Description

  The present invention relates to a ball-type game machine such as a pachinko machine or an arrangement ball machine that plays a game when a game ball flows down in a game area.

  Conventionally, as this type of gaming machine, a game ball that is placed in the center of the game board and launched by so-called left-handed strike can be entered and a fixed start opening with a constant opening state and an area on the right side of the game board It is equipped with two start ports, with open and closed start ports fitted with normally variable prize winning devices (so-called electric tulips) that can be inserted and opened and opened by so-called right-handed game balls. There has been proposed a game ball that can hold a maximum of eight game balls at the start opening with an upper limit of four (for example, see Patent Document 1). In this gaming machine, each start opening and nail should be placed so that almost no game ball enters the open / close starter when hitting left, and almost no game ball enters the fixed starter when hitting right. Is arranged. For this reason, in a normal state where the normally variable winning device is hardly opened, the player is left-handed aiming for a fixed starting port, and in a special state that increases the chance of opening the normally variable winning device, the player has an openable starting port. It can be said that it is designed to aim right.

JP 2011-41854 A

  In the above-mentioned gaming machine, when it hits left, it hardly enters the opening / closing starter, and when it hits right, it hardly enters the fixed starter. The entry is only put on hold, and in the special state, only four entrances to the open / close starter are put on hold. That is, a maximum of 8 can be held, but if the player has fixed the way to hit, in fact, only the upper limit of 4 to each starting port is held. Become. In order to solve this problem, by adding another fixed start port to the right region of the game board, a fixed start port is arranged in the left region and a fixed start port in the right region. In addition, there was a gaming machine in which an open / close-type start port was arranged and right-handed during a special state, thereby holding eight holds. In this way, when two starting holes are provided in the right area (right-handed area), the player always plays right-handed regardless of the gaming state (normal state, special state). It is necessary to prevent the situation. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the nail so that the entrance rate of the fixed start port provided in the right region is lower than the entrance rate of the fixed start port provided in the left region.

  However, such a nail adjustment requires skilled techniques, and it is very difficult to adjust to a desired entrance rate. If the nail adjustment is wrong, a game shop or a player is disadvantageous. There is a risk of suffering. In fact, failure to adjust the nail makes it difficult to enter the fixed starter in the area on the right side, losing the interest of the player in a special state, and conversely The entrance rate of the fixed start opening provided in this area is higher than the entrance rate of the fixed start opening provided in the left area, and the player always executes a right-handed game. In some cases, the player was given more profit than the game store had calculated.

  In this way, providing fixed start ports in the left and right areas increases troublesome and sophisticated work such as nail adjustment, so in recent gaming machines, fixed start ports are arranged in the left area. In the right area, a simple panel configuration with an openable starter opening has been the mainstream.

  The gaming machine of the present invention has a game as designed without requiring complicated nail adjustment or the like while giving more hold when a game is performed in which a game ball is launched aiming at an opening-and-closing start port. The main purpose is to advance.

In the first gaming state, when the second game progression means is determined to be successful, the first gaming state has a higher probability than the case where the second game progression means is determined to be successful in the second game state. The gist is to set.

In addition, the gaming machine of the reference invention disclosed for reference in this specification is:
A gaming machine that plays a game by a game ball flowing down in a game area,
A launcher that launches a game ball into the game area in response to a player's operation;
A first start port through which a game ball flowing down the first area of the game area can enter;
A second starting port configured to be able to switch between a state where it is easy to receive a game ball and a state where it is difficult to receive, and a game ball flowing down a second region different from the first region among the game regions,

It is a summary to provide.

The gaming machine according to the reference invention is configured to be able to switch between a first start port into which a game ball flowing down the first area of the game area can enter, and a state where the game ball can be easily received and a state where it is difficult to receive the game ball. A second start port into which a game ball flowing down a second region different from the region can enter and a third start port into which a game ball flowing down the second region can enter. In a normal state in which the second start port is unlikely to accept a game ball, the game based on the game ball entering the first start port or the second start port proceeds in a predetermined manner, and the third start The game based on the entrance of the game ball into the mouth proceeds in a manner that is more disadvantageous to the player than the predetermined manner (that is, in the normal state, the third starting opening is more disadvantageous than the first and second starting openings). Is). Also, the game ball entering the first start port or the second start port is stored as the first hold (the first symbol is variably displayed), and the game ball entering the third start port is stored in the second hold. (The second symbol is displayed in a variable manner) That is, the lottery based on the entrance to the first start port and the second start port and the lottery based on the entrance to the third start port are different lotteries, and the lottery can be performed under different conditions. As a result, when the player launches a game ball in the second area in a special state, in addition to the first hold by entering the second start port, the second hold by entering the third start port Can also be memorized. For this reason, when the game which launches a game ball aiming at a 2nd start opening is performed compared with what does not have the 3rd start opening which can enter the game ball which flows down the 2nd field, it is more You can have a hold of On the other hand, since there are two start ports in the second area, the third start port and the variable second start port, the game can be played from the normal state (even if the second start port is disadvantageous). It is also conceivable that the person operates the launching device aiming at the second region. However, in the normal state, the game mode based on the ball entering the third start port is set to be more disadvantageous to the player than the game based on the ball entering the first start port. It is possible to prevent the player from aiming at the second region (the player will operate the launching device aiming at the first region). For this reason, a strict nail adjustment that slightly adjusts the entrance rate of the first start port and the third start port (the entrance rate of the third start port is lower than the entrance rate of the first start port, In addition, there is no need for adjustment to prevent the entrance rate of the third starting port from becoming too low. For these reasons, when a game is launched in which a game ball is launched aiming at the second openable opening, a game as designed without requiring complicated nail adjustment or the like while giving more hold. Can be performed by the player.

  Here, “a start opening configured to be able to switch between a state where it is easy to accept a game ball and a state where it is difficult to receive” means a start opening in which an opening / closing member such as an opening / closing blade or an opening / closing plate is provided at the entrance of the game ball. The opening / closing operation of the opening / closing member (opening operation or closing operation) changes the entrance rate of the game ball to the starting port. In addition, the “unreceptable state” of the game ball may be a state where the game ball cannot enter, or a state where the game ball can be received but is easy to receive the game ball or compared to the first start port. May be in a difficult state. The “special state in which the second start port is likely to easily receive a game ball” means, for example, that the above-described opening / closing member has a high probability or frequency of opening, an opening time is long, or an opening / closing member. The lottery time of the lottery for releasing the time becomes shorter (you may combine all or a plurality of these), the state that makes it easier to enter the second starting port compared to the normal state, 2 A state in which the entrance to the starting port (the entrance area) is wider than the normal state. As described above, in the special state, the second start port is an advantageous mode for the player as compared with the normal state. In addition, examples of the “first start port and the third start port” include a entrance where the size of the entrance (entrance area) of the game ball does not change depending on the game state (“fixed entrance”). Also called). The “first area” and the “second area” include a left (one) area and a right (other) area of the game areas formed on the game board, and a game ball depending on the first launch strength. The area where the game ball reaches due to the second launch intensity different from the reach area and the first launch intensity (stronger than the first launch intensity) or a predetermined game component (display device, center accessory, etc.) The left side (one side) and the right side (the other side) area etc. are illustrated.

In the gaming machine of such a reference invention, the first game progression means and the second game progression means determine whether or not they are hit based on the entry of a game ball. The game state setting means is a means capable of setting the special state or the normal state after execution of the winning game, and the second game progress in the normal state. When the means is determined to be a win, the game state setting means sets the special state with a lower probability than the case where the first game progression means is determined to be a hit in the normal state, or It is also possible to reduce the profit given by the game.

  As a result, when the game is executed by launching into the second area in the normal state, the launched game ball enters the third starting port. For this reason, even if it is a winning game, there is a higher possibility that it will be a disadvantageous winning game compared to the lottery based on the first starting port, or a winning game compared to the lottery based on the first starting port. The game state after the end is likely to be disadvantageous. That is, since the lottery based on the third start port is configured to set at least one disadvantageous condition as compared with the lottery based on the first start port, both the first region and the second region are set. Even in the case where a fixed start port is arranged in the area, the player will avoid launching a game ball in the second area in the normal state.

