Thus, the game machine is characterized by comprising a reflecting portion provided in the shielding portion.

  In the gaming machine configured as described above, light is emitted from the light irradiation unit disposed in the housing unit toward the opening. For this reason, the light irradiated from the light irradiation part cannot be directly applied to the front side of the visual recognition object in the storage part. On the other hand, since the opening / closing means opens and closes the opening by moving the shielding part, the shielding part is arranged on the front side of the object for visual recognition. And the reflection part provided in the shielding part arrange | positioned at the front side of the visual recognition object reflects the light irradiated from the light irradiation part toward the visual recognition object. Therefore, the reflected light can be applied to the front side of the visual recognition object. Thereby, compared with the case where light does not hit the front side of the object for visual recognition, the effect which gives an impact to a player can be performed.

  In the gaming machine according to claim 1, as described in claim 2, the shielding portion includes a first shielding member and a second shielding member, and the opening / closing means includes the first shielding member and the second shielding member. The opening is closed in a state where the shielding members are close to each other, and the opening is opened in a state where the first shielding member and the second shielding member are separated from each other. The reflecting portion includes the first shielding member and the second shielding member. You may make it provide in each of a shielding member.

  In the gaming machine configured as described above, the first shielding member and the second shielding member are separated from each other to open the opening, and light is transmitted from the reflecting portions provided in the first shielding member and the second shielding member, respectively. Can be reflected toward the object for visual recognition.

  Therefore, light can be applied from two different directions toward the front side of the visual recognition object. For this reason, compared with the case where light is irradiated toward the front side of the object for visual recognition from one direction, more surfaces in the front of the object for visual recognition can be brightened.

Further, in the gaming machine according to claim 2, as described in claim 3, the opening / closing means may be capable of independently moving the first shielding member and the second shielding member.
According to the gaming machine configured in this way, for example, it is possible to produce an effect such as moving only the first shielding member or only the second shielding member to open and close a part of the opening. Compared with the case where the second shielding member is moved simultaneously to open and close the opening, more various effects can be performed.

  In this control system, the CPU of the main control board 90 draws a privilege to be given to the player in conjunction with the game, and sends a command corresponding to the lottery result to the various control boards and various devices described above. These various control boards and various devices operate in accordance with this command, variably display special symbols, notify lottery results, and execute games according to the lottery results.

  In the gaming machine 1 configured as described above, the CPU of the main control board 90 is a door that performs special symbol game processing for performing control related to the game based on the variation display of the special symbol and an effect using the effect door 17. The effect process is executed.

  First, the procedure of the special symbol game process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the special symbol game process. The special symbol game process is a process that is repeatedly executed while the CPU of the main control board 90 is activated (powered on).

  When this special symbol game process is executed, the CPU of the main control board 90 first determines whether or not a game ball has won the start winning device 13 in S10. Here, when the game ball has not won (S10: NO), the special symbol game process is temporarily ended. On the other hand, if the game ball has won (S10: YES), a lottery probability (for example, “1/300” set in advance based on the timing at which the game ball has won the start winning device 13 in S10 in S20. ]) To win a jackpot lottery and decide whether to win or lose.

  Further, in S30, it is determined whether or not a big hit is determined in S20. Here, when it is determined that the game is a big win (S30: YES), in S40, a plurality of special symbols are variably displayed on the symbol display device 11 based on the timing at which the game ball is won in the start winning device 13 in S10. After that, the big hit fluctuation pattern to be stopped and displayed with the big hit symbol (for example, 7, 7, 7) is determined.

  In S50, the symbol display device 11 displays a plurality of special symbols with the big hit variation pattern determined in S40, and then stops the display with the big hit symbol. Thereafter, in S60, the big hit game is executed. And when this big hit game is completed, the special symbol game process is once ended.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S30 that the game is lost in S20 (S30: NO), a plurality of special symbols are displayed on the symbol display device 11 based on the timing at which the game ball is won in the start winning device 13 in S70. After the symbols are variably displayed, a losing variation pattern to be stopped and displayed with a losing symbol (for example, 1, 2, 5) is determined.

  In S80, the symbol display device 11 displays a plurality of special symbols in a variably displayed manner using the losing variation pattern determined in S70, and then stops and displays the losing symbols. And when this variable display is complete | finished, special symbol game processing is once complete | finished.

  Next, the procedure of the door effect process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the door effect process. This door effect process is a process that is repeatedly executed while the CPU of the main control board 90 is activated (powered on).

  When this door effect process is executed, the CPU of the main control board 90 first determines in S110 whether or not the symbol display device 11 is performing a special symbol variable display. Here, when the variable display is not performed (S110: NO), the door effect process is temporarily ended. On the other hand, when the variable display is performed (S110: YES), it is determined in S120 whether or not the variable display being performed is a variable display that requires the door effect to be executed. For example, a variable display that develops a reach where the degree of expectation that is a big hit is higher than a set value is set in advance as a variable display that requires the door effect, and it is determined whether or not this setting is made.

  Here, when it is not the variable display which needs to perform a door effect (S120: NO), a door effect process is once complete | finished. On the other hand, when it is the change display which needs to perform a door effect (S120: YES), a door effect is performed according to the change pattern determined by S30.

  Specifically, for example, in the case of a variable display pattern that is a big hit, after the production door right part 30 and the production door left part 40 are rattled one by one, an opening is formed in the production door right part 30 and the production door left part 40. The drive of the effect motors 51 and 61 is controlled so as to open 15a and light is emitted from the light source 18, or the effect door right part 30 and the effect door left part 40 according to the sound of “3, 3 and 7”. The opening of the stage motors 51 and 61 is controlled so that the opening part 15a is opened in the stage door right part 30 and stage door left part 40 after the opening part 15a is opened one by one and light is emitted from the light source 18.
