  A preferred embodiment of the gaming machine according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

The slot machine 1 is an embodiment of the gaming machine according to the present invention, and includes a housing 1b having an opening on the front surface and a front door 1a that covers the opening so as to be openable and closable, like a normal slot machine. I have.
The front door 1a is configured so that three consecutive symbols (identification information) displayed on the reels 41a to 41c can be identified from outside the machine, and a plurality of operation means (bet buttons 2a, The housing 1b includes a start lever 3, a stop button 5), and a plurality of devices such as a drum unit 4 for rotatingly driving the reels 41a to 41c, a medal payout device 7 for paying out medals, and a main control unit 10 operating as a computer. , A sub control unit 20 and the like.

  Such a slot machine 1 is configured to be capable of executing the following slot machine games by the main control unit 10 operating as a winning combination determining means or the like.

At the start of the game, a multiplier is set using medals (including credit medals).
There are a method of setting the number of multiplications by inserting medals directly from the medal insertion slot 2 and a method of setting by pressing the bet button 2a.

In the method of setting the number of medals by inserting medals from the medal insertion slot 2, the inserted medals are detected by a medal selector 2b provided on the back surface of the front door 1a, and the number of medals corresponding to the number of inserted medals is detected. The number (however, the upper limit is the multiplier "3" corresponding to three medals) is set.
Note that the upper limit of the multiplier may be “1”, “2”, or “4” or more.

The bet button 2a (for example, a max bet button) is an example of an operation unit capable of accepting a player's operation related to the setting of the number of bets, and when this is pressed, a credit medal stored as data internally , A predetermined number (for example, three) of medals is subtracted, and the subtracted amount is set as a multiplier.
The bet button is not limited to the bet button 2a, and a plurality of bet buttons having different numbers of bets set may be provided. Further, the credit medals are added by inserting medals from the medal insertion slot 2 or by winning a prize. For example, up to 50 medals can be credited (stored).

As described above, the number set by the direct insertion from the medal insertion slot 2 or the pressing operation of the bet button 2a is stored in a storage unit such as a RAM provided in the main control unit 10.
Then, when the multiplier reaches a predetermined number (for example, three), a game in which the right to execute a single game is held can be started.

In a state where the game can be started, the operation of the start lever 3 is in a valid state. In this effective state, when the start lever 3 is tilted, the game is started, the reels 41a to 41c with a plurality of symbols start to change, and a plurality of winning combinations such as a replay role and a small role. An internal lottery process of determining the lottery result of the current game from among (including the loss) before stopping the reel 41 is executed (winning combination determination means).
In the internal lottery process, the winning combination of the current game is determined from a plurality of winning combinations by lottery based on a predetermined winning probability.
In the present embodiment, the internal lottery process is completed before the reels 41a to 41c, which will be described later, reach steady rotation, but may be completed before the reels 41a to 41c start rotating. .

Each of the reels 41a to 41c is an example of a variable display unit. On the peripheral surface of each of the reels 41a to 41c, as shown in FIG. “Watermelon”, “Cherry”, “Red 7”, “White 7”, “BAR”, “Blank A”, “Blank B”, and “Red blank” are respectively shown, and the rotation speed gradually from the stopped state , And reaches a steady rotation at a constant speed.
When such a steady rotation is reached, the stop buttons 5a to 5c provided corresponding to the respective reels 41a to 41c enter a state in which the stop buttons 5a to 5c can be pressed (operation of the stop button 5 is enabled).

  The stop buttons 5a to 5c are an example of operation means for performing an operation such as a specific operation. For example, the stop buttons 5a to 5c are in a state in which a press operation can be performed by turning on a light emitting unit such as an LED built in the stop buttons 5a to 5c. When the stop button 5 is pressed in such a state, the reels 41a to 41c are stopped and controlled so that the reels 41a to 41c are stopped at a combination of symbols permitted by the operation timing and the lottery result of the internal lottery process. You.

In the stop state, three vertically continuous symbols shown on the reels 41a to 41c are stopped (also referred to as a stop display) so as to face the outside of the machine from the display window 6, and the stop display mode at this time is changed. Based on the winning, it is determined.
In the present embodiment, the determination of the winning is made based on a combination of symbols stopped only on the middle one line among the upper, middle, and lower lines, the lower right line, and the upper right line. ing.
The number of activated lines (winning lines) for determining a winning is not particularly limited, and can be changed as appropriate according to the relationship between the arrangement of the symbols, the type of the symbols, the combination of the symbols corresponding to the winning combination, and the like.

The combinations of symbols to be determined are roughly classified into a combination of symbols corresponding to the replay combination (see FIG. 5) and a combination of symbols corresponding to other than the replay combination (see FIG. 6). One or more combinations of symbols are associated with each other.
When a plurality of combinations of symbols are associated with one winning combination, the combinations of symbols to be stopped and displayed differ according to the pressing order and operation timing of the stop buttons 5a to 5c. .
5 and 6, the symbols in the "combination of symbols" column indicate stop symbols on the winning line in the order of "left reel 41a-middle reel 41b-right reel 41c" from the left.
The “push order” column indicates the push order for establishing the symbol combination shown in the “symbol combination” column. , "Right" means the stop button 5c, and "1st" means the stop button that stops first.

  As shown in FIG. 5, as a combination of symbols corresponding to the replay combination, a normal replay (“replay / replay / replay”) and a special replay 1 (“replay / replay / red 7 / white 7 / BAR / blank B”) , Special replay 2 ("BAR / BAR / BAR"), special replay 3 ("bell / BAR / BAR" etc.), special replay 4 ("bell / bell / BAR" etc.), special replay 5 ("replay / watermelon"・ Replay ”), Special Replay 6 (“ Replay / Replay / Watermelon ”), W Red 7 Replay (Red Blank / Red 7 / Red Blank), S Red 7 Replay (“ Watermelon / Red 7 / Red Blank ”etc.), Gase Red 7 Replay ("Bell / Red 7 / Red Blank" etc.) is available.

The "special replay 1", "special replay 5", and "special replay 6" are stopped by operating the stop buttons 5a to 5c in the pressing order shown in FIG. 5, and are switched from the current gaming state to another gaming state. It is designed to function as a state transition trigger which is a transition trigger.
For example, “special replay 1” and “special replay 6” function as promotion replays that trigger a transition to another gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than the current gaming state.
The “special replay 5” functions as a fall replay that triggers a transition to another game state that is more disadvantageous to the player than the current game state.
“W Red 7 Replay”, “S Red 7 Replay”, and “Gase Red 7 Replay” are winning combinations to be drawn in the case of a “bonus game state” (hereinafter, also simply referred to as “bonus”) described later. When "W Red 7 Replay" or "S Red 7 Replay" is won, a privilege (execution right (rush stock described later) that can execute the advantageous game state) advantageous to the player is given. I have.

Further, as a combination of symbols corresponding to the role of a bell, as shown in FIG. , Common bell ("Replay Bell Replay"), and strong bell ("Bell Bell Bell" etc.).
The “push order bells 1 to 12” are winning combinations for which the push order is designated, and by operating the stop buttons 5a to 5c in the operation order corresponding to the push order shown in FIG. Is stopped.
Specifically, when the "push order bell" is stopped by operating the stop buttons 5a to 5c in the specified operation order, nine payouts are made. On the other hand, when the stop buttons 5a to 5c are not operated in the designated operation order, one medal is awarded if the combination of the symbols corresponding to the one-copies A to J can be stopped.
In addition, if the stop buttons 5a to 5c are not operated in the designated operation order and if the combination of the symbols corresponding to the single-copies A to J cannot be stopped, the "push order bell" is missed, A predetermined combination of symbols (such as "Replay Cherry Bell") is stopped (hereinafter, this combination of symbols is called "bell spilled eyes"), and no payout is made.

In addition, as a combination of symbols corresponding to the role of cherry, weak cherry ("BAR / watermelon cherry replay"), strong cherry ("BAR / watermelon cherry red7 / white7 / BAR / blank B"), There is the strongest cherry ("Cherry / ANY / ANY" (where ANY is an arbitrary pattern)).
There is a watermelon (“bell / watermelon / red 7 / white 7 / BAR / blank B”) as a combination of symbols corresponding to the watermelon role, and a chance (“bell watermelon”・ Replay ”).

As a combination of symbols corresponding to the bonus combination, a normal bonus (“red 7, red 7, red 7 blank”), a super bonus (“red 7, red 7, red 7”), and a white bonus (“white 7, white 7,. White 7 ").
The bonus combination is a winning combination that can carry over the winning right as long as the combination of the corresponding symbols is not stopped in the game won and the game after the game. For this reason, the established state of the bonus winning is maintained until the bonus combination is won by stopping the combination of the corresponding symbols (hereinafter, this gaming state is referred to as “bonus internal winning state”).

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, one or more winning combinations are associated with each winning type.
In the replay combination, replay A to replay J3 are provided as winning types.
For example, "Normal replay" is associated with replay A, "Special replay 1" is associated with replay B, and "Normal replay" and "Special replay 5" are associated with replay H1. Replay J1 is associated with “special replay 5” and “special replay 1”.
In the role of a bell, bells A1 to H are provided as winning types.
For example, the bell A1 is associated with “push order bell 1”, “one sheet combination A” and “one sheet combination B”, the bell G is associated with “common bell”, and the bell H Is associated with “strong bell”.
It should be noted that the bells A1 to F2 have a property as a "duplicate combination" that can be simultaneously won for a plurality of types of winning combinations in one internal lottery.

In the replay combination, the winning combination (winning type) to be subjected to the internal lottery differs depending on the current game state.
For example, during RT0, replay A is a lottery target, during RT1, replays I1 to I3 are lottery targets, during RT2, replay A, replays H1 to H3 and replays J1 to J3 are lottery targets, and during RT3, Replay A, Replay B, and Replays H1 to H3 are to be drawn, and during RT4, Replay A, Replay B, and Replay I are to be drawn, and during the bonus ("Super Bonus" and "White Bonus"), "Replay" E, replay F, and replay G "are the lottery targets (see FIGS. 9 to 16).
The details of the RT state (RT0 to RT4) will be described later.

As for the replay combination, as shown in the “stop display” column of FIG. 5, a combination is set in which the symbols do not stop (are not aligned) even if the winning combination is won. For example, when the winning type is “Replay E”, the winning combinations other than “Normal Replay” and “W Red 7 Replay” do not stop the symbols.
As described above, by providing a winning combination in which the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination does not actually occur, the winning probability of each winning combination can be adjusted and set.

When it is determined that the combination of the symbols corresponding to the small combinations described above has stopped on the winning line, a game value corresponding to each combination of the symbols is given.
For example, the small combination winning is determined by stopping the combination of the symbols corresponding to the small combination such as the bell combination, the cherry combination, and the watermelon combination. , A predetermined number of medals are paid out through the medal payout exit 7b.
Specifically, nine medals are paid out by stopping the combination of the symbols corresponding to the bell role, and three medals are paid out by the stop display of the combination of the symbols corresponding to the watermelon role, and the medal is responded to the cherry role. One medal is paid out by the stop display of the symbol combination to be performed, and one medal is paid out by stopping the symbol combination corresponding to the chance combination.
Note that the payout of medals may be configured so that only the amount exceeding the maximum number of credit medals is paid out. However, by operating a predetermined setting button (not shown) in advance, a prize is generated every time a prize is generated. May be paid out.
Further, by stopping the combination of the symbols corresponding to the replay combination, the replay winning is determined, and the game can be played without inserting medals in the next game, that is, without spending medals.

