (a plurality of parts in a plurality of push order regulation small roles) and a bell small role are simultaneously elected, an internal winning is made. When the stop button portion 10 is stopped in the first small role drawing push order in accordance with a plurality of partial push order prescribed small roles, the bell small role is won, while an internal winning plum small role Neither of them wins a prize. In addition, when the stop operation is not performed in the first small role drawing push order (that is, when the stop operation is performed in a first small role kicking push order different from the first small role drawing push order), the bell small role is No winnings at all. However, although one of the winning prizes will be won at a low probability, in most cases it will be displayed when you miss the winning prize or some of the winning prizes. The small symbol koboshi design (RT start 1 to RT start 3), which is a predetermined design, stops on the active line, and the number of medals earned is 0, and the replay probability from RT in the initial state after bonus to RT1 Will migrate. Note that RT is generally low and RT1 is in a low probability state with a replay probability of about 1 / 7.3, and even if it is the same probability or different, it does not change so much. 2 and the replay 4 are not lottery, but the replay 2 is lottery for the first time at RT1. On the other hand, even if the replay 2 and the replay 4 are lottery during the RT in general, if neither the replay 2 nor the replay 4 is prepared, the result will be the same as not having the lottery. You may do it.

  (8) Push order regulation small role (FR2 to FR28: 27 in total): (Plum (red), Plum (blue), Plum (white)) on the left drum 2a, Plum (red) ), Plum (blue), plum (white)), or any of (plum (red), plum (blue), plum (white)) on the right drum 2c stops on the active line, Two. There are a total of 27 (plural) push order regulation small roles, but 6 (plural part) of them are to be won internally at the same time as the bell. If a stop operation is performed in the order of pressing determined uniquely by the role, the bell small role wins. On the other hand, if the stop operation is performed in the order of the first small role kicking, the bell small role is not won at all, either one of the plum small roles is won or the small role Koboshi pattern is on the effective line Is displayed.

  (9) Four-cherry (FR29): This is the title when the cherry symbol stops on the effective line of the middle drum 2b. The number obtained is one per line, but four effective lines pass. Therefore, it becomes a total of 4 sheets. When a cherry is won internally by lottery, one FR29 condition device is activated, and an assist stock lottery (AT stock lottery: range of 0 to 255 times) is performed inside the gaming machine. This four-cherry is a single symbol small part, and no matter what symbol stops on the left drum 2a and the right drum 2c, it is irrelevant to winning. In addition, 4 cherries are a strong 4 cherries that are easy to win simultaneously and AT stock with a weak 4 cherries (double cherries) with a medium bonus winning rate and AT stock winning rate internally. The ratio is 3: 1.

  (10) One cherry (FR30): This is the title when the cherry symbol or the black bar symbol stops on the effective line of the left drum 2a, and the number obtained is one. When a cherry wins in the lottery, one FR30 condition device is activated, and an assist stock lottery (AT stock lottery: range of 0 to 16 times) is performed inside the gaming machine. The probability is quite low at around 1%, and the simultaneous winning probability with bonus is set at 0.5%. When the cherry symbol stops at the lower part of the left drum 2a, the player aims at the cherry symbol on the middle drum 2b to check whether it is a strong four-cherry or not, and then the cherry symbol on the right drum 2c after becoming a double cherry. Aim for the triple cherry. Thereby, a player's expectation can be given.

  (11) Bonus confirmed combination (FR31): When the left drum 2a (blue 7), the middle drum 2b (red 7), and the right drum 2c (black bar) stop on the effective line, the number of winning is 1 Since the bonus is confirmed, the player feels extremely hot. The bonus final combination is also provided to change the reel stop control.

  (12) Replay 1 (Replay 1): This is the title when three replay symbols are aligned on the active line. In response to this, no medals will be acquired, and RP1 and flag will be set in the flag area, and this will be selected alone. In such a case, the replay 1 always operates. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. In addition, if one of the other replays 2 to 4 to be described later is simultaneously selected, any of the replay symbols is displayed and operated according to the pressing order, but it does not trigger the change of RT.

  (13) Replay 2 (replay 2): This is the title when the left drum 2a (replay), middle drum 2b (replay), and right drum 2c (blue replay) are aligned on the active line. On the other hand, no medals are acquired, and if the RP2 / flag is set in the flag area and the player is elected alone, the replay 2 always operates. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. In addition, when Replay 2 is displayed on the active line in the RT1 state (the normal game state with a replay probability of about 1 / 7.3), the replay probability has increased to about 1 / 1.5-1 / 2. Transition to the RT2 state. Replay 1, Replay 2, and Replay 3 to Replay 5 to be described later are duplicated to make a 5 selection push order replay. When the push order is correct, Replay 2 or Replay 4 is activated, The advantageous RT2 state is reached. In addition, when winning in assist stock or assist lottery, the assist function is activated, so that medals can be efficiently acquired. Note that this RT2 state is infinite (the end is not fixed), but when any one of a plurality of small role embroidery symbols that trigger RT fluctuation described later stops on the active line, it falls to the RT1 state.

  (14) Replay 3 (RP3): This is a title when the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (blue replay), and the right drum 2c (replay) are aligned on the active line. The medal is not acquired, and if the RP3 / flag is set in the flag area and the player is elected alone, the replay 3 always operates. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be performed without inserting a new medal.

  (15) Replay 4 (RP4): The title when the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (blue replay), and the right drum 2c (blue replay) are aligned on the active line. No medals are acquired, and RP4 / flag is set in the flag area, and replay 4 is always activated when a single winner is won. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. When the replay 4 is displayed on the active line in the RT1 state (the normal game state having a replay probability of about 1 / 7.3), the state shifts to the RT2 state in which the replay probability has increased to about a half. By repetitively winning Replay 1 to Replay 5, it is possible to make a five-choice push order replay, and when the push order is correct, Replay 2 or Replay 4 is activated, resulting in an RT2 state that is advantageous to the player. In addition, when winning in assist stock or assist lottery, the assist function is activated, so that medals can be efficiently acquired. Note that this RT2 state is infinite, but when any one of the plurality of small-choice symbols is stopped on the active line, it falls to the RT1 state.

  (16) Replay 5 (RP5): The title when the left drum 2a (red 7), the middle drum 2b (replay), and the right drum 2c (replay) are aligned on the active line. No medals are earned and RP5 / flag is set in the flag area, but it is not won alone. By the player's operation of the start lever 9, the next game can be played without inserting medals. Note that the replay 5 is a replay for controlling the pressing order, and is actually displayed only when one of the bonuses is being won internally, otherwise it is not aligned on the active line. Therefore, if the replay 5 is activated in a state where it is unknown whether the bonus is won or not, the player is relieved because the bonus is determined.

  (17) RT start eye 1: (Plum (red), plum (blue), plum (white)) on the left drum 2a, (Plum (red), plum (blue), plum (white) on the middle drum 2b )), When either (bell) or (blue replay) on the right drum 2c stops on the active line, it becomes a small role, and the general gaming state that is the initial state after the RT2 state or the bonus game ends Falls or transitions to the RT1 state. The general gaming state and the RT1 state have almost the same or the same probability that the winning probability of replay is about 1 / 7.3.

  (18) RT start eye 2: Any of (Plum (red), Plum (blue), Plum (white)) on the left drum 2a, (Bell), (Replay) (Blue replay) on the middle drum 2b When any of (Plum (red), Plum (blue), Plum (white)) on the right drum 2c stops on the active line, it becomes a small role, and is in the RT2 state or the initial state after the bonus game ends. Fall or transition from the general gaming state to the RT1 state.

  (19) RT start eye 3: left drum 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (plum (red), plum (blue), plum (white)), right drum 2c (plum (red), When either of the plums (blue) or plums (white)) stops on the active line, it becomes a small role, and falls or transitions from the RT2 state or the initial game state after the bonus game to the RT1 state. .

  FIG. 59 is a combination table of condition devices, and shows a state where a bell combination and a plurality of plum combinations are won simultaneously.

  There are nine types of left bells from 1 to 9. When the left stop button 10a is operated at the first stop, the bell small part wins, while when the other stop button portions 10 are operated for the first stop, The winning combination is only made when the small role is displayed or the plum small portion is retracted. Each left bell wins a bell role and six different plum roles simultaneously as shown.

  There are nine types of middle bells 1 to 9, and when the middle stop button 10b is operated in the first stop, the bell small part wins, while when the other stop button portions 10 are operated for the first stop, The winning combination is only made when the small role is displayed or the plum small portion is retracted. As shown in the figure, each middle bell wins a bell role and six different plum roles simultaneously.

  There are nine types of right bells from 1 to 9. When the right stop button 10c is operated at the first stop, the bell small part wins, while when the other stop button portions 10 are operated for the first stop, The winning combination is only made when the small role is displayed or the plum small portion is retracted. Each right bell wins a bell role and six different plum roles simultaneously as shown.

  FIG. 60 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  For example, when the left bell 1 shown in FIG. 59 is won by random lottery, the condition devices (bell, bell, bell), (red plum, red plum, red plum), (red plum, blue plum, blue, as shown) (Plum), (Red Plum, White Plum, White Plum), (Blue Plum, Red Plum, Red Plum), (Blue Plum, Blue Plum, Blue Plum), (Blue Plum, White Plum, White Plum) The flag is activated. When the player operates the left stop button 10a at the first stop in this state, the main control unit 100 matches the stored control information (the bell symbol is drawn at the first left stop) (the pressing order is “correct”). Therefore, regardless of the order of the second stop operation and the third stop operation after that, only the small bell is always awarded and 15 medals are paid out. That is, the main control unit 100 starts a variable display game that fluctuates three symbol sequences, and any of the 27 (plural) plum small roles which are the bell small role and the push order regulation small role by lottery drawing. Or 6 at the same time. When the stop button portion 10 is operated in the pressing order according to the six (plural part) plum small parts, the bell symbol is stopped on the active line to win the bell small part, as will be described later. At the same time, stop control is performed so that none of the six prize winning combinations won at the same time are won. In addition, each notation of red plum, blue plum, and white plum has the same meaning as plum (red), plum (blue), and plum (white).

  FIG. 60A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the player makes the first stop and presses the left stop button 10a. When the stop operation is performed when the replay No. 8 is at the reference position (the state in which the No. 8 replay can immediately stop at the lower position of the left drum 2a. See FIG. 60B), the main control unit 100 is one of the active lines. The pull-in control is performed so that only one bell symbol stops. In this case, no. 7 is stopped at the lower position of the left drum 2a. No. 5 bell symbol also stops at the top, so avoid it. The bell symbol 5 is stopped at the lower position (see FIG. 60C). As a result, the left drum 2a slides three frames and stops.

  FIG. 61 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  FIG. 61 (A) is the same as FIG. 60 (C). In the state where the left drum 2a is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the lower stage, the player stops the middle stop button 10b in the second stop. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. 5 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (see FIG. 61B). Since the five bell symbols on the middle drum 2b are arranged at intervals of four frames at the farthest, any bell symbol in the pull-in range should be stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b to be in a tempered state. Is possible. The tempered state in FIG. 61 (B) is also referred to as a “reach state” with a predetermined role as a synonym.

