Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine.

  There are various known gaming machines that execute predetermined effects based on the time measured by the time measuring means (see, for example, Patent Document 1 below).

Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2013-31690

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is to improve the taste of a gaming machine provided with time measuring means.

  In the gaming machine according to the present invention made to solve the above problems, a time measuring means for measuring a time until a specified time is reached or an end condition is satisfied, and a time measured by the time measuring means is the specified time Whether the specific effect is to be executed based on the number of times of the specific condition which is different from the end condition and which is satisfied due to the player's action until the specified time is reached. And D. determining means for determining whether or not it is determined.

  Since the gaming machine according to the present invention is configured such that the establishment of the specific condition resulting from the player's action during the prescribed time leads to the generation of the specific effect, it enhances the convincingness of the game during the prescribed time It is possible.

  The hit game to be executed when the success or failure judgment is successful is to repeat a unit game in which the hit winning area in the closed state is in the open state until the predetermined closing condition is established, one or more times, and the closing condition It is set that at least one of them has reached a predetermined number of gaming balls that have won a prize in the winning prize area, and at least one of the specified conditions is satisfied in the winning prize area in the unit game. It is preferable that the number of game balls exceeding the predetermined number is set to be won.

  With such a configuration, it is possible to create a game in which a joy for the satisfaction of the specific condition is generated, as well as a joy for the game balls exceeding a predetermined number in a unit game to be won.

  As at least one of the establishment of the specific condition, it may be set that notification of a predetermined number of success / failure determinations has been completed.

  With such a configuration, it is possible to promote the player's willingness to play.

  A special gaming state is set which is a state in which the winning probability of success or failure judgment is higher than that of the normal gaming state continuously until the success or failure judgment is not selected, and the time by the time measuring means is set during the special gaming state. It is preferable that it is set that the determination of success or failure is successful as at least one of establishment of the specific condition.

  In the special game state (during the state of ST) which continues until the pass / fail judgment is continuously canceled a predetermined number of times, when the hit / fail judgment is a win at a relatively early stage (a stage where the number of consecutive loses is relatively small), The player may feel as if he or she somehow loses because the number of success or failure judgments until the end of the special game state is left. However, according to the above configuration, as the earlier the game is hit, the digestion time of the prescribed time becomes shorter, so it is possible to reduce the discomfort due to such feeling.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to improve the taste of a gaming machine provided with time measuring means.

It is a front view of a game machine concerning this embodiment. It is a figure for demonstrating the flow from a staging effect to a result presentation. It is a figure showing an example in which a specific condition is satisfied triggered by a jackpot win, and (a) to (c) show a case where a jackpot is won with a relatively small remaining rotation speed of ST, (d) (F) shows the case in which the jackpot was won with a relatively large remaining rotation speed of the so-called ST. It is the figure which showed the example in which specific conditions are satisfied triggered by the game ball having won a start winning a prize mouth in the state where reservation information is full. It is a figure showing an example in which a specific condition is fulfilled triggered by the occurrence of over winning during a big hit game.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of a gaming machine 1 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. First, the entire configuration of the gaming machine 1 will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

  The gaming machine 1 comprises a gaming board 90. The game board 90 is formed of substantially square plywood, and the guide rails 903 forming a passage for guiding the game balls fired by the operation of the launch device 908 (launch handle) to the game area 902 have a substantially arc shape. It is provided as.

  In the game area 902, the start winning opening 904 (corresponding to the start winning area in the present invention. The start winning opening 904 in this embodiment has a configuration in which the game ball is taken inside by winning, but the game area It may have a configuration such as a flowing gate), a large winning opening 906 (corresponding to a winning region in the present invention), an out opening 907 and the like. The display area 911 of the display device 91 is an area that can be viewed through the opening 901 formed in the game board 90. 2 to 4 describe the display area 911 roughly, but the shape and the like can be changed as appropriate (the shape and size of the opening 901, and the shape and size of the display device 91 itself can be changed) Shape and the like of the display area 911 can be changed).

  Further, in the game area 902, a plurality of game nails are provided as obstacles that change the flow-down mode of the game balls by collision of the game balls flowing down. The game balls flowing down the game area 902 change in various manners according to the conditions at the time of collision with the game nail.

