(Game state)
The gaming machine 1 configured as described above causes four types of gaming states to appear: “general gaming state”, “RT gaming state”, “BB gaming state”, and “RB gaming state”. Each of these “four types” of game states basically includes the types of roles that may be won internally, the probability of internally winning replays, the types of bonuses that can be established, and internal winnings. It is distinguished by the relationship with winning a prize.

  The “general gaming state” basically means a gaming state in which an expected value of a so-called “participation rate” (a gaming value given to a player with respect to a unit gaming value bet on a game) is smaller than “1”. This is a gaming state that is most disadvantageous for the player as compared to other gaming states.

  The “RT gaming state” is a gaming state that has a higher probability of internal winning in replay than the “general gaming state”. The “RT gaming state” is generated when, in the “general gaming state”, RT (replay time) is won internally and RT is won. The RT prize is established when “bell-replay-replay” is arranged along the active line in the “general gaming state”. Further, the “RT gaming state” is generated with a predetermined probability after the “BB gaming state” or the “RB gaming state” ends. The “RT gaming state” ends when a unit game is played a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 games). However, when a BB or RB winning is established in the “RT gaming state”, the “RT gaming state” ends immediately. In addition, when a prize for a specific small role (in this embodiment, a cherry small role) is established in the “RT gaming state”, a so-called puncture occurs, and the “RT gaming state” ends immediately. The replay time (RT) refers to a period during which the gaming state is “RT gaming state”.

  The “BB gaming state” is generated when a player wins a BB in the “general gaming state” or “RT gaming state” by internally winning BB (big bonus). The BB winning is established by arranging “red 7-red 7-red 7” or “blue 7-blue 7-blue 7” along the active line in the “general gaming state” or the “RT gaming state”. The “BB gaming state” ends when the payout of medals of a predetermined number (eg, 240) or more is completed.

  The “RB gaming state” is generated when RB (regular bonus) is won internally in the “general gaming state” or the “RT gaming state” and the RB is won. The RB winning is established by arranging “red 7-red 7-blue 7” along the active line in the “general gaming state” or the “RT gaming state”. The “RB gaming state” ends when the payout of medals of a predetermined number (for example, 120) or more is completed.

(Pattern combination and number of payouts)
Next, a description will be given of the relationship between the gaming state, the symbol combination indicating the winning, and the number of medals paid out. In the general gaming state and the RT gaming state, the prizes are “BB”, “RB”, “Replay”, “Watermelon Minor”, “Bell Minor” and “Cherry Minor”. there is a possibility. “BB” is established by arranging “blue 7-blue 7-blue 7” or “red 7-red 7-red 7” along the active line. “RB” is established by arranging “red 7-red 7-blue 7” along the active line. The number of medals to be paid out at this time is “0”. Further, “replay” is established by arranging “Replay-Replay-Replay”. When a re-game winning is established, the same number of medals as the number of inserted medals are automatically inserted, so that the player can play the next game without consuming the medals. In the case of a watermelon small part, a bell small part, and a cherry small part, six, ten, and six medals are paid out, respectively.

  In the general gaming state, there is a possibility of winning “RT”. “RT” is established by arranging “bell-replay-replay” along the active line. The number of medals to be paid out at this time is “0”. When the winning of “RT” is established, the gaming state becomes the RT gaming state, and the probability of internally winning a replay (replay) in a predetermined number of games thereafter increases.

  In the general gaming state and the RT gaming state, when BB and RB are won internally, the internal winning combination is set as a carryover combination and is carried over to subsequent games. Here, the carry-over of the internal winning combination means that the BB and RB can be won even if the BB and RB are not internally won in the next and subsequent games. Specifically, when the internal winning combination is “None”, BB or RB can be won. However, two or more carryovers cannot be set at the same time.

  In the BB game state, there is a possibility of winning a replay (replay), a watermelon small part, a bell small part, or a cherry small part. In the BB gaming state, “RT”, “BB”, and “RB” are not won. In the RB gaming state, there is a possibility of winning a replay (replay), a watermelon small part, a bell small part, or a cherry small part. In the case of a watermelon small part, a bell small part, and a cherry small part, six, ten, and six medals are paid out, respectively. In the RB gaming state, “RT”, “BB”, and “RB” are not won.

