JP 2010-207383 A

  However, since the pachinko machine disclosed in Patent Document 1 is configured to select a character to appear by random lottery, the expectation of the hit game cannot be estimated depending on the type of the character that appeared, and reach production It has the disadvantage of lacking in interest.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and by setting the frequency at which a specific reach effect is executed in a specific game state based on the number of consecutive consecutive hit games, To provide a pachinko machine that can effectively express the expectations and anxiety that a player has.

  As a configuration related to a pachinko machine for solving the above-mentioned problem, a lottery lottery is executed when a game ball wins a starting winning opening provided in the game area of the game board, and the result of the lottery win is In some cases, the lottery means for determining a predetermined hit type from a plurality of hit types, and the effect symbol variation display capable of displaying a predetermined effect symbol and an effect display based on the result of the lottery by the lottery means The change display control means for determining the change time of the effect symbol in the means, the effect mode selection means for selecting the effect mode according to the hit type, and the effect symbol change display means are controlled and determined by the change display control means. The effect design is displayed by the effect mode selection means from the plurality of effect pattern tables provided corresponding to the change time while displaying the effect symbol based on the change time. An effect display control means for selecting a specific effect pattern corresponding to the game mode and executing an effect display according to the effect pattern, and whether or not the predetermined hit type determined based on the winning / losing lottery obtains the next winning game A mode continuation number storage means for counting the number of hits and storing the number as the number of mode continuations when the winning probability per lottery is a specific hit type for shifting to the first game mode in which the lottery is drawn with the first probability. In the pachinko machine having the first and second effects, the first effect is to execute an effect in which the result of the lottery determination in the game indicates that the continuation of the first game mode is confirmed to the player. The mode and the result of the winning / losing lottery indicate that the winning game probability for the winning / losing lottery until the next winning game is obtained becomes the second game mode in which the lottery is drawn with a second probability lower than the first probability. A second effect mode including a second effect mode, wherein the plurality of effect pattern tables suggests a stepwise transition to the second game mode in accordance with the mode continuation count stored by the mode continuation count storage means. The effect display control means continues the first game mode in which the current game mode is the first game mode and the first game mode is included. In the case of the specific hit type to be performed, the probability that the effect pattern of the second effect mode that suggests shifting to the second game mode is selected as the first game mode continues. In this way, the effect pattern is selected with reference to a plurality of effect pattern tables.

According to the pachinko machine having this configuration, when the effect display control means is that the current game mode is the first game mode and the hit type is a specific hit type for continuing the first game mode. Referring to the plurality of effect pattern tables so that the probability of selecting the effect pattern of the second effect mode that suggests shifting to the second game mode increases as the hit of the first game mode continues. Since the effect pattern is selected, every time the game mode is repeatedly shifted to the first game mode, the game mode is shifted to the second game mode when the hit type is a specific hit type to be shifted to the first game mode. The effect pattern in the second effect mode that suggests this is easily displayed, and the player can perform the performance displayed on the effect symbol variation display means during the so-called consecutive resort where a specific hit is continuously obtained. Always pounding the pattern, suspenseful and will be watched while, enjoyment of the game is improved.
More specifically, since the frequency of displaying the effect pattern that may shift to the second game mode increases as the consecutive resort (mode continuation count) increases, the player is always nervous. A game with a feeling can be executed.
Further, as another configuration of the pachinko machine for solving the above-described problem, the effect display control means includes a specific hit in which the game mode is the first game mode and the hit type is the first game mode. In the case of the type, when the hit is the first hit after the transition to the first game mode, the second effect mode that suggests shifting to the second game mode among the plurality of effect pattern tables The effect pattern table in which the selection rate of the effect pattern in the first effect mode, which suggests that the first game mode continues, is referred to rather than the effect pattern.
According to this configuration, when the game display mode is the first game mode and the win type is the specific hit type to be shifted to the first game mode, the effect display control means has the first hit as the first hit mode. 1st than the production pattern of the 2nd production mode which suggests changing to the 2nd game mode among a plurality of production pattern tables on condition that it is the first hit after the shift to game mode. Since the player refers to the production pattern table in which the selection rate of the production pattern in the first production mode, which suggests that the game mode of the first game mode will continue, the player first moves to the first game mode after the transition to the first game mode. As for winning, the frequency of viewing the production pattern in the first production mode that suggests shifting to the first game mode is increased, and the production pattern will be watched with peace of mind. Flavor is improved.
The summary of the invention does not enumerate all the necessary features of the present invention, and individual configurations constituting the feature group can also be the invention.

It is a state.

When the result of the first special figure lottery or the second special figure lottery is a hit (per first special figure or second special figure), the main controller 100 turns the attacker drive unit 65A. By controlling, a predetermined number of rounds are released, thereby providing a winning game that is advantageous to the player.
In the present embodiment, the predetermined number of rounds in which the attacker device 65 is released is, for example, 4 rounds or 16 rounds, the maximum number of winnings per round is 9, and the maximum open time of the attacker device 65 is 30 seconds. . In other words, when the number of game balls won in the first big prize opening 64 reaches nine before 30 seconds have passed since the time when the attacker device 65 was opened, and the number of game balls won in the first big prize opening 64 If 30 seconds elapse from the time when the attacker device 65 is opened before the number reaches nine, one round is completed. It should be noted that whether the winning game is 2 rounds, 4 rounds, or 16 rounds, which will be described later, differs depending on the types of hits that exist. Also, the opening time per round may be different depending on the type per special figure.

  The second grand prize winning port 77 is provided below the first start winning prize port 61, and the prize winning port is closed so that a game ball cannot win in the second major winning prize port 77. The second grand prize winning port 77 is a lottery (first special drawing lottery or second special drawing lottery) performed when a game ball wins the first starting winning port 61 or the second starting winning port 62. When the special figure or the second special figure is two rounds of small hits or big hits (2R special symbol A or 2R special symbol B), it is released by the second big prize opening driving device 77A. The opening time per round of the second grand prize winning port 77 is about 0.2 seconds. Since the opening time of the second big winning opening 77 is extremely short compared to the opening time of the above-described attacker device 65, it is difficult to win a game ball and it is difficult to obtain a substantial winning ball. It is. That is, the opening operation of the second grand prize winning port 77 is a small notification that the winning operation has won two rounds of small hits or big hits.

  The prize ball payout device 301 is a device for paying out the prize balls to the tray 6. The number of prize balls to be paid out is associated in advance with each of the first start winning opening 61, the second starting winning opening 62, the first major winning opening 64, the general winning opening 67, and the second major winning opening 77. The main control device 100 is configured to instruct the payout control device 300 of the number of prize balls to be paid out in advance, based on the payout port where the winning of the game ball is detected, and the payout control device 300. The device 300 is configured to drive a payout motor (not shown) of the prize ball payout device 301 in accordance with a command from the main control device 100 so that the prize ball payout device 301 pays out a prize ball. Also, the prize balls paid out from the prize ball payout device 301 are counted by the payout counting switch 302 disposed in the flow path of the prize ball payout device 301, and the payout control device 300 receives the input from the payout counting switch 302. Based on this, the payout operation is stopped. In the present embodiment, the number of prize balls previously associated with the first start winning opening 61 and the second start winning opening 62 is three, and is associated with the first major winning opening 64 and the second major winning opening 77 in advance. The number of prize balls received is 13, and the number of prize balls previously associated with the general winning opening 67 is 5. The game balls that have not won any of the first start winning opening 61, the second starting winning opening 62, the first big winning opening 64, the general winning opening 67, and the second big winning opening 77 are in the game area 31. It is collected from the out port 68 located at the bottom.

Hereinafter, the hardware configuration of the main control device 100 and the sub control device 200 will be described with reference to FIG. 3, and the main control processing in the pachinko machine 1 will be described.
As shown in the figure, the main controller 100 includes a special symbol success / failure lottery means 110, a variable display control means 130, a normal symbol success / failure lottery means 150, a winning game control means 160, an electric tulip control means 170, and a game state control. Means 180 is provided.
The sub control device 200 displays a variation display of the effect symbol S on the effect symbol display device 50 based on various commands such as the effect symbol change command, the effect mode shift command, and the hit game start command transmitted from the main control device 100. There is provided an effect display control means 210 for executing various effect operations such as reach effect and winning game start effect.
The effect display control means 210 and the effect symbol variation means 220 for varyingly displaying the effect symbol S for a predetermined variation time and according to the contents of the effect symbol variation command, and stopping and displaying the effect symbol S as the predetermined variation time elapses. The production mode is shifted based on the production mode transition command transmitted from the control device 100, and the production mode selection means 230 for selecting a predetermined background corresponding to the production mode after the transition, the current production mode and the production design Based on the contents of the change command, the change effect determination means 240 for determining the effect display corresponding to the current game mode in accordance with the change of the effect symbol S described above, and the number of continuations of a specific effect mode, which will be described later, Mode continuation frequency counting means 250 that counts according to the number of times of reception.
Each of these means is a means set by a computer program and data stored in the ROM in order to perform control related to the game.
The main control device 100 and the sub-control device 200 are connected to the hall computer 501 via the external relay board 500, and the hall computer 501 has a cumulative change count of the first special symbol and the second special symbol, per cumulative total. Various information related to the game, such as the number of games, is transmitted.

Hereinafter, each unit included in the main control device 100 and the sub control device 200 will be described.
The special symbol success / failure lottery means 110 of the main control device 100 wins the game (per 1st special figure or 2nd special figure) with the winning of the game ball in the first start winning opening 61 or the second starting winning opening 62. ) Or losing is determined by electronic lottery.
As shown in FIG. 4, the special symbol success / failure lottery means 110 sets the value of the loop counter to a predetermined range (0 to 65535 in this embodiment) based on an interrupt signal periodically (for example, every 2 milliseconds). And a game ball to the first start winning port 61 or the second starting winning port 62, and a random number for determining whether or not to determine whether to generate a random number for determining whether or not is a hardware random number. In other words, based on the input of the game ball detection signal from the first start winning port detecting sensor 91 or the second starting winning port detecting sensor 92 to the main control device 100, a random number for determination of success / failure is generated. Randomness determination random number acquisition means 112 that acquires (latches) the randomness for determination of success / failure generated by the means 111, and the randomness for determination of success / failure acquired by the randomness determination randomness acquisition means 112. Special figure success / failure determination means for determining whether or not it is lost by referring to the special figure low-accuracy determination table 113A shown in FIG. 5A or the special figure high-probability determination table 113B shown in FIG. 113, and the random number for winning / determining determination 112 obtains the random number for determining pass / fail based on the winning of the game ball to the first starting winning opening 61 or the second starting winning opening 62 during the variation of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. A random determination holding unit 114 for determining whether or not the random number is stored using the RAM of the main control device 100, up to a predetermined upper limit number as a reserved ball random number related to the first special symbol or the second special symbol, respectively, when acquired. Is provided.
In addition, the upper limit of the random numbers that can be stored on hold is four winning / not-determining random numbers acquired when winning at the first start winning opening 61, and whether or not it is acquired when winning at the second starting winning opening 62 The total number of determination random numbers is up to a total of eight. For example, the first start winning prize is obtained when the number of winning / failing determination random numbers already stored based on winning in the first starting prize winning opening 61 is the upper limit of four. Even if winning is made to the mouth 61, the random number for success / failure determination is not acquired, and the same applies to the second start winning mouth 62.

