The jackpot start lottery means for executing the jackpot start lottery due to the jackpot, and immediately cancel the jackpot start standby state and start the jackpot game in the case of winning in the jackpot start lottery, and the second in the case of non-winning Big hit start time selection means to cancel the big hit start standby state and start the big hit game after waiting to enter the winning combination operation port and stop display with the small hit symbol as the predetermined combination, the small hit start effect Through the small hit game start means to start the small hit game to open the big winning opening , and the sub control means, even if either the big hit symbol and the small hit symbol stop display on the effect display device Pseudo shared per symbol And a pseudo shared per symbol display means for stopping displaying the effect until the ball entrance to the jackpot start waiting state in and first roles communicating actuating port, a Koatari start effect, first per executing at indistinguishable rendition A type jackpot effect execution means, a first jackpot start effect execution means for executing a first jackpot start effect based on entering a first winning run in the case of winning in a jackpot start lottery, a jackpot start lottery In the case of non-winning in the small hit start effect and perform the effect indistinguishable effect is performed, after the arrival of the time when the small hit game is over, at least the effect in the normal state different from the time of the big hit game Second hit type hiding effect execution means to execute the effect, and the second big hit start different from the first big hit start effect based on entering the second combination run opening in the case of non-winning in the big hit start lottery The second big hit start performance to carry out the production Further comprising execution means.

By configuring in this way, there is no such situation that the player wakes up in an instant when the big hit does not start even if entering the combination operation opening, and the expectation of the player can be maintained. it can.
In addition, when it becomes non-winning in the big hit start lottery, the big hit game does not immediately start by entering the first combination run opening, the big hit game suddenly by entering the second combination opening Since the game is started, it is possible to provide the player who has been once discouraged with an unprecedentedly interesting entertainment with a mix of surprise and pleasure.

In addition, the first combination run port and the second combination run port are not limited to the function as a trigger related to the start of operation of the continuous product operation device, so-called lottery of the number of big hit rounds in the big hit game based on entering balls It may be configured to perform. In this case, the opportunity to execute the big hit round number lottery is to enter the first combination run opening when winning in the big hit start lottery, and when not winning in the big hit start lottery, the second role It is desirable to be configured to enter the ball into the co-operation opening.
By configuring in this manner, the player enters the gaming ball into the first combination operating opening and the second combination opening, not only operating the bonus continuous operating device but also gaining an acquisition gain. By determining the number of rounds of the big hit game that has a large impact, it is possible to enhance the interest of the game.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, the main control means of the ball and ball game machine is shifted to the advantageous open extension state by extending the open time of the ordinary electric role after the big hit game is over. When the second special symbol is stopped and displayed with the big hit symbol, the lottery result of the big hit start lottery by the big hit start lottery means is not selected as non-winning, or the ball is entered into the first combination run opening You may make it start an instant big hit game regardless of the presence or absence of.

By configuring in this way, after the end of the big hit game, it will be shifted to the open extension state of the advantageous ordinary motorized role, and further, the second starting port consisting of the ordinary motorized role and the first arm combination operating port By being provided in the same right gaming area, it is possible to continue the right hitting, which is performed to start the big hit, even after the big hit occurs. Therefore, it is possible to release the player from the complexity of adjusting the launch strength and changing the right strike and the left strike each time a big hit occurs.
Also, in the case of a big hit due to the second special symbol being stopped and displayed in the big hit symbol, there is no chance of becoming a non-winning in the big hit start lottery, so during the open extension state of the advantageous ordinary motorized role, right There is no need to switch from hitting to hitting left, and the player is not bothered with changing the firing intensity. Further, since the right strike can be maintained until the end of the open extension state, the player can calmly enjoy the open extension state.
That is, since the large winning opening is also provided in the right game area, as in the second starting opening made up of the ordinary electric winning combination operated in the opening extension state, while the opening extension state continues through the big hit game The player is to hit the right regardless of whether the player is in the jackpot game or in the open extension state. Therefore, the player does not have to return the steering wheel to the right until the open extension state ends, and the player can enjoy playing the game without feeling annoyance.

  Incidentally, the invention according to claim 3 made in view of the above problem is a game area comprising a sizable right game area and a left game area, and a second winning combination operation port provided in the left game area. And a first starting opening provided in the left gaming area and capable of winning always, a second starting opening consisting of a large winning opening provided in the right gaming area, a first combination run opening, and a normal electric combination. (1) Execute determination of whether or not to make a big hit based on entering the ball into the starting opening or the second starting opening, and enter the ball into the first special symbol or the second starting opening by entering the ball into the first starting opening Corresponding to the variation display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol by the main control means to show the result of the acceptance or rejection determination by displaying the second special symbol by the variable display after stopping display in a predetermined combination after the variable display Ballistic ball game provided with sub control means for displaying effect display by effect display device It relates.

The rotation amount signal is output by the player operating the release handle, the touch signal is output by the player touching the release handle, and the release stop switch signal is generated by the player pressing the release stop switch 29. It is output. It should be noted that the game ball can not be fired unless a touch signal is input to the launch control device 84, and when the launch stop switch signal is input, the game sphere can not be launched even if the player touches the launch handle. It has become.

  The sub integrated control device 83 corresponds to the sub control device, receives data and commands transmitted from the main control device 80, distributes them to data for effect display control, sound control and lamp control, and effects Commands for display control and the like are transmitted to the effect symbol control device 82, and those for sound control and lamp control are distributed to control portions (functional portions as a voice control device and a lamp control device) included in itself. The function unit as the voice control device controls the sound output from the speaker by activating the sound LSI based on the data for voice control, and the function unit as the lamp control device is based on the data for lamp control The various LEDs and lamps 26 are controlled by operating the lamp driver. In addition, a rendering button 67 and a jog dial 68 are connected to the sub integrated control device 83, and when the player operates the rendering units 67 and 68, the signal is input to the sub integrated control device 83.

The sub integrated control device 83 and the effect symbol control device 82 can perform two-way communication.
The effect symbol control device 82 displays effect symbols based on data and commands received from the sub integrated control device 83 (both of which are transmitted from the main control device 80 and those generated by the sub integrated control device 83). The device 6 is controlled to display an effect image such as an effect pattern on the screen 6 a of the effect symbol display device 6.

  The main routine executed by main controller 80 will be described according to FIG. The main routine is periodically executed with a hard interrupt of about 2 ms. In the present embodiment, the process executed only once from S10 to S65 is referred to as "the main process", and the process of S70 repeatedly executed as long as time permits within the time remaining after the main process is executed. It is called "residual treatment". The "main process" is periodically executed by the above-mentioned interrupt.

  When a hard interrupt is executed by the microcomputer, it is first determined whether it is a normal interrupt (S10). This determination process is performed by determining whether or not the value of a predetermined area of the RAM as a memory is a predetermined value, and when the process executed by the microcomputer shifts to this process, the normal process is executed. It is for judging whether it is good or not. In the case of not being a normal interrupt, it is conceivable that the microcomputer runs out upon power-on or due to noise or the like, but since it can be considered that there is almost no runaway of the microcomputer due to improvement in technology in recent years, most are power-on. When the power is turned on, the value of the predetermined area of the RAM is different from the predetermined value.

  If it is determined that the normal interrupt is not made (S10: no), initial setting (for example, writing a predetermined value to a predetermined area of the memory, each initial pattern to the working area of the memory such as special symbol and normal symbol as initial pattern) The value is written (S15), and the process proceeds to the remaining process (S70).

  When the positive determination that the normal interrupt is made is made (S10: yes), an initial value random number update process is executed (S20). This process is an incrementing process that increments the value of the initial value random number every time this process is performed, and increments the value of the initial value random number before this process is executed, but the random number value before this process is maximum When the value is "3966", the processing returns to the initial value "0" in the next process, and 3967 integers from "0" to "3966" are repeatedly created in ascending order.

  The big hit determination random number updating process (S25) following S20 is an increment process that increments by 1 each time the process is executed as in the initial value random number updating process, and in the case of the maximum value "3966", it is the first process in the next process The value is returned to "0", and 3967 integers from "0" to "3966" are repeatedly created in ascending order. The first value of the jackpot determination random number is the value set in the initial value random number setting process. Assuming that this value is 250, the jackpot determining random number is updated to "250" "251" "252"... "3966" "0" "1".

In addition, when the random number for big hit determination is one round (3967 times, it is updated), the value of the initial value random number at that time is made the initial value of the big hit determination random number, and the big hit determination random number is +1 from the initial value. Increment processing is performed. Then, when the jackpot determining random number makes one round again, an operation is performed to set the value of the initial value random number at that time to the initial value of the jackpot determining random number. That is, this series of operations will be repeated repeatedly. In the above-described example, when the jackpot determination random number is “249”, one round is performed, so that the next to “249” is the value of the initial value random number. Assuming that the value of the initial value random number is "87", "249""87""88" ... "3966""0""1" ... "86" changes to "86". Next to is the value of the new initial value random number. In addition, the number of values determined to be a big hit in the normal probability state is 10, and the values are "775" to "777""1775" to "1777""2774" to "2777", and the big hit in the high probability state The number of values determined to be 100 is 100, and the values are “758” to “777” “1314” to “1333” “1758” to “1777” “2758” to “2777” “3314” to “3333”. .
The jackpot symbol determination random number update process (S30) is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates 100 integers from "0" to "99", and is incremented by one for each process and exceeds the maximum value, the initial value being "0 Back to

  The hit determination random number updating process (S35) following S30 is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates 997 integers from "0" to "996", and is incremented by one for each process and is set to the initial value when it exceeds the maximum value. Return to "0". The values to be won are 31 to 40 in the normal probability state and 31 to 996 in the high probability state. In addition, this random number update process for hitting determination is usually used for lottery of symbols, other initial value random numbers, random number for big hit determination, random number for big hit symbol determination, random number for reach determination, random number for variation pattern determination random number for special symbol Used for

  The reach determination random number update process (S40) is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates 229 integers of “0” to “228”, and is incremented by one for each process and exceeds the maximum value. Back to In the normal probability state, the number of reach values when the fluctuation time shortening function is not activated is 21, and the values are “0” to “20”, and the reach is when the fluctuation time shortening function is activated in the normal probability state. The number of values is five, the values are "0" to "4", the number of values reaching in the high probability state is six, and the values are "0" to "5".

