FIG. 127 is a table relating to the numbering numbers applicable to this example.

First, the meaning of each term in the present specification will be described. A "random number" is a random number used in a lottery (a lottery by an electronic computer, which may also be called a lottery) for determining some game content in a rotating game machine, and in addition to a random number in a narrow sense. Pseudo-random numbers are also included (for example, hard random numbers as random numbers, built-in random numbers generated by a main control chip including a CPU, soft random numbers as pseudo-random numbers). For example, so-called "basic random numbers" that affect the outcome of the game, specifically, "winning random numbers" related to special roles and winning roles (small roles, re-game roles) for transitioning to special games, etc. Can be mentioned. The term "CPU" is synonymous with what is well known in the art, and is not limited to the architecture (CISC, RISC, number of bits, etc.) and processing performance used. "Power outage" means that the power supply voltage supplied to the gaming machine is below a certain level regardless of whether or not the power switch provided in the gaming machine is operated. For example, power supply It also includes the interruption of power supply due to unforeseen circumstances such as damage to the unit or power outage. "ROM" is synonymous with what is well known in the art, and physically holds information (for example, "1" if the element configuration is conductive when a current for reading data is applied, and conducts. If the element configuration does not, it will be "0"). RAM is synonymous with what is well known in the industry, and holds information electrically (for example, when a current for reading data is applied, it is "1" if it is stored, and if it is not stored, it is not. It is set to "0". It should be noted that it is generally configured so that backup power is supplied to a part or all of the data held in the RAM at the time of power failure). The "game state" corresponds to, for example, a special game state in which a game medal can be easily obtained and is advantageous to the player (a so-called big hit game, which is called a bonus game, a first-class BB, a second-class BB, or the like. ), The winning rate of the re-gaming combination is higher (or lower) than the normal gaming state in which the winning rate of the re-gaming combination is a predetermined value. Examples include the reel stop order for winning a medal, an AT (assist time) state in which the stop position can be notified, and an ART (assist replay time) state in which the RT state and the AT state are combined. Further, even in the normal game state, the lottery probability of transition to the RT state, the AT state, and the ART state is different, the high probability normal game state, the low probability normal game state, etc. (in this example, it is referred to as the lottery state. ). In addition, there is no problem even if the game states are combined {Furthermore, these game states and functions (for example, a lottery for shifting to the AT state, output of a notification instruction related to the reel stop order, etc.) control the game progress. There is no problem even if all are mounted on the main control board side}. Further, in this example, the state related to AT and the RT state are described separately, and the RT state is referred to as "RT1" and the state related to AT is referred to as "normal gaming state". Collectively, the state related to ART may be referred to as a "normal game state" or the like as a state related to ART. The "winning combination" is a type (or condition device number) of a conditional device that has been won by an internal lottery (sometimes referred to as an internal note lottery). The "notification state" is a state related to an AT capable of executing push order navigation, which will be described later, and even if the game is won by a conditional device in which push order navigation is not executed because the winning combination does not differ depending on the reel stop order. , If the state related to AT is a state in which push order navigation can be executed, it is configured to be a "notification state". The "counter value" is also referred to as "the number of games that can be executed for notification games", and is the number of remaining AT games or the counter value of the AT counter M60, which will be described later. For example, when the "number of playable notification games" is 1 or more (the game in which "0" is set may be included), the push order navigation described later can be executed. In addition, as the "number of playable notification games", the difference number of game media obtained based on the winning of the small winning combination (mainly the pushing order bell role) (the number of payouts minus the input number) and the number of pushes The number of times the winning bell role is won may be adopted. Further, the "special notification state" is a state that is most advantageous to the player among the states related to AT, and in this example, it is referred to as an "additional specialization state". Further, the "specific condition" is a condition in which the AT counter value can be subtracted, and the specific condition is, for example, that one game is completed, a predetermined combination (for example, a push order bell combination) is won, and the like. "Type 1 special accessory" is an accessory that increases the number of combinations of symbols related to winning for each specified number, or increases the probability that the condition device related to winning for each specified number will operate, and is determined in advance. It operates when it is played, and the operation can be continued until the result of the game is obtained not more than 12 times, and it is sometimes called RB (regular bonus). The "type 1 special accessory continuous operation device" is a device capable of continuously operating the type 1 special accessory, and is activated when a specific combination of symbols is displayed and is predetermined. The operation is terminated in the above, and it may be called BB (Big Bonus) or Type 1 BB. The "Type 2 special accessory" is an accessory that activates the condition device related to winning regardless of the result of the combination lottery, and it operates when it is determined in advance, and the result of one game can be obtained. If this happens, the operation will be terminated, and it may be called CB (Challenge Bonus). The "type 2 special accessory continuous operation device" is a device that can continuously operate the type 2 special accessory, and is activated when a specific combination of symbols is displayed and is predetermined. The operation is terminated in the above, and it is sometimes called MB (middle bonus) or type 2 BB. The "ordinary accessory" is an accessory that increases the number of combinations of symbols related to winning for each specified number, or increases the probability that the condition device related to winning for each specified number is activated, and is an accessory of a specific symbol. It operates when the combination is displayed and ends when the result of one game is obtained, and is sometimes referred to as SB (single bonus). The "all JACIN type" is a configuration in which when a first-class BB combination wins a prize, it is regarded as JACIN, and the first-class BB is always in RB during execution. Further, the "JACIN lottery type" is a configuration in which the non-RB and the RB are repeatedly executed when the first type BB is executed. The "uncontrolled reel" is a reel in which the pull-in control that can be executed after the stop operation is not executed is not executed, and the reel is stopped at the closest reel position that can be stopped from the reel position where the stop operation is accepted. It is a reel of. The "all CB type" is a configuration that is always in the CB when the second type BB is executed. The "CB transition lottery type" is a configuration in which non-CB and CB are repeatedly executed when the second type BB is executed.

It is equipped with an operation console that protrudes to the side. Hereinafter, each element will be described in detail.

<Mechanism for making the game state visible>
Next, a main part of the mechanism for making the gaming state visible will be described. The reel window D160 is a transparent member formed of a synthetic resin or the like that constitutes a part of the front door DU, and is configured so that the reel unit installed in the gaming machine frame can be visually recognized through the reel window D160. Further, the input number indicator lamp D210 is composed of three LEDs, and the same number of LEDs as the number of medals currently bet (inserting the game medals necessary for starting one game) are lit. It is configured as. Specifically, the input number indicator lamp D210 is composed of three LEDs (lamps) of a 1-bet lamp D211, a 2-bet lamp D212, and a 3-bet lamp D213, and one game medal is bet. In the case, the 1-bet lamp D211: lights up, the 2-bet lamp D212: turns off, and the 3-bet lamp D213: turns off. : Lights up, 3-bet lamp D213: turns off, and when there are 3 game medals bet, 1-bet lamp D211: lights up, 2-bet lamp D212: lights up, and 3-bet lamp D213: lights up (re-game). This is not the case in the next game where is stopped and displayed, and details will be described later). Further, the start lamp D180 is composed of LEDs and lights up when the operation of the start lever D50 is valid (accepting the operation), and the operation of the start lever D50 is invalid (the operation is not accepted). It is configured to turn off in some cases. Further, the re-game lamp D290 is composed of LEDs, and is configured to be turned on when the re-game is stopped and displayed, and turned off when the next game when the re-game is stopped and displayed is completed. Further, the insertable lamp D300 lights up (may be blinking) when the insertion of the game medal into the medal insertion slot D170 is effective, or when the operation of the bet button D220 is effective, and the insertion of the game medal is performed. It is configured to turn off when it is invalid or when the operation of the bet button D220 is invalid. Further, the special game status display device D250 is configured by a 7-segment display, and is configured to display the total number of payouts paid out during the special game. It should be noted that the special game status display device D250 may not be provided, and in such a configuration, the total number of payouts may be made by the effect display device S40 (also referred to as the second information display unit) described later. By configuring to display, the player can recognize the total number of payouts paid out during the special game, and can be a user-friendly gaming machine. Further, the credit number display device D200 is configured by a 7-segment display, and is configured to display the total number of medals (the number of credits) stored in the game machine as the player's medals. Further, the payout number display device (push order display device) D270 is composed of a 7-segment display, and the number of game medals currently paid out and the reel stop order (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button). The winning combination may differ depending on the stop order of D43). Is a reel that is most advantageous to the player in a game in which the profit margin (the number of payouts, the RT state after that, etc.) given to the player can be different. It is configured so that the stop order can be notified (the notification may be referred to as push order navigation). In this way, the payout number display device (push order display device) D270 is configured to be able to execute two displays, that is, the number of game medals currently paid out and the reel stop order that is most profitable to the player. Therefore, the display mode is such that the player does not misunderstand which of the two displays is being executed, and the details of the display mode will be described later. Further, the AT counter value display device D280 plays a game according to the push order navigation display displayed on the push order display device D270 (also referred to as the first information display unit) among the states related to AT (details will be described later). It is possible to display the number of games that can stay in a state related to AT that is advantageous for the player, which is guaranteed when the game progresses (in this example, it may be referred to as a push order navigation state or a notification game, and details will be described later). It is configured as. The AT counter value display device D280 may not be provided. In such a configuration, the player can display the number of games that can stay in the AT state on the effect display device S40. Can recognize the number of games for which the state related to the advantageous AT is guaranteed, and can be a user-friendly gaming machine. The payout number display device (push order display device) D270 may be configured to be divided into two devices, a payout number display device and a push order display device.

Further, the advantageous section indicator YH is composed of LEDs, and is configured to turn on when it is in the "advantageous section" and turn off when it is not in the "advantageous section" (for lighting and extinguishing timing). Will be described later). Here, in the reel-type gaming machine according to this example, as in the conventional reel-cylinder-type gaming machine, it is easy to obtain a game medal and a special gaming state (so-called jackpot game, which is a bonus game) that is advantageous for the player. , 1st class BB, 2nd class BB, etc.), the winning rate of the replaying combination is higher (or lower) than the normal gaming state where the winning rate of the replaying combination is a predetermined value. The re-game probability fluctuation game state (RT state), the stop order of the reels for winning the winning combination, the AT (assist time) state in which the stop position can be notified, and the RT state and the AT state are A combined ART (assist replay time) state, etc. can be taken, but apart from these "game states", any one of the three "game sections" of "normal section", "standby section" and "advantageous section". Can be set. In this example, the "waiting section" is not set, and either the "normal section" or the "advantageous section" is set. Of these, the "advantageous section" is positioned as being relatively more advantageous to the player than the other "game sections". For example, the "game state" is the AT state or the ART state. It is associated with an "advantageous section". That is, when the "game state" is in the AT state or the ART state, the advantageous section indicator YH lights up, but as will be described later, the setting control of the "game section" is also the setting control of the "game state". Similarly, since it is performed on the main control board side that controls the game progress, whether or not the game progress status is relatively advantageous to the player depends on the lighting / extinguishing status of the advantageous section indicator YH. It is possible to convey to the player without telling a lie. As will be described later, if the "advantageous section" continues until the predetermined upper limit number of games (for example, 1500 games) is reached, the "normal section" is forcibly set, but in that case, it remains. Since the state related to AT is also forcibly terminated (the information for maintaining the AT state is cleared and initialized), the change of the set "game section" also affects the transition of the "game state". It can be given, and as a result, it is possible to automatically suppress a significant increase in gambling due to a "game state" such as an AT state or an ART state, which has a relatively high degree of freedom in design. It is. As described above, if the "advantageous section" continues until the predetermined upper limit number of games (for example, 1500 games) is reached, the "normal section" is forcibly set, that is, the "advantageous section" ends. However, the end condition of the "advantageous section" is not limited to this. The end condition of the "advantageous section" in the revolving pachinko machine according to this example is the push that can acquire the small win with the largest number of payouts among the small wins that make up the "push order combination (combination with push order)". Sequential navigation One execution (for example, if there are seven, three, or one small winning combination as a small winning combination, the seven small winning combination with the largest number of payouts can be obtained. If there is a push order combination in which 7 or 1 cards can be obtained depending on the push order and a push order combination in which 3 cards can be obtained depending on the push order, the push order navigation in which 3 cards can be obtained is referred to here. "Not applicable to push order navigation)" or "Winning any of BB, RB, MB" and "Arbitrary end condition (40G 1 set loop lottery non-winning (AT), fixed 32G" The end condition is to satisfy "Progress (precursor), etc.)" or "Advantageous section 1500G". In the case of a specification in which there is no push order bell combination (example: there is a push order for replay to shift the RT state, but there is no small combination in which the number of payouts differs depending on the push order). The condition for ending the advantageous section of "one push order navigation that can acquire the small winning combination with the largest number of payouts" is excluded. Further, in the present embodiment, as the small winning combination constituting the pushing order combination, the small winning combination corresponding to the 11-card combination and the small combination including the small winning combination corresponding to the 1-card combination are formed. "Execution of push order navigation once for which small wins can be obtained" means to notify the push order in which 11 medals can be obtained (11 wins can be won).

<Mechanism for enabling input of game media>
Next, the main part of the mechanism for enabling the input of the game medium will be described. The medal slot D170 is a slot for inserting medals, and the game medals inserted into the slot are guided to the inside of the gaming machine in a situation where medals can be accepted. Further, as sensors for detecting the insertion of medals, the insertion reception sensor D10s, the first insertion sensor D20s, and the second insertion sensor D30s are provided inside the gaming machine, and are guided to the inside of the gaming machine. When it is determined that the game medal has been inserted normally, the inserted medal can be detected as a bet medal. Further, the bet button D220 is configured to be operable by a player, and is configured so that a stored medal (credit medal) can be bet by the operation. Further, the settlement button D60 is configured to be operable by the player, and the stored medals (credit medals) and / or the bet medals can be refunded to the player by the operation. There is. The game medals refunded by operating the settlement button D60 are configured to be paid out to the discharge port D240.

<Medal Selector DS>
Next, the medal selector DS will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a path (selector) of a game medal inserted into the medal insertion slot D170 inside the rotating body type gaming machine P. The medal selector DS is provided with an insertion reception sensor D10s that serves as a passage for game medals inserted from the medal insertion port D170 near the door substrate D, and below the insertion reception sensor D10s, a game medal discharge port D240. A coin shooter D90 or the like is provided to guide the driver. The insertion reception sensor D10s has a function of selecting game medals inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 mainly based on the dimensions and accepting only game medals conforming to the standard dimensions, and it is determined that the insertion reception sensor D10s does not conform to this function. The medal (or other foreign matter) is configured to be refunded to the outlet D240 by the blocker D100. If a game medal is inserted before the player operates the start lever D50 (when the insertion of the game medal is valid), the game medals are selected by the insertion reception sensor D10s, and only those that satisfy the standard are satisfied. The medals that have been inserted into the hopper H40 and do not meet the standards are returned to the discharge port D240 through the coin shooter D90. On the other hand, if a game medal is inserted after the start lever D50 is operated (when the insertion of the game medal is not valid), the inserted game medal is inserted regardless of whether or not the standard is satisfied. Is returned to the discharge port D240 through the coin shooter D90. Further, inside the insertion reception sensor D10s (in the back of the flow path), a sensor related to medal insertion, which will be described in detail later, is provided, and when a game medal that satisfies the dimensional standard and is accepted passes, the first insertion sensor D20s And, it is detected by the second input sensor D30s, and the signal is supplied to the main control board M which will be described later.

Next, the sensor related to medal insertion will be described in detail. The game medal inserted into the medal insertion slot D170 first passes through the insertion reception sensor D10s. The insertion reception sensor D10s is a mechanical double sensor, and when the game medal passes, it is turned on by pressing the two protruding mechanisms, and the game medal can normally pass through the passage. .. Further, with such a configuration, when a foreign substance that is not a game medal (a foreign substance that does not satisfy the standard and has a diameter smaller than that of the game medal, for example) is inserted, two protruding mechanisms are pressed. Not done. Since the medal cannot maintain the standing state, such a medal cannot pass through the passage (the medal collapses), and is refunded to the discharge port D240 through the coin shooter D90 as described above. In addition, the input reception sensor D10s is configured so that it can determine an error even when the ON time is continuous for a predetermined time or longer (as a result, the blocker D100 can be turned off). ..

When the game medal normally passes through the blocker D100, it passes through the first throwing sensor D20s and the second throwing sensor D30s immediately after passing. This throw-in sensor (first throw-in sensor D20s and second throw-in sensor D30s) is composed of two sensors (they are arranged adjacent to each other at intervals smaller than the standard diameter of the game medal), and each sensor is turned on. -Various errors can be detected by monitoring the off status (the transition order of the on / off combination of the first input sensor D20s and the second input sensor D30s, etc.) and the on / off time. It is configured in.

<Medal payout device H>
Next, the medal payout device H will be described in detail with reference to the front view and the top view of the medal payout device H of FIG. The medal payout device H is operated by the settlement button in a state where credits (game medals electronically stored inside the game machine) or bet medals (medals inserted to start the game) are present. It will be activated when the game medal is paid out by winning or winning. When operating, first, the hopper motor H80 is driven to rotate the disc H50 around the disc rotation shaft H50a. Due to the rotation, the game medals in the medal payout device H displace the release urging means H70 and flow down from the game medal outlet H60 toward the discharge port D240. The payout sensor (first payout sensor H10s and second payout sensor H20s) is composed of two sensors, and the on / off status of each sensor (first payout sensor H10s and second payout sensor H20s on / off). Various errors can be detected by monitoring the transition order of the off combination, etc.) and the on / off time. More specifically, for example, when the game medal outlet H60 is normally passed, the first payout sensor H10s = off and the second payout sensor H20s = off due to the displacement of the release urging means H70. 1 payout sensor H10s = off, second payout sensor H20s = off → first payout sensor H10s = on, second payout sensor H20s = off → first payout sensor H10s = on, second payout sensor H20s = on → first payout Since the sensor state transition is sensor H10s = off, second payout sensor H20s = on → first payout sensor H10s = off, second payout sensor H20s = off, if a movement contrary to this sensor state transition is detected, , It can be exemplified that it is configured to be an error.

Next, FIG. 5 is a list of basic specifications of the rotating drum type gaming machine according to the present embodiment. The spinning-type gaming machine according to the present embodiment has a specified number (maximum number of game medals that can be bet in one game) of 3, and the number of frames of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53 is 20. , The effective line for which the winning is determined is one line of "left reel M51 upper stage, middle reel M52 middle stage, right reel M53 lower stage". The maximum number of payouts is 11, and the minimum number of payouts is one (the correspondence between the winning combination and the number of payouts will be described later). In addition, the priority winning order (pull-in priority order) is "replaying role-> small role (bell, watermelon, etc.)-> bonus". For example, when the replaying role and the bonus are established at the same time, , The symbol combination that becomes the re-game role is stopped and displayed, and the bonus cannot be won. In addition, when the bell and watermelon are established, if the stop button is pressed at the position where both can be pulled in (the position within 4 frames to the winning stop position), priority is given to the small winning combination with a large number of payouts. It is configured to retract. The configuration shown in the figure is just an example, and the number of frames on each reel can be changed (for example, changed to 21 frames), or the configuration of effective lines can be changed (for example, 5 horizontal lines and 2 diagonal lines). There is no problem even if the line is changed to one line of the left reel M51 lower, the middle reel M52 middle, and the right reel M53 upper). In addition, as a pull-in control when a push order small combination that gives different benefits to the player depending on the push order is won, a small combination with a large number of payouts when operated in a predetermined correct push order. Is controlled to be pulled in with priority (number of sheets priority control), and if the operation is performed in the wrong answer pressing order different from the correct answer pressing order, the stop display is possible (at a position within 4 frames from the stop operation). Control (number priority control) is performed to increase the possibility of winning among the (arranged) symbols (the most likely to win among the combinations of multiple symbols that can be won).

Next, FIG. 6 is a list of reel arrangements of the rotating drum type gaming machine in the present embodiment. As shown in the figure, the number of frames of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53 are all 20 frames (Nos. 0 to 19), and the symbols are "Black Seven", "White Seven", and " There are 10 types: "sheep", "blank", "bell", "replay A", "replay B", "watermelon A", "watermelon B", and "cherry". Here, "blank" is a symbol included in the symbol combination constituting the winning combination like other symbols, and does not mean a symbol not constituting the winning combination, but a symbol constituting the winning combination including "blank". As a combination, for example, "Watermelon B / Replay A / Blank" is replay 02. The configuration shown in the figure is just an example, and there is no problem even if the type of symbol is increased / decreased or changed.

Next, FIGS. 7 to 9 are a list of symbol combinations 1 to 3 in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, there are a plurality of symbol combinations for each condition device, and as will be described later, depending on the stop order and stop position of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53, any of them will be used. It is configured so that one of the symbol combinations is stopped and displayed on the effective line (the above-mentioned one line). Even if the same type of symbols are not aligned on the effective line, it is easy for the player to align the same symbols in a row on the line other than the effective line (in the case of watermelon, in the middle row). Three watermelon symbols are aligned in a straight line on any of the reels, such as in a straight line). Further, in the present embodiment, a combination of symbols serving as a first-class BB combination (a so-called first-class special accessory-related accessory continuous operation device, which may be simply referred to as a BB combination) is used. Type 1 BB-A (RB-A is operated continuously and ends with a payout of more than 264 sheets) "Sheep / Sheep / Sheep" and Type 1 BB-B (RB-B is operated continuously to end 132 sheets) "Black Seven / Black Seven / Black Seven" that ends with a payout that exceeds, and "White Seven / White Seven / that ends with a payout of more than 132 sheets by continuously operating RB-B). It has three symbol combinations with "White Seven". In the present embodiment, when the first-class BB combination is won and the BB is executed (the accessory is activated), one in all the games in the BB during the execution of the BB. It is configured to draw a winning combination (small combination, replaying combination) other than the winning combination by referring to the lottery table (a method in which the table referred to during the combination lottery is not switched during the execution of one BB). (Hereinafter, it may be referred to as an all-JACIN type). The format of the first-class BB combination is not limited to this, and the table to be referred to at the time of the combination lottery may be switched during the execution of one BB. Further, when the RT state is "RT1" and the symbol combination that becomes the replay 04 corresponding to the 14th to 16th is stopped and displayed, it is configured to shift to the RT0 (for details of the RT state, refer to the details of the RT state. Will be described later). Since "RT0" is in an RT state that is more disadvantageous to the player than "RT1", the transition from "RT1" to "RT0" may be referred to as a fall. Further, when the symbol combination corresponding to the 17th replay 05 is stopped and displayed, "Black Seven" can be stopped and displayed in the lower row of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53, and the number 18 is displayed. When the symbol combination that becomes the corresponding replay 05 is stopped and displayed, "white seven" can be stopped and displayed in the lower row of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53 (details will be described later). ). In addition, when the push order bell, which is the condition device of "winning-A1" to "winning-A6" described later, is won, the reels are stopped in the pushing order most advantageous to the player, and the reels are numbered 21 to 27. The symbol combinations corresponding to "Prize 01" to "Prize 03" are stopped and displayed, and 11 game medals are paid out, while the reels are stopped in a push order different from the push order that is most advantageous for the player. , The symbol combinations of "Prize 08" to "Prize 11" corresponding to Nos. 39 to 56 are stopped and displayed, and one game medal is paid out. In addition, "-" in the figure indicates that any symbol may be stopped and displayed. For example, "Bell-Bell" corresponding to No. 23 is an effective line of the left reel M51 and the right reel M53. If the bell is stopped and displayed on the top, 11 game medals can be obtained regardless of which symbol is stopped and displayed on the effective line of the middle reel M52.

Next, FIG. 10 is a list of condition devices according to this embodiment. In the figure, the conditional device number is referred to as a winning number, and the conditional device number may be referred to as a winning number thereafter. In the present embodiment, the re-game combinations are provided from re-game-A to re-game-D3 (winning numbers 1 to 6), and are in the stop order and stop position of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53. Depending on the situation, the re-game combination to be stopped and displayed may be different. Here, in the present embodiment, as shown in the item of "conditional apparatus" in the rightmost column, a plurality of left reels M51, middle reels M52, and right reels M53 are used according to the stop order and stop position. It is configured so that different types of condition devices can be stopped and displayed, and among the multiple types of condition devices, the condition devices with the same winning number are grouped together and are in the third column from the right, "condition device (name)". It is illustrated in the item of. Specifically, for example, in the "replay-A" condition device corresponding to the winning number 1, "replay" is performed according to the stop order and stop position of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53. Three types of condition devices, "01", "re-game 02", and "re-game 03", are configured to be stopped and displayed. The "conditional device (name)" may be simply referred to as a conditional device. In addition, a condition device related to a re-game such as "re-game 01" may be referred to as a re-game combination, and a condition device in which a game medal is paid out by winning a prize such as "winning 01" may be referred to as a small role. A condition device in which the BB starts when a stop display such as "Type 1 BB-A" is displayed may be referred to as a BB combination. In addition, if the winning numbers 21 to 23 and 25 to 27 are won, the BB combination and the small combination will be won in duplicate, and in such a case, the symbol corresponding to the winning small combination will be stopped. When the left stop button D41, the middle stop button D42, and the right stop button D43 are operated at a position where they can be displayed, the symbol corresponding to the BB combination is not stopped and the symbol corresponding to the small combination is stopped and displayed, while the symbol corresponding to the small combination is stopped and displayed. When the left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, and right stop button D43 are operated at a position where the corresponding symbol does not stop and display (cannot be retracted), the symbol corresponding to the small combination does not stop and the symbol corresponding to the BB combination is not displayed. Is configured to stop and display. Specifically, for example, when the condition device of the winning number 21 is "Type 1 BB-B + Winning-C", the cherry that is "Winning 12" or "Winning 13" and "Type 1 BB" Any of the black sevens that are "-B" can be stopped and displayed. More specifically, when the reels are stopped in the order of left reel M51 → middle reel M52 → right reel M53, (1) symbol numbers 0 to 4 are placed on the upper stage of the left reel M51 at the first stop (FIG. 6). When the left stop button D41 is operated at the operation timing at which (see the reel arrangement of) is located, the symbol number 4 corresponding to "winning 12" is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel M51, and the middle reel M52. And regardless of the stop position of the right reel M53, "winning 12" is stopped and displayed. (2) When the left stop button D41 is operated at the operation timing in which the symbol numbers 5 to 12 are located on the upper stage of the left reel M51 at the first stop, "winning 13" is displayed on the upper stage of the left reel M51. The symbol numbers 6, 11, or 16 corresponding to the above are stopped, and "winning 13" is stopped and displayed regardless of the stop positions of the middle reel M52 and the right reel M53. (3-1) When the left stop button D41 is operated at the operation timing in which the symbol numbers 13 to 19 are located on the upper stage of the left reel M51 at the first stop, "1" is displayed on the upper stage of the left reel M51. The symbol number 17 or 19 corresponding to "Seed BB-B" stops. (3-2) When the middle stop button D42 is operated at the operation timing at which the symbol numbers 14 to 18 are located in the middle of the middle reel M52 at the second stop, "1" is placed in the middle of the middle reel M52. The symbol number 18 corresponding to "Seed BB-B" is stopped, and then the right stop button D43 is operated at the operation timing when the symbol numbers 13 to 17 are located at the lower stage of the right reel M53 at the third stop. In that case, the symbol number 17 corresponding to "Type 1 BB-B" is stopped at the lower stage of the right reel M53, and the BB combination is stopped and displayed. (3-3) When the middle stop button D42 is operated at the operation timing in which symbol numbers 19 to 13 are located in the middle of the middle reel M52 at the second stop, "1" is placed in the middle of the middle reel M52. The symbol number 18 corresponding to "Type BB-B" cannot be stopped, and none of the condition devices is stopped and displayed.

Next, in the "role" item, what kind of role the "condition device (name)" plays is illustrated, and the "normal replay" corresponding to the winning number 1 is in the order in which the stop button is pressed. Regardless, it is a condition device related to the re-game in which the re-game combination whose RT state does not shift is stopped and displayed, and the "reverse push white 7-matched replay" corresponding to the winning number 2 is RT regardless of the order in which the stop buttons are pressed. It is a condition device related to the re-game in which the state does not change and the re-game combination is stopped and displayed. However, when the reel is pushed backward (the reels are stopped in the order of right reel M53 → middle reel M52 → left reel M51), the right reel M53 The range of symbol numbers 18 to 2, the range of symbol numbers 9 to 13 of the middle reel M52, and the range of symbol numbers 5 to 10 of the left reel M51 are stopped at the operation timing located at the bottom of each reel. By operating the button, "White Seven" is stopped and displayed on the lower row of the right reel M53, middle reel M52, and left reel M51, and it is configured so that the white sevens appear to be aligned on the lower row from the player's point of view. There is. In addition, in the game that won the re-game-B and won the AT addition lottery, the AT addition lottery was won by executing the effect (details will be described later) instructing to aim at "White Seven" by pushing backward. It is configured to notify the player to that effect. The "forward push black 7 set replay" corresponding to the winning number 3 is a condition device related to the replay in which the replay combination in which the RT state does not shift is stopped and displayed regardless of the order in which the stop buttons are pressed. Stop the reels in the order of left reel M51 → middle reel M52 → right reel M53), the range of symbol numbers 13 to 19 of the left reel M51, the range of symbol numbers 14 to 18 of the middle reel M52, and the right reel. By operating the stop button at the operation timing when the range of symbol numbers 13 to 17 of M53 is located at the bottom of each reel, "Black Seven" is placed at the bottom of the left reel M51, middle reel M52, and right reel M53. Is stopped and displayed, and it is configured so that the black sevens appear to be aligned in the lower row when viewed from the player. In addition, in the game that won the re-game-C and won the AT addition lottery, the AT addition lottery was won by executing the effect (details will be described later) instructing to aim for "Black Seven" by pushing forward. It is configured to notify the player to that effect.

In addition, the "RT maintenance RP1 ** (3 choices)" corresponding to the winning number 4 determines whether the first stop reel is the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, or the right reel M53 (operate any of the stop buttons). It is a condition device in which the re-game combination displayed as stopped may differ depending on (), and when the first stop reel is the left reel M51, the RT state does not shift to re-game 01, re-game 02, or re-game 03. Is stopped and displayed, and when the first stop reel is set to the middle reel M52 or the right reel M53, the replay 04 in which the RT state can shift from "RT1" to "RT0" is stopped and displayed. In addition, the "RT maintenance RP * 1 * (3 choices)" corresponding to the winning number 5 determines whether the first stop reel is the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, or the right reel M53 (operate any stop button). It is a condition device in which the re-game combination displayed as stopped may differ depending on whether or not the reel is stopped. When the stop reel is the left reel M51 or the right reel M53, the replay 04 in which the RT state can shift from "RT1" to "RT0" is stopped and displayed. In addition, "RT maintenance RP ** 1 (3 choices)" corresponding to winning number 6 determines whether the first stop reel is the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, or the right reel M53 (operate any stop button). It is a condition device in which the re-game combination displayed as stopped may differ depending on whether or not the reel is stopped. Then, when the first stop reel is the left reel M51 or the middle reel M52, the replay 04 in which the RT state can shift from "RT1" to "RT0" is stopped and displayed.

Further, the "push order bell 123" to "push order bell 321" corresponding to the winning numbers 7 to 12 are conditional devices in which the winning small winning combination may differ depending on which of the six reel stop orders is selected. For example, "left reel M51: 1, middle reel M52: 2, right reel M53: 3", and in the case of "123", stop in the push order of "left reel M51 → middle reel M52 → right reel M53". For example, in the case of "winning A-1" (winning number 7), stopping in the order of "123" = "left → middle → right" (correctly answering in the order of pressing) is the maximum number of winnings. The symbol combination that becomes "winning 01" that can acquire 11 game medals will be stopped and displayed. In addition, "123" and the like of "push order bell 123" indicate the push order (reel stop order) in which the maximum number of winning sheets in the winning number can be obtained. In addition, when the reels are stopped in a pushing order other than the pushing order in which the maximum number of winning sheets can be obtained, that is, if the correct answer cannot be obtained in the pushing order, one reel is paid out. Then, in the state related to AT such as "AT in progress", the push order of the re-game combination and the push order of the bell are navigated (the push order that gives the highest profit is displayed on the push order display device D270), and the "normal game state" is displayed. It is possible to create a plurality of gaming states in which the profit margins of the players are different so that the push order is not navigated to the AT-related states such as. The state related to AT will be described later.

In addition, the "common bell" corresponding to the winning number 13 can obtain 11 game medals, which is the maximum number of medals, regardless of which of the winning 04 to the winning 07 is stopped, that is, the maximum profit is obtained regardless of the pushing order. It is a conditional device that can be acquired, and is sometimes called a bell regardless of the push order. Further, the "watermelon A" corresponding to the winning number 15 is configured so that three watermelons (either watermelon A or watermelon B) can be easily aligned on the parallel line. For example, the 60th prize in FIG. 9 is won. In No. 14, three watermelons A are aligned in the middle of each reel. Further, the "watermelon B" corresponding to the winning number 16 is configured so that three watermelons (either watermelon A or watermelon B) can be easily aligned on the diagonal line. For example, the prize number 66 in FIG. 9 is won. In No. 16, three watermelons are arranged diagonally downward to the right, such as watermelon B on the upper stage of the left reel M51, watermelon B on the middle stage of the middle reel M52, and watermelon A on the lower stage of the right reel M53. In addition, the "BB medium and weak rare small role (diagonal bell alignment)" corresponding to the winning number 17 is a condition device in which three bells can be aligned on the effective line, and details will be described later, but the winning is done during the BB. It is a condition device in which the AT addition lottery is executed by doing so. Further, the "BB medium-strong rare small role (V-shaped bell alignment)" corresponding to the winning number 18 is a condition device in which the bell can be stopped and displayed on the left reel M51 upper stage, the middle reel M52 middle stage, and the right reel M53 upper stage. Although the details will be described later, it is a conditional device in which the AT addition lottery is executed by winning during the BB.

Next, in the item of "bonus winning information", numerical values from 0 to 3 are assigned to each winning number. In the present embodiment, the winning number that does not include the bonus (BB role) has the bonus winning information set to 0, and the winning number that includes the bonus (BB role) is the winning number (19) that includes one type BB-A. Bonus winning information of 1, 1 type BB-B included winning number (20-23) bonus winning information 2, 1 type BB-C included winning number (24-27) bonus winning information 3 It is said. By storing the bonus winning information in the main control board M, it is possible to store information relating to which BB is established and which BB combination is won. The details of the bonus winning information will be described later.

Next, in the item of "winning / replay winning information", numerical values from 0 to 18 are assigned to each winning number. In the present embodiment, the winning numbers (winning numbers 0 corresponding to the loss and winning numbers 19/20/24 corresponding to the bonus) that do not include the re-game winning combination and the small winning combination are set to 0 for the winning / re-gaming winning information. , 1-18 winning / re-game winning information is distributed to each condition device for the winning number including the re-game combination or the small combination. By storing the winning / re-game winning information in the main control board M, it is possible to store the information relating to which re-game combination or small combination is won. The details of the winning / replay winning information will be described later.

Next, in the item of "directing group number", numerical values from 0 to 11 are assigned to each winning number. By transmitting the effect group number from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side, the effect to be executed by the sub control board S side can be determined. The details of the production group number will be described later.

Next, in the item of "ball output group number", numerical values from 0 to 13 are assigned to each winning number. The main control board M stores the payout group number, and the stored payout group number is used when executing a lottery related to AT (for example, AT lottery, AT addition lottery) to execute a lottery process related to AT. It is possible to reduce the program and data capacity for this. Even if the condition device in which the payout group number is 0 is won, the AT lottery and the AT addition lottery are not executed. On the other hand, when the conditional device whose payout group number is not 0 is won, the AT lottery or the AT addition lottery can be executed. The details of the payout group number will be described later. Further, even when the condition device in which the payout group number is 0 is won, the AT lottery or the AT addition lottery may be executed, and in such a configuration, the payout group number is set. When the condition device to be 0 is won and the AT lottery or the AT addition lottery is executed, it is preferable to configure the lottery result so that the lottery result is always lost (non-winning).

Next, FIG. 11 shows a lottery probability in which the winning numbers (also referred to as conditional device numbers and winning combinations) and bonuses (also referred to as BB and BB combinations) relating to the small winning combination and the replaying combination in the present embodiment are determined by the winning combination lottery means. It is a list showing (also called a winning rate). In the figure, the winning rate of the winning number is shown.

First, the lottery probabilities in "RT0", "RT1", and "RT2" when the BB is not operating will be described in detail. In the present embodiment, the appearance rate (lottery probability) of the winning combination (particularly, the re-game combination) can be different depending on the RT state, and the "re-game combination" (the total appearance of all the re-game combinations) appears. The rate) is higher in the case of "RT1" than in other RT states. In addition, "re-game 04" (a so-called fall re-game combination, "RT1", and a symbol corresponding to the re-game combination in a situation where the bonus is not won, which can be stopped and displayed at winning numbers 4 to 6. When the combination is stopped and displayed, it will shift to "RT0" thereafter) is mainly won in "RT1", and almost never appears in "RT0". In "RT2", "re-game 04" that can be stopped and displayed at winning numbers 4 to 6 may appear, but even if "re-game 04" is stopped and displayed, the RT state does not shift. When "re-game 04" is stopped and displayed in "RT1", it shifts to "RT0", that is, it is an effect of notifying that the RT state has fallen (for example, the effect display device S40). (Displayed as "Sorry") is executed, and when "Re-game 04" is stopped and displayed in "RT0", the fall effect may not be executed. With such a configuration, it is possible to recognize that the player has won the BB because the fall effect was not executed even though the "re-game 04" was stopped and displayed. You can improve your sex. In addition, in such a configuration, the sound effect output by the stop display of "re-game 04" and the re-game combination other than "re-game 04" (for example, "re-game" in which the RT state does not shift). The sound effect output when "01") is stopped and displayed may be different from the sound effect, and the player recognizes that "re-game 04" is stopped and displayed by such a configuration. It can be easily configured. In addition, there are cases related to AT in which push order navigation does not occur (for example, "normal gaming state" and may be referred to as non-AT gaming state) and states related to AT in which push order navigation can occur (for example, "". It may stay in "RT1" in both cases of "AT in progress" and sometimes referred to as AT gaming state). At this time, when a winning number that may shift (fall) from "RT1" to "RT0" is won, a special sound effect indicating that the RT state may fall in the non-AT game state is played. It may be configured not to output based on the operation of the start lever D50. As a result, it is possible to shift the game state without making the player realize that there is a possibility of falling to "RT0" in the non-AT game state. On the other hand, in the AT game state, a special sound effect indicating that the RT state may fall is output based on the operation of the start lever (and the re-game combination in which the RT state does not fall is stopped and displayed. It may be configured to notify the forward navigation). As a result, the player can operate the stop button D40 after the special sound effect is notified, being careful not to let the RT state fall. In addition, "re-game 05" that can be stopped and displayed at winning number 2 or 3 (re-game role that can notify that the lottery has been won by adding AT when stopped and displayed in the AT state) is mainly "RT1". It appears in, and almost never appears in other RT states. It should be noted that the transition of the state related to the RT state accompanying the stop display of the symbol combination that serves as the replaying combination will be described later. Further, as will be described later, in the present embodiment, the push order navigation for notifying the player of the reel stop order, which is most advantageous to the player, can be executed by the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40. .. There is no problem even if the lottery probability is changed as appropriate. Further, in the present embodiment, the bonus is configured so that it can overlap with the small winning combination, and overlaps with a part of watermelon A, watermelon B, and cherry. Specifically, the winning numbers 21 to 23 and the winning numbers 25 to 27 are conditional devices in which the bonus and the small winning combination overlap.

Further, in the situation of "RT2", since the BB has been won and the BB is not in operation, the BB roles of the winning numbers 20 and 24 (single roles that do not overlap with the small role). If a BB role is won, which may be referred to as a single BB role or a single BB), the new winning of the BB role is invalid, and only the winning of the small role is valid. Specifically, for example, in the case of "RT2" and winning (carrying over) the 1st class BB-A, the winning number 24 "1st class BB-C" is won. , Class 1 BB-C related to the winning number 24 becomes invalid. That is, the situation is the same as when the winning number 0 "missing" is won. In addition, the carry-over type 1 BB-A will continue to be in the winning state. Further, in the situation of "RT2", since the BB has been won and the BB is inactive, the small winning combination of the winning numbers 21 to 23 and the winning numbers 25 to 27 and the BB role are If the overlapping conditional devices are won, the new winning of the BB winning combination is invalid, and only the winning of the small winning combination is valid. Specifically, for example, in the situation where the player is "RT2" and has won (carried over) the 1st class BB-A, he / she won the "1st class BB-B + winning-C" winning number 21. In that case, the type 1 BB-B related to the winning number 21 becomes invalid, and only the winning-C becomes valid. That is, the situation is the same as when the winning number 14 "winning-C" is won. In addition, the carry-over type 1 BB-A will continue to be in the winning state. It should be noted that the overlap with the bonus is not limited to the small role, and may overlap with a part of the replay role. For example, a part of the re-game combination of winning numbers 4 to 6 may overlap with the bonus combination. In this way, by making the bonus overlap with the conditional device including the RT transition replay (replaying role in which the RT state can be transitioned), the bonus is also won when the conditional device including the RT transition replay is won. There is a possibility, and even if the RT transition replay is stopped and displayed, the bonus will not be denied, so it is possible to give the player expectations. In this configuration, the RT state is controlled so that the RT state does not shift even if the RT transition replay is stopped and displayed. As a result, the player should have shifted the RT state (shifted to the RT state where the replay probability is relatively low), but the replay probability is not low (frequently won the replay), etc. Therefore, it is possible to enhance the interest in the game, such as the possibility of winning the bonus.

Next, the lottery probability in "Type 1 BB-A, B, C" at the time of BB operation will be described in detail. In the present embodiment, while the BB is in operation, the winning number 13 "common bell", the winning number 17 "BB medium weak rare small role (diagonal bell alignment)", and the winning number 18 "BB medium strong rare small role" It is configured so that three small roles with "(V-shaped bell alignment)" can be won, and while the BB won in "AT in progress" is operating, "BB medium weak rare small role (diagonal bell alignment)" Alternatively, if the player wins the "BB medium-strong rare small role (V-shaped bell alignment)", the AT addition lottery is executed (details will be described later).

Further, in the upper part of the figure, the appearance rate of small wins when the set value is 1 is illustrated, and in the common bell (winning number 13), the appearance rate is uniform regardless of the RT state. As shown in the lower part of the figure, the appearance rate of the common bell is configured to differ depending on the set value (6 steps in this example). Specifically, the number in setting 1 is 3204, the number in setting 2 is 3404, the number in setting 3 is 3604, the number in setting 4 is 3904, the number in setting 5 is 4204, and the number in setting 6 is Is 4504, and the higher the set value, the higher the appearance rate. With this configuration, for example, when a player advances a game while measuring the number of appearances (winning times) of a common bell, the common bell is frequently won, thereby relating to the gaming machine being played. The game can be advanced with the expectation that the set value is a relatively high set value. Further, the higher the set value, the higher the expected value per game, and the higher the set value, the higher the ball output rate. The appearance rate of the common bell is configured to differ depending on the set value, but depending on the winning of the common bell, the AT lottery, the AT addition lottery, and the high-probability state transition lottery, which will be described later, are not executed. It is configured so as not to affect the transition lottery of the state related to (also referred to as the lottery related to AT).

The middle part of the figure is a list of expected values when there is push order navigation. In the figure, when the push order navigation is executed in a state where the push order navigation can be executed by the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 such as "AT in progress state", the reel is stopped according to the navigation. The average number of medals paid out per game (the average number of medals paid out by the winning small wins, also called the expected number of game media obtained in one game) and the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game ( It is the ratio of the number of medals to be paid out to the number of medals to be inserted when playing with a 3-card bet. The value will be negative and the number of medals will decrease). The average number of payouts per game is "total number of replays (total number of replays 1 to 6) x number of replays (3) + small wins (11). Sum of the number of placements (small combination appearance rate) of the combination (total number of placements for winning numbers 7 to 16) x number of payouts (11 sheets) in the small combination (11-card combination) / total number of all placements (65536) ) ”Can be calculated. Further, the expected value of increase / decrease in medals per game can be calculated as "average number of medals paid out per game / number of medals inserted per game (3 cards)". The number of medals inserted per game (the number of game media inserted when playing one game) is three, and if the average number of medals paid out per game is greater than 3, medals are expected to increase or decrease per game. The value is configured to be greater than 1. As shown in the figure, in the present embodiment, the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game of "RT1" is relatively large. The figures in the figure do not take into account the increase or decrease in medals due to bonuses. That is, when the game is advanced in the situation where the push order navigation occurs (it is also referred to as the case where the operation is performed in the optimum operation mode or the case where the operation is performed in the advantageous operation mode), the number of medals increases in "RT1". Although not shown in "RT0" and "RT2", the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game is less than 1 under the condition that the push order navigation does not occur, and the medal. Will decrease. In the present embodiment, even in "RT0" or "RT2", the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game is larger than 1 when there is push order navigation, but the expected value is not limited to 1, and "RT0" is not limited to this. Or "RT2", the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game when there is push order navigation may be smaller than 1. In addition, when the symbol combination to be the re-game combination is stopped and displayed, the number of bets (3) in the previous game is actually automatically bet, but in calculating the expected value of medal increase / decrease in this embodiment, medals are used. The calculation is based on the assumption that three medals will be paid out. In addition, one game may be referred to as one game.

Further, the average number of payouts per game in each RT state is 3.511291504 when the RT state is "RT0" and 4.737915039 when the RT state is "RT1", which is the RT state. In the case of "RT2", it is 3.67137146. Further, the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game in each RT state is 1.170430501 when the RT state is "RT0" and 1.579305013 when the RT state is "RT1", which is the RT state. Is 1.223790487 when is "RT2", and when there is push order navigation, the RT state is "RT1", which is the most advantageous RT state for the player. The numerical value is the value when the setting is 1. The winning numbers and bonus lottery probabilities for the small wins and replays are just examples. For example, the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game in "RT2" where BB is being established internally (when there is push order navigation). (Expected value of increase / decrease in medals) may be configured to be less than 1. With such a configuration, when push order navigation occurs and when it is "RT2" (when BB is being established internally), when the bonus is not aligned in the game where the bonus can be aligned. However, the number of medals held will gradually decrease, and in the situation where push order navigation occurs and when it is "RT2" (when BB is being established internally), it is intentional in a game where bonuses can be arranged. It is possible to prevent a strategy that increases the number of medals held by not arranging bonuses. Specifically, it is preferable to design so that the probability of losing in "RT2" is higher than the winning probability of all the small wins (winning-A1 to winning-I) won in "RT2". It is preferable to determine the winning probability of the re-game combination so that it is designed so that the winning probability of the re-game combination is high. It is preferable to design it so that it does not become too much). In "RT2" of this example, the winning probability of all the small wins is 18784/65536, the total winning probability of all the replays is 12501/65536, and the probability of losing is It is 34251/65536 (see FIG. 11), and it is designed so that the probability of losing is higher than the winning probability of all the small wins combined.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, in the present embodiment, the appearance rate of the first type BB-A is assigned to 40, which is the same number for all of the settings 1 to 6. Further, the appearance rate of the first type BB-C is assigned to 160, which is the same number for all of the settings 1 to 6. On the other hand, as for the appearance rate of type 1 BB-B, 160 is assigned to setting 1, 180 is assigned to setting 2, 200 is assigned to setting 3, and 160 is assigned to setting 4. 220 is assigned, 240 is assigned to setting 5, and 270 is assigned to setting 6. That is, the appearance rate of the first type BB-B differs depending on the set value. In this way, the 1st class BB-A and the 1st class BB-C are BBs with no setting difference (the 1st class BB-A and the 1st class BB-C may be referred to as a setting difference BB and a setting difference bonus). The type 1 BB-B functions as a BB with a setting difference (the type 1 BB-B may be referred to as a BB with a setting difference and a bonus with a setting difference). Moreover, the appearance rate of all of the 1st class BB-A, the 1st class BB-B and the 1st class BB-C is uniform regardless of the RT state (in "RT0" and "RT1"). The appearance rate of type 1 BB-A and type 1 BB-C (total) is the same regardless of the set value, but the appearance rate of type 1 BB-B (total) differs depending on the set value. The total appearance rate of Type 1 BB-B is the same even if the set value is different, but the appearance rate for each winning number may be configured to be different depending on the set value. Even when configured, Type 1 BB-B may be referred to as BB with a setting difference.

Next, with reference to the block diagram of FIG. 12, the electrical schematic configuration of the rotating drum type gaming machine P according to the present embodiment will be described.

The input number indicator light D210, start lamp D180, re-game lamp D290, insertable lamp D300, special game status display device D250, payout number display device (push order display device) D270 are credit number display device D200, advantageous section. A collection of display devices such as the display YH}, a door switch D80 for determining the opening / closing of the front door, canceling an error, and changing a set value, a game medal (or a game medal) judged to be incompatible after being inserted. , Other foreign matter) is connected to a blocker D100 or the like for refunding to the discharge port D240. Further, the door board D is connected to the main control board M described above so as to exchange data. Therefore, when the start lever D50, the stop button D40, the settlement button D60, etc. provided on the front door DU are operated, the signal related to the operation is supplied to the main control board M via the door board D. ing. Further, the signal that the insertion reception sensor D10s detects the passage of the game medal is also supplied to the main control board M via the door board D.

Further, a rotating cylinder motor K10 for rotating the reel M50, a rotating cylinder sensor K20 for detecting the rotation position of the reel M50, and the like are connected to the rotating cylinder substrate K. The reel M50 can be stopped at a determined stop position by driving the reel motor K10 while detecting the rotation position of the reel M50 by the reel sensor K20. There is. Further, in the rotating drum type gaming machine of the present embodiment, a so-called step motor (sometimes referred to as a stepping motor) is used for the rotating cylinder motor K10. In the step motor, 480 steps are set as the number of steps for the reel M50 to rotate once. Further, each reel (left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53) is set with a predetermined number (for example, 20) symbols having a substantially uniform size, and the number of steps corresponding to one symbol is set. Is set to 24 steps (= 480/20). There is no problem even if the number of steps and the number of symbols per reel lap are changed.

Further, the medal payout device H is connected to the main control board M via the relay board IN, and pays a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game medals based on the control signal from the main control board M. Perform the operation to put out. The medal payout device H is provided with a first payout sensor H10s and a second payout sensor H20s, and a disk H50, which determine whether or not the medals have been paid out normally and measure the number of game medals paid out. A hopper motor H80 for rotating is connected to the hopper motor H80.

These various control boards and the electric power consumed by the boards are supplied from the power supply board E (the board that controls the presence / absence of power supply by the power supply switch E10). In FIG. 12, a state in which electric power is supplied from the power supply board E is represented by a broken line arrow. As shown in the drawing, electric power is directly supplied from the power supply board E to the main control board M and the sub control board S, and various boards (door board D, rotating cylinder board K, relay board IN) are supplied with electric power. Power is supplied via the main control board M. A predetermined amount (for example, 100 V) of AC voltage is supplied to the power supply board E, and after converting this power into a DC voltage of a specified voltage, the power supply board E is supplied to each control board and board.

Further, the main control board M has a setting key switch M20 used for executing the setting change device control process described later (for changing the setting), and a setting / reset capable of changing the setting value and canceling an error. Button M30, is connected. Further, the main control board M is a state related to a reel control means for controlling the rotation and stopping of the reels M50 (left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53) and AT which is advantageous for the player. AT lottery means to execute AT transition lottery to shift to, and AT addition lottery to increase the number of remaining AT games (or the counter value of AT counter M60), which is the number of games that can stay in the "AT in progress state". It has an AT addition lottery means to be executed.

Next, FIGS. 13 to 36 are flowcharts showing a general flow of processing performed by the main control board M in the present embodiment.

The flowchart is mainly composed of terminals (shown in rounded rectangles) indicating processing steps (shown in rectangles), judgments (shown in diamonds), flow lines (arrows), start / end / return, etc. ing. Further, when the details of the processing steps are illustrated by another flowchart, the one that refers to the other flowchart is illustrated as a subroutine (shown by a rectangle in which the left and right lines are double lines). .. Here, at the development stage of a gaming machine, a gaming machine having different specifications is also developed at the same time, but in this example, a subroutine (which is executed by a gaming machine having different specifications) is executed in the processing on the main side. Subroutines that are not normally used) are not left behind, and processing related to unused subroutines that are not normally executed is prevented from being executed due to noise or fraudulent activity.

First, FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing a flow of processing that is executed for the first time on the CPUC100 of the main control board M after the power of the rotating drum type gaming machine P is turned on (or at the time of system reset or user reset). .. First, in step 1000, the power of the rotating drum type game machine P is turned on, and then in step 1002, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the initial setting of the timer interrupt (here, the timer interrupt is started). Instead, it only sets the type of timer interrupt, and in the subsequent processing, when the timer interrupt is started, the flowchart related to the timer interrupt processing described later is periodically executed). Next, in step 1004, the CPUC 100 of the main control board M executes serial communication settings (speed, data length, data transmission method setting) and the like as function settings of the main control chip C. Next, in step 1006, the CPUC100 of the main control board M calculates the checksum from the start address of the RAM area to the address immediately before the checksum area. Next, in step 1008, the CPUC100 of the main control board M checks the RAM area (for example, the power is turned off and the power is turned off and restored based on the calculated checksum and the checksum data held in the checksum area. (Checks whether the data stored in the built-in RAMC 120 is correctly held) and generates power-off / recovery data. Next, in step 1010, the CPUC100 of the main control board M confirms the switch state of the setting key switch M20. Next, in step 1014, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the setting key switch M20 is off.

In the case of Yes in step 1014, in step 1016, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on / off the power off processing flag in the RAM (turns on in step 1904) and the checksum state of all the RAMs (in step 1006). (Check result of) is referred to, and it is determined whether or not the power supply cutoff / recovery data in the RAM is normal. In the case of Yes in step 1016, in step 1020, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes initialization of the RAM area within the determined initialization range. Next, in step 1022, the CPUC100 of the main control board M returns the stack pointer based on the data related to the stack pointer saved in the process when the power is turned off (step 1902). Next, in step 1036, the CPUC100 of the main control board M refers to the inside of the RAM area, and determines whether or not the data related to the set value in the RAM area is within the normal range (0 to 5 in this example). judge. In the case of Yes in step 1036, in step 1038, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes reading of the input port. Next, in step 1040, the CPUC100 of the main control board M starts the timer interrupt set in step 1002. Next, in step 1042, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the power-off processing completed flag, and returns to the power-off processing according to the returned stack pointer.

If No in step 1016, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the backup error display (for example, sets the error number in the register area) in step 1024. Next, in step 1300, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a non-recoverable error process described later.

If No in step 1036, in step 1046, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a set value error display (for example, it will be displayed on the payout number display device D270) (for example, in the register area). Set to). Next, in step 1300, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a non-recoverable error process described later.

If No in step 1014, in step 1028, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on / off the power off processing flag in the RAM (turns on in step 1904) and the checksum state of all RAMs (step 1904). (Check result in 1006) is referred to, and it is determined whether or not the power supply cutoff / recovery data in the RAM is normal. In the case of Yes in step 1028, in step 1030, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines and sets the initialization range of the RAM to a predetermined range excluding the storage area for storing the set value (set value data) in the RAM ( For example, it is set in the register area), and the process proceeds to step 1034. The range not included in the RAM initialization range is not limited to the storage area that stores the set value (set value data), but the total number of games in the "advantageous section" and the total cumulative number of game sections (advantageous section +). As a result of calculating the number of games (normal section) and the stay ratio of the "advantageous section", etc. are also within the range not included in the RAM initialization range. With this configuration, the ratio of staying in the "advantageous section" in the game (advantageous section ratio) can be calculated and displayed. Further, the calculation process of the advantageous section ratio is configured to be calculated at the timing when the unit game ends. In addition, the advantageous section ratio is displayed when the power of the gaming machine is turned on (for example, it is displayed on a 4-digit 7-segment display). As a specific display mode, it is repeated at 5 second intervals in the order of "advantageous section ratio-> continuous character ratio per 6000 games-> character ratio per 6000 games-> cumulative continuous character ratio-> cumulative character ratio". Is displayed. The continuous bonus ratio is "the number of payouts when the RB is operating / the total number of payouts", and the bonus ratio is the "number of payouts when the RB, CB, or SB is operating". / Total number of payouts ". On the other hand, if No in step 1028, in step 1032, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the initialization range of the RAM to a specific range including the storage area for storing the set value (set value data) in the RAM. It is set (for example, set in the register area), and the process proceeds to step 1034. Next, in step 1034, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes initialization of the RAM area within the initialization range determined in step 1030 or step 1032. Next, in step 1100, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the setting change device control process described later.

Although not shown, it is preferable that the initial value (value at the start of processing) of the temporary storage area (RAM area, etc.) mounted on the main control board M is configured so as not to be a value at which the special game is executed. (To prevent the special game from being erroneously executed when the process of determining the execution of the special game is executed immediately after the start of the program processing due to noise or fraudulent activity). Further, although not shown, when a random number such as a winning random number is stored in the RAM area of the main control board M, a dedicated storage area is secured and the information related to the random number is stored in the byte. It is preferable to memorize only the information related to the random number (do not memorize other information such as various timer values) (when operating another data stored in the same 1 byte, due to noise or the like. To prevent the information related to random numbers from being rewritten).

Next, FIG. 14 is a flowchart of the setting change device control process according to the subroutine of step 1100 in FIG. 13, and is also referred to as a setting change mode. First, in step 1102, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the stack pointer (initializes at the start address of the process). Next, in step 1104, the CPUC100 of the main control board M activates a timer interrupt. Next, in step 1106, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the set value (set value data) in the RAM area is within the normal range (0 to 5 in this example). When the set value (set value data) is managed by 1 to 6, it is necessary to perform the initialization of the RAM and return it to "1" when the set value becomes "0". Therefore, in this example, by managing the normal range of the set value (set value data) as 0 to 5, the set value (set value data) is corrected after the RAM is initialized (step 1106 and). The processing of step 1108) can be eliminated, and the processing time can be shortened and the processing capacity can be reduced. In the case of Yes in step 1106, in step 1108, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a predetermined value (for example, 0 = the most disadvantageous value for the player) in the set value (set value data), and in step 1110. Transition. On the other hand, even if No in step 1106, the process proceeds to step 1110. Next, in step 1110, the CPUC100 of the main control board M indicates to the error display LED (for example, the payout number display device D270) that the setting change device is operating (for example, “88” for lighting all segments). Then, the set value is displayed on the setting display LED (not shown) (the display related to the set value is a numerical value obtained by adding 1 to the set value (set value data) held in the RAM), and step 1112. Move to. As described above, the payout number display device D270 is also used to notify the push order. Since it is configured in this way, for example, when a failure has occurred in a part of the 7-segment LED (there is a segment that cannot be turned on) and the push order is notified, incorrect information can be notified. could be. In order to prevent such a situation, by making the payout number display device D270 light up all 7 segments to "88" while the setting change device is operating, it is possible to confirm whether or not the 7 segments are out of order, which is not suitable for the player. It is possible to prevent giving profits. Further, as a configuration related to the display of the set value (set value data), the storage of the RAM for displaying the set value for storing the data obtained by adding 1 to the set value (set value data) in the storage area for storing the set value. It may be configured to have an area and display a set value with reference to the storage area. Although not shown, after executing the process of step 1110, a process for transmitting a command indicating that the setting change mode has been entered is executed on the sub-control board S side.

Next, in step 1112, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the setting / reset button M30 has been switched from off to on. In the case of Yes in step 1112, in step 1114, the CPUC100 of the main control board M adds 1 to the current set value (set value data) (when the added result set value (set value data) exceeds 5). The set value (set value data) becomes 0), and the process proceeds to step 1116. Even if No in step 1112, the process proceeds to step 1116. Next, in step 1116, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the start lever D50 has been switched from off to on. If No in step 1116, the process proceeds to step 1112, and the processes of steps 1112 to 1116 are looped. In the case of Yes in step 1116, in step 1118, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the setting key switch M20 has been switched from on to off. If No in step 1118, the process of step 1118 is looped. On the other hand, in the case of Yes in step 1118, in step 1120, the CPUC100 of the main control board M displays an error display LED (not shown) indicating that the operation of the setting change device has been completed, and displays the setting display LED (not shown). The display of the set value (set value data) is erased, and the process proceeds to the game progress control process of step 1200. Although not shown, after executing the process of step 1120, a process for transmitting a command indicating that the setting change mode is terminated is executed on the sub-control board S side.

Next, FIG. 15 is a flowchart of non-recoverable error processing according to the subroutine of step 1300 (and called in another flowchart) in FIG. First, in step 1302, the CPUC100 of the main control board M disables interrupts (after that, the flowchart related to the timer interrupt time processing described later is not executed). Next, in step 1304, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the output port address and the number of output ports. Next, in step 1306, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the output ports (in this example, 0 to 6, display outputs to various LEDs and drive outputs to various motors). Next, in step 1308, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the next port output address (by repeating this, the display output to the various LEDs and the drive output to the various motors are sequentially stopped). Next, in step 1310, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the output to each output port is completed. In the case of Yes in step 1310, in step 1312, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the set error display (some error has occurred when executing this process), and the process is concerned. Is repeated, and when the power supply voltage drops, a reset signal is input and the process ends. (That is, it goes into an infinite loop, so it does not accept any operation that prompts it to return). If No in step 1310, the process proceeds to step 1306. The processes of steps 1306 to 1310 are processes for clearing the output to the LED / motor (however, since the external output signal is not cleared, the hall computer side provides information on the error and the game progress status when the error occurs. It is possible to output to).

Next, FIG. 16 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (first sheet) according to the subroutine of step 1200 in FIG. First, in step 1202, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the stack pointer (initializes at the start address of the process). Next, in step 1203, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets data in the RAM area required for the game (for example, the maximum number of bets, valid lines for winning, etc.). In step 1203, the data for clearing the data used in the previous game {for example, the condition device number (winning number), the effect group number, the instruction information} (“0” for clearing the RAM address). The process of setting the data) in the RAM is also included. It should be noted that the condition device number, the effect group number, the instruction information, and the like may not be cleared, and the number selected when the next game is executed may be overwritten. Next, in step 1204, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the RT state (for example, “RT0” or the like) in the game (sets the RT state determined in step 1704 of FIG. 27). Next, in step 1205, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub side) related to the RT state set in step 1204. The process of setting the RT state may be executed in step 1704 of FIG. 27. Further, a command related to the RT state (command to the sub side) may be set in step 1704. Further, when the RT state is transmitted to the sub side, it is not necessary to always transmit the RT state, and the RT state may be transmitted to the sub side only when the game section is the “advantageous section”. Next, in step 1206, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a state related to AT in the game (for example, "AT in progress state", etc.) (step 1420 in FIG. 21, step 1429, step 1435 in FIG. 22). Set the state related to AT determined in step 1439, step 1443, step 1444-3 in FIG. 23, and step 1444-4). Next, in step 1207, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub side) related to the state related to the AT set in step 1206. Further, the process of setting the state related to AT may be executed in step 1416 and step 1428 in FIG. 21, step 1438 in FIG. 22, and step 1444-1 in FIG. 23. Further, when transmitting the state related to AT to the sub side, it is not necessary to always transmit, and the state related to AT may be transmitted to the sub side only when the game section is the “advantageous section”. Next, in step 1208, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a game section (for example, an “advantageous section”) in the game (the game section determined in steps 3510, 3516, and 3520 in FIG. 31). set). Next, in step 1208-1, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub side) related to the game section set in step 1208. Next, in step 1209, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal payout device H is full of game medals. Specifically, it is equipped with a medal auxiliary tank HS (details will be described later) for storing medals overflowing from the medal payout device H, and two full detection electrodes DE (details will be described later) that can enter the inside of the medal auxiliary tank HS. It is judged by the continuity / non-conduction of the current due to (when the current is conducted through the medal, it is judged to be full). If Yes in step 1209, the process proceeds to step 1218.

On the other hand, if No in step 1209, in step 1210, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on the medal full error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal full error flag area in the RAM area with a value corresponding to on. ). Next, in step 1212, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the display of the error number corresponding to the medal full error with the 7-segment LED (for example, the storage display LED or the acquired number LED). Next, in step 1214, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal full error has been cleared (for example, the current by the two full detection electrodes provided in the medal auxiliary tank HS is non-conducting and is set / set. Whether or not the reset button M30 is pressed) is determined. In the case of Yes in step 1214, in step 1216, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the medal full error flag (for example, updates the medal full error flag area in the RAM area with a value corresponding to off), and then steps. Move to 1218. On the other hand, if No in step 1214, the process proceeds to step 1212. Next, in step 1218, the CPUC100 of the main control board M permits the acceptance of medal insertion (the insertion operation is automatically executed in the next game of the replaying role), and the next process (step 1220). Process). Here, in step 1218, the blocker D100 is turned on (process for forming the medal flow path). Specifically, when the re-game combination is established in the previous game, the blocker D100 is turned on on the condition that the current number of stored cards (credits) is less than the predetermined value (50 cards in this example). Run. In other words, when the current storage number (credit) is a predetermined value, the blocker D100 is not turned on. On the other hand, when the re-game combination is not established in the previous game, the blocker D100 is uniformly turned on. With this configuration, even if the re-game combination is established, if the number of stored cards (credits) does not reach the predetermined value, the game medal can be inserted, such as "RT1". When staying in the RT state (for example, "RT1") where the winning probability of the re-game role is higher than that of the RT state, or when the re-game role is difficult to understand by appearance (re-game pretending to be a small role: Even when the bell-bell-bell or the symbol combination in which the cherry is stopped on the left reel is stopped on the invalid line, the player can play the game with good rhythm (without discomfort).