The winning probability of the small role is the relationship of “common bell”> “weak cherry”>“watermelon”> “strong cherry”>“chance”> “strong bell” in all the RT states (RT0 to RT4) described later. (See FIGS. 9 to 13).
Note that the relationship of “strong cherry”> “chance” may be the relationship of “chance”> “strong cherry” depending on the winning combination that is simultaneously won. For example, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 13, when “strong cherry” and “chance” are simultaneously won with “normal bonus” and “white bonus”, “strong cherry”> “strong” according to the game setting value “Chance” or “Chance”> “Strong Cherry” (for example, “Red BB + Cherry B” and “Red BB + Chance”, “White BB + Cherry B” and “White BB + Chance”).
In addition, the winning combination has a winning probability that fluctuates according to a six-step set value (hereinafter referred to as a game setting value) set in the slot machine 1, and a winning probability that fluctuates according to the game setting value. No winning role is provided.
For example, "weak cherry" is provided as a winning combination whose winning probability varies according to the game setting value, and a winning combination other than "weak cherry" is provided as a winning combination whose winning probability does not vary according to the game setting value. Have been.
Specifically, the “weak cherry” has, for example, a winning probability of 1150/65536 at the time of setting 1, a winning probability of 1180/65536 at the time of setting 2, a winning probability of 1210/65536 at the time of setting 3, and a setting of 1210/65536. The winning probability at the time of 4 is 1240/65536, the winning probability at the setting 5 is 1270/65536, and the winning probability at the setting 6 is 1300/65536. 1 to 6) are set differently.
On the other hand, for example, “watermelon” has the winning probability of the settings 1 to 6 set to the same winning probability in all six game setting values, such as 850/65536.
In addition, the winning combination whose winning probability varies according to the game setting value and the winning combination whose winning probability does not vary according to the game setting value are not limited to these, and can be arbitrarily set.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in the slot machine game in which the above-described series of operations is performed as a single game, the main control unit 10 controls the operation means such as the bet button 2a, the start lever 3, and the stop button 5, and the medal selector. This is realized by controlling output means such as the drum unit 4 including the reels 41a to 41c and the pulse motor for rotating these reels and the medal payout device 7 based on input information from input means such as 2b.

  In the slot machine 1, a game effect synchronized with such a slot machine game is also performed. For example, an image effect indicating a transition to an RT state and an AT state, a fanfare sound, a lamp effect, and the like are respectively provided with a display 8 such as a liquid crystal TV, a speaker 9, a lamp 11 including light emitting means such as an LED, and a three-digit. The information is output via a notifying means such as a 7-segment display 14 composed of 7-segments.

The sub-control unit 20 is configured to be able to execute an operation according to a command from the main control unit 10.
For example, the sub-control unit 20 transmits a control command transmitted at predetermined game timings from a transmission unit such as an output port provided in the main control unit 10 to a reception unit such as an input port provided in the sub-control unit 20. In addition to receiving the command via the control unit, the control unit decodes the received control command and controls a notification unit such as the display unit 8 to perform an effect according to the control command.

The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment has a game state as described below and a characteristic game property based on the game state, in addition to the same configuration as the ordinary slot machine.
The slot machine 1 has a state transition diagram shown in FIG. 7 and a plurality of game states (RT states) to be shifted based on the entry trigger and the end trigger shown in FIG.

(RT state)
The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment has a state of RT0 to 4 (hereinafter, also simply referred to as RT0 to 4) and a bonus game state. In each game state, the main control unit 10 operates as a game state control unit. By doing so, each game state is controlled (hereinafter, also referred to as transition).
RT0 to RT4 are game states that are classified according to the difference in the winning probability of the replay combination selected in the internal lottery process, and each has the following characteristics.

For example, RT0 is set to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 7.3 in the internal lottery process, and is a gaming state that is more disadvantageous to the player than RT2 and RT3 in the replay combination winning probability.
This RT0 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state and shifts to another game state.

Specifically, the entry into RT0 is triggered by power-on or the end of a bonus accompanied by operation of a predetermined initialization switch or the like, and thereafter, the process proceeds to RT0.
In addition, the end of RT0 is triggered by the fact that “Pushing Bells 1 to 12” are missed at the time of winning of “Pushing Bells 1 to 12” in RT0, and “Bell Spilling Eyes” is stopped. , RT0 to RT1.
The end of RT0 is triggered by the winning of the bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT0, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT0 to RT4.
As described above, RT0 is not a finite game state in which the game period is determined in advance, but is an infinite game state (infinite) in which the game does not shift to another game state unless "bell spilling eyes" is stopped or a bonus is won. RT).

RT1 is set so as to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 7.3 in the internal lottery process, and is in a gaming state that is more disadvantageous to the player than the RT2 and RT3 in the replay combination winning probability.
The RT1 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state and shifts to another game state.

Specifically, the entry into RT1 is triggered by the stoppage of "bell spilling eyes" at the time of winning of "push order bells 1 to 12" in RT0, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT0 to RT1.
The entry into RT1 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 5 (falling replay)” in RT2 and RT3, and thereafter, the process proceeds from RT2 and RT3 to RT1.
The end of RT1 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 6 (promotion replay)” in RT1, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT1 to RT2.
The end of RT1 is triggered by the winning of the bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT1, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT1 to RT4.
As described above, the RT1 is not in a finite game state in which the game period is determined in advance, and other game states are not provided unless the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 6 (promotion replay)” is stopped or a bonus is won. An infinite game state (infinite RT) that does not shift to a state.

RT2 is set so as to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 1.4 in the internal lottery process, and is a gaming state more advantageous to the player than RT0 and RT1 in the replay combination winning probability.
This RT2 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state and shifts to another game state.

Specifically, the entry into RT2 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 6 (promotion replay)” in RT1, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT1 to RT2.
The end of RT2 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 1 (promotion replay)” in RT1, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT2 to RT3.
The end of RT2 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 5 (falling replay)” in RT2, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT2 to RT1.
The end of RT2 is triggered by the winning of the bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT2, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT2 to RT4.
As described above, the RT2 is not a finite game state in which the game period is determined in advance, but the stop of the combination of the symbols corresponding to the “special replay 1 (promotion replay)” and the “special replay 5 (falling replay)”, or Unless a bonus is won, the game is in an infinite game state (infinite RT) in which the game does not shift to another game state.

RT3 is set so as to win the replay combination with a probability of 1 / 1.4 in the internal lottery process, and is a gaming state more advantageous to the player than RT0 and RT1 in the replay combination winning probability.
This RT3 enters this state when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and ends this state and shifts to another game state.

Specifically, the entry into RT3 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 1 (promotion replay)” in RT2, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT2 to RT3.
The end of RT3 is triggered by the stop of the combination of symbols corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" in RT3, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT3 to RT1.
The end of RT3 is triggered by the winning of the bonus combination in the internal lottery process performed in RT3, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT3 to RT4.
As described above, the RT3 is not in a finite game state in which the game period is set in advance, and other game states are not provided unless the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 5 (falling replay)” is stopped or a bonus is won. An infinite game state (infinite RT) that does not shift to a state.

RT4 is set so as to win the replay role with a probability of 1 / 6.0 in the internal lottery process, and is more advantageous to the player than RT0 and RT1 in the probability of winning the replay role, and is more player than RT2 and RT3. Is a disadvantageous gaming state.
This RT4 enters this state with the satisfaction of a predetermined condition as an opportunity, and ends this state and shifts to another game state.

Specifically, the entry to RT4 is triggered by the winning of the bonus combination in the internal lottery process during RT1 to RT3, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT1 to RT4.
The end of RT4 is triggered by the stop of the combination of bonus symbols, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT4 to a bonus.
In this way, RT4 is a bonus internal winning state, and is not a finite gaming state with a predetermined gaming period, but an infinite gaming state (infinite) in which the game does not shift to another gaming state unless the combination of bonus symbols is stopped. RT).

The bonus enters when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and shifts to another game state after the bonus ends.
Specifically, the entry into the bonus is triggered by the stop of the combination of the bonus symbols at RT4, and thereafter, the process shifts from RT4 to the bonus.
In addition, for example, in the case of a normal bonus, the bonus is terminated when a payout of more than 162 medals is paid out, and in the case of a super bonus, the bonus is ended when a payout exceeding 306 is paid out. In the case of the bonus, the payout exceeding 216 is triggered, and thereafter, the process shifts from the bonus to RT0.
As described above, the bonus is a finite game state that ends with the payout of the predetermined number.

From the description of RT0 to RT4 and the bonus as described above, RT2 and RT3 are in a gaming state that is relatively advantageous to the player in the winning probability of the replay role than RT0 and RT1.
In addition, the bonus is in a gaming state in which the bonus is more advantageous than the RT0 to RT4 in the winning probability of the small role such as the bell role.
In the present embodiment, a plurality of such RT states having different degrees of advantage are provided, and a transition is made from RT0 to RT1, which is relatively disadvantageous to the player, or to RT2, 3, which is relatively advantageous to the player. The game has a game property of shifting to a bonus by winning a bonus.
In addition, since the AT state described later overlaps in the RT2 and RT3, the state becomes the ART state, so that the game has the game property of increasing the number of medals in hand with the RT2 and RT3 and a bonus.

  In such a game, it is preferable for the player to shift (promote) from RT1 to RT2, and it is more preferable for the player to shift (promote) from RT2 to RT3. Then, it is most preferable for the player not to shift (fall) from RT2, 3 to RT1.

Therefore, a combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 6 (promotion replay)” to shift from RT1 to RT2, a combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 1 (promotion replay)” to shift from RT2 to RT3, RT2, Since the combination of symbols corresponding to “special replay 5 (falling replay)” which is shifted from 3 to RT1 is stopped by the difference in the pressing order of the stop button 5, the symbol corresponding to the promotion replay is used in RT1 and RT2. It is preferable for the player to operate the stop button 5 so as to stop the combination of, or at RT2, 3 so that the fall replay does not stop.
However, whether or not these special replays have been won is apparently indistinguishable, and the stop button 5 is operated so that the combination of symbols corresponding to these special replays stops or does not stop. You will not be able to do it.

  Therefore, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the order of pressing the stop button 5 and the symbol or the like as a guide of the pressing are notified (navigated) through the notification means such as the display 8 over the predetermined number of games. As a result, a privilege of assisting the promotion replay to stop or the fall replay not to stop is given to the player, and the promotion from RT1 to RT2, from RT2 to RT3, and the support at RT3 are supported. Has become.

Specifically, as a notification example of the pressing order (information on the specific operation), when a special replay 6 is won during RT1, a combination of symbols corresponding to the special replay 6 (“replay / replay / watermelon”) is displayed. The display 8 displays “left → middle → right” and the like, and outputs respective sounds from the speaker 9 in the order of “left”, “middle”, “right”.
At this time, the navigation lamp 12 is turned on in the corresponding order “12a → 12b → 12c”.
That is, the operation on the stop button 5 is navigated through notification means such as the display 8, the speaker 9, and the navigation lamp 12.
As a result, the special replay 6 is stopped when the player operates the stop button 5 in accordance with the navigation (notification).
Such a game state in which the order of pressing performed over a predetermined number of games is notified is called AT (AT state) (assist time).
Such an AT is provided to a player by lottery.

(AT state)
For example, in RT1, when an AT transition winning combination set as a winning combination related to the transition of the AT state is won, an “AT transition lottery process” for transition to the AT state is performed.
As the AT transfer winning combination, for example, so-called rare roles such as "weak cherry", "watermelon", "strong cherry", and "strong bell" are set, and when the rare role is won in the internal lottery process, AT transition lottery processing is performed based on the winning probability for each game setting value.

  The number of AT games after the transition to the AT state is stored in the storage means in the RAM or the like in the main control unit 10, and decreases as the game progresses as described later, but this number of AT games exists. As far as possible, promotion to the RT state favorable for the player and prevention of falling to the RT state unfavorable for the player are supported.