  When the player performs a stop operation on the right stop button 10c in the third stop in the tempered state of FIG. The bell symbol 4 is stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 61C). Since the three bell symbols on the right drum 2c are arranged at intervals of 6 frames, any bell symbol can be stopped at the upper or lower stage of the right drum 2c to win a prize (in the figure). Second line).

  FIG. 62 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 62 (A) is the same as FIG. 60 (C), and when the player stops the right stop button 10c in the second stop when the left drum 2a is stopped and the bell symbol is displayed in the lower stage. The main control unit 100 is, for example, No. The bell symbol 4 is stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 62B). When the player performs a stop operation on the middle stop button 10b in the third stop in this tempered state, the main control unit 100, for example, The bell symbol 5 is stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, and the bell role is won on the second line (see FIG. 62C). In other words, when any of the left bells 1 to 9 is won, if the first pressing order is the left stop button 10a, the bell will win regardless of the operation thereafter.

  FIG. 63 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  Similarly, when the left bell 1 shown in FIG. 59 is elected, as shown, the condition devices (bell, bell, bell), (red plum, red plum, red plum), (red plum, blue plum, blue plum) , (Red Plum, White Plum, White Plum), (Blue Plum, Red Plum, Red Plum), (Blue Plum, Blue Plum, Blue Plum), (Blue Plum, White Plum, White Plum) Operate.

  FIG. 63A shows a state where all the drums of the drum unit 2 are rotating. In this state, the main control unit 100 determines that, for example, the middle stop button 10b is set to No. If the stop operation is performed when the replay No. 8 is at the reference position, it is determined that the control information to be stored (the bell symbol is pulled in at the first left stop) does not match (the pressing order is “incorrect answer”). In this case, the main control unit 100 can stop any of the red plum, blue plum, and white plum symbols with two conditional devices instead of the one conditional device. Plum symbols within 5 frames from the middle are stopped at the middle stage of the middle drum 2b (that is, on the effective line). For example, the main control unit 100 starts from the position shown in FIG. The red plum symbol 4 is slid by 3 frames and stopped at the middle stage of the intermediate drum 2b (see FIG. 63C). In this case, since the bell symbol does not stop on the active line, the winning of the bell is lost at this stage.

  FIG.64 and FIG.65 is the schematic diagram which showed the symbol display state of the window part in time series.

  FIG. 64 (A) is the same as FIG. 63 (C). When the middle drum 2b is stopped and the red plum symbol is displayed in the middle, the player stops the left stop button 10a with the second stop. . When the stop operation is performed when the blue 7 of 9 is at the reference position, the main control unit 100 starts from the position shown in FIG. 64 (B), No. which is the symbol of the condition device (red plum, red plum, red plum). The red plum symbol 6 is slid by one frame and stopped on the upper stage of the left drum 2a on the effective line (see FIG. 64C). In the second stop operation of the left stop button 10a, no. When the 13 blue plum symbols can be retracted, the blue plum symbols are similarly stopped on the active line (not shown). Therefore, if the stop operation procedure is wrong, the plum is tempered with a probability of about two thirds.

  FIG. 65 (A) is also the same as FIG. 63 (C). When the middle drum 2b is stopped and the red plum symbol is displayed in the middle stage, the player stops the left stop button 10a with the second stop. No. When the cherry blossom of No. 3 is in the reference position, the main control unit 100 causes the red plum symbol of the condition device (red plum, red plum, red plum) or blue of the condition device (blue plum, red plum, red plum). None of the Plum symbols are within 5 frames and cannot be drawn on the active line, so there are 6 Plum winnings (several small winning roles in multiple push order) ) Is stopped at the upper stage of the left drum 2a on the effective line (see FIG. 65C). Therefore, if the stop operation procedure is wrong, the plum is not tempered with a probability of about one third, and the Koboshi eye symbol of the plum small part is displayed.

  66 and 67 are schematic views showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 66 (A) is the same as FIG. 64 (C) and shows a state in which the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b are stopped and the red plum symbol is tempered. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the third stop, When the blue replay of No. 6 is in the reference position and the stop operation is performed, the main control unit 100 starts from the position shown in FIG. 66 (B), No. which is the symbol of the condition device (red plum, red plum, red plum). The red plum symbol of No. 3 is slid by one frame and stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c on the effective line, and (red plum, red plum, red plum) is won (see FIG. 66C). Therefore, if the plum small combination is mistaken for the stop operation procedure, the plum small combination wins with a probability of about one third.

  FIG. 67 (A) is also the same as FIG. 64 (C), and shows a state where the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b are stopped and the red plum symbol is tempered. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the third stop, When the red 7 of No. 2 is at the reference position (ie, when the No. 3 red plum goes too far), the main control unit 100 cannot pull in the red plum symbol, so FIG. 67 (B) From the position shown, no. The 20 blue replay symbols are slid one frame and stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c on the effective line, and the RT start first symbol is displayed. Therefore, if the Plum small part is tempered by mistake in the stop operation procedure, the small part Koboshi eye symbol (predetermined symbol displayed when the small part is missed) is placed on the active line with a probability of about two-thirds. Stop.

  FIG. 68 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window in time series.

  FIG. 68 (A) is the same as FIG. 65 (C), and shows a state in which the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b are stopped and the small role symbol is symbolized. In this state, the player stops the right stop button 10c at the third stop, When the stop operation is performed when the blue replay of No. 6 is at the reference position, the main control unit 100 starts from the position shown in FIG. The red plum symbol of No. 3 is slid by one frame and stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c on the effective line, and the RT start eye 3 is displayed. In addition, the plum symbol of the right drum 2c at the RT start eye 3 may be any of a red plum symbol, a blue plum symbol, or a white plum symbol. (Predetermined symbol displayed when missing a small combination) stops on the active line.

  FIG. 69 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in time series.

  FIG. 69 (A) shows the same state as FIG. 63 (A), and shows a state where the left bell 1 shown in FIG. 59 is won and all the drums of the drum section 2 are rotating.

  In this state, the main control unit 100 determines that the player has stopped for the first time. If the stop operation is performed when the replay of No. 7 is at the reference position, it is determined that the control information to be stored (the bell symbol is pulled in at the first left stop) does not match (the pressing order is “wrong answer”). In this case, the main control unit 100 can stop any of the red plum, blue plum, and white plum symbols with two conditional devices instead of the one conditional device. Plum symbols within 5 frames from the top are stopped on the upper stage of the right drum 2c (that is, on the active line). For example, the main control unit 100 starts from the position shown in FIG. The red plum symbol 3 is slid by two frames and stopped at the upper stage of the right drum 2c (see FIG. 69C). In this case, since the bell symbol does not stop on the active line, the winning of the bell is lost at this stage.

  The drum stop state after this is the same as in FIGS. 63 to 68, according to the player's stop operation, either the Plum winning combination wins, or the RT starting eye 1 to RT starting point of the small winning combination symbol Since only one of 3 is displayed, the description is omitted (incorporated).

  FIG. 70 is a combination table of condition devices, and shows a state where re-game players are won simultaneously.

  There are five types of push order replays from push order lip 1 to push order lip 5 (abbreviation of “push order replay”).

  When the stop operation is performed in the order of the left stop button 10a at the first stop, the middle stop button 10b at the second stop, and the right stop button 10c at the third stop, the push order lip 1 is replayed 2 (replay, replay, blue Replay: Refer to FIG. 58) is stopped and activated on the active line, but if it is stopped by a different operation procedure, Replay 1 (Replay, Replay, Replay: Refer to FIG. 58) is stopped on the active line. Operate. As described with reference to FIG. 58, when Replay 2 is displayed on the active line in the RT1 state (the normal game state having a replay probability of about 1 / 7.3), the replay probability has increased to about 1/2. Since it shifts to the state, it becomes an advantageous state for the player when the re-game 2 is activated.

  When the stop operation is performed in the order of the left stop button 10a at the first stop, the right stop button 10c at the second stop, and the middle stop button 10b at the third stop, the push order Lip 2 is different while the replay 2 is activated. When the stop operation is performed in the operation procedure, the replay 1 is activated.

  When the stop operation is performed in the order of the middle stop button 10b at the first stop, the left stop button 10a at the second stop, and the right stop button 10c at the third stop, the push order Lip 3 is different while the replay 2 is activated. When the stop operation is performed in the operation procedure, the replay 1 is activated.

  When the stop operation is performed in the order of the middle stop button 10b at the first stop, the right stop button 10c at the second stop, and the left stop button 10a at the third stop, the pushing sequence Lip 4 is different while the replay 2 is activated. When the stop operation is performed in the operation procedure, the replay 1 is activated.

  When the right stop button 10c is stopped in the first stop, the re-play 2 is activated regardless of the operation procedure of the left stop button 10a and the middle stop button 10b. When the operation other than the right stop button 10c is stopped, the replay 1 is activated.

  71 is a state transition diagram, FIG. 71A is a gaming state transition diagram of the main control unit 100, and FIG. 71B is a gaming state transition diagram of the sub-control unit 160.

  In FIG. 71A, a general game (denoted as “general medium” or “general game” in the figure) is started from the next game after the bonus game is completed or the next game after the stage setting value is re-entered. . The replay probability in this general game is about 1 / 7.3. In particular, RT replay (replay 2 and replay 4) is not won at all, or RT replay is won at the same time as the bonus, so the RT2 state (high Probability re-playing state: about 1 / 1.5) is not directly transferred. In the case of winning RT replay during a general game, it is optimal not to draw at all as described above, although it is acceptable if the number is about 1 to 5.

  In the general game (three or one specified number), the push order bell wins internally, and if the stop button 10 stops operation procedure, the small role koboshi design (RT start 1 to RT start 3 design) When displayed on the active line (see FIG. 58), the RT1 state is entered from the next game. The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3 (exactly the same or almost the same probability is adopted), and all the combinations shown in FIG. Become. That is, the general game and the game in the RT1 state are normal games having a replay probability of about 1 / 7.3 and substantially the same. Even if any of the bonus groups B is won internally during a normal game, the replay probability remains low because it is not an opportunity to change the RT, but the replay probability does not increase due to the presence of the bonus group B. However, the possibility of winning a bonus remains, and the expectation continues for that much, which is very effective in improving game playability.

  When RT replay (replay 2 and replay 4) is internally won and activated in the RT1 state, the RT2 state is reached in which the replay probability has increased to approximately 1 / 1.5. Also, in the RT2 state, the winning probability of the small role is about 1/3, so the combined probability of the small role and the replay is 1/1 (100%) or (65526 to 65535) / 65536 (the number of lost numbers is about 1 to 10) ) Note that the hatched portion in FIG. 71A indicates a high probability replaying state.

  When the push order bell wins in the state of RT2 and the stop button 10 is missed in the stop operation procedure, and the small role symbol is displayed on the active line (see FIG. 58), the RT1 state is started from the next game. Falls to. However, if AT stock (assist time stock) remains, when push order lip 1 to push order lip 5 (see FIG. 70) is elected, by notifying the push order that replay 2 is aligned, It is possible to return to the RT2 state again (that is, an operation error can be relieved).