  In such a gaming machine 1, by operating the launcher 908, the gaming ball is launched toward the gaming area 902. When a game ball flowing down the game area 902 wins a winning opening such as the start winning hole 904 or the big winning hole 906, a predetermined number of winning balls are paid out by the payout device.

  Description of the components of the gaming machine 1 not related to the present invention, such as the frame of the gaming machine 1, the lower tray for storing gaming balls, and the upper tray, is omitted. About these, the thing of the structure similar to a well-known game machine is applicable.

  The jackpot lottery (judgment judgment) is executed when the judgment unit provided on the control board (not shown) is triggered by the winning of the game ball to the start winning opening 904 (even if a plurality of such start winning openings are provided) However, in the following description, the symbol "904" is attached to all types of start winning openings. Specifically, a numerical value is acquired from a random number source triggered by the game ball's winning on the start winning hole 904, and if the numerical value is the same as a predetermined jackpot value, it becomes a big hit, and if different. It becomes a loss. When the jackpot is won, the jackpot game is executed. In the big hit game, basically, the big winning opening 906 is frequently opened, and the player can obtain many game balls (so-called balls).

  The jackpot game in this embodiment will be described. In the jackpot game, unit games (so-called jackpot rounds) are repeated. In the unit game, the big winning opening 906 in the closed state is in the open state until the closing condition is established. Various conditions can be considered as closing conditions. In the present embodiment, a major winning is achieved when one of the conditions is satisfied that a predetermined number of gaming balls have won in the special winning opening 906 or a predetermined time has elapsed since the special winning opening 906 was opened. The mouth 906 is closed, and the unit game ends. Then, after a predetermined time has elapsed, the next unit game is started.

  Any structure may be used to switch between the closed state and the open state of the special winning opening 906. For example, an opening and closing member 906a (see FIGS. 1 and 5) provided on the front side or upper side of the big winning opening 906 is configured to be displaced between a closed position closing the big winning opening 906 and an opening position opening. Can be illustrated. The jackpot game is ended by executing such a unit game a predetermined number of times. All the big hit games in the present embodiment are ended by executing the unit game 15 times (15 rounds is a big hit). However, this is merely an example. A plurality of jackpots having different numbers of unit games may be set.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the jackpot is won, the game is shifted to the probability fluctuation state (corresponding to the special gaming state in the present invention) after the jackpot game is over. The probability fluctuation state is a state in which the winning probability of the jackpot lottery (lottery when the game ball is won in the start winning opening 904) is higher than the normal gaming state. Therefore, it can be said that the probability fluctuation state is more advantageous for the player than the normal gaming state (a state in which the probability of winning the jackpot lottery is lower than the probability fluctuation state). Note that the probability fluctuation state in the present embodiment is also a state in which the gaming ball is more likely to be won in the start winning opening 904 than in the normal gaming state, that is, a so-called well-known time reduction gaming state.

  The gaming machine 1 in the present embodiment is a so-called ST machine, and the probability fluctuation state continues continuously a predetermined number of times until the pass / fail judgment is released. That is, as long as the jackpot is won before the predetermined number of acceptance judgment lotterys are executed, the probability fluctuation state continues (with the jackpot game in between). The so-called ST remaining number (number of success / failure determinations until the probability fluctuation state ends) or the like may be displayed on the display area 911 of the display device 91 (see FIG. 2 and the like).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the probability change state is entered after the end of all the big hit games, but the part may be changed into the probability change states after the end of the big hit game.

  The success / failure determination result is notified to the player by a combination of not-shown identification symbols displayed in the display area 911 of the display device 91, as in the case of a known gaming machine. The identification symbol starts to change with the start of notification of the result of the pass / fail judgment. If the identification symbol is stopped in a predetermined combination (for example, three sets of the same symbol), it will be a big hit, otherwise it will be lost.

  In the gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, the effect is controlled using the time measuring means 10 during the probability fluctuation state. The time measuring means 10 is provided on a sub control substrate (a substrate on which a circuit for controlling various effects is constructed) not shown. In the present embodiment, the time measuring means 10 starts measuring time in response to entering into the probability fluctuation state. Hereinafter, a state in which time is measured by the time measuring unit 10 may be referred to as a time measurement mode. An image that indicates the time measurement mode may be displayed on the display area 911 of the display device 91 in order to indicate or notify the player that the mode is in progress. In addition, the time measured by the time measuring unit 10 may be displayed on the display area 911 of the display device 91 (see FIG. 2 and the like). The said time may display real time (for example, 1 second measured by the time measurement means 10 is displayed as 1 second as it is), and the real time was compressed (short) or extended (long) A virtual time may be displayed (for example, one second measured by the time measuring unit 10 may be displayed as one minute). The unit of time to be displayed may be any unit. Further, the display mode of time may be a count-up method or a count-down method.