  Specifically, when a special replay 6 (elevated replay) is won at RT1, the corresponding pressing order is notified (navigated), and the stop button 5 is operated in accordance with the notification to thereby perform the special operation. The combination of symbols corresponding to "Replay 6 (promotion replay)" is stopped, and as a result, it is possible to promote from RT1 to RT2.

  Further, when the player wins the "special replay 1 (elevated replay)" at RT2, the corresponding pressing order is notified (navigated), and the stop button 5 is operated in accordance with the notification, thereby the "special replay 1 (elevated replay 1)" is operated. The combination of symbols corresponding to "promotion replay)" stops, and as a result, it becomes possible to promote from RT2 to RT3.

  Further, when the player wins the "special replay 5 (fall replay)" at RT2 and RT3, the pressing order in which the combination of the corresponding symbols does not stop is notified (navigated), and the stop button 5 is operated according to the notification. As a result, the symbol corresponding to "special replay 5 (falling replay)" does not stop, and as a result, it is possible to stay at RT2, 3 without falling from RT2, 3 to RT1.

In addition, as long as the number of AT games is present in RT1 to RT3, when the "push order bells 1 to 12" (third winning combination) is won, the corresponding push order is notified, and the stop button 5 is pressed in accordance with the notification. Is operated (specific operation) to stop at a combination of symbols corresponding to the "push order bell" (specific stop display mode), and as a result, nine medals are awarded.
In addition, if the stop button 5 is operated (non-specific operation) without following the notification of the pressing order, the combination of the symbols corresponding to the single-copies A to J (non-specific stop display mode) can be stopped. One medal will be awarded.
In addition, by operating the stop button 5 without following the notification of the pressing order (non-specific operation), it is not possible to stop the combination of the symbols corresponding to the one-sheet combinations A to J (non-specific stop display mode). For example, "Bell spilled eyes" (no payout) is stopped and displayed.
In particular, in RT2 and RT3, in addition to the privilege of winning the replay role with a probability of 1 / 1.4, as long as the number of AT games exists, when the "push order bell" is won, the push corresponding to the bell role is performed. Since the order is notified (navigated) and nine medals are awarded, a medal awarding privilege is also added, and the gaming state is most advantageous for a player who can expect an increase in medals.

As described above, the number of AT games is positioned as the number of games for maintaining a state advantageous to the player.
Also, since the number of AT games (specific value) is a numerical value that decreases in accordance with the progress of the game, the “AT remaining” is used to indicate how long the AT state will continue based on the currently running game. The number of games is preferably stored and managed in a storage unit (specific value management unit) such as a RAM of the main control unit 10, and is preferably notified to the player via a predetermined notification unit.
For example, it is preferable to display “the number of remaining AT games” on the display 8. The “number of remaining AT games” displayed on the display 8 is stored and managed in a storage unit such as a RAM of the sub-control unit 20.
However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the “number of remaining AT games” may be displayed as 7-segment dots on the 7-segment display 14.

  In the present embodiment, the specific value is the number of AT games. However, the present invention is not limited to this as long as the AT state can be managed. For example, the number of small role wins such as a bell, the number of obtained medals, and the payout of medals. The number of medals, the difference between medals (difference between inserted medals and paid-out medals), the number of sets (the number of rush stocks, the number of special stocks), and the like can be set to specific values.

  Further, as described above, the number of AT games (specific value) is reduced in accordance with the progress of the game, and the AT state is not limited to the method of continuing the AT state until reaching a predetermined numerical value (zero). Accordingly, a counter (count value) for adding +1 (increment) may be provided, and the AT state may be continued until the count value reaches the number of AT games.

Further, in the AT state, when a winning combination such as a rare combination is won, a benefit advantageous to the player may be further provided.
For example, in the AT state, when a lottery is performed in a lottery process for giving a privilege, a right (special stock described later) that can execute another game state in the advantageous game state is given.

Thus, the slot machine 1 is configured to be able to control a plurality of RT states and AT states by operating the main control unit 10 as a game state control unit.
In addition, in the slot machine 1, in addition to the above configuration, the main control unit 10 controls the condition satisfaction determination unit, the privilege provision unit, the reference value determination unit, the winning combination determination unit, the specific value management unit, the increase number determination unit, By operating as the magnification determining means, the confirmed increase number calculating means and the specific value increasing means, and by operating the sub-control unit 20 as the specific effect executing means, the following characteristic game characteristics can be realized. Is configured.

In the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the main control unit 10 cooperates with the sub-control unit 20 to transition between a plurality of types of game states (stages) as shown in FIG. Have.
Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 17, each gaming state and state transition will be described.

The gaming state is roughly divided into a “non-bonus gaming state” and a “bonus gaming state”, and the “non-bonus gaming state” is divided into a “normal gaming state” and an “advantaged gaming state”.
The “normal gaming state” is an example of a first gaming state, and is a gaming state in which a game is played upon shifting to the “advantageous gaming state”. Also, during the "normal game state", the game is divided into a "normal stage", a "field stage (hereinafter, field)" and a "normal mission stage (hereinafter, normal mission)" having different transition probabilities to the "advantageous game state". be able to.

The “advantageous game state” is an example of the specific game state or the second game state, and is a game state that is more advantageous to the player than the “normal game state”, and is referred to as a “rush stage (hereinafter also simply referred to as“ rush ”). ) "," Episode Stage (hereinafter referred to as Episode) "," Rush Mission Stage (hereinafter referred to as Rush Mission) "," Attack Stage (hereinafter referred to as Attack) "," Drive Stage (hereinafter referred to as "Drive") "and" Ending stage (hereinafter referred to as ending) ”.
The “rush mission”, “attack”, “drive”, and “ending” are game states with a high expectation of continuing the “advantageous game state”, and a privilege (AT This is a so-called “additional specialization state” in which the right to execute the advantageous gaming state (rush stock or special stock described later) is easily given.
“Bonus” is an example of a special game state, and can be classified into “normal bonus”, “super bonus” and “white bonus” as described above.

  Basic game state transitions are as follows: from the “normal stage”, which is the initial game state, to the field → normal mission → rush stage → episode / rush mission / attack / drive (episode) (arrow A → arrow B in FIG. 17) A transition state such as → arrow C → arrow F / arrow I / arrow H / arrow G (arrow N)) is followed.

<Normal game state>
In the "normal gaming state", a plurality of internal states (low-probability state, high-probability state, super-high-probability state) having different degrees of advantage in the "normal gaming state" are provided.
The initial value of the internal state is, for example, “when the game setting value of the slot machine 1 is changed (after power-on)”, or when “losing in a“ battle game ”performed during a“ normal mission ”described later. Is determined.
When "game setting value is changed", the higher the set game setting value, the easier it is to determine the order of low probability mode <high probability mode <super high probability mode (see FIG. 19).
In addition, when “losing in the battle game”, the super high probability state is easily determined when the set game setting value is an odd number (1, 3, 5) (see FIG. 20).

In the internal state, a state transition lottery is performed at a predetermined opportunity in the “normal game state”.
In this state transition lottery, a low-principle state is transitioned (promoted) from a low-probability state to a high-probability state (see FIG. 23) on condition that a low-principle minor combination is established (see FIG. 23). , The state transitions (falls) from the high probability state to the low probability state (see FIG. 25).
In addition, the winning probability of the AT winning differs depending on the internal state, and it is set so that the winning becomes easier in the order of low probability state <high probability state <ultra high probability state. In addition, in the case of the super high probability state, if the rare role is won, it is set so that the AT is won with a probability of 100%.
As described above, in the normal game state, the internal state is changed during the stay to prevent the normal game state from becoming monotonous, thereby increasing the interest of the game.

(Normal stage)
The “normal stage” is a game state in which the player stays at the time of power-on with an operation of a predetermined initialization switch or the like, and occupies most of the games in the slot machine 1.
The entry into the “normal stage” is a loss in a “battle game” performed in a “normal mission” to be described later (arrow E in FIG. 17) or a completion of the bonus (arrow U in FIG. 17). Or, when the “advantageous game state” ends (arrow W in FIG. 17), the game enters.
In addition, the “normal stage” ends when the AT is won (arrows A and D in FIG. 17).

The “normal stage” is a game state that is disadvantageous to the player who basically stays at RT0 and RT1 and is in the non-AT state, and the medals held by the player gradually decrease as the game continues.
Therefore, in the “normal stage”, an AT shift lottery process for shifting to the AT state is performed.

Specifically, when a predetermined winning combination (AT transition winning combination) is won, the AT transition lottery process is performed according to the game setting value and the current internal state.
For example, in the slot machine 1 in which the game setting value is "1", when "Low Cherry" is won in the low probability state, the AT is won with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 21), and "Low" in the high probability state. When the "Cherry" is won, the AT is elected with a probability of 13/255 (see FIG. 24), and when the "Weak Cherry" is elected in an extremely high probability state, the AT is elected with a probability of 255/255. (See FIG. 26).
Then, when an AT is won, a game state (stage) to be a transition destination AT state is determined.
Specifically, the transition destination is determined from the game states of “field”, “rush stage”, and “episode” to be described later.
For example, when the game setting value is “1”, “field” is selected with a probability of 229/255, “rush stage” is selected with a probability of 20/255, and “episode” is selected with a probability of 6/255. (See FIG. 22).
In the following description, the right acquired by winning the AT in the AT transfer lottery process is referred to as “initial winning stock”.

(field)
The “field” is an example of a special game state, which is a game state in which at least 10 games are continued, stays at RT0 to RT3, and is an AT state.
The entry into the “field” is triggered by the fact that the AT is won in the “normal stage” and the “field” is determined as the transfer destination (arrow A in FIG. 17).
The end of the “field” is triggered by the transition to the “normal mission” (arrow B in FIG. 17) or the winning of the bonus role (arrow S in FIG. 17).

In the “field”, when the transition to the “advantageous game state” is determined via the “normal mission” (hereinafter, also referred to as “first hit”), the initial value of the number of AT games in the “rush stage” after the transition (hereinafter, referred to as “initial hit”) , The number of AT initial games) is increased, and a game for acquiring an increased number (hereinafter, referred to as an additional initial game number) is executed.
That is, the number of additional games acquired during the "field" is added to the number of AT initial games in the "rush stage" (specific value increasing means), so that the number of games that can stay in the advantageous gaming state can be increased. ing.

In addition, the number of additional games to be added may increase depending on the additional multiplier determined when entering the “field”.
Therefore, the number of games calculated by “the number of additional games to be added” × “the additional multiplier” is added to the number of AT initial games of the “rush stage”.
Therefore, obtaining a large number of additional initial games and determining a large additional multiplier during the “field” is advantageous for the player when the game shifts to the “rush stage”.

The number of additional games to be added is determined by lottery according to the winning combination that has been won in the current game (increase number determining means).
For example, if "weak cherry" is won in the first game after entering "field", "50G" is won with a probability of 64/255, "100G" is won with a probability of 8/255, and 4 “200G” is won (determined) with a probability of / 255, and “300G” is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 30).
In addition, a plurality of game numbers are provided for the determined number of additional games to be determined. Basically, the number of games having a higher numerical value is determined for a winning combination having a lower winning probability.

The additional multiplier is determined by lottery when entering the “field” (increase multiplier determining means). For example, the multiplier “1” is won with a probability of 229/255, and the multiplier “2” is won with a probability of 20/255. Then, with the probability of 4/255, the magnification “3” is won, and with the probability of 2/255, the magnification “4” is won (see FIG. 28).
Further, the addition magnification is not changed in a predetermined period.
In other words, the additional multiplier determined at the time of entering the “field” does not change during the period from the “field” to the transition to another game state, and for all “additional initial games” determined during this period, The same additional magnification is applied.