Next, FIG. 17 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (second sheet) according to the subroutine of step 1200 in FIG. First, in step 1220, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the game medal has not been bet or saved (credit does not exist). In the case of Yes in step 1220, in step 1221, the CPUC100 of the main control board M satisfies the set value display condition (for example, when the door switch D80 and the setting key switch M20 are all turned on, the condition is satisfied). Judge whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1221, in step 1222, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is set to the setting display LED (not shown, but may be the payout number display device D270, the credit number display device D200, and the input number indicator light D210). The value is displayed (the mode shifts to the setting confirmation mode), and the step 1221 proceeds on condition that the setting key switch M20 is turned off. When the transition condition of the setting change mode is satisfied, the process for sending a command indicating to start the setting change mode to the sub control board S side, and when the end condition of the setting change mode is satisfied, the setting change mode Is executing a process to send a command indicating that it will end. If No in step 1220 or 1221, in step 1224, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes management related to insertion and settlement of game medals. Next, in step 1225, the CPUC100 of the main control board M confirms the number of game medals that can be accepted. Next, in step 1226, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the blocker D100 is on. In the case of Yes in step 1226, in step 1227, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first insertion sensor D20s or the second insertion sensor D30s is on (in this embodiment, the insertion of medals is performed. It has two throw-in sensors for detection, and when the first throw-in sensor D20s or the second throw-in sensor D30s is turned on, it is determined that one game medal has been accepted). In the case of Yes in step 1227, in step 1230, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first closing sensor D20s and the second closing sensor D30s are off (the first closing sensor D20s or the second closing sensor D20s or the second closing sensor D30s). When the first throwing sensor D20s and the second throwing sensor D30s are turned off after the sensor D30s is turned on, it is determined that one received game medal has passed through the first throwing sensor D20s and the second throwing sensor D30s. ). In the case of Yes in step 1230, in step 1231, it is determined that the CPUC100 of the main control board M has accepted the insertion of one normal game medal. Although not shown, after step 1231, whether or not the CPUC100 of the main control board M has a maximum number of credits (50 in this example) and a maximum number of bets (3 in this example). If it is determined to be Yes, the blocker D100 is controlled to be off (a state in which the medal flow path is not formed). If No in step 1230, the process of step 1230 is repeated, and if No in step 1226 or 1227, the process proceeds to step 1232.

Next, in step 1232, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the settlement button D60 has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 1232, in step 1233, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not there is a remaining number of credits or a bet game medal. In the case of Yes in step 1233, in step 1234, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on the hopper drive flag (a flag in the RAM area, which is turned on when driving the hopper motor H80), and the game is played. Pay out one medal. Next, in step 1236, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is on (in the present embodiment, for detecting the payout of medals). It has two payout sensors, and when the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is turned on, it is determined that one game medal is paid out). If Yes in step 1236, the process proceeds to step 1247. Here, although not specified in the flowchart, if the previous game was a re-game, only the remaining number of credits will be subject to settlement.

On the other hand, if No in step 1236, in step 1241, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed since the hopper was driven (after the timing of the processing in step 1234). .. Specifically, did the situation of determining that the medal was not paid out continued for a predetermined time even though the hopper drive signal was transmitted to the hopper motor H80 (the hopper motor H80 is rotating)? Judge whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1241, in step 1242, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area with a value corresponding to on). Next, in step 1244, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a medal empty error display. Next, in step 1245, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal empty error has been cleared (for example, whether or not the setting / reset button M30 has been pressed). In the case of Yes in step 1245, in step 1246, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to off), and steps. Move to 1247. On the other hand, if No in step 1245, the process proceeds to step 1244.

Next, in step 1247, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are off (the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is turned on). When the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are turned off, it is determined that the payout operation of one game medal in which the payout operation has been performed is completed). In the case of Yes in step 1247, in step 1248, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the hopper drive flag and proceeds to step 1233. If No in step 1241 or 1247, the process proceeds to step 1236.

On the other hand, if No in step 1232 or step 1233, the start lever D50 is effective for the CPUC100 of the main control board M in step 1251 (for example, a predetermined number of game medals for starting the game have been inserted, etc.). ), And it is determined whether or not the start lever D50 has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 1251, in step 1253, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the set value in the RAM area is within the normal range (0 to 5 in this example). In the case of Yes in step 1253, in step 1254, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a process of acquiring a random number and turning off the blocker D100, and then proceeds to the next process (process of step 3600). On the other hand, if No in step 1253, in step 1256, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the set value error display (for example, sets the error number in the register area). Next, in step 1300, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes an unrecoverable error process. If No in step 1251, the process proceeds to step 1220.

Next, FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (third sheet) according to the subroutine of step 1200 in FIG. First, in step 3600, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the internal lottery execution process described later. Next, in step 1259, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to the AT is a state in which the AT can be added to the lottery. Here, in this example, the states related to the AT that can execute the AT addition lottery are "AT in progress state", "additional specialization state", "specialization precursor state", and "advantageous BB state". In the "advantageous BB internal medium game", the AT counter value may be larger than 0, but the AT addition lottery is not executed. This is to prevent the player from being advantageous for the player if the player does not dare to align the symbol combinations of the BB in the "advantageous BB internal medium game". In addition, it may be configured so that the AT addition lottery can be executed in the "advantageous BB internal middle game", and in such a configuration, the AT addition lottery is won in the "advantageous BB internal middle game". However, it may be configured to notify the fact that the AT addition lottery has been won at the timing when the BB ends, or the number of AT remaining games after the number of AT games has been added.

In the case of Yes in step 1259, in step 1500, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the execution process for adding the number of games, which will be described later, and proceeds to step 1400. On the other hand, even if No in step 1259, the process proceeds to step 1400. In this game number addition execution process, it is possible to execute a lottery using different lottery tables depending on the state related to AT, but the lottery probability does not differ depending on the set value (using the same lottery table). Execute a lottery) is preferable. Next, in step 1400, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the AT state transition control process described later. Next, in step 1450, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the conditional device number management process described later.

Here, the states related to AT in this example are listed and described in detail (also shown in the AT state transition diagram of FIG. 30). (1) The "low probability state" is a state in which the AT has not been won (the right to shift to the "AT in progress state" has not been acquired) and the bonus combination has not been won. Since the "low probability state" is a so-called "normal state", it may also be referred to as a "normal state". (2) The "normal BB internal medium game" is a state in which the BB combination is won in the "low probability state", the BB combination is not won, and the AT lottery is not won. (3) The "normal BB state" is when the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination is stopped and displayed in the situation where the BB combination is won in the "low probability state" and the AT lottery is not won. Alternatively, it is a state of being executed when the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination is stopped and displayed in the "normal BB internal medium game". (4) The "high probability state" is a state in which the AT lottery has not been won (the right to shift to the "AT in progress state" has not been acquired) and the bonus role has not been won. , It is a state in which it is easier to win an AT than the above-mentioned "low probability state". As will be described later, when the game newly shifts to the "high probability state", it is configured not to shift to the "low probability state" until the number of high-securing obstacle games has elapsed. (5) "AT in progress state" "" Is a state in which AT (push order navigation) is performed and the number of remaining AT games (AT counter value) is subtracted. Even if the AT counter value becomes 0, if the continuous lottery described later is won, the predetermined value is set in the AT counter and the "AT in progress state" continues (6) "Specialization precursor state". Is a state in which the right to shift to the "additional specialization state", which is a state in which the number of AT games is relatively easier to be added than in the "AT in progress state", has been acquired. (7) The "additional specialization state" is a state in which the number of AT games is relatively easier to be added than in the "AT in progress state". (8) "Advantageous BB internal medium game" means that the BB role is won in the "high probability state", "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state" or "additional specialization state", and the BB role is It is in a state of not winning a prize. (9) "Standby BB internal medium game" is a state in which the BB role is won in the "low probability state", the AT lottery is won by the BB role, and the BB role is not won. .. (10) The "advantageous BB state" is a combination of symbols corresponding to the BB role by winning the BB role in the "high probability state", "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state" or "additional specialization state". The BB combination is won and is executed when the stop display is displayed, or when the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination is stopped and displayed in the "advantageous BB internal medium game", or in the "low probability state". , The AT lottery was won by the BB combination, and the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination was stopped and displayed, or the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination was stopped and displayed in the "standby BB internal medium game". It is a state that is sometimes executed. (12) The "state for producing the resurrection possibility" is a state related to the AT that shifts when the AT counter value becomes 0 and the continuous lottery described later is not won. In the "resurrection possibility production state", the revival lottery described later is executed, and if the revival lottery is won, the state shifts to the "AT in progress state" (a predetermined value is set in the AT counter), and the revival lottery is not performed. If you win, you will be in a "low probability state".

Next, in step 1550, the CPUC100 of the main control board M starts the rotation of all reels, which will be described later, and proceeds to step 1261-1. Next, in step 1261-1, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is requested to create a pull-in point creation request (rotating left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53), and the stop order is determined. It is determined whether or not there is a problem (required as appropriate depending on the stop position of other reels). In the case of Yes in step 1261-1, in step 1262, the CPUC100 of the main control board M creates a pull-in point and proceeds to step 1263. On the other hand, even if No in step 1261-1, the process proceeds to step 1263. In this way, in the "BB internal reel game", in the game in which the push order bell was won, the stop buttons were not stopped in the correct push order of 11 payouts (for example, in the case of winning-A1). Even if the stop button is not stopped in the order of "left → middle → right" (when the reels are stopped in the order of pressing the wrong answer), 11 symbol combinations will be paid out by the reel stop control. It is configured to win a prize. Next, in step 1263, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a reel stop acceptance / rejection check. Next, in step 1264, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not any of the stop buttons (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 1264, in step 1265, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the stop position of the reel corresponding to the operated stop button (for example, the left reel M51 corresponds to the left stop button D41). .. On the other hand, even if No in step 1264, the process proceeds to step 1266. Next, in step 1266, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes all reel stop check processing. Next, in step 1267, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not all the reels (left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53) have stopped. In the case of Yes in step 1267, in step 1268, the CPUC100 of the main control board M compares the symbol stop position data in the RAM with the internal winning combination stoptable position data. Next, in step 1269, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the combination of the displayed symbols is normal (if it does not match the winning combination determined by the internal lottery, it is abnormal. Is determined to be). The determination of whether or not the combination of the displayed symbols in step 1269 is normal determines whether or not the reel stop control based on the operation of the stop button is normally completed, and the winning combination is won. In the game being played, when the operation of the stop button is executed in an operation mode in which the winning combination can win a prize, the reel position actually stopped is not normal (the winning is possible as determined by the internal lottery). Even if the winning combination is not displayed as a stop from the appearance of the player), if the reel stop control is normally executed by the processing inside the gaming machine, the game medal based on the winning combination of the winning combination will be awarded. The payout is configured to be performed. If Yes in step 1269, the process proceeds to step 1274. On the other hand, if No in step 1269, in step 1270, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the display determination error display (for example, sets it in the register area). Next, in step 1300, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes an unrecoverable error process. On the other hand, if No in step 1267, the process proceeds to step 1261-1.

Next, in step 1274, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a game medal payout process by winning a prize. Next, in step 1275, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not there has been a prize for paying out the game medal {the game medal obtained by the prize exceeds the maximum number of credits (50 in this example). If so, the game medal will be paid out}. In the case of Yes in step 1275, in step 1276, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on the hopper drive flag (the flag that is turned on when driving the hopper motor H80), and executes the payout of one game medal. .. Next, in step 1277, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is on (the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is on). Then, it is determined that one game medal is being paid out). If Yes in step 1277, the process proceeds to step 1286.

On the other hand, if No in step 1277, in step 1279, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed since the hopper was driven (after the timing of the processing in step 1276). .. In the case of Yes in step 1279, in step 1280, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to on). Next, in step 1281, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the medal empty error display with the 7-segment LED. Next, in step 1282, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal empty error has been cleared (for example, whether or not the setting / reset button M30 has been pressed). In the case of Yes in step 1282, in step 1283, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to off), and steps 1282. Move to 1286. On the other hand, if No in step 1282, the process proceeds to step 1281.

Next, in step 1286, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are off (the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is turned on). When the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are turned off, it is determined that the payout operation of one game medal in which the payout operation has been performed is completed). In the case of Yes in step 1286, in step 1288, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the hopper drive flag and proceeds to step 1290. If No in step 1279 or step 1286, the process proceeds to step 1277. Next, in step 1290, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the payout corresponding to the prize (the prize that became Yes in step 1275) is completed. If Yes in step 1290, the process proceeds to step 3400. If No in step 1286, the process proceeds to step 1277, if No in step 1275, the process proceeds to step 3400, and if No in step 1290, the process proceeds to step 1276.

Next, in step 3400, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the remaining game number management process, which will be described later. Next, in step 1700, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the RT state transition control process described later. Next, in step 1750, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the AT state start control process described later. Next, in step 3500, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the game section transition control process described later. Next, in step 1293, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a game end process (for example, clearing the number of bets, transition process of the game state, etc.), and shifts to the next process (process of step 1202).

Next, FIG. 19 is a flowchart of the internal lottery execution process according to the subroutine of step 3600 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 3602, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets an internal lottery table (a table used when executing the internal lottery in which the winning number and the number of places to be compared with the acquired random numbers are stored). Then, the process proceeds to step 3604. Next, in step 3604, the CPUC100 of the main control board M acquires the winning number related to the set internal lottery table address. It should be noted that the winning / replay winning information can be generated from the winning number. In addition, if the bonus and the small role are won in duplicate, or if the bonus and the replay role are won in duplicate, both the winning / replay winning information and the bonus winning information are obtained from the winning number. Winning information can be generated. The specific generation process will be described later. Next, in step 3606, the CPUC100 of the main control board M acquires the number of repetitions related to the set internal lottery table address. Here, the number of repetitions is the number of consecutive winning numbers having the same payout group number and the same set number for comparison with the acquired random number, and is stored in the ROM of the main control board M in advance. It is remembered. For example, the payout group number 2 includes nine winning numbers 4 to 12, and the same number is used for three consecutive winning numbers 4 to 6, which are push order replaying roles. Since the number of consecutive winning numbers 7 to 12, which is the push order bell role, is the same, the number of repetitions related to the push order replay combination is 3, and the push order bell is used. The number of repetitions related to the combination is 6. It should be noted that the lottery table used when the winning numbers 4 to 6 which are the push order replaying roles are acquired and the lottery table used when the winning numbers 7 to 12 which are the pushing order bell roles are acquired are as a single lottery table. It is configured. Next, in step 3608, the CPUC100 of the main control board M acquires the payout group number related to the set internal lottery table address, and proceeds to step 3610.

Next, in step 3610, the CPUC100 of the main control board M acquires the set value data. Next, in step 3612, the CPUC100 of the main control board M acquires the designated address data. Next, in step 3614, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the internal lottery has been won (whether or not the acquired random number exists in the internal lottery table searched this time). In the case of Yes in step 3614, since it is determined that the internal lottery has been won, the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1259) without executing the determination (lottery) for the subsequent internal lottery table address. On the other hand, if No in step 3614, the CPUC100 of the main control board M updates the number of repetitions in step 3616. Next, in step 3618, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not there is a remaining number of repetitions. In the case of Yes in step 3618, the process proceeds to step 3610, and the processes of steps 361 to 3618 are repeatedly executed until the remaining number of repetitions is exhausted or the internal lottery is won. If No in step 3618, the CPUC100 of the main control board M updates the internal lottery table address (updates to the address related to the next payout group number) in step 3620, and proceeds to step 3604 to move to step 3604. The subsequent processing is executed. The specific processing of the internal lottery will be described later.

Next, FIG. 20 is a flowchart of the game number addition execution process according to the subroutine of step 1500 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1502, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to AT is "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state", or "additional specialization state". In the case of Yes in step 1502, in step 1504, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the payout group number related to the game as an additional AT game number (in the "AT in progress state", the winning number capable of adding the remaining number of AT games). In this example, it is determined whether or not the payout group number (1, 3 in this example) is related to the re-game-B, the re-game-C, and the winning-D). If Yes in step 1504, the process proceeds to step 1514. Further, in the case of No in step 1502, in other words, when the state related to AT is the advantageous BB state, in step 1512, the CPUC100 of the main control board M has the payout group number related to the game added to the BB. In the "advantageous BB state", it is a winning number that can add the number of remaining AT games, and in this example, whether or not it is a payout group number (5, 6 in this example) related to winning-H, winning-I). To judge. If Yes in step 1512, the process proceeds to step 1514, and if No in step 1512, the process proceeds to step 1518. Further, in the case of No in step 1504, in step 1506, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to AT is the "additional specialization state". In the case of Yes in step 1506, in step 1508, the CPUC100 of the main control board M can add the number of remaining AT games to the specializing middle addition group number for the game. In the "AT in progress state", it is a winning number that does not add the number of remaining AT games, and in this example, it is a replay-A, replay-D1 to D3, and winning-A1 to A6). (In this example, it is determined whether or not it is 2, 13). If Yes in step 1508, the process proceeds to step 1514. If No in step 1506 or step 1508, the process proceeds to step 1518.

Next, in step 1514, the CPUC100 of the main control board M refers to the winning additional game number lottery table, and determines the number of AT additional games based on the payout group number related to the game (for example, in the margin). In the lottery table shown, it is determined whether or not the latched random number value falls within the range). Determining the number of AT-added games is also referred to as executing an AT-added lottery. Next, in step 1516, the CPUC100 of the main control board M adds the determined number of AT additional games to the counter value of the AT counter M60, and sets the AT counter value after the addition to the AT counter M60. Next, in step 1517, the CPUC100 of the main control board M receives a command related to the determined number of AT-added games (a command to the sub-control board S side, and the sub-control board S receives the command. It is possible to recognize whether or not the number of AT games has been added and how many games have been added), and the process proceeds to step 1518. In addition, the lottery related to AT (AT lottery, AT addition lottery) can be executed even in the case of the payout group numbers 7 to 11, which are the payout group numbers related to the winning numbers (winning numbers 19 to 27) including the bonus. ..

Here, the lottery table shown in the margin of the figure is an example of a lottery table for the number of additional games at the time of winning, and in the present embodiment, a part of the state related to the AT in which the push order navigation is executed (in this example, " If the additional winning combination is won at the time of winning in "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state", "additional specialization state", "advantageous BB state"), based on the payout group number related to the game, The number of AT additional games is determined by lottery from "0" to "300", and the determined value is added to the counter value of the AT counter M60. If "0" is determined, the number of remaining AT games will not increase (if "0" is determined, it may be referred to as non-winning in the AT additional lottery).

In addition, the average value (expected value) of the number of AT additional games when the additional combination is won at the time of winning is a value as shown in the figure, and as a specific calculation method, the winning combination is watermelon A. In the case, {number of games (600) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of games (100) x number of AT additional games (10) + number of games (300) x number of AT additional games (30) + number of games ( 24) × number of AT additional games (100)} / total number of placements (1024) = 12.1 (games).

Next, when the winning combination is re-game-B or re-game-C, {number of placements (500) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (200) x number of AT additional games (50) + Calculated as number of units (300) x number of AT additional games (100) + number of units (24) x number of AT additional games (300)} / total number of units (1024) = 46.1 (game). be able to.

Next, if the winning combination is re-game-A or re-game-D1 to D3, and winning-A1 to A6, {number of games (300) x number of AT additional games (10) + number of games (600) x It can be calculated as the number of AT additional games (30) + the number of placements (124) × the number of AT addition games (50)} / the total number of placements (1024) = 26.61 (games). In addition, when the winning combination is re-game-A or re-game-D1 to D3, and winning-A1 to A6, the number of AT games is added only when the state related to AT is "addition specialized state". It has become.

Next, if the winning combination is a BB medium-weak rare role, {number of placements (800) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (100) x number of AT addition games (10) + number of placements (100) ) × Number of AT additional games (30) + Number of placements (24) × Number of AT additional games (100)} / Total number of placements (1024) = 6.3 (games).

Next, if the winning combination is a BB medium-strong rare role, {number of placements (300) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (300) x number of AT addition games (30) + number of placements (400) ) × Number of AT additional games (50) + Number of placements (24) × Number of AT additional games (300)} / Total number of placements (1024) = 35.4 (Games).

In the present embodiment, when the AT addition lottery is executed, the average value of the AT addition games may differ depending on the type of winning combination, but the AT addition games number may differ depending on the set value. The average values are configured so that they do not differ. Here, when the AT addition lottery is configured to be executed based on the winning number, for example, when the winning number 7 and the winning number 8 execute the same processing as the AT addition lottery, the winning number is 7. It is necessary to execute the process of determining whether or not the number is 8, but the winning number 7 and the winning number 8 are configured to execute the AT addition lottery based on the payout group number as in the present embodiment. When the same process is executed as the AT additional lottery, the process related to the AT additional lottery of the winning number 7 and the winning number 8 should be executed only by determining whether the payout group number is 2. Will be possible.

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, next, in step 1518, the CPUC100 of the main control board M may determine by the winning number (or winning / replay winning information, the payout group number, etc.) related to the game. ) Is a winning number for re-game-B (reverse-push white 7 replay, which is a re-game in which White Seven can be aligned with the invalid line by stopping by reverse-push). In the case of Yes in step 1518, in step 1520, whether or not the CPUC100 of the main control board M has added the number of AT games by replay-B, in other words, the number of AT games added by winning the regame-B. It is determined whether or not it was 0. In the case of Yes in step 1520, in step 1522, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is an invalid line by a reverse push instruction command (a command to the sub control board S side and reverse push (“right → middle → left”). Will be executed to instruct the white sevens to be aligned), and the process proceeds to step 1526. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1520, in step 1524, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is a command to avoid the reverse push (a command to the sub control board S side, and is a command other than the reverse push (“right → middle → left”). The push order is instructed, and the effect of not aligning the white sevens on the invalid line) is set, and the process proceeds to step 1526. Even if No in step 1518, the process proceeds to step 1526. Next, in step 1526, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the winning number (or the winning / replay winning information, the payout group number, etc.) related to the game as the replay-C (or the payout group number, etc.). It is determined whether or not it is a replay (forward push black 7 replay) in which the black seven can be aligned with the invalid line by stopping by the forward push. In the case of Yes in step 1526, in step 1528, whether or not the CPUC100 of the main control board M has added the number of AT games by replay-C, in other words, the number of AT games added by winning the regame-C. It is determined whether or not it was 0. In the case of Yes in step 1528, in step 1530, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is an invalid line by a forward push instruction command (a command to the sub control board S side and forward push (“left → middle → right”). (The effect of instructing the black sevens to be aligned) is set in, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1400). On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1528, in step 1532, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is a command to avoid the forward push (a command to the sub control board S side, and is a command other than the forward push (“left → middle → right”). The push order is instructed, and the effect of not aligning the black sevens on the invalid line is set), and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1400). Even if No in step 1526, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1400). In the present embodiment, a reverse push instruction command, a reverse push avoidance command, a forward push instruction command, and a forward push avoidance command are transmitted to the sub control board S, and the sub control board S receives these commands to subordinate. It is configured so that the control board S side can execute the effect related to the push order navigation, but the present invention is not limited to this, and when the AT additional lottery is won, the fact that the AT additional lottery is won and the number of AT additional games are related. When a command (for example, a command related to the number of AT-added games related to the process of step 1517) is transmitted to the sub-control board S side and the sub-control board S side receives the command, the push order navigation is performed on the sub-control board S side. It may be configured to determine the execution timing and the effect mode of the effect related to. As an example, in a game in which the re-game-B is won and the sub-control board S side receives the command (a game in which the number of AT games is added), a production mode in which a reverse push is instructed is selected. It may be configured to be executed, or in the game in which the command is received on the sub-control board S side, the effect of instructing the reverse push is not executed, and the subsequent predetermined condition (for example, a specific replay combination (for example, replay)) is executed. In a game in which (game-B or C) has been won), an effect of instructing a push order in which 7 alignments are possible on an invalid line may be executed. Alternatively, in the game in which the re-game-B is won and the command is received on the sub-control board S side (a game in which the number of AT games is added), the effect of instructing the reverse push is not executed, and then (For example, after a predetermined number of games (a continuous production may be executed at the same time, in that case, the final game of the continuous production) is satisfied, the number of AT games is added to the production (displayed by the production display device S40). It is an effect that the display related to the number of remaining AT games is increased. For example, (displayed as "+ 30G") may be executed. In this example, the effect display device S40 also increases the number of remaining AT games. The display is configured to be able to be displayed, and the display and the number of remaining AT games stored on the main control board side may be the same or different. In a game in which B is a winning game and the command is received on the sub-control board S side (a game in which the number of AT games is added), the effect of instructing the reverse push is not executed, and the predetermined conditions thereafter are satisfied. As an example of executing the effect of adding the number of AT games in the game that has been played, when a special effect (for example, a predetermined continuous effect) that encourages the winning of the bonus is being executed on the sub-control board S side (inside the bonus). Then, since the winning probability of re-game-B is low (including 0%), if the push order in which 7 matches are possible is notified, the player will recognize that the bonus has not been won), etc. There is a case where the board S side is executing a special effect. In addition, the main control board M side wins the AT addition lottery, and the sub control board S side determines that the number of remaining AT games has been added. The information includes (1) the number of AT remaining games transmitted from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side after the lottery with the AT added. After that, the number of AT remaining games transmitted last time on the sub control board S side. Calculate the difference between the information about the game and the information about the number of remaining AT games transmitted this time, and grasp the number of AT additional games won in the AT additional lottery. (2) Obtained as a result of the AT additional game on the main control board M side. A command regarding the number of AT additional games is transmitted to the sub-control board S side. If the AT additional lottery is not won, a command relating to the fact that the AT additional lottery is not won is sent to the sub-control board S side. When the sub-control board S side receives the command, the sub-control board S side may be configured to determine the production mode of the effect related to the push order navigation. As an example, the replay-B may be used. It ’s a winning game Then, in the game in which the command is received on the sub-control board S side (the game in which the number of AT games is not added), the middle press (the middle stop button is operated as the first stop, and the push order avoids 7 sets). It may be configured to select and execute the effect mode for instructing. The lottery for adding AT was executed on the main control board M side, but the information on the sub control board S side determining that the number of remaining AT games was not added is as follows: (1) Information on the number of remaining AT games. After the AT addition lottery, transmission is performed from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side. After that, on the sub-control board S side, the difference between the information on the number of AT remaining games transmitted last time and the information on the number of AT remaining games transmitted this time is calculated, and the number of AT additional games won in the AT additional lottery is grasped. (If the value obtained by subtracting the information on the number of AT remaining games transmitted this time from the information on the number of AT remaining games transmitted last time is 1, it is judged that the AT addition lottery was not won), (2) Main control board As a result of the AT addition lottery on the M side, a command regarding the fact that the number of AT addition games is 0 is transmitted to the sub-control board S side.

Next, FIG. 21 is a flowchart (first sheet) of the AT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 1400 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1402, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to the AT is the state related to the AT capable of executing the AT lottery. In addition, in this embodiment, the state related to the AT that can execute the AT lottery is only the "high probability state", and by winning the BB in the "high probability state", the "advantageous BB internal medium game". After that, when the BB combination wins a prize, it shifts to the "advantageous BB state", and when the executed BB ends, it shifts to the "AT in progress state", and the AT counter shows the initial number of AT games. The value of 50 times will be set. Even if the BB is won in the "low probability state", it shifts to the "normal BB internal medium game" and then does not shift to the "AT in progress state". It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to this, and if the BB is won in the "normal game state", the AT lottery may be won with the BB combination as an opportunity. In such a configuration, if the BB is won in the "normal game state" and the AT lottery is won with the BB role as an opportunity, the game shifts to the "advantageous BB internal medium game", and then the BB is changed. By aligning them, it will shift to the "advantageous BB state". In addition, in the state where the BB is won in the "normal game state" and the BBs are not aligned, the game section may be set as the "advantageous section" or the "standby section". In the case of Yes in step 1402, in step 1404, in the CPUC100 of the main control board M, the condition device related to the game is an AT lottery combination (in this example, a type 1 BB-A or a first type BB-A or a first type BB combination with no setting difference). Species BB-C) is determined. In this embodiment, the winning numbers of the BB without setting difference (winning numbers 19 and 24) and the winning numbers of the BB without setting difference and the small winning combination (winning numbers 25, 26, 27) are used. Both are AT lottery roles. In the case of Yes in step 1404, in step 1406, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT after the next game to "advantageous BB internal middle game", and proceeds to step 1410. Further, even if No in step 1402 or 1404, the process proceeds to step 1410. In this embodiment, when the AT-related states are different, the AT winning rate (whether or not the AT can be won) related to the AT lottery is different, but when the AT-related states are the same. The AT winning rate related to the AT lottery is the same even if the set value is different (if the BB is won in the "high probability state", the AT is always won regardless of the set value = then " Transition to "AT in progress").

Next, in step 1410, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to the AT after the next game has been determined. In the case of Yes in step 1410, in step 1412, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is a “low probability state”. In the case of Yes in step 1412, in step 1414, the CPUC100 of the main control board M has a small condition device related to the game that can shift from a “low probability state” to a “high probability state” by winning a state promotion combination. It is a role, and in this example, it is determined whether or not it is a cherry). In the case of Yes in step 1414, in step 1416, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is elected with a predetermined probability (in this example, it is 1/2, and if it does not differ depending on the set value, there is no problem even if it is changed). Execute a high-probability state transition lottery. Next, in step 1418, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the executed high-probability state transition lottery has been won. In the case of Yes in step 1418, in step 1420, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT in the next game and thereafter to the “high probability state”, and proceeds to step 1430.

Further, if No in step 1412, in step 1424, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is a “high probability state”. In the case of Yes in step 1424, in step 1426, the CPUC100 of the main control board M has a counter value of 1 (highly secured failure final game, 10th game since the "high probability state" is reached. ) Is determined. In the case of Yes in step 1426, in step 1428, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the low probability transition condition is satisfied. Here, in the present embodiment, when the state related to AT is the "high probability state", the game section is the "advantageous section", and when the game section is the "advantageous section", the push order It is configured so that the "advantageous section" does not end unless the navigation is executed once or more, or the predetermined number of games (1500 games in this example) "advantageous section" continues. Even if you win the low-probability state transition lottery, if the low-probability transition condition is not satisfied because the push order navigation has not been executed more than once, the "high-probability state" will not end. ). If the BB combination is won during the "advantageous section" and the BB is executed, the "advantageous section" can be performed at any timing even if the push order navigation is not executed even once in the "advantageous section". It may be configured to be terminated. In the case of Yes in step 1428, in step 1429, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT in the next game and thereafter to the “low probability state”, and proceeds to step 1430. Here, the low-probability transition condition is satisfied by executing the push order navigation once. In addition, as a push order combination (a winning number in which the winning combination differs depending on the reel stop order and the profit margin of the player differs), a combination with a maximum payout number of 8 and a combination with a maximum payout number of 11 are provided. In this case, the low-probability transition condition may be that the push order navigation of the winning combination with a large maximum payout number of 11 is executed once. In addition, even if No in step 1410, step 1414, step 1418, step 1424, step 1426 or step 1428, the process proceeds to step 1430. As described above, in the present embodiment, when a new transition to the "high probability state" is made, 10 games, which are high-securing obstacle games, are set in the high-securing obstacle counter KHc, and until the counter value becomes 0. Is configured not to transition to a "low probability state". It should be noted that such a lottery method is just an example. For example, the low-probability state transition lottery is not executed for 10 games after the transition to the "high-probability state" (the stay in the "high-probability state" is guaranteed. ), After the lapse of the 10 games, a lottery for shifting from the "high probability state" to the "low probability state" may be executed with a predetermined probability (for example, 1/20) in each game. The AT lottery combination (low probability AT lottery combination, high probability AT lottery combination) and the state promotion combination have the same winning probability in all the set values.

Next, FIG. 22 is a flowchart (second sheet) of the AT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 1400 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1430, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is the “AT in progress state”. In the case of Yes in step 1430, in step 1431, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the counter value of the AT counter M60 is a predetermined value (4 in this example) or more. Here, in the present embodiment, when the state related to AT is "AT in progress state", the AT counter value is 4 or more, in other words, when the number of remaining AT games is 4 or more, Watermelon B With a 1/2 chance of winning the game, you can get the right to move to the "additional specialization state" and move to the "specialization precursor state", while the state related to AT is "AT in progress state". , AT counter value is 3 or less, in other words, when the number of AT remaining games is 3 games or less, a lottery (specialization) to acquire the right to shift to the "additional specialization state" even if you win the watermelon B It is configured so that it does not execute the state transition lottery) and does not shift to the "specialization precursor state" and the "additional specialization state". The lottery is not limited to this, and even if the AT counter value is 3 or less, a lottery to win the watermelon B and acquire the right to shift to the "additional specialized state" (also known as the specialized state transition lottery). It may be configured to be able to execute (sometimes referred to as), and in a situation where the AT counter value is 3 or less, the watermelon B is elected and the right to shift to the "additional specialized state" is given. If the lottery to be won is won, it may be configured so that the next game that wins the lottery can be (shifted to) a "specialized precursor state" or an "additional specialized state", or the AT counter value. May be configured to be (or transition to) a "specialization precursor state" or an "additional specialization state" when becomes a predetermined value (for example, 1 or 0), or the game won in the lottery. After executing a predetermined number of games, it may be configured so that it can become (or shift to) a "specialization precursor state" or an "additional specialization state". In addition, when shifting to the "additional specialization state", it is not always necessary to go through the "specialization precursor state". For example, the configuration is such that the transition from the "AT in progress state" to the "additional specialization state" can be performed directly. You may. In the case of Yes in step 1431, in step 1432, the CPUC100 of the main control board M can execute a lottery in which the conditional device related to the game can execute a lottery to acquire the transition right to the specialization transition combination (“additional specialization state””. It is a role, and in this example, it is determined whether or not it is a watermelon B). In the case of Yes in step 1432, in step 1433, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a special state transition lottery that wins with a predetermined probability (1/2 in this example). Next, in step 1434, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the executed specialization state transition lottery has been won. In the case of Yes in step 1434, in step 1435, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT after the next game to the “specialization precursor state”, and proceeds to step 1444-1. On the other hand, if No in step 1431, in step 1436, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the counter value of the AT counter M60 is 1 (if the AT counter value is 1, the AT final game is reached). judge. In the case of Yes in step 1436, in step 1437, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a continuous lottery to win with a predetermined probability (2/3 in this example). Next, in step 1438, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the executed continuous lottery has been won. In the case of Yes in step 1438, in step 1439, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT after the next game to "AT in progress state", and shifts to step 1444-1 (AT state shiftable condition). The number of AT initial games (50 in this example) is set in the AT counter to satisfy the requirements. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1438, in step 1443, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to the AT after the next game to the “recoverable / non-recoverable effect state”, and proceeds to step 1444-1. In addition, even if No in step 1430, step 1432, step 1434 or step 1436, the process proceeds to step 1444-1. As described above, in the present embodiment, the continuous lottery is executed in the final AT game, and when the continuous lottery is won, the AT counter M60 is set to 50 games, which is the initial value, again. That is, when the addition of the number of AT games is not taken into consideration, the AT of 50 games per set has a playability of continuing to loop at 2/3. The execution timing of the continuous lottery is not limited to the final AT game. For example, after the initial value is set in the first game of AT (the first game newly in the "AT in progress" state or the AT counter M60). The first game) may be configured to perform a continuous lottery. With such a configuration, it has already been determined whether or not the next set (AT related to the winning of the continuous lottery) will be executed (whether or not the AT will continue) in the "AT in progress state". , The production during AT can be different depending on whether the continuous lottery is won or not. For example, when the continuous lottery is won, the counter value of the AT counter M60 It is possible to change the BGM (song is played, etc.) in a situation where the number is 1 or more (during the execution of AT), or to execute an effect in which it is definite that the player has won the continuous lottery.

Next, FIG. 23 is a flowchart (third sheet) of the AT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 1400 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1444-1, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is the state for effecting whether or not to restore. In the case of Yes in step 1444-1, in step 1444-2, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is set to the resurrection role (in the next game by winning the condition device related to the game in the "resurrection possibility production state"). It is determined whether or not it is a role that can shift to the "AT in progress state", in other words, a role that can pull back the AT). Here, in the present embodiment, the resurrection combination includes any of watermelon A, watermelon B, cherry, and a bonus combination (only the BB combination without setting difference, and does not include the BB combination with setting difference). When the condition device related to the game becomes a resurrection role, it is said that the resurrection lottery is won. In the case of Yes in step 1444-2, in step 1444-3, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT after the next game to "AT in progress state", and proceeds to step 1445. Here, the number of AT initial games (50 in this example) is set in the AT counter in order to satisfy the AT state transitionable condition. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1444-2, in step 1444-4, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT after the next game to the "low probability state", and proceeds to step 1445. Even if No in step 1441-1, the process proceeds to step 1445. As described above, in the present embodiment, even if the game is the final AT game and the continuous lottery is not won, the game shifts to the "recoverable / non-recoverable production state" and is revived in the "recoverable / non-recoverable production state". If the lottery can be won, it is configured to shift to the "AT in progress state" from the next game. In addition, although the "state for revival possibility production" is "advantageous section", the lottery related to AT (AT addition lottery, continuous lottery, etc.) in the "AT in progress state" is not executed, and the revival lottery can be executed. It is configured, and the execution mode of the lottery regarding AT is different between the "AT in-progress state" and the "revival possibility production state".

Next, in step 1445, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to the AT after the next game has been determined. In the case of Yes in step 1445, in step 1446, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the transition condition of the state related to AT is satisfied (for example, as shown in FIG. 30, “specialization precursor”. Satisfied when 10 games, which is the number of precursor games, are exhausted in "State"). In the case of Yes in step 1446, in step 1447, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the state related to AT in the next game and thereafter, and proceeds to step 1448 (for example, as shown in FIG. 30, "specialization". If the number of precursor games is exhausted in "precursor state", it will be decided as "additional specialization state"). In addition, even if No in step 1445 or step 1446, the process proceeds to step 1448. Next, in step 1448, the CPUC100 of the main control board M guarantees a high secured fault counter value command (in this example, it is a command to the sub side, and the current high secured fault counter value, in other words, a high probability state is guaranteed. The command related to the remaining number of games that has been played) is set, and the process proceeds to step 1449-1. Next, in step 1449-1, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to the AT after the next game is determined to be "advantageous BB internal medium game". In the case of Yes in step 1449-1, in step 1449-2, the CPUC100 of the main control board M clears the counter value of the high security failure counter KHc to zero, and performs the next process (
The process proceeds to step 1450). Even if No in step 1499-1, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1450).

In this embodiment, the AT winning rate is configured to differ depending on the lottery state, and if the BB combination (BB combination with no setting difference) is won in the "low probability state", the AT transition lottery is won. No (after that, it does not shift to the "AT in progress state") On the other hand, if the BB role (BB role with no setting difference) is won in the "high probability state", the AT transition lottery is won (then the "AT in progress state" is set. However, it is not limited to this, and the condition device A, which is a predetermined condition device, is used as an AT lottery, and the states related to the AT, which is the "advantageous section", are "high probability state A" and "high probability". When configured to have a "state B", if the condition device A is won in the "high probability state A", the AT transition lottery is won at 1/10, and the condition device is won in the "high probability state B". If A is won, the AT transition lottery may be won by 1/2. If the AT transition lottery is won, the state shifts to the "AT preparation state", which is the preparation state until the transition to the "AT in progress state" as the state related to AT, and then a predetermined end condition (for example, "AT preparation"). It may be configured to shift to the "AT in progress state" when 10 games have passed since the shift to the "state".

Next, FIG. 24 is a flowchart of the condition device number management process according to the subroutine of step 1450 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1451, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current game section is an “advantageous section”. In the case of Yes in step 1451, in step 1452, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is a command related to winning / replay winning information (a command on the sub-control board S side, for example, winning / replay winning related to the game). Set the command related to information). Next, in step 1454, in the CPUC100 of the main control board M, the condition device related to the game is a combination with a push order (a condition device in which the winning combination differs depending on the push order, for example, winning-A1 or the like). Judge whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1454, in step 1458, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines an instruction number (also referred to as a push order number) in the game based on the winning / replay winning information related to the game, and gives an instruction. It is stored in the RAM address for storing the number (an address different from the RAM address for displaying the push order navigation). The instruction number is information related to the pressing order, and in this example, the main control board M is determined and transmitted to the sub control board S (details will be described later). Further, the sub-control board S can display the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 by receiving the instruction number. It should be noted that the instruction number is determined even when the push order navigation is not executed (although not shown, the instruction number becomes the initial value based on clearing the instruction number). When executing the push order guessing game, a predetermined instruction number (for example, AX) dedicated to the push order guessing game may be determined. Next, in step 1460, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the push order navigation display on the push order display device D270 based on the instruction number related to the game (display of the push order navigation display on the main control board side). See FIG. 34 for an image). Next, in step 1466, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub side) related to the instruction number determined in step 1458 (for example, sets it in the register area), and proceeds to step 1472. (See FIG. 34 for a display image of the push order navigation display on the sub-control board side). In this example, displaying the reel stop order, which is the most profitable for the player, on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 is referred to as a push order navigation, a push order navigation display, and the like. ing. In this embodiment, the push order navigation is displayed based on the instruction number. For example, the push order of "left → middle → right" is displayed by the push order display device D270 as "= 1". In both the push order bell and the push order replay, it is configured to be displayed as "= 1". In addition, the present invention is not limited to this, and in the case of displaying the push order navigation of "left → middle → right" on the push order display device D270 in the game related to the push order bell, and in the game related to the push order replay game, " The display mode may be different from the case where the push order navigation of "left → middle → right" is displayed on the push order display device D270. That is, the number of types of the push order navigation display mode displayed on the push order display device D270 may be the same as the number of types of winning / replay winning information.

If No in step 1451 or 1454, in step 1468, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes mask processing on the winning / replay winning information of the game, and the masked information is used as the predetermined address of the RAM. Remember in. Here, when the winning / replay winning information related to the game is transmitted to the sub-control board S side, if the winning / replay winning information is recognized due to an illegal act, the profit related to the game is high. The push order (reel stop order) will be recognized. Therefore, in this example, the sub-control board S is executed after performing mask processing {processing for keeping the winning / replay winning information (particularly information related to the push order) confidential} on the winning / replay winning information related to the game. By configuring it to send to, it is configured so that the highly profitable push order cannot be recognized. As the mask processing method in the present embodiment, a plurality of winning / replay winning information (winning / replay winning information having a similar role is preferable, and for example, the RT state shifts depending on the pushing order. A plurality of winning / re-gaming winning information that can be stopped and displayed as a symbol combination that serves as a re-gaming role is used as one production group number (for example, winning / re-gaming winning information 4 to 6 are designated as production group 4). The group number is configured to be transmitted to the sub control board S side. The method of mask processing is not limited to this, and for example, after the provided winning / replay winning information (0 to 18 in this example), a new winning / replay after mask processing is performed. It may be configured to provide winning information. Also, even in such a case, a plurality of winning / replay winning information among the existing winning / replay winning information such as the production group number is used as one winning / replay winning information for winning / replaying after mask processing. It is desirable to configure the game winning information to be provided (for example, the winning / re-gaming winning information 4 to 6 is the winning / re-gaming winning information 19 (newly provided winning) which is the winning / re-gaming winning information after mask processing.・ Re-game winning information), etc.). If it is determined that the game is to notify the operation information (push order navigation) based on the state related to AT on the main control board M, the winning / re-game winning information is transmitted to the sub-control board S side. In a game in which the operation information is not notified, the effect group number may be transmitted to the sub-control board S side. In this configuration, the command related to the instruction number may be transmitted to the sub-control board S side, or may be configured not to be transmitted.

Next, in step 1470, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub side) related to the effect group number after executing the mask processing (for example, sets it in the register area), and then steps. Move to 1472. Next, in step 1472, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub side) related to the bonus winning information (whether or not the bonus is won can be recognized by the sub side) (for example, the command to the sub side). It is set in the register area), and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1550). In the present embodiment, the winning / replay winning information and the bonus winning information are derived from the winning number, and the derivation method will be described later. In addition, as shown in the lower part of the figure, as a display example of the push order navigation, in the case of "AT in progress", (1) when the fall replay combination is included → the fall replay combination is not stopped and displayed. The order is navigating, (2) in the case of bells (1 card combination, 11 card combination) → the push order with the largest number of payouts is navigating, and so on. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the game section is the "advantageous section", the winning / re-game winning information (the type of winning combination and the most advantageous pushing order for the player) is displayed on the sub-control board S side. (A number that can specify) and an instruction number (a number that can specify the most advantageous push order for the player), while the sub-control board S It is configured so that the production group number (a number that can identify only the outline of the winning combination) can be transmitted to the side. That is, in the "advantageous section", the winning / replay winning information related to the game, including the winning / replay winning information in which the result of the game and the profit of the player differ depending on the pushing order, is used as it is on the sub-control board S side. On the other hand, in a game section that is not an "advantageous section", the winning / replay winning information related to the game is not transmitted, and the result of the game and the profit of the player differ depending on the pushing order. In the case of winning information, the effect group number in which the information related to the pressing order is concealed is transmitted to the sub-control board S side.

When the game section is not an "advantageous section", mask processing is executed when the winning / re-game winning information determined by the main control board M is transmitted to the sub-control board S to determine the effect group number. Then, the effect group number is transmitted to the sub-control board S. In addition, the production group number is the winning / replay winning information, and the winning / replay winning information related to the winning combination (for example, the replaying role including the falling replaying role, the push order bell, etc.). Are grouped and numbers are assigned. It is configured to execute mask processing {processing to keep the winning / replay winning information (especially information related to the push order) confidential} on the winning / replay winning information related to the game, and then transmit it to the sub-control board S. This prevents a situation in which the information related to the winning / replay winning information is recognized due to an illegal act, and the pushing order (reel stop order) that is highly profitable related to the game is recognized.

Next, FIG. 25 is a flowchart of the reel rotation start preparation process according to the subroutine of step 1550 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1552, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the timer value of the game interval minimum time timer M70 (subtraction timer) is 0. Here, the game interval minimum time timer M70 is a time (4.1 seconds in this example) that should be secured from a certain game start timing (reel rotation start timing) to the next game start timing (reel rotation start timing). It is a timer to measure. In the case of Yes in step 1552, in step 1554, the CPUC100 of the main control board M starts by newly setting the minimum time (4.1 seconds in this example) to the timer value of the game interval minimum time timer M70. On the other hand, if No in step 1552, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes an infinite loop process. Next, in step 1556, the CPUC100 of the main control board M clears the information related to the reel stop order and the information related to the push order related to the finished game. Next, in step 1558, the CPUC100 of the main control board M clears the information related to the reel stop related to the finished game and the pull-in point creation request. Next, in step 1560, the CPUC100 of the main control board M initializes the symbol stop position data related to the finished game. Next, in step 1562, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets an output request during reel rotation start standby related to the game. Next, in step 1564, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a reel control command related to the game, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 1260). In other words, by the processing of step 1562 and step 1564, a command for indicating that the reel starts rotating can be transmitted to the sub-control board S.

Next, FIG. 26 is a flowchart of the remaining game number management process according to the subroutine of step 3400 of FIG. 18 in this embodiment. First, in step 3402, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current game section is an “advantageous section”. Although the details will be described later, the "advantageous section" is one of the game sections, and the game situation which is advantageous for the player such as when the state related to AT is "AT in progress state". It is a game section that is easy to set in. In the case of Yes in step 3402, in step 3404, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is initially set to 1500, which is the subtraction counter and the maximum number of games that can stay in the "advantageous section". The counter value of (a counter that is set as a value and can be subtracted every game during the "advantageous interval") is subtracted by 1.

Next, in step 3408, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is the “AT in progress state”. In the case of Yes in step 3408, in step 3410, the CPUC100 of the main control board M subtracts 1 from the AT counter value. Next, in step 3412, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to the AT is a high probability state. In the case of Yes in step 3412, in step 3414, the CPUC100 of the main control board M subtracts 1 from the counter value of the high security failure counter KHc, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 1700). Even if No in step 3402, step 3408, or step 3412, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1700). As described above, in the present embodiment, when the state related to the AT that can be displayed by the push order navigation is the "AT in progress state", the AT counter value for each game is subtracted, but the "advantageous BB state" and "advantageous BB state" In the case of "advantageous BB internal medium game", "specialization precursor state" or "additional specialization state", the AT counter value is not subtracted even if the game is executed. That is, when the AT counter value remains (1 or more remains) and the state shifts from the "AT in progress state" to the "specialization precursor state", the "AT in progress state" is maintained while maintaining the AT counter value. It is configured so that it can transition (transition) from "state"-> "specialization precursor state"-> "additional specialization state". Even if the state related to AT is "AT in progress", it is possible not to subtract 1 from the AT counter value when the winning number including the bonus combination is determined in the game. At this time, for example, the AT counter value stored in the RAM of the main control board M is not subtracted, but the remaining number of AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 controlled by the sub control board S is displayed so as to be subtracted. You may control it. For example, when the game is executed and the bonus is won when the AT counter value is "30" and the number of remaining AT remaining games displayed on the effect display device S40 is "30", the AT counter value is "30". Is stored, or "30 + α", which is the value obtained by adding the value "α" obtained by the AT addition lottery related to the game, is stored, but is displayed on the effect display device S40 when the start lever D50 is operated. You may display "29" as the number of remaining AT games, or "29 + α" which is the sum of the value "α" obtained by the AT addition lottery (note that the "α" obtained by the addition lottery is , "Α" is set in a specific game after the game (a game that satisfies a predetermined condition at the start of the bonus game, during the bonus game, at the end of the bonus game, or after the end of the bonus game) without notifying the game. You may notify). Then, the number of remaining AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 is subtracted by 1 for each game even in the "advantageous BB internal medium game", and an effect suggesting bonus confirmation (for example, a bonus confirmation screen) is output. It can be configured so that the number of remaining AT games is subtracted for each game. With this configuration, it is possible to prevent the player from immediately grasping the bonus winning when the bonus is won in a state where the push order navigation such as "AT in progress" can be executed. That is, after the winning number including the bonus combination is determined, a continuous effect over a plurality of games that encourages whether or not the bonus is won can be executed by using the effect display device S40 or the like to enhance the interest of the game. The number of remaining AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 after the bonus game is completed is "30", or a value of "30" or more when notifying the result of winning and adding as a result of the AT addition lottery. Can be controlled to display. If the game is executed and the bonus is won when the AT counter value is "1" and the number of remaining AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 is "1", the game is displayed on the effect display device S40. The display related to the number of remaining AT games is "0", but while maintaining this state, continuous production over multiple games is executed to incite whether or not the bonus has been won, and the AT counter value is "1". , The winning number (or winning / re-game winning information, or ball output group number) in which the game can be executed and the AT addition lottery can be executed when the number of remaining AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 is "1". If is won and the AT addition lottery is not won, the number of AT games is "0" and the number of AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 is "0". Further, when the number of remaining AT games is small, the probability of executing the continuous effect may be set lower (including 0%) than when the number of remaining AT games is large.

Next, FIG. 27 is a flowchart of the RT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 1700 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1702, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the RT state transitionable condition is satisfied in the game. Here, in the present embodiment, the RT state transitionable conditions are the execution of RAM clear (RAM initialization), the stop display of the re-game (in this example, the stop display of the re-game 04), and the winning / starting of the BB. -It is configured to be satisfied at the end. In the case of Yes in step 1702, in step 1704, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the RT state can be shifted and the RT state after the next game based on the satisfied RT state transitionable condition (RT state transition in FIG. 28). (Refer to the figure), the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1750). Even if No in step 1702, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1750). In the present embodiment, the RT state transition control process is executed after all reels are stopped, but when shifting to "RT1", the shift timing may be shifted when the lever is turned on. The timing for shifting the RT state (storing the RT number in the RAM) can be appropriately determined.

Next, FIG. 28 is an RT state transition diagram in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, there are four RT states of "RT0" to "RT2" and "Type 1 BB-A, B, C", and the RT states are satisfied by satisfying the conditions shown by the arrows in the figure. Will be migrated. As a specific example of transition to the RT state, when the RT state is "RT1", RAM initialization is executed, or when the replay 04 is stopped and displayed, the transition to "RT0" is performed. The stop display of the re-game 04 is specifically when the left stop button is operated as the first stop when the "re-game-D1" is won in the situation where the RT state is "RT1". , Re-games 01 to 03 are stopped and displayed, and "RT1" is maintained as the RT state. On the other hand, if the "re-game-D1" is won in the situation where the RT state is "RT1" and the middle stop button or the right stop button is operated as the first stop, the re-game 04 is stopped and displayed. , The RT state shifts from "RT1" to "RT0".

In addition, when the RT state is "RT0" or "RT1", the BB combination is won and the BB combination is not won in the winning game (the condition device related to the first type BB-A, B, C operates. ) And the RT state shifts to "RT2". In addition, when the BB role is won in "RT2" (type 1 BB-A, B, C operates), it shifts to "type 1 BB-A, B, C". Further, when BB ends at "Type 1 BB-A, B, C" (operation of Type 1 BB-A, B, C ends), the process shifts to "RT1". If the state related to AT is "low probability state", the BB is won, and when the BB ends, the RT state shifts to "RT1", which is highly profitable for the player. Since the push order navigation does not occur in the state, when the "re-game-D1 to D3" is won, the wrong push order (the first stop is the left button, the middle button, and the right button). One of the three choices is the correct push order and the re-games other than the re-game 04 are stopped and displayed, and two of the three choices are the incorrect push order and the re-game 04 is stopped and displayed). By stopping the game 04, the replay game 04 is stopped and displayed, and the game shifts from "RT1" to "RT0". In addition, if the state related to AT is "high probability state", "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state" or "additional specialization state", the BB is won, and if the BB ends, the RT state is reached. Will shift to "RT1", which is highly profitable for the player, and the state related to AT is a state in which push-order navigation occurs, and even when "Re-game-D1 to D3" is won, re-game 04 Will navigate the correct push order that does not stop and display, so "RT1" can be maintained.

Next, FIG. 29 is a flowchart of the AT state start control process according to the subroutine of step 1750 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1752, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the AT state transitionable condition is satisfied in the game. The conditions for shifting to the AT state are, for example, (1) when the BB with no setting difference won in the "high probability state" is completed, (2) when the continuous lottery is won, and (3) the revival lottery is won. Satisfy if you do. In the case of Yes in step 1752, in step 1754, the CPUC100 of the main control board M newly shifts to the "AT precursor state", and the number of AT initial games (50 in this example, and "AT in progress" The number of games in which the subtraction is started after the transition to the “state”) is set in the AT counter M60, and the transition to step 1756 is performed. Even if No in step 1752, the process proceeds to step 1756. Next, in step 1756, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is a high-probability state. In the case of Yes in step 1756, in step 1758, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to AT in the next game is a high probability state. In the case of Yes in step 1758, in step 1760, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the number of high-securing obstacle games (10 in this example) in the high-securing obstacle counter, and performs the next processing (processing of step 3500). Transition. Even if No in step 1756 or step 1758, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 3500). In addition, after winning the BB in the "high probability state" and shifting to the "advantageous BB internal medium game", by winning the BB, the game shifts to the "advantageous BB state" and the AT game in the "advantageous BB state". When the number is added, the initial value set in the AT counter exceeds 50 when the BB ends and the state shifts from the "advantageous BB state" to the "AT in progress state". Specifically, when the number of AT games is added by 30 games in the "advantageous BB state" and then the state shifts to the "AT in progress state", 80 (initial value 50 + additional 30) is set in the AT counter. become. At this time, when the player is informed that 30 games have been added in the "advantageous BB state", the player is informed that the number of AT initial games is 80 at the start of the "AT in progress state". It is desirable to notify, but as another notification method, instead of notifying the player that 30 games have been added in the "advantageous BB state", the initial value is set at the start of the "AT in progress state". After presenting a certain 50 games to the player, the player is informed that 30 games have been added during AT (for example, immediately after the start of the "AT in progress state" or in a state where the number of remaining AT games in the effect display device S40 is small). A notification method for performing a notification effect is also conceivable. By doing so, the player cannot clearly grasp whether the number of AT games has been added in the "advantageous BB state" or how many games have been added. It is possible to enhance the interest in the additional production that suddenly occurs for unknown reasons during AT (a state in which push order navigation can occur). In this example, the number of AT initial games is set in the AT counter M60 in step 1754, but the execution timing of the process of setting the number of AT initial games is not limited to that of this example. The AT initial game number may be set in the AT counter M60 at the timing of executing the AT state transition control process in step 1400 described above. Further, the number of games set in the AT counter M60 (the number of AT initial games) is configured to be subtracted from the time when the game (the state related to AT is "AT in progress") after the end of BB. (Subtraction does not start during BB). Further, the counter value of the AT counter M60 is configured to be stored in the storage area of the RAM of the main control board M.

Next, FIG. 30 is an AT state transition diagram in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, "low probability state", "normal BB internal medium game", "normal BB state", "high probability state", "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state", "additional specialization state" , "Advantageous BB internal game", "Advantageous BB state", and "Resurrection possibility production state", and there are 10 AT-related states. The state will shift. For example, if the watermelon B is won in the "AT in progress state" and the special state transition lottery in which the watermelon B is won in 1/2 is won, the state shifts to the "specialization precursor state". In addition, when 10 games have passed (digested) after shifting to the "specialized precursor state", the game is configured to shift to the "additional specialized state". As the game section, the three AT-related states of "low probability state", "normal BB internal medium game", and "normal BB state" are set to "normal section", and "high probability state" and "during AT". The seven AT-related states of "state", "specialization precursor state", "additional specialization state", "advantageous BB internal medium game", "advantageous BB state", and "recoverable / non-recoverable production state" are now "advantageous sections". Set. That is, even if the states related to the seven ATs that are the "advantageous section" are transitioned (shifted), if 1500 games have passed without setting the "normal section", the "advantageous section" is forcibly terminated. Set to "normal section". In addition, the re-game 04 is stopped and displayed when the notification game state in which the push order navigation is displayed is the "AT in progress state", the "specialization precursor state", or the "additional specialization state". However, the game state is maintained.

As described above, when the AT counter M60 is in the "AT in progress state" and the counter value of the AT counter M60 is 0 and the continuous lottery is not won, the "Resurrection possibility / non-recovery effect state" is set. If the revival lottery is won in the "resurrection possibility production state", it is possible to return to the "AT in progress state" again. On the other hand, if the revival lottery is not won in the "revival possibility production state", the process shifts to the "low probability state" and the "advantageous section" is changed to the "normal section".

When the BB without setting difference (Type 1 BB-A or Type 1 BB-C) is won in the "high probability state", the setting difference BB operates, and the "advantageous BB state" ends, the "AT in progress state" To move to. Also, when the "AT in progress state" is won with no setting difference BB (Type 1 BB-A or Type 1 BB-C), the setting difference BB operates, and the "advantageous BB state" ends, " It shifts to "AT in progress". In addition, when the BB with no setting difference (Type 1 BB-A or Type 1 BB-C) is won in the "Resurrection possibility production state", the setting difference BB operates, and the "Advantageous BB state" ends. Also shifts to "AT in progress" (to win the revival lottery). In addition, when the BB with a setting difference (Type 1 BB-B) is won in the "state for effect of resurrection", the BB with a setting difference operates, and the "advantageous BB state" ends, the BB with a setting difference becomes independent. If the winning number is related to the BB role (winning number 20), it will be in a "low probability state" after the end of the BB (because the BB role with a setting difference will not win the revival lottery), and the BB with a setting difference will be rare. If the winning number is the same as the winning number (winning numbers 21 to 23), it will be in the "AT in progress state" after the end of BB (because the rare role will be the trigger to win the revival lottery).

In addition, when the BB with a setting difference (Type 1 BB-B) is won in the case of the "advantageous section" and the "high probability state", the BB with the setting difference operates, and the "advantageous BB state" ends. Move to "high probability state".

In addition, the state related to AT that shifts after the end of the "advantageous BB state" is after the end of the BB that was won during AT ("AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state", "additional specialization state") (setting difference). (Both with BB and BB without setting difference) shifts to the state related to AT at the time of BB winning among "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state" or "additional specialization state", and during non-AT ( After the end of the BB with no setting difference won in the "high probability state"), the state shifts to the "AT in progress state". In addition, there is a setting difference in winning during non-AT (“high probability state”), and after the end of BB, the state shifts to “high probability state”.

The state related to AT is not limited to that of the present embodiment. For example, an AT lottery is executed by winning a predetermined winning number in a "low probability state" or a "high probability state", and the AT lottery is performed. It may be configured to shift to the "precursor state" by winning the game, and to shift to the "AT in progress state" after 16 to 32 games have elapsed. By winning, the AT lottery is executed, and if the AT lottery is not won, it shifts to the "precursor state" and shifts to the "low probability state" or "high probability state" after 16 to 32 games have passed. It may be configured to do so. Further, a "waiting section" different from the "advantageous section" and the "normal section" may be provided as the game section. For example, when the game property is such that the AT lottery is executed by winning the "cherry", BB If you win the "BB + Cherry" where the cherry and the cherry overlap, and you win the AT lottery, the state inside the BB until the "BB" of the "BB + Cherry" wins is configured as the "waiting section". You may. In this way, by providing the "waiting section", the BB is won in the "low probability state" and the AT lottery is not won, and the BB is won and the AT is won in the "low probability state". Since the advantageous section indicator YH is off during the period until the BB symbol combinations are complete (until the advantageous section indicator lights up) in the case of winning the lottery, the AT lottery is won. It is possible to incite the player whether or not it is. Further, when the BB is won in the "additional specialization state", the "additional specialization state" may be restarted after the end of the BB. Execute an AT additional lottery different from the BB won in the "AT in progress state" as the BB won in the "additional specialization state" (for example, win the AT additional lottery than the BB won in the "AT in progress state") It may be configured so that the number of AT games is added and the number of games per game is relatively large). In addition, if the BB is elected in the "specialization precursor state", it may be configured to shift to the "additional specialization state" after the end of the BB. The AT additional lottery may be executed in the same manner as the winning BB in the "additional specialization state".

Next, FIG. 31 is a flowchart of the game section transition control process according to the subroutine of step 3500 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in the present embodiment, a game section is provided as a section related to the state of the game, and the game section is a "normal section" which is relatively low profit for the player and relatively high for the player. It has two game sections, an "advantageous section" which is a profitable section. As a description of the flowchart, first, in step 3508, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the game section related to the game is a “normal section”. In the case of Yes in step 3508, in step 3510, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the game section after the next game to the state related to the current AT and the game section corresponding to the current game situation, and proceeds to step 3528. do. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 3508, in other words, when the game section is an "advantageous section", in step 3514, the CPUC100 of the main control board M has a counter value of 0 in the advantageous section remaining game number counter YKc-1. Whether or not, in other words, whether or not the "advantageous section" has reached the maximum number of games that can be continued is determined. In the case of Yes in step 3514, in step 3515, the CPUC100 of the main control board M clears all the information related to AT (thus, the AT counter value becomes 0, and the number of staying games in the "specialized precursor state" is described. Things will also be 0). On the other hand, if No in step 3514, in step 3518, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not an arbitrary advantageous section end condition is satisfied. Here, the arbitrary advantageous section end condition is an end condition of the "advantageous section" other than the case where the counter value of the advantageous section remaining game counter YKc-1 becomes 0. For example, the AT counter value is 0. This is the case when the push order navigation is executed a predetermined number of times. If No in step 3518, that is, if any advantageous section end condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to step 3515. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the "advantageous section" is completed and the "normal section" is set after the next game, the information related to AT (the number of AT continuous games, the number of AT remaining games, etc.) Since all the information related to) is cleared, the conditions for becoming the "advantageous section" again in the subsequent "normal section" will not be relaxed. Information related to the AT to be cleared by the process of step 3515 (process at the end of the advantageous section) includes a counter value of the game remaining number counter YKc-1 in the advantageous section, a flag indicating the game state, and the like. In addition, this information is also cleared by clearing the RAM when the setting is changed, but depending on the RAM clear when the setting is changed, "condition device related to the accessory continuous operation device (BB)" or "RT state". , "The number of stored sheets" and the like are also cleared, but depending on the process of step 3515 (process at the end of the advantageous section), "condition device related to the accessory continuous operation device (BB)" or "RT state". , Information related to "number of stored sheets" etc. is not cleared. As described above, the RAM clear range when the setting is changed and the clear range at the end of the "advantageous section" (for example, when the process of step 3515 is executed) are different. It should be noted that the RAM is cleared when the setting is changed, so that the "conditional device related to the accessory continuous operation device (BB)" and the "RT state" may be held. In addition, the addresses in the range to be cleared at the end of the "advantageous section" are continuous. By making the addresses of the range to be cleared at the end of the "advantageous section" continuous in this way, it is possible to clear by a simple process of designating the range of the start address to be cleared and the range of the addresses to be cleared at the time of the clearing process. When the "advantageous section" is completed, a command relating to the end of the "advantageous section" is transmitted from the main control board M to the sub control board S. However, even if the sub-control board S side receives the command, the game history such as the fact that it was an "advantageous section" and the information related to how many games the "AT in progress state" was executed is not deleted. ing. However, when the RAM is cleared when the setting is changed, the game history such as the fact that it was an "advantageous section" on the sub-control board S side and information on how many games the "AT in progress state" was executed. Will also be erased.

When the "advantageous section" ends because the counter value of the game number counter YKc-1 remaining in the advantageous section becomes 0, (1) when the current state related to AT is the "high probability state". In the next game, the state related to AT becomes "low probability state". (2) If the current state related to AT is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the state related to AT becomes "advantageous BB internal medium game" in the next game. "Normal BB internal game", (3) If the current state related to AT is "Advantageous BB state", the state related to AT will be "Normal BB state" in the next game, (4) Currently If the state related to AT is "AT in progress state", "specialization precursor state", "additional specialization state", or "recoverable / non-recoverable production state", the state related to AT is "low probability" in the next game. It is configured to be "state" (because the information related to AT is cleared).

Next, in step 3516, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the game section after the next game to the “normal section”. Next, in step 3517, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the advantageous section indicator YH because the “advantageous section” is completed, and proceeds to step 3528. Although the advantageous section indicator YH is configured to be turned off when the "advantageous section" ends and is set to the "normal section", the detailed turn-off timing is not limited to the timing of the present embodiment. For example, the advantageous section indicator YH may be turned off when a game medal is inserted for a game in which the “advantageous section” ends and becomes the “normal section”. In other words, the advantageous section indicator YH may be turned off before the start lever D50, which enables the start of the next game, is operated. On the other hand, in the case of Yes in step 3518, in step 3520, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines the game section after the next game as an “advantageous section”, and proceeds to step 3528.

