When interpreted in a narrow sense, the CPU 206, the ROM 208, the RAM 210, the VDP 212, the video RAM 214, the image data ROM 216, and the drive circuit 218 are also included as components of the display / input control device 200.

[Game terminal main flow]
A specific example of the game program in the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a main flow of a game program executed on the gaming terminal 1.

  In the following, it is assumed that the gaming terminal 1 has been activated in advance. In addition, it is assumed that a variable used in the CPU 106 in the control device 100 of the gaming terminal 1 is initialized to a predetermined value, whereby the gaming terminal 1 is in a steady operation. Each flow is called and executed at a predetermined timing from the main program of the gaming terminal 1 that is executed in advance.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the main flow of the game program executed on the gaming terminal 1, first, the CPU 106 on the control device 100 side determines whether or not a credit that is the remaining number of coins inserted by the player remains. (Step S1). Specifically, the CPU 106 reads out the credit number C stored in the RAM 110 and performs processing based on the read credit number C. If the number of credits C is “0” (when NO is determined in the process of step S1), the CPU 106 cannot start the game, and thus waits until it detects coin insertion. On the other hand, when the number of credits C is “1” or more (when it is determined YES in the process of step S1), the CPU 106 determines that credits remain and moves the process to step S3.

  Here, the coin means a gaming value in the gaming machine, and may be a currency distributed in the market in a country where the present invention is implemented, and is uniquely used in a game hall where the present invention is implemented. A game medal or the like that can be obtained by the player by exchanging the currency in the implementation country may be used. Further, it may be electromagnetic or electronic information that can be stored in a storage medium such as a magnetic medium or an optical medium. In the case of electronic information, “coin” is stored in the storage medium as a prize having a value corresponding to the number of coins. Further, the “coin” is not only stored in the storage medium, but may be given by printed information such as a barcode or a QR code. In the present embodiment described below, coins as medals are paid out, but can be selected according to the payout method employed in the gaming machine.

  In step S3, the CPU 106 sets a game condition, and proceeds to step S5. Specifically, the CPU 106 determines the number of coins to bet on the role of the poker game performed in the basic game described later based on the number of inserted coins. At this time, the CPU 106 receives an operation signal generated by the pressing operation of the BET switch 43, and stores the BET number in a predetermined memory area of the RAM 110 based on the number of times the received operation signal is received. The CPU 106 reads the credit number C written in a predetermined memory area of the RAM 110, subtracts the total BET number obtained by adding the BET number from the read credit number C, and uses the subtracted value as a predetermined memory of the RAM 110. Remember to area.

  In order to determine the BET number, a selection key such as a number is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 50, and the player touches the area where the number is displayed on the touch panel 52 and selects the number. You may do it.

  In step S5, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the start switch is ON. Specifically, the CPU 106 determines whether an operation signal from the start switch 44 has been received. When the operation signal is received (when YES is determined in the process of step S5), the CPU 106 determines that the start switch is ON, and moves the process to step S7. On the other hand, when the operation signal is not received (when NO is determined in the process of step S5), the CPU 106 stands by as it is.

  In step S7, the CPU 106 performs a basic game process described later. When the basic game process is completed, the CPU 106 shifts the process to step S9.

  In step S9, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to shift to the bonus game. The determination to shift to the bonus game is made based on whether or not the winning combination in the basic game allows the shift to the bonus game. Specifically, the CPU 106 makes a determination based on the type of winning flag stored in the RAM 110. If the stored winning flag is a transition flag that allows the transition to the bonus game (YES in step S9), the CPU 106 moves the process to step S11. On the other hand, if the stored winning flag is a flag that does not permit the transition to the bonus game (when NO is determined in step S9), the CPU 106 shifts the processing to step S13.

  In step S11, the CPU 106 performs a bonus game process described later. The bonus game will be described later. When the bonus game process ends, the CPU 106 moves the process to step S13.

  In step S13, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to pay out. Specifically, CPU 106 determines whether or not the coin number data that has been paid out is stored in RAM 110. When the coin number data is stored in the RAM 110 (when YES is determined in step S13), the CPU 106 moves the process to step S15. On the other hand, if the coin count data is not stored in the RAM 110 (NO in step S13), the CPU 106 ends the main flow.

  In step S15, the CPU 106 pays out coins. Specifically, the CPU 106 reads the credit number C stored in a predetermined memory area of the RAM 110, adds the calculated payout number to the read credit number C, and uses the added value as a predetermined memory of the RAM 110. Remember to area. The CPU 106 displays the stored value on the credit number display unit 39. When the process of step S15 ends, the CPU 106 ends this routine.