The “additional fixed initial game number” (determined increase number) calculated by accumulating the “additional initial game number” and the “additional multiplier” thus determined is determined by the display 8 or the like at the determined timing. The player is notified through the notification means (determination increase number notification means).
For example, when the additional multiplier is determined to be "4" and the additional initial game number is determined to be "10G", "40G" is calculated as the additional final game number to be determined (determined increase number calculating means), and this "40G" is displayed on the display. The notification is made to the player through notification means such as 8.

The number of additional games confirmed to be added is also notified on the 7-segment display 14.
During the “field”, the number of AT initial games in the “rush stage” after the transition is displayed on the 7-segment display 14, and the displayed number of AT initial games is added to the displayed number of AT initial games. The value obtained by adding the initial game number is updated and displayed on the 7-segment display 14.

Next, with reference to FIG. 77, an effect mode in the “field” will be described.
When the transition to the "field" is determined in the "normal stage", for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, as shown in FIG. It is displayed on the display 8.
Subsequently, the effect display screen on which the image of the enemy character is displayed is displayed on the display 8 (see FIG. 77 (b)), and the effect display is started.
At this time, a predetermined number of AT initial games (for example, 100) is displayed on the 7-segment display 14 as shown in FIG. 77 (d).
When the production display starts, if the number of additional initial games is acquired as a result of the lottery, the images and sounds that attack the enemy character are output, and the images and audio that further defeat the enemy characters Is output.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 77 (c), the number of additional games confirmed to be added (+ 40G) is displayed on the display 8.

Here, the number of additional games confirmed to be displayed is a numerical value obtained by integrating the number of additional games and the additional multiplier as described above. For example, the number of additional initial games is “10G” and the additional multiplier is “4”. If determined, “40G” is displayed.
At this time, as shown in FIG. 77 (e), the 7-segment display 14 has a value obtained by adding the additional fixed initial game number (40G) to the already displayed AT initial game number (100G). (140) is updated and displayed.
Thereafter, during the stay in the "field", the effect display of FIG. 77 (b) and FIG. 77 (c) is repeatedly performed in accordance with the result of the lottery for obtaining the number of additional initial games performed in each game, and the additional final game is determined. You can increase the number.

As described above, the number of additional fixed initial games acquired during the “field” is reported, but the additional multiplier is not reported.
This is because the addition rate is not notified, and the addition rate can be estimated by the player from the notified additional fixed initial game number.
For example, if "600" is displayed as the number of initial games confirmed to win after being selected as "strong cherry", the number of additional initial games determined at the time of winning "strong cherry" is a maximum of "300" (see FIG. 30 and FIG. 31), “1” is denied as the additional magnification.
When “600” is divided by “4”, the result is “150”, but since there is no value of “150” as the number of additional games to be added (see FIGS. 30 and 31), the additional magnification is “4”. Is also denied.
On the other hand, when “600” is divided by “2” (first magnification), “300” (second increase number) is obtained. When “600” is divided by “3” (second magnification), “300” is obtained. 200 (first increase number), and the values of “300” (second increase number) and “200” (first increase number) are calculated as the additional initial game numbers, and this “300” (second increase number) is calculated. Number) and “200” (first increase number) are present as the number of additional games to be determined when “Strong Cherry” is won (see FIGS. 30 and 31). It can be inferred that it is (first magnification) or "3" (second magnification).
In addition, if “40” or “1200” is displayed as the additional game number determined as “additional game”, “4” is determined as the additional multiplier, so if the player knows the specifications of the gaming machine, the additional multiplier is set. Also has the ability to specify the game.
As described above, although it is difficult for the player to clearly specify the additional multiplier, it is possible to estimate the current additional multiplier from the notified number of additional fixed initial games, thereby improving the interest of the game. It becomes possible.

In the above description, during the “field”, the 7-segment display 14 first displays the number of AT initial games in the “rush stage” after the transition (see FIG. 77 (d)), and the display is displayed. Although the display is updated by adding the number of additional initial games acquired during the “field” to the number of AT initial games (see FIG. 77 (e)), the present invention is not limited to this. In the middle, the 7-segment display 14 updates the display by accumulating the number of additional initial games acquired during the "field" and adding the number of AT initial games of the "rush stage" at the end of the "field" May be.
In this case, when the number of AT initial games of the “rush stage” is added at the end of the “field”, the notification may be made, for example, at a timing at which the effect button is operated.

In the "field", a lottery for determining an "enemy level" (reference value) of a "battle game" performed in a "normal mission" described later is performed (reference value determination means).
The enemy level indicates the level (strength) of the enemy character selected in the “battle game”, and is set in five levels, for example. The higher the determined value of the enemy level, the higher the degree of expectation for the transition to the “advantageous game state”.
Specifically, the higher the numerical value of the enemy level is, the harder it is to win, for example, the enemy level “1” is won with a probability of 247/255, and the enemy level “2” is won with a probability of 4/255. Then, the enemy level "3" is won with a probability of 2/255, the enemy level "4" is won with a probability of 1/255, and the enemy level "5" is won with a probability of 1/255. (See FIG. 27).

Further, in the "field", a level-up lottery is performed to increase the numerical value of the enemy level determined when the "field" enters.
For example, if the current enemy level is "1", the enemy level "1" is maintained with a probability of 237/255, the enemy level "2" is won with a probability of 17/255, and the enemy level is elected with a probability of 1/255. Level "3" is won (see FIG. 29).

(Normal mission)
The “normal mission” is an example of a predetermined game state, and is a game state configured as a series of games with a “field”, and basically stays at RT2 and RT3 and is in an AT state. This is a so-called ART state.
The entry into the “normal mission” is triggered by the end of the “field” (arrow B in FIG. 17).
The “normal mission” ends when the “battle game” performed during the “normal mission” ends (arrows C and E in FIG. 17) or when a bonus role is won (in FIG. 17). The process ends with the arrow S).

In the “normal mission”, a “battle game” (specific effect) in which transition to the “advantageous game state” is performed for a predetermined number of games (specific effect executing means). By "victory (achieving a mission)" in this "battle game", a predetermined number of rights (rush stock) for executing the "advantageous gaming state" are given (see FIG. 35). This rush stock is a right that can be stored, not one, and can be stored (hereinafter also referred to as possession) in a storage means such as a RAM provided in the main control unit 10.
Also, by winning in the “battle game”, the number of additional fixed initial games acquired during the “field” can be won, and the number of AT initial games in the “rush stage” after the shift can be obtained.

Whether or not a player "wins" in a "battle game" is determined by a slot machine game operation performed by the player.
Furthermore, the "battle game" does not end mechanically when the predetermined number of games is exhausted, and does not end until the player finally wins or loses the "battle game". .
For this reason, the player can obtain the execution right of the "advantageous game state", not by a simple lottery result, but by the operation / judgment of the slot machine game to be performed by himself / herself, and can obtain the feeling that the success or failure has been determined. Until the effect is finally finished, the "Battle Game" effect can be enjoyed without losing the sense of expectation, excitement or interest.

Next, with reference to FIG. 78, a description will be given of an effect mode of the “battle game” performed during the “normal mission”.
After the "field" ends, for example, when the start lever 3 is operated, as shown in FIG. 78 (a), the entry to the "normal mission" (battle game) is notified, and the enemy character to battle is displayed. Is displayed on the display 8.
Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 78 (b), the basic screen of the effect display is displayed on the display unit 8, and the effect display is started.
On this screen, an image in which the enemy character and the ally character face each other, and an indicator indicating the “HP” of the enemy character are displayed near the enemy character.
In addition, an indicator indicating the enemy level of the enemy character and a character description indicating a basic outline of the “battle game” are displayed (“attack in small role! Defeat in 4 consecutive replays”). Note that the explanation display is not limited to this, and it is of course possible to provide other explanations such as “Win five consecutive attacks!” In addition to or instead of the character explanation shown in FIG. 78 (b). It is.
The speaker 9 outputs a sound effect, a melody sound, and the like indicating that the battle mission has started.

When the production display is started, an image / voice that makes an attack based on a subtraction value (hereinafter referred to as an enemy damage number) determined according to a winning combination of the game from an ally character to an enemy character is output, Images and sounds that cause enemy characters to be damaged are output.
Further, the number of damages received by the enemy character is displayed (for example, “1 DAMEGE”), and a decrease in the scale of the indicator indicates that the “HP” of the enemy character has decreased by the damage number.

When the small role (rare role) is won, the number of enemy damages is determined according to the type of the winning role that has been won. For example, if the winning role is “weak cherry” or “watermelon” In this case, the number of enemy damages “2, 3, 5, 10” is determined. In the case of “strong cherry”, the number of enemy damages “5, 10” is determined. In the case of a strong bell, the number of enemy damages is “10”. Is determined (see FIG. 34).
When the small role (other than the rare role) is won, the number of enemy damages is determined according to the enemy level determined in the “field”. For example, when the enemy level is “1” In this case, the enemy damage number “1” is determined with a probability of 220/255, the enemy damage number “2” is determined with a probability of 20/255, and the enemy damage number “3” is determined with a probability of 12/255. The number of enemy damages "1" is determined at a probability of 2/255, and the number of enemy damages "10" is determined at a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 33).
In addition, when the small role is not won (when the replay role or “losing” is won), the number of enemy damages is not determined.
As described above, since the number of enemy damages determined according to the winning combination is different, the player is excited about whether or not the small winning is won, and further, expects the small winning with the greater damage to be won. And then proceed with the game.

In the "battle game", while repeating a battle (battle) with the enemy character, a predetermined condition is satisfied, so that the victory or defeat of the enemy character is achieved.
More specifically, the enemy character is defeated on condition that the “HP” of the enemy character becomes zero or that the player wins a small role or special replay 1 for five consecutive games.
When the enemy character has won, an image / sound that the ally character defeats the enemy character, or an image / sound indicating that the ally character has won, as shown in FIG. 78 (c), is output.
As a result, the “rush stage” is started after the effect display of the “battle game” ends.
In this manner, by winning the small role or special replay 1 continuously (five times), it is possible to win the enemy character, so that the player is greatly excited and excited about the continuous winning of the small role. This means that the fun of the “battle game” is increased.

On the other hand, if the player wins a replay (other than the special replay 1) for four consecutive games, the enemy character is defeated.
When the enemy character is defeated, an image / sound that the ally character is defeated by the enemy character or an image / sound indicating that the ally character is defeated is output as shown in FIG. 78 (d).
Thus, the “normal stage” is started after the effect display of the “battle game” ends.
When the player loses in the “battle game”, the “additional fixed initial game number” acquired in the “field” is initialized (zero).
Further, the "AT initial game number" of the "rush stage" is also initialized, and is determined again by lottery (see FIG. 18).

In addition, the initial value of the “HP” of the enemy character in the “battle game” is determined when the “normal mission” enters, and is determined according to the enemy level determined in the “field”.
For example, when the enemy level is “1”, the HP is “10”, when the enemy level is “2”, the HP is “8”, when the enemy level is “3”, the HP is “7”, and the enemy level is “4”. In this case, the smaller the value of the enemy level is, the higher the value of “HP” is assigned, such as HP “5”, and the enemy level is “5”, such as HP “3” (see FIG. 32). ).

In the above description, the “battle game” is realized by providing “HP” only to the enemy character. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, “HP” may be set to the ally character.
In this case, “HP” as an initial value of the ally character is determined, and an indicator indicating “HP” of the ally character is displayed near the ally character. Then, the “HP” of the ally character may be decremented by “1” when “losing” or replay (other than special replay 1) is won in the game during the “battle game”.
As a result, a game in which the “HP” of the enemy character or the ally character becomes zero first becomes “defeated”.

Further, the “HP” of the ally character may be recovered during the “battle game”.
For example, in a game during a “battle game”, if a predetermined small role is won, the “HP” of the ally character may be returned to the initial value.
In this case, for example, by setting the initial value of the “HP” of the ally character to “4”, if the player wins four consecutive games during the “battle game” (other than the special replay 1), the ally character "HP" becomes zero. On the other hand, if the player wins the small role even once, "HP" is returned to the initial value, and the HP of the ally character is restored to "4".
As a result, the player is not defeated in the “battle game” unless the player wins “out” or a replay (other than the special replay 1) four consecutive times during the “battle game”. Until you do, you will be able to enjoy the "battle game".