  Here, “special state is set with a low probability” means, for example, that when the first game progression means determines that it is a win, the special state is set with a predetermined probability (80%) after the hit game is over (20% is normally set) State), when the second game progression means determines that it is a win, it can be exemplified that a special state (90% is a normal state) with a probability (10%) lower than a predetermined probability after the hit game ends. In addition, the second game progression means includes a special state with a probability of 0% as a probability lower than the predetermined probability. In addition, “reducing the profit given by the winning game” means that, for example, in the winning game by the first game progression means, 80% per 15 rounds (2000 balls), 5 balls (500 winning balls) Is 20%, and in the hit game by the second game progression means, 15 rounds (2000 prize balls) are 60%, 5 rounds (500 prize balls) are 40% or (per game ratio is In the winning game by the first game progression means, the per 15 rounds (2000 prize balls) is 100%, and in the winning game by the second game progression means, 5 rounds (500 prize balls) is 100%. (There are different types of games per game).

In the gaming machine of the reference invention of this aspect, when the second game progression means is determined to be successful in the special state, the game is more effective than the case where the second game progression means is determined to be successful in the normal state. The state setting means sets the special state with a high probability, or makes the profit given by the winning game larger than the case where the second game progress is determined to be winning in the normal state, or In the special state, the game may proceed in the same manner as when the first game progression means determines that the game is successful.

  Thereby, in the special state where the second starting port is advantageous, the lottery based on the ball entering the third starting port is advantageous to the player compared to the normal state. There is no penalty for launching game balls into the second area. Further, in a game (special state) in which a game ball is launched into the second area, it is possible to acquire a large number of holds (first hold and second hold), and the fun of the game can be further enhanced.

Furthermore, in the gaming machine according to the reference invention, whether or not the second starting port can easily accept the game ball based on the passage gate through which the game ball can pass and the passage of the game ball through the passage gate. Second opening opening control means for performing an open lottery, and the gaming state setting means switches the winning probability of the open lottery from the normal probability to the normal probability by switching from the normal state to the special state. The lottery time until the result of the open lottery is displayed is set to a high probability or a shortened lottery time shorter than the normal lottery time from the normal lottery time, or the second starting port can easily accept the game ball It can also be characterized in that it is means for executing at least one of the normal opening time and the extended opening time longer than the normal opening time.

  Thus, by setting the state of the second start port in the special state to be an advantageous state for the player, it is possible to prompt the player to launch the game ball into the second area. Then, by releasing the disadvantageous state of the third start port together with the start of the special state, it is possible for the player to be advantageous in launching the game ball to the second area. Here, since the gaming state setting means “execute at least one of them”, in the special state, one of these may be executed, or two may be executed, Three (all) may be executed. In addition, in the special state, in addition to these, another advantageous state may be added (the number of times that the special state makes it easier to accept the game ball than the normal state (the number of times of opening / closing for one hit result) ), Etc.).

  According to the gaming machine of the present invention, when a game in which a game ball is launched aiming at an opening-and-closing type starting port is performed, as much as possible, as much as possible, with no need for complicated nail adjustment or the like. The game can be advanced.

  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described using examples. In the following, an example in which the present invention is applied to a pachinko machine of a type (so-called seven machine type) in which a jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed in response to the end of the special symbol variation display, and the jackpot game is triggered by this will be described. To do. In the following description, a game ball entering (accepting) a variety of winning holes provided on the game board may be referred to as “winning” or “entering”. Of these, “winning” means that a game ball enters the winning entrance, which is the premise for paying out the winning ball. In terms of indicating that a gaming ball enters (accepts) the winning entrance, Substantially synonymous with “sphere”.

  FIG. 1 is an external perspective view showing the appearance of a pachinko machine 10 (game machine) according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the outline of the configuration of a game board 30 of the pachinko machine 10. 3 is a block diagram showing an outline of the configuration of the control circuit of the pachinko machine 10.

[Overall configuration of pachinko machine 10]
As shown in FIG. 1, the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment has a game board 30 (see FIG. 2) in which the board surface is arranged so as to be visible through a glass plate 12 (transparent plate) fitted in the front frame 11, An upper tray 14 and a lower tray 16 that store game balls, and a launching handle 18 for launching the game balls stored in the upper tray 14 to the game board 30 are provided.

  The front frame 11 is fitted into the main body frame 21 and can be rotated with respect to the main body frame 21 with the left side as a rotation axis. The main body frame 21 is fitted into the outer frame 22 so that it can be rotated with respect to the outer frame 22 with the left side as a rotation axis. The front frame 11 and the main body frame 21 are configured as a substantially rectangular plastic frame. The outer frame 22 is configured as a substantially rectangular wooden frame, and is fixed to the island frame of the island facility of the pachinko hall.

  Speakers 28a and 28b are provided on the upper left and upper right of the front frame 11 for making various sound effects and notifying the player of the game state as the game progresses. The part is provided with a locking device 29 for locking the front frame 11 to the main body frame 21. In addition, a prepaid card type ball lending device (CR unit) (not shown) is provided on the left side of the front frame 11.

  The upper tray 14 is inserted into the CR unit on the upper surface portion thereof, and a ball lending button 24a for instructing lending of game balls within the range of the value balance (valuable balance) of the card inserted into the CR unit. A return button 24b for instructing the return of the card is provided.

  The launch handle 18 is provided at the lower right portion of the front frame 11, and includes a touch sensor 18a (see FIG. 3) that detects that the player is touching the handle and a launch stop that temporarily stops launch of the game ball. A switch 18b (see FIG. 3) is provided. A launching device (not shown) for launching game balls stored in the upper tray 14 one by one is connected to the rotation shaft of the launching handle 18, and the launching device is provided when the launching handle 18 is rotated. The firing motor 19 (see FIG. 3) rotates, and accordingly, a game ball is launched with a striking force having a strength corresponding to the operation amount of the firing handle 18.

[Composition of game board 30]
As shown in FIG. 2, the game board 30 has a game area 31 surrounded by an outer rail 31a and an inner rail 31b. This game board 30 is arranged at the right part of the game area 31 and is provided with a normal symbol operating gate 32 having a gate switch 32a (see FIG. 3) for detecting the passage of a game ball, and is arranged at the center part of the game area 31 and surroundings thereof. An effect display device 34 surrounded by the center accessory 33, and a first start port 36 having a first start port switch 36a (see FIG. 3) which is arranged below the center accessory 33 and detects a winning of a game ball; A second start opening 37 having a second start opening switch 37a (see FIG. 3) disposed on the right side of the center accessory 33 and below the gate switch 32a for detecting a winning of a game ball; A third tulip switch 39a (see FIG. 3), which is disposed on the lower right side of the center accessory 33 and detects a winning of a game ball. Start 9, a symbol display device 40 disposed at the lower right portion of the game area 31, and a big winning opening switch 44 a (see FIG. 3) disposed at the lower right portion of the game area 31 so as to be openable and closable to detect winning of a game ball. A large winning opening 44 and an out opening 48 for collecting game balls that have not entered any winning opening are provided. In addition to this, the game board 30 is provided with a general winning opening (not shown) and a number of nails (not shown) for guiding and playing game balls. The nail is arranged so that the game ball flowing down the region on the right side of the game region 31 hardly enters the first start port 36. For this reason, game balls that mainly flow down the left area of the game area 31 (the left area of the center accessory 33) enter the first start opening 36, and the second start opening 37 and the third start opening 36 In 39, a game ball flowing down the area on the right side of the game area 31 (the area on the right side of the center accessory 33) enters. In other words, when the player plays with a launch strength (first launch strength) that allows the launched game ball to flow down the left region of the center accessory 33, the game ball enters the first start port 36. It will flow down the sphere possible area. Further, when the player plays with a launch strength (second launch strength) to the extent that the launched game ball flows down the area on the right side of the center accessory 33, that is, the second stronger than the first launch strength. When a game is played with a launch intensity of 1, the game ball will flow down the area where it can enter the second start port 37 or the third start port 39. Note that the game ball flowing down the area on the right side of the game area 31 has a configuration (gauge configuration) that is difficult to enter the first starting port 36 by a nail or the like (not shown). Alternatively, a configuration may be adopted in which a small number of balls are entered but are difficult to enter. That is, the rate of entering the first start port 36 is higher when flowing down the left area of the gaming area 31 than flowing down the right area of the gaming area 31.