  When bonus group A is internally won in the RT2 state, the replay probability is about 1 / 1.5 in the RT3 state as in RT2, while the RT2 state is maintained when the bonus group B is internally won in the RT2 state. Keep doing. In addition, if any of the bonus group A for RT change opportunity is won internally during normal game, the replay probability is in the RT3 state with a high probability, but at this time RT replay (replay 2 and replay 4) is displayed. If not, the player will be convinced that Bonus Group A will win internally. In other words, the bonus group A is determined when the replay probability is high even though it is not an RT change opportunity. Due to the presence of the bonus group A and the bonus group B, the gameability is improved.

  In FIG. 71 (B), the sub-control unit 160 receives a chance zone (RT2, internal RT2 or internal RT3) when RT replay is activated alone or at the same time as a bonus during normal game. ). When entering this chance zone, regardless of whether or not there is AT stock, when the push order bell is won internally for at least 7 games, the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is announced (for example, “left” “middle” “right”) Announce that you press the button). As a result, the fall to the RT1 state is prevented, and the player's expectation is struck. If there is no AT stock, ART (assist replay time) will not be activated, and then the player will miss the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 to make a small role koboshi design (RT start 1 to RT start 3 When the symbol is displayed on the active line, the state returns to the RT1 state.

  On the other hand, if there is at least one AT stock in the AT lottery in advance by rare small role winning, or the AT lottery performed simultaneously with RT replay winning or bonus winning, ART is activated (shaded area in FIG. 71 (B)) ). This ART game is divided into the first half and the second half. In the first half, the main character runs up the stairs while digesting the game, aiming for a high floor (for example, the 50th floor) where the bonus is fixed, and in the second half the main character is the enemy character If you win the battle, the bonus will be confirmed.

  Now, returning to FIG. 71, a more detailed description will be given.

  When the push order bell is won internally in the general game and the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is missed, the small role koboshi design (RT start 1 to RT start 3 design) is displayed on the active line. The RT1 state is entered from the next game. When RT replay (replay 2 and replay 4: replay probability increasing role) is activated and activated (replay probability increasing symbol is displayed on the active line) in the RT1 state, the replay probability has increased to about 1 / 1.5. It will be in RT2 state. This RT1 state is a so-called “infinite RT”, and the main control unit 100 continues without determining the number of games.

  In the state of RT2, when the push order bell wins internally and the stop button 10's stop operation procedure is missed, and the small role Koboshi eye symbol (replay probability descending symbol) is displayed on the active line, the next game starts RT1. Fall into a state. The RT1 state that falls from this RT2 state is also commonly referred to as “infinite RT”, and the main control unit 100 continues without determining the number of games.

  The main control unit 100 draws all the combinations shown in FIG. 58 using the extracted random numbers, and at least a bonus A combination (first bonus (BB1), third bonus (BB3) and fifth bonus (RB1)) or bonus One of the B combinations (second bonus (BB2), fourth bonus (BB4), and sixth bonus (RB2)) is won internally. Then, when the bonus A combination is won internally, the main control unit 100 increases the replay winning probability in the next and subsequent games, while maintaining the current replay winning probability in the next and subsequent games when the bonus B combination is won internally. .

  As described above, the main control unit 100 continues the RT1 state and the RT2 state without deciding the number of games, whereas the bonus control B and the RT replay (replay probability increasing role) are simultaneously stored in the RT1 state. When winning is selected and a replay probability increasing symbol (replay, replay, blue replay) is displayed on the active line, the current replay winning probability is maintained in the next and subsequent games. In other words, the player can quickly know that the bonus combination B has been won internally by recognizing the maintenance of the low probability state although the replay probability should be increased.

  Similarly, the main control unit 100 continues the RT1 state and the RT2 state without determining the number of games, whereas in the RT1 state, the lottery means must have a bonus A combination and a small combination (FR29 or FR30 must be aligned). When the winning combination: replay probability non-rising role) is simultaneously won internally, a cherry role (replay probability non-rising symbol) is displayed on the active line, and the winning probability of replay is increased in the next game. That is, by recognizing that the replay probability has increased to a high probability state even though the replay probability should not increase, the player can quickly know that the bonus A role has been won internally. .

  Further, the main control unit 100 continues the RT1 state and the RT2 state without determining the number of games, whereas the bonus control B and the RT replay are simultaneously won internally in the RT1 state, and the replay probability is on the active line. If it is a rising symbol but is displayed, the winning probability of the current replay will be maintained in the next and subsequent games, while in the RT1 state, when the lottery means has won the bonus A role and the small role at the same time, Display the cherry role on the active line and increase the winning probability of replay in the next and subsequent games. In other words, by maintaining the low probability state even though the replay probability should be increased, the replay probability should be increased to the high probability state while the replay probability should not be increased, The player can quickly know that Bonus B has been won internally.

  FIG. 72 is a conceptual diagram showing a lottery range for the number of ART games.

  When the special replay combination and bonus combination are simultaneously won internally, the sub-control unit 160 has a game number range that is equal to or greater than a predetermined number (in this case, 50 games) meaning that the bonus combination is won internally. The number of games for which the assist function is activated is drawn out (see FIG. 72A). However, as a matter of course, the lottery result may be less than the predetermined number (for example, about 10 to 49 games). In addition, although the total number of assist games may be drawn by one lottery, the number of assist games may be 50 or more as a result.

  On the other hand, if the special replay combination and bonus combination are not won at the same time, the number of games for which the assist function is activated is selected within the range of the number of games less than the predetermined number (50 games). It does not exceed the number (see FIG. 72B). If the bonus combination is won internally during the subsequent ART game in a state where the bonus combination is not internally won, the number of games that activate the assist function may be redrawn. As a result, the longer the number of ART games continues, the higher the player's expectation of winning a bonus. Moreover, when the number of ART games reaches a predetermined number (50 games), the bonus internal winning is confirmed, and the player knows in advance that the enemy character will be defeated in battle, so the player is impressed with excitement. Not only can you look at the battle with a sense of security.

  Here, returning to FIG. 71 (B), if the second half of the ART is a battle effect and the bonus has been won internally, the “Bonus Confirmation” screen is displayed after the number of ART games in the second half is exhausted, while the bonus is won internally. If not, the game proceeds to the chance zone again after the number of ART games in the latter half is exhausted, and the activation / non-activation of ART is determined and repeated according to the number of ART stocks. When the bonus is not the simultaneous winning with the RT replay, the “bonus confirmation” screen is displayed through a fierce continuous production.

  FIG. 73 is a timing chart of the max bet button.

  As described above, in the RT2 state and the RT3 state, the combined probability of the small role and the replay is almost 100%, and the main control unit 100 preferentially controls the drawing in the order of the replay symbol and the small role symbol. Even if the bonus is won internally, it is very difficult to align the bonus symbol until it is impossible to align the bonus symbol or until it loses.

  Therefore, after displaying the “bonus confirmation” screen, the number of game medals inserted is changed from three to one, thereby changing the random number lottery table of the winning combination and increasing the probability of losing. In this case, in addition to the “bonus confirmation” screen, it is displayed on the liquid crystal so as to bet one. For example, if the replay probability of 3 medals in RT2 or RT3 is 1 / 1.5 and the winning probability of a small role is about 1/3, the loss will be 0%. Since the replay probability is 1 / 7.3, the winning combination probability of the small role is about 1/3, and the loss probability is about 1/2, the bonus symbols can be arranged at a rate of once every two times.

  As a method for betting one medal, it is only necessary to insert one medal from the medal insertion slot. However, in consideration of the convenience of the player, three-times by one simple operation of the max bet button 8 is multiplied by one The applicant has devised a switching method.

  The max bet button 8 is used when a maximum of three stored medals in the medal storage device are inserted by an on-off operation (on for less than 0.8 seconds) in a normal game (general game or RT1). (See FIG. 73A). On the other hand, if you press and hold the Max Bet button 8 to insert 3 cards and continue to press and hold for at least 0.8 seconds (optimum value is in the range of 0.6 to 1 second), 2 of the medals are returned to the receiving tray 15 and the display of the inserted number LED 4a is set to 1 (see FIG. 73B). When one or two sheets are inserted, if the max bet button 8 is operated at the timing shown in FIG. 73A, three sheets are inserted. Further, when one or two sheets are inserted, if the max bet button 8 is operated at the timing shown in FIG. 73 (B), three sheets are inserted, and two of them are returned to the receiving tray 15 by the medal dispensing device 18, and finally One card will be inserted.

  In other words, when the “bonus confirmation” screen is displayed and the player is instructed to bet one, the player can place a bet by simply pressing and holding the max bet button 8 for 0.8 seconds or more. Rich. Further, since it is not necessary to provide a single betting dedicated button separately from the max betting button 8, the manufacturing cost is also reduced.

  As another example, instead of having the medal payout device 18 pay out two coins after inserting three coins by operating the max bet button 8, the main control unit 100 changes the display of the insert number LED 4a from three to one. The number of difference is added to the medal stored number display LED 4b and displayed. Further, when the main control unit 100 adds two pieces of the difference quantity to the medal stored number display LED 4b and reaches the maximum display quantity of 50 pieces, the main control unit 100 causes the medal payout device 18 to have the same number as the remaining number of the difference quantity. Pay out the game media. For example, if the maximum bet button 8 is continuously operated when the display quantity of the medal storage number display LED 4b is 49, the main control unit 100 displays the display quantity of the medal storage number display LED 4b by adding to the maximum display quantity 50. Then, the remaining one is paid out from the medal payout device 18.

  Further, when the max bet button 8 is operated in a state where the number of medals stored in the medal storage number display LED 4b is displayed (0 to 50 in the case of a revolving game machine), the number of inserted medals ( The number of medals inserted from the medal insertion unit 5 including the number of medals inserted) is displayed on the number-of-insertions LED 4a, and the subtracted storage amount obtained by subtracting the amount of insertions from the stored amount of medals displayed by the medal storage number display LED 4b Displayed on the display LED 4b. For example, when the max bet button 8 is operated with the medal storage number display LED 4b displaying “50” and the insertion number LED 4a displaying “1”, the main control unit 100 sets the insertion number LED 4a. The display is changed to “3” which is the maximum number of inserted sheets, and “48” sheets of the subtracted storage quantity obtained by subtracting the input quantity from the stored quantity is displayed.