  The time measuring means 10 measures time until the specified time 11 is reached or the end condition is satisfied. The specified time 11 is a time serving as an opportunity for determining whether or not a victory effect 31 whose details will be described later occur. The length of the specified time 11 can be set as appropriate. The length of the specified time 11 may be constant, or may be variable. The specified time 11 in the present embodiment is set to 10 minutes. On the other hand, the end condition is a condition under which the time measurement mode is ended without reaching the condition for determining whether or not the win effect 31 is generated. In this embodiment, it is set that the probability fluctuation state ends as the end condition. That is, in the probability fluctuation state, it is set that the pass / fail judgment is continuously canceled a predetermined number of times. Other termination conditions may be set. If the end condition is satisfied before the specified time 11 is reached, the time measurement mode is ended.

  The measurement of time by the time measuring means 10 may be performed intermittently or may be performed continuously. In this embodiment, measurement of time is started triggered by rushing to the probability fluctuation state, but when the jackpot is won during the time measurement mode, measurement of time is temporarily suspended during the jackpot game. It may be performed (measurement of intermittent time) or measurement of time may be performed continuously (measurement of continuous time) including during the big hit game. In the present embodiment, measurement of time is temporarily stopped during the jackpot game. That is, measurement of time is stopped triggered by rushing into the big hit game, and measurement of time is resumed triggered by shifting to the probability fluctuation state again after the big hit game is over. Therefore, the time measured by the time measuring means 10 in the present embodiment is started from the start of the probability fluctuation state rushed through the jackpot (so-called first hit) won during the normal gaming state, and the jackpot game is again held In the case of entering into the fluctuation state, it can be said that it corresponds to the sum of the times in the respective probability fluctuation states occurring across the jackpot game.

  During the time measurement mode, an effect dedicated to the mode (hereinafter, referred to as a progress effect 20) is continuously executed (see FIGS. 2A and 2B). The content of the progression effect 20 changes as appropriate depending on the situation in the time measurement mode. The content of the progress effect 20 may be any, but the progress effect 20 in the present embodiment is an effect having a soccer game as a motif. When the time measured by the time measuring means 10 reaches the specified time 11, the soccer game is over, and the victory effect 31 (the effect that the team on the player side has won; this is the result of the effect; 2 (c) or a defeat effect 32 (effect such that the player's team has lost) (see FIG. 2 (d)). That is, when the specified time 11 is reached, a result effect 30 indicating the result of the progress effect 20 is executed. In addition, after result presentation 30 is performed, measurement of time by the time measurement means 10 is started again, ie, it is good also as composition which enters into time measurement mode. In the case where the time measurement mode may be continuously entered, a special effect may be generated when the win effect 31 as a specific effect occurs a plurality of times.

  In the progress effect 20, the content (how the effect (a soccer game) progresses) is determined according to the establishment of the specific condition 21. In the present embodiment, the establishment of the specific condition 21 is set as a requirement that the probability of the progress effect 20 progressing in a direction pleasing to the player is high. That is, according to the present embodiment, the presentation proceeds so that the player's team receives a score (determines a goal) when the specific condition 21 is satisfied (see FIG. 2B). In the present embodiment, an effect (not shown) in which a score is given to the opposing team is executed when conditions other than the specific condition 21 are met. That is, as the specific condition 21 is satisfied (the number of times the specific condition 21 is satisfied), the probability that the player's team wins (the probability that the victory effect 31 occurs) is set to be higher. . Finally, depending on the number of times the specific condition 21 is established (in other words, according to the progress of the progression effect 20), it is determined whether or not the victory effect 31 is generated.