The special figure low-accuracy time determination table 113A and the special figure high-accuracy time determination table 113B shown in FIG. 5 define the correspondence between the random numbers for determination of success / failure and the winning / losing. Specifically, in the special figure low-accuracy determination table 113A shown in FIG. 5A, the hit determination random numbers 0 to 186 are associated in advance, and the hit determination random numbers 187 to 65535 are lost. Corresponding in advance. That is, the probability of winning when the special figure low-accuracy determination table 113A is referenced is about 1/350.
On the other hand, in the special figure high-accuracy determination table 113B shown in FIG. 5B, the hit determination random numbers 0 to 1860 are associated in advance, and the hit determination random numbers 1861 to 65535 are preliminarily lost. It is associated. That is, the probability of winning when the special figure high-accuracy determination table 113B is referenced is about 1/35. As can be seen by comparing these winning probabilities, the winning probability per special figure based on the special figure high-accuracy determination table 113B is less than the probability winning per special figure based on the special figure low-probability determination table 113A. 10 times higher.

  It should be noted that the gaming state in which the special symbol low-probability determination table 113A is referred to in the special symbol success / failure lottery means 110 and the winning or losing state is determined is the special-graphic low-probability state in the present invention. The gaming state in which the table 113B is used and the winning or losing is determined is a special figure high probability state (so-called probabilistic gaming state) in the present invention. Hereinafter, for convenience, the “special figure low probability state” is referred to as “special figure low probability”, and the “special figure high probability state” is referred to as “special figure high probability” or “probability change game”. The switching between the special figure low probability or the special figure high probability is executed by a gaming state control means 180 described later.

In addition to the above-described means, the special symbol success / failure lottery means 110 includes a hit type determination random number generation means 115, a hit type determination random number acquisition means 116, a hit type determination means 117, and a hit type determination random number hold. Means 118 are provided. Each of these means is a special symbol that is derived and displayed on the first special symbol display device 40A or the second special symbol display device 40B when the result of the determination (lottery) by the special symbol success / failure determination means 113 is a win. Is determined by electronic lottery from a plurality of special symbols.
Specifically, the hit type determination random number generation means 115 sets the value of the loop counter within a predetermined range (0 in the present embodiment) based on the interrupt signal periodically input as in the case of the randomness determination random number generation means 111. The random number for hit type is generated by updating by 1 in the range of an integer of ~ 99. The winning type determining random number obtaining means 116 is for determining the winning type generated by the winning type determining random number generating means 115 when the game ball is won in the first starting winning opening 61 or the second starting winning opening 62. Get (latch) a random number. The hit type determining means 117 refers to the first special figure type table 117A or the second special figure type table 117B based on the hit type determining random number acquired by the hit type determining random number acquiring unit 116. The type of the first special symbol or the second special symbol is determined.

  The winning type determination random number holding means 118 is a random number for determining the winning type based on the winning of the game ball in the first starting winning port 61 or the second starting winning port 62 during the variation of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. When the acquisition means 116 acquires the hit type determination random number, the random number is used as the hit type determination random number related to the first special symbol or the second special symbol, and the RAM of the main controller 100 is used up to a predetermined upper limit number. And hold them individually. In addition, the upper limit of random numbers that can be stored on hold is the same as the upper limit in the above-described randomness for determination.

As shown in FIG. 6A, the first special figure type table 117A includes a hit type determining random number (first special figure type determining random number) acquired in response to winning in the first start winning opening. It defines the correspondence with special symbol types.
Further, as shown in FIG. 6 (b), the second special figure type table 117B includes a hit type determining random number (second special figure type determining random number acquired in response to a winning at the second start winning opening. ) And special symbol types.
As shown in the figure, the special symbol types (per category) defined in the first special symbol type table 117A are 2R special symbol A, 2R special symbol B, 4R special symbol A, 4R special symbol B, and 16R special symbol. There are five types of symbol A, and the types of special symbols (scoring types) defined in the second special symbol type table 117B are 16R special symbol A, 16R special symbol B, 16R special symbol C, 16 special symbol D, There are six types of 16R special symbol E and 16R special symbol F.
That is, in this embodiment, when the first special figure lottery is executed and the first special figure type table 117A is referred to, there is a possibility that a hit type of 2R, 4R, or 16R may be selected. On the other hand, when the second special figure lottery is executed and the second special figure type table 117B is referred to, the 16R hit type is always selected, and the expected number of winning balls obtained in the winning game is The winning game obtained by the second special drawing lottery is set higher.

In addition, when the first special symbol type table 117A is referred to and the type of the first special symbol is determined to be the 2R special symbol A, the first special symbol display device 40A is derived on the first special symbol display device 40A after the elapse of the fluctuation time described later. One special symbol is displayed, for example, as a “2” doublet.
When the first special symbol type table 117A is referred to and the type of the first special symbol is determined to be the 2R special symbol B, the first special symbol display device 40A is derived after the elapse of the fluctuation time described later. One special symbol is displayed as, for example, a “4” doublet.
Similarly, when the type of the first special symbol is determined to be the 4R special symbol A, the first special symbol derived on the first special symbol display device 40A is displayed, for example, as a “6” doublet. The
Similarly, when the type of the first special symbol is determined to be the 4R special symbol B, the first special symbol derived on the first special symbol display device 40A is displayed as, for example, a “8” double eye. The
In addition, when the first special symbol type table 117A or the second special symbol type table 117B is referred to and the type of the first special symbol or the second special symbol is determined to be the 16R special symbol A, the first special symbol display is performed. The first special symbol or the second special symbol derived on the device 40A or the second special symbol display device 40B is displayed, for example, as a doublet of “7”.

When the second special symbol type table 117B is referred to and the type of the second special symbol is determined to be the 16R special symbol B, the second special symbol derived on the second special symbol display device 40B is, for example, It is displayed as a “1” doublet.
Further, when the second special symbol type table 117B is referred to and the type of the second special symbol is determined to be the 16R special symbol C, the second special symbol derived on the second special symbol display device 40B is, for example, It is displayed as a “3” doublet.
When the second special symbol type table 117B is referred to and the second special symbol type is determined to be the 16R special symbol D, the second special symbol derived on the second special symbol display device 40B is, for example, It is displayed as a “5” doublet.
When the second special symbol type table 117B is referred to and the type of the second special symbol is determined to be the 16R special symbol E, the second special symbol derived on the second special symbol display device 40B is, for example, It is displayed as a “9” doublet.
When the second special symbol type table 117B is referred to and the type of the second special symbol is determined to be the 16R special symbol F, the second special symbol derived on the second special symbol display device 40B is, for example, It is displayed as a doublet of the alphabet “F”.
If the result of the first special symbol lottery or the second special symbol lottery is lost, for example, an indistinguishable shape or symbol is displayed on the first special symbol display device 40A or the second special symbol display device 40B. Is done. Further, the specific display of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is merely an example, and is not limited to this. The display may be indistinguishable or difficult for all types of hits.

  Next, the hit types defined in the first special figure type table 117A and the second special figure type table 117B will be described. Each of the 2R special symbol A, 2R special symbol B, 4R special symbol A, 4R special symbol B, and 16R special symbol A to F is associated in advance with the number of rounds of the winning game. “2R”, “4R”, and “16R” are abbreviations of “2 rounds”, “4 rounds”, and “16 rounds”, and are associated in advance with the special symbols (the first special symbol or the second special symbol). The number of rounds per game played. That is, the type of the number of rounds of the winning game is determined by determining the type (winning type) of the special symbol that is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 40A or the second special symbol display device 40B. It is like that. Further, according to the winning type derived as a result of the first special figure lottery or the second special figure lottery, the game state control means 180 described later executes a game state transition process.

As described above, the special symbol success / failure lottery means 110 acquires the success / failure determination random number and the winning type determination random number when the game ball has won the first start winning opening 61 or the second starting winning opening 62. , A special symbol lottery for the success / failure based on the arrival of a predetermined opportunity, and a function for determining the special symbol (first special symbol or the second special symbol) for the success / failure from a plurality of types of special symbols Prepare.
Here, the predetermined opportunity is a case where the first special symbol and the second special symbol are not changing and the game is not in a winning game. For example, the current gaming state is not in a winning game, If the first special symbol or the second special symbol is fluctuating at the time of holding the random number for determining whether or not to win and the random number for determining the hit type, the fluctuation time of the first special symbol or the second special symbol in the fluctuation has passed, After stopping in a predetermined manner, the above processing is executed sequentially.
The order in which the above-described success / failure determination process and the hit type determination process that is executed subsequent to the above-described process is performed is the order of winning the first start winning opening 61 or the second starting winning opening 62, in other words, in the RAM. The determination may be executed in the order in which they are stored, or for example, priority determination processing and winning type determination processing related to the random number for determination of success / failure acquired by winning one of the second start winning openings 62 may be executed. It may be.