The main control unit 100 runs a timer (time measuring means), and after the three bets are inserted by turning on the max bet button 8, continuously press and hold for a period of 0.8 seconds or more (the optimum value is 0.6 seconds to 1). When the first range is reached (when the first predetermined time is reached or the first predetermined time is exceeded), two (a part) of the inserted three medals are returned from the medal payout device 18 to the tray 15. Then, the display of the inserted number LED 4a is changed to “1” (the number of remaining game media input after subtracting the paid-out number) (see FIG. 73B). When one or two sheets are inserted, if the max bet button 8 is operated at the timing shown in FIG. 73A, three sheets are inserted. Further, when one or two sheets are inserted, if the max bet button 8 is operated at the timing shown in FIG. 73 (B), three sheets are inserted, and two of them are returned to the receiving tray 15 by the medal dispensing device 18, and finally One card will be inserted. Further, when the maximum bet button 8 continues to be operated and the timer counts 0.4 seconds (0.3 to 0.5 seconds), the number of medals inserted from the medal payout device 18 one by one. Continue paying out until the number becomes “0”.
ART Example 3:
The third embodiment is an improvement over the second embodiment. In order to shift from the general game (general game state) shown in FIG. 71A to the RT1 state, the push order bell wins internally, and the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is missed, so that the small role koboshi eye symbol (RT start) When the first to third RT starting symbols are displayed on the active line, the RT1 state is entered from the next game, but a relatively long number of games (e.g. Average 10-20 games). In order to solve this problem, the applicant of the present application has devised a method in which one bet of medals is used together.

  FIG. 74 is a payout table when an accessory is not operating (during a normal game, the specified number is 1).

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on an effective line (see FIG. 57) corresponding to the number of game medals inserted. In this case, the same is true regardless of the number of inserted sheets.

  The main control unit 100 does not perform the six bonus lotteries of the first bonus to the sixth bonus described in FIG. In addition, although the present embodiment is an extreme example, (7) Bell (FR1), (8) Push order regulation small roles (FR2 to FR28: 27 in total) and (12) Replay 1 (replay) in FIG. Only the lottery of 1) is performed. Only the nine types of left bell, middle bell, and right bell described in FIG. 59 are selected. For example, as a result of the random number lottery by the main control unit 100, the winning order bell is won about 1/2, the replay 1 is about 1 / 7.3, and the loss is about 3/8. As a result, since the small role symbol is displayed in 1/3 (1/2 × 2/3), it is possible to shift from the general game to the RT1 state in about 3 games.

  As a procedure, the main control unit 100 inserts the first lottery table used for the number of three bets (first bet number) by the number of one bet (the second bet number less than the first bet number). By changing to the second lottery table, the probability that the push order small winning combination is won is improved more than the number of three bets (the first bet number). As a result, if the player is instructed to bet one piece after the bonus is finished, he can bet one piece by simply pressing and holding the Max bet button 8 for at least 0.8 seconds, which is about 3 games. Since it can shift to RT1 state in a short time, the conventional feeling of irritation can be reduced.

  More specifically, a variable display game is performed after the bonus game is over, but the winning probability of replay is an arbitrary predetermined probability of about 1 / 7.3 to 1/2, and this state determined in the design stage is a general game. It is called a state. In the general game state variable display game, when the winning combination is drawn, the RT start points 1 to 3 (replay state transition pattern) on the active line when the internal winning bell (FR1) or plum (FR2 to FR28) is missed ) Is displayed, it shifts to the RT1 state where the winning probability of replay is low and the probability of losing is high. In addition, when a lottery is performed in the RT1 state and RT replay (replay probability increasing symbol) is displayed on the active line, the probability that the winning probability of replay will be high and lost without deciding the number of games. If the RT2 state with a low probability is displayed, and the replay probability decreasing symbol is displayed on the active line in the RT2 state, the state shifts to the RT1 state without determining the number of games.

  The main control unit 100 selects a lottery table according to the number of inserted medals, and performs a lottery for a role according to the selected lottery table. When the number of inserted medals is one, the push order bell is internally won with higher probability than when the number of medals is three.

  The main control unit 100 stops the fluctuating symbol sequence (drum unit 2) at a predetermined position in accordance with the operation of the internally selected push order bell and the stop switch, but operates in a procedure that does not allow the winning of the bell role or the plum role. When this is done, the RT start eye 1 to the RT start eye 3 are displayed on the effective line. The sub-control unit 160 instructs the player to bet one by the display effect device 11 and voice in the general game state after the bonus game ends, and the player presses the max bet button 8 for 0.8 seconds or more. A single bet can be made by simply pressing and holding, which is very convenient.

  On the other hand, if the player accidentally bets one piece during ART in the RT2 state, the push order small combination will be won by 1/2, and if the push order small combination is missed, the player falls to the RT1 state. become. Therefore, the sub-control unit 160 bets one piece in the RT2 state, and when the push order small combination is won, the sub control unit 160 navigates (navigates) the push order for winning the push order small combination (in this case, the bell small combination). . In particular, during ART in the RT2 state, the push order is navigated so as not to fall into the RT1 state.

  This point will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. The RT1 state is a state in which the winning probability of replay is low and the probability of losing is high, and when the replay probability increasing symbol (replay, replay, blue replay) is displayed on the active line, it is infinite (game The RT2 state is entered (without determining the number of times). The RT2 state is a state in which the winning probability of replay is higher than the RT1 state and the probability of being lost is low. When the first to the RT start eyes 3) are displayed, the state becomes the infinite RT1 state (without determining the number of games). Then, the swivel type gaming machine accepts three (first prescribed number) medals (game media) or one (second prescribed number) medals, and usually three to four rows of rotating drums (drum unit 2). Or a change display game for changing the reel), and the change of the rotating drum is stopped by operating the stop button unit 10.

  The main control unit 100 selects a lottery table according to the number of inserted medals, and performs a lottery for a role according to the selected lottery table. When the number of inserted medals is one, the sub-control unit 160 causes the internal control of the stop button unit 10 to make the internal winning of the push order bell (replay probability lowering role) with a higher probability than when the number of medals is three. The operation order is announced (assist) according to the selected push order bell.

  When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the notified operation sequence, the main control unit 100 stops the bell symbol at a predetermined position on the active line and wins the bell role. That is, the RT start eye 1 to the RT start eye 3 are not displayed on the effective line.

On the other hand, when the stop button unit 10 is not operated in the notified operation sequence, the main control unit 100 stops the plum symbol at a predetermined position on the active line and wins the winning combination of the plum or on the active line. RT start eye 1 to RT start eye 3 are displayed. That is, the RT start eye 1 to the RT start eye 3 can be displayed on the effective line.
ART Example 4:
FIG. 75 is a drum symbol arrangement table.

  In each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a swirl belt (not shown) on which a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol are drawn so as to make a round at the outer periphery of each drum. It is attached to.

  In each swirl belt, 20 differently arranged symbols are drawn, and the symbols “Red 7”, “Blue 7”, “ "Gold medal", "Bell", "Cherry", "Plum (Red)", "Plum (White)" of various small roles and "Replay", "Blue Replay" and "Black Bar" where replay is activated It is.

  FIG. 76 is a symbol combination display determination diagram.

  When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs a combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of game medals inserted.

  FIG. 76 (B) is an effective line when a prescribed number of game medals are inserted, and in order of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c, the first line (middle stage, middle stage, middle stage: center horizontal line) ) Only during normal operation and SRB (shift regular bonus) operation. The normal time is a time when a “general game” in which the big bonus is in operation and a “normal game” in which the big bonus is not in operation. Therefore, the prescribed number is always 3 throughout the entire game.

  77 and 78 are payout tables at normal time and SRB operation time.

  When all three reels (or drums) are stopped, the main control unit 100 performs combination display determination of symbols related to winning and operation on the active line (see FIG. 76).

  (1) Big Bonus 1 (Type 1 consecutive action device): Left drum 2a (blue 7), middle drum 2b (blue 7), right drum 2c (blue 7) are aligned on the effective line. When stopped, the acquired number is 0 and the big bonus 1 (BB1) is given thereafter. The big bonus 1 ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/16000, the prescribed number of games inserted in the big bonus 1 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 160. When the big bonus 1 is won internally by lottery and the big bonus 1 flag is set, the big bonus 1 can be established. It is rare that only Big Bonus 1 wins alone, and in most cases, it is won at the same time as a cherry (CH), a strong plum or a chance chance, which is called a rare small role. Feels super hot.

  (2) Big Bonus 2 (Type 1 consecutive action device): left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (gold medal), right drum 2c (red 7), or left drum 2a (red) 7) When (red 7) is turned to the middle drum 2b and (replay) is turned to the right drum 2c on the active line and stopped, the obtained number is 0 and the big bonus 2 (BB2) is given thereafter. The big bonus 2 ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/800, the prescribed number of games inserted in the big bonus 2 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 80. When the big bonus 2 is won in the lottery and the big bonus 2 flag is set, the big bonus 2 can be established. It is rare that only Big Bonus 2 wins alone, and in most cases, it will be won at the same time as cherry (CH), a strong plum or chance chance, which is called a rare small role, and when these are displayed, the player Feels super hot.

  (3) Big Bonus 3 (Type 1 consecutive action device): Left drum 2a (red 7), middle drum 2b (red 7), right drum 2c (red 7) are aligned on the active line. When stopped, the acquired number is 0 and the big bonus 3 (BB3) is given thereafter. The big bonus 3 ends when, for example, the winning probability is 1/90, the prescribed number of games inserted in the big bonus 3 is three, and the number of payouts exceeds 50. When the big bonus 3 is won in the lottery and the big bonus 3 flag is set, the big bonus 3 can be established. It is rare that only the Big Bonus 3 wins alone, and in most cases, it is won at the same time as a cherry (CH), a strong plum or a chance, which is called a rare small role. Feels super hot.

  (4) Regular Bonus (RB): A general game in which any of Big Bonus 1 to Big Bonus 3 is in operation, and one of the regular bonuses described later is won internally, and a predetermined symbol is aligned on the active line. When stopped, the number of winnings will be 0 and a shift / regular bonus (shift RB or SRB) will be given after that. It is. This shift / regular bonus can be won internally only during the above big bonus, and the replay probability is shifted to a replay state determined by the shift / regular bonus won internally.

  The regular bonus combination symbols are: SRB1 for left drum 2a (black bar), middle drum 2b (plum (white)), right drum 2c (gold medal), SRB2 for left drum 2a (black bar), middle drum 2b (gold medal), right drum 2c (plum (white)), SRB3 left drum 2a (blue 7), middle drum 2b (plum (white)), right drum 2c (gold medal) and SRB4 left The drum 2a is (blue 7), the middle drum 2b is (gold medal), and the right drum 2c is (plum (white)). The main control unit 100 maintains the replay probability in the replay state determined by the SRB when the big bonus ends while any of the SRB1 to SRB4 is in the internal winning.

  (5) Replay 1 (replay 1): The title when either the replay symbol or the blue replay symbol is aligned on the active line for each drum, and no medal is obtained for this, but before the game starts Since medals are automatically inserted, the next game can be performed by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When replay 1 is won internally by random lottery, RP1 / flag is set in the flag area, and any one of the eight types of combination symbols is displayed, and even if replay 1 is activated, the replay probability does not change. In addition, when internal winning is performed simultaneously with a plurality of combinations (winning patterns) of replay 1 and other replays 2 to 7 to be described later, stop control is performed so that any one replay combination symbol is displayed according to the pressing order.

  (6) Replay 2 (replay 2): left drum 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (bell), right drum 2c (gold medal / plum (red) / plum (white)) on the active line In this case, the medals are obtained (three kinds of symbol combinations), and medals are not acquired for this, but medals are automatically inserted before the game starts. When replay 2 is won internally by random lottery, RP2 / flag is set in the flag area, and any one of the three types of combination symbols is displayed, and even if replay 2 is activated, the replay probability does not change. In addition, since the replay symbol or the blue replay symbol is displayed in a straight line on the lower stage (for example, see the third line in FIG. 14), there is no sense of incongruity for the player.

