But, a hidden addition (internal storage) is performed without a whole or a part of the determined additional privilege being notified to a player. During an operation of an RBB2 with a setting difference, the RBB2 with the setting difference being another game state different from the game state where the giving of the privilege was determined, the stored additional privilege is to be notified to the player.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4

Description

  The present invention relates to a spinning machine, other slot machines, arcade game machines, and other gaming machines. In particular, the present invention relates to a gaming machine provided with an advantageous section in which an instruction function for a stop operation can be activated.

  In Patent Document 1, a medal with a high payout exceeding the number of coins inserted when the correct answer is given in the order of pressing the stop button during the replay time RT in which the probability of winning a re-game can be performed without the insertion of a new medal. Equipped with assist replay time ART that activates assist time AT to notify correct push order etc. of push order bell で き る that can be acquired, and real bonus due to に related to a feature that is a special device to facilitate winning If a real bonus is won during ART, a game machine that can continue the ART by adding “+ 10G” etc. to the number of continuing games of the ART during the real bonus and returning to the ART after digesting the real bonus. (FIG. 48 (c) etc.).

JP2015-112380A

  With the above, it is possible to change from low setting to high setting by making the setting difference that makes the winning probability of the bonus of the function bonus by the real bonus variable according to the setting difference that is a combination of the winning probability of the trap. Appropriate adjustment of the ball is possible within the variable range. In this case, as described in the above document, if the number of continued ART games is added during a real bonus with a setting difference, the higher the setting, the greater the number of balls played due to the real bonus, which increases the frequency of operation. An increase in the number of balls due to the addition of the number of games will be added, and the preferential specification for the instruction function will be weighted to the preferential specification for the ball due to the operation of the accessory itself, and there is a possibility that the fairness of the game cannot be secured. This is because, if a real bonus with a setting difference is used as an opportunity to increase the number of continued ART games, the gambling will be too high depending on the set value. Therefore, it is preferable not to change the performance of the instruction function such as adding during a real bonus with a difference in setting. However, in this way, the game during the real bonus digestion becomes monotonous and the game entertainment may be reduced. There is.

  It is an object of the present invention to prevent monotony of a game during digestion of a real bonus, etc. by devising a determination time and a notification time of a privilege related to an instruction function such as an addition while ensuring fairness of the game, thereby enhancing the interest of the game. It is in providing a gaming machine to obtain.

The reference numerals of the drawings are illustrated in parentheses for illustration.
It has a plurality of variable display elements (left reel 1L, middle reel 1C, right reel 1R) for variably displaying symbols of a plurality of frames,
An internal lottery means (K) for extracting a random number value for internal lottery triggered by a variable display start operation when the game medium is inserted, and determining a winning from a plurality of pre-defined baskets based on the extracted random number value; ,
Variable display control means (reel control) for allowing the variable display of the variable display element to be displayed based on the corresponding stop operation, and displaying the combination of symbols corresponding to the combination included in the winning combination determined by the internal drawing means. Means V),
A premise is a gaming machine in which a setting that is a combination of the winning probability of the kite can be changed, and an advantageous section is provided in which an instruction function for a stop operation on the variable display element can be activated.

The “variable display element” includes a reel, a belt, and an image.
“Game media” includes game medals, game balls, and electromagnetic records of storage devices.
“Kuji” is also called the winning area. The bag itself can also be called a conditional device or a conditional device group.
“Settings” means winnings, replays, and bonuses according to a specified number (specified for each type of game as the number of game medals that need to be inserted to obtain a game result once) Or the combination of the probability that each "condition apparatus" which concerns on operation | movement of an accessory continuous operation apparatus operates (figure machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3)). In short, it means a combination of the winning probabilities of the defined kites. Depending on the combination of the winning probabilities, it is generally possible to change the setting from 6 which is the lowest payout rate to 6 which is the highest payout rate.

“Condition device” is a condition necessary for the operation to display a combination of symbols related to the operation of “winning”, “replay”, “object”, or “object continuous operation device”. Devices that operate when they win an internal lottery (a lottery by an electronic computer performed in a gaming machine) (Attached Rules 2 of Article 6 of the Gaming Machine Rules). In short, it means a winning flag.
“Winning” means displaying a game medal or the like (a game medal or a game ball (gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (1) c)) that is determined in advance as a combination necessary for the symbol. (Game Machine Rules, Article 6, Schedule 2 (3) D.) A role related to “winning”, that is, a winning role is also called a small role.
“Re-game” refers to a game that can be played without inserting game medals or the like (gaming machine rule Article 6 Appendix 2 (3) b). A role related to replaying is also referred to as a replaying role.
It is also referred to as a non-actual character in the sense that it is not a character including a winning combination and a replay, and a character related to a non-character including a winning character (small role) and a re-playing character.
In addition, the operation of the re-game, the accessory, and the accessory continuous operation device is not a prize (National Institute of Technology, Chofu 155, May 26, 2004). (4) (1) B (C)).

“Function” means a special device for facilitating winning a prize (Article 9 of the Law Enforcement Regulations concerning Regulations on Customs Business and Optimization of Business, etc.). Include continuous object actuators. This means a so-called real bonus and does not include a so-called pseudo bonus due to the operation of the assist time AT.
“Consecutive Action Device” is a device that can continuously operate “First-class Special Features” or “Second-Class Special Features” when a combination of specific symbols is displayed. This is the one that operates and terminates the operation when it is determined in advance (Attached Table 2 (3) h of Gaming Machine Regulations Article 6). The accessory continuous actuating device related to the first kind special accessory is also referred to as a kind big bonus or simply a kind big, and is represented by RBB or BB. The accessory continuous operation device related to the second kind special accessory is also called a two-type big bonus or simply a two-type big, and is represented by CBB, MB, or the like.
"First-class special bonus" is an accessory that increases the number of symbol combinations related to winnings per prescribed number, or increases the probability that the "condition device" related to winnings per prescribed number will be activated. This means that the operation can be continued until a game result is obtained that does not exceed 12 times when it is determined in advance (gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3) G). The first kind special combination is also called a regular bonus, and is written in RB or the like.
"Type 2 special bonus" is a bonus that activates the condition device related to winning regardless of the result of the internal lottery. (Table 3 (Attached Table 2 (3) No. 2)). The second type special bonus is also called a challenge bonus and is written in CB or the like.