Returning to FIG. 3, the winning game control means 160 will be described. The winning game control means 160 drives the attacker driving device 65A or the second big prize opening driving device 77A to hit the player when the result of the first special drawing lottery or the second special drawing lottery is winning. Provide games.
Specifically, when the type of the first special figure is 2R special symbol A, the winning game control means 160 drives the second big prize opening driving device 77A to move the second big prize opening 77 around one round. Open for 0.2 seconds. Similarly, when the type of the first special figure is 2R special symbol B, the winning game control means 160 drives the second big prize opening driving device 77A to make the second big prize opening 77 one round. Open for 0.2 seconds. When the type of the first special symbol is 4R special symbol A, the winning game control means 160 drives the attacker driving device 65A to open the first big prize opening 64 for a maximum of 30 seconds per round. Similarly, when the type of the first special figure is 4R special symbol B, the winning game control means 160 drives the attacker driving device 65A to release the first big prize opening 64 for a maximum of 30 seconds per round. To do.
In addition, when the type per the first special figure or the second special figure is the 16R special symbol A, or when the type per the second special figure is the 16R special symbol B to F, the winning game control means 160 Then, the attacker driving device 65A is driven to open the first big prize opening 64 for 30 seconds at the maximum for one round. In other words, the winning game control means 160 opens the first big winning opening 64 or the second big winning opening 77 for a predetermined time in accordance with the round specified for each hit type, so that the game state is advantageous to the player. A certain hit game is executed.

  The normal symbol success / failure lottery means 150 shown in FIG. 3 determines whether or not to lose the usual figure by electronic lottery (ordinary drawing lottery) when the game ball passes through the through chucker 66. This normal symbol success / failure lottery means 150 is configured in substantially the same manner as the special symbol success / failure lottery means 110 described above. Specifically, as shown in FIG. Based on an interrupt signal that is periodically input (for example, 2 milliseconds 普), the value of the loop counter is updated one by one within a predetermined range, thereby generating a random number for determining whether or not it is a software random number. When the game ball passes through the random number generator 151 and the through chucker 66, in other words, based on the fact that the game ball detection signal from the through chucker detection sensor 94 is input to the main controller 100, Random number acquisition means 152 for acquiring or latching the random numbers for normal / unusual occurrence generated by the random number generating means for random use 151, A normal / unusual determination unit 153 that determines whether the random number for normal / unusual is per common map or lost by referring to the normal / low-probability determination table 153A or the normal / high-probability determination table 153B; If the random number acquisition unit 152 for normal / unusual symbols acquires the random number for normal / unusual during the change of the normal symbol, the random number for normal / unusable random number is converted into the normal symbol up to a predetermined upper limit number (four in this embodiment). There is provided a random number holding means 154 for determining whether or not to use the RAM of the main control device 100 as the reserved ball random number. That is, the normal symbol use lottery means 150 is a means for performing a general drawing lottery related to success / failure when the game ball passes through the through chucker 66.

  The common figure low-accuracy determination table 153A and the common figure high-accuracy determination table 153B prescribe the correspondence between the random numbers for rejecting the common figure and the common figure and lose, and the specific contents are not shown. However, the winning probability per ordinary figure according to the ordinary figure high-accuracy determination table 153B is set to 1 / 1.1, for example, and the winning probability per ordinary figure according to the ordinary figure low-accuracy determination table 153A is 1/120. Is set. In other words, the normal figure high-accuracy determination table 153B is set to have a much higher probability of winning per normal figure than the normal figure low-accuracy determination table 153A. Wins per figure.

  In the following, for convenience, the game state in which the normal symbol low / high probability determination table 153A is used in the normal symbol success / failure lottery means 150 to determine whether or not the base symbol is hit or lost is referred to as “normal low probability”. The gaming state in which the time determination table 153B is used to determine whether or not the usual figure is hit or lost is referred to as “normal figure high probability” or “hour short game”. The switching between the “normal figure low probability” or “normal figure high probability” is executed by the gaming state control means 180 described later.

  The electric tulip control means 170 shown in FIG. 3 energizes the electric tulip drive device 63A of the electric tulip 63 when winning by the electronic lottery (ordinary drawing lottery) by the normal symbol winning lottery means 150. The pair of blade members of the electric tulip 63 is opened and closed. The electric tulip control means 170 opens the electric tulip 63 twice in an opening time of, for example, 2.9 seconds with respect to one general figure in the normal figure high accuracy. The electric tulip 63 is opened once with an opening time of 0.2 seconds per hit. In the ordinary figure high accuracy (during short-time game), as described above, the ordinary symbol winning lottery means 150 is won by the electronic lottery, and the electric tulip 63 is 2.9 seconds based on the winning. Since it is opened twice, if the player launches a game ball on the right side of the game board 30, the game ball can be easily won at the second starting prize opening 62. The game can be played with almost no game balls. That is, normally, the electric tulip 63 is easily opened, and the player can easily (support) winning of the game ball into the second start winning opening 62 (so-called electric support state). It is.

Next, the gaming state control means 180 shown in FIG. 3 will be described with reference to FIG.
When the result of the first special figure lottery or the second special figure lottery is a win (per 1st special figure or 2nd special figure), the gaming state control means 180 will win according to the type of the win. Switches the game state after the game (a combination of special figure low accuracy, special figure high accuracy, general figure low accuracy, general figure high accuracy) and the variation pattern selection mode. The variation pattern selection mode is a type of variation pattern table selected by the variation display control unit 130 described later. For example, when the mode is switched to the normal variation pattern table selection mode, the variation display control unit 130 displays the normal variation pattern table. To determine the variation time of the special symbol and the effect symbol S. The relationship between the fluctuation display control means 130 and a plurality of fluctuation pattern tables will be described later.

  As shown in FIG. 11, there are 10 types of hit types in this embodiment, 2R special symbol A, 2R special symbol B, 4R special symbol A, 4R special symbol B, and 16R special symbol AF. Depending on the type, the subsequent gaming state and the variation pattern selection mode are associated with each other.

As shown in the figure, when the winning type is 2R special symbol A, the gaming state control means 180 maintains the gaming state after the winning game as the same state as the current gaming state. That is, the 2R special symbol A is a hit that does not cause a change in the gaming state. In this way, as described above, the 2R special symbol A is a “small hit” because it is difficult to obtain a substantial prize ball in the winning game and does not cause any change in the gaming state. Sometimes called.
When the winning type is 2R special symbol A, the gaming state control means 180 maintains the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game as the changing pattern selection mode before the winning game.
When the winning type is the 2R special symbol B, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to the gaming state of the usual low certainty probability game. In addition, the probability change game after the winning game is continued until the result of the next special drawing lottery becomes a winning. In addition, it is good also as a structure which continues until a 1st special figure lottery or a 2nd special figure lottery is performed a predetermined number of times after the winning game ends, for example.
Further, since the gaming state after the 2R special symbol B is a non-time-saving game, the electric tulip 63 is rarely opened. Is not attached, and is sometimes called, for example, “per latent”.
When the winning type is 2R special symbol B, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the normal variation pattern table selection mode.

When the winning type is the 4R special symbol A, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to a gaming state with a short time gaming and a low probability of special drawing. The short-time game after the winning game continues until the total number of times of the first special drawing lottery and the second special drawing lottery reaches 80 times.
When the winning type is the 4R special symbol A, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the short time variation pattern table selection mode.
When the winning type is the 4R special symbol B, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to the gaming state of the short-time game and the probability-changing game. In addition, the short-time game and the probability-changing game after the winning game are continued until the result of the next special drawing lottery is won.
When the winning type is the 4R special symbol B, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the short time variation pattern table selection mode.
Since the game state after 4R special symbol A and 4R special symbol B is a short-time game, both the electric tulips 63 are frequently opened and the production mode described later is also common. The internal state (special figure low accuracy or special figure high accuracy) cannot be distinguished from the release frequency of 63 or the display on the effect symbol display device 50.
On the other hand, if the short-time game exceeds 80 times, it is determined that the hit type that triggered the short-time game was 4R special symbol B, and the player It can be recognized that it continues until the result of the special drawing lottery becomes a hit.

When the winning type is the 16R special symbol A, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to the gaming state of the short-time game and the probability-changing game. In addition, the short-time game and the probability-changing game after the winning game are continued until the result of the next special drawing lottery is won.
When the winning type is 16R special symbol A, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the special variation pattern table selection mode.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol B, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to the gaming state of the short-time game and the probability-changing game. In addition, the short-time game and the probability-changing game after the winning game are continued until the result of the next special drawing lottery is won.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol B, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the short time variation pattern table selection mode.
Both the 16R special symbol A and the 16R special symbol B are common in that the game state after the winning game is a short-time game and a probable variable game. The pattern table selection mode and the effect mode described later are different.

When the winning type is the 16R special symbol C, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to a gaming state with a short-time game and a low probability of special drawing. The short-time game after the winning game continues until the total number of times of the first special drawing lottery and the second special drawing lottery reaches 20.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol C, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the short time variation pattern table selection mode.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol D, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to a gaming state with a short-time game and a low probability of special drawing. In addition, the short-time game after the winning game continues until the total number of times of the first special drawing lottery and the second special drawing lottery reaches 40 times.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol D, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the time-varying variation pattern table selection mode.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol E, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to a gaming state with a short-time game and a low probability of special drawing. The short-time game after the winning game continues until the total number of times of the first special drawing lottery and the second special drawing lottery reaches 60 times.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol E, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the time-varying variation pattern table selection mode.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol F, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the winning game to a gaming state with a normal high probability and a special low probability. The short-time game after the winning game continues until the total number of times of the first special drawing lottery and the second special drawing lottery reaches 80 times.
When the winning type is the 16R special symbol F, the gaming state control means 180 switches the variation pattern selection mode after the winning game to the short time variation pattern table selection mode.
As described above, the hit types “16R special symbol C” to “16R special symbol F” are both common in that the game state after the hit game is a short-time game and a low special figure, but the upper limit of the short-time game (continuation) ) The number of times (20 to 80 times) is different from each other. The 16R special symbol B and the 16R special symbols C to F are both set to the common variation pattern selection mode and effect mode, and the opening frequency of the electric tulip 63 and the display on the effect symbol display device 50 are set. It is not possible to distinguish the internal state (special figure low accuracy or special figure high accuracy). On the other hand, if the short-time game exceeds 80 times, it is determined that the hit type that triggered the short-time game was the 16R special symbol B, and the player can perform the short-time game and the probable game next time. It can be recognized that it continues until the result of the special drawing lottery becomes a hit.