  The fluctuation pattern determination random number update process (S45) is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates 1021 integers from "0" to "1020", and is incremented by one for each process and is the first value when it exceeds the maximum value. Return to 0 ".

In the subsequent winning confirmation process (S50), the confirmation of winning of the first start port 11 and the second start port 12 and the input process of each switch provided in the pachinko machine 50 and connected to the main control device 80 are executed.
In this embodiment, when the game ball wins in the first starting opening 11 and the second starting opening 12, a plurality of random numbers such as random number for big hit determination, random number for big hit symbol determination, random number for variation pattern determination, random number for reach determination are obtained. However, the game ball is the first starting opening 11 or the first starting opening 11 when the number that can be reserved and stored is four for each of the first starting opening 11 and the second starting opening 12 and the reserved storage is full. 2 Even if winning is made in the starting opening 12, only a prize ball is paid out, and the plurality of random numbers are not stored on hold.

Subsequently, a success / failure determination process (S55) as condition satisfaction determination means for determining whether a big hit or not is performed. When the success / failure determination process (S55) is completed, each output process (S60) such as an image output process is subsequently executed.
In each output process (S60), the main control device 80 controls the rendering symbol control device 82, the payout control device 81, the launch control device 84, the sub integrated control device 83, the special winning opening solenoid 14b, etc. according to the progress of the game. Each performs output processing. That is, when it is detected by the winning confirmation process (S50) that there is a winning of the gaming ball at each winning opening on the gaming board 1, the winning ball data is output to the payout control device 81 to pay out the gaming ball as the winning ball. Process to output sound data corresponding to the game state to the sub integrated control device 83, and output an error signal to the effect symbol control device 82 to notify that it is in error when the pachinko machine 50 is abnormal Each process is executed.

  The subsequent fraud monitoring process (S65) is a process for monitoring whether or not the fraud at the normal winning opening (the first left winning opening 31, the second left winning opening 32, the third left winning opening 33) is performed, and the predetermined time It is a process of judging whether or not the number of game balls entering the winning opening in the inside is larger than a predetermined number determined in advance, and if it is large, it is judged to be incorrect and that effect is notified. That is, the fraud determination means is provided in the main control device 80.

  The above-described residual processing subsequent to this processing is composed of the initial value random number updating processing (S70), but is the same processing as S20 described above. This process forms an infinite loop and is repeatedly executed as long as time permits until the next interrupt is executed. The time required to execute the above-described processing from S10 to S65 differs for each interrupt depending on whether or not the big hit processing is performed, the display mode of the special symbol, and the like. As a result, the number of times the residual process is performed is also different for each interrupt, and the value updated to the initial value random number is not uniform because the interrupt process shown in FIG. 5 is performed once. Thereby, the possibility that the initial value random number will be synchronized with the jackpot determination random number will be extremely small. Assuming that the value of the initial value random number (3967 of 0 to 3966) occurs in the same degree when the jackpot determination random number makes one round, the probability of synchronization is only 1/3967. In addition, the hit determination random number updating process (S35) described above may be executed in the remaining process.

  The winning confirmation process of S50 is as shown in FIG. 6, and the main control device 80 determines whether the gaming ball has entered the first starting opening 11 based on the detection signal of the first starting opening switch 11a. It judges (S100). If the determination is affirmative (S100: yes), the first hold memory is full by reading the jackpot determination random number, the jackpot symbol determination random number, the reach determination random number, the fluctuation pattern determination random number, etc. from the corresponding counters. Then, it is determined whether or not four) (S105).

  If the first holding storage is not full (S105: no), the above-mentioned random numbers are stored as the first holding storage, and the number of lightings of the first special symbol holding number display device 18 is increased by 1 (S110). If there are already four first pending storages (S105: yes), no pending storage is performed, and the process proceeds to S115 without increasing the number of lightings of the first special symbol pending number display device 18.

  If it is determined that the game ball has not entered the first start opening 11 (S100: no), the process also proceeds to S115, and the game ball is displayed in the second start opening 12 based on the detection signal of the second start opening switch 12a. Determine if the ball has entered the ball. If the determination is affirmative (S115: yes), the big hit determination random number, the big hit symbol determination random number, the reach determination random number, the variation pattern determination random number, etc. are read from the corresponding counters, and the second pending storage becomes full (this embodiment) Then, it is determined whether or not four) (S120).

If the second hold storage is not full (S120: no), the above random numbers are stored as the second hold storage, and the number of lightings of the second special symbol hold number display device 19 is increased by 1 (S125). If there are four second holding memories (S120: yes), the second holding is not stored, and the number of lightings of the second special symbol holding number display device 19 is not increased either, and this processing is ended (return). Further, also when the game ball is not entering the second starting opening 12 (S115: no), the present process is ended.
In the present embodiment, during the execution of the “standby state control process” described later, if the ball entering the first starting opening 11 as the second combination opening is generated, the second combination described above The operation port detection command is configured to be output to the sub integrated control device 83.

  7 to 10, the main control device 80 determines whether or not the special motorized part is in operation based on the big hit flag (S200). If the determination of S200 is negative and the special symbol is not changing (S205: no) and the final symbol is not displayed (S210: no), the process proceeds to S250 of FIG. 8 and the second hold storage (above, S125) It is determined whether there is a pending storage (S250).

  If there is this pending storage (S250: yes), the second pending storage number is decremented (S255), and the process proceeds to S270. If there is no second pending storage (S250: no), it is determined whether there is a first pending storage (the above pending storage by S110) (S260). If there is the first pending storage (S260: yes), the first pending storage number is decremented (S265), and the process proceeds to S270.

  At S270, the oldest one of the second pending storages (the first pending storage when transferred from S265) is read (the pending storages are erased), and whether or not the positive change flag is set (ie, 1) Determine Here, the probability change flag 1 means that the current pachinko machine 50 is in the high probability gaming state. If the determination is affirmative (S270: yes), the read jackpot determination random number is compared with the hit value recorded in the probability variation table (S275). Here, the number of hits is 100: 758 to 777, 1314 to 1333, 1755 to 1777, 275 to 2777, 3314 to 3333. In other words, the hit probability is 1 / 39.67. If the determination is negative (S270: no), the read jackpot determining random number is compared with the hit value recorded in the normal table (S280). Here, the number of hits is 10: 775 to 777, 1775 to 1777, and 2774 to 2777. In other words, the hit probability is 1 / 396.7.

Based on the determination in S275 or S280, it is determined whether or not a big hit (S285), and if it is affirmed determination (S285: yes), a hit symbol is determined by the big hit symbol determination random number (S290).
Although not shown, there are 10 types of jackpot symbols, and symbols 1 to 6 are odd symbols, and symbols 7 to 10 are normal symbols. In addition, the symbols 4 to 6 are two rounds, and the other symbols are 15 rounds. In addition, the probability that each jackpot symbol is displayed is set to generate equally to the jackpot symbol determination random number for the first special symbol. On the other hand, for the second special symbol, each symbol of symbols 1 to 3 is set to occur at a probability twice as high as that of each symbol 7 to 10. Moreover, it is set so that it does not generate | occur | produce about the symbols 4-6. As a result, in the lottery with the first special symbol, it will be a 15 round jackpot with a probability of 7/10, and in the lottery with a second special symbol, it will be a 15 jackpot with 100% probability. That is, the jackpot with the second special symbol can expect more prize balls, which is an advantageous jackpot for the player. The probability of shifting to the probability fluctuation state is 6/10 for both the first special symbol and the second special symbol.

The 15 round probability variation big hit assigned to the symbols 1 to 3 is to open the big winning opening 14 up to 28 seconds 15 times, and after that the operation of the probability variation function, the function to reduce the symbol variation time (( The operation of the time saving function or the short time function and the operation of the open extension function (also referred to as the open extension function) of the ordinary motorized part are continued until the next big hit. The 15 rounds normally assigned to symbols 7 to 10 are for opening the big winning opening 14 up to 28 seconds 15 times, and after that, the operation of the time shortening function and the operation of the opening extension function are performed. Continue until the special symbol changes 100 times. Note that the probability fluctuation function does not operate. The 2 round probability variation big hit assigned to the symbols 4 to 6 is called a sudden probability big hit, and the big winning opening 14 is opened twice at a maximum of 0.8 seconds, and after that, it changes probability The function works until the next big hit. With regard to the time reduction function of the symbol variation and the open extension function of the ordinary electric character both, the activated / deactivated changes depending on the gaming state when the special symbol that the symbols 4 to 6 are displayed starts to change Do. That is, if the state at the time of fluctuation is a state in which time saving is activated, both the time shortening function and the open extension function operate until the next big hit. On the other hand, if the state at the time of fluctuation is a state in which time saving is not activated, neither the time shortening function nor the open extension function is activated. In addition, the time saving function and the opening extension function set an upper limit value to a counter called time saving number at the time of these operations, count down this each time the special symbol changes, and stop the operation when it becomes zero. In the case of a 15-round normal big hit, 100 is set as the number of time-savings. When the time saving function and the open extension function are operated until the next big hit, it is substantially realized by setting 10,000 as the number of time saving times. In addition, the above-mentioned "certain change to the next big hit" is realized by setting 10,000 as the number of definite change. The number of definite variations is counted down each time the special symbol changes, as in the case of the number of time reductions, and the probability variation function is deactivated when it becomes zero.
As described above, the main control device 80 according to the present embodiment extends the opening time of the second starting opening 12 made of the ordinary electric role after the big hit gaming state ends, thereby extending the opening which is advantageous for the player. It is equipped with a power transmission release extension control means which controls to shift to a state (also referred to as a power support state or a power support state).