The “instruction function” refers to a function for instructing a stop operation position (pressed position) and a stop order (push order) for a variable display element that is performed for the purpose of assisting acquisition of a game medium.
“Activation of the instruction function” refers to instructing a stop operation position (pressed position) and stop order (pushing order) for a variable display element performed for the purpose of assisting acquisition of a game medium. ), A number for identifying an instruction information signal, which is a signal related to a condition device operating state that causes a difference in acquisition performance due to the instruction function, that is, for example, the instruction information signal is the first left stop button. Press, press the middle stop button second, and then press the right stop button third. If you want to indicate the stop order of “left middle right”, display the number “1” etc. and the peripheral control device ( In general, the navigation information corresponding to “123” or the like is displayed on the liquid crystal display device or the like managed by the peripheral board in accordance with the arrangement of the stop button. If the first stop instruction to press the first left stop button is instructed, the number “7” or the like is displayed on the main monitor (display), and “1xx” or the like is displayed on the liquid crystal display device or the like. It is also common to display “1--” or the like.

“Advantageous section” refers to a gaming section having a performance related to an instruction function, in which a push position and a stop order are instructed once or more for a winning combination relating to a winning where the maximum number of winnings is obtained. As a general rule, the number of games in the advantageous section exceeds the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 times), or after the operation of the first kind special feature or the continuous action device that has been activated during the advantageous section. If there is no opportunity to indicate the pressing position and stop order for the winning combination related to the winning combination for obtaining the maximum number of winnings by the end of the arbitrarily determined advantageous section, the instruction may not be given. is there. It is preferable that the transition to the advantageous section is determined in association with the winning of the kite to be drawn with the winning probability regardless of the setting difference. Further, during the advantageous section, “processing related to the instruction function” can be performed.
“Processing related to the instruction function” means direct processing related to the instruction right such as addition and continuation of the instruction function, indirect processing such as a lottery state and transition of the state transition (such as subtraction of the number of games), and advantageous intervals Is the process of ending. The processing related to the instruction function includes things advantageous to the player such as addition of the instruction function and disadvantageous to the player such as the end of the advantageous section.

A non-favorable section that is not an advantageous section is, in principle, a “normal section”.
The “normal section” is a section in which a signal (instruction information signal) relating to a condition device operating state in which a difference in acquisition performance is caused by the instruction function should not be transmitted to the peripheral board, and performance related to the instruction function (however, A game section that does not have any performance related to the instruction function and has no effect on any of the lotteries that move to the advantageous section. As a general rule, when a lottery is drawn in conjunction with a condition device related to a continuous actuating device for an accessory or a first-class special accessory, and an advantageous section transition lottery is won, the inside of the condition device (the rate of play by a predetermined simulation test is Except for the case of 1 or more), the purpose is to exclude the “standby section” in which the start of the advantageous section can be waited until the operation of the accessory continuous action device or the first type special accessory.

In the above,
During the advantageous section, a special condition that is advantageous to the player regarding the performance of the instruction function (addition) is provided by the provision of a predetermined condition that does not depend on the difference in the setting (addition winning tied to the winning combination of the bag without setting difference). Privilege grant determining means for determining grant (H21);
A privilege storage unit (H22) for internally storing all or part of the privilege determined without notifying the player when the privilege grant determination unit (H21) determines the grant of the privilege;
Stored in the privilege storage means (H22) in another gaming state (in RBB2 operation) in which the specification of the game is different from the gaming state (RT3) for which the privilege grant is determined by the privilege grant determination means (H21). Storage privilege notification means (H23) for notifying the player of the privilege.
Here, “provided with a predetermined condition that does not depend on the setting difference” means that a winning process is performed according to a lottery process according to the same winning probability even if the setting is different, and a process common to all settings that does not change even if the setting is different. It means meeting the corresponding conditions.

  Thereby, in the advantageous section, provision of a privilege that is advantageous to the player with respect to the performance of the instruction function is determined by the provision of the predetermined condition that does not depend on the setting difference, so that the fairness of the game can be ensured. This is because the number of continuous games of ART is not increased with a real bonus having a setting difference as in the conventional case, and the gambling is not excessively increased by the set value. Nevertheless, all or part of the determined privilege is internally stored without notifying the player, and the game state in which the bonus is determined is different from the gaming state in which the privilege is determined, The memorized privilege is notified to the player. For this reason, even if the other gaming state is a gaming state based on a winning of a setting difference, a bonus that has been determined under fair conditions is notified without determining the granting of the privilege in this gaming state. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the player from giving an impression that the privilege related to the instruction function cannot be obtained in the gaming state based on the winning of the setting difference, and even in the gaming state based on the winning of the setting difference, It becomes possible to play games with a sense of expectation for the benefits related to the instruction function. Therefore, while being fair, it is possible to prevent the monotony of the game and to enhance the game interest.

In the above, the notification by the memorized privilege notification means (H23) is a spear related to an accessory which is a special device for facilitating winning in which a game medium can be obtained, and does not correspond to the difference in the setting. It is set to be performed in a gaming state (RBB2 in operation) during the operation of an accessory based on the winning of a set differential effective player bag (RBB2) to be won with probability.
As a result, when a game state is active during the operation of an accessory based on a winning of a set difference effective object basket, it is possible to expect an increase in the number of balls played by the instruction function by informing the determined privilege. It is possible to dispel the impression that the winning prize is lower in value than the winning prize of the set difference unutilized item and effectively achieve the intended purpose.

Further, the process of reflecting the privilege stored in the privilege storage means (H22) as the performance of the instruction function shifts after the gaming state during the operation of the accessory based on the winning of the set differential effective player bag (RBB2) is finished. The specification is made in the gaming state (RT1).
Thereby, the fairness of a game can be improved further.