[Basic game processing]
The basic game process will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a flow of basic game processing according to the present embodiment. FIG. 8 is a view showing a basic game probability lottery table according to the present embodiment. FIG. 9 is a view showing a basic game payout table according to the present embodiment. 10 and 11 are display examples of game screens in the basic game according to the present embodiment.

  In the basic game, a poker game which is a kind of card game is played. Here, terms relating to the playing card will be described. “Suit” refers to the mark on a playing card, and there are four types: “spade”, “heart”, “diamond”, and “club”. The “number” means a number in the playing card, and A (corresponding to ace 1), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J (jack, 11) Equivalent), Q (queen, equivalent to 12), and K (king, equivalent to 13). “Picture” refers to a type of card determined by a combination of a playing card suit and a number, for example, “Ace of Hearts”, “King of Spades”, and the like. Furthermore, the “design” means a thing including a suit, a design, and a number.

  First, the CPU 106 performs an internal lottery process for determining a winning combination in a playing card that is first displayed on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. In this internal lottery, the winning combination is determined by referring to the basic game probability lottery table using the random number generated by the random number generator 112 as a parameter (step S21).

  As the basic game probability lottery table, for example, a table as shown in FIG. The basic game probability lottery table includes information on the range of random numbers for internal winning for each winning combination and information on the probability of internal winning, and the random number extraction range is “0” to “65535”. In this table, for example, when random numbers are extracted in the range of “1200” to “1799” out of the random number extraction range “0” to “65535” in the basic game lottery process, “Full House” is the internal winning combination. As determined. In other words, the probability that “Full House” is won as a winning combination is “600/65536”.

  Here, the role of the poker game performed in the basic game will be described. The role of the poker game in the present embodiment is an aspect in which some or all of the five playing cards displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50 match based on a certain rule. Specifically, for example, there are “one pair”, “two pair”, “three card”, “straight”, “flash”, “full house”, “four card”, “straight flush”, and “royal straight flush”.

  “One pair” refers to a mode in which there are two playing cards of the same number. In addition, “two pair” refers to an aspect in which there are two sets of two playing card cards having the same number. “Three cards” refers to an aspect in which there are three playing cards of the same number, and “straight” refers to an aspect in which the numbers of five playing cards are continuous regardless of the type of suit. “Flash” refers to the form of five suits of the same type regardless of the number. “Full House” refers to a set of three cards of the same number and one set of two cards. An aspect is mentioned. “Four card” refers to a mode in which four playing cards with the same number are arranged, and “straight flush” refers to a mode in which all the playing cards are in the same suit and the numbers are continuous. “Straight flush” refers to an embodiment in which the suits are of the same type and the numbers are arranged in the order of 10, J, Q, K, and A.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 9, a payout is associated with each of the above combinations. The basic game payout table in FIG. 9 will be described below. In the basic game payout table, the role of the poker game in the basic game is associated with information on whether or not the payout and the bonus game can be executed.

  For example, if the winning combination is “Royal Straight Flash”, the payout is “250” and the player can enter the bonus game. The payout in the basic game payout table indicates a multiplier for the BET number. That is, when the BET number is “1”, 250 coins are paid out, but when the BET number is “2”, it is multiplied by “250” which is the payout of the winning combination to be 500. A coin is paid out.

  Returning to FIG. 7, in step S <b> 23, the CPU 106 displays a playing card on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. In this case, the playing card to be displayed is displayed in a state where the symbol is not visible to the player. Here, if any combination is won in the internal lottery of step S21, an effect that implies that it has been won may be displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S25.

  In step S <b> 25, the CPU 106 causes the liquid crystal display device 50 to display an image in which the symbol is visible by turning over the playing card in a state where the symbol displayed in step S <b> 23 is not visible. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, a playing card that is distributed and allows the user to see a symbol is displayed. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S27.

  In step S27, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the hold has ended. This determination is made based on whether or not the player has pressed the DRAW button 60 displayed on the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. Specifically, when the player touches the area of the DRAW button 60 image displayed on the display surface 51a, the touch panel 52 issues a detection signal indicating the contact position, and the CPU 106 receives the detection signal. When the CPU 106 receives a detection signal indicating the contact position, the CPU 106 determines whether the image of the DRAW button 60 has been touched against the coordinate data on the display surface 51a of the detection signal. If the CPU 106 determines that the image of the DRAW button 60 has been touched (pressed), the CPU 106 moves the process to step S43. If there is no contact (if NO is determined in step S27), the process proceeds to step S29. Hereinafter, the process in the operation by the touch panel 52 on the display surface 51a is the same.