  The ordinary electric accessory 38 includes a pair of left and right wing pieces 38a provided at the second starting port 37, and an ordinary electric agent solenoid 38b (see FIG. 3) that operates the wing pieces 38a. When the pair of wing pieces 38a are close to each other, the ordinary electric accessory 38 makes it impossible to receive the game ball into the second start opening 37, and when the pair of wing pieces 38a are open on both the left and right sides, 2 It is configured to allow a game ball to be received at the start opening 37. In addition, since an ordinary electric accessory is not attached to the first starting port 36 or the third starting port 39, the opening state (opening width of the entrance) is configured to be constant (depending on the gaming state). The opening width does not change). In addition, the second start opening 37 where the game balls can be entered by the ordinary electric accessory 38 is more likely to win the game balls than the first start opening 36 and the third start opening 39. . In the above description, the normal electric accessory 38 has made it impossible to accept the game ball when the pair of wing pieces 38a are close to each other, but it is not completely impossible to accept the game ball. The possibility may be low (the possibility of accepting a game ball is lower than that of the first start port 36 and the third start port 39). In addition, the difficulty level (entrance rate) of entering the second starting port 37 is changed by opening and closing the pair of blade pieces 38a for the ordinary electric accessory 38 (the state that the game ball is easily received and the state where it is received) However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the opening width of the second start port may be changed according to other modes such as turning or retracting the opening / closing plate. In addition, although the opening width does not change, the difficulty of entering (the entrance rate) may be changed by operating a guide member (opening / closing member) that guides entrance into the second starting port 37. In addition, a state where it is easy to accept a game ball can be referred to as an “open state”, and a state where it is difficult to receive a game ball can be referred to as a “closed state (non-open state)”.

  The big winning opening 44 is normally closed by the opening / closing member so as not to accept a game ball. In the big hit game (special game), the opening / closing member is operated by the big winning opening solenoid 44b (see FIG. 3). Thus, it is driven so as to be in an open state in which it is easy to accept a game ball. A large winning opening switch 44a (see FIG. 3) for detecting winning of a game ball and counting the number of winning is attached to the large winning opening 44. In the present embodiment, as a process for the big hit game, one big round is taken until a predetermined time (for example, 25 seconds) elapses before the big winning opening switch 44a counts ten game balls or counts ten. The winning opening 44 is opened, and the opening operation of the large winning opening 44 is repeated until the prescribed round. In addition, between each round, the special winning opening 44 is closed for a predetermined time (for example, 2 seconds).

  As illustrated in the configuration diagram of FIG. 4, the symbol display device 40 includes a normal symbol display device 41 that can display and stop displaying a normal symbol, and a special symbol display device that can display and stop displaying a special symbol. 42, and a round display device 43 that displays a symbol indicating the specified number of rounds (maximum number of rounds) of the jackpot game. The normal symbol display device 41 includes a left normal symbol display unit 41a and a right normal symbol display unit 41b configured using light emitting diodes (LEDs). In FIG. 5, an example of the display mode of the normal symbol display device 41 is shown. As shown in FIG. 5, the normal symbol display device 41 has a display mode in which both the left normal symbol display unit 41a and the right normal symbol display unit 41b are turned off (see the first row from the top in FIG. 5), and the left normal symbol display unit 41b. A display mode in which the display unit 41a is turned on and the right normal symbol display unit 41b is turned off (see the second row from the top in FIG. 5), and a display mode in which the left normal symbol display unit 41a is turned off and the right normal symbol display unit 41b is turned on. (Refer to the third row from the top in FIG. 5) and four display modes in which both the left normal symbol display portion 41a and the right normal symbol display portion 41b are lit (see the fourth row from the top in FIG. 5). There is. When the normal symbol display device 41 detects that the game ball passes through the normal symbol operation gate 32, the normal symbol display device 41 performs variable display by sequentially switching the four display modes. The display is stopped in one of the display modes. At this time, when the display mode stopped and displayed is a specific display mode (for example, the display mode shown in the fourth row from the top in FIG. 5), the ordinary electric accessory 38 is held for a certain time (for example, 0. 0). For 5 seconds). When the game ball passes through the normal symbol operation gate 32 during the normal symbol fluctuation display, the normal symbol fluctuation display is held up to four times, and when the current fluctuation display ends, it is held. The variable display is digested sequentially.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the special symbol display device 42 includes a first special symbol display unit 42 a and a second special symbol display unit 42 b configured using a seven-segment display. A plurality of display modes (up to 128) are expressed by combinations with light extinction. The special symbol display device 42 performs variable display by sequentially switching the display state when any winning of the first start port 36, the second start port 37, or the third start port 39 is detected. When the execution time elapses, the display is stopped in one of the display modes that can be expressed. At this time, when the stop-displayed display mode is a specific display mode, the big winning opening 44 is opened for a predetermined time (for example, 25 seconds) as a big hit. In the embodiment, the first special symbol display unit 42a is a display unit for displaying the first starting port winning or the second starting port winning that is variably displayed when a game ball is won in the first starting port 36 or the second starting port 37. The second special symbol display unit 42b is a third start port winning display unit that variably displays when a game ball wins the third start port 39. That is, when the ball enters the first start port 36 or the second start port 37, the first special symbol is displayed in a variable manner. When the ball enters the third start port 39, the second special symbol is displayed as a variable symbol. Will be. In the following, in particular, the special symbol displayed on the first special symbol display unit 42a for winning the first starting port or winning the second starting port is also referred to as a first special symbol (or the first symbol). The special symbol displayed on the second special symbol display unit 42b for winning is also referred to as a second special symbol (or second symbol). In addition, a game that proceeds with the first special symbol corresponds to the first game of the present invention, and a game that proceeds with the second special symbol corresponds to the second game of the present invention. Further, the round display device 43 displays the specified number of rounds of the jackpot game by lighting up the 7-segment display in the form of arithmetic numbers at the start of the jackpot game. When the game ball wins any of the first start port 36, the second start port 37, or the third start port 39 during the special symbol variation display, the corresponding special symbol variation display is displayed at a maximum of four. When the current variation display is finished, the variation display held is sequentially digested. Further, as will be described later, the number of holdings of the variable display of the first special symbol is displayed by the first holding symbol 35a, and the number of holdings of the variable display of the second special symbol is displayed by the second holding symbol 35b.

  The effect display device 34 is configured as a display device such as a liquid crystal display. As shown in the screen configuration illustrated in FIG. 6, the display area (on the display screen) of the effect display device 34 includes the left, middle, and right three elements arranged side by side and configured by characters, numbers, and the like. Production symbols (pseudo special symbols) 34L, 34M, 34R and a background symbol (not shown) are displayed. The effect symbols 34L, 34M, and 34R are displayed when the game ball wins the first start port 36, when the game ball wins the second start port 37, or when the game ball wins the third start port 39. The display is variable. In other words, the effect symbols 34L, 34M, and 34R perform the variable display and stop display in conjunction with the variable display and stop display of the first special symbol and the second special symbol. When the variation display is started, the effect symbols 34L, 34M, and 34R are variably displayed so as to scroll at high speed from the top to the bottom, and the execution time of the variation display (predetermined variation display time) elapses. Then stop display. At this time, when the three effect symbols 34L, 34M, and 34R become symbols that do not coincide with each other (the symbols are different from each other), it is simply removed without reach (for example, “358”). Further, when the left effect symbol 34L and the right effect symbol 34R coincide with each other and the middle effect symbol 34M does not coincide with the left and right effect symbols 34L and 34R, the reach effect is lost (for example, “353”). Furthermore, when all of the three effect symbols 34L, 34M, and 34R match, it is a big hit (for example, “777”). The result of the success / failure of the effect symbol displayed on the effect display device 34 is basically the success / failure of the special symbol (first special symbol, second special symbol) displayed by the special symbol display device 42 described above. Matches the result of.