  In addition, various conditions can be considered as a condition in which an effect (progress which is disadvantageous to the player) in which a score is given to the team of the opponent is generated. For example, when a predetermined time is reached after the measurement of time by the time measurement means is started, a predetermined lottery is executed, and when the lottery is won (or deviated), the opposing team receives a score An aspect can be considered in which a presentation is performed. Further, as another example, it may be considered that a lottery is performed to determine whether or not an effect such that an opponent team as described above is scored will be performed each time the qualification determination is performed a predetermined number of times. The lottery may be performed with the same probability of winning as the big hit lottery every time the success or failure is determined. As described above, in the case where it is determined whether or not to execute an effect in which the opponent team is scored based on the lottery result, the lottery probability differs according to the type of the opponent team (“strength” of the opponent team The lottery probability may differ depending on the situation).

  However, the setting is just an example. As the specific condition 21 is satisfied (the number of times the specific condition 21 is satisfied), the probability that the player's team wins is higher, that is, the victory effect 31 (specific effect) is more likely to occur. It should just be set to. For example, a lottery (a winning probability may be constant or may change) may be triggered by the establishment of the specific condition 21 and when the lottery is won, the progression effect 20 is on the player side It is also possible to set such that the game proceeds in an advantageous manner (the player's team enters the score) and if the lottery is missed, the progression effect 20 proceeds disadvantageously to the player (the opponent's team enters the score). . In this case, if the probability of winning the lottery when the specific condition 21 is satisfied is made greater than 50% (if the lottery winning probability is changed, the winning probability of each lottery is generally 50%. The higher the specific condition 21 is established, the higher the probability that the player's team will win, ie, the higher the probability that the victory effect 31 will occur. In any case, whether or not the victory effect 31 (specific effect) is to be generated is determined based on the number of times the specific condition 21 is satisfied (determines whether or not the relevant victory effect 31 (specific effect) is to be generated. The means corresponds to the determining means in the present invention). In other words, based on the number of times the specific condition 21 is satisfied, the content of the result effect 30 as the result of the progress effect 20 is determined.

  Various items can be set as the specific condition 21. However, since the player tries to play the game with the aim of establishing the specific condition 21, the specific condition 21 needs to be satisfied directly or indirectly due to the player's action. . That is, a condition that is automatically established even if the player does nothing is not set as the specific condition 21. In the present embodiment, the following items are set as the specific condition 21. A condition other than the example shown below may be set as the specific condition 21, or only a part of a plurality of examples shown below may be set as the specific condition 21. Alternatively, the player may be notified or suggested that the specific condition 21 is satisfied by displaying a predetermined image in the display area 911 of the display device 91, or such notification or suggestion does not occur. It is good also as composition like this.

As shown in FIGS. 3 (a) to 3 (c) and 3 (d) to 3 (f), winning on the jackpot is set as the condition for establishing the specific condition 21. As shown in FIG. The progress effect 20 in the present embodiment is executed in the time measurement mode, that is, in the probability change state, so it is easy to win a jackpot (compared to the normal game state). Based on this, it is preferable to set a jackpot win as the specific condition 21.

  With such a configuration, it is possible to create a game in which a pleasure for the specific condition 21 is established (a double pleasure occurs) in combination with the pleasure for winning the jackpot. In addition, since the player wants to win the jackpot quickly, it is possible to promote the game.

  In particular, in the present embodiment, the time measurement mode is executed during the probability fluctuation state (in the so-called ST state) which continues until the pass / fail judgment is continuously released a predetermined number of times. In such an ST state, when the jackpot is won at an early stage where the number of consecutive consecutive outs is relatively small, the player somehow loses the loss because the number of judgments of success until the probability fluctuation state ends is left. You may feel like you did. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 3 (compare the cases shown in FIGS. 3A to 3C with the cases shown in FIGS. 3D to 3F), FIG. In the case of winning the jackpot in the stage of FIG. 3 (d), the player is more likely to determine the probability fluctuation status until the probability fluctuation state ends than in the case of winning the jackpot in the stage of). There is a high probability that you feel like you have lost something somehow. However, according to the above configuration, the more specific the condition 21 is established in a shorter time as the earlier the game is hit, the shorter the digestion time of the regulation time 11, and thus the feeling is like this. It is possible to reduce the discomfort. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 3, the case shown in FIGS. 3 (d) to 3 (f) is more successful than the case shown in FIGS. 3 (a) to 3 (c). Since the remaining time after establishment of the specific condition 21 as a trigger becomes long, it is possible to reduce the discomfort.