  In step S29, it is determined whether any of the HOLD buttons 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 has been pressed (whether the player has touched the corresponding part of the touch panel 52). This determination is made by selecting any one of the HOLD buttons 61, 62, 63, 64, and 65, so that the detection signal of the touch panel 52 is transmitted to the CPU 106, and the CPU 106 receives the detection signal. If CPU 106 has received a detection signal (YES in step S29), the process proceeds to step S31. If CPU 106 does not receive a detection signal for a predetermined time (when NO is determined in step S29), the process proceeds to step S33.

  In step S31, the CPU 106 holds and displays the playing cards 71, 72, 73, 74, and 75. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11, for example, the corresponding HOLD button 61 is blacked out, and the corresponding playing card 71 is selected and displayed. In the present embodiment, for example, the frame line of the playing card 71 is displayed thick. Then, the CPU 106 stores the held card position data in the RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S33.

  In step S33, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the hold has ended. Specifically, when all the HOLD buttons 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 or step S27 are pressed and the DRAW button is pressed and the CPU 106 receives a detection signal from the touch panel 52, the hold is completed. Judge (assumed to be YES in step S33). On the other hand, if there is a HOLD button that has not been pressed, the hold is not completed (NO is determined in step S33), and the process returns to step S29. FIG. 11 shows that the two HOLD buttons 61 and 64 have been pressed. That is, it indicates that the processing from step S29 to step S33 has been performed twice.

  In step S35, the CPU 106 performs an internal lottery. The internal lottery is a lottery for drawing cards other than the held playing cards 71 and 74. To draw means to replace a card that is not held with another card. The CPU 106 refers to the basic game probability lottery table using the random number generated by the random number generator 112 as a parameter, determines a winning combination, and stores the winning flag of the winning combination in the RAM 110. Further, in the case where the winning combination is permitted to shift to the bonus game in the basic game payout table of FIG. 8, the shift flag to the bonus game is stored in the RAM 110. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S37.

  In step S <b> 37, the CPU 106 performs display for redistribution of playing cards other than the held playing card. In this case, it is preferable to display the card card in a state where it cannot be seen at the time of redistribution. Moreover, you may perform the production | presentation which suggests that a certain role is elected at this time. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S39.

  In step S39, the CPU 106 performs a process of turning the redistributed playing card and displaying a symbol. If this process ends, the process moves to a step S41.

  In step S41, the CPU 106 displays an effect image corresponding to the winning combination. In this case, “losing” in the basic game probability lottery table in FIG. 8 is included in the winning combination, and an effect image corresponding to the “losing” combination is displayed. When this process is finished, this routine is finished.

[Bonus Game Processing 1]
The bonus game process 1 will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing bonus game processing 1. FIG. 13 is a display example of the via-mag bonus start screen. FIG. 14 shows a credit total number determination probability lottery table. 15 and 16 are examples of display screens in the beer mug bonus game. FIG. 17 shows a game continuation determination probability lottery table. 18 and 19 are examples of display screens in the beer mug bonus game.

  First, referring to FIG. 12, in step S51, CPU 106 displays a via-mag bonus start screen, and the process proceeds to step S53. Specifically, the CPU 106 sends a signal to the display / input control device 200, and the CPU 206 of the display / input control device 200 reads the via-mag bonus start screen data from the image data ROM 216 and displays the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. To display.

  Here, the via-mag bonus start screen shown in FIG. 13 will be described. This beer mug bonus start screen shows the beer mug 81 sliding on the hero character 80.

  Returning to FIG. 12, in step S53, the CPU 106 sets the value of the game number counter C and the credit total value to 0, and moves the process to step S55. Specifically, the CPU 106 sets the value of the game number counter C and the credit total value stored in the RAM 110 to zero.

  In step S55, the CPU 106 determines the total number of credits to be paid out as a prize, and moves the process to step S57. Specifically, the CPU 106 refers to a credit total number determination probability lottery table described later with reference to FIG. 14 and determines the total number of credits to be paid out as a prize. The CPU 106 stores the total number in a predetermined area of the RAM 110.

  Here, the credit total number determination probability lottery table shown in FIG. 14 will be described. The credit total number determination probability lottery table is a table that the CPU 106 refers to when determining the total number of credits to be paid out as a prize. For example, when the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is “58000”, it belongs to the random number range “53,000 to 58999”, and thus the total number is determined to be “160”.