The perspective view of this invention gaming machine. The developed view of the reel which comprises a variable display element. A list of individual condition devices. A list of 籤 (winning areas) sorted by condition device to be won simultaneously. The block diagram of a control apparatus.

  FIG. 1 shows a swivel game machine to which the present invention is applied. The swivel type gaming machine is generally called a pachislot machine. In 1985, after revisions to the gaming machine rules, that is, the National Public Safety Commission Regulation No. 1 on January 30, 2004 (2004), 2 It is a slot machine that conforms to the National Public Safety Commission Regulation No. 4 “Rules for Game Machine Approval and Type Approval” on May 12. The terms and their technical contents are in accordance with the current game machine rules.

  The gaming machine housing 8B includes a honeycomb rear cabinet 8R, a cabinet frame 8W, and door-shaped upper and lower front cabinets 8E and 8F. The upper front cabinet 8E includes an upper liquid crystal display device 71 that displays in full color a navigation video corresponding to a production video, an instruction information signal by an assist time AT in an advantageous section, a dot matrix display device 73 that simulates a search light, a reel panel 8.

Note that left and right mean left and right in the player's line of sight facing the gaming machine.

  The lower front cabinet 8F has a lower liquid crystal display device 72 composed of a movable vision ATV that also serves as an operation unit 8S and a lower liquid crystal button AB for production, and displays a production movie or the like in cooperation with the upper liquid crystal display device 71. Side lamps E12 and E13 on both sides are provided. Reference numerals 91 to 94 denote speakers for outputting BGM and various sound effects, 8M denotes a medal payout port, and 8G denotes a medal tray. Inside the housing 8B is incorporated a woofer 90 that generates vibrations by reproducing heavy bass such as “do, do, do, doo”.

  The transparent display window 80 of the reel panel 8 includes a plurality of spinning cylinders, that is, a left reel 1L, a middle reel 1C, and a right reel 1R, which are variable display elements, on the outer periphery of each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R. Three consecutive frames out of a total of 20 symbols are exposed through the window. Each symbol scrolls from top to bottom during normal forward rotation, including during steady rotation. A plurality of rows and a plurality of symbol display positions displayed through the window of the display window 80, that is, the three rows of the left, middle, and right reels 1L, 1C, and 1R and the upper, middle, and lower three rows respectively. At 3 × 3 = 9 symbol display positions specified by columns and stages, for example, only the middle line (left middle-middle middle-right middle) is the effective line. Note that two or more lines including other lines may be effective lines.

  The operation unit 8S has a medal slot 2i for inserting a game medal as a game medium, a start button bi, up / down / left / right move buttons b1 to 4, and an end button bo, and can select and change the volume, light quantity, BGM, character, and the like. Cross key unit BT for customizing the actual machine, electromagnetic record of the storage device, that is, a bet button 3 for pulling out a prescribed number necessary for one game from credit, for example, 3 betting buttons, a medal tray 8G The adjustment button 4 is provided to correspond to the start lever 5 serving as a start switch for starting variable display (rotation) of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R, and the corresponding reel variable display ( Left stop button 6L, middle stop button 6C, and right stop, which are stop switches that individually stop rotation) Tan 6R, reject button 2R press when clogging medals downstream medal slot 2i, an operation hole 8K of door key.

  Also, a credit display DL1 for displaying the current number of credits, a main monitor MA for displaying the number of payout medals by winning and displaying a number for identifying the instruction information signal when the instruction function by the assist time AT in the advantageous section is activated. The payout indicator DL2 that also serves as an indicator that uses the dot to turn on when there is an advantageous section from the next game that has been determined to be transferred to the advantageous section, and turn off during the normal section from the next game after the advantageous section has ended The Ek, the 1-3 lamps EL1 to 3 that are turned on each time one, 2, or 3 medals are applied, the bet lamp ELb that is turned on when the medals can be accepted, and the start operation by the start lever 5 Start lamp ELs to light up when possible, light up when a combination of symbols related to replay is displayed and replay is activated It includes a game basic lamps 30 including a replay lamp ELr to.

  When the bet lamp ELb is lit, when one medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot 2i with the hanging medal being 0, the one lamp EL1 is lit, and when one is inserted, the two lamp EL2 is lit, and one more is inserted. The three-lamp lamp EL3 is lit and reaches the specified number. When the specified number of multiplying medals is reached, the start lamp ELs is turned on, and the start operation by the start lever 5 becomes possible. When a medal is further inserted into the medal insertion slot 2i without operating the start lever 5 from the state where the prescribed number has been reached, the counter of the credit indicator DL1 is advanced and can be stored up to a predetermined upper limit of 50 sheets. Up to 50 medals paid out by winning are added to the credit, and medals paid out exceeding 50 are received by the medal tray 8G from the medal payout opening 8M.

  As shown in FIG. 2, on the outer peripheral surface of each reel strip 10L, 10C, 10R, all 10 types of red 7, black bar, cherry, watermelon, bell, replay, blank 1, blank 2, blank 3, blank 4 These symbols are drawn by printing or the like in accordance with the symbol numbers 0, 1 to 19 and according to a unique vertical arrangement. The upper and lower ends of each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R are connected to form a ring, and the symbols are scrolled endlessly.

  Each reel 1L, 1C, 1R is a 20-frame reel that arranges 20-frame symbols. For driving each reel 1L, 1C, 1R, a stepping motor SM having a specification in which one step angle for driving 21-frame reel is about 1.43 degrees and rotates once in 504 steps by 1-2 phase excitation is used. In the case of 21-frame reels, an equal number of steps of 504/21 = 24 steps can be assigned per symbol, but in the case of 20-frame reels, 504/20 = 25.2 does not result in an integer solution, so an uneven number of steps is assigned. ing. Symbol number 1,3,6,8,11,13,16 in which the remainder of the integer solution obtained by dividing 26 with the larger number of steps and 24 with the smaller number of steps and dividing symbol numbers 0 to 19 by 5 is odd. Assign the lesser 24 steps to 18 symbols, and assign the more 26 steps to the other symbols 0, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 17, 19 ing.