In addition to the above, it is also possible to return the “HP” of the enemy character to the initial value when, for example, a specific small role is won.
Further, for example, the number of damages is added (incremented) as “HP” associated with the enemy character or the ally character, and when the number of damages reaches a predetermined value, the “battle game” is ended. You can also.

<Advantageous game state>
The “advantageous game state” can be switched between the “normal game state” and the “bonus game state” based on a predetermined opportunity (arrows C, D, S, and T in FIG. 17). , Arrow W) basically stays at RT3 and is in the AT state, which is the so-called ART state.
However, if the pushing order of the replay combination specified in the pushing order is missed during the “advantageous game state” (transition to RT1), or after the bonus is over when the bonus is won (transition to RT0), stay in other than RT3. I do.

In the "advantageous game state", a plurality of internal modes (low-probability mode, high-probability mode, ultra-high-probability mode A, and ultra-high-probability mode B) having different degrees of advantage in the "advantage gaming state" are provided. .
This internal mode is determined at the time of entering the “advantageous game state”. For example, the “normal mode” is won with a probability of 225/255, the “high probability mode” is won with a probability of 13/255, and “Super high probability mode A” is won with a probability of 255, and “super high probability mode B” is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 42).
In the internal mode, a shift lottery is performed at a predetermined opportunity during the “advantageous game state”. For example, the low probability mode is changed to the high probability mode on condition that a small winning combination (rare combination) with a low winning frequency is established. The mode is shifted (see FIG. 38), and the mode is shifted from the high-probability mode to the low-probability mode on condition that a small winning combination such as a replay or a bell is frequently won (see FIG. 41).
Further, during staying in the “advantageous game state”, it is preferable that the advantageous state lamp 13 controlled by the main control unit 10 is turned on and blinks.

(Rush stage)
The “rush stage” is a game state in which the player first stays after entering the “advantageous game state”.
In the "rush stage", the game continues as long as the number of AT games remains. If the number of AT games is entered via the "field" and the "normal mission", the number of AT games is determined before entering the "advantageous game state". It is a value obtained by adding the number of AT initial games of the "rush stage" and the number of additional fixed initial games acquired during the "field" (specific value increasing means).
Further, even when the number of AT games becomes “zero”, if rush stock remains, the game is continued (connected to a villa). In this case, the stored rush stock number is decremented by one, and “30G” is newly added to the AT game number, and the game of the “rush stage” is started.
On the other hand, if these conditions are not satisfied, the routine shifts to the “normal gaming state” (arrow W in FIG. 17).

In the “rush stage”, a lottery for shifting to another game state (stage) of the “advantageous game state” is performed.
Specifically, when a predetermined winning combination is won, a lottery is performed according to the current internal mode.
For example, when winning in the "weak cherry", when staying in the low probability mode, the player wins with a probability of 6/255, and when staying in the high probability mode, the player wins with a probability of 26/255. Is set to win with a probability of 255/255 when staying in the super high probability mode B (see FIG. 36).
That is, it is set so that it is easy to win in the order of the low probability mode <the high probability mode <the very high probability mode A <the very high probability mode B. In the case of the very high probability mode, if the rare role is won, 100 is selected. The transition is set to be determined with a probability of%.

Furthermore, when the transfer lottery is won, a lottery for determining the game state (stage) of the transfer destination is performed.
For example, when staying in the low probability mode, “episode” is selected with a probability of 10/255, “rush mission” is selected with a probability of 228/255, and “attack” is selected with a probability of 16/255. “Drive” is selected with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 37). Further, when staying in the super high probability modes A and B, the mode shifts to only “rush mission” and “attack”.
The right granted by winning in this transfer lottery is referred to as “special stock”. This special stock is a right that can be stored in plurals instead of one, and can be stored (hereinafter also referred to as possession) in a storage means such as a RAM provided in the main control unit 10.

(episode)
“Episode” is a transition from the “rush stage” (arrow F in FIG. 17), and is a gaming state that continues for 30 games. An arrow M) or a transition to each additional specialization state is made ((arrows J, K, and L in FIG. 17)).
During the "episode", the game progresses while a series of stories (episodes of each character) is executed by image effects (hereinafter, episode effects) on the display device 8.
In the episode production, for example, `` rush episode '', `` mission episode '', `` attack episode '', `` drive episode '' is provided, and the type of episode production to be executed is determined by lottery before entering `` episode '' Have been.
For example, a “rush episode” is selected with a probability of 16/255, a “mission episode” is selected with a probability of 190/255, an “attack episode” is selected with a probability of 39/255, and a probability of 10/255 is selected. “Drive episode” is selected (see FIG. 39).

Then, the determined episode effect is executed over 30 games, and after the 30 games are over, the state shifts to each additional specialization state corresponding to the episode effect.
Specifically, in the case of a "rush episode", shift to "rush stage", in the case of "mission episode", shift to "rush mission", in the case of "attack episode", shift to "attack", In the case of "episode", it shifts to "drive".

In the “episode”, the number of games may be increased (increased) after 30 games are completed.
Specifically, before entering the “episode”, the “number of additional games” is determined according to the episode effect.
For example, if the determined episode effect is “drive episode”, “0G” is won with a probability of 204/255, “50G” is won with a probability of 47/255, and “50G” is won with a probability of 47/255. 100G "is won (see FIG. 40). Further, when the determined episode effect is “mission episode” or “attack episode”, the addition of 50 G or more is determined.
Note that the determined number of additional games is displayed in the final game (30th game) of the “episode”.

(Rush Mission)
The “rush mission” shifts from the “rush stage” or the “episode” (arrows I and L in FIG. 17) and, like the “normal mission” described above, during the predetermined number of games, the “battle game” ( (Specific effect) (specific effect executing means).
For this reason, the “normal mission” and the effect form are almost the same, but differ in the following points.
In the "rush mission", the "enemy level" of the "battle game" is determined according to the current internal mode (reference value determining means).
For example, in the low probability mode, the player wins the enemy level “1” with a probability of 127/255, wins the enemy level “2” with a probability of 77/255, and wins the enemy level “3” with a probability of 38/255. , The enemy level “4” with a probability of 9/255, and the enemy level “5” with a probability of 4/255 (see FIG. 45).
In addition, the setting is such that a high enemy level is determined in the order of low probability mode <high probability mode <super high probability mode A <super high probability mode B.
Further, in the ultra-high probability mode B, only the enemy levels of “3” to “5” are set, and the degree of expectation of winning in the “battle game” is set to be the highest.

In the "rush mission", when the player wins in the "battle game", a rush stock capable of executing the "rush stage" is provided as in the "normal mission".
In addition, a lottery for executing the “battle game” again (hereinafter, referred to as a consecutive battle) is also performed.
Specifically, the consecutive lottery is performed based on the current internal mode and the enemy level at the time of victory in the “battle game”.
For example, when the enemy level at the time of victory in the “battle game” is “1”, the player is elected with a probability of 51/255 in the low probability mode, and elected with a probability of 85/255 in the high probability mode, In the case of the super high probability mode A, the winning is performed with a probability of 255/255, and in the case of the super high probability mode B, the winning is performed with a probability of 255/255 (see FIG. 46).
That is, the low probability mode <high probability mode <super high probability mode A <super high probability mode B is set so that the consecutive battles are easily determined in this order. In the case of the super high probability modes A and B, a 100% probability is set. It is supposed to fight consecutively.
Further, when the enemy level at the time of victory in the "battle game" is "5", a continuous battle is performed with a probability of 100% regardless of the current internal mode.

Next, with reference to FIG. 79, a description will be given of an effect mode of the “battle game” performed during the “rush mission”.
After the shift to the “rush mission”, for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, as shown in FIG. 79A, a screen for notifying the entry to the “rush mission” (battle game) is displayed on the display 8. Is displayed.
Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 79 (b), the basic screen of the effect display is displayed on the display 8, and the effect display is started.
On this screen, the display is almost the same as that during the above-mentioned "normal mission", and the difference is that information on the rush, for example, "the number of remaining AT games", "the number of acquired ATs", and "the number of battles" are displayed at the top of the screen. Is displayed.
The "AT remaining game number" is not subtracted during the "rush mission". In addition, not only during the “rush mission” but also in a game state other than the “rush stage”, the “AT remaining game number” is not reduced.

When the production display is started, images and sounds that make the ally character turn the enemy character into an attack corresponding to the number of enemy damages determined according to the winning combination of this game are output, as during the “normal mission” At the same time, an image and a sound that damage the enemy character are output.
Then, while repeating a battle (battle) with the enemy character, the victory or defeat of the enemy character is achieved when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
The conditions for victory and the conditions for losing are the same as those in the “normal mission”. If the ally is lost, the image or sound of the ally character being defeated by the enemy character, or the fact that the ally character is defeated as shown in FIG. The image or sound to be displayed is output.
As a result, the “rush stage” is started after the effect display of the “battle game” ends.

On the other hand, in the case of victory, an image / sound that the ally character defeats the enemy character, or an image / sound indicating that the ally character has won, as shown in FIG. 79 (c), is output.
Furthermore, in the “battle game” during the “rush mission”, if the battle is won, the “battle game” may be able to be executed again (continuous battle). As shown in FIG. 79 (d), the enemy character to compete with is selected again, and the battle effect display with this enemy character is started.
On the other hand, if the series is not determined, a “rush stage” is started.
As described above, the "battle game" performed during the "rush mission" is different from the "battle game" performed during the "normal mission" in that the game characteristics are different, and the battle is won. Even if rush stock is acquired, the "battle game" can be executed again, so that a large amount of rush stock can be acquired.

(attack)
“Attack” is a game state in which the game shifts from “rush stage” or “episode” (arrows H and K in FIG. 17) and six games are executed as one set.
In “Attack”, a continuous lottery is performed in the sixth game, which is the final game of one set.
More specifically, the continuation rate is determined when “attack” enters, for example, the continuation rate “0.39%” is determined with a probability of 247/255, and the continuation rate is “80%” with a probability of 8/255. Is set to be determined (see FIG. 47).
Then, based on the determined continuation rate, a continuous lottery of “Attack” is performed in the final game of one set.
If the continuous lottery is won, the “attack” is continued again with six games as one set. If the continuous lottery is not won, the process proceeds to the “rush stage” (arrow O in FIG. 17).

In the "attack", a lottery for determining the "number of additional games" for increasing the number of AT games in the "rush stage" is performed (additional game number determining means).
That is, since the “additional game number” obtained in “attack” is added to the “rush stage” AT game number, it is advantageous for the player to acquire a large number of “additional game number” during “attack”. Becomes
Specifically, the “number of additional games” is determined according to the winning combination that has been won in the internal lottery process.
For example, when a "weak cherry" is won, "20G" is won with a probability of 207/255, "30G" is won with a probability of 24/255, and "50G" is won with a probability of 12/255. Then, “100G” is won with a probability of 6/255, “200G” is won with a probability of 4/255, and “300G” is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 48). .
The “additional game number” is provided with a plurality of game numbers. Basically, a winning combination having a lower winning probability is determined to have a relatively large number of games.
Further, the number of additional games of “5G” or more is always won even if the “losing”, the replaying role, and the belling role are won, without being limited to the rare role winning. That is, during the “attack”, “5G” or more “additional games” can be obtained for each game.
Further, since the “attack” may continue (loop), the game state is such that a large number of “additional games” can be acquired.