  In the present embodiment, the first reserved symbol 35 a and the second reserved symbol 35 b are also displayed in the display screen of the effect display device 34. The first reserved symbols 35a are displayed one by one in order from the left each time a game ball wins at the first starting port 36 or the second starting port 37 during the change display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. Each time the variable display of one special symbol is started, the symbols are erased in the order of the winning prize (the symbols are erased sequentially from the reserved symbols corresponding to the old reserved information). The second reserved symbol 35b is displayed one by one in order from the left side every time a game ball wins at the third starting port 39 during the variation display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol, and the variation display of the second special symbol Each time is started, it is erased in the order of the winning award (it is erased in order from the holding symbols corresponding to the old holding information).

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment configured as described above, the first start port 36 is arranged below the center accessory 33, and the player can play the game ball in the game area 31 during a normal game that is not a big hit game. By rotating the firing handle 18 so as to flow down to the left (so-called left-handed), the game ball can be won at the first start port 36. Further, the second start opening 37 is arranged on the right side of the center accessory 33, and the player rotates the firing handle 18 to the right as much as possible when the time is short (the special symbol and the normal symbol change shortening state). The game ball can be awarded to the second start opening 37 by hitting the game ball right (to the right area of the center accessory 33). Further, since the third start port 39 is disposed in the right side area of the game area 31 (lower right side of the center accessory 33) and is located below the second start port 37, the player must make a right stroke. Thus, the game ball can be won in the third starting port 39. The big winning opening 44 is arranged in the lower right part of the game area 31. When the big hit game is started, the player hits the right to make the game ball flow down to the right side of the game area 31. A winning opening 44 can be awarded. Here, the state of right-handed hitting was set to be a short time, but during the short time, not only the fluctuation time of the special symbol and the normal symbol was shortened (variation time reduction state), but when the normal symbol was hit, (2) The time at which the start port 37 (ordinary electric accessory 38) is in the open state is extended (open extended state), and the probability that the normal symbol is determined to be hit is increased (normal high probability state). Therefore, the time shortage is also referred to as the open extension or the usual high accuracy.

[Configuration of control circuit]
Next, the configuration of the control circuit of the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment will be described with reference mainly to FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the control circuit of the pachinko machine 10 includes a main control board 70 that controls the basic progress of the game, a payout control board 80 that controls the payout of prize balls and ball rentals, The control board includes a sub-control board 90 that controls the overall control of various effects performed along with the progress, and a control board such as a launch control board 100 that controls the game ball. These control boards include a CPU that executes various logical operations and calculation operations, a ROM that stores various programs and data executed by the CPU, a RAM that temporarily stores data when the programs are executed, peripheral devices, Peripheral device interface (PIO) for exchanging data between them, an oscillator that outputs a clock for the CPU to perform operations, a watchdog timer for monitoring CPU runaway, and a CTC (counter that periodically generates interrupt signals) Various peripheral LSIs such as a timer circuit are connected to each other by a bus. In FIG. 3, only the CPU 70 a, ROM 70 b, and RAM 70 c of the main control board 70 among the various devices mounted on each control board are shown, and the other parts are not shown. Here, FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing an outline of the configuration of the sub-control board 90 forming a part of the control circuit.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the main control board 70, as shown in FIG. 3, shows a passing signal from the gate switch 32a, a winning signal from the first start port switch 36a, and a signal necessary for controlling the basic progress of the game. A winning signal from the 2 starting port switch 37a, a winning signal from the third starting port switch 39a, a winning signal from the large winning port switch 44a, and the like are input via the relay terminal plate 72. From the main control board 70, a relay terminal board receives a control signal to the symbol display board 40a that controls display of the symbol display device 40, a drive signal to the ordinary electric accessory solenoid 38b, a drive signal to the big prize opening solenoid 44b, and the like. 72 is output. The main control board 70 communicates with the payout control board 80, the sub control board 90, and the launch control board 100 (communication via the payout control board 80), and various command signals (commands, drive signals, etc.) and data. We are exchanging.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the payout control board 80 directly receives a detection signal from a frame opening switch 81 for detecting the opening of the front frame 11 as a signal necessary for performing control related to payout of award balls and ball rentals. The operation signals from the ball lending button 24a and the return button 24b are input via the ball lending display board 82 and the relay terminal board 83, and are received from the pre-payout switch 84 and the post-payout switch 85 for detecting the payout of the prize ball. A detection signal is input via the relay terminal board 87. From the payout control board 80, a drive signal to the payout motor 86 for paying out the prize balls is output via the relay terminal plate 87. The payout control board 80 communicates with the main control board 70 and the launch control board 100, and exchanges various command signals and data.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the sub control board 90 includes a CPU 90a, a ROM 90b, a RAM 90c, and the like, receives various command signals from the main control board 70, and performs a game effect according to the commands. The sub control board 90 drives an effect display control board 91 that controls the effect display device 34, an amplifier board 92 that drives the various speakers 28a and 28b, various LED lamps 93a, and operates a movable decorative member. A decoration drive board 93 for driving the decoration motor 93b, an effect button board 94 for inputting an operation signal from the effect button 26, and the like are connected.

  The firing control board 100 detects a detection signal from the touch sensor 18a, an operation signal from the firing stop switch 18b, a detection signal from the lower tray full switch 102 that detects that the game ball is full in the lower tray 16 and the like. And a pulse signal for driving is output to the firing motor 19. The launch control board 100 drives the launch motor 19 to launch a game ball when the launch handle 18 is rotated, the touch sensor 18a is on, the launch stop switch 18b is off, and the lower tray full switch 102 is off. When either the touch sensor 18a is turned off, the firing stop switch 18b is turned on, or the lower tray full tank switch 102 is turned on, the driving of the firing motor 19 is stopped and the launch of the game ball is stopped. Further, the launch control board 100 communicates with the main control board 70 via the payout control board 80, and data regarding the operation state of the launch handle 18 such as a detection signal from the touch sensor 18 a is sent via the payout control board 80. It is transmitted to the main control board 70.

[Main control processing]
Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment thus configured will be described. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an example of main control processing executed by the CPU 70a of the main control board 70. This process is executed when the power of the pachinko machine 10 is turned on. The main control process executes a power-on process required for power-on such as an initialization process (step S100), a game start process (step S200), a normal symbol game process (step S300), and a normal symbol game This is performed by repeatedly executing the process (step S400), the special symbol game process (step S500), and the big hit game process (step S600). In the present embodiment, the time required for the processes in steps S200 to S600 is about 4 msec, and therefore these processes are repeatedly executed at intervals of about 4 msec. The main control board 70 advances the entire game of the pachinko machine 10 by transmitting various commands to the control board in charge and executing the processes according to the commands in accordance with the execution of these processes.

[Game start processing]
In the game start process of step S200, the CPU 70a of the main control board 70 first starts various sensors (gate switch 32a, first start port switch 36a, second start port switch 37a, third start port switch 39a, big prize port switch. 44a, etc.) and stored in a predetermined state storage area of the RAM 70c, and various random values (such as jackpot determination random numbers, jackpot symbol determination random numbers, reach random numbers, fluctuation pattern determination random numbers, etc. described later) are stored. Or update. Subsequently, it is determined whether or not a game ball is detected by a switch relating to winning of the game ball (first start port switch 36a, second start port switch 37a, third start port switch 39a, big winning port switch 44a, etc.). If it is determined that the prize ball has been detected, the prize ball to be paid out is calculated and saved as prize ball information in a predetermined prize ball information storage area of the RAM 70c. When the prize ball information is not 0, a prize ball designation command (prize ball information) ) Is sent to the payout control board 80, and the game start process is terminated. When the payout control board 80 receives the prize ball designation command, the payout motor 86 is driven and controlled to pay out the game balls one by one, and the game balls paid out by the pre-payout switch 84 and the post-payout switch 85 are detected each time. Then, a prize ball payout process for decrementing the prize ball information (the number of unpaid game balls) by 1 is executed. This award ball payout process is repeatedly executed until the award ball information reaches a value of 0. However, when a winning game ball is detected and a new award ball designation command is received from the main control board 70, the award ball information is also displayed. The process is repeated until the value becomes zero. When the game start process ends, the process returns to the main control process and proceeds to the normal symbol game process of the next step S300.