Next, in step 3528, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is newly set to the "advantageous section" in the next game (it is decided to be set from the "normal section" to the "advantageous section"). Judge whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 3528, in step 3530, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets a predetermined value in the advantageous section remaining game number counter YKc-1. The predetermined value set in the advantageous section remaining game number counter YKc-1 is a fixed value (1500 in this example) common to all the set values. Next, in step 3534, the CPUC100 of the main control board M lights up the advantageous section indicator YH, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 1293). Even if No in step 3528, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1293). In the present embodiment, the lighting process of the advantageous section indicator YH is executed at the timing of step 3534, but the lighting timing of the advantageous section indicator YH is not limited to this, and the advantageous section indicator YH is lit. The timing is from the operation timing of the start lever in the game before the new "advantageous section" (the game in the "normal section") to the timing when the game medal can be inserted in the game in the new "advantageous section" (newly "" If the game before the "advantageous section" is a game related to replay, set appropriately during the period (until the timing when the start lever operation becomes effective in the new "advantageous section" game). May be good.

Next, FIG. 32 is a flowchart of timer interrupt processing according to the subroutine of step 1600 in the present embodiment. The processing of the subroutine is started when the timer interrupt is started in the processing of step 1040 or step 1104, and thereafter, a predetermined time (T is set in this example, but a time of about 2 ms is set, for example). It is configured to be executed periodically with a cycle of).

First, in step 1602, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes processing at the start of an interrupt (for example, saving data held in a register in the CPUC100, checking the input port of a power failure detection signal, and the like). Next, in step 1604, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the power failure is currently detected (in the interrupt processing this time). If No in step 1604, in step 1900, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes a power-off processing described later. On the other hand, in the case of Yes in step 1604, in step 1606, the CPUC100 of the main control board M starts timer measurement (update processing of various timers managed by software). Next, in step 1608, the CPUC100 of the main control board M generates input port data and stores the data (updates the storage area of each input port data in the RAM area). Here, the input port data includes a settlement button D60, a start lever D50, a stop button D40, a door switch D80, a setting key switch M20, a setting / reset button M30, a power failure detection signal, an on reception sensor D10s, and a first on sensor. Information related to detection of the D20s, the second input sensor D30s, the first payout sensor H10s, the second payout sensor H20s, etc. (that is, the presence / absence of operation and the sensor detection state of these operating members are sampled at the interrupt interval T. Will be).

Next, in step 1610, the CPUC100 of the main control board M refers to the input port data in the RAM area, and turns on / off the door switch flag and the setting key switch flag according to the sampling result of each input port data. Switching (for example, when the switch state of the door switch D80 is continuously on over a plurality of samplings, by turning on the door switch flag, the front door DU is opened without being affected by noise. Can also be detected). Next, in step 6100, the CPUC100 of the main control board M is a rotation cylinder drive control process (process related to control of the drive of the reel M50) of all reels (left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53). Will be described later). Next, in step 1612, the CPUC100 of the main control board M refers to the AT counter M60 and determines whether or not the counter value is greater than 0. In the case of Yes in step 1612, in step 1613, the CPUC100 of the main control board M displays the number of remaining AT games (number of AT games) on the AT counter value display device D280, and proceeds to step 1614. In addition, even if No in step 1612, the process proceeds to step 1614. If the AT counter value display device D280 controlled by the main control board M is not provided, the processes of steps 1612 and 1613 are unnecessary. Next, in step 1614, the CPUC100 of the main control board M outputs the output data to the output port. Here, the output data is data for driving the reel M50, the blocker D100, and the like. Next, in step 1616, in the CPUC100 of the main control board M, all the error flags are turned off (although not shown, the inserted medal backflow error flag, the inserted number number error flag, the inserted medal retention error flag, the inserted abnormal error flag, It is determined whether or not all the flags related to the error such as the payout abnormality error flag, the payout medal retention error flag, and the door switch flag are off). In the case of Yes in step 1616, in step 1618, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets an error undetected command (a command to the sub side and a command related to the fact that an error is not detected) (for example, a register). (Set in the area), and the process proceeds to step 1622. On the other hand, if No in step 1616, in step 1620, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets an error detection command (a command to the sub side and a command related to the fact that an error is detected) (for example, (Set in the register area), and the process proceeds to step 1622. In step 1620, information related to an error (currently occurring error) corresponding to the turned-on error flag is transmitted to the sub side. In addition, the error undetected command may be set only when the error is cleared from the state in which the error occurred (only when it is determined that the flag is turned off), and when the error is not detected, the command is applicable. It is not necessary to execute the information setting process (step 1618 may be omitted). Further, the error detection command may execute the set process only when an error occurs from the state where the error has not occurred, or from the state where the first error (for example, the inserted medal retention error) has occurred. The set process may be executed when the type of error changes as in the second error (for example, payout medal retention error).

Next, in step 1622, the CPUC100 of the main control board M transmits a control command (command on the sub side) (for example, if it is set in the register area in step 1618 or step 1620, it is set). Control commands will be sent). Here, as commands to be transmitted to the sub-control board S, a command related to the start lever operation timing (transmitted immediately after the start lever operation) and a command related to the first reel stop acceptance timing (the stop button was operated as the first stop). Command related to the second reel stop acceptance timing (sent immediately after operating the stop button as the second stop), command related to the third reel stop acceptance timing (send the stop button as the third stop) (Sent immediately after operation), command related to stop timing of stop display symbol (sent immediately after operating the stop button as display symbol stop), winning / re-winning Commands related to game winning information (sent immediately after starting lever operation (limited to advantageous sections)), commands related to bonus winning information (sent immediately after starting lever operation), commands related to RT status (all reels Commands related to AT status (sent between the time all reels are stopped and the next game is started), Highly secured failure counter value command (sent immediately after starting lever operation), command related to the number of AT remaining games (between all reels stopped until the next game starts, or immediately after starting lever operation (Sent), commands related to the game section (sent between the time all reels are stopped and the next game is started), and so on. Next, in step 1624, the CPUC100 of the main control board M outputs an external terminal signal (a signal for transmitting information from the spinning machine P to an external hall computer or the like). Although not shown, the information related to the error output by the external signal includes a door opening error, a closing error error, a payout error error, a closing reception sensor retention error, and the like. The door opening error is configured to be an error when the front door DU is opened and the door switch flag is turned on, and the insertion reception sensor retention error is when the insertion reception sensor detects the retention of game medals. Is configured to cause an error. Next, in step 1626, the CPUC100 of the main control board M lights the output data of the LED (7-segment LED lamp, etc.) (for example, a predetermined 7-segment LED unit among the plurality of 7-segment LED units, and 7 Outputs (lights a predetermined segment of the segment) (so-called dynamic lighting). Next, in step 1628, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes an LED lighting mode (for example, changing the LED lighting color). Note that step 1628 does not have to be executed. Next, in step 1630, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes soft random number management processing (update processing of random number values managed by software, etc.). Next, in step 1632, the CPUC100 of the main control board M acquires the internal information register data (the internal information register has an area in which the error flag bit is set when an abnormality occurs in the random number generation circuit). .. Next, in step 1634, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the frequency of the random number update clock is normal (whether or not the abnormality flag bit indicating the frequency abnormality is set). Specifically, when the frequency of the random number update clock falls below a predetermined value, the error flag bit is set. In the case of Yes in step 1634, in step 1636, the CPUC100 of the main control board M has whether or not the update state of the built-in random number is normal (whether or not the error flag bit indicating the update state abnormality is set). To judge. In the case of Yes in step 1636, in step 1638, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the interrupt end process and shifts to the next process (process of step 1602). On the other hand, if No in step 1634 or step 1636, in step 1640, the CPUC100 of the main control board M sets the built-in random number error display (for example, sets the error number in the register area). Next, in step 1300, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the above-mentioned non-recoverable error processing.

Next, FIG. 33 is a flowchart of the rotating cylinder drive control process according to the subroutine of step 6100 of FIG. 32 in the present embodiment. In this process, the process for one reel is illustrated, but it should be added that the process corresponding to each of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53 is executed. First, in step 6102, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the reel rotation start standby state start timing (for example, the timing after the execution of the process of step 1564 in FIG. 25) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 6102, in step 6104, the CPUMC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel rotation start standby state, and proceeds to step 6106. On the other hand, even if No in step 6102, the process proceeds to step 6106.

Next, in step 6106, the CPUMC of the main control board M is the reel acceleration state start timing (the timing at which the reel rotation start standby state ends and the reel acceleration process starts to be executed. For example, in step 1260 of FIG. It is determined whether or not the processing execution timing) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 6106, in step 6108, the CPU MC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel acceleration state. Next, in step 6110, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the reel acceleration process, and proceeds to step 6112. When the reel is stopped, the rotation of the reel is started by this process. On the other hand, even if No in step 6106, the process proceeds to step 6112.

Next, in step 6112, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current reel driving state is the reel acceleration state. In the case of Yes in step 6112, in step 6114, the CPUMC of the main control board M executed all interrupt processing for the end timing of the reel acceleration state (for example, the “number of interrupt executions” in the reel acceleration state in FIG. 35 described later). It is determined whether or not the timing) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 6114, in step 6116, the CPUMC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel constant speed state. Next, in step 6118, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the reel constant speed maintenance process, and proceeds to step 6120. Even if No in step 6112 or 6114, the process proceeds to step 6120.

Next, in step 6120, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current reel driving state is the reel constant speed state. In the case of Yes in step 6120, in step 6122, the CPUMC of the main control board M is in the reel constant speed state (after executing the process of step 6116), and then the reel sensor is reeled (corresponding to the process of this subroutine). It is determined whether or not the index provided on the reel) is detected. Here, although not shown, each reel is provided with one (or two or more) indexes. The index is provided on the peripheral side surface of the reel, for example, in a convex shape, and is used when detecting whether or not the reel has passed a predetermined position, whether or not the reel has made one rotation, and the like. Then, each index is detected by the reel sensor. The signal of the reel sensor is electrically connected to the main control board M. Then, when the reel sensor detects (turns off) the index, the input signal is input to the main control board M, and it is detected that the reel has passed a predetermined position. If Yes in step 6122, it is determined that the reel rotation speed has reached a constant speed, and the process proceeds to step 6130. On the other hand, if No in step 6122, in step 6124, the CPUMC of the main control board M has elapsed a predetermined time (for example, a time value for executing interrupt processing 400 times) after the reel drive state is changed to the reel constant speed state. Determine if it has been done. If No in step 6124, it is determined that the rotation speed of the reel has reached a constant speed, and the process proceeds to step 6130. As described above, in this example, it is possible to determine whether the reel rotation speed is normally constant by detecting the index by the reel sensor within a predetermined time after the reel drive state becomes the reel constant speed state. It is configured. In this example, the predetermined time is a time value for executing 400 interrupt processes (configured so that 400 steps can be rotated with 400 interrupt processes), and the reel rotation speed is a constant speed. It is longer than the time for one rotation (one turn) of the reel (for example, one rotation of the reel is 336 steps, which is the time value for executing the interrupt process 336 times). With this configuration, how far is the distance between the index and the reel sensor (the distance until the reel rotates and the index is detected by the reel sensor) at the timing when the reel drive state becomes the constant speed state? However, if the reel rotation speed is constant, the reel sensor detects the index within the predetermined time (time value for executing interrupt processing 400 times) after the reel drive state becomes the reel constant speed state. It is configured to be able to.

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, in the case of Yes in step 6124, in step 6126, the CPU MC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel acceleration state. Next, in step 6128, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the reel reacceleration process, and shifts to the process of step 6130. As described above, in this example, when the reel sensor does not detect the index within a predetermined time (for example, the time value for executing the interrupt processing 400 times) after the reel driving state becomes the reel constant speed state. , The reel driving state is updated again to the reel acceleration state, and the reel reacceleration process (the excitation mode of the stepping motor is the same as that of the reel acceleration process) is executed. Even if No in step 6120, the process proceeds to step 6130. The reel reacceleration process does not have to be the same as the reel acceleration process described above, and the reel reacceleration process and the reel acceleration process are interrupt processes for each combination of exciting phases of the stepping motor and each combination of exciting phases. The number of times of execution may be different.

Next, FIG. 34 is a flowchart of the reel rotation stop process according to the subroutine of step 6200 of FIG. 32 in the present embodiment. First, in step 6106, the CPUMC of the main control board M becomes the reel deceleration standby state start timing (the timing at which the reel constant speed state ends, and for example, the reel deceleration standby state start timing is set by operating the stop button. It is determined whether or not the reel has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 6130, in step 6132, the CPUMC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel deceleration standby state, and shifts to step 6134. On the other hand, even if No in step 6130, the process proceeds to step 6134.

Next, in step 6134, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current reel driving state is the reel deceleration standby state. In the case of Yes in step 6136, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the reel deceleration standby state end timing (timing to start executing the reel deceleration process) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 6136, in step 6138, the CPUMC of the main control board M starts deceleration of the reel (reel deceleration process). Next, in step 6140, the CPUMC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel deceleration state, and shifts to the process of step 6142. Even if No in step 6134 or step 6136, the process proceeds to step 6142.

Next, in step 6142, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current reel driving state is the reel deceleration state. In the case of Yes in step 6142, in step 6144, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the reel deceleration state end timing (timing at which the reel deceleration process is executed ends) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 6144, in step 6146, the CPUMC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel stop state, and shifts to the next process (process of step 1612). Even if No in step 6142 or step 6144, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1612).

Next, with reference to FIG. 35, the rotational operation of the reel M50 of the rotating drum type gaming machine according to this example will be described in detail. The rotating cylinder type gaming machine according to this example starts the rotation of the stepping motor based on the operation of the start lever D50, and when the rotation speed of the reel reaches a constant speed, the constant speed is maintained thereafter (reel). When the drive state becomes the reel constant speed state, the reel constant speed maintenance process is executed, but the rotation speed may not actually reach the constant speed). Then, when any of the stop buttons is operated, stop control is performed on the reel (stepping motor) corresponding to the operated stop button. Here, the stepping motor is a 4-phase stepping motor having four phases of Φ0, Φ1, Φ2, and Φ3 (there is no problem even if it is not a 4-phase stepping motor), the phase to be excited is switched, and the stepping motor is changed to 1-2. Rotation control is performed by phase excitation. That is, the stepping motor can be rotated in the positive direction by cyclically changing the drive pulse data (combination of exciting phases). In the figure, of Φ0 to Φ3, the one indicating which phase is specified to be excited is shown in the column of “Phase to be excited” (details will be described later).

Further, as shown in the "reel rotation speed image" in the upper part of the figure, the drive state from the start of rotation to the stop of the stepping motor is divided into six, and the stepping motor is set according to the drive pattern according to each drive state. The drive is controlled. Here, the drive state includes a "reel stop state", a "reel rotation start standby state", a "reel acceleration state", a "reel constant speed state", a "reel deceleration standby state", and a "reel deceleration state". In the "reel rotation speed image", the vertical axis is the reel rotation speed and the speed increases upward, and the horizontal axis is time and the time elapses to the right. There is. In addition, the example shown in the figure illustrates the case where the reel rotation failure does not occur, and this is limited to the case where the reel rotation failure occurs due to factors such as pressing the reel by hand or causing step-out. It is not (the case where the reel rotation failure occurs will be described later).

The "reel stopped state" indicates a state in which the reel is stopped, and when the "reel stopped state" is in the "reel stopped state", the reel is in a stationary state and all four phases of the stepping motor are in a stationary state. Is in an unexcited state.

Next, in the "reel stop state", the reel drive state is updated to the "reel rotation start standby state" based on the operation of the start lever D50 at the timing (1) in the figure. .. Here, the "reel rotation start standby state" indicates a state of waiting from the operation of the start lever D50 until the acceleration processing (reel acceleration processing) of the stepping motor is started. This standby period is a period until the reel drive state shifts from the "reel stop state" to the "reel acceleration state". For example, the time from the time when the reel driving state becomes the "reel acceleration state" in the previous game is timed, and the start lever D50 related to this game is operated before the minimum game time (about 4.1 seconds) elapses. If this is done, the "reel rotation start standby state" is set.

Next, at the timing (2) in the figure, the reel drive state is updated from the "reel rotation start standby state" to the "reel acceleration state". Here, the "reel acceleration state" is a state in which the reel is accelerated in order to reach a constant speed from the state in which the reel is stationary. In this example, when the timer interrupt process is executed 220 times (“100 + 60 + 30 + 15 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 220”, refer to the number of interrupt executions in the reel acceleration state in the lower left of the figure), the acceleration state ends (the reel drive state is “reel constant speed”. It is configured to update to "state"). Next, the reel rotation speed reaches a constant speed at the timing (3) in the figure, in other words, at the timing when the "reel acceleration state" ends by executing one more timer interrupt process. At this timing, the reel drive state remains the "reel acceleration state". Next, at the timing (4) in the figure, the reel drive state is updated from the "reel rotation start standby state" to the "reel acceleration state", and then the timer interrupt process is executed 220 times to drive the reel. The state is updated to "reel constant speed state". As described above, in this example, after the reel rotation speed reaches a constant speed, the reel drive state remains in the "reel acceleration state" for one timer interrupt process, in other words, the final in the "reel acceleration state". The combination of exciting phases "φ3, φ0" is configured to execute interrupt processing only once, which is the same as the "reel constant speed state" in which interrupt processing is executed once for each combination of exciting phases. (When the reel rotation abnormality does not occur). With this configuration, the acceleration process until the reel rotation speed reaches a constant speed can be stably executed.

Here, the lower part of the figure is a “step motor excitation image”. In the figure, a step motor excitation image when the reel drive state is the “reel acceleration state” and a step motor excitation image when the reel drive state is the “reel constant speed state” are illustrated. First, the step motor excitation image when the reel driving state is the “reel acceleration state” will be described in detail with reference to the lower left part of the figure. The "exciting phase" is a combination of the exciting phases, and the "interrupt execution count" indicates the number of times the interrupt processing to be excited by the combination of the exciting phases is executed. In this example, when the reel acceleration process is executed, the step motor (stepping motor) is configured to excite 220 times of the timer interrupt process, and (KA) "φ0" interrupts the interrupt process 100 times → ( KB) Interrupt processing 60 times at "φ0, φ1" → (KC) Interrupt processing 30 times at "φ1" → (KD) Interrupt processing 15 times at "φ1, φ2" → (KE) "φ2" Interrupt processing 8 times at (KF) "φ2, φ3" → Interrupt processing 2 times at (KG) "φ3" → Interrupt at (KH) "φ3, φ0" The interrupt processing is executed once to excite the step motor (stepping motor) (the number of times the interrupt processing is executed is just an example, and there is no problem even if it is changed). As described above, in this example, when the reel acceleration processing is executed, the number of times the interrupt processing is executed is gradually reduced by the combination of the exciting phases of 1.

Next, the step motor excitation image when the reel driving state is the “reel constant speed state” will be described in detail with reference to the lower right part of the figure. In this example, when the reel is in a constant speed state (when executing the reel constant speed maintenance process), interrupt processing is performed once at (TA) "φ0" → (TB) at "φ0, φ1". Interrupt processing once → (TC) “φ1” interrupt processing once → (TD) “φ1, φ2” interrupt processing once → (TE) “φ2” interrupt processing once → (TF) Interrupt processing once at "φ2, φ3" → (TG) Interrupt processing once at "φ3" → (TH) Interrupt processing once at "φ3, φ0" → (TA) " Interrupt processing is executed once at "φ0" → (TB) Interrupt processing is performed once at "φ0, φ1" → ..., (TA) to (TG) are repeatedly executed once for each interrupt processing. It is configured to excite a step motor (stepping motor). As described above, in this example, when the reel constant speed maintenance process is executed, the interrupt process is executed once with the combination of the exciting phases of 1.

Next, in a situation where the reel drive state is the "reel constant speed state", the stop button corresponding to any of the reels is operated at the timing (5) in the figure, and the reel drive state is the "reel deceleration standby state". Is updated to. Here, the "reel constant speed state" is a state in which the reel rotation speed is constant (a state in which the combination of exciting phases is switched for each interrupt process), and is a "reel deceleration standby state". "" Indicates a state from the operation of the stop button by the player to the start of the stop control (in the reel deceleration standby state, the reel slides corresponding to the number of slip frames). .. The period of this drive state is determined based on the operation timing of the stop button.

Next, at the timing (6) in the figure, the reel drive state is updated from the "reel deceleration standby state" to the "reel deceleration state", and the reel deceleration is started. When the reel drive state is updated from the "reel deceleration standby state" to the "reel deceleration state", a specific phase of the stepping motor is continuously excited for a predetermined time in order to stop the rotation of the reel. Performs 4-phase excitation to excite everything. Then, when the excitation is performed for a predetermined time, the reel drive state is updated from the "reel deceleration state" to the "reel stop state" at the timing (7) in the figure, and the reel is stopped.

As described above, in the reeling game machine according to this example, the reel sensor detects the index within a predetermined time (for example, the time value for executing the interrupt process 400 times) after the reel driving state becomes the reel constant speed state. If not, the reel drive state is updated to the reel acceleration state again, and the reel reacceleration process (the excitation mode of the stepping motor is the same as the reel acceleration process) is executed. When the reel driving state is the reel acceleration state, in other words, it is not determined whether or not the reel acceleration is normally executed during the execution of the reel acceleration processing. Further, whether the reel has been accelerated normally, in other words, whether the reel is at a constant speed (whether a reel rotation failure has occurred) is the process of step 6124 (the reel drive state is changed to the reel constant speed state). Judgment is made after a predetermined time has passed since the update), but the reel is not at a constant speed because the reel sensor did not detect the index in the process of step 6124 (reel rotation failure). When it is determined that the reel acceleration process has occurred), the reel acceleration process is executed, that is, the reel acceleration process is executed again from the beginning. In this way, by configuring so that it is not determined whether or not the reel acceleration is normally executed during the execution of the reel acceleration processing, even if a reel rotation failure occurs during the execution of the reel acceleration processing, the reel rotation failure is subsequently performed. If the reel rotation failure is resolved and the reel rotation speed can be reached to a constant speed by the remaining reel acceleration processing until the reel acceleration processing is completed, the reel drive state is the reel constant speed state. By detecting the index by the reel sensor until a predetermined time elapses after being updated to, the reel constant speed maintenance process is executed without executing the reacceleration process, and the player is executed by executing the reel reacceleration process. Can make it difficult for the game to proceed (the stop button cannot be operated). Further, by configuring so that the process of determining whether or not the reel acceleration is normally executed is not executed during the execution of the reel acceleration process, the amount of data required for the process related to the rotation of the reel can be reduced. Since it is configured in this way, if a reel rotation failure occurs while the spinning machine according to this example is executing the reel acceleration process, it acts as follows. It becomes.

<Action 1>
Reel rotation starts → Reel drive state is updated to reel acceleration state → Reel acceleration process is executed → Reel acceleration process is finished execution → Reel drive state is updated to reel constant speed state → Reel constant speed maintenance process is executed → Reel constant Reel rotation failure occurs during execution of speed maintenance process → Reel rotation failure is detected → Reel reacceleration process is executed It is configured to be able to operate as described above.
In addition, the reel rotation failure means that the reel rotation is hindered by a member provided near the reel such as the reel window D160 (the reel rubs against the reel window D160, etc.), step-out occurs, and the reel accelerates. Refers to the case where is not executed normally. As described above, by configuring the reel reacceleration process to be executed even when a reel rotation failure occurs during the execution of the reel constant speed maintenance process, the game can proceed smoothly.

<Action 2>
Reel rotation starts → Reel drive state is updated to reel acceleration state → Reel acceleration processing is executed → Reel rotation failure occurs during execution of reel acceleration processing → Reel acceleration processing is continuously executed → Reel acceleration processing execution ends → Update the reel drive state to the reel constant speed state → Execute the reel constant speed maintenance process → Detect the reel rotation failure → Execute the reel reacceleration process It is configured to be able to operate as described above. In this way, even if a reel rotation failure occurs during the execution of the reel acceleration process, the game can proceed smoothly by configuring the reel re-acceleration process to be executed when the reel rotation failure is subsequently detected. Will be possible. Further, as described above, even if a reel acceleration process occurs during the execution of the reel acceleration process, the reel acceleration process is continuously executed and an interrupt similar to the case where the reel acceleration process does not occur is interrupted. When the reel acceleration processing is executed for the number of times, the execution of the reel acceleration processing is terminated. With this configuration, if a reel rotation failure occurs immediately after the start of execution of the reel acceleration process, the reel rotation speed can easily reach a constant speed without executing the reel reacceleration process. can.

<Action 3>
Reel rotation starts → Reel drive state is updated to reel acceleration state → Reel acceleration processing is executed → Power off occurs during execution of reel acceleration processing → Recovery from power off → Reel acceleration processing is continuously executed (unprocessed) Execute reel acceleration processing) → Reel rotation failure occurs during execution of reel acceleration processing → Continue execution of reel acceleration processing (execute unprocessed reel acceleration processing) → End of execution of reel acceleration processing → Reel drive state Is updated to the reel constant speed state → the reel constant speed maintenance process is executed → the reel rotation failure is detected → the reel reacceleration process is executed. In this way, even if a power failure occurs during the execution of the reel acceleration process, the reel acceleration process is continuously executed after the power is restored, and then within a predetermined time after the reel drive state is updated to the reel constant speed state. By executing the reel re-acceleration process when the reel sensor does not detect the index, the game can proceed smoothly. In addition, if a power failure occurs during the execution of the reel acceleration process, the reel acceleration process is continuously executed after the power is restored, and then the reel drive state is updated to the reel constant speed state, and then the reel sensor is used within a predetermined time. Is configured not to execute the reel re-acceleration process when it detects an index, and by doing so, the player cannot proceed with the game (cannot operate the stop button) due to the reel re-acceleration process. It can be made less likely to occur.

<< Action after final stop button operation >>
In the rotating drum type gaming machine according to this example, the final reel (a reel that rotates to the end and is also referred to as a third reel) is stopped after the operation of the final stop button (third stop button), and a winning combination is obtained. Although it is configured so that the payout of the game medal can be executed when the symbol combination is stopped and displayed, the action related to the payout of the game medal may be configured as follows.

<Action 1>
Reel rotation starts as a winning game → Reel drive state is updated to constant speed state → Constant speed state maintenance process is executed → Stop button reception is enabled → 1st stop as stop operation of 1st reel Operate the button → Display the stop of the 1st reel → Operate the 2nd stop button as the stop operation of the 2nd reel → Display the stop of the 2nd reel → Operate the 3rd stop button as the stop operation of the 3rd reel (3rd stop button) (Accepts the operation of) → Updates the reel drive state to the reel deceleration state → Power cut occurs → The third reel moves to the stop display position (rotation) → Detects power cut → Executes power cut processing → Power restore → Reel The symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination may be configured to stop display → execute the process related to the payout of the game medal so as to act as described above. With this configuration, the stop operation of the third stop button is accepted in the game such as the above-mentioned common bell, which wins a small winning combination that can be won regardless of the operation timing of the stop button if it is won. Even if a power outage occurs immediately after a power outage in the amusement park, regardless of the planned stop position of the third reel (even if the number of slip frames is the maximum), the power outage is detected before the power outage is detected. It can be configured to complete the movement (rotation) to the planned stop position. In addition, when the symbol combination (for example, the common bell) constituting the winning combination is stopped and displayed after the power is restored, the game medal can be paid out normally, and the player is unlikely to be disadvantaged. Can be configured.

<Action 2>
Reel rotation starts as a winning game → Reel drive state is updated to constant speed state → Constant speed state maintenance process is executed → Stop button reception is enabled → 1st stop as stop operation of 1st reel Operate the button → Display the stop of the 1st reel → Operate the 2nd stop button as the stop operation of the 2nd reel → Display the stop of the 2nd reel → Operate the 3rd stop button as the stop operation of the 3rd reel (3rd stop button) (Accepts the operation of) → Updates the reel drive state to the reel deceleration state → Reel rotation failure occurs → The third reel cannot move (rotate) to the scheduled stop position as seen from the player → Winning role in the reel from the player's point of view Although the symbol combination corresponding to is not displayed as stopped, it is determined that the symbol combination is normal in the determination process of step 1269 (when it is determined that the reel stop control based on the operation of the stop button is completed normally). For example, in a game in which the bell role is won, the symbol combination corresponding to the bell role, which is the winning combination, is not stopped and displayed on the reel from the player's point of view, but the game machine corresponding to the operation of the stop button of the player. When the stop control for displaying the symbol combination corresponding to the bell combination is normally executed by the internal processing) → The processing related to the payout of the game medal is executed. It may be configured to operate as described above. With this configuration, even if the reel rotation failure occurs immediately after accepting the stop operation of the third stop button, and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is not stopped and displayed on the reel from the player's point of view. , Accepts the operation of the stop button corresponding to each reel (left reel, middle reel, right reel) at the timing when the winning combination is won by the internal processing of the gaming machine and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination can be stopped and displayed. When the stop control for displaying the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is normally executed, the game medal can be paid out, and the player is less likely to be disadvantaged. can do. The timing at which the reel rotation failure occurs is not limited to the above example, and the reel rotation failure occurs during the period from the stop display of the second reel to the execution of the process related to the payout of the game medal, and as a result, the first reel rotation failure occurs. 3 It is applicable when the reel corresponding to the stop cannot be stopped at the scheduled stop position (it can also be applied to the action related to the reel rotation failure illustrated below). In the above action 2, the action in the game in which the winning combination is won is illustrated. That is, if the reel rotation failure does not occur, the following actions are obtained (if the rotation failure and the power failure do not occur in other actions, the same action is obtained. May be good).
Reel rotation starts as a winning game → Reel drive state is updated to constant speed state → Constant speed state maintenance process is executed → Stop button reception is enabled → 1st stop as stop operation of 1st reel Operate the button → Display the stop of the 1st reel → Operate the 2nd stop button as the stop operation of the 2nd reel → Display the stop of the 2nd reel → Operate the 3rd stop button as the stop operation of the 3rd reel (3rd stop button) (Accepts the operation of) → Updates the reel drive state to the reel deceleration state → The third reel moves to the scheduled stop position as seen from the player → The symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped and displayed on the reel from the player's point of view In the determination process of step 1269, it is determined that the symbol combination is normal. → The process related to the payout of the game medal is executed. Regardless, it may be a winning combination that can be won (for example, a common bell), or a winning combination that may or may not be won depending on the operation timing of the stop button in the winning game (for example, watermelon A, watermelon B, etc.) It may be a cherry). In addition, in a game in which a predetermined winning combination is won in a predetermined gaming state, when the reel rotation failure or power failure does not occur and the symbol combination corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is stopped and displayed, the reel backlight ( When the back lamp effect corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is configured to be executed as the effect (sometimes referred to as the back lamp effect) in which the back lamp (sometimes referred to as the back lamp) blinks, the game state is set to the predetermined game state. Even if the reel rotation failure occurs in the game in which the predetermined winning combination is won and the symbol combination corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is not stopped and displayed, the back corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is not displayed. It may be configured to perform a lamp effect. Further, in this operation, the case where the reel corresponding to the third stop could not be stopped at the scheduled stop position was illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the reel corresponding to the first stop is scheduled to stop due to poor reel rotation. It may be applied when the reel cannot be stopped at the position, or when the reel corresponding to the second stop cannot be stopped at the scheduled stop position due to poor reel rotation (the same applies to other actions). Applicable).

<Action 3>
Reel rotation starts as a winning game → Reel drive state is updated to constant speed state → Constant speed state maintenance process is executed → Stop button reception is enabled → 1st stop as stop operation of 1st reel Operate the button → Display the stop of the 1st reel → Operate the 2nd stop button as the stop operation of the 2nd reel → Display the stop of the 2nd reel → Stop the power supply to the game machine due to the power failure → 3rd Operate the 3rd stop button as the reel stop operation (accept the operation of the 3rd stop button) → Update the reel drive state to the reel deceleration state → Detect power off → Execute power off processing → 3 reel is the player Cannot move (rotate) to the planned stop position when viewed from It is a case where it is determined that the stop control of the reel based on the operation of the stop button is completed normally. The symbol combination was not stopped and displayed, but when the stop control to stop and display the symbol combination corresponding to the bell role was normally executed by the processing inside the game machine corresponding to the operation of the stop button of the player) → Game Executing the process related to the payout of medals It may be configured to operate as described above. The timing of detecting the power outage, the timing of stopping the power supply to the gaming machine due to the power outage, the timing of determining that the symbol combination is normal in the determination process of step 1269, and the timing of returning the power supply are , Not limited to the above timing, the timing to detect the power outage and the power to the gaming machine due to the power outage occur during the period from the stop display of the second reel to the execution of the processing related to the payout of the game medal. It suffices if there is a timing at which the supply of the above is stopped, a timing at which the symbol combination is determined to be normal in the determination process of step 1269, and a timing at which the power is restored. Is applicable to all cases where the machine cannot be stopped at the planned stop position (the same applies to the actions including the power failure illustrated below). With this configuration, the power was cut off immediately before (or immediately after) the stop operation of the third stop button was received, and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination could not be stopped and displayed on the reel from the player's point of view. Even in this case, the stop button corresponding to each reel (left reel, middle reel, right reel) can be displayed at the timing when the winning combination is won by the internal processing of the gaming machine and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination can be stopped and displayed. If the operation is accepted and the stop control for stopping and displaying the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is normally executed, the game medal is paid out after the power is restored (the hopper is driven to pay out the game medal). It is possible to execute not only the payout from the reeling port but also the display (the number of credits) of the credit number display device), and it is configured so that the player is unlikely to be disadvantaged. Can be done. The timing at which the power supply is cut off and the power supply to the gaming machine is stopped may be referred to as the timing at which the power supply is cut off. In addition, in a game in which a predetermined winning combination is won in a predetermined gaming state, when the reel rotation failure or power failure does not occur and the symbol combination corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is stopped and displayed, the reel backlight ( When the back lamp effect corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is configured to be executed as the effect (sometimes referred to as the back lamp effect) in which the back lamp (sometimes referred to as the back lamp) blinks, the game state is set to the predetermined game state. In the game in which the predetermined winning combination is won, even if the power is cut off and the symbol combination corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is not stopped and displayed, the back lamp corresponding to the predetermined winning combination is not displayed. It may be configured to perform the effect. Further, in this operation, the case where the reel corresponding to the third stop could not be stopped at the scheduled stop position was illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the reel corresponding to the first stop is at the scheduled stop position due to the power failure. It may be applied when the reel cannot be stopped at the second stop, or when the reel corresponding to the second stop cannot be stopped at the planned stop position due to the power failure (the same can be applied to other actions). Is).

<Action 4> Reel rotation starts as a lost game → Reel drive state is updated to constant speed state → Constant speed state maintenance process is executed → Acceptance of stop button becomes effective → As stop operation of the first reel Operate the 1st stop button → Display the stop of the 1st reel → Operate the 2nd stop button as the stop operation of the 2nd reel → Display the stop of the 2nd reel → Operate the 3rd stop button as the stop operation of the 3rd reel (No. 3 Accepts the operation of the stop button) → Updates the reel drive state to the reel deceleration state → Reel rotation failure occurs → The third reel cannot move (rotate) to the scheduled stop position as seen by the player → Reel as seen by the player Although the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped and displayed, it is determined that the symbol combination is normal in the determination process of step 1269 (when it is determined that the reel stop control based on the operation of the stop button is completed normally). For example, in a game that was lost, the symbol combination corresponding to the loss was not stopped and displayed on the reel from the player's point of view, but it was lost due to the processing inside the game machine corresponding to the operation of the stop button of the player. When the stop control for displaying the stop display of the symbol combination corresponding to is normally executed) → The game medal is not paid out. It may be configured to operate as described above. With this configuration, in a game in which the result of the winning combination lottery is lost, a reel rotation failure occurs immediately after accepting the stop operation of the third stop button, and the reel corresponds to the winning combination from the player's point of view. Even if the symbol combination to be played is stopped and displayed, it will be lost due to the internal processing of the gaming machine, and each reel (left reel, middle reel, right reel) will be supported at the timing when the symbol combination corresponding to the loss can be stopped and displayed. If the operation of the stop button is accepted and the stop control for displaying the symbol combination corresponding to the loss is normally executed, the game medal is displayed even if the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped and displayed. It can be configured not to execute the payout, and it can be a fair game machine and can be a game machine that does not cause an unintended disadvantage to the game field. Note that the above-mentioned action 4 is not limited to loss, and for example, in a game in which the bell is not won (a game in which the replay role is won, a game in which the watermelon is won, etc.), a reel rotation failure occurs. It should be added that it can be applied even when the symbol combination corresponding to the bell is stopped and displayed. Further, in such a case, the symbol combination displayed as stopped from the player's point of view is a symbol combination that is inconsistent with the internal lottery result due to poor rotation. Since it is determined that the symbol combination is normal, a display determination error (unrecoverable error) does not occur (it is not determined that a display determination error has occurred).

This is the case when it is determined that the reel stop control based on the button operation has been completed normally. , When the stop control to stop and display the symbol combination corresponding to the loss is normally executed by the processing inside the game machine corresponding to the operation of the stop button of the player) → Power recovery → The game medal is not paid out It may be configured to act as follows. With this configuration, in a game that has been lost as a result of the winning combination lottery, the power off processing is executed immediately after accepting the stop operation of the third stop button, and the reel corresponds to the winning combination from the player's point of view. Even if the symbol combination to be played is stopped and displayed, it will be lost due to the internal processing of the gaming machine, and each reel (left reel, middle reel, right reel) will be supported at the timing when the symbol combination corresponding to the loss can be stopped and displayed. If the operation of the stop button is accepted and the stop control for displaying the symbol combination corresponding to the loss is normally executed, the game medal is displayed even if the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped and displayed. It can be configured not to execute the payout, and it can be a fair gaming machine and can be a gaming machine that does not cause an unintended disadvantage to the playing field.

Next, FIG. 36 is a flowchart of the power cutoff process according to the subroutine of step 1900 in FIG. 35. First, in step 1902, the CPUC100 of the main control board M saves the stack pointer. Next, in step 1904, the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns on the power-off processed flag (for example, updates the inside of the power-off processed flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to on). Next, in step 1906, the CPUC100 of the main control board M calculates a checksum from the start address of the RAM area to the address immediately before the checksum area, and error detection information (for example, the calculation) based on the calculated checksum. The lower 1 byte of the checksum, or its complement) is set in the checksum area. Next, in step 1912, the CPUC100 of the main control board M prohibits the writing of the RAM, and the process proceeds to step 1914. Next, in step 1914, the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes an infinite loop process for waiting for a reset.

Next, FIG. 37 shows an example of an image diagram of a push order display of the rotating drum type gaming machine according to this example. The table on the figure shows the reel stop order and the instruction number indicated by the push order navigation to be executed (information related to the push order, which is determined by the main control board M and transmitted to the sub control board S in this example). It is a table showing the correspondence with. For example, the instruction number for notifying "middle->right->left" as the pressing order indicates that it is "A5". Next, on the left side of the figure, the push order display device D270, the advantageous section display YH, and the effect display device S40 when the push order is “left → middle → right” (corresponding instruction number is “A1”). The image displayed in is illustrated. Here, the push order display device D270 of this example is a 7-segment display system and also serves as a payout number display device. When the medals are paid out, the number of medals paid out is displayed as a two-digit number on the push order display device D270. Here, even when the push order navigation is executed, if the display of the push order display device D270 is displayed as a two-digit numerical value, the display on the push order display device D270 is whether the number of medals paid out or the push order. It becomes difficult to determine whether it is a navigation display. Therefore, in order to distinguish between the number of medals to be paid out and the push order navigation display, the push order display device D270 should display "=" in the left digit like "= 1". By configuring, when the display of the push order display device D270 is a two-digit number, it is a display of the number of medals to be paid out, and the left side is "=" and the right side is a number as the display of the push order display device D270. If there is, it is configured so that it can be determined that it is a push order navigation display, and it is configured so that the player's misidentification can be prevented. Further, in the advantageous section indicator YH provided at the lower right of the push order display device D270, a lamp indicating that the current game section is an "advantageous section" is lit. At the same time, the display of "remaining 40 games" indicating the number of remaining games in the "advantageous section" (or "AT in progress") is displayed on the effect display device S40. Further, the right side in the figure shows an image displayed on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 when the push order is “middle → left → right” (corresponding instruction number is “A3”). There is. In addition, since the current game section is an "advantageous section", the advantageous section indicator YH lights up, and the display of "remaining 25 games" indicating the number of remaining games in the "advantageous section" is displayed on the effect display device S40. Is displayed. It should be noted that, among the conditional devices in which the combination displayed as stopped depending on the reel stop order is different, the combination with the push order (the conditional device with the payout of medals, for example, the bell) and the replay combination with the push order (depending on the reel stop order). Among the condition devices having different combinations to be stopped and displayed, the segment display of the instruction number of the condition device related to the replay combination) may be different, or the push order display device D270 may be used.
The display method is not limited to 7 segments. For example, an LED display may be used to light a plurality of LEDs according to a lighting pattern corresponding to an instruction number to give an instruction. good. The credit number display device D200 may be provided with an advantageous section display YH at the lower right. In this case, the timing for turning on the advantageous section indicator YH is preferably until the operation of the settlement button D60 becomes effective. When the player quits the game, he / she visually checks the credit number display device D200 to check whether any medals remain. Then, if there are medals remaining, the settlement button D60 is operated. That is, it is a user-friendly gaming machine that can prevent the game from being accidentally stopped even though it is an "advantageous section" from the next game by turning on the settlement button D60 before it becomes effective. be able to.

Further, the notification mode of the game section in the advantageous section indicator YH is not limited to this example, and a section indicator similar to the advantageous section indicator YH is provided at the lower right of both of the two 7 segments (the interval indicator is provided). It may be configured (providing two), and in such a configuration, when the section indicator on the left side lights up, it notifies that the current game section is a "normal section", and on the other hand, it is on the right side. When the section indicator lights up, it may be configured to notify that the current game section is an “advantageous section”. Furthermore, the "normal section" and the "advantageous section" are distinguished according to the color and lighting mode when the section indicator is lit (for example, "green" in the "normal section" and "red" in the "advantageous section". Alternatively, it may be configured to be lit in the "normal section" and "blinking" in the "advantageous section"). Furthermore, the display mode of the section display is changed depending on the "internal BB game during AT", "BB state during AT", "AT precursor state", "AT in progress state", etc. in the "advantageous section". You may. Further, it may be configured so that the current gaming section can be recognized as a "standby section" by distinguishing it from a "normal section" and an "advantageous section". However, the distinction between "normal section" and "advantageous section" is made easy to distinguish, such as by using different section indicators, and the player recognizes whether or not the current game section is "advantageous section". It is preferable to make it easy to do.

Further, regarding the display on the effect display device S40 indicating the number of remaining games in the "advantageous section", for example, in the "AT precursor state" or "AT preparing", the number of remaining games in the "advantageous section" is not displayed. It may be configured (notifying the disadvantage to the player that the number of remaining games in the "advantageous section" is subtracted in a state where the profit is relatively low for the player). However, even in such a configuration, it is preferable to turn on the section indicator to notify the player that the "advantageous section" is in progress. At the same time, it is preferable that the section indicator is configured to be controlled by the main control board M side, and the section indicator is installed at a position where the display is easily visible to the player.

Next, the control process executed on the sub-control board S side will be described with reference to FIGS. 38 to 57.

<Sub-program start processing>
First, FIG. 38 is a subroutine showing a sub-side program start process. This sub-side program start process is called and executed when the power is turned on.

First, in step 2002, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S disables interrupts. Next, in step 2004, the CPU SC of the sub-control board S executes various initialization processes such as initialization of the CPU and RAM, calculation of the checksum, and the like.

Next, in step 2008, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the checksum value calculated when the power is turned on and the checksum value calculated and stored when the power is turned off match. In the case of Yes in step 2008, in other words, if it is determined in the determination process of step 2008 that both checksum values match, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes one command process described later in step 2010. It is determined whether or not the state has been restored from the state in which the power was cut off, that is, whether or not the state has been completely restored.

In the case of Yes in step 2010, in other words, when it is determined that the command is completely restored, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S allows interrupts and executes the command when a power failure occurs in step 2012. 1 Return the process to command processing.

On the other hand, if No in step 2008, in other words, if it is determined in the determination process of step 2008 that the checksum values of both do not match, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S clears the RAM in step 2014. To execute. After executing the process of step 2014, or when No in step 2010, the process is shifted to the sub-main loop process.

<Sub-main loop processing>
Next, FIG. 39 is a subroutine showing the sub-main loop processing. The sub-main loop process is called and executed after the sub-side program start process shown in FIG. 38 is executed.

In step 2204, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the sub-side program start process is being executed. If Yes in step 2204, the process proceeds to step 2210. On the other hand, if No in step 2204, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calculates the checksum in step 2206. Next, in step 2208, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S saves various data (checksum calculation result, address of the program being executed, etc.), and proceeds to step 2210.

Next, in step 2210, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not 500 ms has elapsed. Here, when it is determined that 500 ms has passed, the power off processing is terminated. On the other hand, if No in step 2210, in step 2212, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the power supply has been restored. In the case of Yes in step 2212, in step 2214, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S updates the number of momentary interruption occurrences. Next, in step 2216, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S starts the operation of the watchdog timer and returns to the process executed when the power is turned off. If it is determined in the determination process of step 2212 that the power supply has not been restored, the process is returned to step 2210 described above.

<1 command processing>
Next, FIG. 41 is a subroutine showing one command process that is called and executed in the process of step 2250 of FIG. 39.

Next, in step 2252, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not it is the operation timing of the start lever. In the case of No in step 2252, in other words, when it is determined that it is the operation timing of the start lever, in step 3000, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls and executes a subroutine of the effect-related determination process at the time of start lever operation, which will be described later. do. Next, in step 2300, the CPU SC of the sub-control board S executes the start lever operation time process described later, and proceeds to step 7100.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2252, in other words, if it is not the operation timing of the start lever, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines in step 2254 whether or not it is the first reel stop acceptance timing. In the case of No in step 2254, in other words, in the case of the first reel stop acceptance timing, in step 2500, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls and executes the subroutine of the first reel stop acceptance processing described later. Then, the process proceeds to step 7100.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2254, in other words, if it is not the first reel stop acceptance timing, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines in step 2258 whether or not it is the second reel stop acceptance timing. .. In the case of No in step 2258, in other words, in the case of the second reel stop reception reception timing, in step 2550, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls and executes the subroutine of the second reel stop reception reception processing described later. Then, the process proceeds to step 7100.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2258, in other words, if it is not the second reel stop acceptance timing, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines in step 2262 whether or not it is the third reel stop acceptance timing. .. In the case of No in step 2262, in other words, in the case of the third reel stop acceptance timing, in step 3200, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls the subroutine of the third reel stop production related determination process described later. And execute. Next, in step 2600, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the third body stop acceptance processing described later, and proceeds to step 7100.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2262, in other words, if it is not the third reel stop acceptance timing, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines in step 2266 whether or not it is the stop timing of the stop display symbol. .. In the case of Yes in step 2266, in other words, when it is the stop timing of the stop display symbol, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the stop display symbol time processing (not shown) in step 2268, and step 7100. Move to. On the other hand, if No in step 2266, in other words, if it is not the stop timing of the stop display symbol, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S immediately shifts to step 7100.

Next, in step 7100, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the menu screen display control process described later. Next, in step 7200, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the standby screen display control process described later, and shifts to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, FIG. 42 is a subroutine showing the effect-related determination process at the time of start lever operation, which is called and executed in the process of step 3000 of FIG. First, in step 3002, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the state related to the AT of the game is a “high probability state”. In the case of Yes in step 3002, in step 3004, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is based on the high-secured failure counter value command received from the main control board M side, and the number of high-secured failure games remaining at the present time (high probability state). Check how many more games are guaranteed). Next, in step 3050, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls and executes a subroutine of the battle effect execution feasibility determination process described later, and proceeds to step 3006. Next, in step 3006, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not it is determined that the battle effect is executed in the game. In the case of Yes in step 3006, in step 3008, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the current stay stage, the state related to the AT of the game, the state related to the AT of the next game, and the current number of high-securing obstacle games. Based on this, the stay stage transition lottery (lottery for whether or not to change the stay stage) is executed with reference to the stay stage determination table (see FIG. 44), and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2300). Even if No in step 3006, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2300). On the other hand, if No in step 3002, in step 3010, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the state related to AT of the game is a “low probability state”. In the case of Yes in step 3010, in step 3012, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S uses the stay stage determination table (FIG. 44) based on the current stay stage, the state related to the AT of the game, and the state related to the AT of the next game. Refer to), the stay stage transition lottery is executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2300). On the other hand, if No in step 3010, in step 3014, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the state related to AT of the game is "AT in progress". In the case of Yes in step 3014, in step 3100, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls and executes a subroutine of the effect determination process during AT, which will be described later, and shifts to the next process (process of step 2300). On the other hand, if No in step 3014, in step 3016, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the state related to the AT of the game is the "recoverable / non-recoverable effect state". In the case of Yes in step 3016, in step 3150, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S calls and executes a subroutine of the resurrection possibility effect determination process described later, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 2300). On the other hand, if No in step 3016, in step 3018, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S performs the advance notice effect and the stay stage based on the current stay stage, the state related to the AT of the game, and the state related to the AT of the next game. The determination is made, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2300). The stay stage is mainly a background effect displayed on the effect display device S40, and is configured so that one of the stay stages is always set. If the stay stage is different, the tendency of various effects such as background effect and notice effect will be different.

Next, FIG. 43 is a subroutine showing a battle effect execution feasibility determination process that is called and executed in the process of step 3050 of FIG. 42. First, in step 3052, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the number of high-securing obstacle games is 4 or more. In the case of Yes in step 3052, in step 3054, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the condition device related to the game is a BB combination. In the case of Yes in step 3054, in step 3056, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S wins with a predetermined probability (1/2 in this example). Lottery) is executed. Next, in step 3058, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the lottery for executing the battle effect executed in step 3056 has been won. In the case of Yes in step 3058, in step 3060, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game as a battle effect (win), and shifts to the next process (process of step 3006). On the other hand, if No in step 3058, in step 3062, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game to be an effect other than the battle effect, and shifts to the next process (process of step 3006). Here, the battle production is a continuous production executed over a plurality of games, and the battle production is won, that is, the battle production (winning) is executed, and the BB role is won and the AT lottery is performed. It is structured so that the winning is definite. The configuration related to the battle production is not limited to this, and even if the AT lottery is not won, if the BB role is won (after the end of the BB, the state shifts to the "low probability state" or the "high probability state". ) May be configured to perform a battle effect (victory).

If No in step 3054, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the condition device related to the game is a rare combination. Here, in this example, the rare roles are prize-C (cherry), prize-D (watermelon A), and prize-E (watermelon B), and the roles that can be won in duplicate with the BB role. It has become. That is, in the case of Yes in step 3064, where the player has the expectation that the rare combination is stopped and displayed at the same time as the BB combination, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is set in step 3066. , In this example, it is 1/3, which is lower than the predetermined probability in step 3056. ) Is executed. Next, in step 3068, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the lottery for executing the Gase Battle effect executed in step 3066 has been won. In the case of Yes in step 3068, in step 3070, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game as a battle effect (defeat), and shifts to the next process (process of step 3006). If No in step 3052, step 3064, or step 3068, in step 3072, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game to be an effect other than the battle effect, and the next process (process of step 3006). ). Here, the battle effect (defeat) may be configured so that it can be executed even in the "normal section".

In this way, when the number of high-securing obstacle games is a predetermined number or more, for example, 4 or more, continuous production such as a battle production can be executed over a plurality of games, while the number of high-securing obstacle games is predetermined. If it is less than the number, for example, if it is less than 4, it is configured not to execute a continuous effect such as a battle effect, so that the "low probability state" is entered even though the continuous effect is being executed. It is possible to prevent the advantageous section indicator YH from turning off due to the transition of ("normal section" is set), and the battle effect is performed only when the advantageous section indicator YH can be lit until the battle effect is completed. By executing this, it is possible to make the game machine user-friendly without impairing the player's expectation for winning the BB.

In addition, when the role of rare is won, it is configured so that continuous production such as battle production (defeat) can be executed, so the execution frequency of battle production can be guaranteed and the game always proceeds with a sense of expectation. Can be done.

Next, FIG. 44 is an example of a stay stage determination table. The stay stage determination table shown in FIG. 44 is an excerpt of only a part. The stay stage determination table shown in FIG. 44 is used when the game is in the "low probability state" and when the game is in the "high probability state" and the number of high secured obstacle games is 4 or more. It consists of three types: a table and a table used when the game is in a "high probability state" and the number of high-securing obstacle games is 3 or less.

In the stay stage determination table used when the game is in the "low probability state", the relationship between the current stay stage, the state related to the AT of the next game, the stay stage of the skeleton game, and the corresponding number is It is stipulated. In the case of "low probability state", the current stay stage consists of two types of production stages, the desert stage and the city stage, and the transition stages are the desert stage, the city stage, the conference room stage, and the cave stage. It consists of four types of production stages. There are three states related to the AT of the next game: a "low probability state", a "normal BB internal medium game", and a "high probability state".

When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state" or "normal BB internal medium game", 0 to 979 is assigned as the number of units when the desert stage is maintained in the game. ing. In addition, when the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state" or "normal BB internal medium game", the number of placements when shifting from the desert stage to the city stage in the game is 980 to 999 is assigned.

Furthermore, if the current stay stage is the city stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state" or "normal BB internal medium game", the number of placements when shifting from the city stage to the desert stage in the game is 0 to 0. 19 is assigned. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state" or "normal BB internal medium game", 20 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when the city stage is maintained in the game. ing.

Further, when the current stay stage is the desert stage and the stage shifts to the "high probability state" in the next game, 0 to 249 is assigned as the number of units when the desert stage is maintained in the game. When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state", 250 to 499 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the desert stage to the city stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state", 500 to 749 are assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the desert stage to the conference room stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state", 750 to 999 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the desert stage to the cave stage in the game.

When the current stay stage is the city stage and the game shifts to the "high probability state" in the next game, 0 to 249 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the city stage to the desert stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state", 250 to 499 is assigned as the number of units when the city stage is maintained in the game. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state", 500 to 749 are assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the city stage to the conference room stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the game shifts to the "high probability state" in the next game, 750 to 999 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the city stage to the cave stage in the game.

In the stay stage determination table used when the game is in the "high probability state" and the number of highly secured obstacle games is 4 or more, the relationship between the current stay stage, the stay stage of the skeleton game, and the number of placements is defined. Has been done. The current stay stage and the transition stage consist of four types of production stages: the desert stage, the city stage, the conference room stage, and the cave stage.

If the current stay stage is the desert stage and the desert stage is maintained in the game, 0 to 879 is assigned as the number. The current stay stage is the desert stage, and 880 to 929 are assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the desert stage to the city stage in the game. The current stay stage is the desert stage, and 930 to 959 is assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the desert stage to the conference room stage in the game. The current stay stage is the desert stage, and 960 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the desert stage to the cave stage in the game.

The current stay stage is the city stage, and 0 to 879 is assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the city stage to the desert stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the city stage is maintained in the game, 880 to 929 are assigned as the number of units. If the current stay stage is the city stage and the game shifts from the city stage to the conference room stage, 930 to 959 are assigned as the number of units. The current stay stage is the city stage, and 960 to 999 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the city stage to the cave stage in the game.

The current stay stage is the conference room stage, and 0 to 49 is assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the conference room stage to the desert stage in the game. The current stay stage is the conference room stage, and 50 to 99 are assigned as the number of units when the game shifts from the conference room stage to the city stage. When the current stay stage is the conference room stage and the conference room stage is maintained in the game, 100 to 949 are assigned as the number of units. The current stay stage is the conference room stage, and 950 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the conference room stage to the cave stage in the game.

The current stay stage is the cave stage, and 0 to 49 is assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the cave stage to the desert stage in the game. The current stay stage is the cave stage, and 50 to 99 are assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the cave stage to the city stage in the game. The current stay stage is a cave stage, and 100 to 199 are assigned as the number of units when transitioning from the cave stage to the conference room stage in the game. If the current stay stage is a cave stage and the cave stage is maintained in the game, 200 to 999 are assigned as the number of units.

In the stay stage determination table used when the game is in the "high probability state" and the number of highly secured obstacle games is 3 or less, the current stay stage, the state related to the AT of the next game, and the stay stage of the skeleton game are displayed. , The relationship with the number is specified. The current stay stage and the transition stage consist of four types of production stages: the desert stage, the city stage, the conference room stage, and the cave stage. There are three states related to AT in the next game: "high probability state", "advantageous BB internal medium game", and "low probability state".

When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state" or the "advantageous BB internal medium game", 0 to 979 is assigned as the number of units when the desert stage is maintained in the game. ing. If the current stay stage is the desert stage and you want to move to the "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game" in the next game, 980-999 is the number of places to move from the desert stage to the city stage in the game. Assigned.

If the current stay stage is the city stage and you want to move to the "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game" in the next game, 0 to 19 is the number of places to move from the city stage to the desert stage in the game. Assigned. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state" or the "advantageous BB internal medium game", 20 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when the city stage is maintained in the game. ing.

When the current stay stage is the conference room stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game", the number of placements when shifting from the conference room stage to the desert stage in the game is 0 to 0 29 is assigned. When the current stay stage is the conference room stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state" or the "advantageous BB internal medium game", the number of placements when shifting from the conference room stage to the city stage in the game is 30 to 59 is assigned. When the current stay stage is the conference room stage and the next game shifts to the "high probability state" or the "advantageous BB internal medium game", the number of units when the conference room stage is maintained in the game is 60 to 999. Assigned.

If the current stay stage is a cave stage and you want to move to a "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game" in the next game, 0 to 29 is the number of places to move from the cave stage to the desert stage in that game. Assigned. When the current stay stage is a cave stage and the next game shifts to "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game", the number of placements when shifting from the cave stage to the city stage in the game is 30 to 59. Assigned. When the current stay stage is a cave stage and the next game shifts to "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game", the number of placements when shifting from the cave stage to the conference room stage in the game is 60 to 99. Is assigned. When the current stay stage is a cave stage and the next game shifts to "high probability state" or "advantageous BB internal medium game", 100 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when the cave stage is maintained in the game. ing.

When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the game shifts to the "low probability state" in the next game, 0 to 499 is assigned as the number of units when the desert stage is maintained in the game. When the current stay stage is the desert stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state", 500 to 999 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the desert stage to the city stage in the game.

When the current stay stage is the city stage and the game shifts to the "low probability state" in the next game, 0 to 499 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the city stage to the desert stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the city stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state", 500 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when the city stage is maintained in the game.

When the current stay stage is the conference room stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state", 0 to 499 is assigned as the number of units when shifting from the conference room stage to the desert stage in the game. When the current stay stage is the conference room stage and the next game shifts to the "low probability state", 500 to 999 is assigned as the number of units when shifting from the conference room stage to the city stage in the game.

When the current stay stage is a cave stage and the game shifts to the "low probability state" in the next game, 0 to 499 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the cave stage to the desert stage in the game. When the current stay stage is a cave stage and the next game shifts to a low probability state, 500 to 999 is assigned as the number of positions when shifting from the cave stage to the city stage in the game.

Thus, in the "low probability state", two stages, a desert stage or a city stage, can be selected (step 3012 in FIG. 42). On the other hand, in the "high probability state", four stages, a desert stage, a city stage, a conference room stage, and a cave stage, can be selected (step 3008 in FIG. 42). In other words, four stay stages can be selected in the "advantageous section", while two stay stages can be selected in the "normal section", and can be selected in the "normal section". The stay stage of 2 can also be selected in the "advantageous section". With this configuration, even in the "normal section" where you cannot expect to win the AT lottery, by selecting the stay stage that can be the stay stage in the "advantageous section", you will not get bored even in the "normal section". You can advance the game machine. In addition, when shifting from the "high probability state" to the "low probability state", that is, when the "advantageous section" changes to the "normal section", the "normal section" is selected at the stage of the "advantageous section". By selecting the production stage, it is difficult for the player to determine the transition from the "advantageous section" to the "normal section", and the game can be continued while maintaining a sense of expectation.

A part of the production stage selected in the "normal section" overlaps with the production stage selected in the "advantageous section" (a production stage that can be selected in the "normal section" but is not selected in the "advantageous section". You may have).

In addition, the stay stage determination table used when the number of high-secured obstacle games is 4 or more and the stay stage determination table used when the number of high-secured obstacle games is 3 or less are different, and the number of high-secured obstacle games is increased. When the number of games decreases (3 games or less), do not shift to a stay stage with high expectations, which is a "advantageous section" than the current stay stage (for example, desert stage → conference room stage). By configuring it, it is possible to prevent the player from being discouraged because the "normal section" is reached with a small number of games even though the stage has shifted to a stay stage with higher expectations. The stay stages are in the order of "desert stage, town stage, cave stage, conference room stage" from those with low expectations (difficult to select in "advantageous section"), which are "advantageous sections".

The composition of the stay stage is not limited to that of this example, and what can be suggested by the stay stage is selected as the "advantageous section", the expectation, and the expectation of winning the AT lottery, and the BB. It may be configured to suggest a certain degree of expectation. As an example, the stay stage can be changed in the game in which the BB role or the rare role is won (when the AT lottery is won by the BB role and when the AT lottery is not executed by winning the single rare role. (Including and), the expectations of winning the AT lottery will differ depending on the stage of stay that has been transferred, and the expectations will be lower in the order of "desert stage, city stage, cave stage, conference room stage". It is also possible to configure so that the expectation of winning the BB role differs depending on the transitioned stay stage, and configure in the order of "desert stage, city stage, cave stage, conference room stage" in ascending order of expectation. Good (for example, when moving to the conference room stage, it is definite that the BB internal winning or the AT lottery has been won, etc.).

Next, FIG. 45 is a subroutine showing an effect determination process during AT that is called and executed in the process of step 3100 of FIG. 42. First, in step 3102, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the number of AT remaining games is 3 games or less. In the case of Yes in step 3102, in step 3104, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not it is the AT final game. In the case of Yes in step 3104, in step 3106, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the continuous lottery has been won. In the case of Yes in step 3106, in step 3108, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S continuously incites the effect related to the game (success) (AT continues to set the initial value in the AT counter M60, in other words. Then, it is definite that the AT continues to set the initial value to the AT counter M60. Instead, the state related to the AT of the next game is determined to be the "AT in progress state" or the "recoverable / non-recoverable effect effect state"), and the process proceeds to step 3126. Here, when the continuous lottery is won, the AT continuous fanning effect (success) and the AT continuous fanning effect (failure) are determined at a ratio of 4: 1. That is, in the present embodiment, even if the continuous lottery is won, the AT continuous fanning effect (failure) may be executed, and in such a case, it corresponds to the first game of the next set. In the next game to be played, the revival effect (success) will be executed, and the player feels as if he / she has won the revival lottery (actually, he / she has won the continuous lottery, and the main control board M. As the control on the side, it is the same as when the AT continuous fanning effect (success) is executed). With this configuration, it is rare to win the revival lottery in the "state for revival possibility production", but {win the lottery of 2320/65536 (in the case of setting 1) in one game}, but win the continuous production. By configuring so that the resurrection effect (success) can be executed even if the resurrection effect is executed, the rate at which the resurrection effect (success) is executed when the resurrection effect is executed can be increased, and the player expects the resurrection effect. You can enhance the feeling.

Further, in the case of No in step 3106, in step 3110, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game as the AT continuation fanning effect (failure), and proceeds to step 3126. If No in step 3104, in step 3112, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game to be the AT final stage effect, and proceeds to step 3126. Further, if No in step 3102, in step 3114, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not it is the next game in which the AT continuous fanning effect (failure) is executed. In the case of Yes in step 3114, in step 3116, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S revives the effect related to the game (success) (similar to the resurrection effect (success) executed in the "state for effect of resurrection"). In this process, it is determined that the “AT in progress” state has continued), and the process proceeds to step 3126. On the other hand, even if No in step 3114, the process proceeds to step 3126.

Next, in step 3126, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the number of AT games has been added in the game. In the case of Yes in step 3126, in step 3028, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S adds an effect related to the game (an effect of notifying that the number of remaining AT games has been added, for example, "+50 GET" or the like. ), And the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2300). On the other hand, if No in step 3126, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines the effect related to the game to be an effect during AT (an effect executed during AT such as "AT in progress"), and the next process ( The process proceeds to step 2300).

Next, FIG. 46 is a subroutine showing a resurrection possibility effect determination process that is called and executed in the process of step 3150 of FIG. 42. First, in step 3152, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the revival lottery has been won. In the case of Yes in step 3152, in step 3154, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S revives the effect related to the game (success) (the effect is the same as the effect executed in step 3116 described above. It is a production that notifies that the revival lottery has been won in the "recovery possibility production state", and in the next game, it shifts to the "AT in progress state" and the initial value is set in the AT counter M60). The determination is made, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2300). On the other hand, in the case of No in step 3152, in step 3156, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S did not win the revival lottery in the revival effect (failure) of the effect related to the game. It is an effect to notify the fact, and it is decided to shift to the "low probability state" in the next game), and the next process (process in step 2300) is started.

As mentioned above, the "recoverable / non-revivalable state" is also an advantageous section, that is, the continuous lottery is won in the AT final game (the final game in the "AT in progress") which is the "advantageous section". Even if it does not exist, the player confirms whether or not the advantageous section indicator YH is lit because it is configured to extend the "advantageous section" even in the next game "recoverable or not production state". It becomes difficult to determine whether or not the revival production is successful just by doing so, and the result of the revival production will be paid attention to. Further, as described above, the execution mode of the lottery regarding AT is different between the "AT in-progress state" and the "resurrection possibility / non-recovery effect state". That is, the execution mode of the lottery related to AT is different between the next game that wins the continuous lottery in which the resurrection effect (success) is executed and the game that wins the resurrection lottery in which the resurrection effect (success) is executed. ..