(Mechanical configuration of mobile phone terminal 200)
As shown in FIG. 1, a mobile phone terminal 200 according to the present embodiment is used for a call with a liquid crystal display device 221 as information display means for displaying an information image 68, other mobile phone terminals, and fixed phone terminals. A speaker 218, a microphone 217, and an operation key group 219 used for operations such as inputting a telephone number are provided.

  The information image 68 has information regarding the number of acquired images and the number of unacquired images. Note that the information image 68 may display an acquired image type or an unacquired image type. Such an information image 68 is based on all image ID data received from the gaming machine 1 and image data stored in the RAM 205.

  In this way, the information image 68 based on all the image ID data received from the gaming machine 1 and the image data stored in the RAM 205 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 221 of the mobile phone terminal 200. As a result, information such as the number of image data that is not stored in the mobile phone terminal 200 among the image data stored in the gaming machine 1 is displayed on the mobile phone terminal 200, thereby making it easy for the player to obtain the image acquisition status. Can be grasped.

(Electrical configuration of mobile phone terminal 200)
The operation of the mobile phone terminal 200 configured as described above is controlled by a terminal control circuit 201 as shown in FIG. The terminal control circuit 201 includes a microcomputer 202 arranged on a circuit board as a main component. The microcomputer 202 has a CPU 203 that performs a control operation according to a preset program, and a ROM 204 and a RAM 205 that are storage means.

  The CPU 31 is input to the transmitter / receiver 206 that performs wireless communication with the base station via the antenna 215, the sound source IC 207 that controls the sound output from the external speaker 216, the power amplifier 208 as an amplifier, and the microphone 217. An input audio processing circuit 209 that processes audio to be output, an output audio processing circuit 210 that processes audio output from the speaker 218, an interface circuit 211 to which various signals from the operation key group 219 and the flip sensor 220 are input, and liquid crystal An image control circuit 212 that controls display of the display device 221, an image processing circuit 213 that processes an image captured by the camera 222, and a data communication circuit 214 that performs data communication with the gaming machine 1 via the connector 223. And are connected.

  Various information is temporarily stored in the RAM 205 of the terminal control circuit 201. For example, an image data acquisition program, all image ID data, image data, the number of acquired images, the number of unacquired images, and the like are stored.

  On the other hand, the ROM 204 of the terminal control circuit 201 stores various control programs for executing telephone calls, the Internet, imaging, downloading, sending and receiving of e-mails, and the like.

  The CPU 31 serving as a decoding unit decodes the QR code captured by the camera 222. The CPU 31 as an access means accesses an arbitrary site on the Internet. CPU31 as a program acquisition means acquires arbitrary programs from the accessed site. The CPU 31 as information display control means causes the liquid crystal display device 221 to display information based on all image ID data (image information data) and image request signal (stored information data) received from the outside.

(Operation of gaming machine 1: main control circuit 71)
In the above configuration, the control operation of the CPU 31 of the main control circuit 71 of the gaming machine 1 will be described with reference to the main routine shown in FIGS.

  First, when the power is turned on, the gaming machine 1 enters a state in which a game can be executed by executing the main routines of FIGS. 7 and 8 in the main control circuit 71, and an effect not shown in the sub control circuit 72. By executing the processing routine, the liquid crystal display device 5 displays the pseudo reels 4L, 4C, 4R, effect images, etc., outputs sound from the speakers 21L, 21R, 21B, and the LED lamp 29. It is possible to perform light output by or to be able to perform these.

(Operation of main control circuit 71: main routine)
When the main routine is executed by the main control circuit 71, first, as shown in FIG. 7, the CPU 31 performs initialization at the start of the game (S1). Specifically, initialization of the storage contents of the RAM 33, initialization of communication data, and the like are performed. Subsequently, the predetermined stored contents of the RAM 33 at the end of the game are erased (S2). Specifically, the data in the writable area of the RAM 33 used for the previous game is erased, the parameters necessary for the next game are written in the write area of the RAM 33, the start address of the sequence program for the next game, etc. I do. Next, the CPU 31 stands by until there is an input from the inserted medal sensor 22S or the BET switches 11S and 12S (S3). Thereafter, a medal insertion signal is transmitted to the sub-control circuit 72, and it is determined whether or not the start switch 6S is turned on by operating the start lever 6 (S4).