  The stepping motor SM has a permanent magnet built-in type rotor Rm having a large number of rotor teeth on the outer periphery of the iron core, and a plurality of sets of magnetic poles having a plurality of stator teeth on the inner periphery of the magnetic pole. And a stator Sw wound around a phase (A bar phase (inverted phase of A)) and D phase (B bar phase (inverted phase of B)). 1-phase excitation and 2-phase excitation that turns on one winding and other adjacent windings are turned on by 1-2 phase excitation that repeats alternately every interrupt time, for example, t = 1.49 ms. A half step angle (one step angle by two-step update) is displaced by one step update of the pulse, and one rotation is made by step update of 504. Further, forward rotation and reverse rotation are made possible by changing the step update direction of the excitation pulse.

  At the time of steady rotation, each reel 1L, 1C, 1R makes one rotation at 750.96 ms, which is multiplied by 504 steps and 1 interrupt time 1.49 ms. Approximately 80 rotations per minute. The average time required for the symbol to move one frame is approximately 37.55 ms. According to the gaming machine rules, the first specified time “within 190 ms” from the normal reel stop operation to the stop is the maximum sliding piece in which an integer solution of ((190 ÷ 37.55) −1) = 4 frames is allowed. Number. Therefore, in each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R, when a symbol to be displayed is displaced up and down with a symbol of four frames or less in between, the symbol to be displayed can always be displayed on an effective line, and the display probability is 1 It becomes.

  As the stepping motor SM, a motor having a specification of rotating once by step update of 400 or the like that is a multiple of 20 by 1-2 phase excitation may be used, and one interrupt time may be set to 1.875 ms.

  FIG. 3 shows a combination of symbols on the effective line corresponding to each condition device (winning flag) which is a component of a bag (winning area) drawn by an internal lottery. The bonus is a uniform winning probability that does not depend on the setting, for example, the number of winning values, which is the value range that wins in the winning area, is 131. Set difference unrestricted property 籤 RBB1 by the continuous action device related to the object and set difference effective 籤 RBB2 caused by the continuous action device related to the first kind special character to be won with the winning probability according to the setting difference Is defined.

RBB2 winning probability is one hundredth to several thousandth probability, for example,
Setting 1 is 131 / 65536≈1 / 500,
Setting 2 is 138 / 65536≈ 1/475,
Setting 3 is 146 / 65536≈1 / 449,
Setting 4 is 154 / 65536≈ 1/426,
Setting 5 is 164 / 65536≈1 / 400,
Setting 6 is 174 / 65536≈1 / 377.

  If the combination of RBB1 action symbols "Red 7"-"Red 7"-"Red 7" could not be displayed in the game won by RBB1, the game state of "Inside RBB1" where the winning flag of RBB1 was carried over It becomes. If a combination of RBB1 action symbols can be displayed in the winning game of RBB1 or the inside of RBB1, the game state is active during RBB1 operation, and the first type special character RB is always active during RBB1 operation. The operation of RBB1 ends when the number of medals obtained from the start of operation exceeds a predetermined upper limit, for example, 297, and the operation of RB ends.

  In the game where RBB2 is won, if the combination of RBB2 action symbols “black bar”-“black bar”-“black bar” could not be displayed, the RBB2 winning flag was carried over and the game state “inside RBB2” It becomes. If a combination of RBB1 action symbols can be displayed in the winning game of RBB2 or the inside of RBB2, the game state is in operation of RBB2, and the RBB2 operation is always in operation of the first type special character RB. The operation of RBB2 is ended when the number of acquired medals from the start of operation exceeds a predetermined upper limit, for example, 297, and the operation of RB is also ended.

  In the non-combination that is not a combination, a combination (re-playing combination) REP 1 to 7 related to replay and a combination (winning combination (small combination)) NML 1 to 16 related to winning are defined. NML 13-16 pays out nine medals, and the other NML 1-12 pay out one medal. The blanks BLK1 to BLK3 are displayed at the time of overloading when the payout is 0 when any of the left bells 1 to 4, middle bells 1 to 4, and right bells 1 to 4 is selected. There are those that list a plurality of symbols in one column. For example, for REP2, the right symbol to be displayed corresponding to the right reel 1R means red 7 or black bar or watermelon. The double circle in the payout column means the operation of the role, and the same heavy circle means the operation of the replay. The remarks column shows the display of each role.

  FIG. 4 shows a winning area that is defined so as to have a different breakdown of the condition devices to be drawn by the internal lottery, that is, the simultaneous winning (double winning). For example, if the left bell 1 is NML5 + 9 + 14, it means that the bag of the left bell 1 simultaneously hits NML5, NML9, and NML14. In the internal lottery, when the start lever 5 is operated, one random number value from a counter that is updated at high speed within a predetermined range, for example, a 2-byte numerical range of 0 to 65535 (a total of 65536 numerical values) on the RWM of the main controller MC. Depending on which area the extracted random number value belongs to in the random number range 0 to 65535 divided by the numerical value range of the winning value corresponding to 籤, the 籤 related to winning, and therefore the conditions included in that 籤Determine the winning or winning flag of the device.

The specifications of the kite vary depending on the gaming state. There are the following eight game states, and the game state shifts as shown in the transition diagram in the remarks column.
[1] It becomes the transition destination after the operation of the set difference unusable property 籤 RBB1 or the set difference act 籤 RBB2, and the replay probability is 8978 / 65536≈1 / 7.3 when the combined winning value is 8978, for example. And the first replay time RT1 in a relatively low low-probability gaming state.
[2] The display shifts from RT1 to any one of blanks BLK1 to 3, and the specifications of the game relating to replay are different from RT1, but the total number of winning values is the same as 8978, and the replay probability is also 1/7. Non-RT (non-replay time) in a low-probability gaming state that is relatively low at 3.
[3] Promotion from non-RT to REP3 or REP4 display and fall to non-RT by display of REP2 or display of any of blanks BLK1 to 3, the replay probability is, for example, 40000 / 40,000 when the combined winning value is 40000 Second replay time RT2 in a highly probable gaming state with a relatively high 65536≈1 / 1.64.
[4] Although the specifications of the game that is promoted by the display of RT2 to REP5 and falls to non-RT by the display of any one of the blanks BLK1 to 3 are different from those of RT2, the replay probability is also about 1/1. The third replay time RT3 in a highly probable gaming state that is relatively high at 64.
[5] Regardless of the winning gaming state, ie, non-RT, RT1, RT2, RT3, the number of winnings for replaying is 8978, and the replaying probability is relatively reduced to about 1 / 7.3. Inside RBB1.
[6] Regardless of the winning gaming state, ie, non-RT, RT1, RT2, RT3, the number of winnings for replaying is 8978, and the replaying probability is relatively reduced to about 1 / 7.3. Inside RBB2.
[7] For all winning areas, during RBB1 operation that sets the winning flag for all small roles,
[8] The RBB 2 is in operation to establish the winning flags for all small combinations for all winning areas.