The small hit is to open the big winning opening 14 up to 0.8 seconds twice, and after that, none of the probability changing function, the time shortening function, and the open extension function is activated. However, this means that "these functions do not operate in response to the occurrence and termination of small hits," and the state at the start of the fluctuation of the special symbol that will cause small hits is maintained. . That is, when the fluctuation is started in the probability fluctuation state, the gaming state after the small hit is the probability fluctuation state, and when the fluctuation is started in the short time state, it is the time shortening state, the fluctuation in the open extension state Is open and extended. This means that it is difficult to identify small hits and sudden big hits from the opening pattern of the big winning opening 14, and whether or not the time saving function or the opening extension function is activated in the subsequent state. . In addition, in the state where the probability variation function is not working, small hit and sudden probability big hit occur, the game state after these ends respectively is different (small hitting probability variation function does not operate, sudden probability big hit probability It is difficult for the player to determine whether or not the probability variation function is activated by making the effect accompanying the activation / deactivation completely the same for both of them. it can.
Specifically, for example, when the special symbol hits with symbols 1 to 3, the special symbol hits with symbols 4 to 6, when the special symbol hits with symbols 7 to 10, and when it is a small hit The sub integrated control device 83 according to the present embodiment executes "not shown" per symbol sharing processing based on a command transmitted from the main control device 80, thereby performing "999" as a symbol per symbol sharing, It is comprised so that a stop display (decision display) may be carried out to the production | presentation symbol display apparatus 6. FIG.
This makes it difficult for the player to know whether or not the probability variation function has been activated. Also, as an effect of the present invention, it can not be determined whether it is a big hit or a small hit.
In addition to such a configuration and operation, in the present embodiment, by providing a control configuration such as “standby state control processing” as a main part of the present invention to be described later, any of the large hit and the small hit Can not be determined.

  Return to FIG. Thus, when the jackpot symbol is determined, the fluctuation pattern is determined by the fluctuation pattern determination random number (S295), and the jackpot setting process is performed (S300). The jackpot setting process is determined by the jackpot symbol determined, gaming state after jackpot (such as presence or absence of probability change or opening extension) and information (jackpot opening time, opening pattern, jackpot ending time, number of rounds, etc.) required for a jackpot game It is processing to acquire.

  If it is determined in S285 that it is out of alignment, it is determined whether it is a small hit (S305). Here, the jackpot determining random number is small hit when it is 301 to 361. That is, the small hit probability is about 1/65. If the determination is affirmative, the small hitting symbol is determined (S310), and the variation pattern is determined by the variation pattern determination random number (S315). The small hit symbol is determined by the small hit symbol determination random number acquired when the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12 is entered. This random number takes a value of 0-9. When the small hit is also out (S305: no), the variation pattern is determined based on the reach determination random number and the variation pattern determination random number (S320). In this way, when the fluctuation pattern is set by S315 or S320, the loss setting process is performed (S325). In the loss setting process, if the number of times of time saving or the number of times of probability variation is plus, each is -1.

  Subsequent to S300 or S325, the data indicating the above-mentioned lottery result, specifically, usually either a big hit, a positive change big hit, a reach out (with out but reach indication), a small hit or a out of reach indication The variation start command (display control command) including the data to be shown and the variation pattern data for designating the variation time is output to the sub integrated control device 83 (S330), and special game processing is performed. In addition, although the fluctuation display of a production | presentation symbol is started in the production | presentation symbol display apparatus 15 by the process of S330, the fluctuation of a special symbol is also started by the main control apparatus 80 substantially simultaneously.

When it is determined that the special symbol is changing (S205: yes) in S205 of FIG. 7, the process proceeds to S340 of FIG. 9, and the symbol variation time (based on the variation pattern of S295, S315, or S320) has passed. It is determined whether or not. If the determination is negative (S340: no), the special game processing is performed, and if the determination is a positive determination, the special symbol display processing (S345) is performed and then the special game processing is performed. In the final symbol display process, a command (symbol finalization command) for displaying the final symbol is output to the sub integrated control unit 83, and the command is output to the special symbol display device 9 or 10 and the final symbol is stopped and displayed. .
As described above, the main control device 80 of the present embodiment performs the process of determining whether or not to make a big hit due to the winning of the first start port 11 or the second start port 12. And, as a result of the determination, when entering the first starting opening 11 causes the first special symbol (also referred to as the first special view) or entering the second starting opening 12 When it is caused, the second special symbol (also referred to as a second special view) is displayed in a variable manner for a predetermined fluctuation time. Furthermore, after the variation display is performed, the determination result of the determination of the acceptance or rejection is indicated by performing stop display in a predetermined symbol display mode (predetermined combination).

  When it is determined in S210 of FIG. 7 that the final symbol is being displayed, the process proceeds to S350 in FIG. 10, and it is determined whether the display time of the final symbol has ended. In the case of a negative determination (S350: no), special game processing is performed. If the determination is affirmative (S350: yes), the display of the final symbol is ended (S355), and it is determined whether the special symbol displayed in the final symbol is a symbol that will be a big hit (S360). If an affirmative determination is made (S360: yes), it is determined whether the probability change flag is 1 (S365). If the probability change flag is 1 (S365: yes), the probability change flag is set to 0 in S370, and the process proceeds to S375. If the definite change flag is not 1 (S365: no), the process proceeds to S375 as it is. In S375, it is determined whether the time saving flag is 1. If the time saving flag is 1 (S375: yes), the time saving flag is set to 0 in S380, and the process proceeds to S385. If the time saving flag is not 1 (S375: no), the process proceeds to S385.

At S385, the condition device operation start process sets the big hit flag, and the process proceeds to S395.
In S395, the "big hit start waiting effect processing" is executed, and this processing ends.
In the "big hit start standby effect processing", from the state where the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed (finalized display) and stopped, it is impossible to determine whether the result of the change is a small hit or a big hit In order to perform the concealment effect, a "big hit start waiting effect command" is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83.

If it is determined in S360 that the special symbol displayed in the finalized display is not a display that would be a big hit, it is determined whether the probability change flag is 1 or not, and if 1 (S400: yes), the number of probability changes is 0 or not Is determined (S405). If the number of definite variations is 0 (S405: yes), the certain variation flag is set to 0 in S410, and the process proceeds to S415. When the probability variation flag is not 1 (S400: no) or when the number of probability variations is not 0 (S405: no), the process directly proceeds to S415.
In S415, it is determined whether the time saving flag is 1 or not, and if it is 1 (S415: yes), it is determined whether the time saving number is 0 or not (S420). If the time saving number is 0 (S420: yes), the time saving flag is set to 0 in S425, and the process proceeds to S430. When the time saving flag is not 1 (S415: no) or when the time saving number is not 0 (S420: no), the process proceeds to S430.

At S430, a state designating command indicating a state such as whether or not the current gaming state is indeterminate, or whether it is in the middle or in a short time is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83. It is determined whether or not the symbol is a small hit symbol. If the symbol is a small hit (S 435: yes), the special electric combination starting process (S 440) is performed, and the small hit starting effect process is performed in S 445. In the small hit start effect processing, a command to start the small hit game and information related to the small hit game (small opening time, small hitting ending time, etc.) are transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83. When the small hitting start effect processing is finished, special game processing is executed. If it is determined in S435 that the pattern is not a small hit (S435: no), special game processing is executed as it is.
In the present embodiment, the opening time (start interval time) of the small hit is set to, for example, 10 seconds, which is longer than a general time.
As a result, in the "standby state control process" described later, it is easy to make the part that is actually a big hit into a state where it is not obvious whether it is a big hit or a small hit. That is, by increasing the start interval time of the small hit, the time when the big winning opening 14 is opened and the small hit game is ended is made later than the conventional setting, and thus it is not clear whether it is a big hit or not It is possible to secure time for executing the concealed effect and the second concealed effect.

In the special game process shown in FIG. 11, the main control device 80 determines whether or not the condition device is in operation based on the big hit flag (set 1 in S385 described above) (S500). If the condition device is in operation (S500: yes), then it is determined whether or not the bonus continuous operation device is in operation (S505). If the accessory continuous actuation device is in operation (S505: yes), the processing proceeds to S515, and if not in operation (S505: no), the processing proceeds to S510 “waiting state control processing” and executed, then S515 Transfer the process to
The "standby state control process" of S510 is a module that is the main part of the present invention, which is executed when the condition device is operating but the character continuous operation device is not operating, and the detailed description will be described later. It shall be.