In addition, in this embodiment, in the next game in which the AT state is completed, one game is shifted to the "revival possibility production state", and the revival lottery is executed in the "revival possibility production state". By doing so, both the execution game of the resurrection effect (success) and the execution game of the resurrection effect (failure) are set as "advantageous sections", that is, by configuring the advantageous section indicator YH to be turned on, the effect of the effect is produced. Although it was prevented that it could be determined whether or not the AT was terminated without confirming the result, such a configuration may be configured as follows.
(1) The state related to AT is set to "AT in progress" even in one game in which the resurrection lottery is executed, the resurrection flag is turned on in one game in which the resurrection lottery is executed, and the resurrection is made in the game before the game in which the resurrection lottery is executed. By turning off the flag, a different lottery mode for AT is obtained. (2) It is configured not to execute the revival lottery, and the control on the main control board M side is configured to determine whether or not the "AT in progress state" ends depending on whether or not the continuous lottery is won. The execution timing of the continuous lottery is set to a game before the AT final game (one game before the AT final game, the first game of the running set, etc.). With such a configuration, a resurrection effect (success) and a resurrection effect (failure) can be executed as effects on the sub-control board S side in the final AT game. As an example of the production, "Pre-game of AT final game: AT continuation fanning (success)-> AT final game: Directing that the next set of AT will start", "Pre-game of AT final game: AT continuation fanning" Directing (continue to the next game) → AT final game: AT continuous fanning production (success) "," Game before AT final game: AT continuous fanning production (failure) → AT final game: resurrection production (success) "," AT The game before the final game: AT continuation fanning effect (failure) → AT final game: resurrection effect (failure), etc. may be executed. That is, the main control board M side determines whether or not the "AT in progress state" continues (the next set is executed) depending on whether or not the continuous lottery is won, and the effect on the sub control board S side is determined. It may be configured to execute the AT continuous fanning effect or the revival effect.
(3) In a game in which a resurrection effect (success) is executed, the effect is executed in the same manner as the resurrection effect (failure) until a predetermined timing, and the effect is that the resurrection effect (success) is performed from the predetermined timing. That is, it may be configured to notify the player that the AT will continue at the predetermined timing. In the case of such a configuration, the predetermined timing is as described above.
(1) This is the bet button operation timing (game medal insertion timing) related to the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed, and can be executed when the continuous lottery is won.
(2) It is the start lever operation timing related to the game in which the resurrection effect (success) is executed, and when the start lever operation timing is reached, the effect having the same effect mode as the resurrection effect (defeat) is not executed.
(3) Timing when the stop button, which is the first stop related to the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed, is pressed (timing when the first stop is turned on),
(4) Timing when the stop button, which is the first stop for the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed, is pressed and then the stop button is released (timing when the first stop is turned on → off),
(5) Timing at which the stop button, which is the second stop related to the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed, is pressed (timing when the second stop is turned on),
(6) Timing when the stop button is pressed and then the stop button is released (the timing when the second stop is turned on → off), which is the second stop related to the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed.
(7) Timing at which the stop button, which is the third stop related to the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed, is pressed (timing when the third stop is turned on),
(8) Timing when the stop button is pressed and then the stop button is released (the timing when the third stop is turned on → off), which is the third stop related to the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed.
Etc.
(9) Bet button operation timing (game medal insertion timing) related to the next game of the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed,
(10) Start lever operation timing related to the next game of the game in which the revival effect (success) is executed,
And so on. In addition, when it is configured to determine which of the various timings (1) to (10) to be set by lottery, after the timing when the stop button, which is the first stop, is pressed, , Even if neither the continuous lottery nor the resurrection lottery is won, the advantageous section indicator YH is continuously lit, so that the player presses the stop button which is the third stop and then the stop button. It is possible to play the game with a sense of expectation that the AT will continue until the timing when the AT is released or the start lever operation timing related to the next game in which the revival effect is executed.

<Processing at the time of starting lever operation> Next, FIG. 47 is a subroutine showing the processing at the time of starting lever operation that is called and executed in the processing of step 2300 of FIG. 41.

Next, in step 2302, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the state related to AT is the AT-during state. In the case of Yes in step 2302, in other words, when the state related to AT is the AT-in-AT state, in step 2350, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S reads and executes the AT-in-AT process when the start lever is operated, which will be described later. , Move to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, if No in step 2302, in other words, if the state related to AT is not in the AT state, in step 2304, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the state related to AT is a special precursor state. Is determined. In the case of Yes in step 2304, in other words, when the state related to AT is the special precursor state, in step 2400, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S reads out the special precursor process at the time of start lever operation, which will be described later. It is executed and moved to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, in the case of No in step 2304, in other words, when the state related to AT is not the "specialization precursor state", in step 2306, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has the state related to AT "additional specialization state". It is determined whether or not it is. In the case of Yes in step 2306, in other words, when the state related to AT is the "additional specialization state", in step 2450, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S performs the addition specialization processing when the start lever is operated, which will be described later. It is read and executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, in the case of No in step 2306, in other words, when the state related to AT is not the “additional specialized state”, in step 2307, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S changes the state related to AT to “inside the advantageous BB”. It is determined whether or not it is a "game". In the case of Yes in step 2307, in other words, when the state related to AT is "advantageous BB internal intermediate game", in step 2700, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is a subroutine of advantageous BB internal intermediate processing when the start lever is operated. Is called and executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

In the case of No in step 2307, in other words, if the state related to AT is not "advantageous BB internal middle game", in step 2308, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is whether or not the RT state is "RT1". To judge. In the case of Yes in step 2308, in other words, when the RT state is "RT1", in step 2310, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has no push order navigation in the state related to AT (push order navigation is It is a state related to AT that does not occur, and it is determined whether or not it is a "low probability state", a "normal BB internal game", a "normal BB state", or the like). In the case of Yes in step 2310, in other words, when the state related to AT is no push order navigation, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the avoidance command has been received in step 2312. As described above, the sub-control board S side receives the reverse push instruction command, the reverse push avoidance command, the forward push instruction command, and the forward push avoidance command, so that the effect related to the push order navigation cannot be executed. When the AT addition lottery is won, the main control board M side sends a command related to the AT addition lottery winning and the number of AT addition games to the sub control board S side, and the sub control board S side receives the command. In addition, the sub-control board S side may be configured to determine the execution timing and the effect mode of the effect related to the push order navigation.

In the case of Yes in step 2312, in other words, when the avoidance command is received, in step 2314, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays an image for avoiding establishment as a push order navigation display in the first numerical display mode group. Is displayed on the effect display device S40, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110). As described above, in the present embodiment, the AT counter value becomes 0 as the number of games elapses from the situation of "RT1" and "AT in progress state", so that the situation shifts to "RT1" and "low probability state". In that case (before the replay 04 is stopped and displayed), if the reverse push white 7 match replay or the forward push black 7 match replay is won, the number of AT games will not be added, so white seven or black seven will be selected. It is configured to navigate the push order that is not in a straight line. Further, when the number of games elapses from the situation of "RT1" and "AT in progress" and the AT counter value becomes 0, and the situation shifts to "RT1" and "low probability state", it is still an "advantageous section". In the game in which the push order bell is won, the push order navigation can be generated, but in the game in which the push order replay is won, the push order navigation may not be generated.

When the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is No in step 2308, No in step 2310, and No in step 2312, the CPUSC displays the effect image and the background image based on the state related to AT in step 2316, and then displays the effect image and the background image in step 2316. (Processing in step 2110).

<Processing during AT when operating the start lever>
Next, FIG. 48 is a subroutine showing a process during AT at the time of start lever operation, which is called and executed in the process of step 2350 of FIG.

Next, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S reads the information about the condition device related to the game in step 2352, confirms the winning / replay winning information related to the game in step 2354, and the instruction number in step 2356. Check the command related to. In this way, in the state related to AT where the push order navigation such as "AT in progress state" can be executed, the main control board M transmits a command related to winning / replay winning information to the sub control board S side, and "low". When sending the production group number in a state related to AT where push order navigation such as "probability state" is not executed (also applicable when the game section is "normal section"), it is not necessary to send the command related to the instruction number. good. Furthermore, the main control board M transmits the effect group number to the effect group number and the instruction number in the same manner as in the state related to the AT in which the push order navigation is not executed even if the state is related to the AT in which the push order navigation can be executed. Based on the command, the push order bell (or push order replay) may be won, and the correct push order may be grasped. For example, the push order navigation display when the push order bell is executed and the push order navigation display of the push order replay game are displayed in the same display mode group (for example, the push order is notified by a number and the display color related to the number is the same. ) Can be applied when it is configured to be displayed. Further, in such a configuration, the effect display device S40 is configured to display an effect image (for example, a character image) different from the push order navigation display when the push order navigation is executed, and the push order bell is used. It may be configured to display different production images when the push order navigation is executed and when the push order navigation is executed related to the push order replay game.

Next, in step 2358, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the condition device of the game is a push order bell. Here, the push order bell is one of the above-mentioned winning-A1 to winning-A6.

In the case of Yes in step 2358, in other words, when the condition device of the game is a push order bell, in step 2360, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has 6 selections of the push order bell as the push order navigation display. An image suggesting the correct pressing order of the pressing order of is displayed on the effect display device S40 in the first numerical display mode group. The push order is information in which each of the first stop button, the second stop button, and the third stop button is associated with the left stop button D41, the middle stop button D42, and the right stop button D43. For example, if you win the prize-A1 which is the push order bell, the number suggesting the push order corresponding to the push order "left → middle → right" that can obtain the maximum number of payouts is circled. Display in the display mode.

Next, in the case of No in step 2358, in other words, when the condition device of the game is not a push order bell, in step 2362, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines that the condition device of the game is a push order replay. It is determined whether or not it is. Here, the push order re-game is one of re-game-D1 to D3.

In the case of Yes in step 2362, in other words, when the condition device of the game is the push order replay, in step 2364, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the push order navigation as the push order replay. An image suggesting the correct pressing order among the three selection pressing orders is displayed on the effect display device S40. Here, since the push order has three choices, it is information that corresponds the first stop button to any one of the left stop button D41, the middle stop button D42, and the right stop button D43. For example, when the first stop button is the left stop button D41, only the number 1 is displayed as the push-order navigation display.

If No in step 2362, in other words, if the condition device of the game is a push order replay, in step 2366, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the avoidance command has been received. .. Here, the forward push avoidance command and the reverse push avoidance command are collectively referred to as an avoidance command. In the case of Yes in step 2366, in other words, when an avoidance command is received, in step 2368, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays an image for avoiding establishment as a push order navigation display in the first numerical display mode. The group is displayed on the effect display device S40.

Next, if No in step 2366, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the above-described process of step 2360, 2364 or 2368, and then displays the background image during AT on the effect display device S40 in step 2370.

Next, in step 2372, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the number of AT remaining games is 3 games or less. In the case of Yes in step 2372, in other words, when the number of AT remaining games is 3 games or less, in step S2374, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the number of AT remaining games in display mode B (display mode described later). It is displayed on the effect display device S40 in a display mode that is less conspicuous than A).

Next, in step 2376, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the forward push instruction command has been received. In the case of Yes in step 2376, in other words, when the forward push instruction command is received, in step 2378, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays an image for avoiding establishment as a push order navigation display. It is displayed on the effect display device S40 in the numerical display mode group.

If No in step 2376, or if the process in step 2378 is executed, in step 2380, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the reverse push instruction command has been received. In the case of Yes in step 2380, in other words, when the reverse push instruction command is received, in step 2382, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays an image for avoiding establishment as a push order navigation display. It is displayed on the effect display device S40 in the numerical display mode group.

The CPUSC of the sub-control board S shifts to the next process (process of step 2110) in the case of No in step 2380 or when the process of step 2382 is executed.

In the case of No in step 2372, in other words, when the number of AT remaining games is 4 or more, in step S2384, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the number of AT remaining games in display mode A (the above-mentioned display mode). It is displayed on the effect display device S40 in a display mode that is more conspicuous than B). Here, if there are four or more games, the display mode A is displayed, and if there are three games or less, the display mode B is displayed.

Next, in step 2386, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the forward push instruction command has been received. In the case of Yes in step 2386, in other words, when the forward push instruction command is received, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S corresponds to "left → middle → right" as the push order navigation display in step 2388. An image suggesting the pressing order to be pressed is displayed on the effect display device S40 as an image of an arrow.

If No in step 2386, or if the process in step 2388 is executed, in step 2390, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the reverse push instruction command has been received. In the case of Yes in step 2390, in other words, when the reverse push instruction command is received, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S corresponds to "right → middle → left" as the push order navigation display in step 2392. An image suggesting the pressing order to be pressed is displayed on the effect display device S40 as an image of an arrow.

The CPUSC of the sub-control board S shifts to the next process (process of step 2110) in the case of No in step 2390 or when the process of step 2392 is executed. In this way, when the number of remaining AT games is small, in other words, when the display of the number of remaining AT games is displayed in the display mode B, which is a more conspicuous display mode than the display mode A, the forward push instruction command or the reverse Even if the push instruction command is received, the effect of displaying "Aim for 7!" Is not executed along with the image of the arrow, and the white seven and black seven do not stop and display on the invalid line. It is configured to execute the push order navigation. With this configuration, in a situation where the number of AT remaining games is small, the number of AT remaining games is displayed in the display mode B, which is a display mode that encourages the player that the number of AT remaining games is small. Can be configured so as not to interfere with the visibility of the display of the number of remaining AT games in the display mode B by displaying an arrow image or "Aim for 7!". Similarly, in a situation where the number of remaining AT games displayed on the effect display device S40 is small, a continuous effect (for example, a state related to AT in which push order navigation can be executed) is encouraged to continue. , Battle effect) is also configured so that the arrow image and "Aim for 7!" Are not displayed during the execution of the battle effect so as not to interfere with the visibility of the battle effect. be able to. Further, with this configuration, even when the number of remaining AT games in the effect display device S40 becomes 0 and it is displayed that the battle effect is defeated and the "AT in progress state" ends, the battle effect is in progress. If a forward push instruction command or a reverse push instruction command has been received, the forward push instruction command or the reverse push instruction command or the reverse push instruction command or the reverse push instruction command or the reverse push instruction command is performed at the operation timing of the bet button D220 after the message that the "AT in progress state" is terminated is displayed. Notify the number of AT additional games based on the instruction command (based on winning of forward push black 7 replay or reverse push white 7 replay), that is, notify that the number of AT games has been added to the game that won the AT additional lottery. Instead, it can be configured to notify that the number of AT games has been added at a subsequent timing, which enhances the fun of the game.

<Specialized precursor processing when operating the start lever>
Next, FIG. 49 is a subroutine showing a special precursor process at the time of start lever operation, which is called and executed in the process of step 2400 of FIG. 47.

Next, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S reads the information about the condition device related to the game in step 2702, confirms the winning / replay winning information related to the game in step 2704, and in step 2706, the instruction number. Check the command related to. In this way, in the state related to AT where the push order navigation such as "AT in progress state" can be executed, the main control board M transmits a command related to winning / replay winning information to the sub control board S side, and "low". When sending the production group number in a state related to AT where push order navigation such as "probability state" is not executed (also applicable when the game section is "normal section"), it is not necessary to send the command related to the instruction number. good. Furthermore, the main control board M transmits the effect group number to the effect group number and the instruction number in the same manner as in the state related to the AT in which the push order navigation is not executed even if the state is related to the AT in which the push order navigation can be executed. Based on the command, the push order bell (or push order replay) may be won, and the correct push order may be grasped.

Next, in step 2708, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not a predetermined game (5 games) has elapsed since the transition to the advantageous BB internal middle game. In the case of Yes in step 2708, in other words, if a predetermined game (5 games) has not elapsed since the transition to the advantageous BB internal medium game, in step 2710, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is the game. Condition device determines whether or not it is a push order bell or a common bell. Here, the push order bell is one of the above-mentioned winning-A1 to winning-A6 and winning-B.

In the case of Yes in step 2710, in other words, if the condition device of the game is a push order bell or a common bell, in step 2712, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the push order bell as the push order navigation display. An image suggesting the correct pressing order among the six-choice pressing order is displayed on the effect display device S40 in the first numerical display mode group. The push order is information in which each of the first stop button, the second stop button, and the third stop button is associated with the left stop button D41, the middle stop button D42, and the right stop button D43. For example, if you win the prize-A4 push order bell, the number suggesting the push order corresponding to the push order "right → left → middle" that can obtain the maximum number of payouts is surrounded by a star. It is displayed in the same display mode. In the first number display mode group and the second number display mode group described above, the numerical values suggesting the push order may be displayed in different display mode groups. For example, the first number display mode group is a number. Can be displayed in blue, and the second number display mode group can display numbers in red and the like.

Next, in the case of No in step 2710 described above, in other words, when the condition device of the game is neither the push order bell nor the common bell, in step 2714, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is the condition of the game. The device determines whether or not it is a push order replay. Here, the push order re-game is one of re-game-D1 to D3.

In the case of Yes in step 2714, in other words, when the condition device of the game is the push order replay, in step 2716, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the push order navigation as the push order replay. An image suggesting the correct pressing order among the three selection pressing orders is displayed on the effect display device S40 in the first numerical display mode group. Here, since the push order has three choices, the information corresponds to the first stop button corresponding to any one of the left stop button D41, the middle stop button D42, and the right stop button D43. For example, when the first stop button is the left stop button D41 as the correct pressing order, the number "1" is displayed on the lower left side from the center of the effect display device S40, and the first stop button is the middle stop button D42. In the case of, the number "1" is displayed on the lower right side of the center of the effect display device S40, and when the first stop button is the right stop button D43, it is on the lower right side of the center of the effect display device S40. The number "1" is displayed as a push-order navigation display. In other words, the push order information is displayed at a position close to the stop switch corresponding to the reel to be stopped.

Next, in the case of No in step 2714 described above, in other words, when the condition device of the game is not a push order replay, in step 2718, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S received the command related to 7 replays. Judge whether or not. Here, the forward push instruction command, the reverse push instruction command, the forward push avoidance command, and the reverse push avoidance command are collectively referred to as a 7 replay command. In the case of Yes in step 2718, in other words, when a command related to 7 replays is received, in step 2720, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays an image for avoiding establishment as a push order navigation display as the first number. The display mode group is displayed on the effect display device S40.

Next, when the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the processes of steps 2712, 2716, and 2720 described above, or when No in step 2718, the background image during AT is displayed on the effect display device S40 in step 2722. The display is displayed, and in step S2724, the number of remaining AT games is displayed on the effect display device S40 in the display mode A, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

In the case of No in step 2708, in other words, when a predetermined game (5 games) has elapsed after shifting to the advantageous BB internal medium game, in step 2726, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is the effect display device S40. In, it is notified that the BB has been won (in this process, the push order navigation is not displayed), and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2110).

<Processing at the time of the first body stop reception>
Next, FIG. 52 is a subroutine showing the first processing at the time of receiving the body stop, which is called and executed in the processing of step 2500 in FIG. 41.

Next, in step 2502, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the push order navigation is being displayed in the game. In the case of Yes in step 2502, in other words, when the push order navigation is displayed, in step 2504, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has an operation of the stop button based on the correct push order as the first stop. Judge whether or not.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2504, in other words, when there is an operation of the stop button based on the correct pressing order as the first stop, in step 2506, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is displayed in the pressing order navigation display. The display related to the first stop is erased, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, in the case of No in step 2504, in other words, when there is no operation of the stop button based on the correct pressing order as the first stop, in step 2508, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is forward-pressed navigation or reverse. It is determined whether or not the push order navigation related to the push navigation is being displayed. Here, 7 replays are a general term for forward-push black 7-match replays and reverse-push white 7-match replays. In step 2508, in the case of Yes, in step 2510, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S darkens the push order navigation (continues to be darkened in the game), and moves to the next process (process of step 2110). Migrate.

If No in step 2508, in other words, if the push order navigation related to 7 replays is not being displayed, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S erases all the push order navigation displays in step 2512, and the push order fails. The effect is executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

<Processing at the time of receiving the second body stop>
Next, FIG. 53 is a subroutine showing the second processing at the time of receiving the body stop, which is called and executed in the processing of step 2550 of FIG.

Next, in step 2552, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the push order navigation is being displayed in the game. In the case of Yes in step 2552, in other words, when the push order navigation is being displayed, in step 2554, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the condition device related to the game is the push order bell. judge. In the case of Yes in step 2554, in other words, when the condition device related to the game is a push order bell, in step 2556, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is a stop button based on the correct push order as the second stop. Determine if there is an operation.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2556, in other words, when there is an operation of the stop button based on the correct pressing order as the second stop, in step 2558, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is the second stop in the pressing order navigation display. 2 The display related to the stop is erased, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, in the case of No in step 2556, in other words, when there is no operation of the stop button based on the correct pressing order as the second stop, in step 2560, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays all the pressing order navigation displays. It is erased, the push order failure effect is executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110).

Next, in the case of No in step 2552, in other words, when the push order navigation is not displayed, or in the case of No in step 2554, in other words, if the condition device related to the game is not the push order bell, immediately. , Move to the next process (process of step 2110).

<3rd production-related decision processing when the body is stopped>
Next, FIG. 54 is a subroutine showing the third effect-related determination process at the time of body stop, which is called and executed in the process of step 3200 of FIG.

Next, in step 3202, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the BB combination has won a prize. In the case of Yes in step 3202, in other words, when the BB combination wins, in step 3204, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S wins during non-AT (“low probability state” or “high probability state”). It is determined whether or not it is a BB role. In the case of Yes in step 3204, in other words, in the case of the winning BB combination during non-AT, in step 3206, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S refers to the BB start effect determination table during non-AT, and AT of the game. Based on the state and the BB combination, the BB start effect (the effect executed when the BB combination is won) is determined and executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2600).

Next, in the case of No in step 3204, in other words, in the BB role that was won during AT (“AT in progress”, “additional specialization state”, “specialization preparation state”, or “recoverable / non-recoverable production state”). If there is, in step 3208, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S refers to the BB start effect determination table during AT, determines and executes the BB start effect based on the state related to AT and the BB combination of the game, and then executes the next The process shifts to the process (process of step 2600).

Next, in the case of No in step 3202, in other words, when the BB combination does not win, in step 3210, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines and executes the effect based on the effect executed in the game. The process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2600).

The non-AT BB start effect determination table shown on the lower left of FIG. 54 is a table for determining the effect at the start time of the BB in the non-AT state. The non-AT BB start effect determination table is a table for defining the relationship between the type of BB combination, the state related to AT, the type of BB start effect, and the probability (distribution). There are two types of BB roles: BB with a setting difference (Type 1 BB-B) and BB without a setting difference (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C). There are two types of states related to AT: "normal BB internal medium game" and "advantageous BB internal medium game". There are three types of BB start production: normal production, high-expectation production, and premier production. It should be noted that, depending on the type of BB start effect in the BB won during non-AT, the degree of expectation to shift to the "AT in progress state" after the end of BB is configured to differ, and the one with the lowest degree of expectation is configured to be "normal effect". → High expectation production → Premier production ”.

When the BB combination is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to the AT of the game is a normal BB internal game, the probability that the BB start effect will be a normal effect is 179/256. .. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to the AT of the game is "normal BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect will be a high expectation effect is 77. / 256. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "normal BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect will be the premier effect is 0/256. Is.

When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect will be a normal effect is 179/256. Is. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect will be a high expectation effect is 77. / 256. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect will be the premier effect is 0/256. Is.

When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "normal BB internal medium game", the BB start effect is the normal effect. The probability is 179/256. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "normal BB internal medium game", the BB start effect is a high expectation effect. The probability of becoming is 77/256. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "normal BB internal medium game", the BB start effect becomes the premier effect. The probability is 0/256.

When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the BB start effect is the normal effect. The probability is 67/256. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the BB start effect is a high-probability effect. The probability of becoming 157/256 is. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the BB start effect becomes the premier effect. The probability is 32/256.

In the "normal section", even if you win the BB without setting difference (1st class BB-A and 1st class BB-C) or the BB with setting difference (1st class BB-B), the premiere production Is not selected, and it is stipulated that the normal effect is more likely to be selected than the high-expectation effect.

Even in an advantageous section, if a BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference is won, the premier production is not selected, and there is a possibility that the normal production is selected rather than the high expectation production. It is set to be high.

If it is an "advantageous section" and the BB without setting difference (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) is won, the premier production may be selected. With this configuration, by selecting the premier production, it is confirmed that by winning the setting difference BB, it will shift to the "AT in progress state" after the setting difference BB ends. Can be shown to the player. In addition, if it is an "advantageous section" and a BB with no setting difference (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) is won, there is a high possibility that a high-expectation effect will be selected rather than a normal effect. (It is less likely that a normal production will be selected). By doing so, the player can infer whether or not the AT will be started after the end of the BB by confirming the BB start effect, and can have a sense of expectation for winning the AT. In addition, the distribution of the BB start production related to the BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference that won in the "normal BB internal medium game" and the setting differenceless BB that won in the "normal BB internal medium game" The distribution is the same as the distribution of the BB start effect related to Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C). In addition, it is not limited to this, and the distribution of the BB start production related to the BB (Type 1 BB-B) with the setting difference that won the prize in the "normal BB internal medium game" and the "normal BB internal medium game" The distribution of the BB start effect related to the winning BB without setting difference (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) may be different, and by configuring in that way, the BB start related to BB with setting difference It can be configured so that the distribution differs depending on whether it is an effect or a BB start effect related to a BB with no setting difference.

The BB start effect determination table during AT shown in the lower right of FIG. 54 is a table for determining the effect at the start time of BB during AT. The BB start effect determination table during AT is also a table for defining the relationship between the type of BB combination, the state related to AT, the type of BB start effect, and the probability (distribution). There are two types of BB roles: BB with a setting difference (Type 1 BB-B) and BB without a setting difference (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C). The state related to AT is one type of "advantageous BB internal medium game". There are two types of BB start effects, one that can be added and the other that cannot be added. The additional effect is an effect that suggests that the AT additional lottery can be executed during the execution of the BB, and the non-addable effect is an effect that suggests that the AT additional lottery is not executed during the execution of the BB. For the BB won during AT, there is no element of whether or not to win the AT lottery, and whether or not the AT addition lottery is executed may differ depending on the type of BB. In addition, during AT, there is a setting difference in which the AT addition lottery is not executed. Even in the BB, the game medal can be obtained and the BB to be executed is in the AT which is advantageous to the player after the end of the BB, so that the BB to be executed is the AT addition lottery. Is configured to clearly inform whether or not is executed. Specific examples will be described in detail below.

When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect can be added is 0 /. It is 256, and the addable effect is not executed. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-B) with a setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the probability that the BB start effect cannot be added is 256 /. It is 256, and the effect that cannot be added is always executed. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the BB start effect can be added. The probability of becoming is 256/256, and the effect that can be added is always executed. When the BB role is BB (Type 1 BB-A and Type 1 BB-C) with no setting difference and the state related to AT of the game is "advantageous BB internal medium game", the BB start effect cannot be added. The probability of becoming is 0/256, and the non-additional effect is not executed.

<Processing at the time of the 3rd body stop reception>
Next, FIG. 55 is a subroutine showing the third processing at the time of receiving the body stop, which is called and executed in the processing of step 2600 of FIG.

Next, in step 2602, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the push order navigation is being displayed in the game. In the case of Yes in step 2602, in other words, when the push order navigation is being displayed, in step 2604, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the condition device related to the game is the push order bell. judge. In the case of Yes in step 2604, in other words, when the condition device related to the game is a push order bell, in step 2606, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is a stop button based on the correct push order as the third stop. Determine if there is an operation.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2606, in other words, when there is an operation of the stop button based on the pressing order of the correct answer as the third stop, in step 2608, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S produces a successful pressing order effect. "GET!" Is displayed on the display device S40. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 2606, in other words, when there is no operation of the stop button based on the correct pressing order as the third stop, in step 2610, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S performs the "GET" of the pressing order success effect. ! ”Is not displayed.

If No in step 2602 described above, in other words, if the push order navigation is not displayed, if No in step 2604, in other words, the condition device related to the game is not a push order bell, or step 2608 or 2610. In step 2612, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not a command related to the number of AT-added games (command set in step 1517) has been received from the main side. As described above, the main control board M transmits a command indicating the number of remaining AT games to the sub control board S, and the sub control board S calculates the difference from the command indicating the number of remaining AT games received last time. It is possible to determine whether or not the number of AT games has been added and the number of AT games added, and to display the number of AT games added.

Next, in the case of Yes in step 2612, in other words, when a command related to the number of AT games is received from the main side, in step 2614, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is the AT addition game on the effect display device S40. The number is displayed and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110). On the other hand, in the case of No in step 2612, in other words, when the command related to the number of AT games is not received from the main side, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is added to the AT on the effect display device S40 in step 2616. The process proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110) without displaying the number of games. Further, as a method of notifying the number of AT additional games, (1) all of the additional games are notified by the game, (2) a part of the additional games is notified by the game, and the remaining games are notified after the game. (3) The number of additional games is not notified in the game, and the games after the game (for example, when 7 replays are won, when the common bell is won (when the role that is not originally added), or a plurality of games are notified. After executing the game (continuous production), the operation of the bet button D220 and the operation of the start lever D50 of the game in which the number of remaining games of the effect display device S40 is "0" or the next game of the game in which the number of remaining games is "0". ) Can be notified.

In addition, when the common bell is won in the "addition specialization state", the number of AT addition games is not displayed even if the game is stopped according to the push order navigation (the AT addition lottery is performed in the common bell). No).

According to the rotating body type gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the period that is advantageous for the player in the gaming machine configured so that the advantageous section indicator YH lights up in the "advantageous section". Can be appropriately notified. In addition, if the continuation effect is won by providing the "state for effect of resurrection" and the resurrection effect (success) is executed thereafter, the state related to the AT of the game in which the resurrection effect (success) is executed is The advantageous section indicator YH is lit because it is in the "AT in progress state", while the revival effect (failure) is executed even when the revival effect (failure) is executed after the continuous effect is not won. By setting the state related to the AT of the game to be played as the "recoverable / non-recoverable effect state" and the state related to the AT as the "advantageous section", the advantageous section indicator YH is turned on. With this configuration, by visually recognizing the advantageous section indicator YH in the game that executes the revival effect, it is possible to configure it so that it is difficult to recognize whether the revival effect succeeds or fails. It is possible to secure a highly entertaining gaming machine in a gaming machine configured so that a period that is advantageous to the player can be appropriately notified.

In this example, if the BB combination is won in the "high probability state", the AT lottery can be won, and after the end of the BB, the game can be changed to the "AT in progress state". The configuration related to is not limited to the one in this example. It may be configured to shift to the "AT precursor state" as the state related to AT, and to shift to the "AT in progress state" by playing a predetermined number of games (for example, 10 games) in the "AT precursor state".

Next, FIG. 56 is a flowchart of the menu screen display control process according to the subroutine of step 7100 of FIG. 41 in the present embodiment. First, in step 7102, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the menu screen is hidden on the effect display device S40. Here, the menu screen is a screen that can be displayed on the effect display device SG by pressing the sub input button SB or the like, and the player selects from a plurality of items to check various settings and information on the gaming machine. It is a screen that can be used. As an example of the method of selecting and determining an item, operate the cross key SB2 (which has four buttons of an up button, a down button, a left button, and a right button) to move the cursor to a desired item. By operating the sub-input button SB, the currently selected item (where the cursor is) is determined, and the screen corresponding to the item is displayed. In this example, it is assumed that both the screen for selecting an item and the screen corresponding to the item displayed after determining the selected item are menu screens. Further, the menu screen may have a plurality of display modes. For example, the items that can be selected on the menu screen may be different depending on the game state, or the design of the background image may be different. In other words, they may be different. Even if there are differences, they are all referred to as menu screens.

<Items that can be selected on the menu screen>
An example of the items that can be selected on the menu screen is listed below.
(1) Volume adjustment: The volume output from the gaming machine may be adjusted so that the player can adjust the volume. For example, after displaying the screen corresponding to the volume adjustment, the right button of the cross key SB2 is operated to output. The volume may be increased, and the output volume may be decreased when the left button of the cross key SB2 is operated. (2) Light intensity adjustment: The light intensity (luminance) of various lamps controlled by the sub-control board S such as the LED lamp S10 (stop button lamp S60, bet button lamp S50) may be adjusted so that the player can adjust the light intensity. For example, if the screen corresponding to the light amount adjustment is displayed and then the upper button of the cross key SB2 is operated, the light amount (brightness) becomes stronger (brighter), and if the lower button of the cross key SB2 is operated, the light amount (brightness) becomes weaker. It may be configured to be (dark).
(3) Character customization: Characters that appear during the game (hero character, push order navigation voice, battle character, character that supports the game progress that is always displayed on the production display device S40, etc.) can be selected and changed. It may be configured, and after displaying the screen corresponding to the character customization, it is determined by moving the cursor to the character to be selected with the cross key SB2 and operating the sub input button SB.
(4) Reel arrangement table: The reel arrangement may be configured so that the reel arrangement can be displayed on the screen corresponding to the reel arrangement table.
(5) Dividend table: A payout table (a list of symbol combinations constituting a replay or a winning combination by displaying a stop) may be displayed on the screen corresponding to the payout table. When the payout table is divided into a plurality of screens and displayed, for example, the screen of the payout table may be switched between the left button and the right button of the cross key SB2.

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, in the case of Yes in step 7102, in step 7104, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the menu screen can be displayed. Here, the menu screen displayable state means that the menu screen is displayed when an operation that can display the menu screen (may be configured to be displayed over time) such as an operation of the sub input button SB is executed. As a specific example, it may be configured as follows.
(1) Game end timing (timing when the third stop button is turned on → off, display judgment timing, payout completion timing based on winning, game end processing, a command related to the game end is set or transmitted to the sub-control board S side. The game does not proceed from the timing, the timing when the sub-control board S side receives the command related to the end of the game, etc. (no new bet operation, no new automatic bet operation based on the stop display of the re-game, new start) The menu screen may be displayed when a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) elapses while the lever is not operated, the reel does not start rotating newly, etc. (until then, the sub input button SB is operated. But the menu screen is not displayed). The betting operation includes both the case where the bet button D220 is operated and the case where the game medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot D170 and the bet is made (automatic betting based on the stop display of the re-game). May be included in the betting operation).
(2-1) It may be configured so that the menu screen cannot be displayed during the execution of the game (the game medal is bet, the weight period until the start of reel rotation, and the reel is rotating).
(2-2) The menu screen may be displayed in a state in which the menu screen can be displayed during the execution of the game (such as when a game medal is bet).
(3) During the execution of a predetermined effect (during the execution of the effect of notifying whether or not the bonus has been won, during the execution of the continuous effect executed over a plurality of games, the effect of notifying whether or not the lottery has been won by adding the number of AT games. , Etc.) may be configured so that the menu screen can be displayed.
(4) It may be configured so that the menu screen cannot be displayed while the re-game combination is stopped and displayed.
In order to make it easier for the player to recognize that the menu screen can be displayed, the sub input button SB (LED provided inside the sub input button SB) is displayed when the menu screen can be displayed. It may be configured to blink.

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, in the case of Yes in step 7104, in step 7106, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the sub-input button SB has been operated. In this example, the operation of displaying the menu screen is the operation of the sub-input button SB, but the operation of displaying the menu screen may be changed, or the operation of displaying the menu screen may be configured to have a plurality of operations. .. In the case of Yes in step 7106, in step 7108, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the menu screen on the effect display device S40. Next, in step 7109, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops the standby timer (the timer for measuring the time from the game end timing to the standby screen described later) to clear the timer value to zero. Next, in step 7110, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the standby timer timing flag (a flag that is turned on when the standby timer is timing). Next, in step 7111, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is a menu standby timer (a timer for measuring the time for transitioning from the menu screen to the standby screen described later, and is an initial value at the timing when the menu screen is started to be displayed. Is set) to a predetermined time B (in this example, it is 300 seconds, which is longer than the predetermined time A described later), and the timer is started. Next, in step 7112, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the menu standby timer timing flag (the flag that is turned on when the menu standby timer is timing), and the next process (process in step 7200). Move to.

Further, in step 7114, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the menu screen end condition is satisfied. The menu screen end condition is a condition for ending the display of the menu screen, in other words, switching the screen (image) displayed on the effect display device S40 from the menu screen to another screen (image), and is a specific example to be satisfied. May be configured as follows.
(1) It may be configured to be satisfied when there is a new bet operation, a new start lever operation, or a new reel rotation start.
(2) In a situation where the menu screen is continuously displayed, it may be configured to be satisfied when a predetermined time (300 seconds, which is the predetermined time B in this example) has elapsed from the start of displaying the menu screen.
(3) It may be configured to be satisfied by selecting and deciding a predetermined item on the menu screen and executing a predetermined operation on the screen corresponding to the predetermined item. For example, the cursor is placed on the volume adjustment item. By operating the sub input button SB, the screen corresponding to the volume adjustment is displayed. After adjusting the volume to the desired level by operating the cross key SB2, select by operating the sub input button SB again. The volume is set to the medium size, the display of the menu screen ends, and the screen before the menu screen is displayed (sometimes called a normal screen) is displayed.

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, in the case of Yes in step 7114, in step 7116, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the image displayed on the effect display device S40 before the menu screen is displayed. As an example, when the screen where the main character is walking in the forest is displayed and the menu screen is displayed by operating the sub input button SB, when the menu screen display ends, it will be displayed again. The screen where the hero is walking in the forest will be displayed. Next, in step 7118, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops the menu standby timer and clears it to zero. Next, in step 7120, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the menu standby timer timing flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 7200).

If No in step 7114, the CPUSC of the sub control board S determines in step 7122 whether or not the sub input button SB or the cross key SB2 has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 7122, in step 7124, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S resets the predetermined time B (300 seconds in this example) to the menu standby timer, and shifts to the next process (process of step 7200). do. Even if No in step 7104, step 7106, or step 7122, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 7200). As described above, in the present embodiment, when the sub input button SB or the cross key SB2 is operated while the menu screen is displayed, the menu standby timer is set to the predetermined time B (300 in this example). Seconds) are reset, in other words, the time until the standby screen is displayed is measured again from the beginning. In this example, two timers, a standby timer and a menu standby timer, are used as timers related to the display of the standby screen, but the present invention is not limited to this, and only one timer related to the display of the standby screen is used. It may be configured to be used. Specifically, only the standby timer is used as the timer related to the display of the standby screen, and the predetermined time A (180 seconds) set in the above-mentioned standby timer and the predetermined time B (300 seconds) set in the menu standby timer are waited for. It may be configured to be set in the timer. As a specific example, the third stop button is turned on and off, the standby timer is set to the predetermined time A (180 seconds), and then the sub input button SB is operated under the condition that the timer value of the standby timer is 100 seconds. When the menu screen is started to be displayed, the standby timer may be configured to set a predetermined time B (300 seconds).

Next, FIG. 57 is a flowchart of the standby screen display control process according to the subroutine of step 7200 of FIG. 41 in the present embodiment. First, in step 7202, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the standby screen is hidden. Here, the standby screen is a screen that can be displayed on the effect display device SG when it is determined that the game has not been executed for a predetermined time (the game has not progressed), and the effect executed on the gaming machine. The moving image related to the story is repeatedly played back, the message "Power saving" is displayed, and the logo mark related to the gaming machine manufacturer is displayed. In this example, the condition for displaying the menu screen described above requires the operation by the player, while the condition for displaying the standby screen does not require the operation by the player.

In the case of Yes in step 7202, in step 7204, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the standby timer timing flag (the flag that is turned on when the standby timer, which will be described later, is timing) is off. do. In the case of Yes in step 7204, in step 7206, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the game end timing has been reached. In this process, the timing at which the third stop button is turned from on to off is set as the game end timing. In the case of Yes in step 7206, in step 7208, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is a standby timer (a timer for measuring the time from the end of the game to the standby screen, and the initial value is set at the timing when the game ends. The timer is started by setting a predetermined time A (in this example, 180 seconds, which is shorter than the predetermined time B described above). Next, in step 7210, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the standby timer timing flag and proceeds to step 7212. In the present embodiment, the condition for executing the processes of step 7208 and step 7210 is that the game end timing has been reached, but in addition to this, the sub input button SB is operated on the menu screen. Therefore, it may be a condition that the image displayed before the display of the menu screen is displayed (the display of the menu screen is finished).

Next, in step 7212, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the timer value of the standby timer has become 0. In the case of Yes in step 7212, in step 7214, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the standby screen on the effect display device S40, and the process proceeds to step 7216. Next, in step 7216, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops the menu standby timer and clears it to zero. Next, in step 7218, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the menu standby timer timing flag. Next, in step 7220, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops the standby timer and clears to zero. Next, in step 7222, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the standby timer timing flag and proceeds to step 7224. In addition, even if No in step 7206, the process proceeds to step 7224.

Next, in step 7224, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the menu standby timer timing flag is on. If Yes in step 7224, in step 7226, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the timer value of the menu standby timer has become 0. In the case of Yes in step 7226, in step 7228, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the standby screen on the effect display device S40. Next, in step 7230, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops the menu standby timer and clears it to zero. Next, in step 7232, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the menu standby timer timing flag. Next, in step 7234, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops the standby timer and clears to zero. Next, in step 7236, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the standby timer timing flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 2110). Even if No in step 7224 or 7226, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2110).

Further, in the case of No in step 7204, in other words, when the standby timer timekeeping flag is on, in step 7238, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the standby timer timekeeping end condition is satisfied. do. Here, the standby timer timing end condition is a condition for ending the standby timer timing and clearing the timer value of the standby timer to zero, and there is a new bet operation and a new start lever operation. In addition, the standby timer timing end condition is such that the reel rotation is newly started. If Yes in step 7238, the process proceeds to step 7212, while if No in step 7238, the process proceeds to step 7216.

If No in step 7202, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines in step 7240 whether or not the standby screen end condition is satisfied. Here, the standby screen end condition is a condition for ending the display of the standby screen. In this example, there is a new bet operation, a new start lever operation, and a new reel rotation. Start, etc. are the conditions for ending the standby screen. It should be noted that the standby screen may be configured to be able to shift to the menu screen (display the menu screen). For example, the menu screen can be displayed by operating the sub input button SB in the situation where the standby screen is displayed. It may be configured as follows. Next, in step 7242, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the image displayed before the display of the standby screen on the effect display device S40, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 2110). As an example, in a situation where the screen where the hero is walking in the forest is displayed, when the standby screen is displayed because the A game has not progressed for a predetermined time, the hero is executed again by executing the betting operation. Will be displayed on the screen walking in the forest.

Next, FIG. 58 is a standby screen transition image diagram according to the present embodiment. First, in the case of (a), the menu screen is displayed because the sub-input button SB is operated while the menu screen can be displayed. After that, under the situation where the menu screen is displayed, 5 minutes (predetermined time B, 300 seconds) elapses without the operation of the sub input button SB or the bet button D220, and the standby screen is displayed. Next, in the case of (b), the game is executed, the player stops the reels, and all the reels are stopped by the stop operation of the third stop button, and the player presses the third stop button. Since 3 minutes (a predetermined time A and 180 seconds) have elapsed from the release timing and the sub input button SB and the bet button D220 have not been operated during that time, the standby screen is displayed. As described above, in this example, a predetermined time B elapses after the menu screen is displayed, and a predetermined time A elapses after the game is finished (after the third stop button is turned on → off). It is configured so that the standby screen can be displayed in, and the predetermined time B is longer than the predetermined time A.

<< Configuration of menu screen and standby screen applicable to this example >>
Here, the configurations related to the menu screen and the standby screen applicable to the spinning machine according to this example will be described in detail below, including the configuration of the present embodiment. It should be noted that the configurations listed below can be applied to all the above-described embodiments, and there is no problem in appropriately combining one or a plurality of configurations.

<Timekeeping start timing of standby timer>
As the timing to start timing by setting the initial value in the standby timer that measures the time until the standby screen is displayed, (1) the third stop button as the final stop operation (stop corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) The timekeeping starts from the timing when the button) is turned on and then turned off, (2) the timekeeping starts from the execution timing of the display judgment, (3) the timekeeping starts from the payout completion timing based on the winning, and (4) the game. As the end process, the time is started from the timing when the command related to the end of the game is set or transmitted to the sub control board S side. (5) The time is started from the timing when the command related to the end of the game is received by the sub control board S side. You may. Further, a predetermined time A (a timer value set in the standby timer, for example, 180 seconds) may be set as an initial value.

<Timekeeping start timing of menu standby timer>
As the timing to start timing by setting the initial value in the menu standby timer that measures the time until the menu screen is displayed, the timing is configured to start from the timing when the menu screen is displayed by operating the sub input button SB. You may. Further, a predetermined time B (a timer value set in the menu standby timer, for example, 300 seconds) may be set as an initial value. The predetermined time B set in the menu standby timer is longer than the predetermined time A (timer value set in the standby timer, for example, 180 seconds) set in the standby timer described above.

<Configuration related to sub-input buttons>
It may be configured so that the initial value can be reset to the menu standby timer when the menu standby timer is timing. For example, operating the sub input button SB or the cross key SB2 while the menu screen is displayed. Therefore, the menu standby timer may be configured to set a predetermined time B (a timer value set in the menu standby timer, for example, 300 seconds), which is an initial value. As an example, when the menu screen is started to be displayed, 300 seconds is set in the menu standby timer to start timing, and 100 seconds later, the cross key SB2 is pressed under the condition that the timer value of the menu standby timer is 200 seconds. The menu standby timer may be configured to reset 300 seconds by the operation. In addition, the menu screen can be started to be displayed by operating the sub input button SB, and the menu screen is being displayed (the screen is displayed by operating the sub input button SB or the cross key SB2 after starting the display of the menu screen. By operating the cross key SB on the transition destination screen to which is transitioned to (the screen of the transition destination may also be the menu screen), the initial value may be reset to the menu standby timer, or the menu screen is being displayed (menu). By operating the sub input button SB or the cross key SB2 after the screen is started to be displayed, the screen of the transition destination to which the screen has transitioned may also be the menu screen) by operating the sub input button SB or the cross key SB. The menu standby timer may be configured so that the initial value can be reset.

<Configuration related to stop button>
In the situation where the standby timer is timing, the third stop button (stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off as the final stop operation, and then the bet operation is not executed. The stop button (left stop button, middle stop button, right stop button) may be operated depending on the situation, or the standby timer may be configured not to reset the initial value. As an example, as the final stop operation, the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off, 180 seconds is set in the standby timer, and the timer starts counting. After that, when the bet operation is not executed and the timer value of the standby timer is 100 seconds, even if the stop button is operated, the timer value of the standby timer is not newly reset and the timer value is 100 seconds. It may be configured to remain as is.

<Structure related to betting operation>
When the third stop button (stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off as the final stop operation in the situation where the standby timer is timing, and then the bet operation is executed ( When betting is made by operating the bet button D220, or when a game medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot D170 and bet is made), the time counting of the standby timer is stopped and the timer value is cleared to zero. That is, in the situation where the standby timer is timing, the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off as the final stop operation, and then the bet operation is executed. , If the other operations are not executed, the standby screen may not be displayed over time. In addition, in such a configuration, the standby screen is not displayed due to the passage of time from the betting operation, but the volume of the sound being output when a specific time (for example, 100 seconds) has passed from the betting operation. May be configured to be 0 or smaller. With this configuration, the number of remaining game medals is less than the specified number (for example, 3) (for example, 1), and the remaining 1 game medal is bet (for example, the bet button is operated). When the game is finished, or when the player finishes the game with less than the specified number of game medals left in the credit (no bet is placed), the bet button is used when the clerk of the game hall cleans the game machine. Even if you operate and bet, the sound will not be output at an unintended volume.

<Display conditions for standby screen>
The standby screen may be displayed on condition that the timer value of the decrement timer (in this example, the standby timer and the menu standby timer) related to the display of the standby screen has changed from "1 to 0". With this configuration, when a bet operation is executed or some abnormality occurs in the timer measurement, the timer value reaches "0" without going through "1" like "20 → 0". Even when this is done (when zero is cleared), the standby screen is not displayed, and it is possible to prevent the display of the standby screen unintentionally (after that, the timer value is reset and becomes "1 → 0". It may be configured to display a standby screen in case of a timer). A flag for displaying the standby screen may be provided so that the standby screen is displayed when the flag is turned on.

<Structure related to payment button>
In the situation where the standby timer is timing, the third stop button (stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off as the final stop operation, and then one or more credits exist. In the situation, when the settlement of credits is executed by operating the settlement button, a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) has elapsed from the operation timing of the settlement button, or the timing when the settlement of credits is completed (the last game medal is The standby screen may be displayed at the timing of return to the discharge port D240).

<Configuration related to setting key switch>
As the final stop operation, the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) was turned on and then turned off, and then the setting key switch was turned off → on while the power was on. The standby screen may be displayed when a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) has elapsed from the timing. In addition, as the final stop operation, the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off, and then the front door is opened when the power is turned on. The setting key switch may be turned off → on, and then the standby screen may be displayed when a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) elapses from the timing when the front door is closed.

<Configuration when a predetermined error occurs>
As the final stop operation, the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off, and then a predetermined error regarding the main control board M side (for example, the game medal is the medal selector DS). The standby screen may be displayed when a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) elapses from the timing when the predetermined error is cleared.

<Structure related to front door>
As the final stop operation, the standby timer starts timing by turning on and then turning off the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel that is rotating to the end), and then the front door is opened and the open state. It may be configured to continue the timing of the standby timer even when the above is maintained. In addition, as the final stop operation, the standby timer starts timing by turning on and then turning off the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end), and then the front door is opened. After that, the standby timer may be configured to continue timing even when the front door is closed.

<Structure 1 during AT>
In a non-AT state (for example, the state related to AT is "normal game state"), the third stop button (stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off as the final stop operation. While the standby screen can be displayed when a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) elapses from the set timing, the final stop operation is performed in a situation where AT is in progress (for example, the state related to AT is "AT in progress state"). The standby screen is not displayed when a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) elapses from the timing when the third stop button (stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off. You may. Similarly, the standby screen may not be displayed even when a predetermined time A has elapsed from the end of the final stop operation even during the execution of the continuous effect, the execution of the bonus, and the ART. Also, in a situation where AT is in progress (for example, the state related to AT is "AT in progress"), the third stop button (corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is supported as the final stop operation in the game in which the push order navigation is executed. When a predetermined time A (for example, 180 seconds) elapses from the timing when the button is turned on and then turned off, the standby screen is not displayed, while AT (for example, the state related to AT is "AT in progress"). In this situation, as the final stop operation in the game in which the push order navigation was not executed, the third stop button (the stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) was turned on and then turned off for a predetermined time. The standby screen may be displayed when A (for example, 180 seconds) has elapsed.

<Structure 2 during AT>
When the menu screen is displayed by operating a sub-input button or the like in a situation during AT (for example, the state related to AT is "AT in progress"), (1) a predetermined time B (for example, 300 seconds) elapses. The standby screen can be displayed by You may.

<Structure 3 during AT>
In a non-AT state (for example, the state related to AT is "normal game state"), the third stop button (stop button corresponding to the reel rotating to the end) is turned on and then turned off as the final stop operation. A standby screen can be displayed when a predetermined time A (for example, 60 seconds) elapses from the set timing, and in a non-AT state (for example, the state related to AT is a "normal game state"). The menu screen is displayed, and the standby screen can be displayed when a predetermined time B (for example, 60 seconds) has elapsed from the start of the menu screen display. During AT (for example, the state related to AT is "AT in progress"". ), The menu screen is displayed, and when a predetermined time C (for example, 180 seconds) elapses from the start of the menu screen display, the normal screen during AT (the screen displayed before the menu screen is displayed) ) May be configured. That is, when the time values are compared, it may be configured so that "predetermined time A = predetermined time B <predetermined time C". The time values of the predetermined time A and the predetermined time B do not have to be the same, and the predetermined time C may be the longest.

<Other configurations 1>
The menu screen may be displayed by inserting a game medal from the medal insertion slot D170 while the standby screen is being displayed. The menu screen displayed by inserting a game medal from the medal insertion slot D170 while the standby screen is displayed is (1) the same screen as the menu screen displayed by operating the sub input button, (2). ) A screen displayed by executing a predetermined operation (selecting and determining a predetermined item) from the menu screen displayed by operating the sub input button, (3) By operating the sub input button It may be configured as a screen different from the displayed menu screen. Further, even if a game medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 while the menu screen is displayed by inserting the game medal from the medal insertion slot D170 while the standby screen is displayed, the menu screen continues to be displayed, while the sub If a game medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 while the menu screen displayed by operating the input button is displayed, the screen may be returned to the screen displayed before the menu screen is displayed. Also, if you insert a game medal from the medal slot D170 while the standby screen is displayed and bet, the menu screen will be displayed, and if you bet by operating the bet button while the standby screen is displayed, it will be displayed before the menu screen is displayed. A screen (a normal screen displayed during a game when a standby screen is displayed immediately after the power is turned on) may be displayed. In addition, when a game medal is inserted from the medal slot D170 while the standby screen is displayed and a bet is made, a menu screen is displayed, the standby screen is being displayed, and the number of game medals stored in the credit is three, which is the specified number. In the above situation, if you operate the bet button (for example, the max bet button that allows you to bet 3 cards with one operation) and bet, the screen that was displayed before the menu screen was displayed (the standby screen is displayed immediately after the power is turned on). If this is the case, the normal screen displayed during the game) is displayed, the standby screen is being displayed, and the bet button is displayed when the number of game medals stored in the credit is less than the specified number of three. (For example, a max bet button that allows three bets by one operation) may be operated to display a menu screen.

<Other configurations 2>
It has a plurality of display modes of the standby screen, and satisfies a predetermined condition (for example, by inputting a password on the menu screen, it may be a predetermined condition that the game is inherited from the previous game history). If not, the moving image for introducing the story is displayed as the standby screen, but if the predetermined conditions are satisfied, the moving image for introducing the character may be displayed as the standby screen. .. Further, in both the case where the predetermined condition is not satisfied and the case where the predetermined condition is satisfied, the story introduction and the character introduction can be displayed as a standby screen, but whether the predetermined condition is satisfied or not. Depending on whether or not, the frequency of displaying the story introduction or the character introduction may be different.

<Other changes>
In this example, the player has a first BB combination in which the first BB is executed by winning a prize, and a second BB combination in which the second BB, which is less profitable for the player than the first BB, is executed by winning the prize. It may be configured, and further, it may be configured so that the first BB combination and the second BB combination can be won in duplicate (providing the combination of "first BB + second BB"). With such a configuration, when "1st BB + 2nd BB" is won, the symbol combination (1st BB combination) corresponding to the highly profitable execution of the 1st BB can be stopped and displayed, and after the execution of the 1st BB is completed, the first The symbol combination (second BB combination) corresponding to 2BB may be stopped and displayed (the winning of the second BB is carried over even during the execution of the first BB). In addition, when the "1st BB + 2nd BB" is won, by executing the highly profitable 1st BB first, for example, in the situation where the closing time of the amusement park is approaching, the "1st BB + 2nd BB" is won. In that case, the low-profit second BB is executed first, the game hall is closed during the execution of the second BB, and the high-profit first BB cannot be executed and the game must be ended. Can be prevented.

Immediately after the operation of the first BB is completed, the winning of the second BB may be notified, or the winning of the second BB may be notified (after a predetermined game has elapsed without notification). If this is the case, the probability of winning the re-game may be increased during the incubation period after the operation of the first BB is completed. Further, when it is hidden, it may be configured to execute an effect suggesting the possibility of winning the second BB (for example, the effect display device S40 displays "BB consecutive villa chance time !!"). .. In such a configuration, if the second BB is not won after the end of the first BB, it will be definite that the effect is generated = the second BB is won, so only the first BB is won. However, it is preferable that the effect suggesting the possibility of winning the second BB is executed even after the operation of the first BB is completed (the effect mode after the end of the first BB is the same as that described above. For example, "BB Renso Chance Time !!" is displayed on the production display device S40). Further, even when only the first BB is won and the first BB is won again after the operation of the first BB is completed, the execution of the effect suggesting the possibility of winning the second BB is not stopped. You may. In addition, it may be configured to notify the winner of the first BB once after notifying the winner of the second BB (for example, the display of "BB consecutive villa chance time !!" → the display of "sorry" → the "first". 1BB is being won !! ”etc.). Further, when the second BB is hidden after the operation of the first BB is completed due to the duplicate winning during the AT, the effect display device S40 returns to the AT after the AT is being prepared or the like (after the return, the effect is on the effect). (Reducing the number of remaining games, etc.), but the internal reduction of the number of remaining games, etc. may continue to be suspended. When the first BB and the second BB are won in duplicate, the number of payouts from the start of the operation of the first BB to the end of the operation of the second BB may be accumulated and displayed on the effect display device S40 or the like.

In this example,
(1) When the first BB and the small winning combination A are elected in duplicate, the first BB is prioritized for stop control.
(2) When the first BB and the small winning combination B are elected in duplicate, the small winning combination B is prioritized for stop control.
That is, a small winning combination that gives priority to the stop control over the BB combination and a small winning combination that gives priority to the stop control of the BB combination may be provided.
(3) When the first BB and the small winning combination A are won in duplicate, when the small winning combination A wins, or a part of the symbol combinations corresponding to the small winning combination A (for example, at the time of the first stop, the first 2 When stopped), a notification corresponding to the small winning combination A (notification so that the small winning combination A can win a prize) is performed.
That is, the result of the first stop or the second stop (the stop mode after the execution of the first stop or the second stop) is to notify the first BB combination that normally gives priority to the stop control over the small combination A. Therefore, when the first BB combination cannot win a prize regardless of the position where the third stop is stopped (the small combination A can win a prize), the notification corresponding to the small combination A is performed. In addition, when the small winning combination A wins as a result of the game, the notification corresponding to the small winning combination A is performed. With this configuration, it is possible to execute the most advantageous notification to the player according to various game situations that change in the middle of the game, and the content notified by the effect display device S40 or the like and the actual content. It is possible to prevent the winning roles from being inconsistent.
(4) When the first BB and the small winning combination B are elected in duplicate, the notification corresponding to the small winning combination B is performed during the rotation of all reels.

Further, it may be configured to have a display (7-segment or the like) for displaying the number of the stop-displayed symbol (or symbol combination) controlled by the main control board M. In such a configuration, the effect display device S40 performs a contradiction effect that does not correspond to the stopped displayed symbol (or symbol combination). For example, when the replay-replay-replay symbol combination is stopped on the effective line, an effect that is likely to be output when the watermelon is won (for example, lighting the lamp in green) is executed.

In this example, an earphone jack that can output (cannot input) from the sub-control board S side may be provided and has the following features.
(1) The volume output from the earphone jack can be selected from a plurality of stages by using the sub-input button of the gaming machine.
(2) Even when playing a game using the earphone jack, when an error occurs, an error notification sound is output from the gaming machine at a predetermined volume (for example, it is output from a speaker provided in the gaming machine). ).
(3) When playing a game using the earphone jack, an error notification sound is output from the earphone jack at a predetermined volume other than the maximum volume even when the maximum volume is selected.

Further, during the AT state or the BB execution, the effect sound may be output from the game machine even when the game is played using the earphone jack. Further, the volume for when the earphone jack is not used and the volume for when the earphone jack is not used may be stored separately. Even if the earphone is pulled out, the volume for when using the earphone jack may not be cleared (initial value) immediately. For example, when there is no operation for 10 minutes, any volume may be cleared (to the initial value). However, when the earphone is still inserted, the volume for when using the earphone jack does not have to be cleared (to the initial value). The earphone jack is preferably provided in a place that does not interfere with the game (for example, when the earphone is inserted in the earphone jack, the earphone cord does not get entangled with the player's arm when trying to operate the start lever. ).

In this example,
(1) The winning probability of the re-game combination can be changed between after the end of BB when the number of acquisitions is more than a specific number and after the end of BB when the number of acquisitions is less than a specific number at the time of BB execution. It may be configured.
(2) There may be a plurality of RT states that shift when the RT state (for example, RT1) in which the winning probability of the re-game combination is relatively high ends. For example, it may be configured to shift to "RT0" after the end of "RT1", or may be configured to shift to "RT3" (a newly provided RT state).
(3) The RT state is changed when a predetermined winning combination is won. That is, the transition to the RT state is 1 with a prize.
There is a fixed probability of transition regardless of the condition device or winning, without a one-to-one correspondence (for example, the RT transition lottery is executed with a constant probability of each game).
(4) It is possible to install 0-card RT transition eyes, duplicate winning of 0-card combination, and duplicate winning of 0-card combination. That is, no matter which push order is stopped, no matter what position the stop operation is performed, a 0-card combination is provided, which is a combination in which one or more combinations do not win, and the RT state shifts by winning the 0-card combination. It may be configured to enable the duplicate winning of the 0-card combination and the 7-card combination or the duplicate winning of the 0-card combination A and the 0-card combination B. When the 0-card combination is won in duplicate, either the 0-card combination that shifts to RT or the 0-card combination that does not shift to RT may be won depending on the pushing order. It is also possible to win the 0-card combination and the BB combination in duplicate, and give priority to the 0-card combination to win the prize.

As in this example, the push order of the push order bell is 6 choices ("left → middle → right", "left → right → middle", "middle → left → right", "middle → right → left", There are 6 choices of "right → left → middle" and "right → middle → left"), and the push order of the push order replay is 3 choices (the first stop is 3 choices of left, middle, and right). If this is the case, the push order display on the push order display device D270 differs between the push order navigation display related to the push order bell and the push order navigation display related to the push order replay, in other words, 6-choice push order navigation. The display and the three-choice push order navigation display may be configured to be different. As an example, as the push order display related to 6 choices, "= 1" in the case of "left → middle → right", "= 2" in the case of "left → right → middle", "middle → left →" "= 3" for "right", "= 4" for "middle → right → left", "= 5" for "right → left → middle", "right → middle → left" In the case of, it is displayed as "= 6", and as the push order display related to the three choices, "= 7" when the first stop is on the left and "= 8" when the first stop is in the middle. , When the first stop is on the right, it may be configured to be displayed as "= 9".

In this example, the configuration may be as follows.
(1) The number of AT digested games, which is the number of games continuously digested in the "AT in progress state", "specialized precursor state", or "additional specialized state", is configured to be displayable on the effect display device, and AT is configured. If the number of remaining games becomes 0 and the game shifts from "AT in progress" to "normal game state" and then wins the AT lottery again within a specific game and shifts to "AT in progress", the previous AT While the number of digested games is taken over and added, the "advantageous section" continues for a predetermined number of games (for example, 1500 games), so that the "AT in progress state" is changed to the "normal game state" and then again within a specific game. If the AT lottery is won and the state shifts to the "AT in progress state", the number of AT digestion games is not taken over from the previous number of AT digestion games, and the number of AT digestion games is newly counted from 0 games.
(2) If the stop button is not operated for a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) after the reel starts rotating, a display prompting the reel to be stopped on the effect display device S40 (for example, "reel" If you do not operate the stop button for a predetermined time after the reel starts rotating in a game in which push order navigation is occurring, (2-1) effect The display areas of the push order navigation display on the display device S40 and the display prompting to stop the reel do not overlap, and (2-2) the display prompting to stop the reel is not displayed.
(3) When the power is set to "ON → OFF → ON" in a game in which push order navigation is occurring, the rotation speed of the reel becomes a constant speed and before the operation of the stop button becomes effective. The push order navigation (display on the push order display device D270 and / or display on the effect display device S40) is redisplayed at the timing of.
(4) The state related to a certain AT and the state related to another AT are the states related to the AT in which the push order navigation occurs differently in the game in which the common bell is won, or the push order navigation can occur. The frequency of push-order navigation in the game in which the common bell is won differs between the state related to a certain AT and the state related to another AT, which is a state related to AT in which push-order navigation can occur.
(5) In the RT state (“RT1” in this example), which has the highest probability of winning a re-game, the percentage of games in which push-order navigation occurs is higher than the percentage of games in which push-order navigation does not occur. high. For example, the total winning rate of the bell role and the replay role is 1/2 or more. With this configuration, the player can proceed with the game without getting bored during AT.
It may be configured as described above.

Here, the feature points of the above-mentioned game section will be described in detail below.

≪Normal section≫

(2) The push order navigation can be displayed on the effect display device S40.
(3) A command (signal) relating to a condition device in which a player's profit margin differs depending on the pressing order can be transmitted from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side.
(4) A lottery for changing the performance of the "advantageous section" (for example, shifting from a "high probability state" to a "AT in progress state" as a state related to AT), a lottery for adding the number of AT games, and the like can be executed.
(5) In the "advantageous section", the advantageous section indicator YH is always lit.
(6) Advantageous section When the counter value of the remaining game number counter YKc-1 becomes 0, the "advantageous section" is basically the "advantageous section" unless BB or push order navigation is executed once or more in the "advantageous section". However, as an exception, if the "advantageous section" continues for a predetermined number of games (1500 in this example), the BB and push order navigation will be performed once in the "advantageous section". Is configured so that the "advantageous section" can be terminated even if it is not executed.
(7) The measurement of the number of games remaining in the advantageous section YKc-1 is executed in all the games in the "advantageous section" (for example, the counter value is added for each game even during BB execution).

Here, the feature points related to the lottery set for the "advantageous section" will be described in detail below.
(1) Whether or not the "advantageous section" is set is determined based on the result of the winning combination lottery, and whether or not the "advantageous section" is set is not determined as the number of games elapses.
(2) When a condition device having a different lottery probability is established depending on the set value, the set lottery for the "advantageous section" is not executed when the condition device is established.
(3) When a certain condition device is established and the set lottery for the "advantageous section" is executed, the lottery probability is the same even if the set values are different.
(4) The performance of the "advantageous section" does not differ depending on the set value (for example, when a strong cherry is established, the setting 1 shifts to the "high probability state", and the setting 6 shifts to the "AT in progress state". Etc., it does not differ depending on the set value).
(5) Setting to "advantageous section" If you win the lottery, it will basically be "advantageous section" from the next game (setting to "advantageous section" by the BB role established in "normal section" If you win the lottery, you can set it as a "waiting section" in the next game).

Here, the feature points related to the change in the performance of the "advantageous section" will be described in detail below.
(1) The lottery for changing the performance of the "advantageous section" with reference to the set value is not executed (as a condition common to all set values, a predetermined number of games may have passed and a predetermined condition device may be established). .. (2) When a condition device having a different lottery probability is established depending on the set value, the lottery for changing the performance of the "advantageous section" is not executed when the condition device is established. The lottery for adding the number of AT games is not executed.
(3) When the BB is internally elected, the lottery for changing the performance of the "advantageous section" is not executed. The lottery for adding the number of AT games is not executed.
(4) During BB execution, if the lottery probability of the BB combination that triggered the BB being executed differs depending on the set value, a lottery to change the performance of the "advantageous section" during the BB execution. Is not executed. The lottery for adding the number of AT games is not executed.
(5) During BB execution, if the lottery probability of the BB combination that triggered the BB being executed does not differ depending on the set value, a lottery to change the performance of the "advantageous section" during the BB execution. Can be executed. A lottery for adding the number of AT games can also be executed.

Further, the following configuration may be applied to the rotating body type gaming machine according to this example. Further, the following configurations may be applied individually or a plurality of configurations may be combined.