  In the present embodiment, the time is measured by the time measuring means 10 during the probability fluctuation state, and is not performed during the jackpot. Then, the progression effect 20 is executed during the time measurement mode. In such a configuration, the progress effect 20 is advanced according to the establishment of the specific condition 21 triggered by the winning of the jackpot after the measurement of time is resumed after the jackpot game is over. It is good to see (refer to FIG. 3 (b) (c) and FIG. 3 (e) (f)). On the other hand, when the time is measured during the big hit game and the progress effect 20 is executed, the progress effect 20 according to the establishment of the specific condition 21 triggered by the winning of the big hit. Progress can be made to occur during a jackpot game.

-A game ball is won in the start-up winning opening when the hold information is full The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment stores hold information 50 (so-called hold; corresponding to information related to the pass / fail judgment in the present invention). A storage means (not shown) is provided. As described above, when the game ball is won in the start winning opening 904, a numerical value for determination of success or failure will be acquired from a random number source, but when a certain numerical value is acquired, it is earlier than that When notification of the success or failure determination result based on the acquired numerical value is performed, the notification is stored in storage means provided on a control board (not shown) until notification of the success or failure determination result based on the certain numerical value is started. The said numerical value is memorize | stored in a memory | storage means as a pending | holding information 50 by the predetermined number as a limit. The maximum number of storages of the hold information 50 (maximum hold number) can be set as appropriate. The number of the maximum hold information 50 that can be stored in the storage means in the present embodiment is four for each type of start winning opening 904. Then, at the time when the notification of the result of the judgment of qualification is started, it is judged whether or not the acquired numerical value is a numerical value for making a big hit. That is, when presentation (variation display of identification symbol) for informing the result of judgment of qualification is started, the pending information 50 is referred to whether the target result of judgment of probability becomes a big hit or not. Is determined.

  Therefore, when a predetermined number of pending information 50 is stored in the storage means, that is, when the gaming ball is won in the start winning opening 904 when the pending information 50 is full, the above numerical value is not obtained triggered by the relevant prize. . In other words, it is not possible to receive a pass / fail judgment (however, if the winning balls are set to be generated in accordance with the winning, the winning balls are obtained). Therefore, in general, it is not possible for the player to be satisfied that the game ball wins the start winning opening 904 when the hold information 50 is full, since it is not possible to receive a pass / fail judgment triggered by the prize. is not.

  However, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C (especially as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C), the game ball wins with the reserve information 50 full. If the specific condition 21 is set, the specific condition 21 is satisfied by the winning, so that it is possible to reduce the wit of not being able to receive the pass / fail judgment by the winning.

  In the case where a plurality of types of start winning openings 904 are provided, the present specification can be applied to only one or more types of specific starting winning openings 904. That is, it is set as a requirement for establishment of the specific condition 21 that the game ball wins when the hold information 50 corresponding to a specific start winning opening 904 is full, and the other specific conditions for the start winning opening 904 are the specific condition 21. Can be configured not to hold. For the specific start winning opening 904, it is preferable to set the starting winning opening 904 for the player to aim at when the time measurement mode is generated. For example, in the gaming machine provided with the start winning opening 904 of the so-called special view 1 and the starting winning opening 904 of the so-called special view 2, the player plays the game ball in the start winning opening 904 of the special view 2 during time measurement mode. This rule may be applied only to the start winning opening 904 of the special figure 2.

As described above, the jackpot game according to the present embodiment is a unit game repeated, and the jackpot 906 in the closed state is a closing condition of the jackpot in the present embodiment. It will be in an open state. Then, as one of the closing conditions, it is set that a predetermined number of gaming balls have been won in the big winning opening 906. That is, basically, a predetermined number of gaming balls will be won in one unit game.

  As shown in FIG. 5, generally, the special winning opening 906 is provided with detection means 40 (such as a sensor) for detecting a winning of the gaming ball. In response to the fact that the number of winning game balls detected by the detection means 40 has reached a predetermined number, the special winning opening 906 is closed (the unit game is ended). Specifically, the opening and closing member 906a starts an operation of moving in the closing direction. In a unit game, between an event that a predetermined number of gaming balls win in the big winning opening 906 and an event in which the big winning opening 906 is closed (the opening and closing member 906a is completely closed) when it is detected There is some time lag. Therefore, the game ball may win a prize winning opening 906 during that time (see FIGS. 5 (b) and (c)). That is, in a unit game, gaming balls exceeding a predetermined number may be won in the large winning opening 906 (so-called over winning).