  Next, in S515, main controller 80 determines whether or not big winning opening 14 is open (S515). If the big winning opening 14 is not open (S515: no), it is determined whether the big winning opening 14 is closed during the interval between rounds (S520). If it is not during the interval (S520: no), it is judged whether or not the jackpot end effect is under way (S525). If this is also a negative determination (S525: no), it is determined whether the time required for the effect of starting the big hit game has passed from now (S530). If the jackpot start presentation time has elapsed (S530: yes), the special winning opening opening process (S535) is performed and this process is ended (return).

  If it is determined in S515 that the special winning opening 14 is open, the process proceeds to S550 in FIG. 12, and it is determined whether ten winning combinations in the special winning opening 14 have been made. In the present embodiment, the number is ten, but may be nine or eight, and is not particularly limited. If ten prizes have been won in the special winning opening 14 (S550: yes), the process proceeds to S560 to perform a special winning opening closing process. Then, a big hit interval process (S565) is performed, and the special game process is ended. If ten of the special winning openings 14 have not been won (S550: no), the process proceeds to S555, and it is determined whether the opening time of the special opening 14 has ended. In the present embodiment, in the case of a big hit in 15 rounds, the maximum opening time of each round is set to 28 seconds. Of course, it is not limited to this number of seconds. If the opening time is over (S 555: yes), the process joins S 560. If the opening time is not over (S 555: no), the special game process is ended.

  If it is determined in S520 in FIG. 11 that the interval is in progress, the process proceeds to S570 in FIG. 12, and it is determined whether the big hit interval time has elapsed. If the interval time has elapsed (S 570: yes), it is determined whether or not it is the final round that the special winning opening 14 was open immediately before (S 575). If it is the final round (S575: yes), the jackpot end effect processing (S580) is performed, and the special game processing is ended. If it is not the final round (S575: no), processing to open the special winning opening 14 again (S585) is performed, and the special game processing is ended. If it is determined that the big hit interval time has not elapsed (S570: no), the special game processing is ended as it is. In the process of opening and closing the special winning opening 14, a signal is also transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83. The sub integrated control device 83 grasps the current round based on the signal, and performs an effect corresponding to the round.

  If it is determined in S525 of FIG. 11 that the big hit is being played, the process proceeds to S600 of FIG. 13, and it is determined whether the big hit finish production time has elapsed. If the jackpot end presentation time has elapsed (S600: yes), the operation of the accessory continuously operating device is stopped (S605), and the operation of the condition device is stopped (S610). Then, based on the information acquired in S300, it is determined whether or not to shift to probability variation in the next game state (S615). When shifting to the positive variation (S615: yes), the number of positive variations is set (S620), the positive variation flag is set to 1 (S625), and the flow shifts to S630. When the probability change flag is set to 1, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the special symbol is improved. When not shifting to definite variation (S615: no), it shifts to S630 as it is. In addition, when a final symbol is a two round big hit symbol, it is determined as yes in S615 and a definite change is set.

  In S630, it is determined whether or not to shift to a short time in the next gaming state. When transitioning to time saving (S630: yes), set the time saving number (S635), set the time saving flag to 1 (S640), and send the big hit end command to the sub integrated control unit 83 (S645) The state specification command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S650), and the special game process is ended. If the time saving flag is set to 1, in this embodiment, the average fluctuation time of the special symbol is shortened, the average fluctuation time of the normal symbol is shortened, and the opening extension function of the normal motorized actor 12 is set, and the value of the time saving counter is set. If the time shift is not made (S630: no), the process goes to S645. In addition, when a final symbol is a 2 round big hit symbol, it is determined as no in S630 and does not shift to time saving. However, if the final symbol is a two round big hit symbol during the short time, it is determined as yes in S630, and the short status is maintained. The above is special game processing.

When it is determined in FIG. 11 that the condition device is not operating (S500: no), it is determined whether the special motorized product is in operation (S540), and it is determined that it is not in operation. If it is determined (S540: no), the process ends, and if it is determined that the game is in operation (S540: yes), the small hit game process shown in FIG. 14 is executed.
When this process is activated, it is determined in S700 whether the special electric symbol is in operation or not (S700: yes), it is determined whether the special winning opening 14 is open (S705). In the case of a negative determination (S705: no), it is judged whether it is in the interval between small hit games (S710). If it is not the interval between small hit games (S710: no) and it is not even during the small hit game end production (S715: no), it waits for the time required for the small hit game start production to elapse (S720: yes) , The special winning opening 14 is opened (S725), this processing ends. When it is determined that the special electric role is not working (S700: no) or the time required for the small hit start effect (for example, 10 seconds in the present embodiment) has not elapsed (S720: no) The process ends as it is.

If it is determined in S705 in FIG. 14 that the special winning opening 14 is in the open state, the process proceeds to S750 in FIG. 15, and it is determined whether 10 winning prizes in the special winning opening 14 have been won. If it is determined that the 10 special winning openings 14 have not been won (S750: no), the process proceeds to S755, and it is determined whether the opening time of the special opening 14 has ended. In the present embodiment, in the case of a small hit, the maximum duration of each opening is set to 0.8 seconds. Of course, it is not limited to this number of seconds. If the opening time has ended (S755: yes), a special winning opening closing process is performed in S760. Then, small hit interval processing (S765) is performed, and the small hit gaming processing is ended.
If 10 large winning openings 14 are won (S750: yes), the process goes directly to S760, and if the opening time of the large winning opening 14 is not finished (S755: no), the small hit game processing is ended.

  If it is determined in S710 of FIG. 14 that the small hit interval is in progress, the process proceeds to S770 of FIG. 15, and it is determined whether the small hit interval time has elapsed. If the small hit interval time has elapsed (S 770: yes), it is determined in S 775 whether or not the large winning opening 14 has been opened a prescribed number of times (here two times) or ten winnings have been made. If the determination is affirmative (S775: yes), the small hitting end effect processing (S780) is performed, and the small hitting game processing is ended. In the case of a negative determination (S775: no), the large winning opening 14 is opened once for 0.8 seconds by the large winning opening opening processing (S785), and the small hit gaming processing is ended. That is, in the small hit, the big winning opening 14 is basically opened twice for 0.8 seconds, but when there are 10 or more winnings in one opening, the small hitting ends with only one opening. Do. In practice, 10 or more winnings rarely occur in one opening.

If it is determined in S715 of FIG. 14 that the small hit end effect is being performed, the process proceeds to S790 of FIG. 15, and it is determined whether the small hit end effect time has elapsed. If it is determined that the small hit end production time has elapsed (S790: yes), the operation of the special electric role is stopped in S795, and a small hit end command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S798). The small hit game processing ends. If it is determined that the small hit end production time has not elapsed (S790: no), the small hit game processing ends.
As described above, the main control device 80 starts and executes the small hit game on the basis of the stop display with the predetermined small hit symbol by the “small hit game process” described above.

[Wait state control process 1]
The above-mentioned “standby state control process 1” will be described with reference to FIG. “Standby state control process 1” is a module of the special game process, and is a process executed by the main control unit 80 when the condition device is in operation and the bonus continuous operation device is inoperative. is there.
In the present embodiment, even if the condition device is operating, the opening operation of the continuous big winning opening 14 by the big hit game is not started when the continuous product operating device is not operating. Therefore, the player has a game characteristic of changing from left-handed to right-handed and aiming to enter the gate 17 as the first combination operating opening disposed in the right gaming area.
In addition, as described above, in the present embodiment, the first start port 11 also has a function as a second combination operation port, and the gate 17 is also configured to have a function as a first combination operation port. The first working link corresponds to the gate 17 in the following description, and the second working link corresponds to the first starting port 11.

When the "waiting state control process 1" is started, the main control device 80 first determines whether "0" is set in the "hiding effect execution flag" (S810), and a positive determination, that is, 0 is set (S810: yes), the process proceeds to S815, and a negative determination, ie, when 1 is set (S810: no), the process proceeds to S855.
The main control device 80 determines whether or not the gaming ball has entered the first winning combination operating port in S815 (S815), and when it has not entered the ball (S815: no), this processing ends. When it is determined that the ball is hit (S815: yes), a big hit start lottery process is executed (S820).
That is, the main control device 80 executes the big hit start lottery process triggered by the occurrence of the ball entering the first combination run opening during the big hit start standby state shifted by the big hit symbol being stopped and displayed.
Main controller 80 determines, following S 820, whether or not the big hit is due to the second special figure (also referred to as the second special symbol) that fluctuates due to the ball entering second starting opening 12. (S825), according to the second special figure (S825: yes), it proceeds to S835, not according to the second special figure, ie according to the first special figure (S825: no), subsequently won the jackpot start lottery It is determined whether or not it is (S830), and if it is a winning (S830: yes), the process proceeds to S835.
In S835, the main control device 80 performs operation start processing of the character continuous actuation device (S835), then executes the jackpot start presentation processing (S840), and ends the present processing.
In the big hit start effect processing, the command to start the big hit game and information related to the big hit game (opening time of big hit, opening pattern, ending time of big hit, number of rounds, etc.) are transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83.

As described above, in the present embodiment, if it is determined in S825 that the jackpot according to the second special figure is determined, the determination processing in S830 is executed regardless of whether the lottery result in S820 is either winning or non-winning. It is configured to directly execute the processing of S 835 and S 840 and start the round game. That is, in the case of a big hit according to the second special figure, the lottery result of the big hit start lottery is not determined to be non-winning, and the same processing as when winning is performed.
By doing this, when a big hit occurs due to the winning to the second start opening 12 in the right-handed game, the result of the big hit start lottery will always be elected, and wait for the ball to enter the second combination run opening Since the feature continuous actuation device starts to operate without causing the player to change the useless firing position, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling uncomfortable.
Moreover, in the present embodiment, in the case of the jackpot by the second special view, the "first concealment effect" is performed, and entering the first combination run opening and the big hit start lottery are performed, but regardless of the lottery result, There is no "second concealed effect".