<< Point 1 >>
(1) Although it is an "advantageous section", it is configured to have a "high probability state" as a state related to an AT that is more difficult to win the AT lottery than the "high probability state".
(2) The continuous effect is composed of at least the number of consecutive games of a predetermined G number or more.
(3) It has a normal role that does not win 100% in the AT lottery and a special role that wins 100% in the AT lottery. In this case, if a special role is won during the continuous production, an effect for notifying that the AT lottery has been won is executed even during the continuous production (the continuous production is replaced).
(4) The more games that have a high number of secured obstacle games, the higher the probability of selecting a continuous production with a high degree of expectation (expectation of bonus winning, AT lottery winning), and the remaining games with a high number of secured obstacle games. The smaller the number, the higher the probability of selecting a continuous production with low expectations.
(5) Highly secured The smaller the number of remaining games, the higher the probability of selecting a one-game completion production with a higher expectation (expectation of bonus winning, expectation of AT lottery winning).
(6) If the number of remaining games with a high number of obstacle games is less than or equal to a predetermined value (for example, 4 games), the continuous production that is lost is not executed, but the continuous production that is a hit (bonus winning, AT lottery winning) is Can be executed. In other words, when the number of remaining games in the number of high-securing obstacle games is less than or equal to a predetermined value (for example, 4 games), the production of completing one game can be executed in both cases of loss and hit, but continuous production is a hit. Can only be executed if.
(7) When the number of ceiling Gs (1500 games) in the advantageous section is less than a predetermined value (4 games), the continuous effect is not executed.
(8) The selection tendency of the effect differs depending on whether the number of ceiling Gs in the advantageous section is less than or equal to the predetermined value or more than the predetermined value (frequency of continuous effect, expected degree of jackpot of predetermined effect, etc.).
(9) When a new shift to the "advantageous section" is made during the continuous production of loss in the "normal section" (for example, the production of defeat).
(9-1) Rewrite the continuous production (stage change production in the "advantageous section" transition game, "turning around and having a character, Stechen suggestion dialogue", etc.). The rate at which the effect is rewritten during the continuous effect (defeat) is higher than the rate at which the effect is rewritten during the continuous effect (victory).
(9-2) Change the stay stage after executing the continuous production to the end. The ratio of notifying that the sub-control board S side has shifted in the game when the transition to the "advantageous section" is performed during the execution of the continuous production, and the sub in the game when the continuous production is not executed. The ratio of notifying the shift on the control board S side is different.

<< Point 2 >>
(1) A player can select a stay stage (stage A group) that can be set in the "normal section". For example, it can be selected by operating the sub input button.
(2) The lottery result of whether or not it will be the 1: "advantageous section" of the stay stage A group will be announced in advance when the start lever is turned on in the game.
Stay stage A group 2: The lottery result of whether or not it will be an "advantageous section" will be announced later at the end of the game (or when the next game is bet (when the replay stop is displayed, when the start lever is operated)).
(3) When the "normal section" is changed from the "advantageous section" and the stay stage other than the stay stage A group, the stay stage is selected from the stay stage A group. When the stay stage is changed from the "advantageous section" and the stay stage other than the production group A to the "normal section", the stay stage is maintained.
(4) The AT expectation when the advantageous section indicator is off and the stay stage A group is off and the AT expectation when the advantageous section indicator is off and other than the stay stage A group are different. For example, from the one with the lowest AT expectation, "advantageous section indicator is off and stay stage A group → advantageous section indicator is on and stay stage A group → advantageous section indicator is on and other than stay stage A group"
(5) The transition of the stay stage (stay stage A group → stay stage B group) is triggered by the production in the game that has changed from the "normal section" to the "advantageous section" (including the production of 1G completion and the continuous production). There is a difference between the rate of occurrence and the rate of transition of the stay stage triggered by the production in the game that changed from the "advantageous section" to the "normal section".

<< Point 3 >>
(1) The higher the number of guaranteed games in the "advantageous section" (the number of remaining games with high secured obstacle games), the higher the degree of expectation (the degree of expectation of winning the AT lottery, the degree of expectation of winning the bonus). The higher the probability of selecting a stay stage, and the smaller the number of guaranteed games in the "advantageous section" (the number of remaining games with high secured obstacle games), the higher the expectation (expectation of winning the AT lottery, winning the bonus). There is a high probability of choosing a stay stage with a high degree of expectation.
(2) When the remaining guaranteed games in the "advantageous section" are less than or equal to a predetermined value (4 games or less), the smaller the number of remaining guaranteed games, the lower the probability of selecting the effect of shifting the stay stage.
(3) High expectations (expectations for winning the AT lottery, expectations for winning the bonus) High expectations If a production with high expectations is selected without staying at the stage, the expectations are high. Expectation (winning AT lottery) than when a production with high expectation is selected while staying in a high stay stage (expectation of winning AT lottery, expectation of winning bonus) The degree of expectation that you are doing, the degree of expectation that you are winning the bonus) is high.

<< Point 4 >>
(1) If you win the BB in the "Resurrection possibility production state",
(1-1) The AT addition lottery may or may not be executed during the BB. (1-2) After the end of BB, it may or may not shift to the "AT in progress state".
(1-3) The AT addition lottery may or may not be executed during the BB. (1-4) When the state shifts to the "AT in progress state" after the end of the BB, the number of remaining AT games may or may not be subtracted by one game in the "recoverable / non-recoverable effect state".
(2) The AT addition lottery may or may not be executed in the "state for effect of resurrection". When the AT addition lottery is executed
(3) If you win the reverse push white 7 match replay or the forward push black 7 match replay in "Resurrection possibility production state", avoidance navigation will occur, and at the timing after executing the resurrection production (success) Notify the number of additional games.
(4) If a role that can shift to the "advantageous section" is won in the "recovery possibility production state", the advantage section indicator turns off at the start timing of the next game, while the "revival possibility production state" If a role that can shift to the "advantageous section" is won in the next game when the revival lottery is not won, the advantageous section indicator can be turned on at the start timing of the next game.
(5) In the case of the specification that the AT addition lottery is not performed although it is an advantageous section in the "state for revival possibility production"
(5-1) Even if you win a role (for example, Watermelon A) that can execute an AT additional lottery in the "Resurrection possibility production state", the number of AT games will not be added, but 1G that executes the resurrection production (success) If a winning combination (for example, watermelon A) that can be added in (“AT in progress”) is won, the number of AT games can be added.
(6) Bonus when the revival production (success) is executed by winning the bonus in the revival production execution game when "battle production 3G + revival production (failure) 1G" is scheduled to be executed as the production at the end of AT. The number of AT games will not be added during the bonus, but the number of AT games will be added during the bonus when the bonus is won and the resurrection production (success) is executed in the battle production execution game (any of 3G). Can be done. In addition, the production tendency during the bonus may be different.

<< Point 5 >>
(1) When there are a game state A and a game state B as states related to AT which is an "advantageous section".
(1-1) The expected degree of winning of the AT addition lottery is "game state A> advantageous state B" (the number of AT games is relatively easier to be added in the game state A than in the game state B, or the AT addition game. a lot).
(1-2) The number of additional additions that can be added when the combination X is won in the game state A and the number of additional additions that can be added when the combination Y is won in the game state A are different.
(1-3) The number of additions that can be added when the combination X is won in the game state B and the number of additions that can be added when the combination Y is won in the game state B are the same.

<< Point 6 >>
(1) The display modes of the fall avoidance suggestion display are as follows: when the start lever is operated (A), after the first stop to before the second stop (B), and after the second stop to before the third stop (C). Make a difference.
(1-1) The display mode of the fall avoidance suggestion display is in the order of "A <B <C" from the one that is inconspicuous to the player.
(2) In the case where the AT has ended from the "AT in progress state" and "RT1" state to the "low probability state" and "RT1", if the push order combination is won, the push order display device is used for pushing. The order navigation is displayed, but the push order navigation is not displayed on the effect display device (displayed as "???").
(3) If a prize 18 (falling combination) is won in the third stop in a game in which the fall avoidance suggestion display is displayed, the display is maintained in the same display mode as the display mode after the second stop. ..
(4) When the start lever is operated in a situation where the power is restored and the initial processing related to the display of the effect display device is not completed, the initial processing related to the display of the effect display device is completed. At the previous timing, the push order navigation is executed by the voice from the speaker (for example, "Left!").
(5) Even in a state related to AT that is highly profitable for the player, such as the "additional specialization state", when the fall role is won, the fall avoidance suggestion effect is displayed with priority.
(6) Even if the faller wins in the "advantageous section", the "advantageous section" is maintained.
(7) When the falling combination is configured to be a pushing order combination (whether or not to stop and display is determined by the pushing order), a pushing order combination (pushing order bell, etc.) that is not a falling combination is won and the pushing order is selected. When the navigation is executed and stopped in a push order different from the push order navigation, the display of the effect display device may be dimmed, while when the fallen role is won, the push order is stopped in a different push order from the push order navigation. In that case, the display of the effect display device is not dimmed (or the display of the fall avoidance suggestion effect is not dimmed).

<< Point 7 >>
(1) When configured to shift to "RT3" and "AT ready state" after the end of BB related to BB with setting difference (similar to change example 1 from this embodiment).
(1-1) By winning a role that wins with a high probability in "RT3", the player wins the AT additional lottery (100% may be won, or may be won with a predetermined probability).
(1-2) The RT state that shifts after the end of the BB is different depending on the type of the BB combination, and the AT addition lottery execution mode (the combination that executes the addition lottery, the addition) according to the combination that is likely to appear in any of the RT states. The lottery winning probability and the number of games added to AT) are different.
(1-3) Bonus A->RT1-> Promotion replay A-> RT3 (high probability of replay), Bonus B->RT2-> Promotion replay B-> RT3. The winning rate or the average number of additional games is different.
(1-4) If bonus A → RT1 and bonus B → RT2, and have promotion replay A and promotion replay B, the winning probability of promotion replay A and promotion replay B is high for RT1 and RT2. It's different. (1-5) Bonus A → RT1 and bonus B → RT2 are configured so that promotion replay and fall replay can be won, respectively, and the winning probabilities of promotion replay and fall replay differ between RT1 and RT2.
(1-6) There is a setting difference After the end of BB, the state shifts to the dedicated RT state (“RT3” and “AT preparation state”), and then shifts to the “additional specialized state” triggered by the promotion replay.

<< Point 8 >>
(1) It has 1st class BB-B1 and 1st class BB-B2, and shifts to "RT3" after the completion of 1st class BB-B1 and shifts to "RT4" after the completion of 1st class BB-B2. When configured as.
(1-1) The execution mode of the AT additional lottery (the combination of executing the additional lottery, the additional lottery winning probability, the number of AT additional games) is different between "RT3" and "RT4".
(1-2) The production tendency is different between the BB start effect related to Type 1 BB-B1 and the BB start effect related to Type 1 BB-B2 (the selection rate of the highly expected BB start effect is different).
(2) When the re-game 04 is stopped and displayed before the re-game 06 in the "AT ready state" and "RT3", the process shifts to "RT4" and the treasure chest loss effect is not executed. In "RT4", the replaying role promoted to "RT3" is elected. In addition, when "RT4" is changed to "RT3", even if the player wins the replay-E1 to E3 after that, the treasure box opening addition effect is not executed.
(3) It has multiple types of BB roles, and even if the BB role is won, it is difficult for the player to visually determine which BB role has won, and after the end of BB depending on the type of BB. The RT state of the above is different, and the execution mode of the AT addition lottery when the promotion re-game combination is won differs depending on the RT state. When configured in this way, the selection tendency of the treasure chest acquisition effect performed during BB differs depending on the type of BB (acquire gold treasure chest, acquire silver treasure chest, acquire copper treasure chest, etc.) The number distribution is different).

<< Point 9 >>
(1) There is a setting difference won during AT There is a ratio that the same production mode is obtained between the BB start effect related to BB and the setting difference related to BB won during AT, and there is a setting difference won during non-AT. There is a difference between the BB start effect related to BB and the start effect related to BB with no setting difference won during non-AT, which have the same effect mode.

<< Point 10 >>
(1) Suggest the set value when winning the BB without setting difference in the "normal section" rather than the probability that the effect suggesting the set value is selected when the BB with the setting difference is won in the "advantageous section". The probability that the production will be selected is higher.
(2) The BB won during non-AT selects a different BB start effect according to the setting difference, but the BB won during AT selects the same BB start effect regardless of the setting difference.
(3) The ratio that the BB start effect is the same between the BB with the setting difference won during AT and the BB without the setting difference won during AT, and the setting difference between BB and non-AT won during non-AT. The ratio of the BB start effect to the same effect mode is different between the winning BB and the BB with no setting difference.

<< Point 11 >>
(1) "No setting difference combination (a combination whose winning rate does not differ depending on the set value) + BB" When winning, select "Advantageous section indicator lighting + effect B" that can be executed when the "No setting difference combination" is won. The probability of selecting "advantageous section indicator off + effect A", which can be executed at the time of winning the "combination with setting difference (combination with different winning rate depending on the set value)", is higher than the probability of selecting {"rare". "Role + BB time" is a production that encourages the winning of BB (for example, a battle production) rather than a production that fuels the transition to a high-probability state (for example, a production that shifts to a stay stage that can stay in a high-probability state). Is easier to execute}.
(2) When a predetermined role (for example, cherry) is won, it is configured to shift to a high probability state at 100%, and the distribution of the number of high-securing obstacle games is "50% → 3G, 40% → 20G, 10%". → 50G ”, and if 3G is selected, the battle will be defeated, and in other cases, the battle will be won. In addition, the degree of expectation of the length of the number of highly accurate games (whether it is 20 games or 50 games) differs depending on the opponent who won the battle. Further, in the case of the above example, an effect of inciting continuation is performed at the 20th Gth with high accuracy (an effect of inciting whether the game is 20 games or 50 games, and if successful, it is confirmed that the game is 50 games). ..

<< Point 12 >>
(1) It has a predetermined freeze effect that can be executed in the "normal section", and the probability of occurrence of the freeze effect differs depending on the set value.
(1-1) In the "advantageous section", the predetermined freeze effect is not executed.
(1-2) The predetermined freeze effect is more likely to be executed in the "normal section" than in the "advantageous section". (1-3) The predetermined freeze effect can be executed in the BB winning game with a setting difference.
(1-4) The predetermined freeze effect can be executed in the BB winning game with a setting difference.
(1-5) The predetermined freeze effect can be executed at the time of loss.

First, with reference to FIG. 59, a part of the configuration of the memory map in the RAM (sometimes referred to as the first RAM) of the main control board M applicable to the spinning machine according to this example will be described in detail. In the area shown in the figure, from the upper address, (1) "setting value data": area for data related to the number that manages the setting stage, (2) "external signal system data": external signal output. Area for storing related information, (3) "RAM check sum data": Data used in the check sum calculation process executed when the power is turned on, and calculated from the data stored in the RAM when the power is turned off. Area for storing the stored data and storing information for calculating a specific value (for example, "0") in the checksum calculation process executed when the power is turned on, (4) "Control command buffer": Sub Area for storing command information to be transmitted to the control board side, (5) "Stack pointer temporary storage buffer": Information used when power is turned off and restored, and is stored in the current stack pointer when power is turned off. Area for storing existing data and storing information to be stored in the stack pointer when the power is turned off and on, (6) "Unused area": Area for storing areas not used for the game, (7) "Saved data" 1-Saved data 8 ": Areas are used in the order of RAM in which saved data may be written to the maximum in design by a CALL instruction, a PUSH instruction, or the like. In this configuration, the highest address indicated by the stack pointer is "7FF8H" by design, but if an unexpected problem (such as an unexpected power failure) occurs, it is higher than "7FF8H". There is a possibility that the stack pointer will point to the address of. In that case, there is a possibility that the saved data will be stored beyond the area of "backed data 1 to saved data 8" reserved as the area of the data to be saved in advance. In consideration of such a situation, data that does not affect the progress of the game (less influence) on the address (address close to "7FF8H") that the stack pointer may indicate when the unexpected problem occurs. It is preferable to configure it to store data). Specifically, the game is provided by providing an address for storing "set value data" at an address that is at least one address free from "save data 1 to save data 8" secured as an area of data to be saved in advance. It is possible to provide a game machine that does not give a disadvantage not only to the person but also to the game hall. In the figure, (5) "stack pointer temporary storage buffer" is data that is not used in the situation where the game is in progress after the power is turned off and restored, and (4) "control command buffer". Is unlikely to affect the progress of the game even if the command cannot be sent to the sub-control board S side, and (3) "RAM check sum data" is used in the situation where the game is progressing after the power is turned off and restored. It is data that does not occur, and (2) "external signal system data" is data to be transmitted to the hall computer, and therefore has little influence on the progress of the game. On the other hand, (1) "set value data" is data related to the set value that affects the result of the game, so that, for example, if the set value is changed to a low set value, the player will be significantly disadvantaged. there is a possibility. Furthermore, for example, if the set value is changed to a high value, there is a possibility that a significant disadvantage will occur in the amusement park. As described above, (1) "set value data" is important data for the normal progress of the game. For this reason, in (1) to (7) in the figure, (1) "set value data" is the highest data (data stored in the higher address). In other words, the addresses between (1) "set value data" and (7) "save data 1 to save data 8" are (2) "external signal system data" and (3) "RAM check sum data". , (4) "Control command buffer", (5) "Stack pointer temporary storage buffer", and (6) "Unused area" are stored. With this configuration, even if a problem occurs in the gaming machine and the number of data saved from the stack pointer to the RAM exceeds the design, the RAM that is not used for the game is provided. Therefore, the gaming machine can be configured so that an abnormal state is unlikely to occur. In addition, (2) "external signal system data", (3) "RAM check sum data", (4) "control command buffer", (5) "stack pointer temporary storage buffer", (6) "unused area" There is no problem even if the order of the addresses that store the five data of is changed. For example, even if the upper addresses are stored in the order of "(3)->(2)->(4)->(5)->(6)". Alternatively, the data may be stored in the order of "(6)->(5)->(3)->(2)->(4)" from the upper address. Further, (6) may be configured so as not to provide an "unused area". The data stored in the RAM areas (2) to (5) above does not make it impossible to insert game medals even if the data stored in the RAM area is changed (game medals). The data is such that an error that makes it impossible to input the data does not occur.

The area for storing the "set value data" shown in FIG. 59, in other words, the area (1) in FIG. 59 may be configured to store the following data.
(A) Total score data: An area for storing data related to the number of game medals that play the same role as the total number of game medals that can be inserted in an enclosed type rotating game machine that does not use actual game medals (total score data). When the score data is stored in the area (1) in FIG. 59, it may be configured to have 2 bytes as the area (1) in FIG. 59).
(B) Minimum game time: Data for counting the minimum game time of one time (counter value is subtracted for each interrupt process) (the minimum game time of one time is 4.1 seconds)
(C) Counter for the number of acquired cards when the BB is operated: A counter for determining whether or not the condition (number of payouts) for ending the BB is satisfied (counter corresponding to the value given to the player with the game value). Subtract the value)
(D) Counter for the number of acquired cards when the MB is activated: A counter for determining whether or not the condition (number of payouts) for ending the MB is satisfied (counter corresponding to the value given to the player with the game value). Subtract the value)
It should be noted that the above (A) to (D) and the "set value data" may be configured to be able to be stored (stored at different addresses), or only one of them may be stored. good. In addition, when a plurality of data can be stored, all of the plurality of data are stored (provide an area for storing) at an address higher than the areas (2) to (7) in FIG. 59. It is preferable to configure it so as to do so. With such a configuration, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that does not give a disadvantage to the player or the amusement park. Furthermore, if the address is at least higher than the area (6), the highest address indicated by the stack pointer is "7FF8H" by design, but an unexpected problem (unexpected power failure, etc.) occurred. In some cases, the stack pointer may indicate an address higher than "7FF8H", but it is possible to provide a gaming machine that does not give a disadvantage to the player or the amusement park.

<< Actions related to replay stop display >>
Next, with reference to FIG. 60, the action of the replay game applicable to the rotating body type gaming machine according to this example in the winning game will be described in detail. In addition, the configuration illustrated below exemplifies a configuration in which a game medal can be inserted even while the stop display of the re-game is displayed.

First, in the game in which the replay was won (the previous game was lost), two reels were stopped and one reel (also called the final reel) was rotating, and the 1-bet lamp D211 and the 2-bet lamp D212, While the 3-bet lamp D213 is lit, the stop button corresponding to the final reel is operated (the stop button remains on), and the re-game symbol is stopped and displayed at the timing (1) in the figure. .. After that, the stop button is released (on → off) at the timing (2) in the figure, and then the re-game lamp D290 lights up at the timing (3) in the figure. After that, at the timing (4) in the figure, the 2-bet lamp D212 and the 3-bet lamp D213 are turned off at substantially the same time. After that, at the timing (5) in the figure, the 2-bet lamp is set as an automatic betting operation related to the re-game that is stopped and displayed (when the re-game is stopped and displayed, a bet is placed without inserting a game medal or operating the bet button). D212 lights up. After that, at the timing (6) in the figure, the operation of the start lever D50 becomes effective, and the 3-bet lamp D213 lights up and the 3-bet lamp D213 lights up as the automatic betting operation related to the re-game that is stopped and displayed.

The plurality of through holes RU40 formed in the bottom portion RU30 of the reel unit RU described above are formed so as to correspond to each of the plurality of screw holes BU10 of the pedestal portion BU. The three screw holes BU10 are formed so as to correspond to, for example, the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53.

The number and position of the through hole RU40 and the screw hole BU10 may be arranged in the horizontal direction so as to correspond to each other, and the reel unit RU may be stably mounted on the pedestal portion BU. Further, only the reel unit RU may be attached to the pedestal portion BU by the screw hole BU10 (and the screw BS) of the pedestal portion BU, or the reel unit may be configured by the screw hole BU10 (and the screw BS) of the pedestal portion BU. Both the RU and one reel (left reel M51, middle reel M52, or right reel M53) may be configured to be attached to the pedestal BU.

<< How to fix the reel unit RU >>
As shown in FIGS. 64 and 65, the reel unit RU is placed on the pedestal portion BU, and each of the through holes RU40 of the reel unit RU communicates with the screw hole BU10 of the corresponding pedestal portion BU. By positioning the unit RU and screwing the screw BS into the screw hole BU 10 through the through hole RU 40 of the reel unit RU, the reel unit RU can be attached and held at a fixed position on the pedestal portion BU. By doing so, the reel unit RU can be detachably attached to the pedestal portion BU.

In addition to the case where the reel unit RU is attached by a screwing member such as a screw or a bolt in addition to the screw BS, the reel unit RU may be detachably attached by using a detachable rivet, for example, a member such as a push rivet. It suffices if the reel unit RU can be detachably attached to the pedestal portion BU by an engaging member, a locking member, or the like.

In this example, the configuration in which the reel unit RU is placed on the pedestal portion BU is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a through hole RU40 is provided in the upper part of the reel unit RU and inside the housing by a screw BS. It may be configured to be fixed (fixed so as to hang), or through holes RU40 may be provided on both side surface portions of the reel unit RU and fixed to the inside of the housing by a screw BS. Further, even in such a configuration, the configuration relating to the position of the screw BS and the drop position of the screw BS described in detail below (for example, the configuration relating to the screw BS arranged at the position closest to the position where the front door DU opens and closes). ) Is applicable.

<< Hopper H40 and medal auxiliary tank HS >>
FIG. 66 (a) is a perspective view from the right side of the back surface of the hopper H40, and FIG. 66 (b) is a perspective view from the left side of the back surface of the hopper H40. It should be noted that FIGS. 66 (a) and 66 (b) also show arrows indicating the movement of the screw BS, which will be described later. The arrows indicating the movement of the screw BS are shown in FIGS. 66 (a) and 66 (b) for both the positions (1) and (2) of the screw BS and the hopper H40.

The hopper H40 (sometimes referred to as a main tank member) is a funnel-shaped tank molded of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) resin or the like. As shown in FIG. 66, the hopper H40 has a front side wall H42, a left side wall H44, a rear side wall H46, and a right side wall H48. The front side wall H42, the left side wall H44, the rear side wall H46, and the right side wall H48 are arranged so as to go around, and the opening H30 is formed by the front side wall H42, the left side wall H44, the rear side wall H46, and the right side wall H48. NS. The opening H30 is formed so as to open upward. The medals inserted from the above-mentioned medal insertion slot D170 are introduced into the hopper H40 via the opening H30. The hopper H40 may be composed of a plurality of members, and the plurality of members may be collectively referred to as a hopper H40, a main tank member, a main tank unit, and the like.

Further, the hopper H40 has a hopper bottom portion H52, a right side inclined portion H54, and a left side inclined portion H56. The right-side inclined portion H54 is arranged on the right side of the hopper H40, and the game medal introduced on the right side of the hopper H40 is guided toward the hopper bottom portion H52, which will be described later, by its own weight. The left inclined portion H56 is arranged on the left side of the hopper H40, and guides the medal introduced on the left side of the hopper H40 toward the hopper bottom H52 by its own weight. Further, the left inclined portion H56 has a covering portion H57. The covering portion H57 extends from the left inclined portion H56 and is arranged so as to cover above substantially the left half of the disc H50 described later. By providing the covering portion H57, it is possible to prevent a plurality of game medals from being connected to each other on the hopper bottom portion H52 and being unable to fall, and to smoothly guide the game medals toward the hopper bottom portion H52.

By providing the right side inclined portion H54, the left side inclined portion H56, and the covering portion H57, all the game medals introduced into the hopper H40 through the opening H30 can be guided to the hopper bottom portion H52. The medals guided by the right inclined portion H54, the left inclined portion H56, and the covering portion H57 are stored in the hopper bottom portion H52. As described above, the right side inclined portion H54, the left side inclined portion H56, and the covering portion H57 function as a storage inclined portion for storing the game medal inside the hopper H40.

A disk H50 as a rotating body is arranged on the bottom H52 of the hopper. The disk H50 is rotationally driven by the hopper motor H80 described above, and the game medal is ejected from the game medal outlet H60 by the rotational operation of the disk H50. In this way, the medals stored in the hopper H40 can be ejected one by one from the game medal outlet H60.

<Discharge guide unit H62>
Inside the front side wall H42, a discharge guide portion H62 is formed along the front side wall H42. The discharge guide portion H62 has an elongated shape and has an inclined surface H64 formed so as to be inclined. When the hopper H40 is arranged in the back box, the right side of the inclined surface H64 is located below the left side of the inclined surface H64. The width of the inclined surface H64 is formed to be substantially constant, but is formed so as to be slightly widened downward (from the left side to the right side).

The discharge guide unit H62 guides the game medals at the upper part of the hopper H40 to the medal auxiliary tank HS and stores them in the hopper H40 before the game medals are stored in the hopper H40 and the game medals overflow from the hopper H40. It is a member to reduce the number of medals. A discharge port H66 is formed on the right side of the inclined surface H64, and the game medals guided by the inclined surface H64 are discharged to the medal auxiliary tank HS via the discharge port H66. In this way, the discharge guide unit H62 functions as a discharge inclined portion for discharging the game medal to the outside of the hopper H40. As described above, the right-side inclined portion H54, the left-side inclined portion H56, and the covering portion H57 function as storage inclined portions for storing the game medals inside the hopper H40, whereas the discharge guide portion H62 holds the game medals. It functions as a discharge inclined portion for discharging to the outside of the hopper H40, and has a function opposite to that of the right inclined portion H54 and the left inclined portion H56.

Further, the left side inclined portion H56, the covering portion H57, and the discharge guide portion H62 all move the game medal from the left side to the right side. That is, the left side inclined portion H56, the covering portion H57, and the discharge guide portion H62 all have an inclined downward to the right. The final target of the left side inclined portion H56 and the covering portion H57 is the hopper bottom portion H52, and the final target of the discharge guide portion H62 is the medal auxiliary tank HS. The movement of game medals can be aligned from the left side to the right side.

A protruding wall H58 projecting upward along the longitudinal direction of the inclined surface H64 is erected in the vicinity of the discharge port H66 on the depth side of the inclined surface H64 of the discharge guide portion H62. The protruding wall H58 can prevent the medal placed on the inclined surface H64 from falling onto the bottom of the hopper H52.

<Medal auxiliary tank HS>
The medal auxiliary tank HS has a substantially square columnar shape, and has a bottom surface and four side surfaces. The medal auxiliary tank HS has an opening HS10 at the upper portion, and medals discharged from the hopper H40 are introduced through the opening HS10 and stored inside the medal auxiliary tank HS. The detailed structure and function of the medal auxiliary tank HS will be described later.

<< Dropping of the screw BS of the reel unit RU >>
A front door DU is attached to the revolving gaming machine so as to be openable and closable with respect to the back box (the front door DU and the back box may be collectively referred to as a housing). The front door DU is rotatably attached to the back box with the left side of the front door DU (left side when viewed from the player) as the center of rotation. Therefore, the right side of the front door DU (the right side when viewed from the player) has the largest movement distance, and when the front door DU is closed, an impact due to contact or collision with the back box is generated and propagates to the back box. Since the impact is generated on the right side of the revolving pachinko machine, the impact on the right side of the revolving pachinko machine is the largest, and the impact tends to be gradually weakened on the left side of the revolving pachinko machine.

As described above, the reel unit RU is detachably attached to the pedestal portion BU by the screw BS. The screw BS is screwed into the screw hole BU10 of the pedestal portion BU at three locations on the left side, the center, and the right side, and the right side screw BS screwed into the screw hole BU10 on the right side receives the largest impact. Therefore, the right side screw BS screwed into the right side screw hole BU10 is most likely to loosen due to an impact, and when the screwing is released, the right side screw BS falls off and falls. Further, the central screw BS screwed into the central screw hole BU10 is also subject to an impact, and may loosen and fall off due to the impact. The left screw BS screwed into the screw hole BU10 on the left side is expected to have a small impact to some extent, but it is naturally possible that the left screw BS will loosen and fall off depending on the degree of propagation of the impact and the usage time.

<< Position of screw BS and hopper H40 (1) >>
As shown in FIGS. 64 and 65, the hopper H40 (medal payout device H) and the medal auxiliary tank HS are arranged at the lower part of the reel unit RU. In the example shown in FIG. 64, the inclined surface H64 of the hopper H40 is located at least below the right side screw BS among the three screw BSs described above.

When the right side screw BS falls off due to an impact, it first falls freely downward (arrow 1A). The dropped right side screw BS reaches the inclined surface H64, and by the weight of the right side screw BS, it rolls on the inclined surface H64 while being guided by the inclined surface H64 and moves along the inclined surface H64 (arrow 1B). When the right screw BS reaches the discharge port H66, it freely falls toward the medal auxiliary tank HS (arrow 1C) and is stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS.

In this way, even if the right side screw BS is dropped due to an impact, it can be discharged from the hopper H40, and the dropped screw BS is prevented from entering the hopper H40, and the dropped screw BS prevents the dropped screw BS from entering the hopper H40. It is possible to prevent the disk H50 from being hindered from rotating or damaging the disk H50, and to allow the hopper H40 to operate stably.

In the above-mentioned example, only the right side screw BS was targeted, but the hopper H40 is located above the inclined surface H64 of the hopper H40 so that all three left side screw BS, center screw BS, and right side screw BS are located above the inclined surface H64 of the hopper H40. And the reel unit RU may be positioned. Even if any of the screw BSs is dropped, the dropped screw BS can be guided to the medal auxiliary tank HS. Further, in this example, a screw BS for mounting the reel unit RU on the pedestal portion BU has been illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the front door DU is prone to impact due to contact with the back box or collision. A member such as a screw attached to the right side (right side when viewed from the player) may also be configured to be stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS when it falls off.

<< Position of screw BS and hopper H40 (2) >>
FIG. 67 is a front view showing the arrangement of the reel unit RU and the hopper H40. In the example shown in FIG. 67, among the three screw BSs described above, the inclined surface H64 of the hopper H40 is located below the central screw BS, and the medal auxiliary tank HS is located below the right screw BS. In FIG. 67, the same configuration as in FIG. 64 is shown with the same reference numerals.

When the right side screw BS falls off due to an impact, it freely falls downward (arrow 2A) and is stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS as it is (without contacting the inclined surface H64).

When the central screw BS falls off due to an impact, it first falls freely downward (arrow 3A). The dropped central screw BS reaches the inclined surface H64, and by the weight of the central screw BS, it rolls on the inclined surface H64 while being guided by the inclined surface H64 and moves along the inclined surface H64 (arrow 3B). When the central screw BS reaches the discharge port H66, it freely falls toward the medal auxiliary tank HS (arrow 3C) and is stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS.

Prevents the dropped right-side screw BS and central screw BS from entering the hopper H40, and prevents the dropped screw BS from hindering the rotational operation of the disk H50 or damaging the disk H50. It can be operated stably.

In the above-mentioned example, the right side screw BS and the center screw BS are targeted, but the left side screw BS also positions the hopper H40 and the reel unit RU so as to be located above the inclined surface H64 of the hopper H40. May be good. Even if any of the screw BSs is dropped, the dropped screw BS can be guided to the medal auxiliary tank HS.

As described above, it is preferable to form a protruding wall H58 protruding upward along the longitudinal direction of the inclined surface H64 on the depth side of the inclined surface H64 of the discharge guide portion H62. By providing the protruding wall H58, it is possible to prevent the screw BS that has fallen off and is placed on the inclined surface H64 from falling onto the bottom of the hopper H52. The height of the protruding wall H58 is equal to or higher than the height at which the screw BS rebounds when it falls on the inclined surface H64. It is possible to prevent the screw BS from falling onto the bottom H52 of the hopper, and prevent the screw BS from interfering with or causing a failure of the operation of the disk H50.

In this way, even if the screw BS for attaching the reel unit RU is detached due to vibration caused by opening and closing the front door DU, the detached screw BS does not enter the hopper H40 and assists the medal. By configuring the tank HS to fall into the tank HS, the manager of the amusement park can easily collect the detached screw BS.

<< Hopper H400 >>
In the example shown in FIG. 67, when the right side screw BS falls, it passes through the outside of the hopper H40 (the right side of the right side wall surface H48 when viewed from the player) (arrow 2A) and is stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS. The dropped right side screw BS can be shared with the hopper H40 shown in FIG. 64 by storing the dropped right side screw BS in the medal auxiliary tank HS without passing through the inside of the hopper H40.

On the other hand, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 67, the hopper H400 having a structure in which the right side wall H48 is extended to the right side (right side wall H480) may be used. The hopper H400 has a bottom opening H410 formed at the bottom near the right side wall H480, and when the right screw BS falls, it passes through the inside of the hopper H400 and further passes through the bottom opening H410 to enter the medal auxiliary tank. Stored in HS. In this way, through the bottom opening H410, the dropped right side screw BS can be accurately guided to the medal auxiliary tank HS without entering the hopper H40.

<< Extension RU50 >>
In the above-mentioned example, when the screw BS falls off, it freely falls toward the lower medal auxiliary tank HS as it is. On the other hand, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 65, the extension portion EN may be provided at the lower part of the reel unit RU or the pedestal portion BU. By providing the extension portion EN, even if the screw BS falls off, it does not fall immediately, but once guided by the extension portion EN, it can be dropped into the medal auxiliary tank HS. In this way, the extension portion EN makes it possible to match the position where the screw BS is attached with the position of the medal auxiliary tank HS, and it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in the position where the medal auxiliary tank HS is arranged.

<< Configuration of medal auxiliary tank HS >>
<Through hole HS20 for full detection electrode>
As shown in FIG. 68, the medal auxiliary tank HS is formed with at least two through holes HS20 for full detection electrodes on the back surface. Further, at the lower part of the back surface of the back box, two full detection electrodes DE and a continuity detection substrate CC (see FIG. 65) are provided. The two full detection electrodes DE have an elongated shape, extend parallel to each other and horizontally, and are arranged so as to project forward. The two full detection electrode through holes HS20 of the medal auxiliary tank HS are formed corresponding to the two full detection electrodes DE. When the medal auxiliary tank HS is arranged at the bottom of the back box, the two full detection electrode DBs pass through the corresponding fullness detection electrode through holes HS20 and project toward the inside of the medal auxiliary tank HS.

As the medals are stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS, the uppermost portion UL of the stored game medals (see FIG. 69 (c)) gradually rises and approaches the two full detection electrodes DE. Note that FIG. 69 (c) is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which game medals are stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS. The line of the uppermost portion UL shown in FIG. 69 (c) is a line connecting the contours of the game medals located in the uppermost portion UL of the game medals stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS (for example, an envelope line). (For convenience, the top UL is illustrated with a smooth curve). When the game medals stored in the medal auxiliary tank HS come into contact with the two full detection electrodes DE and the two full detection electrodes DE conduct with each other through the plurality of medals, between the two full detection electrodes DE. An electrical circuit is formed. Due to the formation of the electric circuit, the continuity detection board CC outputs a signal indicating that the two fullness detection electrodes DE are conducting. By doing so, when the game medals are stored up to the positions of the two full detection electrodes DE, the medal full error can be detected.

The number of full detection electrodes DE is not limited to two, but may be three or more. For example, in the case of providing three, in addition to the two full detection electrodes described above, one full detection electrode is newly provided below the two full detection electrodes, and the newly provided one is provided. It can be configured so that a medal full error can be detected by conducting the fullness detection electrode and any one of the two fullness detection electrodes described above, and by making such a configuration, the medal assist Even when the game medals are not evenly stored in the tank HS (for example, when the game medals are stored unevenly to the right side of the medal auxiliary tank HS), the medal full error can be detected.

<< Material of bis BS and material of medal >>
The material of the screw BS is magnetically conductive and conductive. For example, it is made of steel. Further, the material of the medal cannot be magnetized and is conductive. For example, it is made of brass plated or stainless steel. With this configuration, even if the screw BS falls into the medal auxiliary tank HS, the screw BS can be easily taken out from the medal auxiliary tank HS by using a magnet or the like.

<< Relationship between the total length BL of the screw BS and the distance EL between the two full detection electrodes DE >>
The left side screw BS, the center screw BS and the right side screw BS described above are used to attach the reel unit RU to the pedestal portion BU. FIG. 69B is a front view showing the entire screw BS. As this screw BS, one having a total length BL in the longitudinal direction (see FIG. 69 (b)) shorter than the distance EL between the two full detection electrodes DE (see FIG. 69 (a)) is used (of the screw BS). Overall length BL <distance EL between two full detection electrodes DE). By doing so, even if the screw BS (for example, the right side screw BS) falls off and enters the medal auxiliary tank HS, it is shorter than between the full detection electrodes DE, so two screw BSs alone are used. It does not conduct with the full detection electrode DE (the screw BS does not get caught in the two full detection electrodes DE). The total length BL of the screw BS is the sum of the thickness (length) of the head and the nominal length. Further, FIG. 69A is a plan view of a back portion of the medal auxiliary tank HS showing a state in which the fullness detection electrode DE protrudes inside the medal auxiliary tank HS.

<< Relationship between the seating surface length HR of the screw BS and the diameter ED of the full detection electrode DE >>
The radial length HR of the seat surface of the screw BS (see FIG. 69 (b)) is shorter than the diameter ED of the full detection electrode DE (see FIG. 69 (a)) (in the radial direction of the seat surface of the screw BS). Length HR <Diameter ED of full detection electrode DE). By doing so, even if the screw BS falls off and enters the medal auxiliary tank HS, the head of the screw BS will not be hooked on one of the full detection electrodes DE, and the screw will not be caught. Even when the BS comes into contact with the full detection electrode DE, it can be immediately detached, and the screw BS alone does not accidentally conduct.

In particular, as shown in FIG. 69 (c), one of the two full detection electrodes DE, the full detection electrode DE (for example, the full detection electrode DE on the right side of FIG. 69 (c)) is already stored. When in contact with the medal (uppermost portion UL), the other full detection electrode DE (for example, the full detection electrode DE on the left side in FIG. 69 (c)) and the screw BS temporarily come into contact with each other. Even if such a case occurs, the bis BS is not hooked on the full detection electrode DE, and the bis BS can be immediately separated from the full detection electrode DE (see arrow F in FIG. 69 (c)). , The conduction circuit is not formed via the screw BS, and the full state of the medal auxiliary tank HS is not erroneously determined.

As an example, the case where the reel unit RU is an integrated unit that stores all three reels has been described, but even if it is a separate unit that stores each of the three reels separately, the screw BS It is detachably attached to the pedestal portion BU by the reel, and the possibility that the screw BS will come off also arises. Therefore, configurations such as the medal auxiliary tank HS and the screw BS can be similarly adopted.

<< Reel band configuration >>
FIG. 70A is a front view showing the entire reel band MO. FIG. 70B is a perspective view showing a state in which the reel band MO is curved. FIG. 70 (c) is an enlarged front view showing the vicinity of the cut M59 of the reel band MO in an enlarged manner. FIG. 70 (d) is an enlarged front view showing the vicinity of the “white seven” symbol in an enlarged manner. The "white seven" symbol is a bonus symbol, and BB is started when "white seven, white seven, white seven" is stopped and displayed on the effective line. The reel band MO has a long thin plate-like shape (strip shape). As described above, a plurality of symbols are drawn on the reel band MO along the longitudinal direction. The reel band MO is flexible and can be curved. In addition, it has translucency, and the design can be illuminated from the back by the light emitted from the rotating cylinder backlight.

It has a first end M55 and a second end M57 in the longitudinal direction of the reel band MO. The first end M55 and the second end M57 are curved so as to face each other and attached to the reel frame MW to form an annular (cylindrical) reel M50. The reel frame MW is mainly composed of two annular frames of the same size, and the two frames are made of a resin such as plastic to reduce the weight. The two frames are arranged so that they are parallel to each other and their centers are located on the same axis of rotation. Further, the distance between the two frames is arranged so as to be substantially the same as the width of the reel band MO. The reel M50 can be formed by sticking the reel band MO between the two frames along the outer circumference of the two frames.

<Overlapping part M58 and cut M59>
The reel band MO is formed so that the length of the reel band MO in the longitudinal direction is slightly longer than the length of the entire circumference of the reel frame MW. Therefore, when the reel band MO is attached to the reel frame MW, a portion (overlapping portion M58) where a part of the reel band MO overlaps is generated near the first end portion M55 and the second end portion M57. By doing so, the reel band MO can be attached over the entire circumference of the reel frame MW without creating a gap along the circumferential direction (longitudinal direction of the reel band MO). Further, when the reel band MO is attached to the reel frame MW, a part of the reel band MO overlaps, and a cut M59 is formed by the first end portion M55.

As shown in FIG. 70 (c), the reel band MO is attached to the upper side of the second end portion M57, and the cut M59 is formed by the first end portion M55. When attaching the reel band MO to the reel frame MW in this way, first, when starting to attach the reel band MO, start attaching to the reel frame MW from the second end M57, and then attach the reel frame MW to the reel. While gradually rotating in the same direction as the rotation direction of the M50, the reel band MO is attached from the second end M57 toward the first end M55 along the circumference of the reel frame MW, and finally, the first The reel band MO is pasted on the upper side of the end portion M57 of 2, and the pasting is completed up to the first end portion M55. When the reel band MO is attached in such an order, the first end portion M55 ends to be attached in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the reel M50, and the first end is attached on the reel band MO. The parts M55 are overlapped.

On the other hand, the reel band MO is started to be attached to the reel frame MW from the first end M55, and then the reel band MO is gradually rotated in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the reel M50 while the reel band MO is attached to the first end. Along the circumference of the reel frame MW from M55 to the second end M57, and finally, the reel band MO is pasted on the upper side of the first end M55 and pasted up to the second end M57. It's over. When the reel band MO is pasted in such an order, the second end portion M57 ends to be pasted in the same direction as the rotation direction of the reel M50, and the second end portion M57 is pasted on the reel band MO. M57 is in an overlapping state.

Here, the reel band MO is started to be attached to the reel frame MW from the first end portion M55, and then the second end portion M57 is attached to the reel M50 in the same direction as the rotation direction, and the second end portion M57 is attached onto the reel band MO. In the case where the ends M57 of 2 are overlapped, when the game is executed and the reel M50 rotates, air comes into contact with the cross section of the second end M57 (the air resistance is large). , Air easily enters between the second end portion M57 and the reel band MO on the lower side thereof, and the reel band MO in the vicinity of the second end portion M57 is gradually peeled off.

On the other hand, the reel band MO is started to be attached to the reel frame MW from the second end M57, and then the first end M55 is attached in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the reel M50, and the reel band MO is attached. In the case where the first end M55 is overlapped on top, when the game is executed and the reel M50 is rotated, the second end M57 is overlapped on the reel band MO described above. Compared with, it is difficult for air to come into contact with the cross section of the first end M55 (air resistance is small), and it is difficult for air to enter between the first end M55 and the reel band MO below it. The reel band MO near the first end M55 is in a state where it is difficult to peel off.

From the above, when the reel band MO is attached to the reel frame MW, the reel band MO is started to be attached to the reel frame MW from the second end M57, and then the first end M55 is attached to the reel M50 in the opposite direction to the rotation direction. It is preferable that the sticking is completed in the direction and the first end portion M55 is overlapped on the reel band MO.

<Various errors>
As described above, when the reel band MO is attached to the reel frame MW, the overlapping portion M58 is formed between the first end portion M55 and the second end portion M57, and the first end portion M55 or the second end portion M55 or the second end portion M58 is formed. A cut M59 is formed by any end of the end M57. Since the reel frame MW described above is made of a resin such as plastic, an error may occur during molding. In addition, when assembling the reel frame MW, it may be deformed and an error may occur. Further, since the reel band MO has flexibility, when the reel band MO is attached to the reel frame MW, the reel band MO can be attached in a state where the reel band MO is distorted or the like, or the size of the reel frame MW ( The outer circumference) may be installed in a state slightly different from the design value. When a large symbol (for example, "white seven") is configured to be located on the lower reel band MO of the overlapping portion M58, the mounting position of the reel band MO is desired due to these various errors. It is also assumed that the upper reel band MO of the superposed portion M58 overlaps the large symbol when the position is deviated from the above position, so that the large symbol is covered by the upper reel band MO.

In addition, the player may aim at the bonus symbol and press the button depending on the game state, and when the bonus symbol is placed near the cut M59, the player may aim at the bonus symbol and press the button. , When the bonus symbol is stopped, the cut M59 may also be visually recognized when the bonus symbol is visually recognized. When various errors as described above occur, it is assumed that not only the symbol but also the deviation of the cut M59 and the deviation of the position of the symbol are visually recognized by the player. When the bonus symbol is stopped and displayed as a symbol combination, the player will pay attention to the bonus symbol with joy because it is a symbol combination that is highly profitable for the player. If you visually recognize the deviation of the position of, there is a possibility that the joy of stopping and displaying the symbol combination that is the bonus symbol will decrease.

<For bonus symbols>
In order to prevent such a situation, a symbol smaller than the largest symbol such as a bonus symbol is arranged at the position closest to the cut M59. Specifically, when the length in the longitudinal direction of the symbol (bonus symbol, etc.) having the longest length in the longitudinal direction (longitudinal direction of the reel band MO) is LL, the length in the longitudinal direction is longer than LL. A short symbol (longitudinal length SL) is placed closest to both the first end M55 and the second end M57.

In this way, by arranging the symbols having a short length in the longitudinal direction at the positions closest to the first end portion M55 and the second end portion M57, even if various errors occur, these The symbol can be arranged at a position separated from the overlapping portion M58 (cut M59), and it is possible to prevent the symbol from being covered by the reel band MO. Further, even when the above-mentioned various errors occur, it is possible to prevent the player from visually recognizing the deviation of the cut M59, the deviation of the position of the symbol, and the like. In the figure, the length in the longitudinal direction of the bell symbol (the symbol that can form the symbol combination corresponding to the bell) and the length in the longitudinal direction of the cherry symbol (the symbol that can form the symbol combination corresponding to the cherry) are defined. Although it is shown as the same SL, if it is shorter than LL, which is the longitudinal length of the bonus symbol (white seven), the longitudinal length of the bell symbol and the longitudinal length of the cherry symbol are different. There is no problem. Further, the symbols arranged in the vicinity of the cut M59 are not limited to the bell symbol and the cherry symbol, and may not be bonus symbols. For example, a re-game symbol (a symbol that can form a symbol combination corresponding to the re-game). Or watermelon symbol (a symbol that can form a symbol combination corresponding to watermelon) may be arranged in the vicinity of the cut M59. Further, in this example, the longitudinal length of the bonus symbol (white seven) is compared with the longitudinal length of the symbol (for example, the bell symbol) located near the cut M59, but the present invention is not limited to this. , The length of the bonus symbol (white seven) in the lateral direction may be longer than the length of the symbol (for example, the bell symbol) located near the cut M59 in the lateral direction.

In the above-mentioned example, the length in the longitudinal direction of the symbol having the longest length in the longitudinal direction (bonus symbol, etc.) is LL, and the length in the longitudinal direction is shorter than LL. The arrangement of the symbols was decided by the comparison of, but the length in the lateral direction (direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the reel band MO) is LT, and the length in the lateral direction is shorter than LT. The arrangement of the symbols may be determined by comparison with the length ST in the direction.

The lengths LL and SL in the longitudinal direction described above are the lengths of the difference between the portion of the symbol that protrudes most upward and the portion of the symbol that protrudes most downward along the longitudinal direction. Similarly, the lengths LT and ST in the lateral direction are the lengths of the difference between the portion of the symbol that protrudes most upward and the portion of the symbol that protrudes most downward along the lateral direction.

<In the case of a small role pattern>
Furthermore, in addition to bonus symbols, symbols such as watermelon symbols and cherry symbols that do not stop and are not displayed on the effective line depending on the operation timing of the stop button even if they are won, in other words, are arranged at a distance of more than the maximum number of slip frames. A symbol that has at least one location (sometimes referred to as a symbol corresponding to a rare role, a symbol that may be missed, etc.) is also a symbol to be pressed, and a symbol that the player wants to see. Is. In addition, in a game in which a rare role is won, the winning of the rare role may not be notified before the stop button is operated, and even in such a case, the player wants to win the rare role, so it is the rarest. In many cases, the stop button is operated at the operation timing (operation mode) of the stop button, which is easy to obtain a role (which is most profitable for the player). In addition, there are some gaming machines that have a large number of winning combinations, such as one that is paid out when a prize is won, and in such a case, the operation timing (operation) of the stop button that is most profitable for the player. The stop button is often operated in the mode). It should be noted that operating the stop button at the operation timing (operation mode) of the stop button, which is the most profitable for the player, may be referred to as an optimum game method.

Here, with reference to FIG. 71, an example of the relationship with the break M59 when the game is executed by the optimum game method will be described in detail below. In the gaming machine illustrated in FIG. 71, the effective lines are the left reel upper stage, the middle reel upper stage, the right reel upper stage (upper stage straight line), the left reel middle stage, the middle reel middle stage, and the right reel middle stage (middle stage straight line). Left reel lower, middle reel lower, right reel lower (lower straight), left reel upper, middle reel middle, right reel lower (right down straight), left reel lower, middle reel middle, right reel upper (right up straight) ) And 5 lines, and the specified number is 3 sheets. In addition, it has a watermelon role and a cherry role as rare roles, and when the watermelon role wins, "watermelon, watermelon, watermelon" stops and displays in a straight line on the effective line, and when the cherry role wins. Is configured so that "cherry, any, any" (any indicates that any symbol may be used) is stopped and displayed in a straight line on the effective line. Further, since both the watermelon symbol and the cherry symbol are rare roles, the symbol has at least one location separated by the maximum number of slip frames or more.

FIG. 71 is an enlarged front view showing a part of the reel band MO in an enlarged manner. In the figure, only the left reel is illustrated. In the example shown in FIG. 71, watermelon, bell, replay, BAR, and cherry are arranged in this order on the reel band MO, and these symbols are located at positions away from the first end M55 and the second end M57. Is located in. When a rare role is won, the player often operates the stop button aiming at a position on the reel where it is easy to detect the winning of the rare role and it is easy to win the rare role. When a certain watermelon role or cherry role is won, the rare role can be won by playing with the above-mentioned optimum game method. Specifically, as the operation timing of the stop button that can win the rare role, it stops between three frames from the timing when the cherry symbol is located in the upper row to the timing when the cherry symbol is located in the lower row. By operating the button, you can win a prize regardless of whether you win the role of watermelon or the role of cherry. When the stop button is operated at such an operation timing (optimal game method), the range of 9 frames from the upper row of the cherry symbol to the lower row of the watermelon symbol is the range in which the stop display can be performed, which is shown in the figure. As described above, even when any range of the nine frames is stopped and displayed (in any of the nine stop display modes), the position away from the first end M55 and the second end M57. (There is no cut M59 near the symbol placed two frames above the watermelon, and there is no cut M59 near the symbol placed two frames below the cherry), and the deviation of the cut M59. It is possible to prevent the player from visually recognizing the deviation of the position of the pattern or the symbol.

As shown in the figure, a symbol that can be stopped and displayed when the stop button is operated aiming at a position on the reel where the rare combination is likely to be won is displayed in the vicinity of the first end M55 and the second end M57. The first end portion M55 and the second end portion M57 can be configured not to be positioned at the position where the stop is frequently displayed on the reel. Even when the reels are misaligned, it can be configured so that the misalignment of the cut M59 and the misalignment of the symbol position are less likely to be visually recognized by the player.

In this example, the number of steps for one round of the reel is 336 steps, and the number of symbols arranged on one reel is 20 symbols (20 frames). Here, since 336/20 = 16 remainder 16, there are 16 17-step frames (designs) and 4 16-step frames (designs) as the distribution of 20 frames (designs). The reel is configured. Further, since it is preferable that the cut M59 is configured so as not to be visually recognized by the player as much as possible, the frame (design) adjacent to the cut M59 should have 16 steps with a relatively small number of steps. Is preferable.

As the configuration of the revolving pachinko machine in this example, it is not necessary to insert and pay out the actual game medals used in the general revolving pachinko machine, and a pseudo game medium converted into data is used. It may be configured so that the game can proceed. In addition, in such a configuration, the effect of preventing unauthorized access to the inside of the revolving pachinko machine can be improved by the amount that it is not necessary to insert and pay out the actual game medal (for example, the insertion opening of the game medal). It does not have a payout opening, the front door and the back box are integrated, etc. to close the gap where foreign matter is inserted), reduce the risk of illegal game medals being used, etc. It can be configured to improve the security against fraudulent acts (so-called goto acts) such as (sometimes referred to as an enclosed rotating body type gaming machine). It should be added that the configuration of the enclosed type rotating gaming machine can be applied to any of the above-described embodiments (or configurations). The credit and the credit number display device D200 may not be provided. For example, the credit and the total score (total score) may be combined into one total score, and the main control board M and payout control may be provided. The total score may be increased / decreased or displayed on the board H (also referred to as a game value control board or game value control means) or another board.

In addition, it corresponds to a substantive game medal used in a general pachinko / pachislot machine, and has a “score” as a pseudo game medium used for playing a game in an enclosed pachinko / pachislot machine. It may be configured. In addition, "score" may be referred to as "score information", "points", "point information", "game value", and "game value information". Physically existing and substantive game medals can be directly picked up and handled by the player. On the other hand, in the enclosed type rotating game machine, the player can proceed with the game without directly handling the actual game medal. The score is not a real game medal, but a pseudo game medium that is converted into data so that a CPU such as a main control board can perform arithmetic processing. Further, the "credit" is a score for temporarily storing the score in a bet-able state or a settlement-capable state, and is data mainly managed by the main control board M. Further, the "total score" is all the scores that can be input to the enclosed type rotating gaming machine, and may be data managed by the main control board or the payout control board. The "total score" corresponds to the number of game medals placed on the medal tray of a general rotating game machine that uses a substantive game medal. When the configuration of the enclosed type rotating gaming machine is applied to the above-described embodiment, what is referred to as a "game medal" in the present specification is referred to as "score", "score information", and "score information". There is no problem in treating it as "points", "point information", "game value", "game value information", etc., and "score", "score information", "points", "point information" as appropriate. , There is no problem in calling it as "game value" or "game value information". It is not necessary to have "credit". Further, there is no problem in replacing the credit number display device with the total score display device.

(Second Embodiment)
In addition, in this embodiment, it is configured to have an AT in-progress state or the like as a state related to AT which is advantageous to the player, and in the AT in-progress state (so-called AT), the push order navigation is executed, so that the player is in an advantageous state. However, the configuration of the gaming machine capable of executing AT is not limited to the configuration of the present embodiment. Therefore, the configuration of the rotating drum type gaming machine capable of executing an AT different from the configuration of the present embodiment will be set as the second embodiment, and only the differences from the present embodiment will be described in detail below.

First, FIG. 72 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (third sheet) according to the subroutine of step 1200 of FIG. 16 in the second embodiment. The difference from the present embodiment in the figure is step 4100 (second) and step 4200 (second), that is, after executing the above-mentioned conditional device number management process in step 1450, step 4100 (first). In 2), the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the freeze execution determination process at the start of rotation, which will be described later, and proceeds to step 1550.

Further, in step 1750, after executing the above-mentioned AT state start control process, in step 4200 (second), the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the stop freeze execution determination process described later, and in step 3500. Transition. Details will be described later, but in the second embodiment, the reel freezes when the reel starts rotating (when the start lever D50 is operated) and when the reel is stopped (when the final reel is stopped and when the third reel is stopped). (The reel does not start rotating for a predetermined time, and the betting operation related to the next game cannot be executed for a predetermined time) is configured to occur.

Next, FIG. 73 is a flowchart of the freeze execution determination process at the start of rotation according to the subroutine of step 4100 (second) of FIG. 72 in the second embodiment. First, in step 4102, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the state related to AT is newly changed to the "AT in progress state" from the game. Here, "newly in AT state" is a case where the state related to AT becomes "AT in progress state" for the first time after winning the AT lottery (sometimes referred to as AT first hit). As an example, (1) Win a BB in the "high probability state" → shift to the "advantageous BB internal medium state" → the BB symbol (bonus symbol) is stopped and displayed, and the transition to the "advantageous BB state" → BB After finishing, it shifts to the "AT in progress state", (2) If the cherry is won in the "high probability state", the AT lottery is won by 1/2, and after winning the AT lottery, the precursor state { It is a state related to AT to give the player a sense of expectation regarding whether or not he has won the AT lottery, and even if he does not win the AT lottery related to the winning of the cherry, it is the same as the "precursor state". In the case of a configuration that shifts to the effect mode (background effect, etc.) that may be configured to have a "precursor state"}, the cherry is won in the "high probability state" and is based on the winning of the cherry. Since the AT lottery was won, the game state transitions to the "precursor state" → Since the predetermined number of games that are the end conditions of the "precursor state" have been executed, the game state transition such as newly shifting to the "AT in progress state" is "new". It corresponds to "AT in progress". On the other hand, as an example of the case where it does not correspond to "newly in AT state", (1) staying in "AT in progress state" → "AT continuous battle state" because the AT counter value became 0 { Shift to "AT in progress" again (state that may be in a row)} → Shift to "AT in progress" again, (2) Win BB in "AT in progress" → " Transition to "Advantageous BB internal medium state" → BB symbol (bonus symbol) is stopped and displayed, transition to "Advantageous BB state" → BB ends, transitions to "AT in progress" again, etc. It does not correspond to "AT in progress".

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, in the case of Yes in step 4102, in step 4104, the CPUMC of the main control board M is set to the AT start freeze execution flag (a flag that turns on to execute the freeze at the start of reel rotation). ) Is turned on. Next, in step 4106, the CPUMC of the main control board M is an AT start freeze execution command (a command to the sub control board S side, and when the sub control board S side receives the command, the sub control board S side (The AT start effect will be executed) is set, and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1550). Even if No in step 4102, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1550). The freeze illustrated in the figure is just an example, and there is no problem even if it is configured to have various types of freezes (execution conditions and execution time).

Next, FIG. 74 is a flowchart of the reel rotation start preparation process according to the subroutine of step 1550 of FIG. 72 in the second embodiment. The difference from the present embodiment is step 1568 (second) to step 1574 (second), that is, in step 1568 (second), the CPUMC of the main control board M has the AT start freeze execution flag turned on. It is determined whether or not it is. In the case of Yes in step 1568 (second), in step 1570 (second), the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the AT start freeze execution flag. Next, in step 1572 (second), the CPUMC of the main control board M has a freeze execution timer (a decrement timer, which is a freeze execution time executed when a new “AT in progress” state is reached, and “AT”. The freeze execution time at the start (5 seconds in this example) was added to the freeze execution time (timer for measuring the freeze execution time executed when the "medium state" ends), and the "AT in progress state" was newly set. The freeze execution time to be executed in the case) is set, the timer is started, and the process proceeds to step 1574 (second). Next, in step 1574 (second), the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the timer value of the freeze execution timer has become 0. If Yes in step 1574 (second), the process proceeds to step 1552. On the other hand, if No in step 1574 (second), the process of step 1574 (second) is repeatedly executed until the freeze execution time at the start of the "AT in progress" elapses. In addition, even if No in step 1568 (second), the process proceeds to step 1552.

As described above, in the second embodiment, the freeze (sometimes referred to as the freeze at the start of AT) is executed when the "AT in progress state" is newly started, and the details will be described later. However, during the freeze execution, the AT start effect is executed on the sub-control board S side. In this example, the freeze execution time at the start of AT is set to 5 seconds, but there is no problem even if the execution time is changed, and it is preferable to set it according to the execution time of the AT start effect. In this example, the freeze execution time at the end of AT, which will be described later, is 3 seconds, and the freeze execution time at the start of AT is longer than the freeze execution time at the end of AT. Has been done. In this way, by setting the freeze execution time at the start of AT, which will be advantageous to the player in the future, to be relatively longer than the freeze execution time at the end of AT, it is possible to increase the player's motivation to play. It can be a high-priced gaming machine.

Next, FIG. 75 is a flowchart of the stop freeze execution determination process according to the subroutine of step 4200 (second) of FIG. 75 in the second embodiment. First, in step 4202, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the AT counter value has newly become 0 in the game. "The AT counter value has newly become 0" is a case where the AT counter value has changed from "1 to 0" in a situation where the AT counter value such as "AT in progress" is being subtracted. The case where the AT counter value is always 0, such as the situation where the state related to AT is "normal game state", is not included.

Returning to the explanation of the flowchart, in the case of Yes in step 4202, the process proceeds to step 4206. On the other hand, if No in step 4202, in step 4204, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the counter value of the number of remaining games in the advantageous section has newly become 0 in the game. "The counter value of the number of games remaining in the advantageous section is newly set to 0" means that the counter value of the number of games remaining in the advantageous section is subtracted in a situation such as "AT in progress". It is not included when the counter value of the number of remaining games in the advantageous section is always 0, such as the case where “1 → 0” is set and the state related to AT is “normal game state”. If Yes in step 4204, the process proceeds to step 4206. Next, in step 4206, the CPUMC of the main control board M has a freeze execution timer (a decrement timer, and the freeze execution time and the “AT in progress” that are executed when a new “AT in progress” is reached are set. The freeze execution time at the end (in this example, 3 seconds, which is 3 seconds, and the freeze executed when the "AT in progress" ends, is set to the timer for measuring the execution time of the freeze executed at the end. Execution time) is set and the timer is started. Next, in step 4208, the CPUMC of the main control board M is an AT end freeze execution command (a command to the sub control board S side, and when the sub control board S side receives the command, the sub control board S side The AT end effect will be executed), and the process proceeds to step 4210. Next, in step 4210, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the timer value of the freeze execution timer is 0. If Yes in step 4210, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 3500). On the other hand, if No in step 4210, the process of step 4210 is repeatedly executed until the freeze execution time at the end of the "AT in progress" elapses. If No in step 4204, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 3500).

Next, FIG. 76 is an image diagram of AT start effect execution in the second embodiment. In the figure, an example of a case where the power cutoff does not occur during the execution of the AT start effect and a case where the power supply cutoff occurs will be described in detail.

First, in (a) of the figure, the case where the power supply is not cut off during the execution of the AT start effect will be described in detail. First, when the start lever D50 related to the game in which the state related to AT is newly changed to the "AT in progress state" is operated (the game start condition is satisfied), the AT start effect is started and the freeze is executed. Will be done. Further, as an effect mode of the AT start effect, "Warp execution!" Is displayed on the effect display device S40 for 1 second (while the AT start effect is being executed, a background effect dedicated to the execution of the AT start effect is always executed). .. In this example, the AT start effect and the freeze execution time are 5 seconds. After that, one second elapses from the start of the freeze, and the display "Warp execution!" Is erased on the effect display device S40. It should be noted that the state in which only the background effect dedicated to the execution of the AT start effect is displayed on the effect display device S40 is maintained for 3 seconds. After that, when 4 seconds have passed from the start of freeze execution, "AT50G START !!" is displayed for 1 second on the effect display device S40 as an effect mode of the AT start effect. After that, when 5 seconds have passed from the start of the freeze execution, the freeze execution ends, the AT start effect execution ends, and the reel rotation starts. When the execution of the AT start effect is completed, the display of "AT50G START !!" on the effect display device S40 is deleted, and the background effect dedicated to the execution of the AT start effect is displayed in the AT state. It will be switched to a possible background production. In addition, when the push order navigation described above is executed in the first game in the AT state, (1) Freeze starts execution → Freeze ends after 5 seconds have passed → Reel starts rotating and is produced. The push order navigation is displayed on the display device S40, (2) Freeze starts execution → Freeze ends after 5 seconds have passed → Reel starts rotating → Reel drive state becomes reel constant speed state and the effect display device S40 You may configure it to display the push order navigation. With this configuration, even if the reel rotation start timing is later than before due to freeze execution, the player mistakenly operates the stop button corresponding to the pressing order different from the correct pressing order. It is possible to prevent the situation where it ends up.