[Normal design game processing]
In the normal symbol game process of step S300, the CPU 70a of the main control board 70 first determines whether or not the normal symbol hold is not 0, that is, if the value is 1 or more. Decrement by 1 to determine whether or not a normal symbol is appropriate, and determine a normal symbol (see FIG. 5) to be stopped and displayed based on the determination result. The normal symbol success / failure determination is performed using a normal symbol per symbol determination table for low probability when the time probability is not short (for example, about 0.8%), and when the time is short, the probability is high ( For example, about 99.2%) is performed using a normal symbol determination table for high probability. Further, when the result of the determination is successful, the symbol is determined as a symbol for stopping and displaying the winning symbol, and when the result of determining whether or not the result is incorrect, the symbol is determined as a symbol for stopping and displaying any of the symbols that are lost. Then, the normal symbol fluctuation display time is set to start the normal symbol fluctuation display, and waits until the fluctuation display time elapses. The variable display time is set to a long time (for example, 30 seconds) when not in the short time state, and is shortened to a short time (for example, 1 second) when in the short time state. When the variable display time elapses, the normal symbol is stopped and displayed with the determined symbol, and when the stopped and displayed symbol is the winning symbol, the opening time of the ordinary electric accessory 38 is set, and the ordinary electric accessory 38 is opened. The normal symbol game process is temporarily terminated, and when the stopped and displayed symbol is out of the symbol, the normal symbol game process is terminated without doing anything. The opening time of the ordinary electric accessory 38 is set to a short time (for example, 0.5 seconds) when not in the short time state, and is extended to a long time (for example, 5 seconds) when in the short time state. Further, as described above, the ordinary electric accessory 38 is opened by controlling the drive of the ordinary electric accessory solenoid 38b to open the pair of wing pieces 38a to the left and right. When the normal symbol game process ends, the process returns to the main control process and proceeds to the normal symbol per game process of the next step S400. As described above, in the short-time state, the fluctuation time shortening function for shortening the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is operated, the probability fluctuation function for improving the winning probability of the normal symbol is operated, and the second start port 37 (normal electric drive) The opening extension function for extending the opening time of the accessory 38) is activated. For this reason, the short time state of the present embodiment is also an open extension function operating state and a probability variation function operating state.

[Game processing per normal symbol]
In the normal symbol game process of step S400, the CPU 70a of the main control board 70 sets the elapsed time (open elapsed time) after the normal electric accessory 38 starts to open to the set time set in the normal symbol game process. It is determined whether or not a predetermined number (for example, 8) of game balls has won the second start opening 37. If it is determined that the elapsed time has not reached the set time and a specified number of game balls have not won the second start opening 37, the normal electric game 38 is temporarily released while the normal electric accessory 38 is kept open. finish. On the other hand, if it is determined that the elapsed elapsed time has reached the set time, or if it is determined that the prescribed number of game balls have already won the second start opening 37 even before the elapsed elapsed time has reached the set time. Then, the driving of the ordinary electric accessory 38 is stopped, and the game process per ordinary symbol is finished. When the game process per normal symbol is finished, the process returns to the main control process and proceeds to the special symbol game process in the next step S500.

[Special design game processing]
The special symbol game process of step S500 is executed according to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. When the special symbol game process is executed, the CPU 70a of the main control board 70 first inputs a detection signal from the first start port switch 36a or the second start port switch 37a to input the first start port 36 or the second start port 36a. It is determined whether or not a game ball is won in the mouth 37 (step S502). If it is determined that a game ball has won the first start port 36 or the second start port 37, it is determined whether or not the current number of reserved special first symbols is less than the upper limit (value 4 in this embodiment). Determination is made (step S504). When it is determined that the number of reserved special symbols is less than the upper limit value, the number of reserved special symbols is incremented by 1 (step S506), and a random number for determination is acquired to make a predetermined determination in the RAM 70c. This is stored in the random number storage area for use (step S508). In addition, when the number of holdings of the first special symbol is incremented in step S506, a command for displaying the number of holdings on the first holding symbol 35a of the effect display device 34 (first special symbol holding number command) is sub-controlled. Transmit to the substrate 90. Here, as the determination random number acquired in step S508, the big hit determination random number used in the big hit determination performed by winning the game ball to the first start port 36 or the second start port 37, or the big hit determination If the result is a big hit, the big hit symbol determination random number for determining the big hit symbol to be stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display unit 42a, the result of the big hit determination is out of place, and the effect symbol is changed on the display screen of the effect display device 34 For example, a reach random number for determining whether or not to perform reach display is used. If it is determined in step S502 that a game ball has not won the first start port 36 or the second start port 37, or if it is determined in step S504 that the number of first special symbols has reached the upper limit, The process of steps S506 and S508 is skipped and the process proceeds to the next process.

  Subsequently, a detection signal from the third starting port switch 39a is input to determine whether or not a game ball has won the third starting port 39 (step S510). If it is determined that a game ball has won the third starting port 39, it is determined whether or not the current number of reserved second special symbols is less than the upper limit value (value 4 in this embodiment) (step S512). . When it is determined that the number of reserved special symbols is less than the upper limit value, the number of reserved special symbols is incremented by 1 (step S514), and a random number for determination is acquired to make a predetermined determination in the RAM 70c. It stores in the random number storage area for use (step S516). In addition, when the number of holdings of the second special symbol is incremented in step S514, a command for displaying the number of holdings on the second holding symbol 35b of the effect display device 34 (second special symbol holding number command) is sub-controlled. Transmit to the substrate 90. Here, as the determination random number acquired in step S516, when the big hit determination random number used in the big hit determination performed by winning the game ball to the third starting port 39 or the result of the big hit determination is a big hit The special display random number for determining the jackpot symbol to be stopped and displayed on the second special symbol display section 42b, the reach display when the effect symbol is variably displayed on the display screen of the effect display device 34 because the result of the jackpot determination is out of place. For example, reach random numbers for determining whether or not to perform. If it is determined in step S510 that the game ball has not won the third starting port 39, or if it is determined in step S512 that the number of second special symbols has reached the upper limit, the processing in steps S514 and S516 is performed. Is skipped and the process proceeds to the next step S518.

  Next, it is determined whether or not a big hit game is being played (step S518), whether or not any of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is variably displayed (step S520), the first special symbol and the second special symbol. It is determined whether any of the symbols is during the stop display time (step S522). If it is determined that the game is a big hit game, the special symbol game process is terminated, and the process returns to the main control process to proceed to the next big hit game process in step S600. On the other hand, if it is determined that neither the first special symbol nor the second special symbol is in the variable display, and neither the first special symbol nor the second special symbol is in the stop display time, it is not in the big hit game. It is determined whether or not the number of reserved special symbols is 0 (step S524). If it is determined that the first special symbol hold number is not 0, the oldest determination random number is read out from the first special symbol determination random numbers (big hit determination random numbers) stored in the random number storage area (RAM 70c) ( Step S526), the first special symbol variation display start process shown in FIG. 12 is executed (Step S528), and the special game process is temporarily terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined that the number of reserved special symbols is 0, it is determined whether or not the number of reserved special symbols is 0 (step S530). If it is determined that the second special symbol hold number is not 0, the oldest determination random number among the second special symbol determination random numbers (big hit determination random numbers) stored in the random number storage area (RAM 70c) is read ( Step S532), the variation display start process of the second special symbol shown in FIG. 13 is executed (Step S534), and the special symbol game process is temporarily ended. When the number of reserved special symbols is also 0, the special symbol game process is terminated. In steps S524 to S534, when the number of reserved special symbols and the number of reserved second special symbols are not 0, the first special symbol change display (digestion of reservation) is preferentially executed. Details of the first special symbol variable display start process and the second special symbol variable display start process will be described below.

  First, the variable display start process of the first special symbol will be described. In the first special symbol variation display start process of FIG. 12, it is first determined whether or not the probability variation flag is on, that is, whether the current gaming state is the high probability mode or the low probability mode (step S570). ). When the probability change flag is off, that is, when the current gaming state is in the low probability mode, the jackpot determination is performed using the jackpot determination random number and the low probability jackpot determination table read in step S526 (step S571), and the probability change flag. Is turned on, that is, when the current gaming state is in the high probability mode, the big hit determination is performed using the read big hit determination random number and the high probability big hit determination table (step S572). It is determined whether or not (step S573).