As described above, the gaming state control means 180 switches the gaming state after the end of the winning game according to the hit type set with a plurality of gaming states, and further selects the variation pattern table after the winning game according to the winning type. Switch modes.
In addition, as a specific switching process, a game state setting flag and a variation pattern table selection flag (not shown) provided in the RAM of the main controller 100 are switched during a hit game, a first special drawing lottery or a second This is executed by switching the game state setting flag and the variation pattern table selection flag based on the fact that the sum of the two special figure lotteries has reached a predetermined upper limit number of times (number of short-time games).
In addition, main controller 100 transmits an effect mode transition command to sub control device 200 simultaneously with the switching of the game state setting flag and the variation pattern table selection flag, and causes the effect mode to be shifted. The effect mode transition command and the effect mode will be described later.

Next, the fluctuation display control means 130 shown in FIG. 3 will be described. The variation display control means 130 determines the variation times of the first special symbol and the second special symbol by electronic lottery from among a plurality of types of variation times. The variation time of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is also used as the variation time of the effect symbol S.
As shown in the figure, the fluctuation display control means 130 includes a special symbol fluctuation pattern lottery means 131 for determining the fluctuation time of the first special symbol or the second special symbol, and the special symbol fluctuation pattern lottery means 131. Determines the variation time of the first special symbol and the second special symbol.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, the special symbol variation pattern lottery means 131 sets the value of the loop counter within a predetermined range (the real number) based on an interrupt signal periodically (for example, every 2 milliseconds). In the embodiment, the special figure fluctuation pattern random number generating means 132 for generating a special figure fluctuation pattern random number that is a software random number by updating each by 1 in the range of an integer of 0 to 99), the first start winning opening 61, or Triggered by the winning of a game ball at the second start winning port 62 (the game ball detection signal from the first start winning port detection sensor 91 or the second start winning port detection sensor 92 is input to the main control device 100) A special figure fluctuation pattern random number acquisition means 133 for acquiring (latching) a special figure fluctuation pattern random number generated by the special figure fluctuation pattern random number generation means 132; Based on the random number for the special figure variation pattern acquired by the means 133, the first special symbol or the second special symbol with reference to any one of the normal variation pattern table 134A, the short time variation pattern table 134B, or the special variation pattern table 134C. Based on special game fluctuation pattern selection means 134 for selecting the fluctuation time of the game ball and the winning of the game ball to the first start winning port 61 or the second start winning port 62 during the change of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. When the figure fluctuation pattern random number acquisition means 133 acquires the special figure fluctuation pattern random number, the random number for special figure fluctuation pattern is stored separately using the RAM of the main controller 100 up to a predetermined upper limit number. Means 135. Note that the upper limit of the special figure variation pattern random numbers that can be stored on hold is the same as the upper limit of the above-mentioned random number for determination of validity.
That is, the special figure variation pattern random number is a random number acquired together with the above-mentioned special figure success / failure determination random number and the hit type determination random number when the first start winning opening 61 or the second start winning opening 62 is won. .

  The normal variation pattern table 134A, the short time variation pattern table 134B, and the special variation pattern table C are a random number for the special diagram variation pattern and a variation time of the first special symbol or the second special symbol and the production symbol S (hereinafter simply referred to as variation time). ).

As shown in FIG. 9, when the current variation pattern selection mode set by the gaming state control means 180 is the normal variation pattern table selection mode, in other words, the normal variation pattern table 134A is the current gaming state. Is a table that is referred to in the case of ordinary low probability (non-short-time game).
The short time variation pattern table 134B is used when the current variation pattern selection mode set by the above-described gaming state control means 180 is the short time variation pattern table selection mode, in other words, when the current gaming state is a short time game. It is a table that is referred to.
Further, the special variation pattern table C indicates that when the current variation pattern selection mode set by the gaming state control means 180 is the special variation pattern table selection mode, in other words, the current gaming state is 16R special symbol A. This table is referred to in the case of a short-time game and a probabilistic game brought about by.
The special figure variation pattern selection means 134 refers to any one of the above variation pattern tables based on the current variation pattern selection mode set by the gaming state control means 180, and extracts and determines the variation time.

In the variation pattern table 134C-1 for special game lose, a plurality of variation times are defined corresponding to the random numbers for the special symbol variation pattern, as described above.
Specifically, the variation time “4 seconds” is associated with the special symbol variation pattern random numbers 0 to 80, and the variation time “48.5 seconds” is associated with the special symbol variation pattern random numbers 81 to 99. .
In addition, in the variation pattern table 134C-2 for special game referred to when the variation pattern selection mode is the special variation pattern table selection mode and the result of the special symbol lottery is a win, random numbers 0 to 99 are set. The fluctuation time “62 seconds” is associated.

As described above, the special figure lottery result is a loss, and the normal game lose pattern variation pattern table 134A-1 referred to when the normal variation pattern table selection mode is selected, and the special figure lottery result is a loss. And, when the time variation pattern table selection mode is selected, the time variation game variation pattern table 134B-1, which is referred to, and the special drawing lottery result is a loss, and the special variation pattern table selection mode is selected. When the average variation time defined in the special game loss variation pattern table 134C-1 referred to is compared, it is referred to in the short variation pattern table selection mode and the special variation pattern table selection mode in which the gaming state is a short-time game. Fluctuation pattern table 134B-1 for short game loss, special game loss The variation pattern table 134C-1 is set so that the average variation time is shorter than the variation pattern table 134A-1 for normal game loss referred to in the normal variation pattern table selection mode in which the gaming state is the non-gaming state. Has been.
Accordingly, when the gaming state is a short-time game, the result of the special drawing lottery is lost by referring to the short-time game variation pattern table 134B-1 or the special game loss variation pattern table 134C-1. The variation time of the first special symbol or the second special symbol of will be greatly shortened, and when the game state is a short-time game, compared to the case where the game state is low probability (non-short-time game) Thus, the number of special drawing lotteries executed per unit time will increase.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9 (c), the variation pattern table 134C for special games referred to when the variation pattern selection mode is the special variation pattern table selection mode and the result of the special drawing lottery is a win. -2 defines only the fluctuation time of “62 seconds”.
Therefore, when the variation pattern selection mode is the special variation pattern table selection mode, in other words, when the gaming state is the short-time game and the probability variation game brought about by the 16R special symbol A, the result of the special diagram lottery is a hit. In this case, the variation time of the first special symbol or the second special symbol and the production symbol S for reporting the hit is always determined to be 62 seconds. As described above, the variation time specified in the variation pattern table 134C-2 for special game referred to when the variation pattern selection mode is the special variation pattern table selection mode and the result of the special figure lottery is winning. Is set to the same scale, it is possible to limit the type of effect display by the fluctuating effect determination means 240 provided in the effect display control means 210 described later to a specific type.
The types of variation pattern tables are not limited to those described above. For example, a table that is referred to when the number of reserved determination random numbers stored is three, a table that is referred to when four is stored, and the like are provided. The variation time until the first special symbol or the second special symbol is derived and displayed as the number of reserved memories increases may be gradually shortened. Moreover, the selection rate of each special figure variation pattern shown in the figure is an example, and the selection rate of the variation time can be appropriately set by changing the selection rate.

Information extracted by the above-described special symbol determination lottery means 110 by the main control device 100, the winning type determination process, and the variation time determination process by the variation display control means 130 (whether determination information, winning type information, The variation time information) is transmitted to the sub-control device 200 side as an effect symbol variation command including the information, and the sub-control device 200 that has received the command controls the effect symbol display device 50, thereby drawing a special symbol lottery ( The result of the first special figure lottery or the second special figure lottery) is notified by the display mode (stop mode) of the effect symbol.
The main control device 100 also performs the variation display processing of the first special symbol display device 40A or the second special symbol display device 40B based on the information extracted by the success / failure determination processing, the hit type determination processing, and the variation time determination processing. Is executed, and the first special symbol or the second special symbol is variably stopped in a manner that indicates the result of the success / failure determination process after the fluctuation time has elapsed.
In addition, main control apparatus 100 transmits an effect symbol variation stop command to sub control device 200 as the variation time elapses, and causes sub control device 200 to perform variation stop processing of effect symbol S.
Thereby, when the fluctuation time has elapsed, the first special symbol or the second special symbol is derived and displayed substantially in synchronization with the effect symbol S. Further, when the result of the determination process is either one, main controller 100 transmits a hit game start command to sub-control device 200 together with the effect symbol variation stop command. Receiving the command, the sub-control device 200 derives an unillustrated hit game start image on the effect symbol display device 50 indicating that the hit game is started on the effect symbol display device 50 before the hit game starts. Then, the player is notified that the hit game is started. The winning game start command includes winning type information, and based on the winning type information, the mode continuation number counting means 250, which will be described later, counts the number of continuations of the mode.

Hereinafter, the sub-control device 200 will be described.
The sub control device 200 controls the speaker 8, the lamp 10, and the effect symbol display device 50 based on various commands transmitted from the main control device 100. In addition, the sub-control device 200 has an effect display control unit 210 that drives the effect display device 50 and executes a predetermined effect operation. Note that description of specific control means for the speaker 8 and the lamp 10 is omitted.

  The effect display control means 210 outlines the result information (result of the first special figure lottery or the second special figure lottery) that is information included in the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100, and the hit type. The effect symbol S displayed on the effect symbol display device 50 on the basis of the information and the variation time information is displayed in a time varying manner corresponding to the variation time information, and predetermined based on the result information and the winning type information as the variation time elapses. The effect mode changing means 220 for stopping in the stop mode and the effect mode selecting means 230 for changing the effect mode based on the effect mode transition command transmitted from the main control device 100 and selecting the effect background corresponding to the effect mode. And the presence / absence of reach of the above-described production symbol S, the reach design, and the variation table of the production symbol S based on the fluctuation time information and the current production mode. Includes a fluctuation effect determination unit 240 for determining the effect display (presentation patterns) to be deployed, a mode continuation number count section 250 counts the number of continuations of a specific effect mode described below (hyper drone chance mode) with. Hereinafter, each means with which the production | presentation display control means 210 is provided is demonstrated.

