Description

  The present invention relates to a game effect of a pachinko gaming machine.

Conventionally, in the pachinko machine, the special symbol starts to change with the establishment of the start condition, and the special symbol is stopped at a specific symbol (for example, “3” symbols such as “777”). It is comprised so that it may transfer to the big hit state which is.
In such a pachinko gaming machine, in order to improve the interest of the player's game, for example, a presentation such as a problem (hereinafter referred to as a mission!) Such as “a big hit if you become a reach!” An effect pattern that indicates the type of the game is notified to the player, and apparently, the effect pattern that is executed is executed so that if the mission is successful and the mission is successful, the notified effect pattern is executed (Patent Document) 1).
In addition, for example, there has been proposed one that executes an effect display pattern in which a special symbol variation display that is normally performed once when a start condition is satisfied is repeatedly performed a plurality of times between the start and end of the variation display. (Patent Document 2).

However, a game effect (hereinafter referred to as a mission effect) with a mission as described above, or a game effect (hereinafter referred to as a continuously variable effect) in which a variable display is repeatedly executed within a single effect period, Currently, it is widely recognized by general players because it is widely used in various pachinko machines. For this reason, the current situation is that the player has become accustomed to these game effects and is unable to arouse the interest of the player.
In particular, in the mission effect, the winning probability for the jackpot is different from the probability fluctuation state after the jackpot and the normal winning probability remains, so the probability of achieving the mission is also low. For this reason, even if the mission effect itself is interesting, the game effect is not interesting because the player has a low expectation for the big hit.
Therefore, it is conceivable to perform a mission effect as a game effect at the time of winning the big hit, but in that case, since the mission is achieved with a variable display immediately after the mission effect is activated, the player feels a sense of thrill by the mission effect. There was a drawback that I could not enjoy it.
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described points, and an object thereof is to provide a pachinko gaming machine capable of realizing a game effect including an interesting mission effect for a player.

In order to achieve the above object, the pachinko gaming machine according to claim 1 receives main control means for selecting a fluctuation pattern in accordance with establishment of a start condition, and the fluctuation pattern command output from the main control means. Sometimes, an effect control means for controlling execution of a game effect corresponding to the variation pattern, and a display means capable of displaying a special symbol and an effect image, wherein the effect control means is within one game effect period. The present invention is characterized in that it can execute a game effect that combines a first game effect that presents a specific mission and a second game effect that repeats the special symbol on a plurality of circuits on the display means. To do.
Further, the pachinko gaming machine according to claim 2 includes a decoration body configured to be movable along a front surface of the game board, and the specific mission in the first game effect is based on an operation of the decoration body. It is characterized by that.

  In the present invention, a game effect that combines a first game effect that presents a specific mission and a second game effect that repeats a plurality of special symbol variations on the display means can be executed. When it is executed as a game effect at the time of winning the jackpot in the special game state, it seems that it is possible to perform the effect as if the mission was achieved after displaying multiple fluctuations, so the player can feel the excitement of the mission effect. It becomes possible to give.

As a normal symbol, a numerical symbol, an alphabet symbol, a character symbol, and other appropriate game symbols are used. Then, when the normal symbol is in a predetermined mode by random number control on the condition that the game ball has passed through the gate 14, the movable piece made of the electric tulip 17 provided in the variable winning device 11 is opened for a predetermined time. Is configured to do.

  The special symbol displayed on the symbol display device 9 is configured to be in a big hit state when the stop symbol is a predetermined symbol combination, for example, the same symbol combination. The special symbol is displayed by random number control or the like on condition that the game ball is detected at the lower start port (not shown) where the game ball is guided by the opening operation of the upper start pocket 13 or the electric tulip 17 of the variable winning device 11 Is scrolled for a predetermined time (variable) with a predetermined fluctuation pattern, such as scrolling, and stops at a symbol. At that time, when two stop symbols become the same on the active line, a reach state occurs, and in this reach state, the last stop symbol on the active line is already stopped. A big hit state occurs when they are the same. In addition, as a special symbol, a numerical symbol, an alphabet symbol, a character symbol, etc. can be used.