Next, in (b) of the figure, the case where the power supply is cut off during the execution of the AT start effect will be described in detail. First, when the start lever D50 related to the game in which the state related to AT is newly changed to the "AT in progress state" is operated (the game start condition is satisfied), the AT start effect is started and the freeze is executed. Will be done. Further, as an effect mode of the AT start effect, "Warp execution!" Is displayed on the effect display device S40 for 1 second (while the AT start effect is being executed, a background effect dedicated to the execution of the AT start effect is always executed). .. In this example, the AT start effect and freeze execution time is 5 seconds (excluding the time when the power is off). After that, one second elapses from the start of the freeze, and the display "Warp execution!" Is erased on the effect display device S40. It should be noted that the state in which only the background effect dedicated to the execution of the AT start effect is displayed on the effect display device S40 is maintained for 3 seconds. After that, when 2 seconds have passed from the start of freeze execution, the power is cut off (for example, the amusement park is cut off). After that, when the power is restored, "AT50G START !!" is displayed on the effect display device S40 for 3 seconds, and the freeze is still executed. After that, when the total time from the start of freeze execution except when the power is off is 5 seconds, the freeze execution ends, the AT start effect execution ends, and the reel rotation starts. It will be. As described above, in this example, when the power is cut off during the execution of the freeze (during the execution of the AT start effect) and then recovered from the power off, the freeze execution time is from the state before the power off. It will be executed continuously. As an example, when the freeze execution time is 5 seconds and the power is cut off 1 second after the freeze execution starts, the freeze is executed for 4 seconds after the power is restored, and the freeze is executed. If the power is cut off 3 seconds after the start, the freeze will be executed for 2 seconds after the power is restored.

Further, the execution time of the AT start effect is also the same as the execution time of the freeze. If the power is cut off during the execution of the AT start effect and then the power is restored, the execution time of the AT start effect is the power off. It will continue to be executed from the state before it occurred. On the other hand, the effect mode of the AT start effect differs between the case where the power cut occurs during the execution of the AT start effect and the case where the power cut does not occur. Specifically, during the execution of the AT start effect. If the power is not cut off, "AT50G START !!" is displayed on the effect display device S40 at the timing when 4 seconds have passed from the start of execution of the AT start effect, while the AT start effect is being executed. When the power is cut off, "AT50G START !!" is displayed on the effect display device S40 after the power is turned off, regardless of the timing of the power off. The display of "AT50G START !!" may be referred to as the number of games displayed at the start of AT. Further, in the figure, as the display of the number of games at the start of AT, it is shown to notify that the number of remaining AT games (at the start of the AT state) is 50 games at the start of AT, but the display mode is The present invention is not limited to this, and for example, when the lottery for adding the number of AT games is enabled to be executed in the "advantageous BB state" executed immediately before the transition to the AT in-progress state, the AT in the "advantageous BB state" Addition of the number of games The number of remaining AT games obtained by winning the lottery is added to the 50 games which is the initial number of AT games, and the number of remaining AT games is displayed on the effect display device S40 as the number of games at the start of AT. May be good. As an example, when the number of remaining AT games of 30 games is acquired by the lottery for adding the number of AT games in the "advantageous BB state", "AT80G START !!" is displayed as the number of games displayed at the start of AT. You may. In the figure, only the AT start effect is illustrated, but similarly, the effect mode of the AT end effect is the case where the power is cut off during the execution of the AT end effect and the case where the power is cut off. It is configured to be different from the case where there is no AT end effect (for example, when the power supply is not cut off during the execution of the AT end effect, "AT end GET 〇〇" is displayed 2 seconds after the start of the AT end effect. On the other hand, if the power is cut off during the execution of the AT end effect, "AT end GET 〇〇" is displayed after returning from the power cut, regardless of the timing of the power cut.). Further, if the power is cut off during the execution of the AT start effect or the AT end effect, and the power is cut off during the execution of the AT start effect or the AT end effect, the effect is displayed immediately after the power is turned off. If this is the case, the display is not limited to the number of games displayed at the start of AT, and there is no problem as long as the display allows the game to proceed smoothly by being visible to the player.

With the above configuration, according to the gaming machine according to the second embodiment, the freeze can be executed in the case of newly shifting to the AT in-state state and in the case of ending the AT in-progress state. , The AT start effect is executed during the freeze execution when the state is newly shifted to the AT state, and the AT end effect is executed during the freeze execution when the AT state ends. In the case of such a configuration, if a power failure occurs during the execution of the AT start effect or the AT end effect, it is scheduled to be displayed from a predetermined timing in the AT start effect or the AT end effect after the power supply is restored. By configuring the display to be displayed immediately after the power is turned off and restored, even if an unintended power off (for example, a power failure in the amusement park) occurs during the execution of the freeze, the game such as the number of remaining AT games can be played. By configuring the player to immediately display the information necessary for grasping the game situation, it is possible to prevent the player from being unable to grasp the game situation.

In the second embodiment, the freeze can be executed depending on the case where the state is newly changed to the AT state and the case where the AT state is terminated, but the execution mode of the freeze is not limited to this. , It may be configured so that it can be executed at the start of BB, the end of BB, etc., or it may be configured so that it can be executed based on the winning condition device and the game state in which the player is staying.

In addition, from the configuration related to the freeze in the rotating body type gaming machine according to the above-mentioned example,
Freeze execution period when the power is not cut off during freeze execution = A
If a power outage occurs during freeze execution, the freeze execution period until the power outage occurs = B
If a power outage occurs during freeze execution, the freeze execution period after the power outage occurs = C
If
A = B + C
It is configured to be.

When the freeze related to the AT start effect is completed, the reel acceleration process described above is executed.

The max bet lamp is lit, the 1-bet lamp D211 is off, and the 2-bet lamp D212 is off under the condition that the game medal is not bet on the rotating game machine and the bet is valid. The 3-bet lamp D213 is off, and the start lamp D180 is off. After that, the first game medal is inserted, the max bet lamp remains lit, and the 1-bet lamp D211 is lit. After that, the start lamp D180 lights up (starts blinking). After that, the second game medal is inserted, the max bet lamp remains lit, and the 2-bet lamp D212 is lit. After that, the third game medal is inserted, the max bet lamp is turned off, and the 3-bet lamp D213 is turned on.

As in configuration 6, after inserting the third game medal, the max bet lamp is turned off and the 3-bet lamp D213 is turned on almost at the same time. In other words, the player maxes the 3-bet lamp D213. By configuring the bet button to light up as soon as possible after operating the bet button, the 3-bet lamp D213 can be seamlessly turned on according to the operation of the player, the progress of the game can be smoothed, and the game can be played. It is possible to prevent a person from inserting an extra game medal or feeling distrust in the performance and behavior of the game machine due to slow operation.

In the above-described configurations 1 to 4, configuration 6 and configuration 7, the max bet lamp is on = the max bet lamp is lit, but the lighting mode is such that the player can recognize that the max bet button is effective. As in the case of the configuration 5, the max bet lamp may be on and the max bet lamp may be blinking. Further, also in the configuration 5, the max bet lamp may be turned on = the max bet lamp may be turned on. Similarly, with respect to the configurations 1 to 6, the start lamp D180 is turned on = the start lamp D180 is lit, but the lighting mode may be such that the player can recognize that the operation of the start lever D50 is effective. , The start lamp D180 may be turned on = the start lamp D180 may be blinking, as in the configuration 7. Further, also in the configuration 7, the start lamp D180 may be turned on = the start lamp D180 may be turned on. Further, the max bet lamp may be configured to be controlled on the sub control board S side or may be configured to be controlled on the main control board M side.

<<< Configuration related to operation of payment button >> Next, with reference to FIGS. 84 to 87, the operation of operation of the payment button D60 applicable to the spinning machine according to this example will be described in detail. The following configuration illustrates a case where three game medals are bet on the game machine and the number of credits displayed on the credit number display device D200 is four. In the figure, it is ON that the Max Bet lamp is lit (or blinking), OFF that the Max Bet lamp is off, ON that the operation of the settlement button is newly detected, and the settlement button. The operation of the checkout button is not detected, the operation of the checkout button is turned off, the 1-bet lamp D211 is turned on, and the 1-bet lamp D211 is turned off. Turn on that the 2-bet lamp D212 is on, turn off that the 2-bet lamp D212 is off, turn on that the 3-bet lamp D213 is on, and turn on that the 3-bet lamp D213 is off. OFF, ON that the start lamp D180 is lit (or blinking), OFF that the start lamp D180 is off, ON that the start lamp D300 is lit (or blinking), ON, the lamp that can be turned on It is shown that turning off the D300 is OFF, and that the credit number display device D200 is decremented by 1 is deducted by 1 from OFF → ON → OFF. Further, in the figure, a case where game medals are inserted one by one from the medal insertion slot D170 is illustrated, but as a bet button, one is performed by one operation (off → on), which is different from the max bet button. A 1-bet button that allows betting of game medals or a 2-bet button that allows betting of two game medals by one operation (off → on) may be provided. There is no problem even if the same action as inserting one game medal into the D170 is applied to one pressing of the 1-bet button. The configuration illustrated below may be configured so that the game medals stored in the gaming machine can be settled even while the re-game stop display is displayed, or the game medals are stored in the gaming machine while the re-game stop display is displayed. It may be configured so that the game medals that are being played cannot be settled. In addition, as a condition for operating the settlement button D60 and paying out the bet game medal from the discharge port D40 (as a condition for determining that the settlement button has been operated), the settlement button has been turned "on → off". It may be "on", it may be "on for 0.5 seconds or more", or it may be turned on.

<< Configuration 1 >>

Three game medals are paid out from the discharge port D40 (payment is started), and then four game medals, which are credits stored in the game machine displayed on the credit number display device D200, are released. It is paid out from exit D40. Further, the insertable lamp D300 lights up at the timing when the last game medal to be paid out (the game medal in which the display of the credit number display device D200 changes from 1 to 0) is paid out.

By configuring the bet game medal to be settled (paid out) before the credit as in the configuration 1, it is confirmed that the credit becomes 0 when the player finishes the game. Even if you leave your seat immediately, you can prevent forgetting to settle the bet game medal. In particular, when the game is ended in a situation where the number of credits is small, such as one or two, there is a relatively high possibility that the player will not be able to obtain sufficient game medals and the game will be ended. The person's attention may also be distracted. Even in such a case, in order not to cause an unintended disadvantage to the player, the bet game medal is settled (paid out) before the credit, and as such. Therefore, in the configuration 1, in the configuration 1, the 1-bet lamp D211, the 2-bet lamp D212, the 3-bet lamp D213, and the start lamp D180 are set before the number of credits displayed on the credit number display device D200 is subtracted. , And the turnable lamp D300 is configured to turn off.

<<<<< Difference in operation due to power failure timing >>>>>
FIG. 88 is a timing chart illustrating the operation of the main control board M and the sub control board S depending on the timing of supplying power to the gaming machine and turning off the power. FIG. 88 (a) is a timing chart showing the first aspect of the timing of supplying power to the gaming machine and turning off the power, and FIG. 88 (b) shows the timing chart of the timing of supplying power to the gaming machine and turning off the power. It is a timing chart which shows 2 aspects.

The first aspect is an aspect in which a power failure occurs after the execution of the main program of the main control board M and the subprogram of the sub-control board S is started. On the other hand, the second aspect is an aspect in which the power is cut off before the execution of the main program of the main control board and the subprogram of the sub-control board is started.

In this example, a power failure is a state in which power supply to the gaming machine is stopped, a state in which the power switch of the gaming machine is turned off, a state in which the power cable is disconnected, a state in which the power cable is disconnected, or a power failure. It may be. This includes cases where power supply is unintentionally stopped at the amusement park. The timing when the power supply is cut off is the timing when the power supply to the gaming machine is stopped, the timing when the power switch of the gaming machine is turned off, the timing when the power cable is disconnected, and the power cable is disconnected. It is the timing when the power failure occurred.

In FIGS. 88 (a) and 88 (b), ΔT1 is obtained from the start of power supply until the supply voltage to the main control board M reaches a low level (sometimes referred to as an off level) after a power failure occurs. ΔT2 is the time from the start of power supply until the supply voltage to the main control board M reaches the supply level, and ΔT3 is the time from the timing when the power supply is cut off to the supply voltage to the main control board M. It is the time until the low level is reached, ΔT4 is the time from when the supply voltage to the main control board M reaches the supply level until the subprogram of the sub-control board S is activated, and ΔT5 is the time until the subprogram of the sub-control board S is activated. This is the time from when the supply voltage to M reaches the supply level until the main program of the main control board M is started. Here, the relationship of ΔT5 <ΔT1, ΔT2 <ΔT3, ΔT5> ΔT3, ΔT4 <ΔT5 is established.

<<< First aspect >>>
<< Changes in power supply status >>
The power supply to the gaming machine is started at time t1, the power supply is cut off at time t3, and the power supply to the gaming machine is stopped.

<< Operation of main control board >>
<Power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board>
As described above, power supply to the gaming machine is started from time t1. By supplying power to the gaming machine, the power supply unit E starts supplying power to the main control board from time t1. The power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M increases from the off level (time t1) to the supply level (time t2), and becomes constant at the supply level from time t2. Note that the figure illustrates a case where the time from the start of power supply to the main control board until the power supply voltage reaches the supply level is constant, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the main control board is not limited to this. The time from the start of power supply to the time when the power supply voltage reaches the supply level may be configured to vary (randomly). Further, the case where the time from the start of power supply to the sub control board until the power supply voltage reaches the supply level is constant is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the power supply to the sub control board is started. The time from when the power supply voltage reaches the supply level may be configured to vary (randomly). Even in such a configuration, the minimum value (minimum time) of the time from the start of power supply to the main control board until the power supply voltage reaches the supply level is the minimum value (minimum time) of the start of power supply to the sub control board. It is preferable to configure the voltage so that it is longer than the maximum value (maximum time) of the time required for the power supply voltage to reach the supply level.

After that, the power is cut off at time t3. Due to the occurrence of this power failure, the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M gradually decreases from the supply level (time t3) to the maintenance level (time t4), and is omitted from the time t4 at the maintenance level. It becomes constant. The power supply unit E has a backup power supply composed of a capacitor, and even if the power supply is cut off, the power supply unit E has a substantially constant power supply voltage for a certain period of time (time t4 to time t5). (Maintenance level) can be output (power cutoff processing will be executed when the maintenance level voltage is being supplied). In this example, the time to maintain the maintenance level (time from time t3 to time t5) from the start of execution of the power off processing (detecting the power off) is the time required to execute the timer interrupt processing at least 20 times. It is configured to guarantee (time during which the timer interrupt processing (FIG. 32) can be called and executed 20 times).

After that, the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M gradually decreases from time t5 and becomes an off level at time t6.

<Starting the main program>
The main program executed on the main control board is started from the time ta when the power supply voltage becomes constant from the time t2 to ΔT5. By executing this main program, the process of the main control board START (power on) shown in FIG. 13 described above is executed.

As described above, when the setting key switch is off in the determination process of step 1014 of FIG. 13, the processes of steps 1016 to 1022, 1036 to 1046 and 1300 are executed, and the process of step 1040 causes a timer interrupt. Is started.

Further, in the determination process of step 1014 of FIG. 13, when the setting key switch is turned on, the processes of steps 1028 to 1034 and 1100 are executed.

<Activation of timer interrupt>
When the setting key switch is off, the timer interrupt is activated by the process of step 1040 of FIG. 13, and when the setting key switch is on, the timer interrupt is activated by the process of step 1104 of FIG. .. After the timer interrupt is activated, the timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 32 is called and executed every predetermined cycle T. The period T at which the timer interrupt is executed is 1.8 msec.

<Detection of power failure>
When a power failure occurs, a power failure detection signal is output from the power supply unit E. The main control board M has an input port into which a power failure detection signal is input. The power-off detection signal is a high-level signal when the power-off has not occurred, and is a low-level signal when the power-off has occurred. The main control board M can determine whether or not a power failure has occurred depending on whether the data read from the input port is a high-level signal or a low-level signal.

In this example, the main control board M detects a power failure in the determination process of step 1604 in FIG. Specifically, the main control board M determines that the power failure has occurred when the data read from the input port is a low-level signal both times in the two consecutive timer interrupt processes.

As described above, in this example, the occurrence of power failure is detected by two consecutive timer interrupt processes. Therefore, when a power failure occurs after the timer interrupt is activated by the process of step 1040 of FIG. 13 or the process of step 1104 of FIG. 14, the occurrence of power failure can be detected. On the other hand, if the power failure occurs before the timer interrupt is activated, the occurrence of the power failure cannot be detected.

In this way, when the power supply is cut off after the execution of the main program is started and the power supply is cut off after the timer interrupt is activated by the process of step 1040 in FIG. 13 or the process of step 1104 in FIG. , It is possible to detect that a power failure has occurred due to interrupt processing. When it is detected that a power outage has occurred, the power outage processing shown in FIG. 36 can be executed.

<< Operation of sub-control board >>
<Starting a subprogram>
The subprogram executed on the sub-control board S is started from the time tb when ΔT4 elapses from the time t2 when the power supply voltage becomes constant. By executing this subprogram, the sub-program start process shown in FIG. 38 described above is executed. Note that ΔT4 is shorter than ΔT5 described above, and by starting the sub-control board S before the main control board M, the sub-control board S does not miss the command transmitted from the main control board M. Can be received. In the figure, the timing at which the power supply voltage reaches the supply level after starting the power supply to the main control board M and the timing at which the power supply voltage reaches the supply level after starting the power supply to the sub control board S. Is shown at the same time tb, but the time from the start of power supply to the main control board M until the power supply voltage reaches the supply level and the power supply voltage after the start of power supply to the sub control board S It may be configured so that the time required to reach the supply level is different, and even in such a configuration, from the start of power supply to the main control board M until the main program of the main control board M is started. It is preferable to set the time of The time from when the supply level is reached until the main program of the main control board M is started is from when the power supply voltage on the sub control board S side reaches the supply level until the subprogram of the sub control board S is started. It is preferable to configure it for a longer time than for an hour.

<<< Second aspect >>>
FIG. 88B is a timing chart showing a second aspect of the timing of supplying power to the gaming machine and turning off the power. The second aspect is an aspect in which the power is cut off before the execution of the main program executed on the main control board M is started. That is, the power supply is cut off before the time t2 to ΔT5 when the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the sub-control board S reaches the supply level.

As described above, in the second aspect, the power is cut off before the execution of the main program is started (before the timer interrupt is activated), so that the power is cut off by the main program. This cannot be detected, and the gaming machine stops due to the power failure (the supply voltage reaches a low level) without executing the power off processing shown in FIG. 36.

<< Operation of main control board >>
<Power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board>
Power supply to the gaming machine is started from time t1. By supplying power to the gaming machine, the power supply unit E starts supplying power to the main control board M from time t1. The power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M increases from the off level (time t1) to the supply level (time t2), and becomes constant at the supply level from time t2.

After that, the power is cut off at time t13. Due to the occurrence of this power failure, the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M gradually decreases from the supply level (time t13) to the maintenance level (time t14), and is omitted from the time t14 at the maintenance level. It becomes constant. After that, the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M gradually decreases from time t15 and becomes an off level at time t16.

As described above, in the second aspect, the execution of the main program is started after the power supply is cut off, but the timer interrupt is activated by the process of step 1040 of FIG. 13 and the process of step 1104 of FIG. The power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M is configured to be off-level before this.

In the figure, the first aspect and the second aspect are illustrated, but the configuration applicable to the gaming machine according to this example is as an example.
(1) Immediately after the power supply to the main control board M is started (for example, after the time has elapsed from the start of power supply to the main control board M to execute the timer interrupt process once), the power supply is cut off. The power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M becomes the off level before the start (the execution of the main program is not started).
(2) Start supplying power to the main control board M → Immediately after the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M reaches the supply level (for example, the power supply voltage supplied to the main control board M is the supply level). The power supply is cut off after the time has elapsed since the timer interrupt processing is executed once. → The power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M is turned off before the execution of the main program is started. Become a level (the execution of the main program will not start)
It may be configured as described above.

<<< Relationship between the state of the setting key switch and the power supply state >>>
FIG. 89A is a table showing the relationship between the state of the setting key switch in the first aspect, the power supply state, and the situation, and FIG. 89B is a state of the setting key switch in the second aspect. It is a table showing the relationship between the power supply state and the situation.

<< Relationship between the state of the setting key switch and the power supply state in the first aspect >>
<State 1>
First, in the state 1 of FIG. 89 (a), the gaming machine is in a normal state, that is, a state in which the game is being executed or a state in which the game can be executed, and the setting key switch is “off”. The "power supply status" is "on".

<State 2>
In the state 2, the power is cut off while the setting key switch remains "off", and the "power supply state" becomes "off". At this time, the power off processing of FIG. 36 is executed, and the address of the processing to be executed next in the normal state is saved in the storage area as the return address.

<State 3>
In the state 3, the setting key switch is operated to switch to "on" while the "power supply state" remains "off".

<State 4>
Next, in the state 4, the "power supply state" is switched to "on" by supplying power while the setting key switch is "on". When the "power supply state" becomes "on", the main control board START (power on) process of FIG. 13 is executed. As described above, in the first aspect, the power supply is cut off after the execution of the main program is started, and the main mode of FIG. 13 is before the power supply cutoff occurs (next state 5). The control board START (power on) process can be executed.

In the determination process of step 1014 of FIG. 13 described above, the setting key switch is determined to be on, the process of steps 1028 to 1034 is executed, and the setting change device control process is called and executed in step 1100. , Shifts from the normal state to the setting change mode. In this setting change device control process, the storage area is initialized by the process of step 1102 shown in FIG. In this way, when the setting key switch is "on" and the "power supply state" is "on", the mode shifts to the setting change mode, and then the setting change switch and the start lever are operated. This makes it possible to change the set value. Further, by the process of step 1622 in FIG. 32, the setting change start command is transmitted to the sub-control board S, so that it is possible to notify that the sub-control board S is in the setting change mode.

<State 5>
Next, in the setting change mode, if the power is cut off while the setting change device control process is being executed, the "power supply state" changes to "off". When the power is cut off, the power off processing in FIG. 36 is called and executed, and the processing to be executed next in the setting change device control processing (setting change mode) by the processing in step 1902 is the return address. Is stored in the storage area as.

<State 6>
In the state 6, the setting key switch is operated and the setting key switch is switched to "off" while the "power supply state" remains "off".

<State 7>
In the state 7, power is supplied in the state where the setting key switch is “off”, and the “power supply state” is switched to “on”. When the "power supply state" becomes "on", the main control board START (power on) process of FIG. 13 is executed. In the determination process of step 1014 of FIG. 13, the setting key switch is determined to be “off”, and the process of step 1022 is executed. By the process of step 1022, the process returns to the return address saved in the storage area in the state 5, and the execution is started from the process of the return address. As described above, the return address saved in the storage area in the state 5 is the address of the process to be executed next in the setting change device control process, and by returning, the process of the setting change device control process is immediately executed. Will be done. As described above, in the first aspect, the power supply is turned off in the normal state, and the setting change mode is entered by turning on the setting key switch and turning on the power supply in the situation where the power supply is off. This is the basic operation when shifting to the setting change mode, but even if the power supply is turned off during the setting change mode, the setting key switch is turned off, and then the power supply is turned on. Since the setting change mode is stored as the return address, it is configured to be in the setting change mode. With this configuration, even if the power is cut off during the setting change mode (for example, the game hall is out of power), it is possible to return to the state before the power outage occurred, and the gaming machine is abnormal. It is possible to make it difficult for such an operation to occur.

<< Relationship between the state of the setting key switch and the power supply state in the second aspect >>
<State 1>
In the state 1 of FIG. 89 (b), similarly to the first aspect, the gaming machine is in a normal state, that is, a state in which the game is being executed or a state in which the game can be executed, and the setting key switch is ". It is "off" and the "power supply status" is "on".

<State 2>
In the second state as well, as in the first aspect, the power supply is cut off while the setting key switch remains “off”, and the “power supply state” becomes “off”. At this time, the power off processing of FIG. 36 is executed, and the address of the processing to be executed next in the normal state is saved in the storage area as the return address.

<State 3>
In the state 3, the setting key switch is operated to switch to "on" while the "power supply state" remains "off".

<State 4>
In the state 4, power is supplied while the setting key switch is "on", and the "power supply state" is switched to "on".

<State 5>
In the state 5, the power is cut off while the setting key switch is "on", and the "power supply state" is switched to "off". As described above, in the second aspect, the power supply is cut off before the execution of the main program executed on the main control board M is started. Therefore, in the second aspect, the "power supply state" is once "on" (state 4), but immediately after the "power supply state" related to the state 4 is "on" (for example, timer interrupt processing is performed). After the lapse of time for one execution), the "power supply state" is switched to "off". In other words, the power supply voltage supplied from the power supply unit E to the main control board M is off-level before the main control board START (power on) process of FIG. 13 is executed (or before the timer interrupt is activated). (State 5). Therefore, the setting change device control process is not executed, the return address stored in the storage area is not changed, and the return address saved in the state 2 is stored in the storage area as it is.

<State 6>
Next, in the state 6, the setting key switch is operated while the "power supply state" remains "off", and the setting key switch is switched to "off".

<State 7>
In the state 7, power is supplied in the state where the setting key switch is “off”, and the “power supply state” is switched to “on”. When the "power supply state" becomes "on", the main control board START (power on) process of FIG. 13 is executed. In the determination process of step 1014 of FIG. 13, the setting key switch is determined to be off, and the process of step 1022 is executed. By the process of step 1022, the process returns to the return address saved in the storage area in the state 2, and the execution is started from the return address. As described above, the return address saved in the storage area in the state 2 is the address of the process to be executed next in the normal state, and the process to be executed next in the normal state is executed. As described above, in the second aspect, even when the setting key switch is "on" and the "power supply state" is "on", before the main program of the main control board M is executed. When the power supply is turned "off", even if the setting key switch is turned "off" and then the power supply is turned "on", the mode is not changed to the setting change mode. .. By configuring as in the second aspect, if the power is cut off immediately after the power of the gaming machine is turned on, if the mode is changed to the setting change mode, an unintended malfunction may occur in the gaming machine. , Even if the setting key switch is on, it can be configured not to shift to the setting change mode, and a gaming machine that is less likely to cause problems can be configured.

<<< Control of medal grant and output control of payout sound >>
As described above, when a small winning combination is won (when the symbol combination corresponding to the small winning combination is stopped and displayed), the player is given the number of medals to be paid out corresponding to the winning small winning combination.

<< Processing of medal award >>
The process of awarding medals includes a process of adding the number of credits and awarding them, and a process of actually paying out the game medals to the outside of the gaming machine and awarding them.

<Addition processing of credits>
When the current number of credits is less than the maximum number of stored credits (for example, less than 50), the CPUC100 of the main control board M adds the number of credits according to the number of payouts until the number of credits reaches the maximum number of stored credits. This credit number addition process is executed by the arithmetic process of the CPUC100 of the main control board M.

<Game medal payout processing>
When the current number of credits exceeds the maximum number of stored credits, the CPUC100 of the main control board M awards medals by driving the hopper H40 and paying out medals from the medal payout device H. The payout process from the medal payout device H is executed by outputting a drive signal from the main control board M to the hopper H40.

<< Mode of medal award >>
Depending on the current number of credits and the number of medals to be granted, the process shifts from the credit number addition process only, the game medal payout process only, and the credit number addition process to the game medal payout process ( There are three types of modes (execution of both credit number addition processing and medal payout processing).

<Aspect of credit addition processing only>
When the current number of credits is equal to or less than the maximum number of stored credits, the CPUC100 of the main control board M adds the number of credits according to the number of payouts until the number of credits reaches the maximum number of stored credits. If the maximum number of stored cards is not reached even after adding the number of payouts, the process of granting medals is completed only by adding the number of credits.

<Aspects for shifting from credit number addition processing to game medal payout processing>
When the current number of credits is equal to or less than the maximum number of stored credits, the CPUC100 of the main control board M adds the number of credits according to the number of payouts until the number of credits reaches the maximum number of stored credits. When the number of credits reaches the maximum number of stored credits, the CPUC100 of the main control board M switches from the processing of adding the number of credits to the processing of paying out game medals. The CPUC100 of the main control board M drives the hopper H40 to pay out the remaining number of game medals obtained by subtracting the credit addition amount from the number of payouts from the medal payout device H. The sum of the added amount of credits and the number of game medals paid out from the medal payout device H is the number of payouts corresponding to the winning small winning combination.

In this way, when shifting from the credit number addition process to the game medal payout process, the CPUC100 of the main control board M switches from the credit addition process to the game medal payout process.

<Aspects only for paying out game medals>
When the current number of credits has already reached the maximum number of stored cards, the CPUC100 of the main control board M outputs a drive signal to the hopper H40 and pays out the game medals for the number of medals to be paid out from the medal payout device H.

<< Specific example >>
For example, as shown in FIG. 90, when the current number of credits is 47 and a player is given a medal with 5 payouts, the CPUC100 of the main control board M first sets the number of credits to 1. Add one by one. Specifically, the CPUC100 of the main control board M increases the number of credits to 48, 49, 50. In the example shown in FIG. 90, the number of credits displayed on the credit display device is 47 → 48 (first sheet (time t1)) → 49 (second sheet (time t2)) → 50 (third sheet (time t2)). It changes with t3)). When the number of credits reaches 50, the maximum number of stored cards (50 cards) is reached, and the number of credits cannot be increased any more.

Next, the CPUC100 of the main control board M switches from the credit addition process to the game medal payout process, outputs a drive signal to the hopper H40, and subtracts 3 credits from the 5 payouts. 2 cards are paid out from the medal payout device H.

In the example shown in FIG. 90, the CPUC100 of the main control board M outputs a drive signal to the hopper H40 at time t4 to start the payout process. The fourth game medal is paid out from time t4 to time t5, and the fifth game medal is paid out from time t6 to time t7. The CPUC100 of the main control board M counts the number of medals paid out from the medal payout device H, detects that the fifth game medal has been paid out at time t7, and ends the payout process. ..

<< Various times >>
<Unit processing time for credit addition processing and unit processing time for game medal payout processing>
In the credit addition process by the CPUC100 of the main control board M, a unit processing time a is required to increase the number of credits from m to the number of credits m + 1. For example, as shown in FIG. 90, it takes time t2-time t1 = a to increase the number of credits from 48 (first card) to 49 (second card), and the number of credits is 49 (second card). It takes time t3-time t2 = a to increase the number of credits from 50 (third card). In the credit addition process, the unit processing time a is substantially constant.

Further, in the process of paying out the game medals from the medal payout device H, a unit processing time c is required from the payout of the nth game medal to the payout of the n + 1th game medal. For example, as shown in FIG. 90, it takes time t6-time t4 = c from the payout of the fourth game medal to the payout of the fifth game medal. In the game medal payout process, the unit processing time c is substantially constant.

One unit processing time a can be defined by the difference in timing between two consecutive addition processes. For example, the unit processing time a is the difference between the timing of the (first sheet) addition process from 47 to 48 (time t1) and the timing of the (second sheet) addition process from 48 to 49 (time t2). Or, it is the difference between the timing (time t2) of the (second) addition process from 48 to 49 and the timing (time t3) of the (third sheet) addition process from 49 to 50.

Further, one unit processing time c can be defined by the difference in the start timing of two consecutive payout processes. For example, the unit processing time c is the difference between the start timing of the processing of the fifth sheet (time t6) and the start timing of the addition processing of the fourth sheet (time t4). In this way, the unit processing times a and c may be specified so as to have a constant cycle.

<Switching time from credit addition processing to game medal payout processing e>
As described above, the number of credits is added until the number of credits reaches the maximum number of stored credits, and if all the number of payouts is not given, the process is switched to the game medal payout process. It takes a switching time e for the CPUC100 of the main control board M to switch from the credit number addition process to the game medal payout process.

<< Comparison of time >>

<Unit processing time a and unit processing time c>
The unit processing time a described above is different from the unit processing time c. The unit processing time a is the time determined by the arithmetic processing of the CPUC100 of the main control board M, and the unit processing time c is the time required for the arithmetic processing of the CPUC100 of the main control board M and the time required to drive the medal payout device H. It consists of both. The unit processing time c can be made longer than the unit processing time a. By doing so, it is possible to accurately control the payout including the driving time of the medal payout device H.

As described above, the unit processing time c can be made equal to the unit processing time a by adjusting the time required to drive the medal payout device H. By doing so, the payout process can be expedited.

<Switching time e>
The switching time e is different from the unit processing time a. The switching time e can be made longer than the unit processing time a. By lengthening the switching time e, it is possible to stably switch from the credit number addition process to the game medal payout process, and smoothly switch from the arithmetic process of the CPUC100 of the main control board M to the drive of the hopper H40. ..

Further, the switching time e can be made shorter than the unit processing time a. By shortening the switching time e, it is possible to quickly switch from the credit number addition process to the game medal payout process, and by ending the game medal payout process early, the next game can be started immediately. , The consumption of game medals can be increased, the profit of the game hall can be increased, and the operating efficiency of the game machine can be improved.

In this way, by making the switching time e different from the unit processing time a, when switching to the game medal payout process, the payout is different from a fixed cycle, and the game medal starts to be paid out to the medal tray. Expectations can be given to the game.

The switching time e can be made to match the unit processing time a. When the switching time e is made to match the unit processing time a, medals can be given to the player at a fixed cycle, and the same medals are given in both the credit number addition process and the game medal payout process. It is possible to give a sense of security by showing the player that.

<< Output of game medium addition sound >> When the CPUC100 of the main control board M starts the credit addition process (time t1), the payout start command is output to the sub-control board S. Upon receiving this payout start command, the sub-control board S starts outputting the game medium imparting sound from the speaker S20.

Further, the CPUC100 of the main control board M outputs a payout end command to the sub-control board S when the payout of the game medals is completed (time t7). Upon receiving this payout end command, the sub-control board S ends the output of the game medium imparting sound from the speaker S20. As described above, the CPUC100 of the main control board M counts the number of game medals paid out from the medal payout device H, and all of the payout number of game medals corresponding to the winning small wins are given to the player. Judge whether or not it has been granted. When the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines that all of the game medals of the number of payouts corresponding to the winning small wins have been awarded, the CPUC100 of the main control board M ends the output of the payout end command to the sub-control board S and emits the payout end command from the speaker S20. The output of the game medium addition sound is finished. When the game medium-added sound is repeatedly reproduced (output) with a sound having a fixed cycle, the game medium-added sound is immediately transmitted at the timing when the sub-control board S side receives the payout end command. The output may be terminated, or the output of the game medium-added sound may be terminated at the timing when the cycle of the game medium-added sound output at the timing when the sub-control board S side receives the payout end command. It may be configured to do so.

The game medium-added sound is a sound output from the speaker S20 by reproducing the unit-assigned sound data at least once. The unit-assigned sound data is stored in advance in the RAM of the sub-control board S. As shown in FIG. 90, the reproduction time for one unit-assigned sound data is d, and the CPUSC of the sub-control board S reads the unit-assigned sound data from the RAM and receives the payout start command and then the payout end command. The game medium-assigned sound is output from the speaker S20 by repeatedly playing back the unit-assigned sound data a plurality of times until the data is received.

<First aspect>
The first aspect of the game medium-assigned sound shown in FIG. 90 is a mode in which the unit-assigned sound data is repeatedly reproduced every playback time d from the time when the payout start command is received. By playing in this way, the game medium-added sound is output at regular intervals. As described above, even when switching from the credit number addition process to the game medal payout process, the game medium granting sound is output at regular intervals, so that the player does not feel uncomfortable with the payout and the credits are paid. It is possible to give a sense of security by showing the player that both the number addition process and the game medal payout process give the same value.

<Second aspect>
Further, in the second aspect of the game medium giving sound shown in FIG. 90, the unit giving sound data is played every playback time d from the time when the payout start command is received, and only the time f is completed after the credit number addition process is completed. This is an embodiment in which the unit-assigned sound data is reproduced, and then, at time t4, the game medal payout process is started and the unit-assigned sound data is reproduced again. When switching to the game medal payout process, the game medium addition sound is output at a timing different from a certain cycle, so that the game can be given an uplifting feeling and a feeling of expectation that the game medal starts to be paid out to the medal tray. ..

If the game medals of the hopper H40 are exhausted and a hopper error occurs while the game medals are being paid out from the medal payout device H (for example, if it is determined to be Yes in the process of step 1279), the sub The control board S stops the output of the game medium addition sound, and outputs a sound indicating that a hopper error has occurred. When the game medals are supplied to the hopper H40 and can be paid out, the main control board M again transmits a payout start command to the sub control board S, and the sub control board S starts outputting the game medium imparting sound. .. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to this, and even if a hopper error occurs, the game medium-added sound will be continuously output, but the volume of the game medium-added sound will be the sound indicating that the hopper error has occurred. It outputs at a volume lower than the volume (volume = 0 may be set), and when the hopper error is canceled, the output of the sound indicating that the hopper error has occurred is terminated, and the sound added to the game medium is used. It may be configured to restore the volume.

<<< Arrangement of integrated circuits on the board >>
FIG. 91 is a front view showing the arrangement of various electronic components mounted on the main control board M. FIG. 92 is a side view showing the arrangement of electronic components mounted on the main control board M.

The main control board M has a substantially plate-shaped and rectangular printed circuit board MP. A CPUC100, an IC, a resistor, a connector, and the like are mainly mounted on the front side of the printed circuit board MP, and a circuit pattern mainly composed of conductors is formed on the back side of the printed circuit board MP. The main control board M (printed circuit board MP) is composed of two longitudinal end portions ML1 and ML2 that are parallel to each other and along the longitudinal direction, and two minor end portions MS1 and MS2 that are parallel to each other and along the lateral direction. It has a rectangular shape.

In this example, the main control board M is mounted so as to stand upright in the housing of the gaming machine. When the main control board M is installed upright, the longitudinal end portions ML1 and ML2 are arranged along the horizontal direction, and the short end portions MS1 and MS2 are arranged along the vertical direction. The longitudinal end ML1 is located on the upper side and the longitudinal end ML2 is located on the lower side. Further, when viewed from the front side of the printed circuit board MP, the short end portion MS1 is located on the left side of the short end portion MS2, and the short end portion MS2 is located on the right side of the short end portion MS1.

Hereinafter, the longitudinal end ML1 side is referred to as the upper side, the longitudinal end ML2 side is referred to as the lower side, the short end MS1 side is referred to as the left side, and the short end MS2 side is referred to as the right side.

<CPUC100>
The CPUC100 has a long shape, the length in the longitudinal direction is CLL, and the length in the lateral direction is CSL. The CPUC 100 has a plurality of pins (not shown), and the plurality of pins are formed so as to project from the main body portion. When the CPUC 100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP, a plurality of pins form an electrical connection, and different electrical signals flow through the plurality of pins. Therefore, in the work of attaching the CPUC100 to the printed circuit board MP, it is necessary to attach the CPUC100 in an appropriate orientation so that the CPUC100 can perform a desired operation. The first pin (1P shown in FIG. 91) of the CPUC100 is used as a reference pin for arranging the CPUC100. A mark for visually recognizing the first pin (1P) is formed on the main body of the CPUC 100, and a notch (not shown) for visually recognizing the orientation of the CPUC 100 is formed.

In this example, the CPUC 100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP so that the longitudinal direction of the CPUC 100 coincides with (parallel to) the longitudinal direction of the main control board M. In this example, as shown in FIG. 91, by arranging the CPUC100 so that the first pin of the CPUC100 is located on the lower left side, the CPUC100 is arranged so as to be aligned with the direction of the IC described later. When attaching the CPUC100 to the printed circuit board MP, it is possible to reduce mistakes in attaching the CPUC100 in the wrong direction.

Further, in general, various character information (not shown) such as a model number and a maker name is printed on the main body of the CPUC 100. The character information is printed so as to be separated from the first pin side along the longitudinal direction of the CPUC 100. It is preferable that the character information such as the model number and the manufacturer name can be easily visually recognized while the CPUC 100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP. As described above, by arranging the CPUC100 so that the first pin of the CPUC100 is located on the lower left side, the CPUC100 can be arranged in an direction in which the printed model number, the manufacturer name, and the like can be easily visually recognized.

When the CPUC100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP, the pin numbers of the CPUC100 increase in order counterclockwise starting from the first pin (1P) when viewed from the front side of the printed circuit board MP. ..

<IC>
Various ICs (integrated circuits) are also mounted on the front side of the printed circuit board MP. The IC has a long shape, the length in the longitudinal direction is ILL, and the length in the lateral direction is ISL. Like the CPUC100, the IC also has a plurality of pins (not shown), and the plurality of pins are formed so as to project from the main body. When the IC is attached to the printed circuit board MP, a plurality of pins form an electrical connection, and different electrical signals flow through the plurality of pins. Therefore, even in the work of attaching the IC to the printed circuit board MP, it is necessary to attach the IC in an appropriate orientation so that the IC can perform the desired operation. Therefore, the first pin of the IC (1P shown in FIG. 91) is also used as a reference pin for arranging the IC. A mark for visually recognizing the first pin (1P) is formed on the main body of the IC, and a notch (not shown) for visually recognizing the direction of the IC is formed.

In this example, the IC is attached to the printed circuit board MP so that the longitudinal direction of the IC coincides with (parallel to) the longitudinal direction of the CPUC 100 and the longitudinal direction of the main control board M. Further, the IC is arranged on the printed circuit board MP so that the first pin of the IC is located on the lower left side. By arranging the IC so that the first pin of the IC is always located on the lower left side in this way, all the ICs are arranged in the same direction, and the work of attaching the IC to the printed circuit board MP At this time, it is possible to reduce mistakes such as mounting the IC in the wrong direction.

Further, in general, various character information (not shown) such as a model number and a maker name is printed on the main body of the IC. The character information is printed so as to be separated from the first pin side along the longitudinal direction of the IC. It is preferable that the character information such as the model number and the manufacturer name of the IC can be easily visually recognized while the IC is attached to the printed circuit board MP. As described above, by arranging the IC so that the first pin of the IC is located on the lower left side, the IC is arranged so that the printed model number, manufacturer name, etc. can be easily seen. You can also.

When the IC is attached to the printed circuit board MP, the pin numbers of the IC increase in order counterclockwise starting from the first pin (1P) when viewed from the front side of the printed circuit board MP. ..

<Resistance>
Various resistors are also attached to the front side of the printed circuit board MP to form an electrical connection with other electronic components. The IC has a long shape, the length in the longitudinal direction is RLL, and the length in the lateral direction is RSL.

<Connector>
A connector is also attached to the front side of the printed circuit board MP, and an electrical connection is formed with other electronic components. The main control board M is connected to the sub control board S or the like via a connector, and can transmit and receive various signals.

<Interval between CPUC100 and IC>
As shown by the broken line in FIG. 91, only the resistor is arranged inside the predetermined range CSR1 around the CPUC 100, and the IC is not arranged. The predetermined range CSR1 is a range in which the length of the CPUC 100 from the outer peripheral COR is equal to or less than the predetermined length. Here, the predetermined length can be, for example, at least the length CSL in the lateral direction of the CPUC 100. Various currents (such as a time-varying current, for example, a high-frequency signal) flow through the IC, and the IC can be a source of noise, which may affect the operation of the CPUC 100. In this way, by not arranging the IC inside the predetermined range CSR1 around the CPUC100, the IC is arranged at a position separated from the CPUC100 by a certain distance (for example, the length CSL), and the noise emitted from the IC is generated. , It is possible not to affect the operation of the CPUC100.

Further, the predetermined length of the CPUC 100 from the outer peripheral COR may be at least the length RLL in the longitudinal direction of the resistor. Since a current flows through the resistor, the resistor can be a heat source, which may affect the operation of the CPUC100. Therefore, by not arranging the resistor inside the predetermined range CSR1 around the CPUC100, the resistor is arranged at a position separated from the CPUC100 by a certain distance (for example, length RLL) and emitted from the resistor. The heat generated can be prevented from affecting the operation of the CPUC 100.

<Relationship between the height of CPUC100, the height of IC, and the height of other parts>
FIG. 92 is a side view showing the heights of the various electronic components shown in FIG. 91. As shown in FIG. 92, the height CHT of the CPUC100 is the highest, then the height IHT of the IC is the highest, and the height RHT of the resistance is the lowest. As shown in FIG. 91, only the parts having a height CHT of the CPUC 100 or less are arranged inside the predetermined range CSR2 around the CPUC100. The predetermined range CSR2 is a range in which the length of the CPUC 100 from the outer peripheral COR is equal to or less than the predetermined length. Here, the predetermined length can be, for example, the length RLL in the longitudinal direction of the resistor.

In the work of attaching the CPUC100 to the printed circuit board MP, an attachment tool (not shown) is used. The mounting tool is a tool for mounting the CPUC100 by sandwiching the CPUC100 at the tip of the mounting tool and bringing it close to the printed circuit board MP. Since the structure is such that the CPUC 100 is sandwiched between the tips of the mounting tools, the tip of the mounting tool is arranged around the CPUC 100 when the CPUC 100 is sandwiched. Therefore, when mounting the CPUC100, the tip of the mounting tool must also be brought close to the printed circuit board MP, and a space for the tip of the mounting tool is provided so that the tip of the mounting tool does not interfere with other electronic components. It is necessary to secure it.

Therefore, only the parts having a height CHT of the CPUC 100 or less are arranged in the area CSR2 around the position where the CPUC100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP. By doing so, even if the tip of the mounting tool is closest to the printed circuit board MP, the tip of the mounting tool does not interfere with other parts. Region CSR2 is a range in which the length of the CPUC 100 from the outer peripheral COR is equal to or less than a predetermined length. Here, the predetermined length can be, for example, at least the length RLL in the longitudinal direction of the resistor.

It should be noted that only the parts having a height of less than the height CHT of the CPUC100 are arranged only in the area around the position where the CPUC100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP, and the area around the position where the CPUC100 is attached to the printed circuit board MP in the printed circuit board MP. Outside, components having a height of CHT or higher of CPUC100 may be attached, or all components attached to the printed circuit board MP may be configured to be components having a height of CHT of CPUC100 or less.

In this way, by arranging only electronic components lower than the height CHT of the CPUC100 inside the predetermined range CSR2 around the CPUC100, it is possible to secure a space in which the tip of the mounting tool can be approached. Even if the mounting tool is used, the CPUC 100 can be mounted on the printed circuit board MP without damaging other electronic components.

In the above-mentioned example, the main control board M has been described as an example, but all the boards on which electronic components such as CPU and IC are mounted, such as the sub control board S, the door board D, the rotating cylinder board K, and the power supply board E. Can be applied to.

<<< Structure related to AT lottery >>>
Next, with reference to FIG. 93, the configuration of the AT state transition control process applicable to the rotating drum type gaming machine according to this example will be described in detail. It should be added that the configuration illustrated in the figure is applicable to all the above-mentioned configurations when the configuration is configured to have an AT.

First, FIG. 93 is a flowchart of the AT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 1400 of FIG. 18 in the present embodiment. First, in step 1401-1, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to AT is a state in which AT lottery is possible. In the figure, there are no plurality of gaming states having different probabilities of winning the AT lottery such as a low probability state and a high probability state. For example, one gaming state such as the high probability state in the present embodiment is not provided. It is configured so that the AT lottery can be executed only in. Further, as a difference from the present embodiment, the AT lottery is not executed based on the winning of the BB.

In the case of Yes in step 1401-1, in step 1401-2, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets “2” as the AT lottery type and temporarily stores it in a predetermined RAM area. Here, the AT lottery type is a type for identifying the winning probability when executing the AT lottery, which is provided to reduce the data capacity required for executing the AT lottery. Next, in step 1401-3, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the condition device related to the game has no setting difference (condition device having no setting difference in the lottery probability). In the modified example shown in the figure, the condition devices having no setting difference are watermelon B, cherry, watermelon A, replay (may be all replays, or some replays), It is a push order bell, and in this process, it is determined whether or not the condition device with no setting difference has been won. In addition, although there is a setting difference between the lottery probability of the loss and the common bell (there is a setting difference), in this process, it is configured so as not to determine whether or not the loss or the common bell has been won. ing. It is preferable that the predetermined RAM area for storing the AT lottery type is different from the RAM area for storing the winning number and the effect group number described above. With such a configuration, an area for storing the winning number and an effect group, which is an area in which the information on the condition device having a setting difference in the winning probability and the information on the condition device having no setting difference in the winning probability are stored separately. An area for storing numbers and an area for storing AT lottery types, which is an area in which information about a condition device having a setting difference in winning probability and information about a condition device having no setting difference in winning probability are stored without distinction. Can be configured not to be confused.

In the case of Yes in step 1401-3, in step 1401-4, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the AT lottery type table, sets the AT lottery type, and sets the AT lottery type in the predetermined RAM area (in step 1401-2). (The same RAM area as the predetermined RAM area) is temporarily stored (overwritten), and the process proceeds to step 1401-5. Even if No in step 1401-3, the process proceeds to step 1401-5. Here, the AT lottery table in the middle right of the figure will be described in detail. In this modified example, when the condition device with no setting difference is won in the situation where the AT lottery can be executed, when the watermelon B is won, "0" is selected as the AT lottery type, and when the cherry is won. Is "0" as the AT lottery type, "1" as the AT lottery type when the watermelon A is won, "2" as the AT lottery type when the replay is won, and "2" when the push order bell is won. It is configured to set "2" as the AT lottery type.

Next, in step 1401-5, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the AT lottery based on the set AT lottery type. Here, as shown in the lower right of the figure, the probability of winning the AT lottery is 56/256 when the AT lottery type is "0", and 18 / when the AT lottery type is "1". It is 256, and when the AT lottery type is "2", it is 1/256, and it is "0 → 1 → 2" in order from the one that is easy to win the AT lottery. Next, in step 1401-6, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the AT lottery executed in step 1401-5 has been won. In the case of Yes in step 1401-6, in step 1401-7, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets a predetermined value (for example, 50) as the number of AT initial games in the AT counter. In this modification, unlike the present embodiment, the number of AT initial games is set in the AT counter in the AT state transition control process, and the number of AT initial games is set in the AT state start control process. It is configured not to (the number of AT games may be added if the number of AT games is added). Next, in step 1401-8, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines the state related to AT after the next game to "AT in progress state", and shifts to the next process (process in step 1430). Even if No in step 1401-1 or 1401-6, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1430).

In a conventional gaming machine, as an AT lottery, a common lottery process that does not refer to a winning combination and a lottery process that is executed when a condition device having no setting difference is won (a lottery process that refers to a winning combination) are performed. When configured to have, it was necessary to execute the AT lottery at least twice, but by providing the AT lottery type as shown in the figure, a common lottery process that does not refer to the winning combination (in the figure, in the figure, The process of step 1401-2 is supported) and the lottery process executed when the condition device having no setting difference is won (in the figure, the process of step 1401-4 is supported). Can be executed in one lottery process (in the figure, the process of steps 1401-6 corresponds to).

In the above, the configuration of a rotating cylinder type gaming machine has been illustrated as a gaming machine, but the above configuration is applied to various gaming models such as pachinko gaming machines, rock-paper-scissors gaming machines, arrange balls, game machines, and casino machines. can.

Of the above configurations, the configuration related to the setting of the setting change mode, the setting confirmation mode, the setting key switch, the setting / reset button, etc. (for example, the configuration illustrated in FIG. 59) is also applicable to the pachinko gaming machine having the set value. Applicable.

<<< Configuration related to push order navigation applicable to the gaming machine according to this example >>>
The gaming machine according to this example is configured to be able to execute push order navigation. Here, the execution mode of the push order navigation applicable to this example will be described in detail below. It should be added that the configuration described in detail below is applicable to all embodiments.

Further, regarding the push order navigation in this example, the following configuration is referred to as a push order navigation.
(1) The display of the operation mode of the stop button advantageous to the player on the push order display device D270 controlled by the main control board M is referred to as push order navigation. As a specific example, by displaying "= 3", it is possible to instruct the pressing order of "middle->left->right". Further, the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 may be referred to as an instruction and instruction display, and a game for executing the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 may be referred to as an instruction game.
(2) Displaying the operation mode (an image suggesting) of the stop button advantageous to the player on the effect display device S40 controlled by the sub-control board S is referred to as push order navigation. As a specific example, by displaying "123", it is possible to instruct (suggest) the pressing order of "left → middle → right".
(3) Outputting a voice suggesting an operation mode of the stop button advantageous to the player from the speaker S20 controlled by the sub-control board S is referred to as push order navigation. As a specific example, it is possible to instruct (suggest) that the left stop button should be operated as the first stop button by outputting "left" when the start lever is operated.
(4) When the reel window frame lamp D310 controlled by the sub-control board S lights up (blinks) so as to suggest an operation mode of the stop button which is advantageous to the player, it is referred to as push order navigation. As a specific example, when the start lever is operated, the reel window frame lamp D310 corresponding to the left reel and the left stop button lights up, instructing (suggestion) that the left stop button should be operated as the first stop button. It is possible.
(5) The stop button lamp S60 provided inside the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) controlled by the main control board M or the sub control board S is a player. Lighting (blinking) so as to suggest an operation mode of the stop button, which is advantageous to the user, is referred to as push-order navigation. As a specific example, when the start lever is operated, the left stop button D41 corresponding to the left reel lights up, so that it is possible to instruct (suggest) that the left stop button should be operated as the first stop button.

In the following, the push order navigation is displayed for the game in which the push order combination (the combination such as the push order bell, the push order replay combination, etc., in which the number of payouts and the transition mode of the RT state may differ depending on the push order) is determined as the winning combination. The timing at which is started and the timing at which push order navigation ends will be described. By determining the push order combination as the winning combination in the AT state, it is possible to execute the push order navigation that informs the player of the most advantageous stop button operation mode (reel stop order and stop button operation timing). It is configured as.

<< Configuration related to the start of display of push order navigation >>
<Execution mode of push order navigation when there is no weight>
First, if there is no weight, in other words, the push order when the game is executed by operating the start lever when the minimum game time has elapsed (the timer value of the game interval minimum time timer M70 is 0). The execution mode of the navigation will be described below.

<Structure 1>
First, the configuration of FIG. 94 will be described. The state related to AT is the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the start lever is operated to start the rotation of the reel in the situation where the minimum game time has elapsed. The process is executed and the reel starts rotating (executed in step 1260 of FIG. 18). In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

After that, immediately after executing the rotation body rotation process, "= 3" is displayed as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270. Here, as an example of the push order navigation in the push order display device D270,
"= 1": Instruct the pressing order of "Left → Middle → Right""=2": Indicate the pressing order of "Left → Right → Middle""=3": Indicate the pressing order of "Middle → Left → Right" Instruction "= 4": Instruct the pressing order of "middle → right → left""=5": Instruct the pressing order of "right → left → middle""=6": Instruct the pressing order of "right → middle → left" Is configured as instructed.

The display mode when the push order navigation is executed by the push order display device D270 is not limited to the above-mentioned display mode. For example, the right digit (lower digit) without displaying "=". A number may be displayed only on the right digit, or a display mode other than the number corresponding to the stop button (or reel) may be displayed only on the right digit (lower digit). In addition, the right digit (lower digit) is configured to correspond to the stop button (or reel) to be stopped next time, and the left digit (upper digit) is configured to indicate the push order of the entire game. May be good. In such a configuration, the display mode of the right digit (lower digit) may change for each stop operation of the stop button, while the left digit (upper digit) is the same regardless of the stop operation of the stop button. It becomes a display mode.

After "= 3" is displayed as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270, "123" is displayed as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. Here, as an example of push order navigation in the effect display device S40,
"123": Instruct the pressing order of "left → middle → right""132": Instruct the pressing order of "left → right → middle""213": Instruct the pressing order of "middle → left → right""312"": Instruct the pressing order of"middle->right-> left "" 231 ": Instruct the pressing order of"right->left-> middle "" 321 ": Instruct the pressing order of"right->middle-> left " Has been done.

The display mode when the push order navigation is executed by the effect display device S40 is not limited to the above-mentioned display mode, and may be a display mode other than the arithmetic number, for example, a Chinese numeral. , An image of a character that is not a number, an image of a symbol, or the like may be used. In addition to the display mode corresponding to all the stop buttons, for example, "1-" that instructs only the first stop.
You may execute push order navigation such as "-" (push order navigation that notifies that the left stop button should be operated as the first stop).

The "display" may mean that all the elements to be displayed have been displayed, or that the elements to be displayed have started to be displayed. For example, to display "123" on the effect display device S40 may mean that all the "123" are displayed on the effect display device S40, or the display of "123" is started on the effect display device S40 (. It may be that an effect at the start of display has occurred). Similarly, "end of display" may mean that all the elements whose display should be terminated are not displayed, or that a display transition for hiding the elements whose display should be terminated may be started. For example, when the display of "123" is finished on the effect display device S40, all "123" may not be displayed on the effect display device S40, or one of the displays of "123" on the effect display device S40. It may be assumed that the part has begun to be erased (an effect at the end of the display has occurred, etc.). Similarly, "clearing the display" may mean that all the elements for which the display should be erased are not displayed, or may mean that a display transition for hiding the elements for which the display should be erased is started. .. For example, erasing the display of "123" on the effect display device S40 may mean that all "123" are not displayed on the effect display device S40, or one of the displays of "123" on the effect display device S40. It may be assumed that the part has begun to be erased (an effect at the time of erasing the display has occurred, etc.). Similarly, to erase the display of "1" on the effect display device S40, the effect display device is operated after the left stop button is operated in a situation where all "123" are displayed on the effect display device S40. It may be that "1" is not displayed in S40, or a part of the display of "1" has begun to be erased by the effect display device S40 (an effect at the time of display erasure has occurred, etc.).

After the push order navigation is displayed on the effect display device S40, the operation of the stop button becomes effective. After the reel rotation starts, the reel driving state changes from the reel acceleration state to the reel constant speed state, so that the operation of the stop button becomes effective. In the instruction game, the player operates the stop button after confirming the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 or the effect display device S40, rather than enabling the stop button as shown in the figure. By making it possible to display the push order navigation in front, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the player operates the stop button before confirming the push order (a situation in which the push order is mistaken).

Further, in FIG. 94, the push order navigation in the push order display device D270 is displayed (display starts) before the push order navigation in the effect display device S40. Here, the display of the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 will be described. When "Winning-A3" is determined as a winning combination, the CPUC100 of the main control board M issues a command related to winning / replay winning information as a control command in step 1622 as a timer interrupt processing on the sub-control board. Send to the S side. The CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the command processing of step 2250 based on the command related to the winning / replay winning information received from the CPUC100 of the main control board M (as the command processing, push order navigation such as step 2360 is performed). Execute push order navigation display processing for display).

Here, the processing when the push order navigation is displayed on the effect display device S40 controlled on the sub-control board S side will be described in detail. First, after the CPUSC of the sub-control board S receives the command related to the winning / replay winning information from the CPUC100 of the main control board M, the command data is saved, the command analysis process is performed, and the sub-main board (in the sub-control board S). The process of transmitting the command related to the display mode of the push order navigation from the effect control board (the board in the sub control board S) is sequentially performed, and the push order navigation is displayed from the reception of the command related to the winning / replay winning information. It takes about 16 ms to transmit the command according to the aspect. Further, the effect control board receives a command related to the display mode of the push order navigation, executes a drawing process when there is no problem in the content of the command, and the drawing process requires about 32 ms. As an example, the command transmitted by the main control board M to the sub control board S side is a command related to winning / replay winning information, but this is just an example and can be used as another command such as a command related to the production group number. It may be appropriately designed according to the execution timing of the desired effect.

Further, when the push order navigation is displayed by the push order display device D270 controlled by the main control board M side, the push order display device D270 is configured to be lit by dynamic lighting, so that the timer interrupt processing is performed. Assuming that the cycle is 2 ms, since the five 7-segment LED units are sequentially lit for each timer interrupt process, it takes a maximum of about 10 ms to complete the lighting. Since it is configured in this way, the push order navigation is displayed after the trigger for displaying the push order navigation (for example, the operation of the start lever) occurs on the push order display device D270 controlled by the main control board M side. An opportunity to display the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 controlled by the sub control board S side rather than the time until completion (for example, reception of a command related to winning / replay winning information from the main control board M side). ) Is generated and the push order navigation display is completed for a longer period of time.

Here, the process executed by the CPUC100 of the main control board M will be described in detail as the period during which the display of the push order navigation in this example can be started. The gaming machine is designed so that the CPUC100 of the main control board M controls peripheral devices and the like to advance the game. The process executed by the CPUC100 of the main control board M in this example will be described only for specific steps in order to simplify the description, but it should be added that this is not the case. For example, if the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines that the start lever D50 has been operated in the determination process of step 1251, the reel rotation start preparation process is executed in step 1550. Then, by determining that the reel rotation start standby state start timing in step 6102 has been reached, it is determined whether or not the reel acceleration state start timing in step 6106 has been reached. Then, in steps 6108 and 6110, the reel driving state is updated to the reel acceleration state, and the reel rotation starts. Here, the period from step 6102 to step 6108 is a period corresponding to the weight period until the start of reel rotation. For example, from the game start timing (reel rotation start timing) by the game interval minimum time timer M70 as a predetermined condition. It is a period that occurs because the time to be secured (4.1 seconds in this example) is not satisfied by the next game start timing (reel rotation start timing), and is sometimes referred to as the minimum game time. Next, in step 6114, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the reel acceleration state end timing of step 6114 has been reached. Then, the CPUC100 of the main control board M updates the reel drive state to the reel constant speed state in steps 6116 and 6118, performs processing to maintain the reel constant speed state, and then enables the operation of the stop button. The process of making is executed. In this example, any timing within the period during which the CPUC100 of the main control board M executes the above processing, in other words, any time from the time when the start lever operation is executed to the time when the stop button operation becomes effective. It suffices if it is configured so that the push order navigation is displayed (display starts) at the timing of.

As described above, the period from the timing when the start lever D50 is operated to the time when the operation of the stop button becomes effective has been described according to the process executed by the CPUC100 of the main control board M. However, in this example, the main control board M has been described. According to the process executed by the CPUC100, the start lever operation → the minimum game time has elapsed → the reel rotation start → the reel acceleration state → the reel constant speed state → the operation of the stop button is effective (the operation of the reel stop button is also effective). The period will be specified separately. For example, FIG. 94 illustrates a case where the push order navigation by the push order display device D270 is executed immediately after the rotation start processing is executed, and the push order navigation by the effect display device S40 is executed during the reel acceleration state. There is.

In addition, in FIG. 94, the case where the push order navigation by the effect display device S40 is executed in the reel acceleration state is illustrated, but the main control board M transmits a command to the sub control board S side, and then the sub control board. It means that S executes the drawing process and the push order navigation is displayed during the reel acceleration state, and the configuration related to the display of the push order navigation on the sub control board S side is configured as follows. May be good.
(1) Start lever operation → Minimum game time elapses → Main control board M executes rotation cylinder rotation start processing to start reel rotation → Update reel drive state to acceleration state → Main control board M pushes order display device D270 The push order navigation is displayed by dynamic lighting → The main control board M sends the command related to the winning / replay winning information to the sub control board S side → The sub control board S side receives the command related to the winning / replay winning information → The sub-control board S side executes the drawing process with the command, and the push order navigation is displayed on the effect display device S40 → The reel drive state is updated to the constant speed state (2) Start lever operation → Minimum game time elapses → The main control board M executes the rotating cylinder rotation start process to start the reel rotation → the reel drive state is updated to the acceleration state → the main control board M displays the push order navigation with the push order display device D270 by dynamic lighting → main control Board M sends a command related to winning / re-game winning information to the sub-control board S side → Sub-control board S side receives a command related to winning / re-game winning information → Main control board M is specified to the sub-control board S side → The sub-control board S side receives the predetermined command → The sub-control board S side executes the drawing process with the predetermined command as an opportunity, and the effect display device S40 displays the push order navigation → the reel drive state is displayed. Update to constant speed state (3) Start lever operation → Minimum game time elapses → Main control board M executes rotation cylinder rotation start processing and starts reel rotation → Update reel drive state to acceleration state → Main control board M The push order display device D270 displays the push order navigation with dynamic lighting → The main control board M sends a command related to winning / replay winning information to the sub control board S side → The sub control board S side wins / replay winning information Receive the command related to → Update the reel drive state to the constant speed state → The sub-control board S side executes the drawing process with the command and displays the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 (4) Start lever operation → Minimum Game time elapses → Main control board M executes rotation cylinder rotation start processing and starts reel rotation → Updates reel drive state to acceleration state → Main control board M dynamically lights push order navigation on push order display device D270 Displayed with → Main control board M sends a command related to winning / replay winning information to the sub control board S side → Sub control board S side receives a command related to winning / replay winning information → Main control board M receives a command related to winning / replay winning information Send a predetermined command to the board S side → Sub-control The board S side receives the predetermined command → Update the reel drive state to the constant speed state → Sub-control triggered by the predetermined command The board S side may execute the drawing process and display the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. That is, the time value from when the sub-control board S side receives a predetermined command from the main control board M side to when the drawing process is executed is designed, and the display timing of the push order navigation on the sub-control board S side is determined. Alternatively, the timing at which the main control board M side transmits a predetermined command to the sub control board S side may be designed to determine the display timing of the push order navigation on the sub control board S side.

<Structure 2>
Next, the configuration of FIG. 95 will be described. The state related to AT is the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the start lever is operated and the reel rotation starts in the situation where the minimum game time has elapsed. The process is executed and the reel starts rotating. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

After that, the operation of the stop button becomes effective, a command is transmitted from the main control board M to the sub control board S side, and "213" is displayed as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. After "213" is displayed as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40, "= 3" is dynamically displayed as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270. In FIG. 95, the push order navigation of the effect display device S40 is displayed before the push order navigation of the push order display device D270. For example, in FIG. 95, the push order navigation by the effect display device S40 is at the timing after executing the rotation start processing, and the push order navigation by the push order display device D270 is at the timing immediately before the operation of the reel stop button becomes effective. Will be executed.

<Effect 1>
By configuring as shown in FIG. 94 or 95, the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 is set for a predetermined period (start lever operation → minimum game time elapses → reel). By determining the rotation start → reel acceleration state → reel constant speed state → period until the operation of the stop button becomes effective), for example, the push order navigation is started on both the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40. To provide a user-friendly gaming machine that can reliably prevent the situation where the player cannot recognize the push order navigation regardless of which display device is viewed due to the delay in the timing of the reeling, and does not give the player any disadvantage. Can be done.

<Effect 2>
Further, by configuring as shown in FIG. 94 or 95, the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the effect display device S40 are different. As a result, it is possible to avoid the situation where two display devices must be visually recognized at the same time, and the player can visually recognize the push order navigation on each display device at the timing when the push order navigation occurs. It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that can be reduced.