  If it is determined that the start switch 6S is not turned on (S4: NO), the process waits for input by repeating S4. If it is determined that the start switch 6S is turned on (S4: YES), a reel rotation process is performed (S5), and a reel rotation signal is transmitted to the sub-control circuit 72. Thereafter, random numbers for lottery are extracted (S6). Then, the gaming state in the current game is confirmed and set by executing the gaming state monitoring process (S7). That is, the game state of the current game is set to any one of the general game state, the RT game state, the BB game state, and the RB game state, and a game state signal is transmitted to the sub-control circuit 72. Further, probability lottery processing is performed (S8), and an internal winning combination is determined. Then, an internal winning combination signal corresponding to the determined internal winning combination is transmitted to the sub-control circuit 72.

  Subsequently, stop table selection processing is executed (S9). Specifically, a specific stop table group is selected using the type of internal winning combination. The stop table group is used when the reels 3L, 3C, and 3R are stopped in the subsequent reel rotation stop processing. Here, the stop table signal is transmitted to the sub control circuit 72. Next, a reel rotation stop process is executed (S10). That is, the sliding frame number determination process is performed to determine the number of sliding frames at the timing when any one of the stop buttons 7L, 7C, and 7R is pressed or when the automatic stop timer becomes “0”. Specifically, the number of sliding symbols is determined based on the determined (selected) stop table, the determined internal winning combination, and the like. Subsequently, the reel corresponding to the stop button for which the stop operation has been performed is rotated by the number of sliding frames and then stopped. Note that a reel stop signal (left, middle, right) is transmitted to the sub-control circuit 72 every time the stop button 7L, 7C, 7R is operated and the corresponding reel stops. Further, when all the reels 3L, 3C, and 3R are stopped, an all-reel stop signal is transmitted to the sub-control circuit 72.

  Next, the CPU 31 makes a winning determination (S11). The winning determination is a winning combination based on a stop mode of each symbol of the reels 3L, 3C, and 3R in the center line (a stop mode of each symbol of the pseudo reels 4L, 4C, and 4R in the center line 8c). ) To identify. Then, the winning signal is transmitted to the sub control circuit 72. Thereafter, credit or payout of the acquired medal is performed (S12). Specifically, in the case where a medal is obtained by winning, a display unit 17 displays the number of acquired medals. Then, by switching the C / P button 14 by the player, it is determined whether to credit the acquired medal into the gaming machine 1 or pay out the medal from the medal payout exit 15. The credited medal can bet by pressing the BET buttons 11 and 12 in the next game.

  Next, moving to FIG. 8, it is determined whether or not the current gaming state is “BB gaming state” or “RB gaming state” (S13). If it is determined that the gaming state is “BB gaming state” or “RB gaming state” (S13: YES), “payout number check process” of bonus (BB, RB) is performed (S14). In the “payout number check process”, the number of medals paid out in the BB gaming state and the number of medals paid out in the RB gaming state are checked.

  Next, it is determined whether or not the bonus is over (S15). More specifically, after the BB winning is established, it is determined whether or not a predetermined number of (for example, 240) medals have been paid out in the BB gaming state. Further, after the RB winning is established, it is determined whether or not a predetermined number (for example, 120) of medals has been paid out in the RB gaming state. As a result, when it is determined that the bonus is not finished (S15: NO), the process returns to S2. Thereby, the gaming state of the next unit game is maintained in the BB gaming state or the RB gaming state.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the bonus has ended (S15: YES), a bonus end signal is output to the sub-control circuit 72 (S16), and the BB operating flag or RB operating flag is turned off (S17). ). The BB operating flag and the RB operating flag are flags for determining whether the gaming state is the BB gaming state or the RB gaming state.

  Then, it is determined whether or not RT is started (S18). If it is determined that RT is not started (S18: NO), the process returns to S2. Thereby, the gaming state of the next unit game becomes the general gaming state. On the other hand, if it is determined that RT is started (S18: YES), the RT operating flag is turned on (S19), and the process returns to S2. As a result, the gaming state of the next unit game becomes the RT gaming state. The RT operating flag is a flag for determining whether or not the RT gaming state is set.