When the main control apparatus 80 is not elected at S830 (S830: no), the process proceeds to S845, and 1 is set to the "hiding effect execution flag" (S845), and the concealment effect execution processing is performed to execute the concealment effect The command is sent to the sub integrated control unit 83.
The “hidden effect execution flag” is a flag indicating that “the second concealed effect” in the present embodiment is being executed by setting “1”.
In addition, "the first concealment effect" is a big hit or small in the period until the ball entry to the first combination run opening occurs after the above-mentioned pseudo shared symbol (for example, "999") is stopped and displayed It is an effect that makes it impossible to determine if it is a hit. In addition, whether "second concealment effect" is a big hit or a small hit in the period until the entry to the second combination run opening occurs after the entry to the first combination run opening occurs? Is an effect that makes it impossible to determine

If it is determined in S810 that "the concealment effect execution flag" is set to 1, main controller 80 determines whether or not the ball entering the second combination run opening has occurred in S855. This determination is made (S855), and in the case of a negative determination (S855: no), this processing ends. When it is affirmation determination (S855: yes), 0 is set to "the concealment production execution flag" (S860), and the processing of S835 and S840 is performed.
As described above, the main control device 80 according to the present embodiment determines whether the jackpot start time is time to enter the first combination run opening or to enter the second combination run opening by the processing of S830 to S860. I try to select one. That is, when winning in the big hit start lottery (S 830: yes), immediately, to continue the character continuous actuation device operation start processing (S 835) and the big hit start effect processing (S 840), but does not win in the big hit start lottery In the case (S 830: no), it is configured to execute S 835 and S 840 after waiting until the time when the ball entering the second combination operation opening occurs.
The above is the “standby state control processing 1” of the present embodiment.

[Hit-type hiding effect processing 1]
Next, the “hit type concealment rendering process 1” executed by the sub integrated control device 83 based on the command transmitted from the main control device 80 will be described with reference to FIG. The “hit type concealment rendering process 1” is a process of concealing the type of the hit unidentifiablely to indicate whether it is a big hit or a small hit.
When the sub integrated control device 83 starts execution of "performing type concealment rendering process 1", first, in S910, it is determined whether or not the first concealment effect is being executed (S910), and in the case of a negative determination (S910: no) ), It is determined whether the second concealed effect is being executed in S915 (S915), and in the case of a negative determination (S915: no), it is determined whether or not the pseudo normal effect is being executed in S920 ( In the case of a negative determination (S920: no), it is determined whether or not a big hit start standby command has been received in S925 (S925), and in the case of a negative determination (S925: no), this processing ends.
The sub integrated control device 83 proceeds to S940 described later when the determination is affirmative in S910 (S910: yes), and proceeds to S950 described later when the determination is affirmative in S915 (S915: yes). If the determination is affirmative at S920 (S920: yes), the process proceeds to S965 described later.

If the sub integrated control device 83 receives an affirmative determination at S925, that is, a big hit start standby effect command (S925: yes), at S930, a predetermined required time (for example, 10) relating to the small hit game start interval. A process of starting measurement of seconds) is executed (S930), and then, in S935, a first concealment effect execution process is executed (S935), and the process proceeds to S940.
That is, the sub integrated control device 83 executes the first concealed effect by the first concealed effect execution process of S935. The first concealment effect is an effect that can not be determined as the effect until the small hit symbol is stopped and displayed until the first combination run opening is entered, and the first combination operation is performed during the jackpot start standby state It is an effect executed until the player enters the mouth.
The jackpot start standby effect command is a command transmitted from the main control device 80 in the jackpot start standby effect process (S395) of the above-described success or failure determination process (FIG. 10).
Further, in the present embodiment, a measurement counter for measuring a predetermined required time (for example, 10 seconds) relating to the small hit game start interval is provided, and in S930, the process of starting the count-up of the counter It is. The measurement is realized by the count value becoming a numerical value corresponding to the required time. Note that the "hit type concealment effect processing 1" including S930 is a processing to be executed in the case of a big hit, and it is a small hit in order to make it impossible to determine whether the player is a big hit or a small hit. The same effect processing is performed. Therefore, the measurement counter is a means for accurately measuring the start interval of a small hit game to be executed if a small hit has occurred, and concealing the occurrence of a big hit from the player. .

The sub integrated control apparatus 83 determines whether or not the concealment effect execution command has been received at S940 (S940) after the processing at S935 or in the case of an affirmative determination at S910 (S910: yes), the case is received (S940). Yes), the second concealment effect execution process is performed in S945 (S945), and the process proceeds to S950. If a negative determination is made in S940, that is, if not received (S940: no), the process proceeds to S965 described later.
The concealment effect execution command is a command transmitted from the main control device 80 in the concealment effect execution process (S850) of the "standby state control process 1" (FIG. 16). That is, having received the command means that the player has not won the jackpot start lottery and is in a state of waiting for the start of the operation of the continuous product actuating device until the ball entry of the second winning combination operation port .

The sub integrated control device 83 determines whether or not the small hitting game time has elapsed in S950 (S950) after the processing of S945 or in the case of affirmation determination in S915 (S915: yes) (S950) Yes), the small hitting game time measurement end processing in S955, that is, the processing which ends count-up of the measurement counter and resets the counter to 0 is performed (S955), it moves to S960. If a negative determination is made in S950, that is, the small hit gaming time has not elapsed (S950: no), the process moves to S965.
In S950, it is determined whether a predetermined required time (for example, 10 seconds) related to the small hit game start interval has been reached, that is, whether the count value of the measurement counter has become a value corresponding to the required time. Do.

The sub integrated control device 83 executes the “pseudo normal effect execution process” in S960, and shifts to S965.
In S960, a pseudo normal effect is executed to cause the player to mistake as if the small hit game ended and the normal game was resumed, although it was actually in the state before the operation of the bonus continuous actuation device. Do the process to start.

The sub integrated control device 83 executes S965, which is executed in the case of affirmation determination in S920 (S920: yes), in the case of a denial determination in S940 (S940: no), or in the case of a negative determination in S950 (S950: no). It is determined whether or not the jackpot start presentation command has been received (S965).
The “big hit start effect command” is a command transmitted from the main control device 80 when the operation of the bonus product continuous operation device is started in S 840 of the “standby state control process 1” (FIG. 16) described above. is there.
The sub integrated control device 83 performs processing to start execution of the jackpot start effect in S970 in the case of a positive determination in S965 (S965: yes), and ends this processing in the case of a negative determination (S965: no).
The jackpot start effect is a command to clearly notify that the jackpot is a jackpot from the state of concealing the jackpot or the jackpot and to notify that the round game is started.
If the second winning combination operating port is entered before the small hitting game time elapses, following a negative determination at S950 (S950: no), a positive determination is made at S965 (S965: yes) . That is, when the player enters the second winning combination operation port before the end of the small hitting game time, the main control unit 80 makes an affirmative determination in S855 of "standby state control processing 1" (FIG. 16) executed, and continues S840. The jackpot start effect command is transmitted from the main control unit 80 at step S. S 965 determines whether or not the big hit start effect command has been received.
As described above, in the present embodiment, it is determined by the determination processing of S950 and S965 whether or not ball entry to the second winning combination operation port has occurred during the small hitting game time.

As described above, if the sub integrated control device 83 is won in the big hit start lottery (affirmative determination in S 830 in FIG. 16), that is, if it is negative determination in S 940, enters the second winning combination operating port (S 950 The big hit start production of S970 based on the reception of the big hit start presentation command (positive determination of S965) directly without waiting for the affirmed judgment of S965 following the negative judgment of) or the small hit gaming time lapse (the positive determination of S950) Execute processing. In other words, the player enters the first combination run opening and, in the case of winning in the big hit start lottery, is configured to execute the big hit start effect by the processing of S925, S940, S965, and S970. .
That is, in the present embodiment, when the jackpot is won by the jackpot start lottery, the jackpot game is started as it is, so the player does not have to enter the second combination run opening. There is.

  Further, as described above, when the sub integrated control device 83 does not win in the big hit start lottery (negative determination in S830 of FIG. 16), that is, the first concealment effect is executed in S935 and a positive determination is made in S940. If yes, execute S955 and S960. In other words, when entering the first winning combination operation port and not winning in the big hit start lottery, the processing of S 925 to S 970 executes the effect that can not be distinguished from the effect at the small hitting game, and the small When the time when the hit game is over comes, it is configured to execute a pseudo-normal rendering that can not be distinguished from the normal rendering performed in the normal state.

  Furthermore, as described above, when the sub integrated control device 83 is not elected in the big hit start lottery (negative determination in S830 of FIG. 16), that is, the second concealed party is executing during the second concealment effect execution (positive determination in S915). When entering the operation opening (affirming determination in S965 following negative determination in S950) or receiving a big hit start rendering command by entering the second combination run opening during pseudo-normal production (affirming determination in S920) When (Yes in S965), the jackpot start effect is executed in S970. In other words, when entering the first combination run opening and not winning in the big hit start lottery, the processing of S915, S925, S950, S965 and S970, enter the second combination run opening It is configured to execute a jackpot start rendition based on.