  Here, an example of the jackpot determination table is shown in FIG. FIG. 14A shows a low probability jackpot determination table, and FIG. 14B shows a high probability jackpot determination table. As shown in the figure, in the jackpot determination table for low probability, the jackpot determination random number is assumed to be a jackpot when the value is 60 or 61 among the values 0 to 796 (1 / 398.5 jackpot probability). In the judgment table, the big hit is assumed when the random number for hit determination is a value of 60 to 79 out of the values 0 to 796 (a jackpot probability of 1 / 39.85).

  When the result of the big hit determination is determined to be a big hit in step S573, the big hit symbol determining random number is read from the determination random number storage area (RAM 70c) (step S574), and the big special symbol determining table of the first special symbol is set (step S574). Step S577). Then, the big hit symbol to be stopped and displayed is selected and set using the big hit symbol determination table of the set first special symbol and the read big hit symbol determination random number (step S578).

  Here, an example of the big special symbol determination table for the first special symbol is shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, in the big special symbol determination table of the first special symbol, when the random symbol for big hit symbol determination is a value 0 to 101 among the values 0 to 255, the upper symbol is selected and the “first 15R probability variable big hit” is selected. ”(40% distribution probability), when the jackpot symbol determining random number is between 102 and 203, the middle stage symbol is selected and becomes“ 5R probability variation big hit ”(40% distribution probability), for determining the jackpot symbol When the random number is between 204 and 255, the lower symbol is selected and becomes the “first 15R normal big hit” (20% distribution probability). In this big hit symbol determination table of the first special symbol, the number of rounds is different for each big hit game or the probability of change after the big hit game is different. It has become. For this reason, in the jackpot game with the first special symbol, after any jackpot game is ended, the fluctuation time shortening function (open extension function, normal figure probability fluctuation function) is activated to be in a time-saving state. Such a short time state when the special symbol probability variation function is not activated or a short time state when the special symbol probability variation function is activated is hereinafter referred to as a special state. In addition to this special state, the non-time-short state in which the fluctuation time shortening function (open extension function, general figure probability fluctuation function) does not operate regardless of whether the special symbol probability variation function is activated or not is hereinafter referred to as the normal state. That's it. Note that “the state in which the probability variation function of the special symbol is operating” is also simply referred to as “probably changing”. For this reason, the special state is a short-time state or a short-time state during probability change, and the normal state can also be called a non-short-time state.

  When the jackpot symbol is set, the variation pattern determining random number is read out (step S579), and the variation pattern is selected and set using the read variation pattern determining random number and a jackpot variation pattern table (not shown) (step S580). .

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S573 that the result of the big hit determination is not a big hit, an unillustrated out symbol determination table is set (step S581), and an out symbol is set (step S582). Although the detailed explanation is omitted, for example, the winning symbol can be set using a jackpot symbol determining random number and a not-showing symbol determining table. Of course, if the losing symbol determining random number is acquired separately from the jackpot symbol determining random number, it can be set using the losing symbol determining random number and the losing symbol determining table. When the off symbol is set, the variation pattern determining random number and the reach random number are read (step S583), and the variation pattern determining random number and the reach random number and the unillustrated variation pattern table not shown are read out. Select and set (step S584).

  When the jackpot symbol and its variation pattern are set, or when the off symbol and its variation pattern are set, the variation display of the first special symbol is started (step S585), and the number of reserved first symbol symbols is set to 1 Is decremented only (step S586), and the first special symbol variation display start process is terminated. When the variation display of the first special symbol is started in step S585, a symbol variation start command including various symbols, variation patterns, and variation time information is transmitted to the sub-control board 90. The sub control board 90 (effect display control board 91) that has received this symbol variation start command analyzes the command, determines the content of the effect to be performed on the screen of the effect display device 34, and the symbol variation on the effect display device 34. Start production.

  Next, the variation display start process of the second special symbol will be described. Since this process is mostly the same process as the first special symbol variable display start process, the same process is given the same step number as in FIG. 12 and its detailed description is omitted. In the variation display start process of the second special symbol of FIG. 13, first, when the probability variation flag is OFF in step S570, the big hit is determined in step S571 using the big hit determination random number and the low probability big hit determination table read in step S532. When the probability variation flag is ON, a big hit determination is performed in step S572 using the read big hit determination random number and the high probability big hit determination table, and in step S573, it is determined whether the determination result is a big hit. To do. In the big hit determination, the big hit symbol determination table of FIG. 14 is used as in the first special symbol variable display start process.

  When the result of the big hit determination is determined to be a big win in step S573, the big hit symbol determination random number is read from the random number storage area for determination (RAM 70c) in step S574, and the current gaming state is in a special state or a normal state. It is determined whether or not there is (step S575). In this embodiment, the value of the fluctuation shortening flag is checked, and the normal state is determined when the fluctuation shortening flag is off, and the special state is determined when the fluctuation shortening flag is on. Note that, based on the value of the release extension flag, the normal state may be determined when the release extension flag is off, and the special state may be determined when the release extension flag is on. When the normal state is determined, the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol in the normal state is set (step S576). When the special state is determined, the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol in the special state is set. (Step S577a). Then, in step S578, the big hit symbol is selected and set using the set big hit symbol determination table of the second special symbol and the read big hit symbol determination random number.

  Here, an example of the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol is shown in FIG. FIG. 16A shows a normal state table, and FIG. 16B shows a special state table. As shown in FIG. 16A, in the big special symbol determination table of the second special symbol in the normal state, the upper symbol is selected when the random number for big hit symbol determination is a value 0 to 40 out of the values 0 to 255. Thus, when the random number for determining the big hit symbol is between 41 and 203, the middle symbol is selected and becomes the “first 2R probability variable big hit” (64 %), When the big hit symbol determination random number is a value of 204 to 255, the lower symbol is selected and becomes the “second 15R normal big hit” (20% distribution probability). Here, in the first special symbol big hit symbol determination table described above, there are 15R big hits and 5R big hits as probability variation big hits, each of which has a distribution probability of 40%. On the other hand, in the big special symbol determination table of the second special symbol in the normal state, one of the probabilistic big hits is 15R but the other is 2R, and the number of rounds is small, and the distribution probability is 15R. The probability variation big hit of 16% is 2%, the probability variation big hit of 2R is 64%, and the probability of being distributed to 15R is low. For this reason, in the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol in the normal state, the expected value of the winning ball obtained is smaller than that for the big special symbol determination table for the first special symbol. Further, in the jackpot symbol determination table of the first special symbol, the time is short after the jackpot game is ended in any jackpot game, whereas the jackpot symbol determination table of the second special symbol in the normal state. In any jackpot game, there is no time saving after the jackpot game ends. In this way, in the big hit game with the second special symbol in the normal state, the expected value of the prize ball is smaller than the big hit game with the first special symbol, and there is no time saving after the big hit game ends.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 16B, in the big hit symbol determination table of the second special symbol in the special state, when the big hit symbol determination random number is a value 0-40 out of the value 0-255, the upper symbol is When selected, the first 15R probability variation jackpot (16% distribution probability) is selected, and when the jackpot symbol determination random number is between 41 and 203, the middle symbol is selected and becomes the “second 2R probability variation jackpot”. (64% distribution probability), when the big hit symbol determination random number is a value of 204 to 255, the lower symbol is selected and becomes the “first 15R normal big hit” (20% distribution probability). Note that the “first 15R probability variable big hit” and the “first 15R normal big hit” are the “first 15R positive variable big hit” and the “first 15R normal big hit” in the big special symbol determination table for the first special symbol described above. It is the same mode as “big hit”. Here, the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol in the special state is the same as the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol in the normal state in the number of rounds for each big hit and the ratio (probability of distribution) of the probability variation big hit. It has become. However, in any jackpot game, there is a short time after the jackpot game ends. In this way, in the big hit game with the second special symbol in the special state, the expected value of the big hit game with the second special symbol in the normal state and the expected value of the prize ball does not change, but there is a short time after the big hit game ends.