  Returning to FIG. 12, in step S57, the CPU 106 selects a numerical video group that is the total number of credits of the numerical video in which the total number of credits paid out as a prize is displayed once or more, and the process proceeds to step S59. Transfer. Specifically, for example, when the total number is “160”, the CPU 106 displays the number of credits “80” for the first time so that the total number of credits is “160” when the numerical image is displayed twice. Is extracted from the image data ROM 216, “80” is stored in the first numerical image selection area of the RAM 110. Then, “80” is stored in the second numerical image selection area of the RAM 110 in order to extract the numerical image with the credit number “80” from the image data ROM 216 for the second time.

  In step S59, the CPU 106 extracts and displays the numerical image from the image data ROM 216, and moves the process to step S61. Specifically, for example, when “80” is stored in the first numerical image selection area of the RAM 110, the CPU 106 displays the first numerical image with the credit number “80” of the display / input control device 200. By transmitting a control signal to the CPU 206, it is extracted from the image data ROM 216 and displayed on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50. Further, for example, when “80” is stored in the second numerical image selection area of the RAM 110, the CPU 106 controls the CPU 206 of the display / input control device 200 for the second numerical image with the credit number “80”. By transmitting the signal, it is extracted from the image data ROM 216 and displayed on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the effect image. According to FIG. 15, when the main character 80 dries out beer and puts a beer mug 81 in the first time (first game), the total number of credits to be paid out as a prize determined in step S55 is “160”. For example, for the first time, a numerical image with a credit number of “80” is displayed. Further, “80” is added to the first credit total value “0” in step S53 as the total number of credits for the first time, and “TOTAL 80” is displayed.

  Next, FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the effect image. According to FIG. 16, when the main character 80 dries out beer and puts a beer mug 81 in the second time (second game), the total number of credits to be paid out as a prize determined in step S55 is “160”. For example, for the second time, a numerical image with a credit number of “80” is displayed. In addition, “80” is added to the credit total value “80” at the first time and “TOTAL 160” is displayed as the total number of credits at the first time.

  Returning to FIG. 12, in step S61, the CPU 106 increments the value of the game number counter C by 1, and moves the process to step S63.

  In step S63, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the game number counter C is “3”. If “3” is determined, the process proceeds to step S69. If not “3”, the process proceeds to step S65.

  In step S65, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to continue the game. If it is determined to continue, the process proceeds to step S59. If it is determined not to continue, the process proceeds to step S67. Specifically, the CPU 106 refers to a game continuation determination probability lottery table, which will be described later with reference to FIG. 17, and determines whether or not to continue the game.

  Here, the game continuation determination probability lottery table shown in FIG. 17 will be described. This game continuation determination probability lottery table is a table that the CPU 106 refers to when determining whether or not to continue the game. For example, if the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is “3100”, it belongs to the random number range “0 to 9999”, so it is determined to “continue the game”.

  Returning to FIG. 12, in step S <b> 67, the CPU 106 displays an image in which the main character 80 is drunk, and gives a prize according to the credit number of the displayed numerical image. Specifically, the CPU 106 sends a signal to the display / input control device 200, and the CPU 206 of the display / input control device 200 reads the image data in which the hero character 80 gets drunk from the image data ROM 216 and displays on the liquid crystal display device 50. Display on the surface 51a. Further, the CPU 106 gives a prize according to the number of credits of the displayed numerical image. For example, when the numerical value stored in the RAM 110 as the credit total value of the displayed numerical image is “160”, 160 coins are paid out. When the process of step S67 ends, the CPU 106 ends the bonus game process 1.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing a display example of the effect image, and shows how the main character 80 gets drunk. According to FIG. 18, “TOTAL 160” is displayed as the credit total value.

  By the way, the method of awarding a prize is not limited to the above-described method, and a prize corresponding to the number of displayed credits may be awarded every time a numerical image is displayed. For example, when the number of credits of the numerical image displayed in step S59 is “80”, 80 coins may be paid out.

  Returning to FIG. 12, in step S <b> 69, the CPU 106 displays an image in which the protagonist character 80 raises his / her finger, and gives a prize according to the number of credits of the displayed numerical image. Specifically, the CPU 106 sends a signal to the display / input control device 200, and the CPU 206 of the display / input control device 200 reads the image data that the hero character 80 raises from the image data ROM 216 to read the liquid crystal display device 50. Is displayed on the display surface 51a. Further, the CPU 106 gives a prize according to the number of credits of the displayed numerical image. For example, when the numerical value stored in the RAM 110 as the total credit number of the displayed numerical image is “200”, 200 coins are paid out. When the process of step S69 ends, the CPU 106 ends the bonus game process 1.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram showing a display example of the effect image, and shows a state where the main character 80 raises his / her finger. According to FIG. 19, “TOTAL 200” is displayed as the credit total value.