Next, a specific effect display mode when the sub integrated control device 83 according to the present embodiment described above executes the "hit type concealment rendering process 1" will be described with reference to Figs.
In FIG. 20 (a), when the sub integrated control device 83 executes the effect display of the variable display which is lost by the determination of the special symbol based on the command transmitted from the main control device 80, the effect symbol display An example of the display mode displayed on the screen 6 a of the device 6 is shown.
On the screen 6a, a state is shown in which a decorative symbol (also referred to as a pseudo symbol or decorative symbol) 91 composed of three numbers on the left, middle and right corresponding to a special symbol is being variably displayed by vertical scrolling. There is. In the lower left portion of the screen 6a of the present embodiment, a pseudo holding storage display area 93 for displaying a pseudo first holding storage display corresponding to the first holding storage of the first special symbol is displayed. , Three pseudo pending storage indications 94 to 96 are displayed, which display the pseudo first pending storage indication. The sub integrated control apparatus 83 displays the above described pseudo pending storage display area 93 and the pseudo pending storage display 94 to 96 by pseudo pending display processing (not shown).
As described above, in the normal state, the sub integrated control apparatus 83 according to the present embodiment displays only the pseudo first suspension storage display corresponding to the first suspension storage, and even if the second suspension storage is stored. The display corresponding to the second pending storage is not performed. Also, although not shown, conversely in the open extension state, only the pseudo second hold storage display corresponding to the second hold storage is displayed without displaying the pseudo first hold storage display. .

Unlike the configuration of the present embodiment, in the normal state, the pseudo second suspension storage display may be displayed together with the pseudo first suspension storage display. In the open extension state, the pseudo first hold storage display may be displayed together with the pseudo second hold storage display.
In such a configuration, the pseudo first pending storage display and the pseudo second pending storage display may be displayed in a distinguishable manner. Also, although the illustrated pseudo storage storage display area 93 is set as a displayable area for four pseudo storage storage displays, up to eight pseudo first storage storage displays and pseudo second storage storage displays can be displayed. The setting may be made, or the size of the area may be changed according to the state.
In addition, a character 92 is also displayed on the screen 6a in order to make it easy to inform the player and to allow the player to easily recognize the current state. Note that the display mode is a display mode of a normal effect during the normal game, including the expression of the character 92.

As the variation display progresses, as shown in FIG. 20 (b), the decorative symbol on the left is “2”, the decorative symbol on the right is “6”, and the screen 6a is the decorative symbol 91 of FIG. 20 (c). The stop display (fixed display) is performed in the missing display mode of “226”.
Next, when the variable display based on the hold storage corresponding to the pseudo hold storage display 94 is started, the pseudo hold storage display 94 is erased, and the decorative symbol 91 starts the variable display. Note that the change corresponding to the pseudo reserve storage display 94 is a change display determined to be a big hit in the pass / fail determination, and is a display mode when “hit type concealment presentation processing 1” is executed. And the display mode to following FIG. 21 (b) is comprised so that it may become the same mode as the display at the time of being judged as a small hit by the propriety determination. As a result, it is possible to make it impossible for the player to determine whether a big hit or a small hit. In other words, the effect mode is configured in the same effect mode as the effect mode to be executed at the time of the small hit.
When the variable display advances and it becomes a super reach where the left symbol of the decorative symbol 91 is “9” and the right symbol is “9” as shown in FIG. 20 (e), “super reach” is displayed as a comment of the character 92 And, there is an effect display where lightning is running. At this time, the sub integrated control apparatus 83 erases the display of the pseudo hold storage display area 93 and the pseudo hold storage displays 95 and 96. As a result, the player is not provided with a means for confirming the number of pending storages that may progress to a big hit or a small hit. Suddenly the super reach occurs and the display of the pseudo storage display area 93 and the pseudo storage display 95 and 96 is erased at the same time, so that the player loses a means for confirming the number of storages at present. .
Thus, the sub integrated control device 83 does not display the pseudo holding display 95 and 96 and the pseudo holding storage display area 93 during the variable display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. It is configured to control.

  The change progresses from the super reach, and as shown in FIG. 20 (f), “999” is stopped and displayed as the decorative symbol 91. The decorative symbol 91 of the "999" is a decorative symbol displayed in common to the big hit symbol and the small hit symbol, and is a dummy in-service hit symbol. “Chance!” Is displayed as a comment of the character 92, and the player is informed that it is not clear whether the game is a big hit or a small hit. As described above, in the state in which "999" is stopped and displayed as the decorative symbol 91, the jackpot start standby rendering command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 in the jackpot start standby rendering processing of S395 of the pass / fail judgment processing (FIG. 10). An affirmative determination is made in S925 of the hit type concealment rendering process (FIG. 17), and the first concealment effect execution process is performed in S935.

  When the first concealment effect is executed, as shown in FIG. 20 (g), a large car symbol 98 with a "big" mark indicating a big hit, indicating that the big hit or the small hit is not clear. A small car symbol 97 with a "small" mark indicating a small hit is moved and displayed by the same number in the horizontal scroll. In addition, by displaying as a comment of the character 92, "Please put right into the gate and check whether it is a big hit or a small hit !!", play a game of entering the gate 17 as the first combination opening by right hitting. The notification to urge the person is “999” as the decorative symbol 91 is moved to the upper left portion of the screen 6 a and displayed in a reduced size.

  When the game ball passes through the gate 17 as the first combination opening by passing the game to the right by the player, the jackpot start lottery is executed in S820 of "standby state control processing 1" (FIG. 16). In the illustrated case, the concealment effect execution command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 in S850, and the sub integrated control device 83 receives the command. By doing, the second concealment effect is executed in S945 of the hit type concealment effect process (FIG. 17). The second concealment effect is executed until either the entry to the second winning combination operation port or the passage of the small hit game time is made earlier, whichever is earlier.

  FIG. 21A shows the display mode when the second concealed effect is performed. As shown in FIG. 21 (a), only the small car symbol 97 with the "small" mark indicating a small hit is displayed, and as a comment of the character 92, "sorry .... small hit ... It returns to the left and strikes "." Is displayed. As a result, the player does not generate a big hit even when entering the first combination run opening, and mistakenly thinks that it was a small hit as a result and changes the firing intensity to left hit to resume the normal game. .

  If it is determined that the jackpot is won in the jackpot start lottery, a negative determination is made in S940 of the hit type concealment rendering process (FIG. 17), and S965 and S970 are executed, from FIG. The displays of FIG. 21 (c) and FIG. 21 (d) are directly performed.

If the small hitting game time is over before the player returns to the left and the gaming ball wins in the first starting opening 11 as the second winning combination operating opening, the hit type concealment effect processing (FIG. 17) Affirmative determination is made in S950, and by performing S960, pseudo-normal effect is performed, and the display of FIG. 21B is performed. The display mode is basically the same as the normal effect as shown in FIG. 20 (a) to FIG. 20 (c). However, only the pseudo hold storage display area 93 is displayed, and the displays of the pseudo hold storage displays 95 and 96 remain erased (displayed with broken lines for convenience).
As described above, the sub integrated control device 83 is configured to perform control so as not to display the pseudo holding storage display 95 and 96 even if the pseudo holding storage display area 93 is displayed during pseudo normal effect. There is.
As a result, it is possible to prevent the user from being suspicious about the fact that the variable display is not started with "999" as the decorative symbol 91 being stopped and displayed. That is, if the pseudo hold storage displays 95 and 96 are displayed, the time corresponding to the start interval time of the small hit game is reached, and the small hit game is over, the next time despite holding storage, If the variable display based on the pseudo retention memory display 95 is not started, the player is noticed that the display different from any fact is performed, that is, the jackpot and the dummy effect are performed even though it is a big hit. It will Therefore, with this configuration, it is possible to make it even more difficult for the player to determine whether a big hit or a small hit.

It should be noted that in addition to the configuration in which the pseudo-normal effect is performed when the small hitting game time is over before the gaming ball wins in the first starting opening 11 as the above-mentioned second winning combination operating opening, the first concealed effect If the small hitting game time is over without executing the game, even if there is no ball entering the gate 17 as the first winning combination operating opening, a notification indicating that it is a big hit and a right hitting are performed to make the first winning combination You may be comprised so that the notification which urges ball-in to the gate 17 as an operating opening may be performed.
As a result, if the small hit game time has elapsed without the player entering the first combination run port while, for example, the player can not launch the game ball for some reason, the amusement of the present invention can be performed. While preventing the player from having a sense of mistrust or developing into trouble with the hall. More specifically, in the present embodiment, the jackpot start lottery process (S820) is not executed unless the player enters the first jackpot operating port first, so the jackpot is started (the first jackpot operating port or the second jackpot operation) Triggered by entering the mouth) not only, or even if it continues to put into the first start opening 11 left as it is left, the condition device operates and the feature continuous operation device remains inactive Because the player does not even display the variable display, the player may feel distrust and may be in trouble with the hall. In this respect, as described above, by notifying immediately that it is a big hit, and further promoting the ball entering the first combination operation port, the above problems can be avoided while achieving the effects of the present invention. can do.

  In addition, when a game ball is won in the 1st starting opening 11 as the 2nd run-in series operation opening before small hitting game time ends, negative decision with S950 of hitting classification concealment production processing (figure 17) Thus, an affirmative determination is made in S965, and by performing S970, the display of FIG. 21 (c) and FIG. 21 (d) will be performed directly from FIG. 21 (a).