  That is, in the big special symbol determination table of the second special symbol, whether or not the fluctuation time shortening function (opening extension function, general figure probability fluctuation function) is activated differs depending on the game state. It becomes different whether it becomes a special state. Note that a state in which at least one of the “variation time shortening function, opening extension function, and general-purpose probability variation function” is activated is also simply referred to as “time reduction”. Therefore, if the result of the second special symbol variably displayed in the normal state (non-time-short state) (the lottery result of the second special symbol) is a big hit, the result of the first special symbol variably displayed (first This is a disadvantage compared to the case where the lottery result of 1 special symbol is a big hit. In this embodiment, when a big hit is made with the second special symbol in the normal state, no time is given after the big hit game ends. Also, in the special state, even if the lottery result of the second special symbol is a big hit, a time reduction is given after the big hit game ends. As is clear from these facts, in the normal state, the game proceeding with the second special symbol based on the game ball entering the third starting port 39 (after the big hit game or the big hit game is over) Is a disadvantageous situation for the player as compared with the game proceeding with the first special symbol based on the game ball entering the first start port 36 (second start port 37). It can be said that. Further, the game progressed by the second special symbol based on the entry of the game ball into the third start port 39 in the special state is the game ball to the third start port 39 in the normal state. Although the number of rounds and the ratio of probability variation jackpots will not change compared to the game proceeding with the second special symbol based on the entry, there will be a short time after the jackpot game ends, so the disadvantageous situation for the player will be eased It can be said that it becomes an advantageous aspect.

  When the big hit symbol is set in step S578, the fluctuation pattern is selected and set in step S580 using the fluctuation pattern determination random number read in step S579 and the big hit fluctuation pattern table (not shown). If it is determined in step S573 that the result of the big hit determination is not a big hit, in step S581 to S584, the off symbol and its variation pattern are set.

  When the jackpot symbol and its variation pattern are set, or when the off symbol and its variation pattern are set, the variation display of the second special symbol is started (step S585a), and the number of reserved special symbols is set to 1 Is decremented only (step S586a), and the second special symbol variation display start process is terminated. When the variation display of the second special symbol is started in step S585a, a symbol variation start command is transmitted to the sub-control board 90 as in step S585.

  Returning to the special symbol game process of FIGS. 9 to 11, after the variable symbol display of the special symbol (the first special symbol or the second special symbol) is started, the variable symbol variable display is being executed. When the special symbol game process is executed in step S520, it is determined in step S520 that either the first special symbol or the second special symbol is variably displayed. It is determined whether or not (step S536). Since the fluctuation display time is determined according to the fluctuation pattern when the fluctuation pattern of the special symbol is determined, whether or not the fluctuation display time has passed is determined by the elapsed time from the start of the fluctuation display of the special symbol. This can be done by comparing the determined variable display time. If it is determined that the variable display time has not elapsed, the special symbol game process is temporarily terminated. If it is determined that the variable display time has elapsed, the variable display of the special symbol being changed is stopped (step S538). When the variable display is stopped, a symbol stop command is transmitted to the sub-control board 90. The sub control board 90 (effect display control board 91) that has received this symbol stop command ends the symbol variation effect on the effect display device 34. Then, a stop display time is set (step S540), and it is determined whether or not the stop display time has elapsed (step S542). Here, the stop display time is an interval from when the special symbol variation display is stopped until the next variation display is started, and is set to 0.6 seconds, for example. If it is determined that the stop display time has not elapsed, the special symbol game process is temporarily terminated. When the special symbol stop display is made, when the special symbol game process is executed in the next lap, it is determined in step S522 that the stop display time is in progress, so it is determined again in step S542 whether or not the stop display time has elapsed. If it is determined that the stop display time has elapsed, it is determined whether or not the special symbol that is stopped and displayed is a big hit symbol (step S544).

  If it is determined in step S544 that the jackpot symbol is a special symbol at the time of jackpot occurrence, whether the special symbol is the first special symbol or the second special symbol and whether the gaming state at the time of jackpot occurrence is a special state or a normal state. It memorize | stores in RAM70c (step S545). As described above, the game state at the time of occurrence of the big hit stores the state determined based on the fluctuation shortening flag. Next, the big hit game flag is turned on (step S546). When the jackpot game flag is turned on, a jackpot game start command is transmitted to the sub-control board 90. The sub-control board 90 that has received this jackpot game start command executes a jackpot game start effect. Note that the jackpot game start effect is such that a control signal is output to the effect display control board 91 so that the jackpot fanfare screen indicating the occurrence of the jackpot is displayed on the effect display device 34, and sound corresponding to the screen display is output from the speakers 28a and 28b. The driving signal is output to the amplifier board 92 so that the LED signal is output, and the driving signal is output to the decorative driving board 93 so that the LED 93a is turned on corresponding to the screen display. Further, during the big hit game, in order to stop the probability variation function, the time shortening function, and the release extension function, the probability variation flag is turned off when the probability variation flag is on (steps S548 and S550), and the variation shortening flag when the variation shortening flag is on. Is turned off and the release extension flag is turned off (steps S552 to S556), the special symbol game process is terminated, and the process returns to the main control process and proceeds to the next big hit game process of step S600.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S544 that the symbol is not a big hit symbol, it is determined whether or not the variation shortening flag is on (step S558). If the variation shortening flag is not on, the special symbol game process is temporarily terminated. When the variation shortening flag is on, the variation shortening counter is decremented by 1 (step S560), and it is determined whether or not the variation shortening counter is 0 (step S562). Here, the fluctuation shortening counter indicates the upper limit value of the number of fluctuations of the special symbol that maintains the short-time state, and a value corresponding to the big hit mode (for example, value 10000) is set at the end of the big hit game. When the fluctuation shortening counter is not 0, the special symbol game process is temporarily terminated while maintaining the time shortening state. When the fluctuation shortening counter is 0, the variation shortening flag is turned off in order to terminate the time shortening state ( In step S564), the release extension flag is turned off (step S566), and the special symbol game process is temporarily ended. Thereby, the gaming state of the pachinko machine 10 is changed from the special state which is the time-short state to the normal state which is the non-time-short state.

[Big hit game processing]
The big hit game process of step S600 is executed according to the flowchart shown in FIG. When the big hit game process of FIG. 17 is executed, the CPU 70a of the main control board 70 first determines whether or not the big hit game flag is on, that is, whether or not the big hit game is in progress (step 602). When it is determined that the big hit game flag is off, the big hit game processing is terminated as it is. On the other hand, if it is determined that the big hit game flag is on, it is determined whether or not the big winning opening 44 is open (step S604), and if it is determined that the big winning opening 44 is closed (not open), It is determined whether or not it is the opening timing of the winning opening 44 (step S606). This determination is performed by determining whether or not a prescribed closing time (2 seconds in this embodiment) has elapsed. If it is determined that it is the opening timing of the big prize opening 44, the big prize opening solenoid 44b is driven and controlled so that the big prize opening 44 is opened (step S608), and the big hit game processing is once ended. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S606 that it is not the timing for opening the big winning opening 44, the big hit game process is once ended.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S604 that the special winning opening 44 is open, it is determined whether or not it is the closing timing of the special winning opening 44 (step S610). This determination is either that the specified opening time (25 seconds in this embodiment) has elapsed or that the number of game balls that have won the big winning opening 44 has reached the specified number (10 in this embodiment). This is done by determining whether or not If it is determined that it is not the closing timing of the big prize opening 44, the big hit game process is temporarily ended while the big prize opening 44 is kept open. On the other hand, if it is determined that it is the closing timing of the big prize opening 44, the big prize opening solenoid 44b is driven and controlled so that the big prize opening 44 is closed (step S612), and it is determined whether or not the big hit game ending condition is satisfied. Determination is made (step S614). This determination is performed by determining whether or not the special winning opening 44 is opened according to the specified number of rounds. The prescribed number of rounds is set to 2 rounds, 5 rounds, 15 rounds, etc. according to the type of jackpot (see FIGS. 15 and 16). If it is determined in step S614 that the big hit game end condition is not satisfied, the big hit game process is once ended. On the other hand, if it is determined that the big hit game end condition is satisfied, the big hit game end process illustrated in FIG. 18 is executed (step S616), and the big hit game process ends.