The “additional game number” acquired during the “attack” is notified to the player through the notifying means such as the display 8 at the acquired timing.
In this case, a lottery is performed to determine whether or not to display the acquired “number of additional games” separately.
Specifically, the setting is such that “divided” or “non-divided” is determined with a probability of about １ ／ (see FIG. 49), and based on this determination, the “number of additional games” is displayed on the display. Informing at 8.
For example, when the "additional game number" of "20G" is acquired during the "attack", when "split" is won, both "10G" and "10G" obtained by dividing "20G" are simultaneously displayed.
As a result, it is possible to give the player an impression as if he / she has won the lottery of the “number of additional games” twice.
Note that the probability that “split” or “non-split” is determined is not limited to this, and can be set arbitrarily. For example, the probability can be made different according to the game setting value or the winning combination.

(drive)
“Drive” is a game state in which the game shifts from “rush stage” or “episode” (arrows G and J in FIG. 17) and five games are executed as one set.
"In the drive, after the three sets are completed (the fifteenth game), the continuous lottery is performed in the start game of the fourth set.
Specifically, the setting is made so that “continuation” is determined with a probability of １ ／ (see FIG. 50).
When the continuous lottery is won, the “drive” continues again with five games as one set.
In the "drive", a lottery for determining the "number of additional games" for increasing the number of AT games in the "rush stage" is performed (the number of additional games during driving).
Specifically, the “number of additional games” is determined according to the winning combination that has been won in the internal lottery process.
For example, when a "weak cherry" is won, "10G" is won with a probability of 128/255, "20G" is won with a probability of 111/255, and "30G" is won with a probability of 8/255. Then, “50G” is won with a probability of 4/255, “100G” is won with a probability of 2/255, and “200G” and “300G” are won with a probability of 1/255 ( See FIG. 51).
The “additional game number” is provided with a plurality of game numbers. Basically, a winning combination having a lower winning probability is determined to have a relatively large number of games.

Furthermore, in the case of "Drive", if the lottery of "Additional games" is won, even if it is determined as "Discontinuation" in the continuous lottery of "Drive", it will be changed to "Continue" ing.
For example, even if “non-continuation” is determined in the continuous lottery executed in the start game of the fourth set, the number of additional games drawn from the first game to the fifth game of the fourth set Is changed to "Continue" if the lottery can be won.
Therefore, the player can enjoy the game without losing his sense of expectation, excitement and interest until the last game.
On the other hand, if it is determined as “non-continuation” in the continuation lottery of “drive” and the lottery of the number of games added to “drive” is not won, the game shifts to the “rush stage” after finishing the fifth game ( Arrow R in FIG. 17).

(ending)
“Ending” is a game state in which “drive” continues when 20 or more sets have been continued and “drive” has not been continued (arrow N in FIG. 17) and continues for 100 games.
In the “ending”, a lottery for shifting to another game state (stage) of the “advantageous game state” is being performed. Specifically, a lottery process is performed according to the internal mode (low-probability mode) triggered by winning of a predetermined winning combination (see FIG. 36).
Then, when the transfer lottery is won, the game state (stage) of the transfer destination is determined in the final game (100th game) of the “ending” (see FIG. 37).
After the end of 100 games, the game shifts to the “rush stage” (arrow Q in FIG. 17), and is controlled to shift to each game state (stage) if the shift lottery is won during the “ending”. You.

(Bonus)
The “bonus” is a gaming state advantageous to a player who wins a small role such as a bell role with a high probability, and is entered by stopping the combination of bonus symbols corresponding to the bonus role (arrow S in FIG. 17). The process ends when a predetermined number of payouts is exceeded (arrows T and U in FIG. 17).
The “bonus” in the present embodiment is a variable bonus whose winning probability varies according to a game setting value, and a normal bonus, a super bonus, and a white bonus are provided as types of the bonus.
The present invention is not limited to this, and a “fixed bonus” in which the winning probability does not change according to the game setting value may be provided.

(Normal bonus)
The "normal bonus" is won with a probability of about 1/1000, and ends when more than 162 medals are paid out.
During the bonus, the bell role and the "losing" are won. If the "losing" is won, the "number of additional games" to increase the number of AT games of "field" or "rush stage" to which the bonus is shifted after the bonus ends. Is determined.
For example, "5G" wins with a probability of 200/255, "10G" wins with a probability of 40/255, "20G" wins with a probability of 10/255, and "30G" with a probability of 2/255. Is won, “50G” is won with a probability of 2/255, and “100G” is won with a probability of 1/255 (see FIG. 54).

After the end of the bonus, the transition destination is different depending on the game state (stage) that was staying at the time of winning the bonus.
For example, if you were staying in the “normal stage”, you will move to “field” after the bonus ends, and if you stayed in the “field” or “normal mission”, you will move to the “rush stage” after the bonus ends. If the game shifts and stays in the “advantageous game state” including the “rush stage”, the game shifts to the staying game state (stage) after the end of the bonus.

(Super Bonus)
The “super bonus” is won with a probability of about 1/3000, ends when more than 306 medals are paid out, and shifts to a “rush stage” after the bonus ends.
During the bonus, the game stops at a symbol combination (normal stop display mode) in which payout of the game medium is not performed (the fourth winning combination), the "S red 7 replay" (the first winning combination), the "W red". 7 replays ”(second winning role),“ Gase red 7 replays ”, bell role etc. are won.

If the player wins “S Red 7 Replay” or “W Red 7 Replay” during the bonus, a combination of symbols corresponding to each winning combination (for example, S Red 7 Replay: Watermelon / Red 7 / Red Blank, W Red) When 7 replays: red blank, red 7, and red blank) can be aligned on the winning line, the "red 7" symbol or the "red blank" symbol is apparently aligned with a predetermined line (hereinafter referred to as red 7 aligned). It becomes a display mode.
For example, when the "S Red 7 Replay" is won, the "Red 7" symbol or the "Red Blank" symbol is operated on one line by operating the stop button 5 aiming at the "Red 7" symbol. A stop display (hereinafter, “S red 7 aligned”) is performed.
If the player wins the "W Red 7 Replay", the stop button 5 is operated to aim at the "Red 7" symbol on each reel, so that the "Red 7" symbol is displayed on the two lines, the middle line and the downward line. Alternatively, the "red blank" symbol is stopped and displayed (hereinafter, "W red 7 is aligned").

If the player wins “S Red 7 Replay” or “W Red 7 Replay”, rush stock may be given as a privilege.
Specifically, the number of rush stocks to be granted is determined for each winning combination. For example, in the case of “S Red 7 Replay”, the number of rush stocks “1” is won with a probability of 252/255, and 3 The rush stock number "2" is to be won with a probability of / 255, while in the case of "W Red 7 Replay", the rush stock number "7" with a probability of 255/255 (100%) The winner is selected (see FIG. 55).
That is, the player can recognize that the expectation of acquiring a large number of rush stocks is high if "W Red 7 Alignment" is stopped and displayed.

Next, with reference to FIG. 80, a description will be given of an effect mode and a symbol stop display mode when "S Red 7 Replay" and "W Red 7 Replay" are won.
When the "S Red 7 Replay" or the "W Red 7 Replay" is won, for example, at the timing when the start lever 3 is operated, a push such as "Aim for Red 7!" As shown in FIG. An effect display prompting operation is displayed.

Then, when the stop button 5 is operated to aim at the "red 7" symbol on the middle reel 41b, the "red 7" symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle stage of the middle reel 41b (fixed stop display mode).
At this time, when the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are in the state of being displayed while being fluctuated and "S Red 7 Replay" can be stopped by winning of "S Red 7 Replay", the state shown in FIG. As described above, there is a case where “Ichisho” (specific effect) is output as a special sound (specific effect executing means).
Subsequently, by operating the stop button 5 on the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c aiming at the "Red 7" symbol, "S Red 7 aligned" is stopped and displayed as shown in FIG. 80 (c).
On the other hand, when "W Red 7 Alignment" can be stopped by winning of "W Red 7 Replay", no special sound is output as shown in FIG. 80 (d).
Subsequently, by operating the stop button 5 on the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c for the "Red 7" symbol, "W Red 7 aligned" is stopped and displayed as shown in FIG. 80 (e).

  During the bonus, except when the “S Red 7 Replay”, the “W Red 7 Replay” and the “Gase Red 7 Replay” are won, while the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are displayed in a variable manner, the middle reel 41b is displayed. Since the reel control is performed so that the “Red 7” symbol is not stopped and displayed in the middle stage, the “Red 7” symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle stage of the middle reel 41b while the left reel 41a and the right reel 41c are being displayed in a variable manner. Thus, it is possible to give a sense of expectation that “S Red 7 Alignment” and “W Red 7 Alignment” may be stopped and displayed.

Also, as described above, although "W Red 7 Alignment" is harder to win than "S Red 7 Alignment", "W Red 7 Alignment" is more difficult to win than "S Red 7 Alignment". Since the number of rush stocks is also easily determined, the player plays the game while expecting that “W red 7 alignment” is stopped and displayed rather than “S red 7 alignment”. .
For this reason, when the player stops at the middle reel 41b when aiming for "Seven Red Matches", the number of stops for "S Red Seven Matches" that are likely to be won increases, so that the special voice (" )) Is easily output, but in rare cases, by giving the player a sense of incongruity that special voices are not output, a stop display of "W red 7 is complete" is displayed, that is, a large amount of rush stock is obtained. You can suggest that.
In the present embodiment, a case has been described in which “Isseki” is output from the speaker 9 as the special sound. However, the output is not limited to “Isseki” as long as it can be recognized by the player.
Although the special sound is output, the present invention is not limited to this. Light emission by the lamp 11, notification by the effect image on the display 8, and reel effect (freeze effect, etc.) may be used.

In addition, during the bonus, there is a case where the player wins the “Gase Red 7 Replay” provided as a “Gase Red” role of “S Red 7 Replay” and “W Red 7 Replay”.
When "Gase Red 7 Replay" is won, "Bell Red 7 / Bell Red Blank" can be stopped on the winning line. In other words, only the left reel 41a stops and displays a symbol different from "S Red 7 Replay" or "W Red 7 Replay", that is, the so-called gash roll is stopped and displayed.
From this, when "Gase Red 7 Replay" is won, on the display 8, "Aim for Red 7!" Is displayed in the same manner as when "S Red 7 Replay" and "W Red 7 Replay" are won. Is performed, when the player first operates the stop button 5 aiming at the "red 7" symbol on the middle reel 41b, the "red 7" symbol can be stopped and displayed at the middle stage, and Since the special voice ("Ichi") is not output, it is possible to give the player the impression that "W Red 7 Replay" has been won.

In the case of winning the “Gase Red 7 Replay”, the effect display such as “Reverse push!” May be displayed, and the right stop button 5c and the middle stop button 5b when operated by “reverse push” Until the operation of "Red Blank" and "Red 7" stop on the right reel 41c and the middle reel 41b, if the stop operation is performed according to the notification, "S Red 7 Replay" or It is possible to give the player an impression as if he / she has won "W Red 7 Replay".
As described above, by executing the gassed effect using “Gase Red 7 Replay”, the interest during the bonus can be enhanced.

In addition, when the "losing" is won, a lottery for determining the "number of additional games" for increasing the number of AT games in the "rush stage" to which the game shifts after the bonus ends is performed.
For example, "5G" wins with a probability of 128/255, "10G" wins with a probability of 83/255, "20G" wins with a probability of 23/255, and "30G" with a probability of 6/255. Is won, “50G” is won with a probability of 4/255, and “100G” is won with a probability of 2/255 (see FIG. 56).

(White bonus)
The “white bonus” is won with a probability of about 1/2000, and ends when more than 216 medals are paid out.
During the bonus, the bell role, “S Red 7 Replay”, “W Red 7 Replay”, “Gase Red 7 Replay”, etc. are won.
When the player wins the "S Red 7 Replay" or the "W Red 7 Replay" during the bonus, the stop mode in which the "Red 7" symbol or the "Red Blank" symbol is aligned in a row by notifying "Reverse push" May be stopped and displayed. In this case, as in the case of the “super bonus”, rush stock is given according to the stop mode.