  In S13, when it is determined that the gaming state is not “BB gaming state” or “RB gaming state” (S13: NO), it is subsequently determined whether or not the BB and RB are won in the current game ( S20). If it is determined that the BB or RB has been won (S20: YES), the carryover combination carried over is deleted by clearing the carryover combination storage area (S21). Then, it is determined whether or not it is during RT (S22). If it is determined that RT is in progress (S22: YES), an RT end signal is output to the sub-control circuit 72 (S23), and the RT operating flag is turned off (S24).

  In S22, when it is determined that RT is not in progress (S22: NO), or after S24, the BB operating flag or RB operating flag is turned on (S25), and the process returns to S2. Thereby, the gaming state of the next unit game becomes the BB gaming state or the RB gaming state.

  If it is determined in S20 that BB or RB has not been won (S20: NO), it is subsequently determined whether or not RT has been won in the current game (S26). If it is determined that the RT has been won (S26: YES), the RT operating flag is turned on (S27), and the process returns to S2. As a result, the gaming state of the next unit game becomes the RT gaming state. On the other hand, when it is determined that the RT has not been won (S26: NO), it is determined whether or not the RT has ended (S28). Specifically, in the RT gaming state, whether or not a unit game has been played a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 games), a prize of a specific small role (cherry small role in the present embodiment) is won in the current game. It is determined whether or not it is established. As a result, when it is determined that it is not the end of RT (S28: NO), the process returns to S2. Thereby, the gaming state of the next unit game is maintained in the general gaming state or the RT gaming state.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the RT has ended (S28: YES), an RT end signal is output to the sub-control circuit 72 (S29), the RT operating flag is turned off (S30), and the process returns to S2. Thereby, the gaming state of the next unit game becomes the general gaming state.

(Operation of gaming machine 1: sub-control circuit 72)
When various processes are executed by the main routine in the main control circuit 71, results and contents corresponding to the processes are input to the sub-control circuit 72 as commands and data. In the sub control circuit 72, an effect processing routine or the like (not shown) is executed independently. Then, by executing the effect processing routine, the pseudo reels 4L, 4C, and 4R are displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5 so as to be synchronized with the reels 3L, 3C, and 3R, and an effect image based on the command is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5. Display. For example, when a command indicating the insertion of medals is input, an effect image that prompts the user to operate the start lever 6 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5. Further, with the production from the liquid crystal display device 5 or independently, the production with the light output from the LED lamp 29 and the production with the sound output from the speakers 21L, 21R, and 21B are performed.

  As described above, the sub control circuit 72 causes the liquid crystal display device 5 to display the QR code 60 at the start of the game. In this manner, the QR code 60 in which an address for accessing a site where the image data acquisition program can be acquired is encoded is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5 as an image at the start of the game. As a result, the displayed QR code 60 can be imaged and decoded by the mobile phone terminal 200, and an image data acquisition program can be acquired from the site indicated by the QR code 60. It becomes easy to operate the mobile phone terminal 200 so as to store the image data.

(Operation of sub-control circuit 72: image data transfer processing routine)
In the sub-control circuit 72, the image data transfer processing routine of FIG. 9 is executed in parallel with the above-described effect processing routine.

  That is, when the image data transfer processing routine is executed, as shown in FIG. 9, first, the sub CPU 74 determines whether or not a standby signal has been received from the mobile phone terminal 200 (A1). If it is determined that the standby signal has not been received (A1: NO), A1 is repeated to wait for standby signal reception. On the other hand, if it is determined that a standby signal has been received (A1: YES), all image ID data is transmitted to the mobile phone terminal 200 (A2). Then, it is determined whether an image request signal is received from the mobile phone terminal 200 (A3).

  If it is determined that the image request signal has been received (A3: YES), an unacquired image is specified (A4), and the image selection screen 61 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5 (A5). At this time, the acquired notification image 64 is displayed so as to overlap the acquired digest image, and an unacquired digest image (specific image) is displayed so as to be selectable. Then, it is determined whether an image has been selected (A6). If it is determined that no image is selected (A6: NO), A6 is repeated. If it is determined that the image has been selected (A6: YES), the selected display image 65 is displayed on the selected digest image so as to be displayed as a selected image (A7).

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the selection is completed by operating the completed image 66 (A8). If it is determined that the selection is not completed (A8: NO), the process returns to A6 to select the next digest image. On the other hand, when it is determined that the selection is completed (A8: YES), the image selection screen 61 is erased from the liquid crystal display device 5 (A9), and the game returns.