The effect symbol variation means 220 determines the stop mode (combination) of the effect symbols S to be stopped and displayed after the lapse of the variation time based on the contents of the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100. Specifically, when the result information is “winning” and the winning type information is “16R special symbol A”, the effect design changing means 220 sets “333” or “ The combination of numbers “777” is determined as the stop symbol of the effect symbol S.
On the other hand, in the effect symbol variation means 220, the success / failure result information is “hit”, and the hit type information is “2R special symbol A”, “2R special symbol B”, “4R special symbol A” other than 16R special symbol A, In the case of “4R special symbol B” or “16R special symbol B to F”, “111”, “222” excluding “333” or “777” after the lapse of the fluctuation time (60 seconds, 90 seconds) , “444”, “555”, “666”, “888”, “999”, a combination of specific characters, or the like is randomly determined (by lottery) as the stop symbol of the production symbol S.
Thus, when the winning type is a winning type other than the 16R special symbol A, by randomly determining the combination of the effect symbols S, the player has a winning number of the same type (2R, 4R, 16R). Even if it is a type, it becomes impossible to grasp the subsequent gaming state from the combination of the production symbols S, and it can give the player a thrilling feeling that it does not know how long the probability change game or the short-time game will continue, It is possible to increase the interest of the game.
On the other hand, when the combination of the production symbols S is “333” or “777”, the hit type is the 16R special symbol A, and the game state after the hit game is a short-time game and a probable change game. Since the player can be convinced of this, when the effect symbol S starts to change, the player strongly desires that the combination of the effect symbols S that are finally stopped and displayed is “333” or “777”.

  When the result of the first special drawing lottery or the second special drawing lottery is lost, the production symbol changing means 220 is a reach lose eye “121” or “454” in which only the central number or character is different from the other two, The random numbers “135”, “579”, etc. with different numbers and characters are determined by electronic lottery so that the stop symbol of the production symbol S becomes a stop symbol. Note that whether or not “reach” occurs during the change, and the reach symbol in the case of “reach” are determined by the change effect determination means 240 described later.

Next, the production mode selection means 230 will be described.
The effect mode selection unit 230 includes an effect mode storage unit 230A and an effect background pattern storage unit 230B, and changes a plurality of effect modes based on an effect mode transition command transmitted from the main control device 100. Set the production background corresponding to each mode. The effect mode transition command is simultaneously transmitted from the main controller 100 when the gaming state is switched by the gaming state control means 180 described above.
The production mode transition command includes production mode information to be changed and the number of times the mode is continued (the number of times the short-time game is continued), and the production mode selection means 230 stores the production mode based on the production mode information. The effect mode information stored in the means 230A is updated.
The effect mode storage means 230A is a storage area provided in the RAM of the sub-control device 200, and is executed by switching effect mode information (effect mode flag) when an effect mode transition command is received.

Hereinafter, the production mode will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating a plurality of hit types set, a presentation mode that shifts after a winning game, and a possible gaming state in the shifted presentation mode.
As shown in the figure, the production mode A (normal mode) shifts (stays) when the first special figure or the second special figure is not acquired or when another production mode is finished. If the player is in the mode and stays in the normal mode, the possible gaming state is usually low and special.
Therefore, during the stay in the normal mode, the player aims to acquire the first special figure or the second special figure as soon as possible. However, it is difficult to acquire the second special figure because it is usually low probability (non-short game) during the normal mode, and the player has the goal of acquiring only the first special figure. .

The production mode B (hyper-drone chance mode) is a mode for shifting (staying) when the hit type per the first special figure or the second special figure is the 16R special symbol A. When staying in the hyper-drone chance mode, the possible gaming state is a short-time game that is continued until the next winning game is acquired and is highly accurate.
That is, in this mode, it is determined that the next winning game (16R special symbols A to F) is substantially acquired, so that the player has the most advantageous psychological state compared to the other effect modes. You can wait for a game.
In addition, when staying in the mode, the next winning type is 16R special symbol A, in other words, the combination of effect symbols S stops at “333” or “777”, and after the next winning game Staying in hyperdron chance mode is most desirable for players. Therefore, while staying in the hyper-drone chance mode, the player expects a so-called villa that repeatedly wins the winning game, and strongly desires that the hyper-drone chance mode be repeated after the winning game. Become.
In addition, since the hyper drone chance mode is a short-time game, if the player hits the second starting winning opening 62 provided on the right side of the game board 30 while staying in the mode, the game is substantially Therefore, it is possible to receive only the second special drawing lottery without reducing the number of game balls.

Production mode C (Oshioki challenge mode) is transitioned when the hit type per 1st special figure or 2nd special figure is 4R special symbol A, 4R special symbol B, or 16R special symbol BF It is a mode to (stay). If you are staying in the special challenge mode, the possible gaming states are short-time games (any of 20 to 80 times) and low-priced special times, or short-time games that continue until the next winning game and Special figure is highly accurate.
In other words, since the mode is a state in which a plurality of game states are mixed, if the previous winning game is a 4R or 16R winning game, the player can select the hit type that triggered the winning game. Is a 4R special symbol B or a 16R special symbol B, and it becomes a psychological state in which a game is played while hoping that the current game state is a short-time game and a probable change game that continues until the next winning game acquisition.
More specifically, as the number of times a short-time game continues increases through the stages of 20, 40, 60, and 80, the possibility of a short-time game that continues until the next winning game is increased. If the short-time game exceeds 80 times, it can be confident that the short-time game will continue until the next winning game is acquired, and at the same time, it can be sure that the game is a probabilistic game.
On the other hand, if the number of times of the short-time game is ended at 20, 40, 60, 80 or less, it is difficult to obtain the next winning game substantially in comparison with the probability change game. It is confirmed that it is certain.
That is, in the special challenge mode, the number of times the short-time game is continued is positioned as an important element for predicting the internal game state. Each time the player reaches the upper limit of the number of continuations of the short-time game in which the number of games (the number of the first special drawing lottery or the second special drawing lottery) is set during the stay in the special challenge mode, Is watched and watched the production symbol display device 50 while wishing to continue (to reach the next upper limit).

The production mode D (latency suggestion mode) is a mode for shifting (staying) when the hit type per the first special figure is the 2R special symbol A or the 2R special symbol B. When staying in the latent suggestion mode, a possible game state is a normal low probability and special low probability or a normal low probability and a probability change game that continues until the next winning game.
In other words, since the mode is a state in which a plurality of game states are mixed, as in the above-described special challenge mode, if the previous winning game is a 2R winning game, the player The 2R special symbol B is the trigger type of the game, and a psychological state in which a game is played while wishing that the current game state is usually low-specific and high-special.
However, during the latent suggestion mode, it is usually inaccurate (non-short game), so it is practically difficult to acquire the second special figure, and as in the normal mode, the player exclusively uses the first special figure. The goal is to win.

  The effect mode selection means 230, based on the effect mode information stored in the effect mode storage means 230A, effect background data (moving image data, image data, etc.) corresponding to the current effect mode from the effect background pattern storage means 230B. And the read data is displayed as an effect background displayed on the effect symbol display device 50.

FIG. 13A shows an effect background when the player is staying in the hyper-drone chance mode in which the player is in the most preferential psychological state, in other words, substantially determined to acquire the next winning game. FIG. 13B shows an effect background when the player is staying in the sneaking challenge mode including the case where the game state is a probability change game.
As shown in FIG. 13 (a), as the production background when staying in the hyper-drone chance mode, a moving image showing how a specific character is played is developed. In addition, when staying in the hyper drone chance mode, an effect display dedicated to the hyper drone chance mode is developed by the fluctuating effect determining means 240 described later, and the player observes the whereabouts of the effect display next time. It becomes possible to wait while being thrilled and excited whether the production mode after hitting the game again becomes the hyper-drone chance mode or the mode changes to the moderation challenge mode.
On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 13B, a moving image indicating that a specific character is running on the vehicle is developed as the effect background when the user is staying in the moderate challenge mode.
In this way, by making the effect backgrounds different from each other according to the effect mode during the stay, the player who has visually recognized the effect symbol display device 50 stays depending on the type of moving image developed on the effect symbol display device 50. It is possible to recognize the production mode in the middle, and thus it is possible to predict the internal gaming state according to the production mode.
In addition, although description is abbreviate | omitted, also about other production modes (normal mode, latent suggestion mode), the production background peculiar to each is similarly set, and a player can see what production mode by seeing the set production background. You can see if you are staying.

Next, the variation effect determining means 240 will be described. The variation effect determination means 240 displays various effect displays executed during the variation display of the effect symbol S based on the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100 and the current effect mode. Determine at random.
The variation effect determination means 240 includes an effect determination random number generation means 241, an effect determination random number acquisition means 242 that acquires the effect determination random number generated by the effect determination random number generation means 241 simultaneously with the reception of the effect symbol change command, and The effect pattern tables 245A to 245C divided for each effect mode are provided. By referring to the effect pattern tables 245A to 245C, the effect display corresponding to the variation time information is randomly determined (by random lottery). .
The effect determination random number generator 241 sets the value of the loop counter to 1 within a predetermined range (in the present embodiment, an integer range of 0 to 9) based on an interrupt signal periodically input (for example, every 2 milliseconds). By updating each of them, a random number for effect determination, which is a software random number, is generated. The effect determination random number acquisition means 242 acquires one effect determination random number from the random numbers generated by the effect determination random number generation means 241 based on the reception of the effect design change command.
The variation effect determination means 240 determines one effect display corresponding to the variation time by comparing the acquired effect determination random number with the effect pattern tables 245A to 245C.
Hereinafter, the effect pattern table will be described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 10E. In the following description, the effect pattern table 245A referred to in the hyperdron chance mode most relevant to the present invention will be described in detail. The description of the effect pattern tables 245B and 245C referred to in other effect modes is omitted.

As shown in the figure, the effect pattern table 245A referred to in the hyper drone chance mode is divided into a loss effect effect pattern table 245A-1 and a winning effect pattern table 245A-2.
Further, the winning effect pattern table 245A-2 further includes a winning effect pattern table 245A-2A that is referred to when the hit type is 16R special symbol A and a hit type other than 16R special symbol A (mainly 16R special symbol A). It is divided into winning effect pattern tables 245A-2B referred to in the case of symbols B to F).
Further, the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A referred to when the winning type is the 16R special symbol A is the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 to 245A having different effect display ratios (selection rates). -2A-5. Hereinafter, each effect pattern table will be described.