If the special stock has been acquired (S23-14: Yes), "special stock type determination processing in ultra-high probability B mode" is executed (S23-15).
Specifically, with reference to the “special stock type determination table” shown in FIG. 37, a lottery for determining the game state (stage) of the transition destination from “rush mission” or “attack” is performed.

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the game is the last game (30G) in the “ultra high probability mode” (S23-16).
If it is determined that the game is the final game (S23-16: Yes), a "high-probability mode transition process" for transitioning from the current super-high probability mode A or the super-high probability mode B to the high-probability mode is executed (S23). -17). The mode is not limited to this, and the mode may be shifted to the low probability mode, or the mode may be shifted to the super high probability mode again.

<Rush mission processing>
FIG. 70 is a flowchart illustrating the “rush mission process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The “rush mission process” is a process executed when the user is staying in the “rush mission” described above.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether the vehicle has entered the “rush mission” (S25-1). For example, when the bet button 2a is operated at the time of the "rush mission", it is determined that "the vehicle has entered".
If it is determined that it is the time of the "rush mission" entry (S25-1: Yes), "enemy level determination processing" is executed (S25-2).
In this case, the main control unit 10 operates as the reference value determining means, thereby referring to the “enemy level determination table” shown in FIG. 45 and changing the enemy level from among the enemy levels 1 to 5 according to the current internal mode. To determine.
Next, referring to the “enemy HP determination table” shown in FIG. 32, an “enemy HP determination process” for determining “HP” according to the determined enemy level is executed (S25-3).

On the other hand, if it is determined that it is not the time of the "rush mission" entry (S25-1: No), it is determined whether or not the current gaming state is in the "rush mission" (S25-4), and the "rush mission" is determined. Is determined (S24-4: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as a condition satisfaction determination unit to determine whether the attack condition is satisfied (S25-5). .
The attack condition is, for example, a condition of winning other than “outside” or “normal replay”. If it is determined that the attack condition is satisfied (S25-5: Yes), the winning combination of the current game is rare. It is determined whether or not it is a combination (S25-6).
When it is determined that the rare role has been won (S25-6: Yes), the “enemy damage number determination special process” is executed (S25-7). Specifically, with reference to the “enemy damage number determination special table” shown in FIG. 34, the “enemy damage number” is determined according to the winning combination.
If it is determined that a player other than the rare role has been won (S25-6: No), an "enemy damage number determination process" is executed (S25-8). Specifically, the “enemy damage number” is determined according to the enemy level with reference to the “enemy damage number determination table” shown in FIG.

Next, the main control unit 10 operates as a condition satisfaction determination unit to determine whether the “rush mission” end condition has been satisfied (S25-9).
The ending condition of the “rush mission” is based on the condition that “HP” of the enemy character or the ally character has become zero. If it is determined that the ending condition is satisfied (S25-9: Yes), then It is determined whether or not the ally has won (S25-10).
If it is determined that the ally has lost (S25-10: No), a "rush mission end process" for terminating the "rush mission" (for example, transmitting an end command to the sub control unit 20) is executed. (S25-14).
On the other hand, when it is determined that the teammate has won (S25-10: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as a privilege granting unit, thereby executing a “rush stock number determination process” (S25-11). Specifically, the number of rush stocks to be provided is determined with reference to a “rush stock number determination table” shown in FIG.

If the teammate wins, subsequently, a "rush mission consecutive battle determination process" is executed (S25-12).
Specifically, with reference to the “continuation battle determination table” shown in FIG. 46, it is determined whether or not to perform “continuation battle” according to the enemy level and the current internal mode.
If it is determined that the “serial battle” has been determined (S25-13: Yes), the “rush mission” can be executed again, and if it is determined that the “non-serial battle” has been determined (S25-13: No) ), A “rush mission end process” for terminating the “rush mission” (for example, transmitting an end command to the sub control unit 20) is executed (S25-14).

<Attack processing>
FIG. 71 is a flowchart showing the “attack processing” performed by the main control unit 10.
The “attack process” is a process executed when the user stays in the “attack” described above.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the vehicle has entered the “attack” (S26-1). For example, when the bet button 2a is operated at the time of “attack”, it is determined that “entered”.
If it is determined that it is the time of "attack" entry (S26-1: Yes), "attack continuation rate determination processing" is executed (S26-2).
In this case, the "attack continuation rate" is determined with reference to the "attack continuation rate determination table" shown in FIG.

On the other hand, when it is determined that it is not the time of the "attack" entry (S26-1: No), it is determined whether or not the current game state is "attack" (S26-3), and the "attack" is being performed. When it is determined that there is a game (S26-3: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as an increase number determination unit, thereby executing the “additional game number determination process” (S26-4).
Specifically, the number of additional games is determined according to the winning combination that has been won in the current game with reference to the “attack additional game number determination table” shown in FIG. The determined number of additional games is added (increased) to the number of AT games in the “rush stage” of the transition destination.

Next, “additional game number division display determination processing” is executed (S26-5).
Specifically, with reference to the “attack additional game number division display determination table” shown in FIG. 49, it is determined whether or not the additional game number determined in S26-4 is divided and displayed. Based on this determination, the number of additional games is displayed on a notifying means such as the display 8.

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not it is the final game (6G) of “Attack” (S26-6).
If it is determined that the game is the final game (S26-6: Yes), an “attack continuation determination process” is executed (S26-7).
Specifically, it is determined whether or not to continue “attack” based on the continuation rate determined in S26-2.
If it is determined that “continuation” has been determined (S26-8: Yes), the “attack” with six games as one set again continues, and if it is determined that “non-continuation” has been determined (S26). -8: No), "attack end processing" for terminating "attack" is executed (S26-9).

<Drive processing>
FIG. 72 is a flowchart showing the “drive process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The “drive process” is a process executed when the user stays at the “drive”.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the current gaming state is “driving” (S27-1), and when determining that the current gaming state is “driving” (S27-1: Yes), It is determined whether or not the game is the fourth set start game (first game) (S27-2).
When it is determined that the game is the start game of the fourth set (S27-2: Yes), "drive continuation determination processing" is executed (S27-3). Specifically, with reference to the “drive continuation determination table” shown in FIG. 50, it is determined whether to continue the “drive”.

Next, the main control unit 10 operates as an increase number determining unit, thereby executing “additional-drive additional determination processing” (S27-4).
Specifically, the number of additional games is determined according to the winning combination that has been won in the current game, with reference to the "drive additional game number determination table" shown in FIG. The number of additional games determined here is added (increased) to the number of AT games in the “rush stage” of the transition destination.
It is determined whether or not the number of additional games has been determined (S27-5). If it is determined that the number has been determined (S27-5: Yes), the result determined in S27-3 is “non-continuation”. It is determined whether or not it is (S27-6).
If it is determined that the continuation state is “non-continuation” (S27-6: Yes), “drive continuation state change processing” is executed (S27-7).
In other words, even if it is determined that “non-continuation” has been determined in S27-3, if the lottery of the number of additional games is won in the subsequent game during “drive”, the non-continuation is set (stored). The process of changing the continuation state that is being performed to “continuation” is performed, and the “drive” is continued (connected).

Next, it is determined whether the “drive” end condition is satisfied (S27-8).
The ending condition of the “drive” is that the continuation state is “non-continuation” and that the sixth game, which is the final game of one set, has been reached. If it is determined that the ending condition is satisfied, (S27-8: Yes) Then, it is determined whether or not "drive" has continued for 20 sets or more.
If it is determined that 20 or more sets have not been continued (S27-9: No), "drive end processing" for terminating "drive" is executed (S27-11).
On the other hand, if it is determined that 20 sets or more have been continued (S27-9: Yes), an "ending shift control process" for shifting to "ending" is executed (S27-10).

<Ending process>
FIG. 73 is a flowchart illustrating the “ending process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The “ending process” is a process executed when the user is staying at the “ending” described above.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the current gaming state is “ending” (S28-1). If it is determined that the game state is “ending” (S28-1: Yes), It is determined whether or not a predetermined winning combination has been won (S28-2).
When it is determined that the predetermined winning combination has not been won (S28-2: No), the “ending process” is ended, and when it is determined that the predetermined winning combination has been won (S28-2: Yes). ), And execute the "low probability mode special stock determination process" (S28-3).
Specifically, with reference to the “special stock determination table” shown in FIG. 36, it is determined whether or not to acquire the special stock based on the winning combination that has been won.

Next, it is determined whether or not the game is the last game of the “ending” (100G) (S28-4).
If it is determined that the game is the final game (S28-4: Yes), it is determined whether or not special stock has been acquired in S28-3 (S28-5).
If the special stock has been acquired (S28-5: Yes), "special stock type determination processing in low probability mode" is executed (S28-6).
Specifically, a lottery for determining the game state (stage) of the transfer destination is performed with reference to the "special stock type determination table" shown in FIG.
When a plurality of special stocks are acquired during the “ending”, the lottery is performed by the number of the acquired stocks, and control is performed so as to shift to each game state (stage) in the determined order. Next, an “ending ending process” for ending the “ending” is executed (S28-7).

<7 seg chance processing>
FIG. 74 is a flowchart showing the “7-segment chance process” performed by the main control unit 10.
In the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, a “7-segment effect” using the 7-segment display 14 is executed during the “advantageous game state”.
The “seven-segment effect” has a game property that, when a three-digit number is displayed on the seven-segment display 14, rush stock can be obtained according to the displayed number.

First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not a specific combination ("special replay 1") has been won (S29-1).
If it is determined that the “special replay 1” has not been won (S29-1: No), the “7-segment chance process” is terminated, and if it is determined that the “special replay 1” has been won (S29). -2: Yes), and executes “7-segment execution determination processing” (S29-3).
Specifically, with reference to the “seven-segment chance determination table” shown in FIG. 52, it is determined whether or not to execute the “seven-segment effect”. For example, “execution” is determined with a probability of 2/255, and “non-execution” is determined with a probability of 253/255.

If it is determined that “non-execution” has been determined (S29-3: No), the “seven-segment process” ends, and if it is determined that “execution” has been determined (S29-3: Yes). , The 7-segment display 14 starts changing the 7-segment and executes the “7-segment chance determination process” (S29-4).
Specifically, with reference to the “seven-segment chance determination table” shown in FIG. 53, it is determined whether or not the “seven-segment effect” is to be executed. It is supposed to. Note that the probability of determining whether or not to execute “seven-segment production” is not limited to this, and can be set arbitrarily. For example, the probability can be made different according to the game setting value or the winning combination.

As a result of the lottery, in the case of “non-winning”, the display of the changing three-digit seven-segment is stopped at a break.
On the other hand, when the result of the lottery is “winning”, the display of the changing three-digit 7-seg is stopped at the second slot.
At this time, the number of rush stocks to be given as a privilege is determined by lottery. For example, when the determined number of rush stocks is “1”, a three-digit 7-segment display is displayed as an even number (2, 4). , 6,8), and when the determined rush stock number is “2”, the display of 7-segment of 3 digits is stopped at the odd number (1,3,5,9). If the determined rush stock number is "3", the display of the 3-digit 7-seg is stopped at the seventh slot.

<Bonus game state processing>
FIG. 75 is a flowchart showing the “bonus game state process” performed by the main control unit 10.
The “bonus game state process” is executed when the current game state is “bonus”, and each process is executed according to the type of bonus.
More specifically, the "Normal Bonus Process" (S31), which starts execution when the combination of the symbols "Red 7, Red 7, Red Blank" has stopped on the winning line, and "Red 7, Red 7, Red 7" The "super bonus process" (S32), which starts execution when the symbol combination of "Red 7" stops on the winning line, and the symbol combination of "White 7, White 7, White 7" is on the winning line. There is a “white bonus process” (S <b> 33) in which the execution is started upon stopping.