FIG. 2 is a front view showing a state where a belt as a decorative body is lowered.
As shown in FIG. 2, the decorative body 30 has a horizontal length slightly shorter than the horizontal width of the display screen of the symbol display device 9, and a windmill decoration 31 that is rotationally driven by a motor and gear (not shown) on the front surface. Is rotatably supported. The decorative body 30 on which the motor, gears, windmill decoration, and printed circuit board are mounted is heavy, and this decorative body 30 maintains a horizontal posture by the cooperation of the lifting and lowering units 35 arranged one by one on the left and right sides. It is driven up and down. Each lifting unit 35 is concealed in the left and right side portions 7a and 7b of the center member 7 and has a symmetrical configuration.
Further, in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, when the decorative body 30 is in the raised position, the upper surface side of the display screen 9a of the symbol display device 9 at the back position invisible to the player positioned in front by the decorative body 30 An illumination display 21 using an illumination lamp such as an LED is provided at a position adjacent to.

Here, the structure of the decorative body 30 provided in the pachinko gaming machine of the present embodiment will be described.
3 (a) and 3 (b) are front side perspective views showing a state in which the decorative body is in the raised position and a state in which the decorative body is in the lowered position, respectively, and FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b) are views of the decorative body. It is a rear view which shows the state in an up position, and the state in a down position, respectively.
The elevating unit 35 meshes with the base member 36 fixedly disposed on the center member 7, the drive motor 37 supported by the base member 36, the drive gear 38 rotated by the drive motor 37, and the drive gear 38. A rotating driven gear 39, a rod-like link member 40 pivotally supported at one end 40a by a support shaft 39a provided at an eccentric position on one surface of the driven gear 39, and one end 41a on the back side of the decorative body And an arm 41 that is pivotally supported at an appropriate position and is pivotally supported by the swing shaft 36a provided on the base member 36 at the other end 41b so as to be swingable in the vertical direction.
The other end portion 40b of the link member 40 is pivotally supported by the pivotal support portion 41c of the arm 41, and the arm 41 is driven to swing by rotating the drive motor 37 forward and backward so that one end portion of the arm 41 is moved. The supported decorative body 30 can be raised and lowered. The decorative body 30 can be lifted and lowered while maintaining a horizontal posture by synchronously driving the lifting and lowering units 35 arranged on the left and right.
The means for synchronizing both the lifting units 35 is a CPU of a lamp control board of a game control device to be described later, and is realized by the CPU of the lamp control board controlling the drive motors constituting each lifting unit in synchronization.

Moreover, in this embodiment, since each raising / lowering unit has a drive motor, the decoration body which is a heavy article can be raised / lowered with sufficient drive force. In particular, the descent is not due to falling by its own weight.During the descent, the driving force from the drive motor is applied to the decorative body consistently via the arm. Can be increased.
The shaft support portion 41c that supports the other end portion 40b of the link member 40 is set as close to the other end portion 41b of the arm 41 as possible so that the link member 40 swings as the drive gear 38 rotates. A part of the link member is prevented from projecting into the central opening of the center member 7 and being viewed from the front.
The pin 42 provided at the one end 41 a of the arm 41 is allowed to move in the lateral direction of the decorative body relative to the arm 41 by loosely fitting into a horizontally long slot 32 provided on the back surface of the decorative body 30. Thereby, it is possible to prevent an excessive load from being applied to the connecting portion between the arm 41 and the decorative body when the decorative body is moved up and down, and the decorative body is moved up and down smoothly.
Since the drive gear 38 integrated with the output shaft of the drive motor 37 is in the state shown in FIGS. 3A and 4A, the support shaft 39a of the driven gear 39 that meshes with the drive gear 38 is located above. The link member 40 whose one end is supported by the support shaft 39a is in a state where the arm 41 is pulled up. The arm 41 raises the one end portion 41a around the other end portion 41b pivotally supported by the swing shaft 36a by a force that pulls upward on the shaft support portion 41c.

  At the normal time, the decorative body 30 is stopped at the raised position shown in FIGS. 3 (a) and 4 (a). When a drive start signal in the downward direction is output from the CPU of the lamp control board to both drive motors 37, both drive motors 37 are energized, and each drive gear 38, each driven gear 39, each link member 40, A driving force in the downward direction is transmitted to each arm 41, and the decorative body 30 is lowered. When the decorative body 30 is completely lowered, the energization of the drive motors 37 is interrupted and stopped. When a signal instructing driving in the upward direction is output from the CPU of the lamp control board, both drive motors 37 are energized to start reverse rotation, and each drive gear 38, each driven gear 39, each link member 40, A driving force in the upward direction is transmitted to each arm 41, and the decorative body 30 is raised. The switches SW provided in both the lifting and lowering units 35 are actuated when the detected parts provided in the respective arms 41 are detected and output a detection signal to the CPU of the lamp control board. The CPU of the lamp control board is based on this detection signal. Shut off the power to the drive motor.