The lost effect pattern table 245A-1 defines the variation time, the effect determination random number, and the effect display (effect contents, reach mode) associated with the change time and the effect determination random number. For example, when the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100 is “4 seconds”, the variation effect determination means 240 has the variation time “4” regardless of the type of the effect determination random number. “Normal stop” and “no reach” associated with “second” are extracted and determined as effect display.
When the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100 is “48.5 seconds”, the variation effect determination means 240 has an effect determination random number in the range of 0 to 49. In this case, “effect pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach)” and reach (reach symbol) “3 or 7” are extracted and determined as effect display.
In addition, when the random number for determining the effect is in the range of 50 to 74, the variation effect determining means 240 extracts “effect pattern B (Dokuhan Reach)” and reach (reach symbol) “other than 3 and 7” to display the effect. Determine as. Moreover, when the random number for effect determination is in the range of 75 to 99, the variation effect determination means 240 extracts “effect pattern C (cue chance reach)” and reach (reach symbol) “other than 3 and 7”, It is determined as an effect display.
As shown in the figure, when the variation time is “48.5 seconds”, the ratio that the production display is determined to be the Yatter Mecha Reach is equal to the ratio that is determined to be the Dokhan Reach or the Cuin Chance Reach and is 50%. .

The winning effect pattern table 245A- is included in the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first time hit) that is referred to when the winning type is the 16R special symbol A in the winning effect pattern table 245A-2. Similarly to 1, the change time and the effect determining random number, and the effect display (effect contents, reach mode) associated with the change time and the effect determining random number are defined.
When the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100 is “62 seconds”, the variation effect determination means 240 displays “effects” when the effect determination random number is in the range of 0 to 89. Pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach) "and reach (reach symbol)" 3 or 7 "are extracted and determined as effect display.
Further, when the random number for determining the effect is in the range of 90 to 94, the variation effect determining means 240 extracts “effect pattern B (Dokuhan Reach)” and reach (reach symbol) “other than 3 and 7”, and displays the effect. Determine as. Moreover, when the random number for effect determination is in the range of 95 to 99, the variation effect determination means 240 extracts “effect pattern C (cue chance reach)” and reach (reach symbol) “other than 3 and 7”, It is determined as an effect display.
As shown in the figure, when the hit type is 16R special symbol A and the variation time is “62 seconds”, the ratio that the production display is determined to be Yatter Mecha Reach is 90%, and the Dokhan Reach or Cure Opportunity The percentage determined for reach is 10%.

  The winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first hit) is a table that is referred to until the first hit game is acquired after staying in the hyper-drone chance mode. In other words, when the user stays in the hyper drone chance mode for the first time, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win and the win type is determined to be 16 special symbols A, the effect display developed on the effect display device 50 Becomes “production pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach)” with a probability of 90%.

Of the winning effect pattern table 245A-2, the winning effect pattern table 245A-2B referred to when the winning type is other than the 16R special symbol A varies in the same manner as the lost effect pattern table 245A-1. A time and an effect determining random number, and an effect display (effect contents, reach mode) associated with the variation time and the effect determining random number are defined.
For example, when the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command transmitted from the main control device 100 is “62 seconds”, the variation effect determination means 240 “effect pattern B” regardless of the type of the effect determination random number. (Dokuhan Reach) ”and reach (reach symbol)“ other than 3 and 7 ”are extracted and determined as effect display.
That is, when staying in the hyper drone chance mode, if the winning type is other than the 16R special symbol A, the effect display is always determined to be “effect pattern B (Docker Reach)”. In this way, “effect pattern B (Dochan Reach)” is an effect pattern that is always selected when the hit type is other than 16 special symbol A, so that the player can select the effect pattern other than 16R special symbol A. In other words, in other words, when the combination of the production symbols S is a combination other than “3” or “7”, it is recognized as a pattern that tends to be selected.

The winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-2 (for the second hit) referenced when the hit type shown in FIG. 10C is the 16R special symbol A is the first 16R special during the hyper-drone chance mode stay. This is a table that is referred to after the symbol A is acquired and before the second winning game is acquired. That is, until the first 16R special symbol A is obtained after staying in the hyper-drone chance mode, the above-described winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first hit) is referred to, but after the first hit game, the next time Until the winning game of winning (the second winning game) is acquired, the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-2 (for the second time) is used instead of the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first time hit). Referenced.
In the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first time hit) and the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-2 (for the second time hit), both the variation time, the effect determining random number, and the variation time Although it is common in that the effect display (effect contents, reach mode) associated with the random number for determining the effect is defined, the selection ratio of the specific effect display is different.

Specifically, when the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first time hit) is referred to, the ratio of the effect display determined as Yatter Mecha Reach is 90%, whereas the winning effect is When the pattern table 245A-2A-2 (for the second time) is referred to, the ratio that the production display is determined to be the Yatter Mecha Reach has decreased to 50%, and conversely, the Dokhan Reach or Cure Opportunity was 10%. The percentage of reach is increased to 50%.
Similarly, as shown in FIGS. 10D to 10F, after the second 16R special symbol A is acquired while staying in the hyperdron chance mode, it is referred to until the third hit game is acquired. Winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-3 (for 3rd hit), win for the 4th hit game after acquiring the 3rd 16R special symbol A while staying in hyperdron chance mode Effect pattern table 245A-2A-4 (for the 4th time), while the hyperdron chance mode stays, after acquiring the 4th 16R special symbol A, the winning effect pattern that is referred to before acquiring the 5th time of winning game As for table 245A-2A-5 (for the fifth hit), the ratio of the effect display determined to Yatter Mecha Reach gradually decreases, The ratio determined for reach or cure chance reach is gradually increasing, and the final display (after the fifth round) is determined to be 20% for the production display to be determined by Yatter Mecha Reach, and it is determined to be Dochan Reach or Cure Chance Reach. The ratio is 80%.

  In other words, the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment repeatedly obtains the 16R special symbol A in which the post-game directing mode is again the hyper-drone chance mode when staying in the hyper-dronchan mode that the player expects most from the reaming resort (reams) When the hit type is 16R special symbol A, the effect display displayed on the effect symbol display device 50 tends to be an effect pattern B (Docker Reach) or an effect pattern C (Cuin chance reach). The player who has visually recognized the effect pattern B (Dokuhan Reach) or the effect pattern C (Cuin chance reach) whose reach symbol is determined to be other than “3” or “7” on the effect symbol display device 50 is hyperdron. Chance mode, in other words, a game state where it is determined that the next winning game will be substantially acquired ( Short game and probability variation game) is or not than if you quit, pounding while maintaining a sense of anxiety that, so that the watch the effect display while suspenseful.

Next, while explaining specific examples of the above-described production patterns A to C, psychological situations such as the expectation and the throbbing feeling held by the player will be described.
FIG. 14 is a diagram simply showing the flow of effect display when the effect mode is the hyper-drone chance mode. As shown in the figure, when the effect pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach) is selected by the change effect determining means 240, a specific character A appears after a lapse of a predetermined period from the start of change of the effect symbol S, and the appearance of the character A At the same time, the reach symbol S is formed by the number “3” or “7” (S1).
The reach is a state in which, for example, the left and right effect symbols S are stopped and displayed in advance by the same number or character, and the remaining center effect symbols S are the same as the numbers or characters that have been previously stopped and displayed. If it is stopped and displayed with numbers or characters, it is a state that indicates that the result of the special drawing lottery (the first special drawing lottery or the second special drawing lottery) is a win.

FIG. 15A is an example of the effect display when the effect pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach) is selected and the character A appears and reaches the reach state. As shown in the figure, in the effect display, the character A is displayed at the center, and the effect symbol S (“7”) is stopped and displayed in front of the character A.
The player who has visually recognized the effect display can safely watch the whereabouts of the effect display when the character A appears and when the effect symbol S (“7”) forms a reach in front of the character A. it can.

  That is, if the effect symbol S is “7” and the reach is formed, at least the possibility that the hit type is a type other than the 16R special symbol A is excluded, and the effect symbol S that is stopped and displayed as the variation time elapses. It can be convinced that the combination of is “777” in which the effect mode after the winning game is a hyper drone chance, or “767”, “787” when the result of the special drawing lottery is lost. In other words, when the character A appears or when the production symbol S (“7”) forms a reach, there is a possibility of transitioning (falling) to the witty challenge mode including a gaming state that may be disadvantageous for the player. Therefore, the player again waits for the display of the remaining effect symbol S to be stopped with a very high expectation for the consecutive resort where the effect mode becomes a hyper drone chance.

  Returning to FIG. 14, after the character A appears and the effect symbol S is formed by the number “3” or “7” simultaneously with the appearance of the character A, the effect pattern of this variation is “Yatter Mecha Reach”. The reach-specific character A that notifies the player of this fact is displayed (S2). FIG. 15B is a diagram showing an example of a reach-specific character A that appears when the production pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach) is selected. The reach-specific character A is positioned as a character on the player side (a friend side), and the character and the enemy character shown in FIG. 13 (a) battle each other. The combination of is displayed.

  As shown in FIG. 14, after the reach-specific character A appears, the effect design S is stopped and displayed in a mode showing the result of the special drawing lottery together with the image display indicating the result of the battle after the predetermined battle performance (S3, S3). S4).

FIG. 15C shows an example of a combination of the effect display and the effect symbol S displayed when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss. As shown in the figure, if the result of the special drawing lottery is lost, the enemy character that is the opponent of the above-mentioned reach-specific character A remains standing (the state is alive) In addition, the combination of the production symbols S displayed at the upper left is stopped and displayed in a mode “787” indicating that the result of the special drawing lottery is lost. With the effect display, the player recognizes that the result of the special drawing lottery has been lost, and starts the subsequent game again.
Note that the variation time (48.5 seconds) defined in the special game loss variation pattern table 134C-1 in FIG. 9C and the effect pattern A (Yatter mechanism) defined in the loss effect pattern table 245A-1 are shown. As is clear from the relationship of (reach), the variation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is lost, in other words, the production time by the production pattern A is 48.5 seconds.

On the other hand, FIGS. 15D and 15E show an example of the combination of the effect display and the effect symbol S displayed when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win. As shown in FIG. 15D, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, a plurality of characters including the above-mentioned character A are displayed in the center, and further, the battle with the above-mentioned enemy side character is performed. “Victory” is displayed to notify that the player has won.
After that, as shown in FIG. 15E, the effect symbol S is stopped and displayed in front of the plurality of characters in a manner indicating that the result of the special symbol lottery is (16R special symbol A). ("777"). The player can confirm that the result of the special drawing lottery is a winning and the winning type is the 16R special symbol A by visually recognizing the effect display shown in FIGS. 15 (d) and 15 (e). . More specifically, it can be confirmed that the effect mode after the hit game becomes the hyper-drone chance mode again.
It should be noted that the variation time defined in the variation pattern table 134C-2 for special games in FIG. 9C and the effect pattern A (defined in the effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (2-5) for winning). As is clear from the relationship of Yatter Mecha Reach), the variation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, in other words, the production time by the production pattern A is 62 seconds.