[Bonus Game Processing 2]
Hereinafter, the bonus game process 2 will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 and 15 to 21. FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing the bonus game process 2. FIG. 13 is a display example of the via-mag bonus start screen. FIG. 21 is a diagram showing a credit number determination probability lottery table. 15 and 16 are examples of display screens in the beer mug bonus game. FIG. 17 shows a game continuation determination probability lottery table. 18 and 19 are examples of display screens in the beer mug bonus game.

  First, referring to FIG. 20, in step S71, CPU 106 displays a via-mag bonus start screen, and the process proceeds to step S73. Specifically, the CPU 106 sends a signal to the display / input control device 200, and the CPU 206 of the display / input control device 200 reads the via-mag bonus start screen data from the image data ROM 216 and displays the display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display device 50. To display.

  Here, the via-mag bonus start screen shown in FIG. 13 will be described. This beer mug bonus start screen shows the beer mug 81 sliding on the hero character 80.

  Returning to FIG. 20, in step S73, the CPU 106 sets the value of the game number counter C and the credit total value to 0, and moves the process to step S75. Specifically, the CPU 106 sets the value of the game number counter C and the credit total value stored in the RAM 110 to zero.

  In step S75, the CPU 106 determines the number of credits to be paid out as a prize, and moves the process to step S77. Specifically, the CPU 106 refers to a credit number determination probability lottery table, which will be described later with reference to FIG. 21, and determines the number of credits to be paid out as a prize. CPU 106 stores the credit number in a predetermined area of RAM 110.

  Here, the credit number determination probability lottery table shown in FIG. 21 will be described. This credit number determination probability lottery table is a table that the CPU 106 refers to when determining the number of credits to be paid out as a prize. For example, when the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is “63700”, it belongs to the random number range “63000-64999”, and thus the numerical value is determined as “80”.

  Returning to FIG. 20, in step S77, the CPU 106 extracts and displays the numerical image of the determined credit number from the image data ROM 216, and moves the process to step S79. Specifically, for example, when the number of credits to be paid out as a prize is “80”, the CPU 106 transmits a control signal to the CPU 206 of the display / input control apparatus 200 for a numerical image with the credit number “80”. Thus, the image data is extracted from the image data ROM 216 and displayed on the display surface 51 a of the liquid crystal display device 50.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the effect image. According to FIG. 15, when the main character 80 dries out beer and puts a beer mug 81 in the first time (first game), a numerical image of the number of credits to be paid out as a prize determined in step S75 is displayed. In the display example of this figure, “80” is displayed as the number of credits to be paid out as a prize. As the credit total value, “80” is added to the first credit total value “0” in step S73, and “TOTAL 80” is displayed.

  Next, FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the effect image. According to FIG. 16, when the main character 80 dries out beer and places the beer mug 81 in the second time (second game), a numerical image of the number of credits to be paid out as an award determined in step S75 is displayed. In the display example of this figure, “80” is displayed as the number of credits to be paid out as a prize. As the credit total value, “80” is added to the credit total value “80” at the first time, and “TOTAL 160” is displayed.

  Returning to FIG. 20, in step S79, the CPU 106 increments the value of the game number counter C by 1, and moves the process to step S81.

  In step S81, the CPU 106 determines whether or not the game number counter C is “3”. If “3” is determined, the process proceeds to step S87. If not “3”, the process proceeds to step S83.

  In step S83, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to continue the game. If it is determined to continue, the process proceeds to step S75. If it is determined not to continue, the process proceeds to step S85. Specifically, the CPU 106 determines whether or not to continue the game with reference to the aforementioned game continuation determination probability lottery table (FIG. 17).

  Here, the game continuation determination probability lottery table shown in FIG. 17 will be described. This game continuation determination probability lottery table is a table that the CPU 106 refers to when determining whether or not to continue the game. For example, if the random number generated by the random number generator 112 is “3100”, it belongs to the random number range “0 to 9999”, so it is determined to “continue the game”.

  Returning to FIG. 20, in step S <b> 85, the CPU 106 displays an image in which the main character 80 is drunk, and awards are awarded according to the number of credits of the displayed numerical image.