  Note that the gaming states [1] to [4] are so-called general games that are not hit by an accessory and are not in operation. In addition, the low-probability gaming state and / or the high-probability gaming state only needs to have at least one state, and there may be more states in which the breakdown and the number of winning values relating to replay are different.

  The advantageous section where the instruction function for the stop operation can be activated has a predetermined condition associated with the winning of the set no difference, which is drawn with a uniform winning probability that does not depend on the setting difference from the normal section of the non-favoring section. Transition to a predetermined number of guaranteed games, for example, 5 games (5G and G are games), and a transition from a normal zone or a chance zone CZ under specific conditions linked to a bag with no setting difference, There is provided an assist replay time ART that is more advantageous to the player as an assist time AT for operating the instruction function for a predetermined number of continuous games, for example, one set of 50 games or more in RT3 as a gaming state. In each of the above game states [1] to [8], there may be an advantageous section or a normal section. When the transition to the chance zone CZ is determined, the next game is changed to the chance zone CZ, and “CHANCE ZONE!” Or the like is displayed on the upper liquid crystal display device 71, and a countdown of the number of continued games is attached. When the shift to the assist replay time ART is determined, after the third reel stop operation from which the result of the game is derived, “Congratulations!” Or the like is displayed on the upper liquid crystal display device 71, and the upper liquid crystal is displayed from the next game. The display device 71 displays “ART in preparation” or the like.

  The chance zone CZ has a higher probability of going to ART than in the normal section, and it cannot win the transition to ART during the guaranteed 5 games, and the maximum number of medals that can be earned during that 5 games is 9 If the instruction function has been activated at least once by winning any of the choices that can win, the game ends when 5 games are exceeded and returns to the normal section. If it is not possible to win the transition to ART during 5 games, and there is no winning of any elected role, it waits for an advantageous section after 5 games and activates the instruction function when the elected role is won After that, return to the normal section. When the RBB1 or RBB2 hits during the chance zone CZ or during the advantageous zone where the transition to ART or ART has been decided, the advantageous zone is maintained and after the operation of the RBB1 or RBB2 is completed, the return to the chance zone CZ or ART It is possible.

  The unjustified number 0 is drawn in the gaming state except during RBB1 operation and RBB2 operation. During a general game, there is a setting difference in which the winning probability (number of winning values) is different depending on the setting 1-6.当 Winning an unjustified number 0, that is, drawing an unjustified means that there was no winning condition device in the game, and in principle, any combination of symbols corresponding to the role is displayed. However, if a mischief is drawn in the inside of the RBB1, the combination of the operating symbols of the RBB1 related to carryover can be displayed, and if a trick is drawn in the inside of the RBB2, the combination of the operating symbols of the RBB2 related to carryover can be displayed.

  The normal lip with 籤 number 1 (REP1 single win) is drawn in the gaming state except during RBB1 operation and RBB2 operation, and there is no setting difference, but the winning probability varies depending on the gaming state. If you hit a normal lip, the next game will be a replay.

  The RT2 transition lips 1 to 6 with the numbers 2 to 7 are drawn by non-RT only. The combined winning probability of the RT2 transition lips 1 to 6 is, for example, 5460 / 65536≈1 / 12, and there is no setting difference, and the probability of equally distributing the six types of RT2 transition lips 1 to 6 is 910 / 65536≈1 / 72. Let me win. REP3 or REP4 is displayed at the correct answer in the pressing order by 6 choices and can be promoted to RT2. Regardless of the display result, the next game is a re-game.

In the advantageous section where the transition to the assist replay time ART has been decided, if the RT2 transition lip 1-6 is hit in non-RT, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is made to correspond to the arrangement of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R,
If the correct answer push order is “left middle right” transition Lip 1, the navigation with “123” in the blue circle,
If the correct answer order is “Right / Left / Middle” Transition Lip 2, the navigation with “132” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is “middle left and right” transition Lip 3, the navigation with “213” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is “middle right left” transition lip 4, the navigation with “312” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is “Right / Left / Middle” Transition Lip 5, the navigation with “231” in the blue circle
If the correct answer push order is “Right-Middle-Left” transition Lip 6, the navigation marked with “321” is displayed in the blue circle, and REP3 or REP4 is displayed by the operation of the indication function by displaying the promoted navigation, and RT2 Easily promote to. The blue circle corresponds to blue, which is a general color of the replay symbol. This promotion navigator is not the navigator for the winning combination related to the winning in which the maximum number of acquisitions is obtained, but is issued only when the transition to ART has been decided.

  ＲＴ RT3 transition lip 1-3 of numbers 8-10 are drawn only by RT2. The combined winning probability of the RT3 transition lips 1 to 3 is, for example, 5460 / 65536≈1 / 12, and there is no setting difference, and the probability of equally distributing the three types of RT3 transition lips 1 to 3 is 1820 / 65536≈1 / 36. Let me win. REP5 is displayed at the correct push order by 3 choices and can be promoted to RT4. Regardless of the display result, the next game is a re-game.