Next, returning to FIG. 14, the case where the effect pattern B (Docker Reach) or the effect pattern C (Cuin chance reach) is selected by the change effect determining means 240 will be described.
As shown in the figure, when the production pattern B (Dochan Reach) or the production pattern C (Cuin chance reach) is selected, the specific character A is different from the above-mentioned specific character A after a predetermined period has elapsed since the start of the fluctuation of the production design S. The character B appears, and at the same time as the appearance of the character B, a reach is formed by numbers or characters other than the numbers in which the production symbol S is “3” and “7” (S10).

FIG. 16A is an example of an image display when the production pattern B (Docker Reach) or the production pattern C (Cuin chance reach) is selected and the character B appears and reaches a reach state. As shown in the figure, in the effect display, the character B is displayed in the center, and further, for example, the effect symbol S (“8”) is stopped and displayed in a state where the reach is formed.
The player who visually recognizes the image display is compared with the case of the above-described effect pattern A (Yatter Mecha Reach) at the time when the character B appears and further when the effect symbol S ("8") forms a reach. The whereabouts of the effect display will be watched with anxiety.

That is, the fact that the effect symbol S is “8” and the reach is formed includes the possibility that the hit type is a type other than the 16R special symbol A, and the combination of the effect symbol S that is stopped and displayed as the variation time elapses. However, when the post-game directing mode is a combination other than “333” and “777” in which the special challenge mode is set, or when the result of the special drawing is lost, for example, “878” and “898”. Can be detected.
In other words, when the character B appears or when the production symbol S (“8”) forms a reach, there is a possibility that the player may shift to the deer-challenge challenge mode including a gaming state that may be disadvantageous for the player. Therefore, the player waits for the stop display of the production symbol S that remains in a state of anxiety that the production mode shifts (falls) from the hyper-drone chance to the big challenge mode.

Further, as is clear from S10 of FIG. 14, the actual hit type determined by the special drawing lottery is selected regardless of whether the production pattern B (Dochan Reach) or the production pattern C (Cuin chance reach) is selected. Regardless of the fact that the character B always appears and the production symbol S is reached by a number or character other than “3” or “7”, the player can reach when the character B appears or the production symbol S. At the time of forming the reach, he always feels anxious that he may shift to the modest challenge mode, but at the same time, the production symbol S will eventually be " At the same time, there is a sense of expectation that a stop display may be made at “3” or “7”.
In other words, production pattern B (Dochan Reach) or production pattern C (Cuin Chance Reach) has a common character B that suggests that the production mode may shift to a production mode that is unfavorable for the player (Oshio Challenge Mode). In addition, by forming a reach other than “3” and “7”, it is a performance pattern that greatly enhances the throbbing feeling and harassment that the player has.

  Returning to FIG. 14, when the production pattern is production pattern B (Dochan Reach), character B appears, and at the same time as the appearance of character B, production design S forms a reach with numbers or characters other than “3” and “7”. After that, the reach-specific character B for notifying the player that the effect pattern of this variation is “Docker Reach” is displayed (S11).

  FIG. 16B is a diagram showing an example of a reach-by-reach character B (a reach-by-reach character that is the same as the character B in the figure) that appears when an effect pattern B (Docker Reach) is selected. The reach-specific character B is positioned as an enemy character, and for example, in the middle of the production pattern for the numbers or characters other than “3” and “7” on the left and right that have been stopped in advance (formed reach) by the character. An effect of gradually bringing S (“1” in the illustrated example) closer (from “1” to “8”) is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 14, reach-by-reach character B shown in FIG. 16 (b) appears, and at the end of the effect of gradually bringing the central effect symbol S closer to the numbers or characters other than “3” and “7”. The effect symbol S is stopped and displayed in a manner showing the result of the special drawing lottery (S12, S13).

FIG. 16C shows an example of a combination of an effect display and an effect symbol S that are displayed when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss. As shown in the figure, when the result of the special drawing lottery is lost, the combination of the production symbol S indicates that the result of the special drawing lottery is lost in front of the image display of the mark imitating the skull. The display is stopped in the mode “878”. By this display, the player recognizes that the result of the special drawing lottery has been lost, and starts the subsequent game again.
The variation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is lost, in other words, the production time by the production pattern B is 48.5 seconds.

  On the other hand, FIG. 16D shows an example of a combination of the effect display and the effect symbol S displayed when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win. As shown in FIG. 16D, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, the effect symbol S stops in a manner indicating that the result of the special drawing lottery is a win ahead of the character B by reach. Is displayed (“888”).

  Returning to FIG. 14, the production pattern is production pattern B (Dochan Reach), and the production symbol S (for example, “888”) stopped and displayed in front of the character B by reach indicates that the result of the special drawing lottery is a win. If it is an aspect, a re-lottery effect is displayed following the effect shown in FIG. 16 (d) (S14).

FIG. 16E is an example of an effect display showing a re-lottery effect. In the re-lottery effect, a display indicating that the re-lottery effect of “FINAL CHANCE” is executed is displayed in front of the already-stopped effect symbol S (“888”), and “3” is displayed to the player. Alternatively, a sense of expectation that the combination of the effect symbols S (“888” in the illustrated example) that is stopped and displayed other than “7” may be changed to the combination of “3” or “7” is notified.
In the re-drawing effect, for example, after “FINAL CHANCE” is displayed, a number is gradually counted down. When the player presses the button 9B until the countdown ends, the final combination of the effect symbols S is displayed. indicate. On the other hand, when the button 9B is not pressed, the final combination of the effect symbols S is displayed after a predetermined time has elapsed.

As shown in FIG. 14, after the re-lottery effect, the effect symbol S is stopped and displayed in a manner indicating the result (special type) of the special drawing lottery (S15, S16).
FIG. 16 (f) shows an image display when the combination of effect symbols S is switched from “888” to “777” and displayed when the player presses the button 9 </ b> B. As shown in the figure, when the result of the special drawing lottery is winning and the winning type is 16R special symbol A, the combination of the effect symbols S finally derived is “333” or “ 777 ”, the combination of the effect symbols S other than“ 3 ”or“ 7 ”is changed to the combination of the effect symbols S of“ 3 ”or“ 7 ”after the re-lottery effect.
After the re-lottery effect, the effect symbol S stopped and displayed in the “888” combination shown in FIG. 16D before the re-lottery effect, in other words, the effect symbol S that ends the hyper-drone chance mode is the hyper-drone chance mode. By changing to the combination “777” of the effect symbol S that continues the game, the player can recognize that the hyper drone chance mode continues again.
Note that the variation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, in other words, the production time by the production pattern B is 62 seconds.

On the other hand, FIG. 16 (g) shows an image display when the combination of the effect symbols S is not switched from “888” even when the player presses the button 9 </ b> B. As shown in the figure, when the result of the special drawing lottery is winning and the winning type is other than the 16R special symbol A, the combination of the effect symbols S finally derived is “333” or Since it is a combination of numbers or characters other than “777”, the combination of the production symbol S is not changed before and after the re-lottery production.
By the re-lottery effect, the player can maintain the effect symbol S stopped and displayed in the combination of “888” shown in FIG. 16 (d) before the re-lottery effect without being changed. , You can recognize that it will shift (drop) to the witty challenge mode.
In addition, the fluctuation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss, in other words, the production time by the production pattern B is 48.5 seconds.

Next, returning to FIG. 14, the case where the effect pattern C (Cue Chance Reach) is selected by the change effect determining means 240 will be described.
As shown in the figure, in S10, after the character B appears, the production pattern S is formed with a number or character other than the numbers “3” and “7”, and then the production pattern of this variation is “Cuin. A reach-by-reach character C that informs the player that it is “chance reach” is displayed (S20).
Also, in S20, at the same time as the appearance of the character B at the time of S10, the production symbol S that has formed the reach by the numbers or characters other than “3” and “7” is simultaneously displayed with the appearance of the character C by reach. Switch to reach with numbers "3" or "7".

In FIG. 17 (a), the production pattern C (Cuin chance reach) is selected, and after the appearance of the character B, the reach of “8” is changed to the reach of “7” simultaneously with the appearance of the character C by reach. It is an example of the effect display in the case. As shown in the figure, in the effect display, the character C is displayed in the center, and further, the effect symbol S (“7”) is stopped and displayed above the reach.
The player who has visually recognized the effect display can safely watch the direction of the effect display when the reach-specific character C appears and when the effect symbol S ("7") forms a reach. be able to.

  In other words, the fact that the production symbol S is changed to “8” and the reach is formed with “7” means that at least the possibility that the winning type is a type other than the 16R special symbol A is excluded, and the stoppage is made with the elapse of the fluctuation time. The combination of the effect symbols S to be displayed is, for example, “767”, “787” when the effect mode after the winning game is “777” where the hyper-drone chance is given or the result of the special drawing lottery is “lost”. I can be sure. In other words, in the same manner as when the character A of Yatter Mecha Reach appeared, it may be disadvantageous for the player when the reach-by-reach character C appears or when the production symbol S ("7") forms a reach. Since there is no possibility of shifting to the witty challenge mode including the gaming state, the player again displays the stop display of the production symbol S that remains in a state in which the production mode has a very high sense of expectation per villa where the production mode becomes a hyper-drone opportunity. I will wait. In other words, the cure chance reach is positioned as a “recovery reach” for the dokuhan reach with the same route (system).

  More specifically, when the player visually recognizes the character B in the above-described S10, the player is in a state of anxiety that the production mode may shift (fall) from the hyper-drone chance to the casual challenge mode. However, the appearance of the character C by reach and the reach of the production symbol S ("7") are formed, so that the player can eliminate the possibility that the hit type is other than the 16R special symbol A, The combination of the production symbols S that are stopped and displayed as the variation time elapses is “777” in which the production mode after winning the game is a hyper drone chance or the result of the special drawing lottery is “767”, We can be confident that it will be “787”.

  As shown in FIG. 14, after the reach-by-reach character C appears, the effect symbol S is stopped and displayed in a manner indicating the result of the special drawing lottery together with a predetermined effect display (S21, S22).