  (7) Replay 3 (Replay 3): Name (pattern combination) when the left drum 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (replay / blue replay), and right drum 2c (cherry) are aligned on the effective line In contrast, no medal is acquired, but a medal is automatically inserted before the game starts. When replay 3 is won by random lottery, RP3 / flag is set in the flag area, and one of the two types of replay 3 combination symbols is displayed, and even if replay 3 is activated, the replay probability varies do not do. In addition, since the replay symbol or the blue replay symbol is displayed in a straight line on the upper right side (for example, see the fifth line in FIG. 14), there is no sense of incongruity for the player. Since Replay 1 to Replay 3 do not change the replay probability, they are called normal replays.

  (8) Replay 4 (Replay 4): Name when the left drum 2a is (Replay / Blue Replay), the middle drum 2b is (Replay / Blue Replay), and the right drum 2c is (Bell) on the active line. (4 types of symbol combinations), and medals are not obtained for this, but medals are automatically inserted before the game starts. When replay 4 is won internally by random lottery, the RP4 flag is set in the flag area, and any one of the four combinations of replay 4 is displayed and if replay 4 is activated, the replay probability will change. (Tumble replay). When the replay 4 is activated and the replay probability is changed, the replay probability is generally in a low probability state of about 1 / 7.3, which is disadvantageous for the player.

  (9) Replay 5 (Replay 5): Name when the left drum 2a is (Replay / Blue Replay), the middle drum 2b is (Replay / Blue Replay), and the right drum 2c is (Cherry) on the active line. (4 types of symbol combinations), and medals are not obtained for this, but medals are automatically inserted before the game starts. When replay 5 is won internally by random lottery, RP5 / flag is set in the flag area, and any one of the four combinations of replay 5 is displayed and if replay 5 is activated, the replay probability varies. (Preparatory replay) When the replay 5 is activated to change the replay probability, the replay probability is generally in the middle probability state of about 1/3, which is somewhat advantageous for the player.

  (10) Replay 6 (Replay 6): Name when the left drum 2a is (bell), the middle drum 2b (replay / blue replay), and the right drum 2c (bell) are aligned on the active line (design combination) In contrast, no medal is acquired, but a medal is automatically inserted before the game starts. When replay 6 is won internally by random lottery, the RP6 flag is set in the flag area, and if one of the two types of replay 6 combination symbols is displayed and replay 6 is activated, the replay probability will change. (Replay) When the replay 6 is activated to change the replay probability, the replay probability becomes a high probability state of about 1 / 1.5, which is very advantageous for the player.

  (11) Replay 7 (replay 7): (Plum (red)) on the left drum 2a, (Bell) on the middle drum 2b, (Gold medal / Plum (red) / Plum (white)) on the right drum 2c This is the name of the combination (three types of symbol combinations) when they are aligned on top, and medals are not obtained for this, but medals are automatically inserted before the game starts. When replay 7 is won internally by random number lottery, RP7 / flag is set in the flag area, and any one of three types of combination symbols is displayed, and even if replay 2 is activated, the replay probability does not change. If you aim for all 7 red and 7 blue symbols on each drum, the 7 red or 7 blue symbols will be displayed in a straight line on the top (see, for example, the second line in FIG. 14), and the AT stock will be fixed. It will be a very hot moment for the person. This replay 7 does not change the replay probability, but is called AT stock replay because the AT stock is fixed.

  Reference is now made to FIG.

  (12) Plum (AT lottery combination): This is the title when each drum has either a plum (red) symbol or a plum (white) symbol on the active line, and the number obtained is nine. When a plum is won internally by lottery, one plum condition device is activated, and an assist stock lottery (AT stock lottery: range of 0 to 255 times) is performed inside the gaming machine. It is rare that only a big bonus is won alone, and in most cases, the inside of a plum called a rare combination, a cherry (CH), which will be described later, or a weak chance (FR1) or a strong chance (FR2). Since they are won, when these are displayed, the player feels extremely hot.

  (13) Cherry (CH: AT lottery role): This is the title when the cherry symbol stops on the effective line (center position) of the left drum 2a, and the number obtained is two. When a cherry wins in the lottery, one CH condition device is activated, and an assist stock lottery (AT stock lottery: a range of 0 to 255 times) is performed inside the gaming machine. Cherry is a single symbol small part, and no matter what symbols stop on the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c, it is irrelevant to winning. This cherry is the strongest winning role called “Single Choi”, and the winning probability of big bonus and AT stock lottery is as high as 75%, so just displaying this will make the player extremely hot.

  (14) Single piece 1 (FR1: weak chance): left drum 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (red 7 / blue 7 / black bar), right drum 2c (gold medal / plum (red) / Nine types of plum (white)) or six types (replay / blue replay) on the left drum 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (gold medal / plum (red) / plum (white)), and right drum 2c (replay / blue replay) When a total of 15 types) are stopped on the active line, the number acquired is one. Since the single player 1 wins at the same time as any of BB1 to BB3 with a low probability to a medium probability, the player will be excited when this is displayed.

  (15) Single-player role 2 (FR2: strong chance): left drum 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (red 7 / blue 7 / black bar), right drum 2c (red 7 / blue 7 / black) Nine types (bar), left bell 2a (bell), middle drum 2b (gold medal / plum (red) / plum (white)), right drum 2c (cherry) are available (12 types in total) When you stop on the line, you get one. Since the single player 1 wins at the same time as any of BB1 to BB3 with medium probability to high probability, when this is displayed, the player feels extremely hot.

  (16) Bell (Bell 1): The title when the bell symbols are aligned on the effective line for each drum. When the bell wins in the lottery, one conditional device for the bell 1 is activated. When Bell 1 is elected alone, the bell symbol stops on the active line regardless of the stop operation sequence of the stop button unit 10, and a prize is always awarded.

  (17) Push order control bell (Bell 2 to Bell 11): This is the title when the symbols shown in FIG. 78 are aligned on the active line, and the number of acquired coins is 15. When a plurality of the bells 1 and the bells 2 to 11 of the pushing order are selected at the same time, the main control unit 100 displays a symbol of any one of the bells on the active line in accordance with the pushing order to win, Stop control is performed to display the target symbol. When the push order control bell wins, the bell design is lower right (see the fourth line in FIG. 14) for the bell 2, the bell design is upper right (see the fifth line in FIG. 14) for the bell 3, and the bell 4 to the bell. 11, since the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line on the upper stage (see the second line in FIG. 14), there is no sense of incongruity for the player.

  As the bell-shaped symbol for the role of the bell, the symbol 1 is the left drum 2a (replay / blue replay), the middle drum 2b (replay / blue replay), and the right drum 2c (gold medal / plum (red) / plum). (White)), twelve types 2 (left) 2a (replay / blue replay), middle drum 2b (bell), right drum 2c (red 7 / blue 7 / black bar), There are 24 types in total. There are 24 types in total: 3 for the left drum 2a (bell), 6 for the middle drum 2b (replay / blue replay) and 6 for the right drum 2c (red 7 / blue 7 / black bar). When the first to third eyes are displayed on the active line, the main control unit 100 changes the replay probability to the replay normal state (replay probability is about 1 / 7.3), which is disadvantageous for the player. .

  FIG. 79 is a combination table of push-order bell condition devices.

  The push order bell means that when the operation order of the stop button part 10 (the push order of the stop button part 10) is correct, the bell small part is always won, whereas when the answer is incorrect, the bell small part is won. It means that the winning role sometimes has a display of Koboshi. There are winning patterns of push order bell 1 to push order bell 12.

  When the push order bell 1 wins in the random number lottery, the condition device (flag) bell 2 + bell 4 + bell 6 + bell 9 + bell 11 stands simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, if the pressing order of the stop button portion 10 is the left stop button 10a → the middle stop button 10b → the right stop button 10c, the bell 2 is always won (see the shaded portion of the push order bell 1 in the figure). If the pressing order of the stop button portion 10 is the left stop button 10a → the right stop button 10c → the middle stop button 10b, the bell 2 or another bell (bell 4+) depending on the operation timing of the right stop button 10c and the middle stop button 10b. Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell 11) wins or the eye is displayed.

  Further, when the first stop operation is the middle stop button 10b as the pressing order of the stop button unit 10, another bell (Bell 4 + Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell) depending on the operation timing of the left stop button 10a and the right stop button 10c. 11) wins or the eye is displayed, but Bell 2 does not win. When the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c as the pressing order of the stop button unit 10, another bell (Bell 4 + Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell 11) is operated according to the operation timing of the left stop button 10a and the middle stop button 10b. Wins or a squeaky eye is displayed, but Bell 2 does not win. The push order bell 2 is the same as the push order bell 1 and the details are as shown in the figure, and the description is omitted. It should be noted that a plurality of the same kind of push order bells are provided in order to prevent a target from being shot, thereby making it impossible to capture.

  When the push order bell 3 wins in the random number lottery, the condition devices (flags) Bell 2 + Bell 4 + Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell 11 + FR1 stand simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, if the pressing order of the stop button portion 10 is the left stop button 10a → the right stop button 10c → the middle stop button 10b, the bell 2 is always won (see the hatched portion of the push order bell 3 in the figure). If the pressing order of the stop button portion 10 is the left stop button 10a → the middle stop button 10b → the right stop button 10c, the bell 2 or another bell (bell 4+) depending on the operation timing of the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10c. Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell 11) wins or the eye is displayed.

  Further, when the first stop operation is the middle stop button 10b as the pressing order of the stop button unit 10, another bell (Bell 4 + Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell) depending on the operation timing of the left stop button 10a and the right stop button 10c. 11) wins or the eye is displayed, but Bell 2 does not win. When the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c as the pressing order of the stop button unit 10, another bell (Bell 4 + Bell 6 + Bell 9 + Bell 11) is operated according to the operation timing of the left stop button 10a and the middle stop button 10b. Wins or a squeaky eye is displayed, but Bell 2 does not win. The push order bell 4 is the same as the push order bell 3, and the details are as shown in the figure, and the description thereof is omitted. It should be noted that a plurality of the same kind of push order bells are provided in order to prevent a target from being shot, thereby making it impossible to capture.

  When the push order bell 5 wins in the random number lottery, the conditional device (flag) bell 1 + bell 4 + bell 11 stands simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, if the first stop operation is the middle stop button 10b as the pressing order of the stop button section 10, the bell 1 is always won (see the hatched portion of the pressing order bell 5 in the figure). When the stop button 10 is pressed in the order of left stop button 10a → intermediate stop button 10b → right stop button 10c, left stop button 10a → right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b, or first stop operation is right In the case of the stop button 10c, another bell (Bell 4 + Bell 11) wins or a squeak is displayed depending on the operation timing of the stop button unit 10, but the bell 1 does not win. The push order bell 6 to the push order bell 8 are the same as the push order bell 5, and the details are as shown in the figure, and the description thereof is omitted. It should be noted that a plurality of the same kind of push order bells are provided in order to prevent a target from being shot, thereby making it impossible to capture.