<Structure 3> In the AT state, when a push order combination (push order bell, push order replay combination, etc.) is determined as a winning combination, not only the effect display device S40 but also the effect display device S40 is used as an effect means for notifying the push order. For example, as shown in FIGS. 97 and 98, the pressing order is performed by a lamp (hereinafter, referred to as a reel window frame lamp D310) provided on the middle panel (intermediate decoration panel), an sound output from the speaker S20, or the like. It is also possible to have a configuration for notifying. In the configuration 3, when the instruction game is executed, the reel window frame lamp D310 can execute the push order navigation. The reel window frame lamp D310 is provided at a position (near the reel) corresponding to each of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53, and is composed of, for example, an LED or the like like the start lamp D180. The lighting of the reel window frame lamp D310, the sound output from the speaker S20, and the like are controlled and managed by the sub-control board S in the same manner as the effect display device S40. That is, when the push order navigation is executed by these effect means, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S steps based on the command received from the CPUC100 of the main control board M, as in the case of the effect display device S40. By executing command processing (here, referred to as reel window frame lamp lighting processing and voice output processing) in 2108 and step 2250, push order navigation can be executed. Since the reel window frame lamp D310 is preferably provided at a position where the player can easily see it, for example, the upper side or the lower side of the reel window D160 (a reel on which the reel can be visually recognized from the player's point of view). It is preferable to provide a space above or below the window D160 so as to correspond to each reel.

Configuration 3 will be described with reference to FIG. 97. The state related to AT is the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the start lever is operated and the reel rotation starts in the situation where the minimum game time has elapsed. The process is executed and the reel starts rotating. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle-> left-> right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

After that, immediately after the rotation cylinder rotation start process is executed, "= 3" is dynamically lit and displayed (display start) as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270. After "= 3" is displayed as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270, the lamp corresponding to the middle reel (middle stop button) lights up (starts lighting) as the push order navigation by the reel window frame lamp D310. .. After that, "213" is displayed (display starts) as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. In FIG. 97, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed is "push order display device-> reel window frame lamp-> effect display device", and the display of the push order navigation is started by lighting the reel window frame lamp D310. The timing is later than that of the push order display device D270 and earlier than that of the effect display device S40.

Here, when the push order navigation is displayed on the effect display device S40 controlled by the sub-control board S side, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S relates to the winning / replay winning information from the CPUC100 of the main control board M. After receiving the command, the command data is saved and the command analysis process is performed in sequence, and then the push order navigation is performed from the sub-main board (board in the sub-control board S) to the production control board (board in the sub-control board S). The process of transmitting a command related to the display mode and the process of transmitting a command related to the lighting mode of the push order navigation from the sub-main board (board in the sub control board S) to the lamp control board (board in the sub control board S). It takes about 16 ms from the reception of the command related to the winning / replay winning information to the transmission of the command related to the display mode of the push order navigation and the transmission of the command related to the lighting mode of the push order navigation. Further, the effect control board receives a command related to the display mode of the push order navigation, executes a drawing process when there is no problem in the content of the command, and the drawing process requires about 32 ms. On the other hand, the lamp control board receives the command related to the lighting mode of the push order navigation, and immediately executes the lighting process if there is no problem in the content of the command (the lighting process can be executed in a shorter time than the drawing process). Therefore, a command related to winning / replay winning information is transmitted from the main control board M to the sub control board S side, and the sub control board S side receives the command as an opportunity to display the effect display device S40 and the reel window frame lamp D310. When the push order navigation is executed by, the push order navigation display (lighting display) by the reel window frame lamp D310 is executed before the push order navigation display by the effect display device S40. The command transmitted from the main control board M is not limited to the command related to the winning / replay winning information, and may be a command related to the effect group number.

In this way, by configuring the reel window frame lamp D310 to display the push order navigation (lighting display) before the push order navigation display by the effect display device S40, a simple notification is given to the player. It can be executed faster, and it is possible to prevent a situation in which the player operates the stop button before confirming the pressing order (a situation in which the pressing order is mistaken).

The order in which the push order navigation is displayed may be "push order display device-> effect display device-> reel window frame lamp". In such a configuration, the sub-main board may transmit a command related to push-order navigation to the effect control board, and then the sub-main board may send a command related to push-order navigation to the lamp board. Then, a command from the main control board M side that triggers the display of the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 and a command from the main control board M side that triggers the display of the push order navigation in the reel window frame lamp D310. May be a different command.

As described above, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display starts) is "push order display device-> reel window frame lamp-> effect display device", but the push order navigation is displayed (display start). The order in which the display is started) is not limited to this. For example, as a modification of the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display start), "reel window frame lamp-> push order display device-> effect display device", "effect display device-> push order display device-> reel window frame lamp", It may be configured as "reel window frame lamp-> effect display device-> push order display device" and "effect display device-> reel window frame lamp-> push order display device". In such a configuration, after the sub-main board transmits a command related to push order navigation to the lamp board and the effect control board, the main control board M dynamically performs push order navigation on the push order display device D270. It may be configured to display (start displaying) when it is lit, or a command from the main control board M side that triggers the display of the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation in the reel window frame lamp D310. May be different from the command from the main control board M side that triggers the display of. In this way, depending on the timing of sending commands from the sub-main board and the timing of the main control board M displaying (starting display) the push order navigation with dynamic lighting.
(1) The push order navigation by the dynamic lighting on the push order display device D270 is executed first (2) The push order navigation by the reel window frame lamp D310 is executed first (3) The push order by the effect display device S40 It is possible to change the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display starts), such as executing the navigation first.

<Effect>
In this way, in the situation where the minimum game time has elapsed, the start timing of the push order navigation on the reel window frame lamp D310 is set for a predetermined period (start lever operation → reel rotation start → reel acceleration state → reel constant speed state). → By stipulating the period until the operation of the stop button becomes effective), for example, even in a gaming machine that is not equipped with a liquid crystal unit such as the effect display device S40, the push order navigation is turned on by the lamp ( In this example, a user-friendly gaming machine that can be executed by using the reel window frame lamp D310, etc., and is unlikely to cause the player to be unable to recognize the push order navigation (advantageous operation mode of the stop button). Can be provided.

<Structure 4> Next, as Configuration 4, a configuration for executing push order navigation notification by voice output from the speaker S20 will be described. Configuration 4 is configured to notify the push order by voice in the instruction game. For example, dialogues such as "left", "middle", and "right" are output as voice from the speaker, and the stop is performed. Execute push order navigation corresponding to the reel to be operated (stop button to be operated).

Configuration 4 will be described with reference to FIG. 98. The state related to AT is the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the start lever is operated and the reel rotation starts in the situation where the minimum game time has elapsed. The process is executed and the reel starts rotating. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle-> left-> right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

After that, immediately after the rotation cylinder rotation start process is executed, "= 3" is dynamically lit and displayed (display start) as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270. After "= 3" is displayed as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270, the push order navigation that outputs the sound by the speaker S20 is "middle" (the middle stop button is operated as the first stop operation). A voice suggesting that) is output. After that, "213" is displayed (display starts) as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. In FIG. 98, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed is "push order display device-> voice-> effect display device", and the timing at which the push order navigation notification by voice output is started is the reel window frame. Similar to the lamp D310, the timing is slower than the push order display device D270 and earlier than the effect display device S40.

Here, when the push order navigation is displayed on the effect display device S40 controlled by the sub-control board S side, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S relates to the winning / replay winning information from the CPUC100 of the main control board M. After receiving the command, the command data is saved and the command analysis process is performed in sequence, and then the push order navigation is performed from the sub-main board (board in the sub-control board S) to the production control board (board in the sub-control board S). The process of transmitting the command related to the display mode and the process of transmitting the command related to the output mode of the push order navigation from the sub-main board (board in the sub control board S) to the voice control board (board in the sub control board S). It takes about 16 ms from the reception of the command related to the winning / replay winning information to the transmission of the command related to the display mode of the push order navigation and the transmission of the command related to the output mode of the push order navigation. Further, the effect control board receives a command related to the display mode of the push order navigation, executes a drawing process when there is no problem in the content of the command, and the drawing process requires about 32 ms. On the other hand, the voice control board receives the command related to the output mode of the push order navigation, and immediately executes the voice output process if there is no problem in the content of the command (the voice output process is executed in a shorter time than the drawing process). Therefore, a command related to winning / replay winning information is transmitted from the main control board M to the sub control board S side, and the sub control board S side receives the command as an opportunity for the effect display device S40 and the speaker S20. When the push order navigation is executed, the output (audio output) of the push order navigation by the speaker S20 is executed before the display of the push order navigation by the effect display device S40. The command transmitted from the main control board M is not limited to the command related to the winning / replay winning information, and may be a command related to the effect group number.

In this way, by configuring the push order navigation output (voice output) by the speaker S20 to be executed before the push order navigation display by the effect display device S40, a simple notification can be executed to the player faster. At the same time, the player can recognize the pressing order by voice even if he / she is not looking at the effect display device S40, and operates the stop button before confirming the pressing order (wrong pressing order). It is possible to prevent the situation).

As described above, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display start) is "push order display device-> voice-> effect display device", but the push order navigation is displayed (display start). The order in which they are performed is not limited to this. For example, as a modification of the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display start), it may be configured as "push order display device-> effect display device-> voice". In such a configuration, the sub-main board may transmit a command related to push-order navigation to the effect control board, and then the sub-main board may send a command related to push-order navigation to the voice control board. It is good, and the command from the main control board M side that triggers the display of the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation in the voice from the speaker S20 are displayed from the main control board M side. The command may be different from the command.

Furthermore, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display start) is "voice-> push order display device-> effect display device", "voice-> effect display device-> push order display device", "effect display device->voice->press". It is also possible to configure "sequential display device", "effect display device-> push order display device->voice", and the like. In such a configuration, after the sub-main board transmits a command related to push order navigation to the voice control board and the effect control board, the main control board M performs push order navigation on the push order display device D270. It may be configured to display (start display) by dynamic lighting, or the command from the main control board M side and the push order in the voice from the speaker S20, which triggers the display of the push order navigation in the effect display device S40. The command from the main control board M side, which triggers the navigation to be displayed, may be a different command. In this way, depending on the timing of sending commands from the sub-main board and the timing of the main control board M displaying (starting display) the push order navigation with dynamic lighting.
(1) The push order navigation by dynamic lighting on the push order display device D270 is executed first (2) The push order navigation by voice from the speaker S20 is executed first (3) The push order by the effect display device S40 It is possible to change the order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display starts), such as executing the navigation first.

<Effect>
In this way, in the situation where the minimum game time has passed, the start timing of the push order navigation by voice is set for a predetermined period (start lever operation → reel rotation start → reel acceleration state → reel constant speed state → stop button. By determining the period until the operation becomes effective), for example, even in a gaming machine that is not equipped with a liquid crystal unit such as the effect display device S40, the push order navigation is voiced (in this example, from the speaker S20). It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that can be executed by using (output voice) or the like, and it is unlikely that the player cannot recognize the push order navigation.

<< Execution mode of push order navigation when there is weight >>
First, if there is a weight, in other words, the start lever is operated in a situation where the minimum game time has not elapsed (the timer value of the game interval minimum time timer M70 is greater than 0), and then the game is executed. The execution mode of the push order navigation in the case of being performed will be described below.

<Structure 1>
First, configuration 1 of FIG. 99 will be described. The start lever is operated when the state related to AT is the AT in-progress state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won) and the minimum game time has not elapsed. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

First, the start lever D50 is operated in a situation where the minimum game time has not elapsed, and the main control board M detects the operation of the start lever D50 by timer interrupt processing, so that the push order display device D270 is "=". Execute the process of displaying (starting display) the push order navigation of "3" with dynamic lighting. After that, during the period before the minimum game time elapses, "213" is displayed (display starts) as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. In FIG. 99, the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 is displayed before the push order navigation of the effect display device S40.

<Structure 2>
Next, the configuration 2 of FIG. 100 will be described. The start lever is operated when the state related to AT is the AT in-progress state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won) and the minimum game time has not elapsed. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

When the start lever D50 is operated, the main control board M transmits a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side by timer interrupt processing. After receiving the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the sub control board S executes a process of displaying (starting display) "213" as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 (drawing described above). Execute the process). After that, the minimum game time elapses, the reel starts rotating by executing the rotation cylinder rotation start process, and the main control board M is in a constant speed state and the operation of the stop button becomes effective. Before (immediately before the operation of the stop button becomes effective), the push order display device D270 executes a process of displaying (starting display) dynamic lighting of "= 3" as a push order navigation. In FIG. 100, the push order navigation of the effect display device S40 is displayed before the push order navigation of the push order display device D270. Here, the sub-control board S executes a process of displaying (starting display) "213" as a push order navigation on the effect display device S40 based on the reception of the command related to the effect group number. , The command that triggers the execution of the process of displaying (starting the display) the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 is not limited to this, and at the timing of displaying (starting the display) the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. The command to be transmitted from the main control board M, which serves as an opportunity, may be determined accordingly.

<Structure 3>
Next, the configuration 2 of FIG. 101 will be described. The start lever is operated when the state related to AT is the AT in-progress state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won) and the minimum game time has not elapsed. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

The start lever D50 is operated in a situation where the minimum game time has not elapsed, and the main control board M transmits a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side by timer interrupt processing. After receiving the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the sub control board S executes a process of displaying (starting display) "213" as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 (drawing described above). Execute the process). After that, the main control board M dynamically sets "= 3" as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 at the timing when the minimum game time elapses, the rotation cylinder rotation start process is executed, and the reel starts to rotate. Executes the process of displaying (starting display) when it is lit. In FIG. 101, when the start lever is operated in a situation where it takes a predetermined time (for example, 10 ms, which is a time value for five timer interrupt processes) or more until the minimum game time elapses, the effect display device The push order navigation of S40 is displayed before the push order navigation of the push order display device D270. In addition, when the start lever is operated in a situation where less than a predetermined time (for example, 10 ms, which is the time value for five timer interrupt processes) remains before the minimum game time elapses, or the minimum game time When the start lever is operated in the situation where The opportunity to display the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 controlled by the sub control board S side (for example, the main control board M) rather than the time from the occurrence of Since the time from the occurrence of the winning / re-game winning information command reception from the side) to the completion of the push order navigation display is configured to be longer, the push order display device D270 The push order navigation of is displayed before the push order navigation of the effect display device S40.

As described above, an example of the timing at which the push order navigation is displayed (display start) on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 has been described, but the push order navigation is displayed (display start). The timing is not limited to this. For example, as a modification of the timing at which the push order navigation is displayed (display start) in FIG. 99, the effect display device S40 is used before the push order display device D270 during the period before the minimum game time elapses. During the period before the minimum game time elapses, the push order navigation is displayed (display starts), and the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 simultaneously display (display start) the push order navigation. Alternatively, the push order navigation is displayed (display starts) on the push order display device D270 during the period before the minimum game time elapses, and the push order navigation is displayed (displayed) on the effect display device S40 after the minimum game time elapses. The push order navigation is displayed (display starts) on the effect display device S40 during the period before the minimum game time elapses, and the push order navigation is displayed on the push order display device D270 after the minimum game time elapses. May be configured to divide the display (display start) timing of the push order navigation before and after the elapse of the minimum game time, such as displaying (display start).

<Effect>
In this way, the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 is set for a predetermined period (start lever operation → period when the minimum game time has not elapsed → reel rotation start → reel acceleration. State → Reel constant speed state → Period until the operation of the stop button becomes effective). With this configuration, it is possible to make the timing of displaying (displaying start) the push order navigation different between the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40. As an effect of differentiating the timing of displaying (starting display) the push order navigation between the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40.
(1) When the push order navigation in the push order display device D270 is displayed before the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 The start lever is operated, and the main control board M wins the winning combination (here, the push order). The push order navigation can be displayed (display start) on the push order display device D270 by timer interrupt processing (for example, about 2 ms) immediately after the effect group number is determined based on the determination of the bell role. , It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that promptly notifies the player of information related to push order navigation.
(2) When the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 is displayed before the push order navigation in the push order display device D270 In the case of a gaming machine equipped with a liquid crystal unit such as the effect display device S40 Since the information related to the current game state or the winning combination is often configured to be suggested on the effect display device S40, the player advances the game while visually recognizing the effect display device S40. Will go. The size (display area) is larger than that of the push order display device D270, and the effect display device S40, which is easy for the player to see, is configured to promptly notify the player of information related to the push order navigation. Even if the push order navigation is newly executed while the device S40 is visually recognized, the push order navigation can be confirmed while visually recognizing the effect display device S40, so that another push order navigation is displayed each time the push order navigation is displayed. It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that can reduce the gaming burden on the player without paying attention to the display device.
In addition, it is possible to reliably prevent a situation in which the push order navigation is not recognized by the player regardless of which display device the player sees because the timing of starting the push order navigation is delayed on both the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40. , It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that does not give a disadvantage to the player.

Further, by making the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 different from the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the effect display device S40, the two display devices must be visually recognized at the same time. It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that can avoid the situation where the player does not have to play and can reduce the player's game burden by being able to visually recognize the push order navigation on individual display devices at the timing when the push order navigation occurs. ..

<Structure 4>
Next, the configuration 4 of FIG. 102 will be described. In the configuration 4, the reel window frame lamp D310 is provided. The start lever is operated when the state related to AT is the AT in-progress state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won) and the minimum game time has not elapsed. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

The start lever D50 is operated in a situation where the minimum game time has not elapsed, and the main control board M transmits a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side by timer interrupt processing. After receiving the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the sub control board S lights (starts lighting) the lamp corresponding to the middle reel (middle stop button) as a push order navigation by the reel window frame lamp D310. Execute the process to be performed. After that, the effect display device S40 executes a process of displaying (starting display) "213" as a push order navigation. The timing at which the display of the push order navigation by lighting the reel window frame lamp D310 is started is the timing before the effect display device S40. This is because, as described above, when the sub control board S receives the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the reel window frame lamp lighting process in the reel window frame lamp D310 is a push order navigation. This is because it can be executed faster than the process of drawing on the effect display device S40. After that, the minimum game time elapses, the rotation start process is executed, the reel starts rotating, and then, before the operation of the stop button becomes effective, the push order display device D270 displays the push order navigation as " = 3 ”is displayed (display starts) with dynamic lighting. In FIG. 102, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed is "reel window frame lamp-> effect display device-> push order display device", and the display of the push order navigation is started by lighting the reel window frame lamp D310. The timing to be performed is earlier than the push order display device D270 and earlier than the effect display device S40.

Even in the case of the configuration as illustrated in FIG. 102, the start lever is operated immediately before the end of the period before the minimum game time elapses (for example, about 10 ms remaining until the minimum game time elapses) (for example, the start lever is operated (for example, about 10 ms remaining until the minimum game time elapses). When the main control board M sends a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side), the order in which the push order navigation is displayed is "push order display device-> reel window frame lamp-> effect display device" or. There is a case where "reel window frame lamp-> push order display device-> effect display device". Here, in the case of displaying the push order navigation on the effect display device S40, as described above, after the sub control board S receives the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the effect display device S40 is displayed. It takes about 32 ms to display (start displaying) "213" as the push order navigation (until the drawing process is executed), so it is just before the end of the period before the minimum game time elapses ( For example, when the start lever is operated (the main control board M sends a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side) when the minimum game time elapses (about 10 ms remaining), the push order display device. The push order navigation by the effect display device S40 may be displayed (display started) after the push order navigation is displayed by the D270 or the reel window frame lamp D310.

Further, also in the reel window frame lamp D310, the start lever was operated immediately before the end of the period before the minimum game time elapses (for example, about 10 ms remaining until the minimum game time elapses) (main control board M When the command related to the effect group number is transmitted to the sub control board S side), it takes time for the sub control board S side to receive the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M side. The push order navigation by the reel window frame lamp may be displayed (display starts) after the push order navigation is displayed by the order display device D270.
As described above, the timing at which the push order navigation by the push order display device D270 and the reel window frame lamp D310 is started is as follows: start lever operation → minimum game time elapses → reel rotation start → reel acceleration state → reel constant speed state → As long as the operation of the stop button is valid, the timing for displaying the push order navigation can be set as appropriate.

<Effect>
In this way, by configuring the reel window frame lamp D310 to display the push order navigation (lighting display) before the push order navigation display by the effect display device S40, a simple notification is given to the player. It can be executed faster, and it is possible to prevent a situation in which the player operates the stop button before confirming the pressing order (a situation in which the pressing order is mistaken).

Further, even in a gaming machine that is not equipped with a liquid crystal unit such as the effect display device S40, the push order navigation can be executed by lighting the lamp (in this example, lighting the reel window frame lamp D310). It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that is unlikely to cause the player to be unable to recognize the push order navigation.

<Structure 5>
Next, the configuration 5 of FIG. 103 will be described. In the configuration 5, the push order navigation is executed by the voice output from the speaker S20 in the instruction game. The start lever is operated when the state related to AT is the AT in-progress state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won) and the minimum game time has not elapsed. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

By operating the start lever D50, the main control board M transmits a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side by timer interrupt processing during the period when the minimum game time has not elapsed. The sub-control board S receives a command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, and then outputs the sound from the speaker S20 as "middle!" (The first stop operation is the middle stop button. The process of outputting the voice with the voice suggesting the operation) is executed. After that, the effect display device S40 executes a process of displaying (starting display) "213" as a push order navigation. The timing at which the display of the push order navigation by the voice from the speaker S20 is started is the timing before the effect display device S40. This is a process in which when the sub control board S receives a command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the audio output process from the speaker S20 draws the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. This is because it runs faster than. After that, after the minimum game time elapses, the reel starts to rotate, and the operation of the stop button becomes effective. Previously, the push order display device D270 executes a process of displaying (starting display) dynamic lighting of "= 3" as a push order navigation. In FIG. 103, the order in which the push order navigation is displayed is "voice-> effect display device-> push order display device", and the timing at which the push order navigation notification by voice output is started is the push order display. The timing is ahead of the device D270 and ahead of the effect display device S40.

Even in the case of the configuration as illustrated in FIG. 103, the start lever was operated immediately before the end of the period before the minimum game time elapses (for example, about 10 ms remaining until the minimum game time elapses) (for example, the remaining game time is about 10 ms). When the main control board M sends a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side), the order in which the push order navigation is displayed is "push order display device-> voice-> effect display device" or "voice->". In some cases, the push order display device → the effect display device. Here, in the case of displaying the push order navigation on the effect display device S40, as described above, after the sub control board S receives the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the effect display device S40 is displayed. It takes about 32 ms to display (start displaying) "213" as the push order navigation (until the drawing process is executed), so it is just before the end of the period before the minimum game time elapses ( For example, when the start lever is operated (the main control board M sends a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side) when the minimum game time elapses (about 10 ms remaining), the push order display device. The push order navigation by the effect display device S40 may be displayed (display started) after the push order navigation is displayed by D270 or the push order navigation is notified by voice.

Further, also in the speaker S20, the start lever was operated immediately before the end of the period before the minimum game time elapses (for example, about 10 ms remaining until the minimum game time elapses) (the main control board M is the sub control board). When the command related to the effect group number is transmitted to the S side), it takes time for the sub control board S side to receive the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M side. The push order navigation by voice from the speaker S20 may be notified after the display of the push order navigation by D270.

As described above, the timing at which the push order navigation display is started on the push order display device D270 is as follows: start lever operation → period during which the minimum game time has not elapsed → reel rotation start → reel acceleration state → reel constant speed state → As long as the operation of the stop button is valid, the timing for displaying the push order navigation can be determined as appropriate.

<Effect>
In this way, when the start lever is operated in a situation where the minimum game time has not elapsed, the start timing of the push order navigation by voice is set for a predetermined period (start lever operation → minimum game time has elapsed → reel rotation start → By determining the reel acceleration state → reel constant speed state → period until the operation of the stop button becomes effective), for example, even in a gaming machine that is not equipped with a liquid crystal unit such as the effect display device S40. The push order navigation can be executed in a simple notification mode of voice (voice output from the speaker S20 in this example), and in a situation where the reel or the stop button is focused and the effect display device S40 is not viewed. Even when the push order navigation is executed, the player can recognize the push order navigation by voice while paying attention to the reel or the stop button, so that the player cannot recognize the push order navigation. It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that is unlikely to happen.

An example of the timing of displaying the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 and the timing of displaying the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 has been described for the case where there is a weight and the case where there is no weight. The timing for displaying the push order navigation on each display device is not limited to these. If it is the period from the start of the operation of the start lever D50 described above to the start lever operation → the minimum game time elapses → the reel rotation start → the reel acceleration state → the reel constant speed state → the operation of the stop button is valid, the pressing order is appropriate. You can set the timing to display the navigation. Further, it is preferable to set the display timing of the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 to be narrower than the above-mentioned period. This is because it takes a predetermined time (for example, 32 ms or more) from the CPUSC of the sub-control board S receiving a predetermined command from the CPUC100 of the main control board M to displaying the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. Is. Further, the larger the number of drawing frames displayed on the effect display device S40, the more time is required. The winning combination is determined after the start lever D50 is operated, but considering the time required from the determination of the winning combination to the display of the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 as described above, As an example, the timing at which the push order navigation display is started on the effect display device S40 is the period during which the minimum game time has not elapsed (when there is a weight) → the reel rotation starts (when there is no weight) → the reel acceleration. State → Reel constant speed state → It is preferable to set the period until the operation of the stop button becomes effective. By defining in this way, the period until the display of the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 is started and the period until the display of the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 is started are different. Can be done. During these periods, it is possible to appropriately determine the timing at which the display of the push order navigation is started on each display device.

For example, in the period until the start lever operation → the minimum game time elapses → the reel rotation start → the reel acceleration state → the reel constant speed state → the operation of the stop button becomes effective, the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40, the voice, and the reel To describe an example of the order in which the push order navigation on the window frame lamp D310 is notified,
(1) Push order display device → effect display device → voice → reel window frame lamp (2) push order display device → effect display device → reel window frame lamp → voice (3) push order display device → voice → effect display device → Reel window frame lamp (4) Push order display device → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Effect display device (5) Push order display device → Reel window frame lamp → Effect display device → Voice (6) Push order display device → Reel window Frame lamp → voice → effect display device (7) effect display device → push order display device → voice → reel window frame lamp (8) effect display device → push order display device → reel window frame lamp → sound (9) effect display device → Voice → Push order display device → Reel window frame lamp (10) Production display device → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Push order display device (11) Production display device → Reel window frame lamp → Push order display device → Voice (12 ) Effect display device → reel window frame lamp → voice → push order display device (13) voice → push order display device → effect display device → reel window frame lamp (14) voice → push order display device → reel window frame lamp → effect Display device (15) Voice → Production display device → Push order display device → Reel window frame lamp (16) Voice → Production display device → Reel window frame lamp → Push order display device (17) Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Push order Display device → effect display device (18) voice → reel window frame lamp → effect display device → push order display device (19) reel window frame lamp → push order display device → effect display device → voice (20) reel window frame lamp → Push order display device → voice → effect display device (21) reel window frame lamp → effect display device → push order display device → voice (22) reel window frame lamp → effect display device → voice → push order display device (23) reel Window frame lamp → voice → push order display device → effect display device (24) Reel window frame lamp → voice → effect display device → start lever operation → minimum game time elapses → reel rotation start → In the period from the reel acceleration state to the reel constant speed state to the operation of the stop button, it is possible to appropriately determine the timing at which the push order navigation is displayed (display start).

Further, as one of the effect means controlled by the sub-control board S, it is controlled by the sub-control board S provided inside the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43). It is also possible to add a push-order navigation that lights up (blinks) so as to suggest an operation mode of the stop button that is advantageous to the player by the stop button lamp S60. When the start lever D50 is operated, the main control board M transmits a command related to the effect group number to the sub control board S side by timer interrupt processing. After receiving the command related to the effect group number from the main control board M, the sub-control board S lights (or blinks) the stop button lamp S60 provided inside the first stop button on which the first stop operation should be performed. Execute the process to make it. To describe an example of the order in which the push-order navigation is displayed (display starts) in a configuration in which the push-order navigation by the stop button D40 is added.
(25) Push order display device → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Stop button lamp (only the first stop button lights (blinks)) → Effect display device (26) Push order display device → Voice → Stop button lamp (1st stop) Button only lit (blinking)) → reel window frame lamp → effect display device (27) Press order display device → voice → stop button lamp (only the first stop button lit (blinking)) and reel window frame lamp are almost simultaneous → effect It can be configured like a display device, but the order here is an example, and is not limited to this. For example, in (27) above, the reel window frame lamp D310 and the stop button lamp S60 are turned on (blinking) at the same time, but it is also possible to configure the speaker S20 to output sound at the same time. Execution timing of timer interrupt processing (push order display device D270) related to display (display start) of push order navigation on the main control board M side (push order display device D270), or sub control board S (effect display device S40, reel) The order in which the push order navigation is displayed (display start) may be determined depending on the transmission timing of the command related to the notification of the push order navigation of the window frame lamp D310, the sound from the speaker S20, and the stop button D40). When performing push-button navigation by the stop button lamp S60, instead of lighting (blinking) the stop button lamps corresponding to all reels, only the stop button lamps corresponding to the reels on which the stop operation should be performed are displayed. It is preferable to control the lighting (blinking). When executing the push-order navigation of, for example, "213": "middle->left->right" by the stop button lamp S60, the stop button lamp (lit) corresponding to the middle stop button D42 → the middle stop button D42 is operated → the middle stop. Stop button lamp corresponding to button D42 (off) → Stop button lamp corresponding to left stop button D41 (lit) → Operate left stop button D41 → Stop button lamp corresponding to left stop button D41 (off) → Right stop button Stop button lamp corresponding to D43 (lit) → Operate right stop button D43 → Stop button lamp corresponding to reel lights based on the progress of the game like stop button lamp corresponding to right stop button D43 (off) (Blinking), configured to turn off.

Further, the case where the control of the stop button lamp S60 provided inside the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) is executed by the sub-control board S has been described above. The control of the stop button lamp S60 provided inside the button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) may be executed by the main control board M. Hereinafter, the start timing of the push-button navigation under the control of the stop button lamp S60 provided inside the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) on the main control board M will be described.

When controlling the stop button lamp S60 on the main control board M, the start lever is operated, and a timer interrupt is performed after the effect group number is determined based on the determination of the winning combination (here, the pressing order bell combination). The process of turning on (or blinking) the stop button lamp S60 is executed by the process (for example, in the first cycle from the determination of the effect group number, the time required for the stop button lamp S60 to turn on is about 2 ms). It becomes possible to do. To describe an example of the order in which the push-order navigation is displayed (display starts) in the configuration in which the push-order navigation by the stop button lamp S60 is added by the configuration in this way.
(28) Press order display device → Stop button lamp (only the first stop button lights (blinks)) → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Effect display device (29) Stop button lamp (only the first stop button lights (blinks)) → Push order display device → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Production display device (30) Stop button lamp (only the first stop button lights (blinks)) and push order display device are almost simultaneous → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Production It can be configured like a display device, but the order here is an example, and is not limited to this. For example, in the above (28) to (30), the push order navigation by the stop button lamp S60 which is controlled by the main control board M side is the sound from the effect display device S40 and the speaker S20 which are controlled by the sub control board S side. , It is started before the push order navigation by the reel window frame lamp D310, but on the main control board M side, the timing to execute the timer interrupt process for lighting (blinking) the stop button lamp S60 is changed. After starting the push order navigation on the sub-control board S side (for example, the effect display device S40, the sound from the speaker, the reel window frame lamp D310), the push order navigation by the stop button lamp S60 may be started. Execution timing of timer interrupt processing related to display (display start) of push-order navigation on the main control board M side (push-order display device D270, stop button lamp S60), or sub-control board S (effect display device S40, reel window frame) The order in which the push-order navigation is displayed (display starts) may be determined depending on the transmission timing of the command related to the notification of the push-order navigation of the lamp D310 and the speaker S20.

<< Configuration related to the end of display of push order navigation >>
Next, the end timing of the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 will be described. The timing at which the push order navigation ends can be freely designed to some extent according to the period during which the player ends the game, similar to the timing at which the push order navigation starts. An example of the period during which the player ends the game is the timing at which the player operates the third stop button. When the third stop button is operated and all reels are completely stopped and a prize is won, the game ends when the payout of the game medal based on the prize is completed.

The period for ending the display of the push order navigation is the period of "3rd stop button operation (pressing)-> 3rd stop button non-pressing-> winning judgment-> payout based on winning" starting from the operation timing of the 3rd stop button. It is possible to specify either timing. In this example, the end timing of the push order navigation is configured so that the end timing of the push order navigation is different for each push order combination (push order bell, push order replay combination). For example, the timing at which the display of the push order navigation by the push order display device D270 ends differs depending on whether the determined winning combination is the push order bell or the push order replay combination.

In the configurations 1 to 5 described below, in order to explain the end timing of the push order navigation, the first stop button and the second stop button are already pressed and the effect display device. It should be added that the push order navigation corresponding to the first stop button and the second stop button of S40 has also been completed.

<Structure 1>
First, configuration 1 of FIG. 104 will be described. The instruction game is executed when the state related to AT is in the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the first stop button and the second stop button are operated. In a situation where the push order navigation related to the 3 stop is displayed on the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation related to the game is displayed on the push order display device D270, the right stop button is operated as the third stop. (Pressed). By pressing the stop button, the display of the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 ends, and the push order navigation disappearance effect related to the right reel (right stop button) is displayed on the effect display device S40 (display start). Will be done. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

Here, the push order navigation disappearance effect is displayed for a predetermined time as an effect display related to the end when the display of the push order navigation displayed on the effect display device ends. In the figure, in the situation where "3" is displayed as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40, the right stop button is operated, and the sensor that detects the operation of the right stop button is turned from off to on. Is detected by the interrupt process on the main control board M side, so that the command related to the detection is transmitted from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side, and the sub control board S side receives the command related to the detection. Then, by executing the process of erasing the display of "3", the push-order navigation disappearance effect that is erased after the display of "3" becomes transparent is displayed.

After that, in the situation where the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 is finished, the display of the push order navigation disappearance effect is finished (the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 is finished). Here, as the end trigger of the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 and the push order navigation of the effect display device S40, both "press the third stop button" (the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned off). It is detected by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side), but in FIG. 104, the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 precedes the push order navigation of the effect display device S40. The display is completely erased. This is the same as when the push order navigation starts, and even if the end timing of the push order navigation is set to "when the third stop button is pressed", the CPUSC of the sub-control board S draws a plurality of frames. It can be said that this is because the end of the push order navigation of the effect display device S40 is delayed by the amount of processing for displaying.

To elaborate on the end of the push order navigation, in the push order display device D270, the push order display device D270 is turned on → off start → off is completed, so that the push order navigation ends, and in the effect display device S40, the push order is pushed. The push order navigation ends when the display of the forward navigation → the display of the push order navigation disappearance effect starts → the display of the push order navigation disappearance effect ends (erasing is completed). In this example, the timing at which the push-order display device D270 starts to turn off is referred to as the push-order display device turns off, and the display start of the push-order navigation disappearance effect is referred to as the display (display start) of the push-order navigation disappearance effect. The push order display device extinguishing may be replaced with the timing at which the push order display device D270 completes turning off, or the display of the push order navigation extinction effect may be replaced with the timing at which the display of the push order navigation extinction effect ends. The timing of turning off the push order display device and displaying the push order navigation disappearance effect (display start) may be set to the push order display device turn off → display of the push order navigation disappearance effect (display start), or display of the push order disappearance effect. (Display start) → The push order display device may be turned off, or the push order display device may be turned off and the push order navigation disappearance effect may be displayed (display start) at the same time.

Further, the configuration in which the push-button navigation display ends when the third stop button is operated has been described above, but the timing when the third stop button is pressed (the operation of the third stop button is detected) is the same as when the third stop button is operated. It is the timing when it is detected by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side that the sensor for this is turned on from off. In the following, it may also be referred to as "when the third stop button is pressed") and the third stop. After the button is pressed, the third stop button is released (after detecting that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has been turned from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side). , It is the timing when it is detected that it has changed from on to off, and in the following, it may also be referred to as "when the third stop button is not pressed"), and the push order navigation ends for each of these states. It can also be configured to specify the timing. For example, in the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40, the order of the timing at which the push order navigation ends is described in more detail.
(When the push order navigation ends not at the same time)
(1) It is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → the push order display device is turned off → the sub control from the main control board M side. Send a command related to the detection of the third stop button to the board S side → The sub-control board S side receives the command → Display the push-order navigation disappearance effect (display start)
(2) Detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has changed from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → the push order display device turns off → the interrupt processing on the main control board M side Detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the 3rd stop button has been turned on from off → Sends a command related to the detection of the 3rd stop button from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side → sub The control board S side receives the command → Display of push order navigation disappearance effect (display start)
(3) It is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from on to off by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → the push order display device is turned off → the sub control from the main control board M side. Send a command related to the detection of the third stop button to the board S side → The sub-control board S side receives the command → Display the push-order navigation disappearance effect (display start)
(4) It is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → the third from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side. Send a command related to the detection of the stop button → The sub control board S side receives the command → Display of the push order disappearance effect (display start) → Turn off the push order display device (5) By interrupt processing on the main control board M side 3 Detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the stop button has turned from off to on → Sends a command related to the detection of the third stop button from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side → sub control board S The side receives the command → Display of the push order disappearance effect (display start) → Detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the 3rd stop button has been turned from on to off by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → Push order display device goes off (6) It is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the 3rd stop button has been turned from on to off by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → Sub control board from the main control board M side Send a command related to the detection of the 3rd stop button to the S side → The sub-control board S side receives the command → Display the push order disappearance effect (display start) → Turn off the push order display device (end of push order navigation at the same time) case)
(7) It is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → the third from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side. Send a command related to the detection of the stop button → The sub control board S side receives the command → The push order disappearance effect is displayed (display starts) and the push order display device is turned off (8) By interrupt processing on the main control board M side Detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the 3rd stop button has turned from on to off → Sends a command related to the detection of the 3rd stop button from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side → sub control board It is possible for the S side to specify that the push order display device is turned off at the same time as the reception of the command → the display (display start) of the push order disappearance effect.

Further, the display mode of the push order navigation when the first stop button is pressed and when the second stop button is pressed, not when the third stop button is pressed, will be described as a supplement. First, in the push order display device D270, the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from off to on (or from on to off) by the interrupt process on the main control board M side after the lighting is started. The lighted state continues until it is detected and the light is turned off. On the other hand, in the effect display device S40, for example, the first stop button is pressed (the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from off to on (or from on to off) by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side). (Detection) The command related to the detection of the first stop button is sent from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side → the sub control board S side receives the command → the push order corresponding to the first stop button disappears. Start changing the display mode of the push order navigation (for example, "2" display) corresponding to the reel for which the effect display (display start) and the next stop operation should be performed (hereinafter, "the display mode of the second reel push order navigation"). It is also configured to "start change"). The order in which these are executed is
(9) Display of push order disappearance effect corresponding to the first stop button (display start) → Start changing the display mode of the second reel push order navigation (10) Start changing the display mode of the second reel push order navigation → No. 1 Display of the push order disappearance effect corresponding to the stop button (display start)
It may be configured as either of. Similarly, when the second stop button is operated, the same applies.
(11) Display of push order disappearance effect (display mode has been changed) corresponding to the 2nd stop button (display start) → Start of change of display mode of 3rd reel push order navigation (12) 3rd reel push order Start changing the display mode of the navigation → Display the push order disappearance effect (display mode has been changed) corresponding to the second stop button (display start)
It can be configured as follows.

<Structure 2>
Next, the configuration 2 of FIG. 105 will be described. The instruction game is executed when the state related to AT is in the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the first stop button and the second stop button are operated. In a situation where the push order navigation related to the 3 stop is displayed on the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation related to the game is displayed on the push order display device D270, the right stop button is operated as the third stop. (Pressed). By pressing the stop button, the push order navigation disappearance effect related to the right reel (right stop button) is displayed (display start) on the effect display device S40. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

After that, while pressing the right stop button, the display of the push order navigation disappearance effect ends (the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 ends). After that, when the right stop button is released, the display of the push order navigation on the push order display device D270 ends.

<Structure 3>
Next, configuration 3 of FIG. 106 will be described. In FIG. 106, the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 is set to “3” instead of “= 3”. That is, the numerical value is displayed as the push order navigation in the right digit of the push order display device D270, and the left digit is hidden. Further, the push order display device D270 is configured to be able to display the push order navigation display and the acquired number of sheets display.

The instruction game is executed when the state related to AT is in the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the first stop button and the second stop button are operated. In a situation where the push order navigation related to the 3 stop is displayed on the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation related to the game is displayed on the push order display device D270, the right stop button is operated as the third stop. (Pressed). By pressing the stop button, it is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has changed from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → sub-control from the main control board M side. Send a command related to the detection of the third stop button to the board S side → The sub-control board S side receives the command → Display the push order disappearance effect related to the right reel (right stop button) on the effect display device S40 (display start) Will be done. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle-> left-> right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

After that, while pressing the right stop button, the symbol combination related to the push order bell (the symbol combination for paying out 11 sheets) is stopped and displayed, and "0" is displayed on the push order display device D270. After that, when the right stop button is released, the payout related to the symbol combination displayed as stopped is started, and the push order display device D270 is displayed with "1" → "2" → "3" → ... "10" → "11". The number of acquired cards is displayed. After "11" is displayed on the push order display device D270 (after displaying the acquired number of sheets), the display of the push order display device D270 is terminated (hidden). In this way, the push order display device D270 is configured to be able to display both the push order navigation and the acquired number of sheets display, and the display mode of the push order navigation display is a numerical value only in the lower digit of the push order display device D270. In the mode of displaying, when the symbol combination for which the game medal is paid out is stopped and displayed in the instruction game, the push order display device D270 displays both the push order navigation and the acquired number of sheets display. There is a risk that a person may misidentify the push order navigation or the number of acquired medals. Therefore, by ending the display of the push order navigation and configuring to display "0" while starting the display of the acquired number of sheets, regardless of the number of payouts related to the symbol combination that is stopped and displayed (for example, 1). Whether the number is 11 or 11), the player can recognize that the display of the acquired number is started. The numerical value of "0" may be changed, and it is preferable that the display mode is different from the display mode that can be displayed as the push order navigation.

In addition, the end timing of the display of the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 is changed from "the third stop button is not pressed (after separation)", that is, "3" is displayed (the function of the push order display device) to "0". Although it is assumed that the switch is made to (function of the payout number display device), for example, it may be the timing of "payout completion based on winning" when the display of the push order display device D270 disappears completely. By setting the end timing of the push order navigation of the effect display device S40 to "when the third stop button is pressed", the push order navigation of the effect display device S40 precedes the push order navigation of the push order display device D270. You can see that it will end.

As another example, the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 is configured as "13", "23", "33" instead of "= 3". The displayed push order navigation will be explained in detail. The left digits "1", "2", and "3" are associated with the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53, respectively, and indicate the positions of the reels on which the stop operation should be performed. (For example, "1" indicates that the reel to be stopped is the left reel M51, and "2" indicates that the reel to be stopped is the middle reel M52). The digit "3" on the right side corresponds to the pressing order "middle-> left-> right" (corresponding instruction number is "A3") displayed on the effect display device S40 as in the conventional configuration. It is a thing. With this configuration, the push order navigation is displayed in the order of "23"-> "13"-> "33", and the stop button is operated according to the push order. At the timing, the push order navigation corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation is performed disappears, and the push order navigation corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation on the next reel should be performed is displayed. Then, when the final stop operation is performed, the display of the push order navigation (“33” in this example) corresponding to the final stop operation disappears, so that the push order navigation by the push order display device D270 ends.

<Effect>
In this way, the end timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 is set for a predetermined period (third stop button operation (press) → third stop button not pressed → winning judgment → winning. The end timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the end timing of the push order navigation displayed on the effect display device S40 are different from each other. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the situation where two display devices must be visually recognized at the same time, and the player can visually recognize the end of the push order navigation on each display device at the timing when the push order navigation occurs. It is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine that can reduce the number of problems.

Further, when the end of the push order navigation display (push order navigation display on the effect display device S40) on the push order display device D270 is triggered by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side, the sensor for detecting the operation of the stop button is turned on. If it is specified to be turned off (release the stop button), it will stop even if the player holds down the final stop button (third stop button) with a sense of expectation for the result of the game. It can be configured so that the push order navigation does not end until the button is turned from on to off. Here, if the push order navigation is deleted immediately after the stop button is turned from off to on, the expectation that the result of the game may not be advantageous to the player is reduced. Since there is a possibility that the event will come off, the result of the game is not a favorable result for the player by configuring so that the push order navigation does not end until the stop button is turned from on to off. It is possible to reduce the occurrence of events that reduce the expectation of the heel.

<Structure 4>
Next, the configuration 4 of FIG. 107 will be described. The instruction game is executed when the state related to AT is in the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the first stop button and the second stop button are operated. In a situation where the push order navigation related to the 3 stop is displayed on the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation related to the game is displayed on the push order display device D270, the right stop button is operated as the third stop. (Pressed). By pressing the stop button, it is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has changed from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → sub-control from the main control board M side. Send a command related to the detection of the third stop button to the board S side → The sub-control board S side receives the command → Display the push order disappearance effect related to the right reel (right stop button) on the effect display device S40 (display start) At the same time, the push order navigation in the push order display device D270 ends. In the game, the player has won the predetermined push order re-game, and the player is most advantageous by stopping the game in the order of "middle->left->right" (RT state with high re-game winning probability). (For example, when the middle first stop is the most profitable three-choice push-order re-game, "re-game-D2" is won).

After that, while pressing the right stop button, the display of the push order navigation disappearance effect ends (the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 ends). After that, when the right stop button is released (it is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button is turned from on to off by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side), the symbol combination related to the replay is performed. Is stopped and displayed, so that automatic betting is executed and the 1-bet lamp D211 lights up (when automatic betting is executed, for example, 1-bet lamp D211 → 2-bet lamp D212 → 3-bet lamp D213). Will light up).

<Structure 5>
Next, the configuration 5 of FIG. 108 will be described. The instruction game is executed when the state related to AT is in the AT state (the game state in which the push order navigation is executed when the push order combination is won), and the first stop button and the second stop button are operated. In a situation where the push order navigation related to the 3 stop is displayed on the effect display device S40 and the push order navigation related to the game is displayed on the push order display device D270, the right stop button is operated as the third stop. (Pressed). By pressing the stop button, it is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has changed from off to on by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side → sub-control from the main control board M side. A command related to the detection of the third stop button is sent to the board S side → The sub-control board S side receives the command → The push order navigation disappearance effect related to the right reel (right stop button) is displayed on the effect display device S40 (display start). ). In the game, the player has won the predetermined push order re-game, and the player is most advantageous by stopping the game in the order of "middle->left->right" (RT state with high re-game winning probability). (For example, when the middle first stop is the most profitable three-choice push-order re-game, "re-game-D2" is won).

After that, while pressing the right stop button, the display of the push order navigation disappearance effect ends (the push order navigation in the effect display device S40 ends). After that, when the right stop button is released (it is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has been turned from on to off by the interrupt processing on the main control board M side), the symbol combination related to the replay is performed. Is stopped and displayed, so that automatic betting is executed, the 1-bet lamp D211 lights up, and after the 1-bet lamp D211 lights up, the push-order navigation in the push-order display device D270 ends.

In this way, for example, in the case where the configuration 1 of FIG. 104 and the configuration 5 of FIG. It is possible to provide a gaming machine that enables even a player who does not have a mark to determine which small winning combination has won a prize due to the difference in the end timing of the push order navigation.

As described above, the end timing of the push order navigation in the case of the push order bell as the push order combination or the push order replay combination has been described. In the effect display device S40, as the timing at which the push order navigation ends, only the case of "when the third stop button is pressed" has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this. As the period for ending the game, if any of the third stop button operation (pressing) → the third stop button not pressing → winning judgment → payout completion based on winning, the timing to end the push order navigation is arbitrarily determined. Is possible. Further, in the push order display device D270, as the timing at which the push order navigation ends, the period during which the push order navigation ends differs depending on whether the winning combination is the push order bell or the push order replay combination. ing. As an example of the case where the winning combination is the push order replay combination, the timing at which the push order navigation ends is set as "when the 1-bet lamp is lit", and the push order is displayed by arbitrarily setting the lighting timing of the 1-bet lamp D211. The end timing of the push order navigation of the device D270 changes significantly. As an example, if the lighting timing of the 1-bet lamp D211 is at the start of the next game, it is the end period of the push order navigation when the winning combination is the push order bell. The timing is later than "Stop button not pressed-> Winning judgment-> Completion of payout based on winning", "3rd stop button operation (pressing)-> No 3rd stop button pressed-> Winning judgment-> Completion of payout based on winning-> 1 bet lamp If the lighting timing of the 1-bet lamp D211 is not pressing the 3rd stop button, then "3rd stop button operation (pressing)-> 3rd stop button not pressed-> 1-bet lamp lighting-> winning. Judgment → Completion of payout based on winning ", and the winning combination will be included within the end period of the push order navigation at the time of the push order bell.

Similar to the timing when the push order navigation is displayed (display start), the order of the timing when the push order navigation ends is also based on the third stop button operation (press) → the third stop button not pressed → winning judgment → winning. An example of the order in which the push order navigation on the push order display device D270, the effect display device S40, the voice, and the reel window frame lamp D310 is completed during the payout completion period will be described.
(1) Push order display device → effect display device → voice → reel window frame lamp (2) push order display device → effect display device → reel window frame lamp → voice (3) push order display device → voice → effect display device → Reel window frame lamp (4) Push order display device → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Effect display device (5) Push order display device → Reel window frame lamp → Effect display device → Voice (6) Push order display device → Reel window Frame lamp → voice → effect display device (7) effect display device → push order display device → voice → reel window frame lamp (8) effect display device → push order display device → reel window frame lamp → sound (9) effect display device → Voice → Push order display device → Reel window frame lamp (10) Production display device → Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Push order display device (11) Production display device → Reel window frame lamp → Push order display device → Voice (12 ) Effect display device → reel window frame lamp → voice → push order display device (13) voice → push order display device → effect display device → reel window frame lamp (14) voice → push order display device → reel window frame lamp → effect Display device (15) Voice → Production display device → Push order display device → Reel window frame lamp (16) Voice → Production display device → Reel window frame lamp → Push order display device (17) Voice → Reel window frame lamp → Push order Display device → effect display device (18) voice → reel window frame lamp → effect display device → push order display device (19) reel window frame lamp → push order display device → effect display device → voice (20) reel window frame lamp → Push order display device → voice → effect display device (21) reel window frame lamp → effect display device → push order display device → voice (22) reel window frame lamp → effect display device → voice → push order display device (23) reel Window frame lamp → voice → push order display device → effect display device (24) Reel window frame lamp → voice → effect display device → push order display device In this way, the third stop button operation (press) → the third stop button is not In the period of pressing → winning judgment → payout completion based on winning, it is possible to appropriately determine the timing at which the pushing order navigation ends.

Further, as one of the effect means controlled by the sub-control board S, it is controlled by the sub-control board S provided inside the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43). An example of the order in which the push-order navigation with the push-order navigation by the stop button lamp S60 is completed will be described. In addition, as a process until the end of the push order navigation by the stop button lamp S60, the main control board M detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the third stop button has been turned from on to off → the main control board M. Sends a command related to the operation of the third stop button to the sub-control board S side by timer interrupt processing → The sub-control board S receives the command → Stop button lamp S60 provided inside the third stop button Turns off (starts turning off). Further, the main control board M detects that the sensor for detecting the operation of the first stop button has been turned from on to off. → The main control board M stops the first stop on the sub control board S side by timer interrupt processing. Send a command related to button operation → The sub-control board S receives the command → Turn off the stop button lamp S60 provided inside the first stop button (start turning off) and provide it inside the second stop button. Turns on (starts lighting) the stop button lamp S60.
(25) Push-order display device-> effect display device->voice-> reel window frame lamp-> stop button (third stop button lamp goes off)
(26) Push-order display device-> effect display device-> reel window frame lamp->sound-> stop button (third stop button lamp goes off)
It is possible to configure such as. The timing of the end of the push order navigation by the stop button D40 is the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40, voice, reel, like the reel window frame lamp D310 that executes the push order navigation by turning on or off the lamp. It may be before or after the window frame lamp D310. Further, when the third stop button is operated, the light may be turned off by pressing the third stop button, or may be turned off by not pressing the third stop button.

As described above, in this example, one game progresses based on << configuration related to the display start of the push order navigation >> and << configuration related to the display end of the push order navigation >>. .. A concrete example of the flow of one game from when the push order navigation is displayed (display start) to when the push order navigation ends is described.
1. 1. Push order navigation display (display start)
Start lever operation → Display of push order navigation (display start) (push order display device D270) → Display of push order navigation (display start) (effect display device S40)
2. From the first stop button operation to the second stop button operation 2-1. Production display device S40
Display of push order disappearance effect corresponding to operation of 1st stop button (display start) → End of display of push order disappearance effect corresponding to operation of 1st stop button → Change of display mode of 2nd reel push order navigation → Display of push order disappearance effect (display mode has been changed) corresponding to the operation of the 2nd stop button (display start) → End of display of push order disappearance effect corresponding to the operation of the 2nd stop button → 3rd reel Change of display mode of push order navigation 2-2. Push order display device D270
The push order display device D270 is in a lit state. 3. 3. 3rd stop button operation-end of push-order navigation display 3rd stop button operation-> push-order display device off-> display of push-order navigation disappearance effect corresponding to 3rd stop button operation (display start)-> 3rd stop button End of display of push order disappearance effect corresponding to operation In this way, the flow of one game proceeds. The example described above is just one example, for example, 1. The push order navigation display (display start) may include the reel window frame lamp D310 and the sound output from the speaker S20, and the push order navigation display (display start) timing and push order may be included. The order in which the navigation is displayed (display starts) is not limited to this. In addition, 2. In the first stop button operation to the second stop button operation, the effect display device S40 displays the push order disappearing effect corresponding to each stop button (display start), and changes the display mode of the push order navigation corresponding to the next reel. The order of doing this is not limited to this. In addition, 3. In the third stop button operation to the end of the display of the push order navigation, the order of the display end of the push order navigation of the push order display device D270 and the effect display device S40 is not limited to this, and the timing of the end of the push order navigation is more detailed. It may be specified (it can be further classified by pressing the third stop button, not pressing the third stop button, etc.).

By configuring as in this example, the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the start timing of the push order navigation displayed on the effect display device S40 are different. It is possible to avoid the situation where the display devices must be visually recognized at the same time, and the player can reduce the game burden of the player being able to visually recognize the push order navigation on each display device at the timing when the push order navigation occurs. The end timing of the push order navigation displayed on the display device D270 and the effect display device S40 is set for a predetermined period (third stop button operation (press) → no third stop button pressed → winning judgment → completion of payout based on winning. By specifying the period), for example, the end timing of the push order navigation displayed on the push order display device D270 and the end timing of the push order navigation displayed on the effect display device S40 are different, so that the two display devices are displayed. It is possible to avoid the situation where the push order navigation must be visually recognized at the same time, and the player can visually recognize the end of the push order navigation on each display device at the timing when the push order navigation occurs, which is user-friendly. A game machine can be provided.

<Display mode when the push order is incorrect>
Here, in the game in which the push order navigation is executed, an example of the configuration of the display mode of the push order navigation when the game is executed in the push order (or different operation timing) different from the push order navigation is described in detail. Describe. Here, an example is illustrated in which a game in which the push order bell is won and the correct push order is “left → middle → right” is executed.

In the situation where "123" is displayed as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40 and "= 1" is displayed as the push order navigation on the push order display device D270, the middle stop button is displayed as the first stop operation. (The correct pressing order corresponds to the left stop button) is operated, and it is detected that the sensor for detecting the operation of the first stop button is turned from off to on as interrupt processing on the main control board M side → main control A command related to the detection of the first stop button is transmitted from the board M side to the sub control board S side → the sub control board S side receives the command → the sub control board S side displays all “123” on the effect display device S40. Execute the process to erase.
It may be configured as described above. As described above, in the game in which the push order navigation is executed, when a stop button that is not the correct push order is operated, all reels (or stop buttons) are operated on the sub control board S side. While erasing the push order navigation corresponding to, the main control board M side is configured to maintain the display of the push order navigation. The push order navigation on the main control board M side (push order navigation by the push order display device D270) is for detecting the operation of the third stop button as an interrupt process on the main control board M side during the third stop operation. It is configured to be erased when it detects that the sensor has turned from on to off).

<< Configuration related to reel control and push order navigation >>
Next, the configuration related to the reel stop control and the display control of the push order navigation (effect display device S40) will be described. In the game, if the player has won the predetermined push order bell and the stop operation is performed in the order of "middle->left->right", it is most advantageous to the player (for example, the number of payouts is large). (When winning "Prize-A3") is illustrated.

<Structure 1>
First, in the upper left diagram of FIG. 109, the instruction game related to the push order bell is executed in the AT state, and "213" is displayed as the push order navigation on the effect display device S40. The middle stop button is pressed at the timing when the 11th replay symbol is located in the middle of the middle reel, and the display corresponding to the push order navigation "1" of the middle reel changes to the push order navigation disappearance effect. The middle reel stop button is still being pressed. Further, the middle reel is controlled so as to stop the symbols constituting the symbol combination that is the maximum number of 11 cards to be paid out by the stop operation of the middle reel, which is the correct push order. In this example, the 15th bell is configured to stop at the middle stage (effective line) of the middle reel. That is, when the middle stop button is operated at this timing, the maximum number of frames (4 frames in this example) is slipped from the 11th replay A, and the 15th bell is stopped and displayed on the winning line. Control is performed to make it.

Here, the operation control of the stepping motor from the stop operation to the stop of the reel will be described with reference to FIG. 35. For example, at the timing when the reel stop operation is performed, the state transitions from the reel constant speed state (4) in FIG. 35 <reel rotation speed image> to the reel deceleration standby state (5). In this reel deceleration standby state, the distance between the position where the stop operation is performed and the position of the symbol constituting the symbol combination related to the condition device won in the game is calculated, and a predetermined period (for example, within 190 ms) is calculated. By determining that it is possible to stop and display the symbols constituting the symbol combination related to the conditional device won in the game on the winning line, the symbol combination related to the conditional device won in the game is configured. Continue the rotation so that the symbol is stopped and displayed. Then, at the timing when the symbols constituting the symbol combination related to the condition device won in the game reach the winning line, the reel deceleration state of (6) is transitioned and the reel stop state of (7) is controlled. do.

After that, as shown in the upper right corner of FIG. 109, in the effect display device S40, the push order navigation disappearance effect of the middle reel is erased (display ends), and the middle reel stops and displays the 15th bell on the winning line. The slip control is continued in order to make it. The middle stop button is being pressed. Next, as shown in the lower left of FIG. 109, the effect display device S40 changes the display mode to highlight the push order navigation corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed next. The display mode that changes at this time may be any mode as long as the player can recognize the stop button to be stopped (significantly changing the number, moving the number, making the number shine, etc.). ). On the other hand, the middle reel continues the sliding control in order to stop and display the 15th bell on the winning line. The middle reel stop button is being pressed. The timing for changing the display mode to highlight the push order navigation corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed may be before the push order navigation disappearance effect is erased (display end) or in the push order. It may be after the navigation disappearance effect is erased (display end), or at the same time as the push order navigation disappearance effect is erased (display end).

After that, after the middle stop button has been pressed for a predetermined time, the 15th bell on the middle reel is stopped and displayed on the winning line. The predetermined time here is a time (for example, during 190 ms) in which the maximum slip control of the middle reel is performed. As described above, in this example, when the stop operation is performed according to the push order navigation, the stop operation is performed before the reel on which the stop operation is performed is displayed as a stop (before the next stop button operation becomes effective). It is configured so that the push order navigation corresponding to the reel in which the above is performed can be deleted, and the display mode of the push order navigation corresponding to the reel to be stopped next can be changed.

Here, as an example that can be carried out in this example, the case where the stop operation is performed at the position where the maximum number of frames slips occurs has been described. When the stop operation is performed at the position, the timing for changing the display mode to highlight the push order navigation corresponding to the reel to which the stop operation should be performed is after the reel is stopped and displayed. Even if the number of frames is 0, the display mode highlights the push order navigation corresponding to the reel on which the next stop operation should be performed before the timing when the next stop button operation becomes effective. It is configured to change. With this configuration, even if the number of frames is 0, the stop button will be operated after recognizing the reel to be stopped next, and the player will mistakenly perform the stop operation in the pressing order. Can be prevented. In addition, it is more preferable that the timing for changing the push order navigation corresponding to the reel to which the next stop operation should be performed to the display mode for highlighting is earlier, and even in the case of 0 frame slip, the timing should be as early as possible. Is preferable.

Further, in this example, the push order bell has been described as an example, but it can be applied not only to the push order bell but also to all the condition devices that generate the push order navigation. Further, as the effect means for notifying the pressing order, lighting by the reel window frame lamp D310 or the sound output from the speaker S20 may be used. For example, when the push order navigation using the sound output from the reel window frame lamp D310 or the speaker S20 is included, the display mode of the push order navigation corresponding to the next reel is changed before the effect display device S40 is changed. Execute push order navigation corresponding to the next reel (in the case of reel window frame lamp D310, the lamp corresponding to the next reel is turned on, and in the case of voice, the dialogue corresponding to the next reel is output as voice). It is possible to configure.

Further, as the configuration related to << Reel control and push order navigation >> in this example, the push order navigation by the effect display device S40 has been described as an example of the effect means for executing the push order navigation. For example, even if the reel window frame lamp D310, the voice, and the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) are configured to include the push order navigation by the stop button lamp S60 provided inside. good. Push-order navigation by the reel window frame lamp D310 is executed by turning on (blinking) and turning off the reel window frame lamp, and push-order navigation by voice is "left", "right", and "middle" from the speaker S20. Is executed by outputting, and the push order navigation by the stop button lamp S60 provided inside the stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) is the left stop button corresponding to the reel. It is executed by turning on (blinking) and turning off D41.

For example, in the configuration related to << reel control and push-order navigation >> in this example, the reel window frame lamp D310, voice, and stop button D40 (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43). ) Is included
(1) Reel window frame lamp D310
(1-1) Turn off the lamp corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation was performed (1-2) Turn on the lamp corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed (2) Voice (2-1) Next Audio output corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed (3) Stop button D40
(3-1) Turn off the lamp corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation is performed (3-2) Turn on the lamp corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed (4) Effect display device S40
(4-1) Display the push order disappearance effect corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation was performed (display end)
(4-2) Change in display mode for highlighting push order navigation corresponding to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed Next. The configuration related to push order navigation for each effect means can be specified as described above. The order in which these configurations (1-1) to (4-2) are executed may be determined in any way. For example, the order of execution may be determined for each effect means (for example, processing is performed in the order of reel window frame lamp → sound → stop button → effect display device), or the order of execution may be determined for each reel. Alternatively, (for example, processing is performed in the order of processing related to the reel on which the stop operation is performed → processing related to the reel on which the stop operation should be performed next), or a combination of these may be configured.

Further, in this example, as << configuration related to reel control and push order navigation >>, the description was given with reference to FIG. 109, and in FIG. 109, the case where the first stop operation was performed was described as an example. The configuration to which this example can be applied is not limited to the first stop operation. For example, when the second stop operation is performed, it is applicable even when the third stop operation is performed. At the time of the third stop operation, the process corresponding to the reel to which the stop operation should be performed next (for example, the change to the "display mode for highlighting the push order navigation" in the effect display device S40, the reel window frame lamp The process of "lighting of the lamp corresponding to the reel to which the stop operation should be performed next") in D310 is not executed.

<Effect>
With this configuration, even when the stop button is operated according to the push order navigation and the reel corresponding to the stop button executes the stop control accompanied by the sliding of the maximum number of frames, the effect display device S40. End of push order navigation display corresponding to the stop button (from start to end of display of extinction effect), and change of display mode of push order navigation display corresponding to the stop button to be stopped next (start of highlighting) Can be executed before the next stop button operation becomes effective, so that it is possible to prevent the player from accidentally operating the stop button before recognizing the stop button to be stopped next. ..

<<<<<< Third embodiment medal addition processing by the insertion sensor >>>>>
Next, as a third embodiment, the timing of the process of adding the game medals inserted into the medal insertion slot D170 as credits will be described (see FIG. 113). The game medals inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 pass through the insertion reception sensor D10s in the medal selector DS, which is the path of the game medals, and the predetermined passing conditions (the passing game medals satisfy the standard). If the condition (such as not being determined to be an error) is satisfied, the game medal flows downward through the medal flow path DR in the medal selector DS without causing an error. A first input sensor D20s and a second input sensor D30s are provided further behind the input reception sensor D10s, and a game medal that satisfies the dimensional standard and is accepted receives the first input sensor D20s and the second input sensor D30s. When passing, if it is determined that the inserted game medal is normally inserted, the inserted game medal is detected as a bet medal, and credit addition can be performed. When the game medal passes, the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s detect the insertion of the game medal, and the signal (information on the timing at which the first insertion sensor D20s is turned on, the first insertion sensor D20s is sent. Information on the time from when it is turned on to when it is turned off, information on when the second input sensor D20s is turned on, information on the time when the second input sensor D20s is turned on and when it is turned off, etc.) It is supplied to the main control board M. Here, the timing at which credit addition can be performed can be determined by the on / off status of each of the first input sensor D20s and the second input sensor D30s.

<<< Timing chart for detecting game medals by the input sensor >>>
FIG. 110 is a timing chart when the game medal passes through the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s. For example, it is assumed that the first insertion sensor D20s detects the passage (off → on) of the game medal at the timing of 1 in the figure. Subsequently, it is assumed that the second insertion sensor D30s detects the passage (off → on) of the game medal at the timing of 2 in the figure. The time information and the like related to these timings are supplied to the main control board M as the above-mentioned signals. Subsequently, it is assumed that the first insertion sensor D20s finishes detecting the game medal (on → off) at the timing of 3 in the figure. Here, the time A from the detection of the game medal by the first input sensor D20s to the end of the detection of the game medal is calculated by the main control board M, and A is within a predetermined range (in the third embodiment, If 4 ms ≦ A <183 ms), it is determined that the passage of the game medal is normally detected. Further, the time B from the detection of the game medal by the second insertion sensor D30s to the end of the detection by the first insertion sensor D20s is calculated by the main control board M, and B is within a predetermined range (2ms ≦ B <. If it is 115 ms), it is determined that the passage of the game medal is normally detected. After that, it is assumed that the second insertion sensor D30s finishes the detection of the game medal (on → off) at the timing of 4 in the figure. The time C from the detection of the game medal by the second insertion sensor D30s to the end of detection by the second insertion sensor D20s is calculated by the main control board M, and C is within a predetermined range (4ms ≦ C <183ms). If so, it is determined that the passage of the game medal is normally detected. In this way, it is determined whether the game medal has normally passed through the medal selector DS at the timing when the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s are turned on or off, and further, the first insertion sensor The game medals inserted at any timing when the D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s are turned on or off are detected as bet medals, and credits are added.