  In the present embodiment, the occurrence of such over winning is regarded as the establishment of the specific condition 21. It should be noted that the setting may be made such that one specific condition 21 is established for one event (the number of game balls for which an over-winning is not relevant) that an over-winning has occurred, or the number of over-winning gaming balls. It is also possible to set that the specific condition 21 is satisfied by (α when the number of winning in a certain unit game is “predetermined number + α”). In addition, normally, a large hit game may be repeated a plurality of unit games, it may be set that the specific condition 21 is established each time an over-winning occurs in each unit game, per one big hit game The maximum number of specific conditions 21 to be satisfied may be set (for example, only one specific condition 21 can be satisfied at most per one big hit game).

  With such a configuration, it is possible to create a game in which pleasure for the satisfaction of the specific condition 21 is produced (dual pleasure is produced), as well as pleasure for the game balls exceeding a predetermined number in a unit game to be won in unit game It is possible.

  In the present embodiment, the time is measured by the time measuring means 10 during the probability fluctuation state, and is not performed during the jackpot. Then, the progression effect 20 is executed during the time measurement mode. In such a configuration, the progress effect 20 is advanced according to the establishment of the specific condition 21 triggered by the occurrence of the over winning after the measurement of time is resumed after the end of the big hit game. You should On the other hand, when the time is measured during the jackpot game and the progress effect 20 is executed, the progress effect 20 can be made to occur each time the over winning occurs. .

The notification of the predetermined number of success / failure determinations is completed The specific condition 21 is satisfied by the increase in the number of the success / failure determinations executed with the game ball winning in the start winning hole 904 as an opportunity. Assuming that one change from start to stop of the identification symbol pattern is taken as one turn, and that completion is understood by the concept of “digestion”, it can be said that “the predetermined number of changes have been digested”. As described above, the probability fluctuation state in this embodiment is also a so-called time-saving gaming state in which the game ball frequently wins in the start winning hole 904, so the number increases in proportion to approximately time.

  With such a configuration, it is possible to promote the player's willingness to play since it is closer to the establishment of the specific condition 21 if the person who has received as many success or failure judgments as possible within the specified time 11 gets closer.

  Hereinafter, the modification of the above-mentioned embodiment is explained. In addition, it is good also as a structure which applied the modification demonstrated below independently, and it is good also as a structure which applied in combination.

First Modified Example Although the specific effect (winning effect 31) in the above embodiment has been described as having the possibility of occurring during the probability fluctuation state, what is the gaming state which may occur? It may be one. It may occur during the normal gaming state (during the low probability state). That is, the gaming state in which the measurement of the specified time 11 is performed by the time measuring means 10 may be any.

  It may be configured that there is a possibility that the special effect (wining effect 31) may occur in both the special gaming state different from the normal gaming state such as the probability fluctuation state and the normal gaming state. In this case, the time setting in the special gaming state and the normal gaming state, and the various effects performed, such as the specified time 11 set in the special gaming state and the specified time 11 set in the normal gaming state are different. Can be configured differently. For example, based on the fact that the establishment of the various specific conditions 21 described above can not be expected (the probability of being established is low) during the normal gaming state than during the special gaming state, the specified time 11 set during the normal gaming state is special It may be configured to be longer than the specified time 11 set during the gaming state. Also, conversely, the specified time 11 set in the normal gaming state may be shorter than the specified time 11 set in the special gaming state.

Second Modification In the above embodiment, it has been described that the progression effect 20 is executed with the start of the time measurement mode, but this kind of progression effect 20 may not be executed. That is, although the time is measured by the time measuring means 10, the effect performed during the measurement of the time is the same as when the time is not measured (however, it is measured by the time measuring means 10) If the time is displayed, the event that the time is displayed is excluded). Then, when the specified time 11 is reached, it is determined whether the specific effect is to be generated (the content of the result effect 30 is determined) based on the number of times the specific condition 21 is satisfied. For example, a lottery means for determining whether or not to generate a specific effect is provided, and the probability of winning in the lottery by the lottery means is set to be higher as the number of times the specific condition 21 is satisfied is larger.

Third Modification In the above embodiment, it has been described that measurement of time by the time measuring means 10 is started (time measurement mode is started) triggered by rushing into the probability fluctuation state.