When the game ball is won in the first starting opening 11 as a result of left hitting in the state where the display of FIG. 21 (b) is made, an affirmative determination is made in S855 of "standby state control processing 1" (FIG. 16). And S 835 and S 840 are executed. With the execution of S 840, a positive determination is made in S965 of the hit type concealment rendering process (FIG. 17), and S970 is executed, whereby the displays of FIG. 21 (c) and FIG. 21 (d) are performed. It is informed that the game is started.
Although such a display effect causes the player to enter the first combination run opening, he is disappointed that the big hit does not start and it is a small hit, and renews the feeling toward the next change When the left strike is resumed and the first starting opening 11 (second working opening) is made a prize, it is informed of the fact that it was a big hit in a sudden collision, and it is possible to enjoy great pleasure with surprise.
In addition, even if the player who has passed the experience once is actually a small hit, his expectation can be maintained until he enters the second winning combination operating port, and the interest can be improved.

Further, in the present embodiment, the concealed effect causes the player to generate a small hit or big hit state, but if the result of the judgment of the result is a small hit, the small hit game time is over. It is not impossible to deny the possibility that the player will be informed that the game is a small hit by actually opening the special winning opening for a predetermined time and a predetermined number of times. However, it is desirable to make it easy for the player to miss this by setting the opening mode of the special winning opening extremely short and in a level that is difficult for the player to understand. In addition, by providing effects such as effect display and a frame lamp according to the timing of the big winning opening opening, it may be configured to remove the line of sight to the large winning opening opening. In such a case, it is preferable to drive the rendering device and the light emitting member at a position far from the place where the big winning opening is installed.
Modification of First Embodiment

Next, a modification of the first embodiment will be described. In this modification, the “standby state control process” performed by the main control device 80 is different from the “hit type hiding effect process” performed by the sub integrated control device 83. Therefore, only the differences are mainly described, and FIGS. 1 to 15 and FIGS. 20 and 21 except for FIGS. 16 and 17 of the first embodiment are substantially the same as this modification. The description here is omitted, and the description in the first embodiment is incorporated.
Also in the description with reference to the following drawings, the same reference numerals are given to the same components as in the first embodiment other than the difference, and the description in the first embodiment may be used appropriately omitting the description. is there.

The “standby state control process 2” and the “hit type concealment presentation process 2” of this modification will be described with reference to FIGS. 18 and 19.
In “standby state control processing 2” executed by main controller 80 of the present modification, first, the variation determined to be a big hit is attributed to the second special view caused by the ball entering second start port 12. If the determination is affirmative (S800: yes), the process directly proceeds to S835. If the determination is negative (S800: no), the process proceeds to S810.
Furthermore, in "performing type concealment rendering process 2" executed by the sub integrated control apparatus 83 according to the present modification, the big hit start rendering command is executed in S922 executed when the negative determination is made in S910, S915 and S920. It is judged whether or not it has been received (S922), and if it is affirmation determination (S922: yes), the big hit start effect execution processing of S970 is directly performed without performing the processing of S925 to S965, and if it is a denial determination (S922: no), shift to S925.

In this modification, by configuring in this manner, when the condition device is activated and the continuous item actuation device is not activated, the operation of the condition device is displayed with the big hit symbol of the second special view being stopped. In the case where the standby state control process 2 is not performed, the processes of S810 to S830 and S845 to S860 are not performed. That is, in the jackpot by the second special view, the first concealment effect and the second concealment effect are not performed, and the first concealment effect and the second concealment effect are performed only in the case of the jackpot by the first special view There is.
By configuring in this way, when playing a game by right-handing in a time-shortened state after a big hit game, if a big hit based on entering the second starting opening 12 occurs, the hiding effect of a big hit or a small hit It is possible to immediately notify the player by making a big hit start effect that is a big hit without doing a game, and prompt the player to shift to a big hit round game without letting the player change the useless firing position. It becomes.

In addition, as above-mentioned, when the big hit design of the 2nd special view is stopped and displayed in this modification, even if there is no ball entry to the first combination run opening, the operation of the immediate role thing continuous operation device is The big hit game is to be started by being started. By the way, such a configuration and operation may be provided not only in the second special view but also in the first special view. That is, even when the specific big hit symbol of the first special figure is stopped, as in the present modification, even if there is no ball entry into the first combination run opening, it is configured to start the big hit game immediately Also good. Also, even if entering the first winning combination operating port is a necessary condition, if it is stopped and displayed in the specific jackpot symbol of the first special figure, it may be possible to always win in the jackpot start lottery . That is, the jackpot symbol of the first special view may be configured to have a specific jackpot symbol that is won with a probability of 100% in the jackpot start lottery.
In addition, when it is set as mentioned above, it is a big hit clearly rather than performing the presentation of the aspect which makes it impossible to determine whether it is a big hit or a small hit as shown in FIG. 20 and FIG. It is desirable to notify a big hit by performing an effect of a recognizable aspect. By doing this, depending on the type of jackpot symbol of the first special figure (if it is a specific jackpot symbol), it is possible to hide the jackpot or jackpot and conceal the player immediately, immediately from the beginning. The player is not given unnecessary stress because it is informed that the
Second Embodiment

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, the “permission determination process” performed by the main control device 80 is different from the “standby state control process 3”. Therefore, with the exception of FIGS. 10 and 16 of the first embodiment, mainly FIGS. 1 to 9, FIGS. 11 to 15, and FIGS. Since the configuration is substantially the same as that of the embodiment, the description here is omitted and the description in the first embodiment is incorporated.
Also in the description with reference to the following drawings, the same reference numerals are given to the same components as in the first embodiment other than the difference, and the description in the first embodiment may be used appropriately omitting the description. is there.

In the first embodiment, based on entering the ball into the first combination operating port, immediately, start operating the item continuous actuating device, or start waiting for the ball into the second combination operating port Was determined by the jackpot start lottery process. However, in the present embodiment, it is a big hit as to whether the trigger for starting the operation of the bonus continuous actuation device is to enter the first combination opening or to enter the second combination opening. It is configured to be determined based on the type of symbol.
First, the difference between the success / failure determination processing of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 22, when the big hit symbol is stopped (fixed display) and the finalized display time ends (S 350: yes), the main control device 80 performs the conditional device operation start process (S 385), S 387. It is judged whether or not the jackpot is a jackpot caused by the second special figure (S387), and if it is affirmation determination (S387: yes), the process proceeds to S391 and a negative judgment is attributed to the first special figure If it is a big hit (S387: no), it will shift to S388.

The main control unit 80, in S388, either of the first combination run opening or the second combination run opening as a combination operation opening that triggers the start of operation of the item continuous operation device based on the type of the big hit symbol. Process is executed (S388). Then, in S389, it is determined whether the selected result is the first combination operating port (S389), and a negative determination, ie, the second combination operating port is selected If it is determined (S389: no), the process proceeds to S393. In the case of an affirmative determination in S389 and an affirmative determination in S387, the process proceeds to S391.
In S391, the main control device 80 sets 1 to the combination operating port flag, and sets 2 to the combination operating port flag in S393.
The combination operation opening flag indicates that 1 is set, and thus the first combination operation opening is selected as a combination operation opening that triggers the start of operation of the continuous product actuating device, and 2 is It is a flag which shows that it is set, and the 2nd duty run opening is chosen as a duty run opening which serves as a trigger of start of operation of a prize continuous actuation device.
As described above, the main control device 80 according to the present embodiment, based on the type of the jackpot symbol stopped and displayed in S 388, S 389, S 391 and S 393, a combination operation that triggers the start of operation of the bonus product continuous operation device As a mouth, it is comprised so that a 1st duty run opening or a 2nd duty run opening may be selected.
In S395, which is executed after the processing of S391 or S393, the main control apparatus 80 executes the “big hit start waiting effect processing”, and ends the present processing.
In the "big hit start standby effect processing", from the state where the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed (finalized display) and stopped, it is impossible to determine whether the result of the change is a small hit or a big hit In order to perform the concealment effect, a "big hit start waiting effect command" is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83. In other words, when the stop display is made with the jackpot symbol, the state is shifted to the jackpot start standby state.

Next, “standby state control processing 3” executed by the main control device 80 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
In “standby state control processing 3” in the present embodiment, the main control device 80 first determines in S1800 whether or not 1 is set in the combination operation opening flag (S1800), and if it is positive determination ( If the determination is negative (S1800: no), the process proceeds to S1825.
If it is determined that the winning combination operating port flag is set to 1, it is determined in S1805 whether or not the first winning combination operating port has entered the ball (S1805), and if it is affirmed determination (S1805: (Yes), the process moves to S1810, and if a negative determination is made (S1805: no), this processing ends.

If it is determined that 1 is not set in the combination operation port flag, the main control device 80 determines whether or not 2 is set in the combination operation port flag in S1825 (S1825), affirmation If the determination is made (S1825: yes), the process proceeds to S1830, and if the determination is negative (S1825: no), that is, if 0 is set, the present process ends.
In S1830, main control device 80 determines whether or not 0 is set in the “hiding effect execution flag” (S1830), and in the case of positive determination, that is, 0 is set (S1830: yes), S1835 The processing shifts, and when a negative determination is made, that is, 1 is set (S1830: no), the processing shifts to S1850.
At S1835, main control device 80 determines whether or not the game ball has entered the first combination opening (S1835), and if a positive determination is made (S1835: yes), processing is performed at S1840. It transfers and a negative determination, ie, when not entering a ball (S1835: no), a process is transfered to SS1850.
If the main control device 80 enters the first combination run port while 2 is set in the combination run port flag, the main control apparatus 80 sets 1 to the “Hiding effect execution flag” in S1840 (S1840 The concealment effect execution process is performed in S1845, the concealment effect execution command is transmitted to the sub integrated control apparatus 83, and the process proceeds to S1850.
The “hidden effect execution flag” is a flag indicating that “the second concealed effect” in the present embodiment is being executed by setting “1”.