  When the push order bell 9 wins in the random number lottery, the condition device (flag) bell 1 + bell 4 + bell 11 + FR1 stands simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, if the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c as the pressing order of the stop button section 10, the bell 1 is always won (see the hatched portion of the pressing order bell 9 in the figure). When the stop button 10 is pressed in the order of left stop button 10a → intermediate stop button 10b → right stop button 10c, left stop button 10a → right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b, or the first stop operation is in progress In the case of the stop button 10b, another bell (Bell 4 + Bell 11) wins or a squeak is displayed depending on the operation timing of the stop button unit 10, but the bell 1 does not win. The push order bell 10 and the push order bell 12 are the same as the push order bell 9, and the details are as shown in the figure, and the description thereof is omitted. It should be noted that a plurality of the same kind of push order bells are provided in order to prevent a target from being shot, thereby making it impossible to capture.

  FIG. 80 is a combination table of replay condition devices.

  When the normal replay is won in the random number lottery, the RP1 + RP2 + RP3 of the condition device (flag) stands at the same time (winning pattern). At that time, any one of RP1, RP2 and RP3 operates regardless of the order of operation of the stop button unit 10. RP means replay or replay (hereinafter the same).

  When the AT stock replay is won in the random lottery, the condition device (flag) RP2 + RP7 stands simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, regardless of the order of operation of the stop button section 10, either RP2 or RP7 is activated, but when all the red 7 and blue 7 symbols are aimed at each drum, RP7 is activated, The red 7 symbol or blue 7 symbol is displayed in a straight line on the upper stage (for example, see the second line in FIG. 14), and the AT stock is determined.

  When the push order replay 1 is won in the random number lottery, the condition device (flag) RP1 + RP3 + RP5 stands simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, if the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a as the pressing order of the stop button unit 10, RP1 is activated. Further, if the stop button unit 10 is pressed in the middle stop button 10b → the left stop button 10a → the right stop button 10c, RP5 (preparation replay) operates, while RP3 operates in other operations. When RP5 is activated, the replay probability is changed to a medium probability state of about 1/3, and a preparation mode for starting ART is set. Note that the push order replay 2 to the push order replay 4 are the same as the push order bell 1, and the details are as shown in the figure, and the description thereof is omitted. That is, when the pressing order of the stop button unit 10 is the push order replay 2, the middle stop button 10b → the right stop button 10c → the left stop button 10a, and when the push order replay 3 is the right stop button 10c → the left stop. With the button 10a → intermediate stop button 10b, in the case of push order replay 4, RP5 is activated by the right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b → left stop button 10a, while RP3 is activated by other operations.

  When the push replay 5 is won by random number lottery, the condition device (flag) RP1 + RP4 + RP6 stands simultaneously (winning pattern). At that time, when the first stop operation is the left stop button 10a as the pressing order of the stop button unit 10, RP4 (falling replay) is activated. Further, if the stop button unit 10 is pressed in the middle stop button 10b → the left stop button 10a → the right stop button 10c, RP6 (activation replay) is activated, and RP4 is activated by other operations. When RP6 is activated, the replay probability is changed to a high probability state of about 1 / 1.5, and the ART mode is set. Note that the push order replay 6 to the push order replay 8 are the same as the push order bell 5, and the details are as shown in the figure, and the description thereof is omitted. That is, when the pressing order of the stop button portion 10 is the push order replay 6, the middle stop button 10b → the right stop button 10c → the left stop button 10a, and when the push order replay 7 is the right stop button 10c → the left stop. In the case of the button 10a → intermediate stop button 10b and in the push order replay 8, RP6 is activated by the right stop button 10c → intermediate stop button 10b → left stop button 10a, while RP4 is activated by other operations.

  FIG. 81 is a combination table of condition devices for each replay state.

  (1) Initial replay state: After the stage setting of the play rate, after the RP4 is activated in normal game, after the big bonus symbol is displayed, or after the regular bonus symbol is displayed, the replay probability changes And it will be in this replay state. When a replay is won by random number lottery, RP1 + RP2 + RP3 of the condition device is simultaneously activated, and any one of them operates. The replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3.

  (2) Normal replay state: The replay probability is changed after the symbol for the bell role in the normal game (the symbol for the winning symbol that the lottery means has selected) is displayed, and this replay state is entered. When a replay is won by random number lottery, as a winning pattern, any set of condition devices of RP1 + RP3 + RP5, RP1 + RP2 + RP3 + RP5, RP1 + RP3 + RP5 + RP7, or RP1 + RP2 + RP3 + RP5 + RP7 stands simultaneously, and any one replay is activated. The replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3.

  (3) Preparation replay state: After the RP5 symbol is displayed in the normal game, the replay probability is changed, and this replay state is established. When a replay is won by random number lottery, as a winning pattern, any one of the condition devices of RP1 + RP4 + RP6, RP1 + RP2 + RP4 + RP6, RP1 + RP4 + RP6 + RP7, or RP1 + RP2 + RP4 + RP6 + RP7 stands at the same time, and any one replay is activated. The replay winning probability is about 1/3.

  (4) AT replay state: After the RP6 symbol is displayed in the normal game, the replay probability changes, and this replay state is entered. When a replay is won by random number lottery, as a winning pattern, any one of the condition devices of RP1 + RP2 + RP3 or RP2 + RP7 stands at the same time, and any one replay is activated. The replay winning probability is about 1 / 1.5. In particular, when RP2 + RP7 is won, the addition of AT stock is confirmed, and the number of AT stock is added by the number of lotteries.

  (5) BB internal replay state: After a big bonus is won internally in a normal game, the replay probability changes and this replay state is entered. When a replay is won by random number lottery, RP1 + RP2 + RP3 of the condition device is simultaneously activated, and any one of them operates. The replay winning probability is about 1/3.

  (6) RB internal replay state: In a general game in which the big bonus is operating, the replay probability is changed after the regular bonus (SRB) is won internally, and this replay state is entered. When a replay is won by random number lottery, as a winning pattern, any one of the condition devices of RP1 + RP2 + RP3, RP1 + RP4 + RP6, RP1 + RP2 + RP4 + RP6, RP1 + RP4 + RP6 + RP7, RP1 + RP2 + RP4 + RP6 + RP7, or RP2 + RP7 is activated simultaneously, and any one replay is activated. The replay winning probability is about 1 / 1.5. In particular, when RP2 + RP7 is won, the addition of AT stock is confirmed, and the number of AT stock is added by the number of lotteries.

  FIG. 82 is a replay state transition diagram in the base game.

  The main control unit 100 shifts to step S300 after changing the step set value (including retyping to the same value), displaying the RP4 symbol in the normal game, displaying the big bonus symbol, or displaying the regular bonus symbol. The normal game is played in the initial replay state where the replay probability is about 1 / 7.3. In this initial replay state, there is only (RP1 + RP2 + RP3) simultaneous winning as a winning pattern for replay, so RP5 and RP6 are not displayed. Is displayed on the active line, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S320 and changes to the normal replay state in which the replay probability is about 1 / 7.3. Migrate to

  When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S320 and displays the RP5 symbol in the normal game in the normal replay state (step S330), the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S340. If the RP5 symbol is not displayed, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S320.

  The main control unit 100 proceeds to Step S340 and proceeds to Step S340 when a small role symbol or a lost symbol (other display: Step S350) is displayed in the normal game in the preparation replay state. On the other hand, when any one of the eyelids 1 to 3 is displayed on the active line in step S360, the process proceeds to step S320 and is changed to the normal replay state (falling). When the RP4 symbol is displayed on the active line in step S370, the process proceeds to step S300 and is changed to the initial replay state (falling). In this embodiment, the fall is made to the deepest initial replay state, but it may be changed to the normal replay state as in the case of the symbol pattern display. That is, when the RP4 symbol is displayed on the active line in the normal game in the preparation replay state, the process may move to step S320 and be changed to the normal replay state.

  On the other hand, when the RP6 symbol is displayed on the active line in step S380, the process proceeds to step S382, where the replay probability is changed to an AT replay state with a high probability of about 1 / 1.5. The sub-control unit 160 determines by lottery whether or not to guide the operation order of a plurality of stop switches provided, and in the case of winning, the navigation / stock number lottery (navigation / stock number) within a range of 1 to 128 sets. Lottery). The sub-control unit 160 guides the operation sequence of the stop switch only for 50 games in one stock. If a big bonus or a rare small role (cherry, plum, chance chance, etc.) is won during that time, the number of added games and additional navigation Stock lottery will also be held.

  When any one of the eyelids 1 to 3 is displayed on the active line in the AT replay state in step S382 (step S384), the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S320 and changes to the normal replay state. . Further, when the RP4 symbol is displayed on the active line in step S386, the process proceeds to step S300 to change to the initial replay state.

  If there is a navigation / stock in this AT replay state, the sub-control unit 160 selects a stop switch for winning the bell 1 or the bell 2 shown in FIG. Guide the sequence of operations. Thereby, it does not fall into a normal replay state. Further, when the push order replay is internally won in step S386, the operation order of the stop switch for winning (actuating) the RP6 shown in FIG. 80 is guided. Thereby, it does not fall into the initial replay state.

  Although there are navigation / stock and AT remaining games, the player may fall into the initial replay state or the normal replay state due to a player's operation error. In this case, the sub-control unit 160 sets the RP5 (preparation). When the replay or RP6 (AT replay) is won, the operation sequence of the stop switch for operating those replays is guided.

  FIG. 83 is a replay state transition diagram in the big bonus game.

  When the big bonus is won internally (BB condition device is activated), the main control unit 100 sets the BB internal replay state in which the replay probability is about 1/3 in step S400, and then plays the general game by the player's operation. When the BB symbol is displayed on the active line in S405, the process proceeds to step S410 to operate the BB, while if the BB symbol is not displayed, the process proceeds to step S400.

  When BB is activated in step S410, the main control unit 100 sets the replay probability to the initial replay state in step S420 and plays a general game in BB, and RB is won internally in step S425 (condition device operation of shift RB). Then, while the process proceeds to step S430, if the RB does not win internally, the process proceeds to step S420.

  In step S430, the main control unit 100 enters the RB internal replay state with a replay probability of about 1 / 1.5, and then performs a general game by the player's operation, and the number of game medals obtained in step S435 exceeds a predetermined number. If not, the process proceeds to step S440. If exceeded, the big bonus is terminated and the process proceeds to step S470. If the SRB is currently in the internal winning state, the state is canceled and the process ends (that is, shift). RB condition device is lowered to finish.)

  When the RB symbol is displayed on the active line in step S440, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S450 and activates the RB. On the other hand, if the RB symbol is not displayed, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S430.

  When the RB is activated in step S450, the main control unit 100 sets the replay probability to the initial replay state in step S460 and plays the RB game. If the RB end condition is satisfied in step S465, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S420. If the number of acquired game medals exceeds a predetermined number during the RB game in step S465, the big bonus is terminated and the process proceeds to step S470.