The characteristic game effects of the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described below based on the above description.
In the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, a mission effect (first game effect) presenting a specific task and a continuous variation that repeats a variable display a plurality of times (for example, once to three times) within one performance period. A game effect (hereinafter referred to as a special effect mode) combined with the effect (second game effect) can be executed.
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a timing chart in the case of performing a game effect display combining a mission effect and a continuous variation effect. FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 are diagrams showing an example of a display mode when a game effect display combining a mission effect and a continuous variation effect is performed. In FIGS. 5 to 7, the case where the variable display is performed three times within one effect period will be described as an example.

  First, when a winning of a game ball is detected by the upper start SW 13a or the lower start SW 13b, and the special effect mode combining the mission effect and the continuously variable effect is selected as the change pattern, the symbol display device shown in FIG. At time t1 when 9 starts to change, a mission image is displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9. For example, a mission display such as “Rotate the belt!” Shown in FIG. Next, an image indicating the number of chances is displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9. For example, if the number of chances is 3, a display such as “CHANCE 03 TIMES!” Shown in FIG. Thereafter, the symbol display of the symbol display device 9 is changed (FIG. 6C), and at the time t2 shown in FIG. 5, the symbol display of the symbol display device 9 is temporarily stopped (FIG. 6D). At this time, the number of chances displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9 is changed from “03” to “02”. Thereafter, the symbol display on the symbol display device 9 is changed again, and the symbol display on the symbol display device 9 is temporarily stopped again at time t3 shown in FIG. 5 (FIG. 7A). Then, the number of chances displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9 is changed from “02” to “01”.

Thereafter, the symbol display of the symbol display device 9 is changed again, and the symbol display of the symbol display device 9 is temporarily stopped again at time t4 shown in FIG. 5 (FIG. 7B). Then, the number of chances displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9 is changed from “01” to “00”. Then, the fluctuation is stopped at a time t5 when a predetermined time has elapsed from the time t4. That is, one game effect corresponding to the special variation pattern is finished.
Here, for example, when the special variation pattern is selected along with the winning of the big hit, the mission is executed within the period of time t2 to t5 shown in FIG. For example, as shown in FIG. 7C, the windmill decoration 31 of the decorative body 30 is rotated while moving the decorative body 30 in the downward direction. Thereafter, the completion of the mission is displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9. For example, a display such as “command achieved!” Shown in FIG.
On the other hand, if the special variation pattern is not selected in accordance with the jackpot winning, the mission effect is finished without performing the mission within the period from time t2 to t5 shown in FIG.

As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, by combining the mission effect and the continuous variation effect, for example, even when the mission effect is executed as the game effect at the time of winning the big hit, it appears that the variation is a plurality of times. Since it is possible to produce the mission as if it were achieved after the display, it is possible to give the player a feeling of excitement due to the mission production.
Also, if a special effect mode that combines mission effects and continuously variable effects is executed without a big win, even if the player recognizes that it is a special effect mode, is the big win won? I don't know whether or not, so I won't lose my thrill of the mission.

Next, in the pachinko gaming machine of this embodiment, an effect control method when performing a game effect in the special effect mode will be described.
FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating processing executed by the game control board 111 when performing a game effect in the special effect mode in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment. Note that the processing shown in FIG. 9 is realized by the CPU 112 of the game control board 111 executing a program stored in the ROM 113.
In this case, in step S1, the CPU 112 determines whether or not the game ball has won the start opening by the start SWs 13a and 13b, and determines that the game ball has won the start opening (“YES” in S1). Then, the process proceeds to step S2, and the variation pattern is selected based on the random number acquired by winning the start opening. In the subsequent step S3, the selected variation pattern command is transmitted to the effect control unit 121 of the effect control board 120, and the process returns to step S1. In step S1, if the start SW 13a, 13b cannot detect the winning of the game ball at the starting port, the process is repeated until the winning at the starting port is detected.

FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating processing executed by the effect control unit 121 when a variation pattern command is received from the game control board 111. Note that the processing shown in FIG. 10 is realized by the CPU 122 of the game control unit 121 executing a program stored in the ROM 123.
In this case, the CPU 122 determines whether or not a variation pattern command has been received in step S11. If the CPU 122 detects reception of the variation pattern command (“YES” in S11), the process proceeds to step S12. In step S12, the received variation pattern command is analyzed to determine whether or not it is the special effect mode. If it is determined that the mode is the special effect mode (“YES” in S12), the process proceeds to step S13 to execute the special effect mode process. On the other hand, if it is determined that the mode is not the special effect mode (“NO” in S12), the process proceeds to step S14 to execute another effect mode process corresponding to the variation pattern command. In step S11, if the variation pattern command cannot be received, the process is repeated until the variation command pattern is received.

FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating processing executed by the image / sound controller 131 when performing a game effect in the special effect mode with a big win. Note that the processing shown in FIG. 11 is realized by the CPU 132 of the image / sound control unit 131 executing a program stored in the ROM 133.
In this case, the CPU 132 performs a lottery of the counter value X indicating the number of chances in Step S21, and substitutes the obtained counter value X for the variable i in subsequent Step S22. Next, in step S23, the mission image is displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9 (FIG. 6A), and in the subsequent step S24, an image indicating the number of chances is displayed (FIG. 6B). Thereafter, in step S25, the changed symbol display of the symbol display device 9 is temporarily stopped (FIG. 6D).

Next, in Step S26, a lottery effect lottery is performed, and when it is determined that the jackpot effect is won in the following Step S27 ("YES" in S27), the process proceeds to Step S28 and an effect corresponding to the mission is executed. . For example, if the mission requires rotation of the windmill decoration of the decorative body 30, the decorative body 30 is moved in the downward direction as shown in FIG. 7C, and the windmill decoration of the decorative body 30 is rotated. Thereafter, in step S29, the completion of the mission is displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9 (FIG. 7D), and the special effect mode processing is terminated.
On the other hand, when it is determined in step S27 that the big hit effect is not won, the process proceeds to step S30, and the value of the variable i is subtracted by one. In step S31, after changing the display of the number of chances, it is determined in step S32 whether or not the value of the variable i is “0”. If the value of the variable i is “0” ( If “YES” in S32), the process proceeds to step S28, and if the value of the variable i is not “0” (“NO” in S32), the process returns to step S25 to perform processing. Thereby, in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, it is possible to execute a game effect in a special effect mode with a big win.

FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating processing executed by the image / sound control unit 131 when performing a game effect in the special effect mode without a big win. Note that the processing shown in FIG. 12 is also realized by the CPU 132 executing a program stored in the ROM 133.
In this case, the CPU 132 performs lottery of the counter value X indicating the number of chances in step S41, and substitutes the counter value X obtained in the variable i in the subsequent step S42. Next, in step S43, the mission image is displayed on the display screen of the symbol display device 9 (FIG. 6A), and in the subsequent step S44, an image indicating the number of chances is displayed on the symbol display device 9 (FIG. 6 ( b)). Thereafter, in step S45, the changed symbol display of the symbol display device 9 is temporarily stopped (FIG. 6D).

  Next, in step S46, the value of the variable i is decremented by 1, and in the subsequent step S47, the display of the number of chances is changed. In step S48, it is determined whether or not the value of the variable i is “0”. If the value of the variable i is “0” (“YES” in S48), the special effect mode processing is terminated. . On the other hand, if the value of the variable i is not “0” (“NO” in S48), the process returns to step S45 to continue the processing. Thereby, in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, it is possible to execute a game effect in a special effect mode that is not accompanied by a big win.

In the present embodiment, the case where the belt of the decorative body 30 is rotated is described as an example as a mission in the mission effect. However, this is only an example, and other missions such as “Leach Reach” or Needless to say, “Let ’s reach 7”. Further, in the present embodiment, the number of times of variable display within one effect period in the continuously variable effect is described as “1 to 3 times”, but the number of times of change display may be three or more.
Further, in the present embodiment, the timing for performing the mission display is the time when the symbol of the symbol display device 9 starts to change, but is merely an example, and when the symbol display of the symbol display device temporarily stops or Alternatively, it may be performed at various times such as when a predetermined time has elapsed since the temporarily stopped symbol variation display started.
Further, in the processing shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, the value of the variable i is subtracted by 1 by temporarily stopping the symbol display, but the processing of the game control board shown in the flowchart of FIG. You may comprise so that the frequency | count of chance (number of times of temporary stop) may be included in the fluctuation pattern selected in step S2.