In the advantageous section where the transition to the assist replay time ART has been decided, if the RT3 transition lip 1-6 is hit at RT2, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is made to correspond to the arrangement of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R,
If the correct answer is the first left stop transition Lip 1, the navigation with “1xx” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is the middle first stop transition lip 2, the navigation with “× 1 ×” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is in the right first stop transition Lip 3, the navigation with “XX1” in the blue circle
Each is displayed, and REP5 is displayed by the operation of the instruction function by the display of these promotion navigations, and is easily promoted to RT3. This promotion navigator is not the navigator for the winning combination related to the winning in which the maximum number of acquisitions is obtained, but is issued only when the transition to ART has been decided.

  After being promoted to RT3, an assist replay time ART is started in which a replay time RT that can maintain a replay high probability state more stably than RT2 and an assist time AT that activates an instruction function such as a bell navigation described later overlap. On the upper liquid crystal display device 71, the initial value (number of initial games) of the number of continued games of the assist time AT during ART is displayed together with “Rush Start!” Etc. to start ART, and thereafter assist during ART The upper liquid crystal display device 71 is accompanied by a display such as a countdown of the number of continuing games of the time AT and a display of the number of acquired medals accumulated after the shift to ART is determined. From the start of ART after promotion to RT3, subtraction of the number of continuing games in which the assist time AT during the ART continues is started, and when the number of continuing games becomes 0, the assist time AT is ended. At this point in time, the replay time RT is still a high replay probability state, but it is no longer the ART due to the end of the AT. When the operation of the instruction function is stopped with the end of the assist time AT, the blank BLK 1 to 3 is displayed, and the RT falls from the RT 3 to the non-RT, and the replay time RT which is a replay high probability state is also ended by the fall. At the time of falling to the non-RT, the advantageous section is terminated and shifted to the normal section. The advantageous period ends even when the continuous stay period exceeds the predetermined upper limit number of games of 1500, and when it exceeds 1500, the advantageous period ends even if the number of remaining continuous games of the assist time AT is one or more. To shift to the normal section. Even when the operation is over due to exceeding 1500 times, the operation of the instruction function is lost, and the blank BLK 1 to 3 falls to a non-RT. When the advantageous section is terminated and shifted to the normal section, all variables affecting the performance related to the instruction function, that is, all the stored information of the RWM of the main controller MC regarding the advantageous section including the occurrence and disappearance of the advantageous section are initialized. Turn into.

  The freezing lip number 11 is drawn with the same winning probability without any setting difference during general games. The winning probability is as extremely low as a few thousandth to 1/17500, for example, 4/65536 = 1/16384. If it can win the freeze-lip, the internal lottery (for example, using a 1-byte counter (0 to 255) that is updated at high speed on the RWM of the main controller MC independently of the random number for internal lottery following the internal lottery ( If the player is in the normal zone or the chance zone CZ with a predetermined probability, for example, 256/256 (100%), a preferential predetermined number of initial continuous games, for example, 300G (G; game), that is, one set is obtained. If it is 50G, it decides to shift to assist replay time ART that allows continuation of assist time AT for 6 sets, and when it is decided to shift to ART or during ART, assist time AT is set for 6 sets (300G). Determine the number of sets that can be extended.

  In addition, when the freeze is hit, a predetermined surprise effect such as blacking out the display on the upper liquid crystal display device 71 and a predetermined rotation such as reverse rotation of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R under a so-called freeze that temporarily stops the progress of the game. It is accompanied by a gyrus production that makes the movement of the above performed for the purpose of production. The surprise effect and the spinning effect are inserted between the operation of the start lever 5 and the stop operation of the reels 1L, 1C, 1R. Of course, the next game will be a re-game.

  Chance lip No. 12 is drawn with the same winning probability without any setting difference during general games. The winning probability is, for example, 1024/65536 = 1/64. If the chance lip can be won, the chance zone CZ is transferred with a predetermined probability, for example, 64/256 (25%) by the internal distribution lottery (two-stage lottery) following the internal lottery.

  The RBB small and medium-sized role ALL (NML 1-16 duplicated winnings) with the number 13 is drawn only during the RBB1 operation or the RBB2 operation. The RBB medium and small role ALL is won for the entire range of the winning area, and one of the NMLs 13 to 16 having a large payout is won, and nine medals are paid out.

  The common bell of number 14 (NML 13 and 14 overlapping winnings) is drawn with the same winning probability with no setting difference in the gaming state except during RBB1 operation and RBB2 operation. The winning probability is one-hundredth to one-hundredth, such as 256/65536 = 1/256, and the NML 13 in which the bells are arranged in the middle stage is preferentially awarded and 9 medals are paid out. The NML 14 functions as a control changer that is not necessarily intended for display. Except for the inside of RBB1 or the inside of RBB2, one set with a predetermined probability, for example, a probability of 64/256 (25%) in the normal section by the above-mentioned internal lottery (two-stage lottery) following the internal lottery The shift to the assist replay time ART is determined for the minute (50G).

  Watermelon No. 15 (NML15 single winning) draws with the same winning probability with no setting difference in the gaming state except during RBB1 operation and RBB2 operation. The winning probability is one-tenth to one-hundredth of winning probability, for example, 1024/65536 = 1/64, and nine medals are paid out. Except for the inside of RBB1 or the inside of RBB2, except for the inside lottery (two-stage lottery) following the internal lottery, when in the normal section, the chance zone CZ has a predetermined probability of 64/256 (25%), for example. Transition.

  Cherry number 16 (NML16 single winning) draws at the same winning probability with no setting difference in the gaming state except during RBB1 operation and RBB2 operation. The winning probability is one-tenth to one-hundredth, for example, 512/65536 = 1/128, and nine medals are paid out. Except for the inside of RBB1 or RBB2, inside the lottery (two-stage lottery) following the internal lottery, when in the normal section, transition to the chance zone CZ with a predetermined probability, for example, 128/256 (50%) Let

  The left bells 1 to 4 of the numbers 17 to 20 are the first stop to the left where the correct push order in which nine medals can be obtained by winning the NML 14 with the bells lined down to the right is to press the left stop button 6L first. The middle bells 1 to 4 of the 籤 numbers 21 to 24 are the first stop when the middle stop button 6C is pushed first, and the correct answer push order in which 9 medals can be obtained by winning the NML 13 where the bells are arranged in the middle row, The right bells 1 to 4 of numbers 25 to 28 are the first right stop where the right stop button 6R is pressed first in the correct pressing order in which nine medals can be won by winning the NML 13 in which the bells are arranged in the middle row. In the case of incorrect answer in the pressing order, either one of the single roles NML1 to NLM1 to be won in each winning area is won with a display probability of 1/4, or one of blanks BLK1 to 3 is displayed with a display probability of 3/4. .