  When the main control unit 100 finishes the big bonus and proceeds to step S470, the main control unit 100 maintains the replay state as it is. If the SRB is currently selected in step S480, the main control unit 100 proceeds to (2) in FIG. If not elected, the process moves to (1) in the figure. This RB internal replay state is almost the same as the preparation replay state, and any one of the push order replay 5 to the push order replay 8 shown in FIG. 80 is won with high probability, so the ART is set to the AT replay state. In the case of activation, the operation sequence of the stop switch for operating RP6 (activation replay) is guided, while in the case of falling to the initial replay state, the operation immediately falls without guiding the operation sequence. This point is also a point having an especially inventive step.

  FIG. 84 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure up to the start of ART.

  There are a normal route (refer to the flow on the left side of the figure) and a BB route (refer to the flow on the right side of the figure) as a procedure until the ART is started.

  When the normal game is started, the sub-control unit 160 determines either the normal mode (step S500) or the high probability mode (step S510) by lottery, and a specific opportunity by random number lottery performed by the main control unit 100 in step S520. When the winning combination is won internally, a mode shift lottery is performed in step S522. For example, when a rare small combination (cherry, plum, chance chance, etc.) is won as a specific opportunity, a transition lottery to the high probability mode is performed, and when a replay is won, a transition lottery to the normal mode is performed. In this high probability mode, ART (AT Navi Stock) is elected with a high probability of about 10 to 100 times compared to the normal mode, so that one of many lottery tables is selected. It has become.

  If the ART lottery is not won in step S524, the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S500 or step S510. On the other hand, when the sub-control unit 160 is won, the ART stock number lottery (step S526) and the precursor game number lottery (step S528) are performed. The number of precursor games is the number of games required to notify the player that ART has been won, and the transition to the precursor mode of step S530 is continued, and intense effects continue from about 8 games to about 32 games.

  In step S532, the sub-control unit 160 performs the ART winning confirmation effect, waits for any of the push order replay 1 to the push order replay 4 shown in FIG. Navigates (guides) the operating sequence of the stop button unit 10 (stop switch) that wins (activates). The main control unit 100 notifies the sub-control unit 160 of necessary information such as a random number lottery result, an internal replay state, a rotation state and a stop state of the drum unit 2, and a player's operation state each time using a command. In addition, when any of the push order replay 5 to the push order replay 8 is internally won in the preparation replay state, the sub-control unit 160 navigates the operation order of the stop button unit 10 in which the RP 6 wins, and starts ART in step S540. To do.

  The sub-control unit 160, when a specific opportunity is won internally by random number lottery at step S542, performs an ART extra lottery (number of games and additional navigation stock) at step S544. The sub-control unit 160 determines whether or not the ART termination condition is satisfied in step S546, and if not satisfied, the process proceeds to step S542. If satisfied, the sub-control unit 160 determines the normal mode or the high-accuracy mode by lottery in step S548. Then, the process proceeds to step S500 or step S510.

  Next, the BB route will be described. When the BB is won internally by the random number lottery performed by the main control unit 100 in the normal game (step S550), the sub-control unit 160 performs the mode transition lottery in step S552. When the sub-control unit 160 enters the BB internal winning mode in step S554, the sub-control unit 160 gives a hot game effect for several games and then notifies the player of the selected BB symbol.

  After the BB is activated by the player's operation of the stop button unit 10 (winning: step S556) and the SRB is won internally (step S558), the sub-control unit 160 performs an ART lottery in step S560. Further, the sub-control unit 160 performs an ART lottery when a rare small role (cherry, plum, AT replay, chance chance, etc.) is won in the RB internal replay state (step S562), and the number of acquired game medals exceeds a predetermined number. If so, the big bonus is terminated (step S564). If there is ART stock (step S566), the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S540 and starts ART. If there is no ART stock (step S568), the sub-control unit 160 sets the winning mode in step S552, Move to start (1).

  FIG. 85 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of ART stock notification. 86 to 88 (A) are schematic views of the effect screen displayed by the display effect device, and FIGS. 88 (B) to 88 (D) show the symbol display states of the windows in time series. It is a schematic diagram. 89 to 92 are schematic diagrams of effect screens displayed by the display effect device.

  The sub-control unit 160 notifies the display effect device 11 (video display device) that the ART combination has been won by the winning video during the bonus game shown in steps S556 to S570 in FIG. In addition, when a bonus combination is won at the same time as a small combination or replay during a general game, a similar winning image may be notified (detailed explanation is omitted).

  When the big bonus (BB) starts (activates), the sub-control unit 160 rotates the drum unit 2 (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c) on which a plurality of symbols are drawn in step S600, and draws lots. The internal winning combination is determined in advance, and before the stop button unit 10 (the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c) can be operated, it is superimposed on a background image on which many characters appear, The display winning device 11 is displayed in the lower right position.

  FIG. 86A is a display screen when the replay is won, and FIG. 86B is a display screen when the bell is won. Regardless of the operation order of the stop button unit 10, the player always operates or wins. FIG. 87 (A) is a display screen when cherry is won, and FIG. 87 (B) is a display screen when plum is won. When the stop button unit 10 is stopped for each symbol, these rare small roles are displayed. Won the prize. When the rare small combination is won internally, ART lottery (stock and extra game number lottery) is performed during BB (see step S562 in FIG. 84).

  FIG. 87 (A) shows a display screen when one of SRB1 to SRB4 (see FIG. 77) is won. Three red surprise marks are displayed on the display effect device 11 to avoid the operation of the SRB. , Instruct the player to aim red 7 symbol implicitly. When the player stops the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b while aiming at the red 7 symbol upward, the player stops as if the red 7 symbol is on the upper stage of the ineffective line (see FIG. 88 (B)). . As a result, the operation pattern of the SRB does not stop evenly on the effective line.

  If the selected special character is any one of SRB1 to SRB3, when the player operates the right stop button 10c with the red 7 symbol on the upper side in the state of FIG. 88 (B), the upper part of the ineffective line The red 7 symbols are aligned and stopped in a horizontal line, and each symbol flashes to notify the ART winning (see FIG. 88C). The sub-control unit 160 determines the number of ART stocks between 1 and 128 by lottery (see step S560 in FIG. 84). Note that different ART lottery tables (TBL1, TBL2, TBL3) are selected according to the selected SRB1 to SRB3, and the expected value of the ART stock number is determined in the order of SRB1> SRB2> SRB3.

  On the other hand, if the selected special character is SRB4, even if the player operates the right stop button 10c to stop the right stop button 10c while aiming the red 7 pattern in the state of FIG. 88 (B), it slides down to the red 7 The symbols are not aligned (see FIG. 88D). In the case of SRB4, the ART lottery is basically not performed, but the ART lottery may be performed with a very low probability (about 1 to 5%). In addition, the number of surprise marks, the selection probability of the surprise mark display lottery table is distributed so that a plurality of SRB1 to SRB3 are selected and one is easily selected in the case of SRB4. The player can be given more excitement and stimulation and impression when they are all together.

  FIG. 89 (A) is a bonus game in-progress screen. The displayed ART STOCK number is 1, the total payout number is 111, and out of 80 payout numbers in the BB game, 40 are payouts. In this game, it is displayed that the bell small role was won internally.

  In step S605, the sub-control unit 160 determines whether a screen change condition from the bonus game screen to the challenge screen is satisfied (see FIG. 89A). This screen change condition is true or false that the bonus game ends with a predetermined number of games, and the condition is satisfied when true. For example, if the maximum number obtained is 15 and the remaining payout number is 16 to 30, the bonus game may be terminated with the remaining 2 games, so the screen change condition is satisfied. On the other hand, if the remaining payout number is 31 or more, there is no possibility that the bonus game will be completed with the remaining two games, so the screen change condition is not satisfied.

  When the sub-control unit 160 determines that the screen change condition is satisfied in step S605 after the bell small role shown in FIG. 89 (A) has won, the process proceeds to step S610 to display the ART challenge notification screen (FIG. 89). 89 (B)). In the case of FIG. 89 (B), it is displayed that the number of STOCKs on the display ART is one, the total number of payouts is 126, and 55 out of 80 payouts in the BB game are paid out. ing. Therefore, since the BB game is completed with the remaining 25 cards, the number of remaining games until the end of the BB is 2 games at the shortest. Note that the number of internal STOCKs in ART is equal to or larger than the number of displayed STOCKs.

  When the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S615, the sub-control unit 160 determines whether the difference in the display STOCK number from the internal STOCK number is 0, 1-2, or 3 or more, and selects the rotating lamp lottery table according to the determination result. To do. This rotating lamp lottery table wins with a probability of 90% when the determination result is 3 or more, and with a probability of 50% when the determination result is 1-2, the calculated value is If it is 0, no win will be won (ie, all will be lost).

  When the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S620, the sub-control unit 160 performs lottery of the rotating lamp effect (winning video) using the lottery table. If the sub-control unit 160 wins, the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S630. If not, the sub-control unit 160 proceeds to step S635. .

  When the sub-control unit 160 wins the rotating lamp effect (that is, when notifying that the ART combination has been won), in step S630, the Hanamaru video additional lottery (additional video additional lottery with the first probability) is performed. On the other hand, if the rotating lamp effect is not won, in step S635, a flower circle video additional lottery is performed with a low probability, and the process proceeds to step S640.

  When the Hanamaru effect is won in step S640, the sub-control unit 160 receives the internal winning combination (for example, replay) from the main control unit 100 in the next game, and displays a video obtained by adding the Hanamaru video to the replay symbol. It is displayed on the lower right (see FIG. 89C).

  As shown in FIG. 90 (A), the sub-control unit 160 displays an “ART challenge re-notification screen” indicating re-challenge because there is no payout of medals and the number of remaining games has not decreased in the case of replay. To do.

  In step S630, the sub-control unit 160 performs the Hanamaru video additional lottery again. If the Hanamaru effect is won in step S640, the main control unit 100 receives an internal winning combination (for example, a bell small part) in the next game. When notified, an image obtained by adding the flower circle image to the bell symbol is displayed in the lower right (see FIG. 90B). Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S650, and a monster appears in the background image of a large number of characters displayed on the display effect device 11 by the operation of the stop button unit 10 by the player. Is displayed to notify that the ART combination has been won (see FIG. 90C). The ART winning notification time is most effective when the operation of the stop button unit 10 is completed, but may be performed at the time of the first stop operation or the second stop operation.

  As a result, FIG. 90 (C) shows that 70 of the displayed ART STOCK numbers are 2, the total payout number is 141, and the payout number in the BB game is 70. it's shown. In particular, the final operation (third stop operation) time point of the stop button unit 10 is effective as the ART notification winning notification time. Note that FIG. 91 shows a case where the flower circle effect is not properly selected in FIG. 90, and only the bell symbol that has been internally won is displayed in the lower right. When the revolving light is displayed and the ART combination notifies the winning, the game shifts to the ART state after the end of the BB game in step S670 (see step S540).