FIG. 17B shows an example of the combination of the effect display and the effect symbol S displayed when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss. As shown in the figure, when the result of the special drawing lottery is lost, the combination of a plurality of characters and the production symbol S displayed on the upper left of the plurality of characters is a result of the special drawing lottery being lost. It is stopped and displayed in a mode “787” indicating that there is. With the effect display, the player recognizes that the result of the special drawing lottery has been lost, and starts the subsequent game again.
It should be noted that the variation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss, in other words, the production time by the production pattern C is 48.5 seconds.

On the other hand, FIG. 17C shows an example of a combination of the effect display and the effect symbol S displayed when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win. As shown in FIG. 17 (c), when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, an explosion cloud simulating a skull shape is displayed in the center, and the effect symbol S is displayed in front of the special drawing lottery. Is stopped and displayed in a manner indicating that it is a win (16R special symbol A) ("777"). The player can confirm that the result of the special drawing lottery is winning and the winning type is 16R special symbol A by visually recognizing the effect display shown in FIG. More specifically, it can be confirmed that the effect mode after the hit game becomes the hyper-drone chance mode again.
Note that the variation time when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, in other words, the production time by the production pattern C is 62 seconds.

As described above, a plurality of effect patterns (reach patterns) during staying in the hyper drone chance mode according to the present embodiment have been described. In short, the effect pattern A is not selected for types other than the 16R special symbol A. It is a production pattern.
When the player stays in the hyperdron chance mode, the player can visually recognize the character A at the start of the production pattern A so that the special drawing lottery is lost, but at least the production mode is from the hyperdron chance mode. You can be confident that there will never be a transition (falling) to the mode.

  The effect pattern B is an effect pattern selected when the hit type is a type other than the 16R special symbol A. Then, when the player stays in the hyper-drone chance mode, the player can visually recognize the character B at the start of the production pattern B, so that the production mode may shift (fall) from the hyper-drone chance mode to the grace mode. Perhaps, after the appearance of character B, the direction of the production will be watched while sharing the expectation that character C by reach may appear.

  The effect pattern C is an effect pattern that is not selected for types other than the 16R special symbol A. And while a player has the above-mentioned feeling of anxiety by visually recognizing character B at the start of the production pattern C when staying in the hyperdron chance mode, the player visually recognizes the character C by reach after the appearance of the character B. Although there are cases in which the special drawing lottery is lost, it can be assured that at least the production mode will not shift (fall) from the hyper-drone chance mode to the grace mode.

And when the result of the special drawing lottery is a win, the distribution ratio of each of the effect patterns A to C is switched according to the above-mentioned number of consecutive resorts and is referred to as a hit effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 to 245A. Based on -2A-5, it is determined by the changing effect determination means 240.
That is, when the first winning game with the 16R special symbol A is acquired during staying in the hyperdron chance mode, the effect display by the effect pattern A that gives the player a sense of security is preferentially executed.

On the other hand, after winning the first hit game with the 16R special symbol A per hit when staying in the hyper-drone chance mode, the hit game with the hit type 16R special symbol A in the second and subsequent hyper-drone chance modes. When acquired, the effect pattern B or the effect pattern C is easily selected every time the consecutive villas are overlapped, and the effect display by the effect pattern B or the effect pattern C that tends to give anxiety to the player is executed. .
In the present embodiment, by changing the selection rate of the effect pattern in the specific effect mode according to the number of consecutive games, the player is always given a sense of tension when staying in the specific effect mode, and during the game I keep my throbbing and irritating feeling lasting.

  Next, the mode continuation count counting unit 250 will be described. The mode continuation count counting means 250 is configured so that the current play mode is the hyper-drone chance mode and the hit type information included in the hit game start command transmitted from the main control device 100 at the start of the hit game is “16R special symbol”. It is a counter on software or hardware that adds 1 to the number of mode continuations based on being A ”and stores it. The mode continuation number counted by the mode continuation number counting unit 250 (the number of continuations of the hyperdron chance mode) is referred to by the above-described variation effect determination unit 240.

For example, when an effect symbol variation command whose hit type information is 16R special symbol A is received from the main control device 100 and the mode continuation count stored in the mode continuation count count means 250 is “0”, the variation effect determination means 240. Refers to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 (for the first time hit) in which the selection ratio to Yatter Mecha Reach is set to 90%, and determines the effect pattern.
Further, when the mode continuation count stored in the mode continuation count counting means 250 is “1”, the variation effect determination means 240 has the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A in which the selection ratio to the Yatter Mecha Reach is set to 50%. -2 (for the second hit) is determined, and the production pattern is determined.
Similarly, when the number of mode continuations stored in the mode continuation count counting means 250 is “2”, “3”, “4”, the changing effect determination means 240 gradually decreases the selection ratio to the Yatter Mecha Reach respectively. Effect pattern table 245A-2A-3 (for the third time); 245A-2A-4 (for the fourth time); 245A-2A-5 (for the fifth time); To decide.
When the number of mode continuations stored in the mode continuation count counting means 250 exceeds “4”, the subsequent effect pattern is determined using the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-5 (for the fifth hit). refer.

  Thus, based on the number of consecutive resorts (mode continuation number) stored by the mode continuation number counting unit 250 when the variation effect determination unit 240 stays in the hyper drone chance mode, the winning effect pattern table is determined according to the number of times. By referring to 245A-2A-1 (for first time) to effect pattern table for winning 245A-2A-5 (for the fifth time), and further determining the effect pattern from each effect pattern table for each hit, As the number of times increases, it is possible to increase the possibility that an effect pattern (docking reach or cure chance reach) that gives the player a sense of tension is executed.

Hereinafter, with reference to the flow of FIG. 18, an effect pattern determination process by the sub control device 200 including the change effect determination means 240 and the mode continuation count counting means 250 will be described in order.
The sub-control device 200 determines whether an effect symbol variation command has been received in S100. If YES, the process proceeds to S101, and if NO, the process ends.

  In S101, the sub control device 200 acquires the effect determination random number by the effect determination random number acquisition means 242, and proceeds to S102.

In S102, the sub control device 200 determines whether or not the current effect mode is the effect mode B (hyperdron chance). If YES, the process proceeds to S103, and if NO, the process ends. This determination is made based on the effect mode information (effect mode flag) stored in the effect mode storage means 230A provided in the effect mode selection means 230 described above.
When the result of the determination is NO, that is, when the effect mode is effect mode A; C; D, the effect pattern is determined based on the effect pattern table 245B; 245C (not shown).

  In S103, the sub-control device 200 determines whether or not the result of the lottery determination is a win based on the result information included in the effect symbol variation command. If YES, the process proceeds to S104, and if NO, the process proceeds to S122. .

  In S104, the sub-control device 200 determines whether the winning type is the 16R special symbol A based on the winning type information included in the effect symbol variation command. If YES, the process proceeds to S105, and if NO, the process proceeds to S120. To do.

  In S105, the sub control device 200 adds 1 to the number of continuations of the mode continuation count unit 250, and proceeds to S106. This process is executed based on the fact that the result of winning / not-winning lottery is a win and the winning type is 16R special symbol A when staying in the production mode B by the process from S102 to S104.

In S106, the sub-control device 200 determines whether or not the number of mode continuations is 1. If YES, the sub-control apparatus 200 proceeds to S107, and if NO, the process proceeds to S109. This determination is executed by referring to the value of the mode continuation count counting unit 250 described above.
The sub-control device 200 refers to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 in S107, and in subsequent S108, extracts and determines an effect pattern corresponding to the effect determining random number acquired in advance in the process of S101, and performs processing. Exit. In addition, the selection rate with which the production patterns B and C are selected in the processing is 10% as described above.

  In S109, the sub-control device 200 determines whether or not the number of mode continuations is 2. If YES, the sub-control apparatus 200 proceeds to S110, and if NO, the process proceeds to S112. In S110, the sub control device 200 refers to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-2, and in subsequent S111, extracts and determines the effect pattern corresponding to the effect determining random number acquired in advance by the process of S101, and performs processing. Exit. In addition, the selection rate with which the production patterns B and C are selected in the processing is 50% as described above.

Thereafter, the sub-control device 200 determines an effect pattern by referring to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-3 to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-5 corresponding to the number of mode continuations by the processes of S112 to S119. To finish the process.
As is apparent from the above description, the processes of S104 to S119 are performed by referring to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-1 to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2A-5 according to the number of mode continuations. This is a process of increasing the rate at which the production patterns B and C that give anxiety are selected, in other words, the rate at which the production patterns B and C are selected every time the number of mode continuations increases. Thus, the player can enjoy the effect display developed in the effect mode B with a sense of tension at all times.

Next, the process of S120 executed when the determination of S104 is NO will be described.
The sub-control device 200 refers to the winning effect pattern table 245A-2B in S120, and in S121, extracts and determines the effect pattern corresponding to the effect determining random number acquired in advance in the process of S101, and ends the process. To do. Since the process is a process executed when the hit type is other than the 16R special symbol A, the selected effect pattern is always the effect pattern B.

Next, the process of S122 executed when the determination of S103 is NO will be described.
In S122, the sub control device 200 refers to the lost effect pattern table 245A-1, and proceeds to S123.
In S123, the sub-control device 200 determines whether the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command is “4 seconds”. If YES, the process proceeds to S124, and if NO, the process proceeds to S125.

  In S <b> 124, the sub control device 200 determines the effect pattern to be normally stopped regardless of the effect determination random number acquired in advance because the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command is “4 seconds”.

  In S125, since the variation time information included in the effect symbol variation command is “48.5 seconds”, the sub-control device 200 extracts and determines an effect pattern corresponding to the effect determination random number acquired in advance. Exit. In addition, since the said process is a process performed when the result of a lottery is a loss, final presentation display is shown in FIG.15 (c), FIG.16 (c), and FIG.17 (b). Either display.

  As described above, according to the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the selection rate of the effect patterns A to C in the specific effect mode B is gradually changed as the number of mode continuations increases, and more specifically, the player Since the frequency at which the production pattern A that gives a sense of security is gradually reduced according to the increase in the number of mode continuations, the player can produce the production pattern on the production symbol display device 50 when staying in the specific production mode B. Each time the effect display by B and C is performed, the effect is always watched with a sense of tension, and the interest of the game is improved.