When the “hiding effect execution flag” is not 0 (S1830: no), the main control device 80 does not enter the first winning combination operating port (S1835: no), and the concealed effect execution process (S1845) After the processing, it is determined in S1850 whether or not the gaming ball has entered the second winning combination operating port (S1850). If a positive determination is made (S1850: yes), the processing is shifted to S1855. If the negative determination is not made, ie, the player does not enter the ball (S1850: no), the process ends.
In S1855, main controller 80 determines whether or not the “hiding effect execution flag” is 1 (S1855), and in the case of a positive determination (S1855: yes), the process proceeds to S1860, in the case of a negative determination ( S1855: no), the process proceeds to S1810.
In S1860, main controller 80 sets “the concealment effect execution flag” to 0, and the process proceeds to S1810.

The main control unit 80 starts the operation of the continuous product actuating device at S1805 if the determination is affirmative (S1805: yes) at S1805, negative determination at S1855 (S1855: no), or S1810 proceeds after S1860 is executed. A process is performed (S1810), and then a big hit start rendering process is executed (S1815), a combination operation opening flag is set to 0 at S1820, and this process is ended.
In the big hit start effect processing, the command to start the big hit game and information related to the big hit game (opening time of big hit, opening pattern, ending time of big hit, number of rounds, etc.) are transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83.

As described above, when the first combination operation port is selected by the “standby state control process 3”, the main control device 80 of the present embodiment moves to the first combination operation port during the jackpot start standby state. Immediately upon entering the ball, the big hit start standby state is canceled and the big hit game is started, and when the second combination operation port is selected, the game is waiting for the ball to enter the second combination operation port and the big hit It is configured to release the start standby state and start the big hit game.
By configuring in this way, based on the type of the jackpot symbol, the combination operating port that triggers the start of the operation of the item continuous operating device is selected from among the first combination operating port and the second combination operating port can do.
Note that, in the present embodiment, the selection rate of the second engagement link is set higher than that of the first engagement link. That is, among a plurality of types of jackpot symbols, a majority of the types are configured to correspond to the second combination operation opening.
As a result, it is possible to naturally promote the player to aim at the second winning combination operating port first, that is, to hit the right.

In the present embodiment, when the small hit gaming time is over before the gaming ball wins in the first combination operating port while the combination operation port flag is set to 1, it is a big hit. It may be configured to perform notification of a certain effect and notification of right hitting to prompt entry to the gate 17 as the first combination opening.
As a result, if the small hit game time has elapsed without the player entering the first combination run port while, for example, the player can not launch the game ball for some reason, the amusement of the present invention can be performed. While preventing the player from having a sense of mistrust or developing into trouble with the hall. More specifically, in the present embodiment, when the combination operation opening flag is set to 1 in S391, the jackpot does not start unless the player enters the first combination operation opening, and it is left as it is. Even if the player continues to enter the first starting opening 11 by hitting, the condition device is activated and the continuous item actuating device is maintained in the non-operating state, and therefore the player is distrusted as the variable display is not performed. I feel a sense and I can be in trouble with the hall. In this respect, as described above, by notifying immediately that it is a big hit, and further promoting the ball entering the first combination operation port, the above problems can be avoided while achieving the effects of the present invention. can do.

In addition, it is not necessary to always carry out the effect display when 1 or 2 is set to the combination operation opening flag in a mode that can not be determined as a small hit. For example, when the jackpot symbol for which the combination operation opening flag is to be set to 1 is stopped and displayed, it may be notified immediately from the beginning that it is a big hit.
As a result, depending on the type of the jackpot symbol, the concealment effect is executed and the interest is sustained, or the player is informed quickly that it is a jackpot and the player is quickly rejoiced, thereby improving the interest. be able to.
[Other modification]

As another modification of the present invention, a detection device for detecting a so-called "number of balls" that can be shot at the game area at the current time is provided, and the "number of balls" is less than a predetermined number (for example, ten). It is configured to be able to execute a determination process of determining whether or not there is any. Furthermore, when it is determined that the determination result is equal to or less than a predetermined number, and the big hit symbol is stopped, the sub integrated control device 83 produces a big hit notification effect indicating that it is a big hit, the effect symbol display device 6 etc. It may be used to execute.
In this modification, in the case of a configuration in which the game balls are paid out to the player, the upper plate may be equipped with a game ball detection switch to perform detection. Further, in the case of the enclosed type game machine, the ball number data may be referred to.
By configuring in this manner, the player who has a small number of held balls is notified immediately of facts so as not to be mistaken for being a small hit and lose a large gain despite being a big hit. can do.

As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, unless it deviates from the technical thought of this invention, it does not limit to the form mentioned above.
For example, in the second embodiment, the configuration may be configured to execute “left-hand drive promotion notification effect” to urge to hit the left gaming area provided with the second winning combination operation port.
As a result, it is possible to promote the player to strike the second winning combination operating port first and hit the left.

In addition, when a big hit is started based on entering the ball to the second winning combination operation opening, if the number of pending storage by the pending storage means is a predetermined number or more, a pseudo effect mode that can not be distinguished from the effect mode in the normal state It may be configured to indicate that the big hit is activated by entering the second combination run port without displaying the effect at the second stage.
As a result, when there is a predetermined number or more of pending storages, the configuration in which the player is mistaken as if there is no pending storage and the player enters the starting opening feels the player's distrust. In this regard, by notifying the big hit if it is a predetermined number or more, it is possible to prevent the player from having a bad feeling without causing the player to enter the starting opening more than the predetermined number in vain.
In addition, since symbol variations such as a big hit basically take a long time, the player tends to stop firing even if only a sufficient number of pending memories are stored. However, the player is notified that the jackpot is a big hit even if the symbol per false share is displayed on the condition that the suspended memory is stored to a certain extent, so the player tries to store as much suspended memory as possible. Improve the rate.

In addition, the starting port and the common drawing operating gate having the function of the service opening may be configured to stop the original function of the starting port and the gate when performing the service operating function. That is, in the period in which the function of the combination operation is activated, the configuration may be specialized for the function.
By configuring in this way, the risk of control troubles caused by performing two functions at the same time can be reduced.

In addition, as exemplified in the above-described embodiment, the main control means is configured to handle the first combination operation opening by using different functions of the first combination operation opening and the normal symbol operation gate in one configuration. It is preferable to provide an open lottery means for performing an open lottery whether or not to normally open the electrically operated combination by entering the ball.
By doing this, it is possible to reduce the number of parts constituting the ball and ball game machine, and to reduce the cost. Also, the game area can be used effectively with ample margin.

In addition, as exemplified in the above-described embodiment, the main control unit is configured to handle the second combination operation opening by using different functions of the second combination operation opening and the first start opening in one configuration. It is preferable to provide a lottery means for performing a lottery for a special symbol by entering the ball to the player.
By doing this, it is possible to reduce the number of parts constituting the ball and ball game machine, and to reduce the cost. Also, the game area can be used effectively with ample margin.

In addition, unlike the above-described embodiment, the first engagement link operating port and the second engagement link activation port may be individually provided without being shared with other configurations.
As a result, it is possible to avoid control problems due to the combination of a single configuration and a plurality of functions, and to allow the player to clearly recognize the functions of the individual configurations.

Also, although not shown in the above-described embodiment, similar to the standby state control process in the special game process, in the small hitting game process, the ball entering the first combination run opening is confirmed, and based on the result The predetermined command may be transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83, and the sub integrated control device 83 may be configured to change the effect display mode in the small hit game based on the reception of the predetermined command.
In this way, it is possible to make it more difficult to distinguish the concealment effect to be performed when a big hit occurs.

The second special view based on the winning on the second starting opening 12 may not have a small hit.
As a result, during the opening extension state of the second starting opening 12 consisting of the ordinary motorized part, it is possible to prevent the player from being stressed by not generating the indeterminate state whether it is a small hit or a big hit. You can enjoy the game.

Moreover, in each embodiment mentioned above, the 2nd winning combination operation port provided in the left game area illustrated the composition which combines the 1st starting opening 11. FIG. However, the target with which the second role link operating port doubles as a function is not limited to the first start port 11. For example, in addition to the gate 17 which is a device for acquiring numerical data related to the normal lottery of the symbol, a second gate is provided in the left game area, and the second gate and the second opening link are used in common. You may do it. In this case, main controller 80 executes the normal power long open where the open time of the normal motorized part (second start port 12) is longer than the normal open based on the winning of the normal symbol during the normal state It is preferable to control so that it may. In addition, it is preferable that the normal motorized character (the second starting opening 12) is provided at a position where it is possible to enter a game ball that flows down either the left game area or the right game area.
That is, the present embodiment is configured to be able to be divided into the left or right gaming area in normal time and short time, but in the case where the ordinary electric role in normal time is provided with the above-mentioned universal power long opening, It is necessary to provide the second gate in the left game area.
As described above, the second start-up port 11 can be operated as a second run-on operation by using the second gate whose winning percentage is generally set higher than the first start-up port 11 also as the second run-on operation port. It is possible to prevent a situation in which a big hit does not easily occur without entering the second gear combination operating port as compared with the case where it is used also as a mouth.

Furthermore, when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, the standby state control process of the present invention is not performed at all times, but it is executed only in the special big hit symbol of the big hit symbols, and in the case of other big hit symbols, no fake You may start a big hit.
This makes the presentation more colorful and improves interest.