  On the other hand, if the Hanamaru effect is not won in step S640, the sub-control unit 160 displays FIG. 92A on the display effect device 11 as in FIG. 89B, and the main control unit in the next game. When an internal winning combination (for example, a bell small combination) is notified from 100, only a bell symbol image is displayed on the lower right (see FIG. 92B). Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S655, and a monster appears in the background image of a large number of characters displayed on the display effect device 11 by the operation of the stop button unit 10 by the player. The letter plate pops out to notify the ART player of the wrong election (see FIG. 92C). If the revolving light is not displayed (not appearing), it is determined in step S660 whether the ART combination is stocked. If it is stocked, the process proceeds to step S670. If it is not stocked, the BB game is played in step S675. End and set the mode (see step S570).

  93 to 94 are schematic views showing the symbol display state of the window.

  The cherry role includes a center cherry (see FIG. 93A) and a strong cherry (see FIG. 93B) as the first strong role, while a weak cherry (see FIG. 93C) as the first weak role. is there. In the case of the center cherry, the cherry symbol stops in the middle stage of the left drum 2a, and the bonus winning probability is 70% and the AT winning probability is 90%, which is extremely hot for the player. In the case of a strong cherry, the cherry symbol stops at the lower stage of the left drum 2a, the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, and the upper stage of the right drum 2c, and the bonus winning probability is 10% and the AT winning probability is 20%. It ’s a hot moment for me, and I ’m both excited and moved. In the case of a weak cherry, the cherry pattern stops in a mountain shape at the lower part of the left drum 2a, the middle part of the middle drum 2b, and the lower part of the right drum 2c, and the bonus winning probability is 3% and the AT winning probability is 5%. This is the moment you expect.

  The plum role has a strong plum (see FIG. 94A) as the second strong role, and a weak plum (see FIG. 94B) as the second weak role. In the case of a strong plum, the plum symbol stops at the upper stage of the left drum 2a, the upper stage of the middle drum 2b, and the upper stage of the right drum 2c, and the bonus winning probability is 30% and the AT winning probability is 50%. In the case of a weak plum, the plum symbol stops at the upper stage of the left drum 2a, the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, and the lower stage of the right drum 2c, and the bonus winning probability is 2% and the AT winning probability is 4%. It is a moment to expect.

  As for the bell role, there is a strong bell (see FIG. 94C) as the third strong role, while there is a weak bell (not shown) as a push order small role as the third weak role. Align in a straight line. In the case of a strong plum, the bell symbol stops at the middle stage of the left drum 2a, the middle stage of the middle drum 2b, and the middle stage of the right drum 2c, and the bonus winning probability is 15% and the AT winning probability is 30%. In the case of a weak bell, the bonus and AT winning probability is about 0% to 0.1%, so the player hardly expects. Although the cherry as the first role, the plum as the second role, and the bell as the third role are exemplified, the first role may be a plum or a bell regardless of the claims.

  FIG. 95 is a timing chart showing the light emission state of the top lamp in time series.

  The sub-control unit 160 puts the top lamp 13a into a light-off state or a light emission state in a neutral color from the end of the game to the start of the next game. This neutral color is generally white, but any color that does not cause confusion to the player other than the unique colors that indicate small roles or replays (red for cherry, purple for plums, yellow for bells, blue for replays) Good (see FIG. 95A).

  When the game is started, the sub-control unit 160 receives a lottery result (for example, replay internal winning) from the main control unit 100, and performs effect control of the display effect device 11 and the game state display LED unit 13. When the player stops the drum section (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b and right drum 2c) by operating the stop button section 10, the top lamp 13a is blue (a unique color corresponding to the internal winning combination or winning combination) ) To turn on or blink, and then set to a neutral state (light-off state or light emission state in neutral color).

  When the next game is started in the state shown in FIG. 95 (A), the sub-control unit 160 receives a lottery result (for example, a center cherry internal winning of a powerful player) and displays the display effect device 11 and The game state display LED unit 13 is heated and the player stops the drum unit 2 (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c) by operating the stop button unit 10 (particularly the left stop button 10a). If the top lamp 13a is turned on or blinking in red (a unique color corresponding to the internal winning combination or winning combination), and then 32 games are consumed (a predetermined number of variable display games are executed), During the interval, the top lamp 13a is continuously lit or blinking in red. This makes it possible to continuously give the player a sense of expectation (see FIG. 95B).

  When the next game is started in the state shown in FIG. 95 (B), the sub-control unit 160 receives a lottery result (for example, a strong-plum strong winner) from the main control unit 100. The game state display LED unit 13 is heated and the player stops the drum unit 2 (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c) by operating the stop button unit 10 (particularly the left stop button 10a). In this case, the top lamp 13a is lit or blinked in purple, and the top lamp 13a is lit or blinked in purple during the interval until the 32 games are consumed (see FIG. 95C).

  On the other hand, when the sub-control unit 160 receives a lottery result (for example, a weak internal winning plum prize) from the main control unit 100 when the next game is started in the state of FIG. 11 and the game status display LED unit 13 are provided with a rare small role effect, and the player operates the stop button unit 10 (particularly, the left stop button 10a) to operate the drum unit (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c). When the game is stopped, the top lamp 13a is turned on or blinking in purple, and the difference game between the 32 games and the number of variable display games executed after the center cherry is consumed (the remaining number of the variable display games executed is executed). In the interval period, the top lamp 13a continues to be lit or blinking in red (see FIG. 95C). If the strong cherry is won again in the state where the top lamp 13a is lit in red, the number of digested games is reset, and the countdown of 32 games is started again from that point.

  The sub-control unit 160 flashes the top lamp 13a in red during the interval period for 32 games after the center cherry or strong cherry, and flashes in purple for 32 games after the strong plum. It suggests a high probability state of lottery, or a precursor state of bonus or ART.

  As another example, the sub-control unit 160 does not change the light emission state when the winning probability is high in the order of center cherry> strong plum> strong bell. For example, when the top lamp 13a is lit or blinking in red during the interval period after the center cherry, even if a strong plum is won internally, it continues to emit light in red or alternately in red and purple. Then, when light is emitted in red for 32 games, light is emitted only in purple for the remaining number of games.

  FIG. 96 is a principal block diagram of the display effect device and the control circuit system.

  When the big bonus is ended in step S564 in FIG. 84, the sub-control unit 160 starts the target game, and determines the internal state (low probability, normal probability, high probability, ultra-high probability) determined in advance by a lottery during the bonus game. Etc.), display data and deviation number lottery probability data are transmitted to the display control unit 11a. The display data is numerical data of 1 to 5 corresponding to the positions where the balls (moving elements) indicated by the black circles in the figure can stop (No. 0 to No. 15 pockets). A numerical value 5 is entered in the position of the number (in order of clockwise, number 1 is numbered 1, number 2 is number 4, number 3 is number 2, and the same four values are cyclically repeated up to number 15).

  The deviation number lottery probability data is a probability value for determining the number of deviations from 0 to 3 by lottery. For example, the deviation number 0 is 10%, the deviation number 1 is 20%, the deviation number 2 is 30%, the deviation number 3 is probability data of 40%. In addition, when the target game has a very high probability, the sub-control unit 160 sets all the numerical data to 10 and displays all 10 sets winning confirmation, or sets 0 to 7 to 7 and 8 to 15 Set the number to 3, so that either 7 or 3 sets will win. On the other hand, if the target game has a low probability, only the number 0 is set to 10 or 5, and all others are set to 0 or 1, making it difficult to win. Although the number of deviations is set to four of 0 to 3, it is not limited to this value, and 0 to 14 may be determined by lottery each time, and the deviation number lottery probability data may be transmitted ( The deviation number lottery probability data is the number of deviations and the lottery probability value).

  When the display control unit 11a receives the display data and the deviation number lottery probability data from the sub-control unit 160, the display control unit 11a reads the image data from the CG-ROM 11c, and displays the target game selection screen on the display screen 11b of the display effect device 11. The number of deviations is determined in advance by lottery. This selection screen displays “START: YES” (hatched portion). On the other hand, when NO is selected by operating the left and right keys (not shown) and the special button 14 is operated, the target game is canceled and the average expected value (AV: average) is 3. In this target game, the ball indicated by a black circle rotates clockwise (in the direction of the arrow) and gradually increases from a low speed to reach a constant speed, or when the predetermined time elapses, the special button 14 can be operated again.

  97 and 98 are schematic diagrams of a roulette screen displayed by the display effect device.

  When the player operates the special button 14 from the state shown in FIG. 96 and receives an input signal from the special button sensor 112, the sub-control unit 160 transmits a start command to the display control unit 11a.

  When receiving the start command, the display control unit 11a moves the ball as a mover from the state of FIG. 97A to the right pocket by one (see FIG. 97B). Drawing similar to this one frame is continued a plurality of times (see FIGS. 97C to 97D). Then, as shown in FIGS. 97 (E) to 97 (F), when the right two frames are drawn at the same time, the movement speed of the ball is doubled and the movement is medium speed.

  Then, if the right three frames are drawn simultaneously from the state of FIG. 98 (A) where two frames are drawn (see FIG. 98 (B)), the ball can be moved at a high speed three times the initial speed. Thereafter, when the movement of the ball reaches a constant speed (or when a predetermined time has elapsed), the sub-control unit 160 can accept the operation of the special button 14 (see FIGS. 98C to 98F). ) “Press special button” is displayed at the top of the display screen 11b.

  FIG. 99 is a schematic diagram of a roulette screen displayed by the display effect device.

  When the player operates the special button 14 in the state shown in FIG. 99A and receives an input signal from the special button sensor 112, the sub control unit 160 transmits a stop command to the display control unit 11a. The display control unit 11a continues drawing until the stop command is received from the sub control unit 160. For example, the display control unit 11a continuously moves the ball for two screens (FIGS. 99B to 99C). reference).

  Even if the display control unit 11a receives the stop command from the sub-control unit 160, the display control unit 11a has already performed the next drawing process. Therefore, the display control unit 11a moves and displays three balls for one screen. The position is determined to be the leading ball position (position of numeral 2) (see FIG. 99D). The reason for making this determination is to prevent the player from feeling uncomfortable because the ball appears to be backed by an afterimage if the stop possible position is a non-leading position (position of numeral 4 or 1). is there.

  The display control unit 11a stops the ball in the next drawing. When the determined number of deviations is 0, the ball stops biting at the position of the number 2 (see FIG. 99E), while the number of deviations. When is 3, the ball slides to the position of numeral 4 and stops (see FIG. 99 (F)). Of course, when the number of deviations is 1, it stops at the position of numeral 5, and when the number of deviations is 2, it stops at the position of number 1. As a result, the player can not only aim and win the bonus or ART directly, but also determine the number of deviations inside the gaming machine, so that it cannot be completely aimed.

  In the case of FIG. 99 (E), the display control unit 11a sub-controls “2” of the numerical data (game value data) corresponding to the stop position of the ball, and “4” in the case of FIG. 99 (F). To the unit 160.

  The display control unit 11a makes a determination based on the received numerical data, and when there is an ART stock (step S566 in FIG. 84), the process proceeds to step S540 and starts ART, whereas when there is no ART stock (step S568), The mode selected in step S552 is set, and the process proceeds to (1) for starting the game.