<Super bonus processing>
FIG. 76 is a flowchart illustrating the “super bonus process” performed by the main control unit 10.
First, the main control unit 10 determines whether or not the current gaming state is during the “super bonus” (S32-1). When it is determined that the current gaming state is during the “super bonus” (S32-1: Yes) ), It is determined whether or not "S Red 7 Replay" has been won (S32-2).
If it is determined that the "S red 7 replay" has been won (S32-2: Yes), "the rush stock number determination processing when the S red 7 is aligned" is executed (S32-3).
More specifically, the number of rush stocks is determined with reference to a “rush stock number determination table for when red 7 is aligned” shown in FIG.
Next, in a state where the left reel 41a and the right reel 42b are changing (non-stop state), it is determined whether or not the “red 7” symbol has stopped at the middle stage in the middle reel 41b (S32-4).
If it is determined that the “red 7” symbol has stopped at the middle stage of the middle reel 41b (S32-4: Yes), the sub control unit 20 operates as the specific effect execution means, for example, by the special sound (“ ") (Specific effect) is output (S32-5).

In S32-2, if it is determined that “S Red 7 Replay” has not been won (S32-2: No), it is determined whether or not “W Red 7 Replay” has been won (S32-6). ).
If it is determined that "W Red 7 Replay" has been won (S32-6: Yes), "Wash 7 aligned Rush Stock Number Determination Process" is executed (S32-7).
More specifically, the number of rush stocks is determined with reference to a “rush stock number determination table for when red 7 is aligned” shown in FIG.

Next, on the winning line, "watermelon / red 7 / red blank", "watermelon / red 7 / bell" (first stop display mode) are stopped, and S red 7 is completed, or "red blank / red 7 / red" It is determined whether the W red 7 set in which the "blank" (second stop display mode) stops has stopped (S32-8).
If it is determined that the seven sets of S reds or the seven sets of W reds have stopped (S32-8: Yes), a blessing image such as, for example, "Congratulations !!" is displayed on the display 8 (S32-9). .
This image is displayed if the right (rush stock) is acquired even if the combination of the seven S red and seven W red symbols is not stopped.

In S32-6, when it is determined that “S Red 7 Replay” has not been won (S32-6: No), it is determined whether or not “out” has been won (S32-10).
When it is determined that "losing" has been won (S32-10: Yes), the main control unit 10 operates as an increase number determining means, thereby executing "additional game number determination processing" (S32-11). .
Specifically, the “number of additional games” is determined with reference to the “super bonus medium additional game number determination table” shown in FIG. The determined “number of additional games” is added (added) to the number of AT games of the “rush stage” to which the game shifts after the bonus ends.

  As described above, the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment can exhibit the following effects.

For example, according to the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the specific number (the number of AT initial games) of the “rush stage” of the “advantageous game state” is increased during the “field” of the “normal game state”. The number of additional games (additional fixed initial games) can be determined, and this additional fixed initial game number is calculated by multiplying the additional initial games determined during the “field” and the additional multiplier. It has become.
As described above, the increase number (additional fixed initial game number) for extending the game period of the “rush stage” is determined by the additional initial game number and the additional multiplier, so that the number of extended (additional) games varies. Can be provided. This can prevent the game from becoming monotonous and improve the interest.
In addition, although the number of added-up fixed initial games calculated during the “field” is reported, the added-up magnification is not reported, so that the game property of estimating the current added-up magnification from the notified number of added-up fixed initial games is notified. It can be realized and the interest of the game can be enhanced.

On the other hand, Patent Document 1 discloses a gaming machine in which, when a predetermined winning combination is won, the number of additional games for increasing the number of games during ART is determined and the number of additional games is given.
However, the number of additional games awarded according to the winning combination is likely to be uniform, so that the game becomes monotonous and the interest of the game is reduced.

Further, for example, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, a specific effect (battle game) capable of acquiring the right to execute the “advantageous game state” is defined as “normal mission” and “advantageous game” in the “normal game state”. It can be executed in both the "rush mission" in the "game state", and the "battle game" performed during the "normal mission" ends when the right is acquired, while the "rush mission" In the “battle game” performed during the game, there is a case where a series of villas (continuous battle) is performed even if the right is acquired.
Thus, even in the case of the "battle game" in which the effect contents are almost the same, different game characteristics can be provided according to the timing of occurrence, so that the game can be prevented from being monotonous.

On the other hand, Patent Literature 2 discloses a specific effect state (ART state) that shifts based on a predetermined shift condition being satisfied, and includes an effect mode in which the number of games is added in the specific effect state. A gaming machine is disclosed.
However, even if this effect mode occurs at any time during the game, the game characteristics do not change, so that the game is monotonous, and the interest of the game is reduced.

Further, for example, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, when the “S 7 sets” are stopped during the super bonus, the right (rush stock) for executing the “advantageous game state” is given, and the super bonus is executed. When the "7 Red Wing" is stopped, more rush stock is given than the "7 Red Wing".
When “S Red 7 Alignment” or “W Red 7 Alignment” can be stopped and displayed, the “Red 7” symbol is displayed in the middle stage on the middle reel 41 b in a state where the left reel 41 a and the right reel 41 c are in the variable display. When the "Red 7" symbol is stopped and displayed in the middle stage of the middle reel 41b, it is determined that the "S Red 7 aligned" or the "W Red 7 aligned" is stopped, and a special sound is displayed. Is output, the "S Red 7 Alignment" is in a stoppable state, and if it is not output, the "W Red 7 Alignment" is in a stoppable state.
Thereby, the effect can be made different according to the privilege given to the player, so that the game can be prevented from being monotonous.

  On the other hand, in the conventional slot machine, regarding the profits such as the number of additional games and the number of additional stocks in the ART, the same effects are performed despite the different profits to be given, so that the game becomes monotonous, and the interest in the game decreases. I was invited.

As described above, according to the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to give an interest, an interest, an excitement, and an expectation that are not present in the effect display performed by the conventional gaming machine to the player. It is possible to realize new game characteristics.
Further, according to the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, all or a part of such problems to be improved by the conventional gaming machine can be solved.

  In the invention according to the embodiment described above, the following cases can be applied as modified or applied embodiments.

For example, the present invention may be applied to an AT machine. That is, the RT state may not exist.
Although RT0 to RT4 are all infinite RTs, some or all of them may be finite RTs.
In addition, when the promotion replay is stopped, the transition from RT1 to RT2 and from RT2 to RT3 is made. However, due to the stop display of other small wins, the stop display of small wins, or the elapse of a predetermined number of games, etc. The transition may be made.
Further, the winning probability of the replay combination is set according to the type of the RT, but the winning probability of the replay combination is not limited to this numerical value. For example, an RT having a higher probability than RT2 and RT3 may exist.
Further, even if the bonus is won, the RT state (RT3) at the time of winning the bonus may be maintained without shifting to the RT4.

Further, in the present embodiment, the addition magnification is not notified. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a predetermined timing (for example, a timing at which the effect button is operated) may be notified, or the notification may be always performed. It may be.
In addition, when the total number of added initial games or the number of initial games determined to be added exceeds a predetermined value (for example, 300 G), the addition rate may be notified.
Further, when a bonus is won during the “field”, an additional multiplication rate may be notified from the winning to the winning of the bonus.
Alternatively, a lottery may be performed to determine whether or not the additional magnification is to be notified, and the notification may be made according to the lottery result.
Also, by providing a low-probability state, a high-probability state, and a super-high-probability state in the `` field '', for example, the internal state before entering the `` field '' is taken over, and the additional magnification is set according to the internal state to stay. The value may be determined, or there may be a value that is determined only in a specific internal state (for example, the additional magnification “10” is determined only in the very high probability state).
Further, the determination as to whether or not to notify the additional magnification may be set by the player.
The additional magnification is not limited to “1” to “4” described above (see FIG. 28), and may be “5” or more. Further, a value having a decimal point may be provided for the additional magnification.

Further, in the present embodiment, the battle is not performed consecutively in the “battle game” during the “normal mission”, and the battle is performed continuously in the “battle game” during the “rush mission”, but is not limited thereto. May be set to the opposite.
In the “Battle Game” in the “Normal Mission” and the “Rush Mission”, the right to be acquired when winning is not limited to the rush stock, and the number of additional games and other rights may be given. In addition, if the number of games can be added in the “Normal Mission” and “Rush Mission”, depending on the level of the enemy who won, the number of games can be added, rush stock can be added, or both can be added. May be specified. For example, the rush stock may be added when the enemy level is 1 or 3, the number of games may be added when the enemy level is 2 or 4, and both may be added when the enemy level is 5.

In the present embodiment, the normal bonus, the super bonus, and the white bonus are provided as the types of the “bonus”. However, only one of them may be provided, or none of them may be provided.
When no bonus is provided, for example, another RT type may be provided, the RT may be used as a pseudo bonus, and the pseudo bonus may be provided with a bonus function.
Further, in the present embodiment, rush stock can be obtained when “S Red 7 Replay” or “W Red 7 Replay” is won, and the number of additional games can be obtained when “Outside” is won. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The opposite is also possible.
Further, in the present embodiment, when the special sound (“one sure”) is output, “S Red 7 Alignment” can be stopped, and when not output, “W Red 7 Alignment” can be stopped. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and conversely, a special sound (“one sure”) is output when “W Red 7 Alignment” can be stopped, and “S Red 7 Alignment” is not output in the stoppable state. You may.
In addition, a special sound (“Ichi”) may be output according to a predetermined condition. For example, the special sound is output when the number of bonuses obtained during the bonus exceeds a predetermined value, or according to a game state before the bonus prize is won. May be enabled.

Further, the winning probability according to each table (FIGS. 9 to 56) of the present embodiment is limited to the above-described value, and can be arbitrarily changed.
In addition, by providing a low-probability state, a high-probability state, and a super-high-probability state during the “normal mission”, for example, the internal state before entering the “normal mission” is taken over, and the “battle” It may be easier to win the game.

In the present embodiment, the “normal stage” is defined as a normal section, and the other gaming states are defined as advantageous sections, and the number of games (continuous games) in which the advantageous section continues is set with an upper limit of 1500 games or the like. You may. When the number of continuous games reaches 1500 games, it is preferable to initialize the number of remaining AT games at that time (to "zero"). Further, when the number of continuous games reaches 1500 games, the RT state may be forcibly shifted to RT1 and shifted to the “normal stage”, except for the case where the bonus is being performed.
Thereby, for example, gambling due to the AT game number being increased without upper limit due to the winning of the additional game number during the “advantageous game state” can be suppressed.
Further, during the advantageous section, it is preferable that the advantageous state lamp 13 be turned on and blinked. Note that the advantageous state lamp 13 may be, for example, a “dot” portion of 7 seg.

In the present embodiment, the main control unit 10 performs operations as various units such as the game state control unit, but the sub-control unit 20 performs a part or all of the operations, and the sub-control unit 20 operates as various units. You can also.
Conversely, the sub-control unit 20 operates as various means such as the specific effect execution means, but the main control unit 10 performs part or all of the operations, and the main control unit 10 operates as various means. Can also.

Further, the present invention is applied to a slot machine, but may be applied to other game machines such as a pachinko (for example, a ball slot).
In addition, the present invention can be applied to a so-called enclosed game machine that can execute a game using a pseudo game medium in a data format without using an actual game medium such as a medal or a game ball.

  Further, in each embodiment, a reel driven and controlled by a motor is used as the variable display means, but instead or in addition to this, an image in which the design of the reel changes on a display such as a liquid crystal display is displayed. By displaying the information, the display device can be used as a variable display unit of the identification information.