  In the big hit game end process of FIG. 18, the CPU 70a of the main control board 70 first turns off the big hit game flag (step S630), and determines whether or not the special symbol at the time of the big hit is the first special symbol. If it is not the first special symbol but the second special symbol, it is determined whether or not the gaming state at the time of occurrence of the big hit is a normal state (step S634). These determinations are made based on the stored contents because the special symbol and the game state at the time of jackpot occurrence are stored in the RAM 70c in the process of step S545 of the special symbol game process of FIG. In step S632, it is determined that the special symbol at the time of occurrence of the big hit is the first special symbol. In steps S632 and S634, the special symbol at the time of occurrence of the big hit is the second special symbol (not the first special symbol) and When it is determined that the gaming state is a special state (not a normal state), the jackpot symbol is a probability variation symbol, that is, the current jackpot is “first 15R probability variation jackpot”, “5R probability variation jackpot”, “second 2R probability variation jackpot” ] (See FIGS. 15 and 16) (step S636). If it is determined that the symbol is a probability variation symbol, the probability variation flag is turned on (step S638), the fluctuation shortening flag is turned on (step S640), the release extension flag is turned on (step S642), and the fluctuation shortening counter is set to 10,000 times. (Step S644), and the big hit game end processing is finished. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S636 that it is not a probability variation symbol, that is, the current big hit is “the first 15R normal big hit” (see FIGS. 15 and 16), the fluctuation shortening flag is turned on and the release extension flag is set in steps S640 to S644. Is turned on, the fluctuation shortening counter is set to 10,000 times, and the big hit game end processing is ended. As a result, after the jackpot game generated in the first special symbol is finished or after the jackpot game generated in the second special symbol in the special state is finished, the probability change is given depending on whether or not the game is a probability variation symbol. At the same time, time saving and open extension are always given. That is, it is always in a special state. Since the fluctuation shortening counter is set 10,000 times, the fluctuation shortening counter cannot normally have a value of 0, and the time-saving state does not end until the next big hit is drawn. When the probability change is given, the probability change state continues until the next big hit.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in steps S632 and S634 that the special symbol at the time of the big hit is the second special symbol (not the first special symbol) and the gaming state at the time of the big hit is the normal state, It is determined whether the current big hit is “second 15R probability variation big hit” or “first 2R probability variation big hit” (see FIG. 16) (step S646). If it is determined that the symbol is a probability variation symbol, the probability variation flag is turned on (step S648), and the big hit game end processing is terminated. If the current big hit is determined to be “second 15R normal big hit” (see FIG. 16), the big hit game end process is terminated as it is. As a result, after the big hit game generated in the second special symbol in the normal state is over, the probability change is given depending on whether or not it is the probability variation symbol, but the time reduction and the open extension are not given. . That is, it does not become a special state, and as described above, it becomes a disadvantageous mode for the player.

  According to the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment described above, the first start port 36 and the third start port 39 that are configured to have a constant opening state (opening width) are connected to the left region and the right region of the game region 31. Further, in a gaming machine in which a variable second start opening 37 that can change the opening state (opening width) is arranged in the right region of the gaming area 31, the gaming machine 31 is in a normal state (non-short-time state). ), The game progressed by the second special symbol based on the game ball entering the third start port 39 is based on the game ball entering the first start port 36 or the second start port 37. Thus, the player is in a mode that is disadvantageous to the player as compared to the game that is progressed by the first special symbol (the mode when the big hit is made is disadvantageous). In addition, by making it possible to store up to 4 hold of the first special symbol and the second special symbol respectively, in the special state where the player mainly strikes right (short-time state, time-variable probability variation state) In addition to holding the first special symbol by entering the second starting port 37 and holding the second special symbol by entering the third starting port 39, a maximum of eight holds can be realized.

  Further, in the normal state, the game progressed based on the game ball entering the third start port 39 is compared with the game progressed based on the game ball entering the first start port 36. Since the player is in a disadvantageous manner, the player can be prevented from aiming at the third starting port 39 and playing. For this reason, in order to prevent the player from aiming at the third start opening 39 from the normal state, the nail adjustment that requires a skilled technique is performed to move to the third start opening 39 rather than the first start opening 36. It is not necessary to adjust the entrance rate of the golf ball to be low. Further, when adjusting the entrance rate by adjusting the nail, it is necessary to prevent the entrance rate to the third starting port 39 from becoming too low so as not to forget the significance of the entrance. .

  As a result, when the player hits the right in a special state in which the variable second start opening 37 is in an advantageous state, the player holds more hold (the first special symbol and the second special symbol). Both hold can be saved), and the game can proceed as designed without requiring complicated nail adjustment. Here, the “game as designed” means that in a normal state, the game is launched into the area on the left side of the game area 31 to enjoy the flow of the game ball and enter the first start opening 36 to enjoy the game. Has been. And once it is in a special state (first hit from the normal state), it can be fired in a short time by launching it to the area on the right side of the game area 31 with the second start opening 37, the third start opening 39 and the big prize opening 44. It is said that the game will change to a prize ball. Thereby, it is possible to change the game between the normal state and the special state, sharpen the game, and enhance the interest of the game. Further, in the special state, the second start port 37 is advantageous by giving a short time after the end of the big hit game to the game progressed by the second special symbol based on the ball entering the third start port 39. The player is encouraged to hit the player in a special state (short and medium time) in the right state, and a large amount of prize balls can be obtained in a short time. Thereby, the interest of the game can be enhanced.

  In the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment, the game progressed by the second special symbol based on the entrance to the third starting port 39 in the special state is made shorter than the normal state by making the game time shorter after the big hit game is over. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and even in a special state, it may be the same as the normal state. In this case, what is necessary is just to use the jackpot symbol determination table (FIG. 16A) of the second special symbol in the normal state in both the normal state and the special state. Even if it does in this way, when a player hits the 2nd starting port 37 and hits the right, the holding of the second special symbol is added to the holding of the first special symbol, and a maximum of eight holdings are held. Therefore, there is an effect that the third start port 39 is provided. Further, at this time, if the player has a so-called first special symbol priority changing function that changes the first special symbol in preference to the second special symbol, the player does not hold the first special symbol. It will be played so that it does not become. In other words, since the player can be prevented from stopping, a profit is given to the game store in terms of improving the operating rate of the gaming machine, which is more effective.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, in the jackpot symbol determination table of the first special symbol, there is always a short time after the jackpot game is finished (the probability variation function, the variation time shortening function, the release extension function is activated), 2 In the special symbol big hit symbol determination table, there is always no time reduction (probability change function, variable time shortening function, open extension function is inactive) after the big hit game ends, but this is not a limitation, and the probability that there will be a time reduction The probability that the probability variation function, the variation time shortening function, and the open extension function are activated may be changed as different probabilities. In this case, the probability that there will be a short time is lower in the jackpot symbol determination table of the second special symbol in the normal state than the jackpot symbol determination table of the first special symbol, the probability variation function and the variation time shortening function, The frequency with which at least one of the open extension functions is activated may be reduced. Similarly, in the big special symbol determination table for the second special symbol in the special state, the time is always short after the big hit game ends, but the probability of the short time being higher than the normal state is increased to reduce the probability variation function and the variation time. The frequency at which at least one of the function and the open extension function is activated may be increased.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, in the jackpot symbol determination table of the first special symbol and the jackpot symbol determination table of the second special symbol in the special state, the probability variation function, the variation time shortening function, the opening extension after the jackpot game ends. The three functions are assumed to operate together, but the present invention is not limited to this, and any one function or only any two functions may operate.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the jackpot symbol determination table for the second special symbol (including for the normal state and for the special state) sets a jackpot with a smaller number of rounds than the jackpot symbol determination table for the first special symbol. It is assumed that the expected value of the prize ball will be reduced by increasing the possibility of being won, but this is not restrictive, and the expected value of the prize ball will be the same by aligning the number of rounds set and the distribution probability Also good. That is, the probability change, time reduction, and winning ball of the second special symbol big hit symbol determination table in the special state may all be the same as the big special symbol determination table of the first special symbol. Thereby, the interest of the game can be further enhanced by holding the second special symbol by entering the third starting port 39. In addition, in the first special symbol jackpot symbol determination table and the second special symbol jackpot symbol determination table, two types of round numbers are exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be distributed.

  In the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment, in the big special symbol determination table for the first special symbol and the special special symbol big hit symbol determination table, since the fluctuation shortening counter is set to 10,000 times, it is usually a big hit next time. It is assumed that the time-short state does not end until the time is pulled, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the time-short state may end before the next big hit. In that case, the time reduction count may be set to 100 times, 50 times, etc., and the fluctuation shortening counter may be set to 100 times, 50 times, or the like.