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the selected image is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5 (A10). If it is determined that the selected image is not displayed (A10: NO), A10 is repeated. On the other hand, when it is determined that the selected image is displayed (A10: YES), the image data relating to the selected image is transmitted to the mobile phone terminal 200 (A11).

  As described above, when the selected image selected by the player among the specific images not stored in the RAM 205 of the mobile phone terminal 200 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5, the image data related to the selected image is displayed. Is transmitted to the mobile phone terminal 200 and stored in the RAM 205 of the mobile phone terminal 200. Thereby, since unacquired images that are not stored in the mobile phone terminal 200 are successively stored in the mobile phone terminal 200, it is possible to reliably acquire unacquired images. Further, by allowing the player to select an image to be acquired, an unacquired image can be acquired efficiently.

  Then, it is determined whether all selected images are displayed (A12). If it is determined that all the selected images are not displayed (A12: NO), the process returns to A10. On the other hand, when it is determined that all the selected images are displayed (A12: YES), the process returns to A3. Thereby, it waits for reception of a further image request signal.

  If it is determined in A3 that the image request signal has not been received (A3: NO), it is determined whether or not an all-image acquisition signal has been received (A13). If it is determined that the entire image acquisition signal has not been received (A13: NO), the process returns to A3. On the other hand, when it is determined that all image acquisition signals have been received (A13), the image selection screen 61 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 5 (A14). In this case, the acquired notification image 64 is displayed so as to overlap all the digest images 63a to 63i. Then, waiting for elapse of a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds) is performed (A15), and then the image selection screen 61 is deleted from the liquid crystal display device 5 (A16) and the process returns to A3.

(Operation of terminal control circuit 201: image data acquisition processing routine)
On the other hand, when the image data acquisition program is executed in the terminal control circuit 201 of the mobile phone terminal 200, the image data acquisition processing routine of FIG. 10 is executed.

  That is, when the image data acquisition processing routine is executed, as shown in FIG. 10, first, the CPU 203 determines whether or not the data transfer connector 101 is connected to the connector 223 (B1). If it is determined that the data transfer connector 101 is not connected (B1: NO), B1 is repeated to wait for connection of the data transfer connector 101. On the other hand, if it is determined that the data transfer connector 101 is connected (B1: YES), a standby signal is transmitted to the gaming machine 1 (B2), and all image ID data is received from the gaming machine 1 (B3).

  Thereafter, an unacquired image is specified based on the entire image ID data and the image data stored in the RAM 205 (B4), and the information image 68 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 221 (B5).

  In this way, the information image 68 based on all the image ID data received from the gaming machine 1 and the image data stored in the RAM 205 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 221 of the mobile phone terminal 200. As a result, information such as the number of image data that is not stored in the mobile phone terminal 200 among the image data stored in the gaming machine 1 is displayed on the mobile phone terminal 200, thereby making it easy for the player to obtain the image acquisition status. Can be grasped.

  Then, it is determined whether or not a predetermined button (for example, a button that triggers the start of data transfer) has been operated (B6). If it is determined that the predetermined button has not been operated (B6: NO), By repeating B6, the operation waits for a predetermined button. On the other hand, when it is determined that a predetermined button has been operated (B6: YES), it is determined whether or not all images have been acquired (B7).

  If it is determined that all images have been acquired (B7: YES), an all image acquisition signal is transmitted to the gaming machine 1 (B8), and the process returns to B4. On the other hand, if it is determined that all images have not been acquired (B7: NO), an image request signal for requesting unacquired image data is created (B9), and this image request signal is transmitted to the gaming machine 1. (B10).

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not image data has been received (B11). If it is determined that image data has been received (B11: YES), the image data is stored in the RAM 205 (B12), and the acquired image data is stored in the acquired image data. The image 67 is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 221 (B13). Then, the information image 68 is updated and displayed on the liquid crystal display device 221 (B14).

  When it is determined in B11 that image data has not been received (B11: NO), or after B14, it is determined whether or not a predetermined button (for example, a button that triggers the start of data transfer) has been operated ( B15) When it is determined that the predetermined button is not operated (B15: NO), the process returns to B11. On the other hand, if it is determined that the predetermined button has been operated (B15: YES), the process returns to B7. Thereby, when there is unacquired image data, an image request signal is transmitted to the gaming machine 1 again.