  Each of the winning combinations of the numbers 17 to 28 is drawn with no set difference during the general game, and the winning probability is equally distributed for each of the four types of left bell, middle bell, and right bell, for example, 1950/65536 Win a total of 23400/65536. Except for the inside of RBB1 or RBB2, inside the chance zone CZ with a predetermined probability, for example, 5/256 (about 2%) when there is a normal section due to the internal distribution lottery (two-stage lottery) following the internal lottery Transition.

During the chance zone CZ or during the assist replay time ART or during the advantageous section where the transition is determined, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is made to correspond to the arrangement of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R,
If the correct answer is the left bell at the first stop on the left, the navigation with “1xx” in the yellow circle
If the correct push order is the middle bell at the first stop, the navigation with “× 1 ×” in the yellow circle
If the right answer is the right bell with the right first stop, the navigation indicated with “xx1” is displayed in the yellow circle, and nine pieces can be easily paid out by displaying the bell navigation. The yellow circle corresponds to yellow, which is a common color for bell designs.

  RBB1 with the number 29 (RBB1 single winning) is drawn without any setting difference as described above during the general game. When the RBB1 is won, the internal distribution lottery (two-step lottery) following the internal lottery will give a set probability (for example, 128/256 (50%)) for one set (50G). Transition to assist replay time ART is determined. In the case where an unfairness is drawn inside the RBB 1, the navigation system is designed so that a navigation of “Aim at Red 7!” Is displayed on the upper liquid crystal display device 71.

  RBB2 with the number 30 (RBB2 single win) is drawn with a setting difference as described above during the general game. Since there is a setting difference, it does not function as an opportunity to move to the advantageous section or a processing opportunity related to the instruction function in the advantageous section. In the case where an unfairness is drawn inside the RBB 2, the navigation system is designed so that a navigation “Aim at the black bar!” Is displayed on the upper liquid crystal display device 71.

  In the above specifications, the winning prizes of winning numbers 14 to 28 have the same winning probability in the general game, inside the RBB1 and inside the RBB2. This is because the probability variation of the winning combination is prohibited except when the combination is in operation (the gaming machine rule Article 6 Appendix Table 5 (1) B).

  Except for the inside of RBB1 or inside RBB2, during the advantageous section by chance zone CZ, if it can hit any so-called rare basket of chance lip, common bell, watermelon, cherry, Then, the winning of the ART is determined with a predetermined high probability, for example, a probability of 256/256 (100%), and the transition to the ART is determined for one set (50G). In addition, if you win any of the choices, instead of the low probability 5/256 (about 2%) of the internal distribution lottery (two-stage lottery) in the normal section, for example 25/256 (about 10%) The transition to ART is determined for one set (50G) with the increased probability.

  During the advantageous zone of the chance zone CZ, when RBB1 wins, it is transferred to ART with a probability of 100% for one set (50G), and when winning a freeze lip, it is ART for 6 sets (300G) with a probability of 100%. To migrate. Furthermore, counting from the end of the previous assist time AT in the advantageous section, and reaching the ceiling when a predetermined number of games, for example, 999G has passed in a situation where the transition to the assist replay time ART is not determined, the chance zone CZ When the arrival of the ceiling is determined, the transition to ART is determined for one set (50G).

  Except for the inside of RBB1 or RBB2, except for the inside of ART or during the advantageous section where the transition to ART has been decided, it was linked to the winning of the kite without any setting difference due to the provision of a predetermined condition not depending on the setting difference With the internal allocation lottery (two-stage lottery), the chance replies have a chance of 64/256 (25%), and the watermelons have a probability of 64/256 (25%). At the time of cherry winning, there is a probability of 128/256 (50%), and as a benefit that is advantageous to the player regarding the performance of the instruction function, the number of continued games of the assist time AT during ART is added to the predetermined number of games, for example, 10G Decide on the grant.

  During an advantageous period during which the transition to ART is decided, or when RBB1 wins, it will add 1 set (50G) with 100% probability, and when it will win freeze rip, it will be 6 sets (300G) with 100% probability Decide on the addition of. Privilege grants that determine the benefits of the player's performance with respect to the performance of the instruction function, including the addition of 10G based on winning chance chances, watermelons, and cherry candy The determining means H21 is constructed on the ROM of the main controller MC.

  On the ROM of the main controller MC, privilege storage means H22 for internally storing all or part of the benefits determined without notifying the player when the privilege grant determination means H21 determines the grant of the privilege. Is also building. The addition of one set (50G) due to the winning of RBB1 notifies the upper liquid crystal display device 71 of the addition of “+ 50G” in the final game where the operation of RBB1 ends. The addition of 6 sets (300G) by winning the freeze lip is accompanied by a spinning effect under the freeze, and it is obvious that a very advantageous privilege is given, so the number of added games is not notified again.

  On the other hand, the addition based on the winning of a rare basket with a winning probability of less than 100% is about half of the low-order bits of the random number extracted by the internal distribution drawing (two-step drawing), for example, at a predetermined distribution rate Performs a so-called “top-up” in which the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is notified of the addition of “+ 10G” via the peripheral control device SC in the rare combination game in which the addition is determined. For the remaining half of the lower-order bits of the random number value extracted by the internal distribution lottery (two-stage lottery), the surrogate is not executed and the effect animation on the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is continuously displayed, and the privilege memory is stored. By means H22, a so-called “backing” is executed in which the 10G addition is stored internally. That is, an effect video is displayed on the upper liquid crystal display device 71 in accordance with the progress of the game, but in the case of “front”, the effect that is displayed or superimposed on the displayed effect video. A message such as “+ 10G” is displayed on the highlighted video, etc., but in the case of “backward”, the effect video that has been performed until now is continuously displayed, so that it was not added This notification is not made in the game that won the extra. Note that the number of back-up games is cumulatively stored in the back-up game count area secured in the RWM as a work area.

  On the ROM of the main controller MC, the gaming state in which the bonus grant is determined by the bonus grant determining means H21 (in many cases RT3 in ART, rarely RT1 or non-RT for which transition to ART has been decided) Alternatively, the privilege stored in the privilege storage means H22 is transmitted via the peripheral control device SC in the gaming state in which the RBB2 is operating based on the winning of the RBB2 having a setting difference, which is another gaming state having a different specification of the bag than the RT2) And the memory privilege alerting | reporting means H23 which makes a player alert | report on the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is also constructed | assembled.

  In the gaming state during RBB1 operation based on winning of RBB1 with no setting difference, a predetermined probability, for example, 13/256 (about 5%) is obtained by adding the internal allocation lottery (two-stage lottery) following each game and internal lottery. ) As a benefit that is advantageous to the player with respect to the performance of the instruction function, it is determined that a predetermined number of games, for example, 10G, will be added to the number of continuing games of the assist time AT during the ART, and the addition is executed in the game It is in the specifications to do. However, in the gaming state during the RBB2 operation based on the winning of the RBB2 having a setting difference, in order to ensure fairness, the performance of the instruction function is determined so as not to determine the addition of an extra benefit that is advantageous to the player.

  For this reason, there is a possibility that the gaming interests during the operation of RBB2 may be lower than that during the operation of RBB1, but in order to improve this, every game during the operation of RBB2 and the internal lottery are performed by the memory privilege notification means H23. When the internal allocation lottery (two-stage lottery) is won (notification is won), a predetermined probability, for example, 26/256 (about 10%) is given, and the number of cumulative added games stored internally (stock) as a back-up portion is predetermined. Dividing into units of the number of games, for example, 10G units, and informing the upper liquid crystal display device 71 of “+ 10G” or “+ 20G” via the peripheral control device SC. Although this notification is actually a back addition for the back ride, the player hits the add-on during the RBB2 operation, and recognizes that the ride was put on in the game. Therefore, it is possible to effectively enhance the gaming interests during the RBB2 operation.

  If the unreported portion of the cumulative added game number stocked as the back overlay becomes 0 by the notification of the back overlay during the RBB2 operation, the overlay notification during the RBB2 operation ends. When there is an unreported part at the time of the final game start when the operation of the RBB 2 is finished, the addition of all the unreported parts is notified in the final game. The process of adding and reflecting the cumulative added number of games stored in the privilege storage means H22 to the number of continuing games of the assist time AT during the actual ART as the performance of the instruction function is not performed at the time of notification during the operation of the RBB2, This is performed during the RT1 to which the RBB2 operation ends after the RBB2 operation ends (preferably after one game or more after the transition to the RT1 has elapsed) in the advantageous section excluding from the winning until the end of the operation of the accessory. If ART ends without RBB2 winning during ART, the number of acquired medals (300, etc.) for the ART ending on the upper liquid crystal display 71 via the peripheral controller SC and the continuation of ART After displaying the result of the number of games (100G, etc.), with the revival effect that the closed door opens once, for example, along with the display of “extension”, etc. Pull back to ART.

It may be displayed as an initial value (number of initial games), or may be displayed as “the number of initial games; “50G + 10G” or the like.

  Further, in the above embodiment, in addition to the RBB2 with a setting difference of 30 (the RBB2 is a single winning combination), the same winning probability (for example, the number of winning values is uniformly 18) regardless of the difference of the settings 1 to 6. Etc.) “RBB2 + common bell (NML13 + NML14)” is newly defined in 籤 number 31, etc., and after the operation of RBB2 triggered by either 籤 number 30 or 31, the transition to RT1 is set. In RT1, which moves in common after the operation of the RBB2 with the difference and after the operation of the RBB2 without the setting difference, as a process to be performed in common, the accumulated number of back-up games stored in the privilege storage means H22 in the RT1 May be added to the number of continuing games of the assist time AT during the actual ART and reflected as the performance of the instruction function.

  Furthermore, after the operation of the RBB 1 with no setting difference of the 籤 number 29 is completed, the transition is made to RT1 which is a common destination after the operation of the RBB 2 with the setting difference of the 籤 number 30 and only one of these is transferred. Alternatively, when one or more games have been digested after the transition to RT1, the number of games placed on the back is added as the performance of the instruction function to the number of continuing games of the assist time AT during the actual ART, and the RBB1 operation The inside may also be configured to notify the user as if it was added using the backside, as in the RBB2 operation.

  Furthermore, the processing for notifying the addition with the back portion added as the back and / or the processing for adding to the number of continuing games of the assist time AT during the actual ART is executed for a part of the back portion, and the rest You may carry over your back on the occasion of execution later. When adding to the number of continuing games of the assist time AT during the actual ART, as a common process, by carrying a part as a back-up amount for the next time, for example, RBB2 with a setting difference is short-term Even if the RBB 2 is operated for the second time without inserting an opportunity such as addition, as in the case where it continues, it is possible to prevent the game being operated from becoming boring.

  In the above embodiment, a predetermined probability, for example, 26/256 (about 10%), is obtained at the time of winning (notification winning) in the internal distribution lottery (two-stage lottery) subsequent to each game during RBB2 operation and internal lottery. Although the information on the back was reported with probability, the specifications of the bag while the RBB2 was operating were replaced with the uniform specifications of the RBB small and medium role ALL (NML 1 to 16), the common bell, watermelon, cherry, etc. It is also possible to divide it into specific winning areas (such as areas where the number of winning values is larger than that during general games) and notify the back of the area when the specific winning area is won.

  In the above embodiment, the RBB 1 having no setting difference may be not mounted. Also, the RBB2, which is composed of the continuous action device related to the first type special object with a setting difference, has the first type special character with the setting difference and the second type special object with the setting difference. It may be replaced with a continuous object operating device.