<<< Example of medal addition processing by the input sensor in the third embodiment >>>
<< Configuration 1 >>
Next, in the third embodiment, an example of the timing at which the inserted game medal is detected as a bet medal and the credit addition is performed will be described in detail. 11 to 112 are flowcharts reflecting the processing at the credit addition timing in the third embodiment in the game progress control processing according to the subroutine of step 1200. FIG. 113 is an image diagram of the timing at which credit addition is performed when the insertion process is normally executed for the inserted game medals. In the flowchart of FIG. 111, the description of the same content as that of FIG. 17 will be omitted (steps 1220 to 1225, and steps 1232 and later). First, in FIG. 111, in step 1226-1 (fourth), the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the blocker D100 is on. In the case of Yes in step 1226-1 (4th), in step 1226-2 (4th), the CPUC100 of the main control board M has the first input sensor D20s on and the second input sensor D30s off. (Image by middle and upper part of FIG. 113, the first insertion sensor D20s is turned off → on at the timing when the game medal approaches the first insertion sensor D20s). In the case of Yes in step 1226-2 (fourth), in step 1226-3 (fourth), whether or not the CPUC100 of the main control board M has the first input sensor D20s on and the second input sensor D30s on. Judgment (image diagram by the upper right corner of FIG. 113, the second insertion sensor D30s is turned off → on at the timing when the game medal approaches the second insertion sensor D30s). In the case of Yes in step 1226-3 (fourth), in step 1226-6 (fourth), whether or not the CPUC100 of the main control board M is the first input sensor D20s off and the second input sensor D30s on. Judgment (image diagram by the lower left of FIG. 113, the first insertion sensor D20s is turned on → off at the timing when the game medal exceeds the detection range of the first insertion sensor D20s). In the case of Yes in step 1226-6 (4th), in step 1226-8 (4th), the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines that the insertion of one normal game medal has been accepted, and the credit addition process is performed. Will be done. Further, in step 1226-9 (fourth), the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is off (image diagram game according to the middle and lower stages of FIG. 113). The second insertion sensor D30s is turned on and off when the medal exceeds the detection range of the second insertion sensor D30s). In the case of Yes in step 1226-9 (4th), it is determined that the insertion of one normal game medal is completed, and for example, when the number of bets satisfies the specified number, the operation of the start lever D50 is valid. Processing such as setting is executed, and the process proceeds to step 1232.

<Effect 1>
In the third embodiment, an example of executing the credit addition process at the timing when the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on has been described. Conventionally, the credit addition process is executed at the timing when "the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on → the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is off". However, by configuring as in the third embodiment, for example, in the state where the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on, the credit addition process has not yet been performed, but an error occurs at this timing. If this happens, the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines that an error has occurred, and an execution process for performing a predetermined medal insertion error process (for example, turning off the blocker D100 and refunding the game medal to the discharge port D240 by the blocker D100) is performed. It is possible to prevent the game medal from getting into the game machine (swallowing) even though the credit addition process is not executed in time.

<Effect 2>
Further, since the credit addition process is not executed at the timing when the second insertion sensor D30s remains off and only the first insertion sensor D20s is turned on, the position closer to the medal insertion slot 170 than the second insertion sensor D30s. It is also possible to prevent a goto action (for example, Clemangoto) by the first input sensor D20s provided in the above, to provide an illegally strong gaming machine, and to provide a user-friendly gaming machine.

<<< Subroutine due to input sensor error in the third embodiment >>>
If No in Step 1226-3 (4th), Step 1226-6 (4th), and Step 1226-9 (4th), Step 1226-4 (4th), Step 1226-7 (4th). In step 1226-10 (fourth), the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the condition for generating a predetermined medal insertion error is satisfied. The medal insertion error here includes, for example, an insertion medal backflow error, an insertion number error, an insertion medal retention error, and the on / off status (including time) of sensors such as the first insertion sensor and the second insertion sensor. Based on, it is determined whether or not any of the errors has occurred (occurrence conditions differ depending on the type of error). These errors are detected, for example, based on the on / off detection of the first closing sensor D20s and the second closing sensor D30s in FIG. 110. If Yes in any of step 1226-4 (4th), step 1226-7 (4th), and step 1226-10 (4th), the medal insertion error processing is executed in step 1226-5 (4th). Will be done. FIG. 112 is a flowchart relating to a subroutine when a medal insertion error occurs. First, in step 1226-12 (fourth), the CPUC100 of the main control board M detects which error flag is on, and in step 1226-13 (fourth), an error detection command (to the sub side). (For example, a command related to the fact that an error has been detected) is set (for example, set in the register area), and the process proceeds to step 1226-14 (fourth). In 1226-13 (fourth), the information related to the error corresponding to the turned-on error flag (the error currently occurring) is configured to be transmitted to the sub-control board side. In addition, the error undetected command may be set only when the error is cleared from the state in which the error occurred (only when it is determined that the flag is turned off), and when the error is not detected, the command is applicable. It is not necessary to execute the information set processing. Error processing will be executed according to the type of error that has occurred, but the error detection command may execute set processing only when any error occurs from the state where no error has occurred. , Even if the set process is executed when the type of error changes from the state in which the first error (for example, the inserted medal retention error) has occurred to the second error (for example, the payout medal retention error). good. In step 1226-14 (fourth), the CPUC100 of the main control board M determines whether or not the currently occurring error has been cleared. When it is determined that the error has been cleared, the error flag currently occurring in step 1226-15 is turned off, and the subroutine ends. As described above, an example of error detection based on the detection of the game medal by the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s has been described. In the error detection, for example, the medal insertion slot D170 in the medal selector DS has been described. It is also possible to detect an error based on the detection of the game medal of the insertion reception sensor D10s provided in the vicinity, and an example of error detection based on the detection of the game medal of the insertion reception sensor D10s will be described below. ..

<<< Detecting an error based on the input monitoring counter in the third embodiment >>>
<< Configuration 2 >>
The insertion reception sensor D10s is provided as a first sensor through which the game medals inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 pass. The insertion reception sensor D10s has a function of selecting game medals inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 mainly based on the dimensions and accepting only game medals conforming to the standard dimensions, and it is determined that the insertion reception sensor D10s does not conform to this function. The medal (or other foreign matter) is configured to be refunded to the outlet D240 by the blocker D100. At this time, when it is determined that the matching game medal has passed, the input reception sensor D10s is changed from off to on, and the signal is supplied to the main control board M. When the main control board M receives the signal that the insertion reception sensor D10s is turned on, the main control board M performs an addition process from 0 to 1 by a counter (hereinafter, referred to as an insertion monitoring counter) that counts the passage of game medals. Then, the main control board M monitors the insertion at the timing when the game medal flows down the path in the medal selector DS and, for example, the second insertion sensor D30s is turned from on to off (corresponding to the timing of 4 in FIG. 110). The counter performs subtraction processing from 1 to 0. At this time, for example, if any problem occurs with respect to the insertion of game medals in the period from 1 to 4 in the timing chart of FIG. 110, the game medal counting process of the insertion monitoring counter will not be performed normally. .. For example, when the second insertion sensor D30s does not turn from on to off, the insertion monitoring counter is not subtracted, and the insertion monitoring counter continues to be added, the insertion medal retention error can be detected. Further, when the second closing sensor D30s is turned from on to off before the closing reception sensor D10s and the closing monitoring counter is subtracted first, the closing monitoring counter becomes negative. Inserted medal backflow error can be detected.

<Effect>
In this way, the error determination can be performed based on the detection of the game medal by the three sensors of the first insertion sensor D20s, the second insertion sensor D30s, and the insertion reception sensor D10s, thereby relating to the insertion of the game medal. It is possible to reliably detect various errors, provide an illegally strong gaming machine, and eventually provide a user-friendly gaming machine.

<<< Output of medal insertion sound in the third embodiment >>>
In the third embodiment, the output timing of the medal insertion sound output after detecting the inserted game medal as a bet medal will be described in detail. In the third embodiment, an example of executing the credit addition process at the timing when the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on has been described. However, the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D20s is on. An error may occur when the sensor D30s is on (for example, an insertion medal retention error due to an abnormally long turn-on time of the second insertion sensor D30s). In the third embodiment, the credit addition process is executed at the timing when the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on. Therefore, for example, it is assumed that an error occurs after the credit addition process is executed. NS. In the third embodiment, the output timing of the medal insertion sound output after the credit addition processing and the error sound output from the speaker S20 due to the error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s will be described.

<< Configuration 3 >>
First, as the timing A, the medal insertion sound is configured to be output before the error sound output from the speaker S20 due to the error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s. More specifically, according to the timing chart of FIG. 110, subtracting 115 ms, which is the upper limit value of B, from 183 ms, which is the upper limit value of the period of C, gives 68 ms. That is, in this period, the CPUC100 of the main control board M "sets the command related to medal insertion reception-> medal insertion reception-> sends the command to the sub-control board side-> sets the error detection command (if there is an error)". By executing the process as described above, the medal insertion sound can be output before the error sound output from the speaker S20 due to the error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s.

<< Configuration 4 >>
As a modification of the timing A, the timing of the credit addition process may be different. That is, the CPUC100 of the main control board M processes "set a command related to medal insertion reception-> execute credit addition processing-> send a command to the sub-control board side-> set an error detection command (if there is an error)". May be done.

<Effect>
With this configuration, the medal insertion reception is accepted at the timing when "the first insertion sensor D20s is on and the second insertion sensor D30s is on → the first insertion sensor D20s is off and the second insertion sensor D30s is on". This process is executed, and the subsequent timer interrupt process sends a command related to medal insertion acceptance from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side, and the medal insertion sound is output on the sub control board S side. .. On the other hand, if the above-mentioned "first insertion sensor D20s is off and second insertion sensor D30s is on" continues and an insertion medal retention error occurs, the insertion medal is inserted after the medal insertion sound has already been output. Since it is determined that a retention error has occurred (because the first insertion sensor D20s is off and the second insertion sensor D30s is on for a predetermined time or longer), the player outputs an error sound related to the insertion medal retention error. It is possible to confirm the medal insertion sound before, and it is possible to prevent a situation in which it is worried that the game medal may not be inserted normally due to the insertion medal retention error and the loss may have occurred.

<< Configuration 5 >>
Next, as the timing B, the medal insertion sound is configured to be output after the error sound output from the speaker S20 due to the error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s. It is determined that there is at least 67 ms or more from the credit addition process until the error is detected by the second input sensor D30s, but during this period, the CPUC100 of the main control board M intentionally determines. , The command related to the medal insertion reception is configured not to be transmitted to the sub-control board side. After that, an error detection command based on error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s is set, and then a command related to medal insertion reception is transmitted to the sub-control board side. That is, the CPU 100 of the main control board M "executes credit addition processing-> detects error flag-> sets error detection command-> sends error detection command to sub-control board side-> sets command related to medal insertion reception-> sub-control The medal insertion sound is output after the error sound output from the speaker S20 by the error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s by configuring the process to execute the process such as "send the command related to the medal insertion reception to the board side". It becomes possible to output. At this time, it is preferable that the command related to the medal insertion acceptance is transmitted to the sub side by a timer interrupt processing different from that when the error detection command is transmitted.

<< Configuration 6 >>
As a modification of the timing B, the timing of the credit addition process may be different. That is, the CPUC100 of the main control board M "detects an error flag-> sets an error detection command-> sends an error detection command to the sub-control board side-> sets a command related to medal insertion reception-> executes a credit addition process-> sub-control A process of "sending a command related to medal insertion acceptance to the board side" may be performed.

<Effect>
With this configuration, the first throw-in sensor D20s is on and the second throw-in sensor D30s is on-> the first throw-in sensor D20s is off and the second throw-in sensor D30s is on. It is determined that a retention error has occurred (because the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on for a predetermined time or longer), and an error detection command is issued from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side. Is transmitted, and an error sound related to the inserted medal retention error is output. After that, after the process related to the medal insertion reception is executed, the command related to the medal insertion reception is transmitted from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side, and the medal insertion sound is output on the sub control board S side. It becomes. If the situation of "the first insertion sensor D20s is off and the second insertion sensor D30s is on" continues and an insertion medal retention error occurs, an insertion medal retention error occurs before the medal insertion sound is output. In order to determine that the medal has been inserted (because the first insertion sensor D20s is off and the second insertion sensor D30s is on for a predetermined time or longer), the player has an error related to the insertion medal retention error before the output of the medal insertion sound. The sound can be confirmed, and the player can immediately detect that the game medal has not been inserted normally.

<< Configuration 7 >>
Next, as the timing C, the medal insertion sound is output after the error sound output from the speaker S20 by the error detection by the second insertion sensor D30s, and is output after the error is cleared. It is determined that there is at least 67 ms or more from the credit addition process until the error is detected by the second input sensor D30s, but during this period, the CPUC100 of the main control board M intentionally determines. , It is the same as the second timing that the command related to the medal insertion acceptance is not transmitted to the sub control board side, but after the CPUC100 of the main control board M turns off the insertion error flag in step 1226-15. It is configured to send a command related to medal insertion reception to the sub-control board side. That is, the CPU 100 of the main control board M "executes credit addition processing-> detects an error flag-> sets an error detection command-> sends an error detection command to the sub-control board side-> ... (error cancellation processing during this period).・ ・ → Set error undetected command → Send error undetected command to sub-control board side → Set command related to medal insertion reception → Send command related to medal insertion reception to sub control board side ” By configuring to execute, it is possible to output the medal insertion sound after canceling the error.

<< Configuration 8 >>
As a modification of the timing C, the timing of the credit addition process may be different. That is, the CPUC100 of the main control board M "detects the error flag-> sets the error detection command-> sends the error detection command to the sub-control board side-> ... (error release processing during this period) ...-> error not detected. Set the command → Send the error undetected command to the sub control board side → Set the command related to the medal insertion reception → Execute the credit addition process → Send the command related to the medal insertion reception to the sub control board side ” May be good.

<Effect>
With this configuration, the first throw-in sensor D20s is on and the second throw-in sensor D30s is on-> the first throw-in sensor D20s is off and the second throw-in sensor D30s is on. It is determined that a retention error has occurred (because the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on for a predetermined time or longer), and an error detection command is issued from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side. Is transmitted, and an error sound related to the inserted medal retention error is output. After the error is resolved, an error undetected command is sent to the sub side, and the error sound related to the inserted medal retention error is terminated. Then, after the process related to the medal insertion reception is executed, the command related to the medal insertion reception is transmitted from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side, and the medal insertion sound is output on the sub control board S side. It becomes. If the situation of "the first insertion sensor D20s is off and the second insertion sensor D30s is on" continues and an insertion medal retention error occurs, an insertion medal retention error occurs before the medal insertion sound is output. (Because the situation where the first input sensor D20s is off and the second input sensor D30s is on continues for a predetermined time or longer), the error is further resolved and the output of the error sound is terminated. Since the error sound related to the inserted medal retention error can be confirmed before the output of the medal insertion sound and the medal insertion sound can be confirmed after the error is resolved, the player can normally confirm the medal insertion sound after the error is resolved. It is possible to recognize that a game medal has been inserted.

<<< Third Embodiment Medal error detection by shoot sensor >>>
Next, as a third embodiment, error detection using the shoot sensor D40s will be described in detail. FIG. 114 shows a medal flow path member (referred to as a chute body in the third embodiment) after passing through the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s in the path of the game medal in the medal selector DS. It is a figure. In FIG. 114, a shoot sensor D40s is provided below the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s, and the shoot sensor D40s is a normal medal insertion like the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s. However, in particular, in the third embodiment, it is configured to be able to detect an error (for example, a inserted medal retention error, an inserted medal backflow error, etc.) after the credit addition process has already been executed. ing.

Error detection by the shoot sensor D40s will be described in detail. For example, consider a case where game medals are retained further downstream of the shoot sensor D40s in the shoot body communicating with the hopper H40. The width of the path of the game medals in the shoot body is approximately the width of one game medal, and when one game medal stays in the path of the game medals in the shoot body, the game medals that pass through the path after that are one after another. And it will be in the state of the inserted medal retention error. In the third embodiment, the positions of three game medals are detected by the shoot sensor D40s from the position where the game medals are retained, but the position where the shoot sensor D40s is provided is not limited to this.

The detection of the game medal by the shoot sensor D40s is the same as the detection of the game medal by the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s. Information on the timing at which is turned on, information on the time from when the shoot sensor D40s is turned on to when it is turned off, etc.) is supplied to the main control board M. On the main control board M, game medals are normally inserted based on the information related to the signal detected by the shoot sensor D40s and the information related to the signal detected by the first input sensor D20s and the second input sensor D30s. Is determined. Specifically, the period from the timing when the first insertion sensor D20s or the second insertion sensor D30s starts to detect the game medal to the timing when the shoot sensor D40s starts to detect the game medal on the main control board M, and in advance. Compare with the specified period (the time to be detected by the shoot sensor D40s or less, also referred to as the theoretical period). For example, in the case of detecting the fourth game medal in FIG. 114, the fourth game medal from the timing when the fourth game medal is detected by the first insertion sensor D20s or the second insertion sensor D30s. Is compared with the theoretical period until it is detected by the shoot sensor D40s, and when the difference between the periods exceeds the range not detected as an error, an error (shoot sensor medal in the third embodiment) (Stay error) will be detected. The timing when the first insertion sensor D20s detects the game medal, the timing when the second insertion sensor D30s starts the detection of the game medal, or the timing when the first insertion sensor D20s finishes the detection of the game medal, the second insertion sensor Any of the timings at which the D30s finishes detecting the game medal may be set as the start timing of the theoretical period.

<< Third Embodiment Timing chart for detecting game medals by shoot sensor >>
FIG. 115 is a timing chart when the game medal passes through the first insertion sensor D20s, the second insertion sensor D30s, and the shoot sensor D40s. For example, it is assumed that the first insertion sensor D20s detects the passage (off → on) of the game medal at the timing of 1 in the figure. Subsequently, it is assumed that the second insertion sensor D30s detects the passage (off → on) of the game medal at the timing of 2 in the figure. The time information and the like related to these timings are supplied to the main control board M as the above-mentioned signals. After that, it is assumed that the shoot sensor D40s detects the passage (off → on) of the game medal at the timing of 3 in the figure. The period D from the detection of the game medal by the first insertion sensor D20s to the start of detection by the shoot sensor D40s, and the period from the detection of the game medal by the second insertion sensor D30s to the start of detection by the shoot sensor D40s. E is calculated by the main control board M, and with these periods as theoretical periods, it is determined whether or not the game medal based on the detection of the shoot sensor D40s normally passes through the shoot body. Further, an error that may occur after it is determined that the game medal has normally passed the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s can be detected by including the shoot sensor D40s.

<Effect>
With this configuration, for example, some error related to the passage of the game medal near the shoot sensor D40s (shoot sensor medal retention error) is detected, and the player is notified that an error has occurred. Is possible. Further, since the normal passage of the game medal by the shoot sensor D40s is determined based on the information related to the timing at which the detection of the game medal by the first insertion sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s is started, the first insertion is performed. Although the passage of the game medal is not detected by the sensor D20s and the second insertion sensor D30s, when the passage of the game medal is detected by the shoot sensor D40s, that is, an error related to the backflow of the insertion medal can be reliably detected. It becomes possible to provide a game machine that is resistant to fraud, and by extension, a user-friendly game machine.

<<<<<< 4th Embodiment Medal Return Member >>>>>
Next, as a fourth embodiment, an example of the mechanism of the medal return member D340 through which the game medal passes when the game medal is paid out to the medal tray D230 or returned to the medal tray D230 will be described. ..

FIG. 117 is a side view of the medal return member D340 as viewed from the direction in which the medal receiving port D341 (described later) is provided. FIG. 118 is a trajectory diagram of a game medal that is paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40, passes through the medal receiving entrance D341 (described later), and flows down toward the medal receiving tray D230. FIG. 119 depicts the trajectory of the game medal inside the side view of FIG. 117.

<<< Front view of medal return member >>>
FIG. 116 is a front view of the medal return member D340 according to the fourth embodiment. As an example of the medal return member D340, a game medal (blocker is off) in which the addition process to the bet or credit is not executed by the medal selector DS that detects the medal inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 and performs simple authentication. When returning the game medal that reached the blocker to the medal tray D230, the game medal passes through a predetermined flow path (hereinafter referred to as the first flow path) and is paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40. The game medal is configured to pass through a predetermined flow path (hereinafter referred to as a second flow path) and finally pay out the game medal to the medal tray D230.

The medal return member D340 passes through the first flow path through which an inappropriate game medal detected by the medal selector DS is returned to the medal tray D230, and the game medal paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40. It is configured to have at least a second flow path, and the game medals that pass through the two flow paths pass through the medal return member D340 and join when flowing down toward the medal tray D230. It is configured.

The second flow path in the medal return member D340 is at least a medal receiving port D341 for receiving the game medals paid out from the hopper H40 and a medal falling surface D342 on which the game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 fall. Is configured to have. Further, a medal non-drop surface D343 located opposite to the medal drop surface D342, a wall surface provided with a medal receiving port, and a medal drop surface D342 on which game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 fall. It is configured to have a space surrounded by and, and a game medal paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 passes through this space.

The medal receiving port D341 is configured to communicate with the medal payout device H of the hopper H40. Further, since the medal receiving entrance D341 is open, the game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 can surely pass through the medal receiving entrance D341. Further, in particular, in the fourth embodiment, the periphery of the opening of the medal receiving port D341 is referred to as an edge portion (for example, in the fourth embodiment, the outer peripheral portion in the shape of the opening of the medal receiving entrance D341 is referred to as an edge portion). ). In the regulation of the length and distance related to the medal receiving entrance D341, the starting point is any position corresponding to the edge of the medal receiving entrance D341.

Further, in the fourth embodiment, the shape of the medal falling surface D342 is formed in a substantially quadrangular shape, and the medal non-dropping surface D343 located opposite to the medal falling surface D342 is also formed in a substantially quadrangular shape. However, the shapes of the medal falling surface D342 and the medal non-dropping surface D343 are not limited to this.

In the fourth embodiment, the medal receiving entrance D341 is provided so as to be inclined in the downward-sloping direction, and the game medal that collides with the collision portion (not shown) provided in the front view direction of FIG. 116 falls. It is configured to be inclined substantially parallel to the medal falling surface D342. With this configuration, the game medal paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 and dropped on the medal falling surface D342 slides down from the medal falling surface D342 due to gravity, and the game medal is surely guided to the medal tray D230. It becomes possible to do. The direction in which the medal receiving entrance D341 and the medal falling surface D342 are inclined is not limited to this direction, and the medal receiving entrance D341 and the medal falling surface D342 may not be inclined together. The improper medal detected by the medal selector DS is configured to fall in the direction of the medal tray D230 from above when viewed from the player in the direction perpendicular to the inclination direction of the medal receiving entrance D341. ..

<<< Side view of the medal return member according to the fourth embodiment Trajectory view (perspective view) of the flow of the game medal >>>
Next, the dimensional definition in the configuration of the medal receiving member of the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 117 and 118. FIG. 117 is a side view of the medal return member D340 as viewed from the direction in which the medal receiving port D341 is provided. First, in the game medal, the thickness and the diameter are defined as a and b, respectively (see FIG. 116). The thickness of the game medal, a, is preferably about 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm, and the diameter of the game medal, b, is preferably about 24.5 mm to 25.5 mm. be.

Next, the distance from the medal falling surface D342 on which the game medal falls after being paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 to the edge of the medal receiving entrance D341 is c, which is perpendicular to the medal non-dropping surface D343. The longest distance from the medal non-falling surface D342 in the direction to the edge of the medal reception is d, and at the edge of the opening of the medal reception D341, at least one direction (for example, the first) in the bottom or height direction. 4 In the embodiment, the length (in the height direction of the opening of the medal receiving port D341), which has a substantially rectangular shape, is e, and the maximum of the medal falling surface D342 in the direction perpendicular to the opening surface of the medal receiving port D341. The length is defined as f. In the fourth embodiment, predetermined conditions are provided in the dimensions defined in this way. For example, the medal return member D340 is configured based on the following conditions.
c ≧ a ... Equation (1)
b> d ... Equation (2)
f ≧ 2b ・ ・ Equation (3)
b> e ... Equation (4)
In the fourth embodiment, the game medal can be applied to either the 25Φ size or the 30Φ size.

First, by satisfying the equations (1) and (3), it is possible to prevent the first game medal and the second game medal from colliding with each other. The distance from the medal falling surface D342 to the bottom of the medal receiving entrance 341 is larger than the thickness a of the game medal, and the game medal paid out from the medal payout device H is transferred from the medal receiving entrance D341 to the collision portion. Since it has a sufficient distance before it collides, it falls freely under the weight of the game medal, and when the game medal that collides with the collision part falls on the medal falling surface D342 (the game medal is sleeping). In the state), the game medal to be paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 is out of the area through which the game medal passes, so that the collision can be prevented.

Next, the first game medal (whether the game medal is sleeping or standing) paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 by satisfying the formula (4), and then It is possible to configure so that the second game medal paid out to the player does not collide with the second game medal, and the game medal paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 does not block the medal receiving entrance D341. Is.

Next, by satisfying the equation (3), the depth of the medal falling surface D342 toward the inside of the gaming machine has a sufficient distance from the diameter of the gaming medal, and one piece that collides with the collision portion. It is possible to prevent the game medal of the eye from bouncing back to the medal entrance D341.

By defining the dimensions in the configuration of the medal return member D340 as in formulas (1) to (4), the smooth hopper H40 can pay out the game medals from the medal payout device H, and the smooth game medals can be paid out. It is possible to guide the saucer D230. FIG. 118 is a locus diagram of a game medal that is paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40, passes through the medal receiving entrance D341, and flows down toward the medal receiving tray D230. For example, as an effect of defining the dimensions of the formulas (1) to (4), the first game medal paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 and the second game medal paid out after that. It is possible to configure the game medals so that they do not collide with medals and that the game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 do not block the medal receiving entrance D341.

As shown in FIG. 117, in this example, a protruding edge is provided on the entire outer circumference of the medal receiving port D341 on the outer side of the medal return member D340, but the inner side of the medal return member D340. A protruding edge may be provided on the entire outer circumference of the medal receiving port D341. With such a configuration, it is possible to make it more unlikely that the game medal paid out from the medal payout device H collides with the collision portion and then flows back to the medal receiving port D341.

<<< Fourth Embodiment: Trajectory view of game medal flow (side view) >>>
In FIG. 118, the trajectory of the game medal that is paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40, passes through the medal receiving entrance D341, and flows down toward the medal receiving tray D230 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 119. FIG. 119 depicts the trajectory of the game medal inside the side view of FIG. 117. First, as shown in the upper left figure, the first game medal is released from the medal receiving entrance D341. Next, as shown in the upper right figure, the second game medal is released from the medal entrance D341 in the same manner as the first game medal, and the first game medal is prepared in the front view direction of FIG. 116. It collides with a colliding part (not shown). The interval from the release of the first game medal from the medal receiving entrance D341 to the release of the second game medal can be determined by the rotation speed of the disk H50 of the medal payout device H. The rotation speed can be arbitrarily determined, but as shown in the upper right figure of the fourth embodiment, after the first game medal is paid out from the medal payout device H, the second game medal is a medal. It will be paid out from the payout device H, but the timing at which the second game medal is paid out from the medal payout device H is (1) approximately at the same time as the timing when the first game medal collides with the collision portion, ( 2) The timing may be before (immediately before) the first game medal collides with the collision part, and (3) the timing may be after the first game medal collides with the collision part. The distance of f (see FIG. 117) may be adjusted according to the timing at which the game medals of the eyes are paid out from the medal payout device H. Regarding (2) above, after the first game medal was paid out from the medal payout device H and passed through the medal receiving entrance D341, the first game medal proceeded horizontally by the diameter of the game medal (b) or more (above b). It is preferable to set the timing after (launched). Further, the timing at which the second game medal is paid out from the medal payout device H is the timing at which the time has elapsed since the first game medal was paid out from the medal payout device H. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the eye game medal and the second game medal collide with each other. On the other hand, if the time after the first game medal is paid out from the medal payout device H is too long, the interval between the game medal payout times becomes too long, and the tempo for paying out the game medal becomes too long. It gets worse. Further, since the internal size (depth) of the housing of the gaming machine is limited, the f (the maximum length of the medal falling surface D342 in the direction perpendicular to the opening surface of the medal receiving port D341) is also predetermined. It is difficult to secure more than the distance. For the above reasons, it is most preferable that the timing at which the second game medal is paid out from the medal payout device H is the timing immediately after the first game medal collides with the collision portion. With this configuration, it is possible to prevent the first game medal from colliding with the second game medal after colliding with the collision portion. It is desirable to configure the game medals to be paid out from the third and subsequent medals so that the game medals do not collide with each other. It is preferable to configure the game medals so that they do not collide with each other. Further, the collision portion may be configured to be protected by, for example, metal in order to enhance the durability of the medal return member D340 due to the collision of the game medal.

Next, as shown in the lower left row, after the first game medal collides with the collision portion, the medal falls on the medal falling surface D342. The second game medal passes above the first game medal and heads for the collision portion in the same manner as the first game medal. At this time, it is possible to prevent the first game medal and the second game medal from colliding with each other because the structure is as shown in the equation (1). Next, as shown in the lower right row, the first game medal that has fallen on the medal falling surface D342 is inclined in the inclined direction of the medal falling surface D342 due to gravity, and falls from the medal falling surface D342 to the medal tray D230. Is induced. After colliding with the collision portion, the second game medal falls on the medal falling surface D342 in the same manner as the first game medal. At this time, since the first game medal is configured to be inclined by gravity in the inclination direction of the medal falling surface D342, the first game medal and the second game medal collide with each other, and further. It is possible to prevent backflow in which medals that collide with the collision portion and bounce off enter the opening of the medal receiving port D341.

<< Effect 1 >>
The second game medal is released from the medal receiving entrance D341 toward the collision portion, and the first game medal falls on the medal drop surface D342 after colliding with the collision portion. At this time, the distance from the medal falling surface D342 to the bottom of the medal receiving entrance 341 is configured to be larger than the thickness a of the game medal, which is configured to satisfy the equations (1) and (3). In addition, since the game medal paid out from the medal payout device H has a sufficient distance from the medal receiving entrance D341 until it collides with the collision portion, the medal is freely dropped by the weight of the game medal. , When the game medal that collided with the collision part falls on the medal drop surface D342 (the game medal is sleeping), the game medal to be paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 is out of the area through which the medal is passed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a collision.

<< Effect 2 >>
For example, a gaming machine that is configured as equations (2) and (4) to prevent backflow in which medals that collide with a collision portion and bounce off enter the opening of the medal receiving port D341. Can be provided.

<< Effect 3 >>
For example, since it is configured as in the equation (3), the depth of the medal falling surface D342 toward the inside of the gaming machine has a sufficient distance from the diameter of the gaming medal, and the medal collides with the collision portion1. It is possible to provide a gaming machine capable of preventing a situation in which the first gaming medal bounces back to the medal receiving entrance D341.

<< Effect 4 >>
The first game medal that has fallen on the medal falling surface D342 falls from the medal falling surface D342 and flows down toward the medal tray D230, and the second game medal is in the lower left diagram of FIG. 119. As described above, the first game medal falls on the medal falling surface D342 at substantially the same position as the dropped position. With this configuration, it is possible to prevent the game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 from being paid out to the medal tray D230 due to the retention near the medal receiving entrance D341. A game machine can be provided.

<< Effect 5 >>
Provided is a game machine capable of preventing damage or deterioration of the medal return member D340 because it has a cushioning material that cushions the collision portion where the game medals paid out from the medal payout device H with speed collide. can do.

<< Effect 6 >>
The game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40 once collide with the collision part and lose the initial momentum of payout, so that the game medals collide with each other (the game medals returned from the medal selector DS and the hopper H40. A collision with a game medal paid out from the medal payout device H, or a collision between game medals paid out from the medal payout device H of the hopper H40, etc.) occurs, and the game medal flows down to the non-rhythmic medal tray D230. It is possible to prevent such a situation and provide a user-friendly gaming machine.

<<<<< Drive control of the medal payout device in the fifth embodiment >>>>>
<<< Timing chart of drive control of medal payout device >>>
Next, as a fifth embodiment, the drive control of the medal payout device H will be described. First, the operation control of the medal payout device H will be described with reference to FIG. 120. FIG. 120 is a timing chart relating to the detection of the hopper motor H80, which is driven when the game medal is paid out from the medal payout device H, and the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s. First, in the hopper motor H80, it is assumed that the hopper drive flag is on when the hopper motor H80 is being driven. When the game medals are paid out by the medal payout device H, the hopper motor H80 is driven to rotate the disc H50 around the disc rotation shaft H50a, and the game medals in the medal payout device H are released by the release urging means H70. Is displaced and flows down from the game medal outlet H60 toward the discharge port D240, so that the game medal is paid out. In the fifth embodiment, the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are detected to be on or off based on, for example, the displacement of the release urging means H70. Specifically, at the timing 1 in the figure, the first payout sensor H10s is turned on in a state where the release urging means H70 is not displaced to the position where the game medal is paid out (referred to as the initial position in the fifth embodiment). A signal indicating the state of is transmitted to the main control board M. Then, the displacement starts to the position where the release urging means H70 pays out the game medal, and the release urging means H70 starts moving from the initial position to mainly control the signal indicating that the first payout sensor H10s is in the off state. It is transmitted to the substrate M. A signal indicating that the second payout sensor H10s is in the ON state by displacing the release urging means H70 to the position where the game medal is paid out (referred to as the payout position in the fifth embodiment) at the timing of 2 in the figure. Is transmitted to the main control board M. Then, at the timing of 3 in the figure, the payout of the game medal is completed, and the release urging means H70 starts the displacement to the initial position again, so that the signal indicating that the second payout sensor H10s is in the off state is mainly controlled. It is transmitted to the substrate M. Then, at the timing of 4 in the figure, the release urging means H70 is displaced to the initial position again, so that a signal indicating that the first payout sensor H10s is in the ON state is transmitted to the main control board M. In the fifth embodiment, for example, the period from the timing 1 to the timing 2 is the predetermined range A (A <26 ms), and the period from the timing 2 to the timing 3 is the predetermined range B (9 ms ≦). B <60 ms), and by detecting that the period from the timing of 3 to the timing of 4 is within the predetermined range C (9 ms ≦ C <60), the medal payout device H is functioning normally and is normal. It is judged that various game medals will be paid out.

<<< 5th Embodiment Medal payout of the medal payout device-Stop of the medal payout device >>>
<< Configuration >>
Next, with reference to FIG. 121, a series of flow from the start of medal payout by the medal payout device H of the fifth embodiment to the stop of the medal payout device H will be described. First, although it is FIG. 121, in the fifth embodiment, in order to briefly explain a series of flow from the payout of the game medal to the stop of the medal payout device H, medals unnecessary for the configuration of the fifth embodiment are described. The configuration related to the payout device H is eliminated as much as possible. FIG. 121 is a front view of the disc H50 that is rotationally driven when paying out game medals.

In the fifth embodiment, the number of game medals to be paid out from the medal payout device H is five. The disc H50 has a plurality of circular cavities that are larger in size than the game medal, and the disc H50 is configured to cover the game medal, and the game medal is formed by rotating the disc H50 under the disc H50. By moving, the game medal is paid out from the discharge port D240. First, in the upper left diagram, the hopper motor H80 is before driving, and the first payout sensor H10s is on. In the fifth embodiment, this state is set as the initial position in the release urging means H70, and for the sake of clarification of the explanation, the initial position (disk H50) before the rotation of the disk H50 is provided on the outer circumference of the disk H50. do. This initial position (disc H50) is displaced in the rotational direction of the disc H50 each time a game medal is paid out. Further, in the fifth embodiment, the driving state of the hopper motor H80 is a constant speed state, and the description will be given from the timing of paying out the fourth game medal.

In the upper part of FIG. 121, the hopper motor H80 is driven by constant speed rotation, and the release urging means H70 is displaced from the initial position to the payout position to pay out the fourth game medal. At this time, it can be seen that at the initial position (disc H50), the third game medal is rotated by an angle A from the position where the third game medal is paid out. That is, when the driving state of the hopper motor H80 is a constant speed state, the disk H50 rotates by an angle A until the discharge urging means H70 is displaced from the initial position to the payout position. Further, the disk H50 does not rotate until the release urging means H70 is displaced from the discharge position to the initial position.

Next, in the lower left stage of FIG. 121, the hopper motor H80 is driven by constant speed rotation, and the release urging means H70 is displaced from the initial position to the payout position to pay out the fifth game medal. At this time, after the fourth game medal is paid out, the release urging means H70 is displaced from the payout position to the initial position, but during this time, the disc H50 is not rotating, so the fourth game medal It can be seen that the player is rotated by an angle A from the position where the fourth game medal is paid out, as in the case of paying out.

Then, as shown in the lower right row, after the fifth game medal is paid out, the drive of the hopper motor H80 is turned off, and the game medal payout is completed. After turning off the drive of the hopper motor H80, the rotation of the disc H50 is stopped, but the initial position (disc H50) is a position deviated from the position where the fifth game medal is paid out by an angle B in the rotation direction. Stop. The reason for this configuration is that, in particular, when paying out the first game medal, the hopper motor H80 does not enter the constant speed state immediately after the start of driving, and it takes a predetermined time to reach the constant speed state. It takes. That is, when the first piece (the hopper motor H80 is in the acceleration state to the constant speed state) is paid out and the release urging means H70 is in the initial position, the second and subsequent pieces (the hopper motor H80 is in the constant speed state). Compared to the case where the game medal is paid out, the hopper motor H80 is delayed by the amount of the acceleration state.

Here, a detailed description will be given from the state in which the hopper motor H80 is stopped until the first game medal is paid out. When the hopper motor H80 is driven, the hopper motor H80 goes from a stopped state to a constant speed state via an acceleration state. Here, the rotation speed in the constant speed state is A (m / t). The acceleration state is a state in which acceleration processing is performed from a speed of 0 to a constant speed of A, and the average rotation speed in the period from the speed of 0 to the constant speed state (the period of the acceleration state) is B (m / t). ), B <A. Therefore, the average rotation speed C (m / t) from the state where the hopper motor H80 is stopped until the first game medal is paid out is B <C <A.

Next, the period from the payment of the first game medal to the payment of the second game medal will be described in detail. Since the hopper motor H80 is in a constant speed state when the first game medal is paid out, it is in a constant speed state from the time when the first game medal is paid out until the second game medal is paid out. Will remain. Therefore, the average rotation speed from the time when the first game medal is paid out to the time when the second game medal is paid out is A.

As described above, the second game after the first game medal is paid out than the average rotation speed C from the state where the hopper motor H80 is stopped until the first game medal is paid out. Since the average rotation speed A until the medals are paid out is faster, the distance that the disc H50 rotates from the state where the hopper motor H80 is stopped until the first game medal is paid out and the first game If the distance that the disc H50 rotates from the time the medal is paid out to the time the second game medal is paid out is the same distance, the first game from the state where the hopper motor H80 is stopped. The time required for the medals to be paid out is longer than the time required for the second game medal to be paid out after the first game medal is paid out.

As shown in FIG. 121, in this example, after the final game medal (fifth game medal in the figure) is paid out as the game medal payout process, the disc H50 is set at a predetermined angle ( In the fifth embodiment, the engine is stopped by shifting in the rotation direction by the angle B) (the rotation distance becomes longer). With this configuration, the distance that the disc H50 rotates from the state where the hopper motor H80 is stopped until the first game medal is paid out is set to two after the first game medal is paid out. The distance that the disc H50 rotates before the eye game medal is paid out (the distance that the disc H50 rotates from the time the second game medal is paid out until the third game medal is paid out is the same distance, etc. ), And the time required from the state where the hopper motor H80 is stopped until the first game medal is paid out is the time required for the second game after the first game medal is paid out. The time required for the medals to be paid out can be approached (approximate), and by paying out the game medals at a good tempo, the player can proceed with the game without discomfort.

The width (angle B) of the deviation in the rotation direction when the disk H50 is stopped after the hopper motor H80 is driven depends on the period from the acceleration state to the constant speed state due to the drive of the hopper motor H80. In this period, the disc H50 is released after the hopper motor H80 is driven by considering the difference between the width of the hopper motor H80 rotating in the accelerated state and the width of the hopper motor H80 rotating in the constant speed state. It will be determined how much the rotation direction is shifted from the initial position to stop. The difference between the width of the hopper motor H80 rotating in the accelerated state and the width of the hopper motor H80 rotating in the constant speed state corresponds to the discharge position of the release urging means H70 from the position corresponding to the initial position of the release urging means H70 of the hopper motor H80. It is preferable that the angle B is sufficiently smaller than the angle A because it is sufficiently smaller than the width to the position where the rotation is performed. It should be noted that even if the angle B is deviated in the rotation direction, the detection of the game medal by the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s is not affected, and the timing chart of FIG. 120 shows. Based on this, the game medal is detected.

<< Effect >>
With this configuration, when a player who receives a game medal payout pays out a predetermined number of game medals, he / she can receive the game medal payout from the first card to the predetermined number of medals at substantially regular intervals. For example, by combining the configuration according to the fifth embodiment and the configuration according to the fourth embodiment, (1) game medals do not collide with each other, and (2) medal clogging due to collision between game medals does not occur. It can be configured and the game can proceed smoothly.

Further, after the final game medal is paid out, the disc H50 is configured to be displaced by a predetermined angle (angle B in the fifth embodiment) in the rotation direction to stop, so that the illegal device can be removed from the discharge port D240. It is possible to prevent a situation in which a game medal is illegally obtained by invading.

<<<<< 6th Embodiment Control when communication between the main control board and the sub control board is not possible >>>>>
Next, as a sixth embodiment, a process when communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S becomes impossible will be described. As a case where communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S becomes impossible, it is assumed that various commands set from the main control board M side to the sub control board S side cannot be transmitted. There is. In the game progress control process of FIG. 16, for example, in the game progress control process of FIG. 16, various commands related to the game are transmitted to the sub control board side based on the progress of the game, and as in step 1622 of FIG. In addition, as a process related to the subroutine, various commands are periodically sent from the main control board side to the sub control board side in a predetermined time (in this example, T is set, but for example, a time of about 2 ms is set). Is configured to send. The sub-control board S is configured to receive various commands transmitted from the main control board M and execute an effect based on the commands. The communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is one-way from the main control board side, and the sub control board S can receive commands from the main control board M, but the main control board side. It is configured so that it is not possible to send commands to. The game machine has a program related to execution processing on the main control board M and the sub control board S, respectively (a program possessed by the main control board M is referred to as a main side program, and a program possessed by the sub control board S is referred to as a sub side program). For example, the sub-control board S is configured with a sub-side program so as to execute an effect triggered by receiving a predetermined command from the main control board M. That is, in a situation where the command cannot be received from the main control board M, the sub control board S cannot execute the process configured in the sub-side program. When a situation may occur in which the sub-control board S cannot receive a command from the main control board M, for example, a member due to poor contact of a harness that electrically connects the main control board M and the sub-control board S. There may be a problem. However, even if communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S becomes impossible, it is possible to execute the main side program of the main control board M that controls the progress of the game. The game itself related to the main program can be executed even when communication with the sub control board S becomes impossible. Further, when communication is restored between the main control board M and the sub control board S from the situation where the main control board M and the sub control board S cannot communicate with each other, the progress of the program on the main side is changed. Based on this, a command related to processing after communication is restored is transmitted from the main control board side to the sub control board side, and the sub control board S is a command related to processing after communication received from the main control board M is restored. Performs processing based on. In the following, when communication with the sub-control board S becomes impossible while executing various commands on the main control board M using FIGS. 122 to 126, the main control board M and the sub An embodiment of the process performed on the control board S will be described as the sixth embodiment.

<<< 6th Embodiment When the processing command and channel are 1: 1 when the communication between the main control board and the sub control board is disconnected during the execution of the processing related to the settlement >>>
FIG. 122 shows the flow of processing in chronological order as an example of processing when communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S becomes impossible during the execution of the processing related to the settlement. First, it is assumed that the number of games is a predetermined number of games, starting from the N game, and processing is performed over the N + 1 games. Then, in the sixth embodiment, a command based on the progress of the game is transmitted to the sub-control board S as a process performed by the main control board M, and a command is received from the main control board M as a process performed by the sub-control board S. Executing the effect based on the command is one set of processing (in the sixth embodiment, the order is one). The sub-control board S does not execute the effect based on all the commands received from the main control board M, and may or may not execute the effect based on the received command. be. For example, in FIGS. 122 to 126, the sub-control board S executes an effect for each command transmitted by the main control board M as an example, but when the effect is executed based on the reception of each command. It is supplemented that there are cases where the production is not performed. When the settlement button is operated to execute the settlement of credits in the situation where one or more credits exist, the sound during settlement corresponding to the settlement of the game medal is output from the speaker S20 from the speaker S20. However, it is assumed that the audio channel that outputs the sound being settled is a channel corresponding only to the sound being settled. For example, the sub-control board S executes the effect based on the command received from the main control board M. In particular, when executing the process of outputting the sound from the speaker S20, the sub-control board S receives from the main control board M. The command is associated with the audio channel of the speaker S20. That is, the sound is output from the speaker S20 from the sound channel corresponding to the received command. The command and the audio channel do not have to have a one-to-one relationship. Specifically, a plurality of commands (for example, a command related to the start of settlement and a plurality of commands related to a predetermined error detection) may be associated with one voice channel. With this configuration, even if the number of commands related to audio output increases, it is possible to configure the audio output without increasing the number of channels.

<< Configuration 1 >>
FIG. 122 will be described in detail. First, as the processing order 1, the main control board M transmits a command based on the start of settlement to the sub control board S. The sub-control board S outputs the sound being settled from the speaker S20 based on the received command. In << 6th Embodiment, when the processing command and channel are 1: 1 when the communication between the main control board and the sub control board is disconnected during the execution of the processing related to the settlement >>, the sound that outputs the sound during the settlement is output. It is assumed that the channel supports only the command related to the start of settlement, and does not support other commands. Then, while the sub-control board S is outputting the sound being settled, the communication between the main control board M and the sub-control board S is disconnected. At this time, for example, as a case where communication is disconnected, electricity between the main control board M and the sub control board S, such as a poor connection of a harness or the like that electrically connects the main control board M and the sub control board S, etc. The case where the communication is disconnected is not limited to this. Any case may be used as long as the electrical communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is cut off.

First, as the processing order 1, when the winning combination (for example, the push order bell combination) in which the game medal is paid out in the Nth game wins and the game medal is paid out from the hopper H40, the main control board M is the hopper H40. The command related to the start of medal payout from is transmitted to the sub-control board S. The sub-control board S outputs a sound effect (hereinafter referred to as a medal payout sound) related to the payout of the game medal from the speaker S20 based on the reception of the command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40. In << 6th Embodiment, when the processing command and the channel are not one-to-one when the communication between the main control board and the sub control board is disconnected during the execution of the payout process >>, the audio channel that outputs the medal payout sound is It is assumed that not only the command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40 but also other commands are supported (here, it is referred to as "command related to start lever operation"). Then, while the sub-control board S is outputting the medal payout sound, the communication between the main control board M and the sub-control board S is disconnected. When the sub-control board S ends the output of the medal payout sound, the main control board M counts the number of game medals paid out related to the prize, and the number of game medals to be paid out by the prize is paid out from the hopper H40. By determining that the medals have been paid out, the command related to the end of paying out the game medals from the hopper H40 is transmitted to the sub-control board S, and the sub-control board S receives the command related to the end of paying out the medals from the hopper H40. It is configured to execute the process of ending the output of the medal payout sound.

In order 2, a command relating to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40 is transmitted to the sub-control board S, but since the communication between the main control board M and the sub-control board S is disconnected, the main control board M is the hopper H40. The command related to the end of medal payout from is not able to be transmitted to the sub-control board S. At this time, since the sub-control board S cannot receive the command related to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40 from the main control board M, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. It should be noted that the main control board M counts the number of game medals to be paid out related to the prize, and while the determination that the game medals are to be paid out from the hopper H40 to be paid out by the prize is completed, the main control board controls the progress of the game. The processing performed by the control board M is in progress.

The main control board M counts the number of game medals paid out related to the prize, and after it is determined that the number of game medals paid out from the hopper H40 to be paid out by the prize is completed, the main control board M and the sub-control The communication with the board S is restored. At this time, the sub-control board S has not received the command related to the end of medal payout from the main control board M, but the main control board M is paid out from the hopper H40 of the number of game medals to be paid out by the winning. Since it is determined that the game has been processed, the processing of the N game is completed, and the command related to the N + 1 game is set.

Next, as the N + 1 game, the process proceeds in order 3 and order 4. In order 3, the main control board M transmits a command related to the medal insertion reception to the sub control board S by determining that the game medal has been inserted from the medal insertion slot D170. The sub-control board S outputs a medal insertion sound corresponding to the medal insertion based on the reception of the command related to the medal insertion reception from the main control board M, while the main control board M finishes paying out the medals for the N game. Since the command related to the above cannot be received, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. The main control board M determines that the process related to the medal insertion acceptance has been completed, and sets the command related to the next process of the N + 1 game.

In order 4, the main control board M transmits a command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state to the sub control board S. The sub-control board S outputs a weight sound based on the reception of the command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state. As described above, here, the command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40 and the command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state are associated with the same channel of the speaker S20. That is, the sub-control board S receives the command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state in the N + 1 game while the output of the medal payout sound is being continued from the N game, thereby paying out the medal in the N game. It is configured to end the sound output and start the weight sound output in the N + 1 game.

<Effect 1>
With this configuration, for example, when the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is disconnected during the execution of the process accompanied by the sound output, the player can hear the voice. Since the output does not end, it is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine capable of recognizing that some problem has occurred in the gaming machine.

<Effect 2>
In addition, by associating with a plurality of commands such as commands related to the progress of the game, the communication between the two can be restored, and the user-friendly game can end the audio output while the game is in progress. Machines can be provided.

<<< 6th Embodiment When the processing command and channel are 1: 1 when the communication between the main control board and the sub control board is disconnected during the execution of the payout process >>>
<< Configuration 5 >>
Next, FIG. 126 will be described in detail. Here, in particular, from the state in which the game medals are paid out from the hopper H40 to a predetermined period (here, from the start of reel rotation (acceleration processing is performed)), the main control board M and the sub control board S The flow of processing when communication becomes impossible will be described. First, as the processing order 1, when the winning combination (for example, the push order bell combination) in which the game medal is paid out in the Nth game wins and the game medal is paid out from the hopper H40, the main control board M is the hopper H40. The command related to the start of medal payout from is transmitted to the sub-control board S. The sub-control board S outputs the medal payout sound from the speaker S20 based on the reception of the command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40. In << 6th Embodiment, when the processing command and the channel are one-to-one when the communication between the main control board and the sub control board is disconnected during the execution of the payout process >>, the audio channel that outputs the medal payout sound is Only the command related to the start of medal payout is supported, and other commands are not supported. Then, while the sub-control board S is outputting the medal payout sound, the communication between the main control board M and the sub-control board S is disconnected. When the sub-control board S ends the output of the medal payout sound, the main control board M counts the number of game medals paid out related to the prize, and the number of game medals to be paid out by the prize is paid out from the hopper H40. Upon determining that the medals have been paid out, the command related to the end of paying out the game medals from the hopper H40 is transmitted to the sub-control board S, and the sub-control board S receives the command related to the end of paying out the game medals from the hopper H40. Is configured to execute the process of ending the output of the medal payout sound.

In order 2, a command relating to the end of payout of game medals from the hopper H40 is transmitted to the sub-control board S, but since the communication between the main control board M and the sub-control board S is disconnected, the main control board M The command relating to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40 cannot be transmitted to the sub-control board S. At this time, since the sub-control board S cannot receive the command related to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40 from the main control board M, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. It should be noted that the main control board M counts the number of game medals to be paid out related to the prize, and while the determination that the game medals are to be paid out from the hopper H40 to be paid out by the prize is completed, the main control board controls the progress of the game. The processing performed by the control board M is in progress.

Next, as the N + 1 game, the process proceeds in order 3 to 10. In order 3, the main control board M transmits a command related to the medal insertion reception to the sub control board S by determining that the game medal has been inserted from the medal insertion slot D170, but the main control board M and the sub control board M Since the communication with S is disconnected, the main control board M cannot transmit the command related to the medal insertion reception to the sub control board S. At this time, since the sub control board S cannot receive the command related to the medal insertion reception from the main control board M, it cannot output the medal insertion sound corresponding to the medal insertion, but does not end the output of the medal payout sound. Continue to output the medal payout sound. That is, since the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is disconnected, the sub control board S cannot receive the command related to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40 and the command related to the acceptance of medal insertion. Therefore, the state of outputting only the medal payout sound continues.

In order 4, the main control board M transmits a command related to the start lever operation to the sub control board S by determining that the start lever D50 has been operated, but communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S. Is in a disconnected state, so that the main control board M cannot transmit a command related to the start lever operation to the sub control board S. At this time, since the sub control board S cannot receive the command related to the start lever operation from the main control board M, it cannot output the sound effect related to the start lever operation, but the medal is not output without ending the output of the medal payout sound. Continue to output the payout sound. That is, since the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is disconnected, the sub control board S can be used for commands related to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40, commands related to medal insertion reception, and start lever operation. Since the command cannot be received, the state of outputting only the medal payout sound continues.

In order 5, the main control board M transmits a command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state to the sub control board S, but since the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is disconnected, the main control board M is in a disconnected state. M cannot transmit a command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state to the sub-control board S. At this time, since the sub control board S cannot receive the command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state from the main control board M, it cannot output the weight sound, but the medal payout sound is not finished without ending the output of the medal payout sound. Continue to output. That is, since the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is disconnected, the sub control board S relates to a command related to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40, a command related to medal insertion reception, and a start lever operation. Since the command and the command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state cannot be received, the state of outputting only the medal payout sound continues.

After the main control board M determines that the reel rotation start standby state has started, the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is restored. At this time, the sub-control board S receives from the main control board M a command related to the end of medal payout from the hopper H40, a command related to the acceptance of medal insertion, a command related to the start lever operation, and a command related to the start of the reel rotation start standby state. Although not completed, the main control board M determines that the reels are ready to start rotating based on the start lever operation, and sets a command related to the next processing of the N + 1 game.

In order 6, the main control board M transmits a command related to the start of reel rotation to the sub control board S by determining that the reel rotation has started by operating the start lever. The sub-control board S outputs a sound effect related to the start of reel rotation based on the reception of the command related to the start of reel rotation from the main control board M, while the main control board M ends the medal payout from the hopper H40. Since such a command cannot be received, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. The main control board M determines that the process related to the start of reel rotation has been completed, and sets a command related to the next process of the N + 1 game.

As the order 7, it is assumed that the process related to the start of rotation of the reel is completed and the player can perform the reel stop operation. Upon determining that the stop operation of the first reel has been accepted, the main control board M transmits a command related to the reception of the stop operation of the first reel to the sub control board S. The sub-control board S outputs a sound effect related to the reception of the first reel stop operation based on the reception of the command related to the reception of the first reel stop operation from the main control board M, while the hopper H40 is output from the main control board M. Since the command related to the end of medal payout cannot be received from, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. The main control board M determines that the process related to the reception of the first reel stop operation has been completed, and sets the command related to the next process of the N + 1 game.

In order 8, the main control board M transmits a command related to the reception of the second reel stop operation to the sub control board S by determining that the stop operation of the second reel has been accepted. The sub-control board S outputs a sound effect related to the reception of the second reel stop operation based on the reception of the command related to the reception of the second reel stop operation from the main control board M, while the hopper H40 is output from the main control board M. Since the command related to the end of medal payout cannot be received from, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. The main control board M determines that the process related to the reception of the second reel stop operation has been completed, and sets the command related to the next process of the N + 1 game.

In order 9, the main control board M transmits a command related to the reception of the third reel stop operation to the sub control board S by determining that the stop operation of the third reel has been accepted. The sub-control board S outputs a sound effect related to the reception of the third reel stop operation based on the reception of the command related to the reception of the third reel stop operation from the main control board M, while the hopper H40 is output from the main control board M. Since the command related to the end of medal payout cannot be received from, the output of the medal payout sound is continued without ending the output of the medal payout sound. The main control board M determines that the process related to the reception of the third reel stop operation has been completed, and sets the command related to the next process of the N game. As the next process of the N + 1 game, a command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40 is used for a brief explanation, but during this period, the main control board M sends a command to the sub control board S as a command. For example, it is possible to configure the command to send a command related to the stop of the stop display symbol, a command related to winning a prize, or the like.

As the order 10, when the winning combination (for example, the push order bell combination) in which the game medal is paid out in the N + 1 game is determined and the game medal is paid out from the hopper H40, the main control board M is from the hopper H40. A command relating to the start of payout of game medals is transmitted to the sub-control board S. The sub-control board S outputs the medal payout sound from the speaker S20 based on the reception of the command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40. At this time, the medal payout sound output from the speaker S20 is output from the speaker S20 on the same channel as the medal payout sound output in the N game, as described above. That is, by transmitting a command related to the start of medal payout from the hopper H40 in the N + 1 game from the main control board M to the sub control board S, the sub control board S receives the hopper of the N + 1 game from the main control board M. Based on the command related to the start of medal payout from H40, the output of the medal payout sound is started, while the output of the medal payout sound related to the N game ends (as a process of the sub-control board S, the medal payout sound is related to the N game). Output of medal payout sound → Receive command related to start of medal payout from hopper H40 related to N + 1 game → End output of medal payout sound related to N game → Start output of medal payout sound related to N + 1 game Become).

<Effect 1>
With this configuration, for example, when the communication between the main control board M and the sub control board S is disconnected during the execution of the process accompanied by the sound output, the player can hear the voice. Since the output does not end, it is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine capable of recognizing that some problem has occurred in the gaming machine.

<Effect 2>
In addition, since the game is configured so that the game can proceed on the main control board M instead of stopping the game as an error, both players do not have to temporarily shut down the game machine due to an error response or the like. By returning the communication, it is possible to provide a user-friendly gaming machine capable of ending the audio output while advancing the game.

<< Configuration related to the number of units applicable to this example >>
Here, the configuration regarding the number of internal lottery that can be applied to this example will be described in detail below. It should be added that the following configuration is applicable to all the embodiments in this example.

First, with reference to FIG. 127, the configuration regarding the number of applications applicable to this example will be described in detail.

<When BB is not operating>
The gaming machine illustrated in FIG. 127 has a type 1 BB (sometimes referred to as BB) and a type 2 BB (sometimes referred to as MB), and has a role related to the type 1 BB (one type after winning). The combination of symbols in which the BB operates is a combination that can be stopped and displayed, and is sometimes referred to as a type 1 BB combination). It has "seed BB + cherry" (a condition device in which one type BB role and cherry are elected in duplicate). In addition, as a role related to the type 2 BB (a role that enables the combination of symbols in which the type 2 BB operates after being elected to be stopped and displayed, and is sometimes referred to as a type 2 BB role), "type 2 BB alone" (type 2 BB alone). It has a "conditional device in which the BB combination is independently won) and a "two-kind BB + cherry" (a conditional device in which the two-kind BB combination and the cherry are won in duplicate).

In addition, there are four types of winning roles (roles that have a combination of symbols for which game medals are paid out by stopping and displaying), bells, watermelons, symbols, and cherries, and the number of winning bells is the largest. (Winning at 10400/65536) may be referred to as the main small role.

“When BB is not operating” shown at the top of the figure is a table relating to the number of placements in a state where Type 1 BB and Type 2 BB are not operating (sometimes referred to as a normal gaming state or the like). The "number of inputs" is the number of inputs when it is assumed that the game is executed by betting three cards in order to calculate various expected values described later, and is specified during the operation of the 1st class BB and the 2nd class BB operation. The number is 2, but the "number of inputs" is 3. In addition, the "number of payouts" is the number of game medals to be paid out when the "number of inputs" is 3, for example, in a game when the type 1 BB is activated, 15 cards are paid out by betting two cards. Only will be won, but since the "number of inputs" is assumed to be 3, the "number of payouts" is also "15 x 3/2 = 22.5".

The “number of units” is a number of units determined by an internal lottery for each condition device, and the denominator is 65536. Further, the "probability" is the probability that the condition device is determined by the internal lottery.

The "number of games" is the number of games required when calculating various expected values described later. For "1st class BB alone", "1st class BB + cherry", "2nd class BB alone", and "2nd class BB + cherry", 1st class BB or 2nd class BB in the game that won the 1st class BB or 2nd class BB. The "number of games" is 1 because the case where the symbol combination according to the above is stopped and displayed is illustrated. In addition, in "1st class total", after winning "1st class BB alone" or "1st class BB + cherry", the 1st class BB is executed after the symbol combination in which the 1st class BB is to be activated is stopped and displayed (1st class BB). The "number of games" is 24 because the case of (digestion) is illustrated. In addition, "2 types total" executes 2 types BB after winning "2 types BB alone" or "2 types BB + cherry" and then displaying the stop display of the symbol combination in which the 2 types BB will operate (2 types BB). The "number of games" is 8 because the case of (digestion) is illustrated.

The "expected value of the number of inputs" is an expected value of the number of inputs per game in consideration of the probability determined by the internal lottery for each conditional device, and is calculated by "the number of inputs x the probability x the number of games". The "expected value of the number of payouts" is an expected value of the number of payouts per game considering the probability determined by the internal lottery for each conditional device, and is calculated by "number of payouts x probability x number of games". There is.

The configuration in the figure may be applied when the game is played as follows.

<Game method 1>
A game medal is paid out in a game in which a bell, watermelon, symbol, or cherry is won, which is a game method in which the game is executed by a game method that is most profitable for the player and is not a push order role such as a push order bell. The game is executed in a stop operation mode (a stop button operation mode, a stop button pressing order, a stop button operation timing, etc.) in which a certain symbol combination is stopped and displayed (winning). In addition, in a game in which a push order combination such as a push order bell (not shown in the figure, but may be configured to have a push order combination) is won, the stop operation mode is the largest number of payouts. To run the game.

<Game method 2>
In a game in which a bell, watermelon, symbol, or cherry is won, which is not a push order role such as a push order bell, a stop operation mode (stop button operation mode) is used to stop and display (win) a combination of symbols for which game medals are paid out. The game is executed in the order of pressing the stop button, the operation timing of the stop button, etc.). In addition, in a game in which a push order role such as a push order bell (not shown in the figure, but may be configured to have a push order role) is won, the game is random regardless of whether or not the push order navigation is executed. The game is executed in various stop operation modes (the order in which the stop buttons are pressed and the timing of the stop button operations are random). Random means, for example, that all six types of pressing orders are selected at an equal ratio for the pressing order of the stop button, and all 20 frames of stopping operation timing are selected at an equal ratio for the stopping timing. It is to be.

"Inside" is a game after winning any of "1st class BB alone", "1st class BB + cherry", "2nd class BB alone", and "2nd class BB + cherry", and 1st class BB. Or, a game in which the symbol combination in which the 2nd class BB is activated and the symbol combination related to the bell, watermelon, symbol, cherry, and replay are not stopped and displayed (in the situation where the winning of the 1st class BB or the 2nd class BB is carried over). It is a game that did not win a small role or a replay). In the figure, at 290/65536, a game in which the winning of the 1st class BB or the 2nd class BB is carried over and the small role or the replay is not won is executed, and the "expected value of the number of inputs" is about 0. It is .013275146, and the "expected value of the number of payouts" is 0.

<Type 1 BB is in operation>
“During type 1 BB operation” shown in the second row from the upper part of the figure is a table relating to the number of units in the state where type 1 BB is operating. During the operation of Type 1 BB, the specified number is two, and it is configured to win any of bell, watermelon, symbol, and cherry without winning the loss. In addition, the "number of payouts" is 15 for all of the bells, watermelons, symbols, and cherries, making it the easiest to win (easily determine) the bell. In addition, one or more (or all) of the "numbers" that will win the watermelon, the symbol, and the cherry may be configured to be the same as "when the BB is not operating". As described above, in the game in which the type 1 BB is operating, 15 cards are paid out by betting 2 cards in all games. The "number of payouts") of "1 type total" in "" is 22.5.

<Type 2 BB is in operation>
“During type 2 BB operation” shown at the bottom of the figure is a table relating to the number of units in the state where type 2 BB is operating. While the 2nd class BB is operating, the specified number is 2, and when the game is executed in a predetermined stop operation mode (for example, when the game is executed in the pressing order of "left → middle → right"). , Only the symbol combination related to the bell is configured to stop and display. In addition, the "number of payouts" is 15 when the symbol combination related to the bell is stopped and displayed. As described above, in the games in which the two types of BB are operating, 15 cards are paid out by betting two cards in all games, so the expected value of the number of payouts when the specified number of cards is three ("When BB is not operating"). The "number of payouts") of "total of two types" in "" is 22.5.

<BB is not operating>
Again, "when BB is not operating" will be described in detail. "No replay" indicates four types of winning roles of bell, watermelon, symbol, and cherry, and "including replay" means five types of roles of bell, watermelon, symbol, cherry, and replay. Shown. The "winning OUT" in "no replay" is the sum of the expected number of payouts of bells, watermelons, symbols, and cherries, which is about 1.237258911. In addition, the "winning ball payout rate" in "no replay" is the "total value of the expected number of payouts (winning OUT)" and the "total value of the expected number of bells, watermelons, symbols, and cherries". It is the value obtained by multiplying the divided value by 100, that is, the payout rate including the winning combinations, which is about 222.8%.

The "winning OUT" in the "replay included" is the sum of the expected number of payouts of the bell, watermelon, symbol, cherry, and replay, which is about 1.649246216. In addition, even if the symbol combination related to the re-game is stopped and displayed, the game medal is not actually paid out, but when the game is executed by betting three cards and the symbol combination related to the re-game is stopped and displayed, the symbol combination is stopped and displayed. Since the automatic betting for 3 cards is executed, the "number of payouts" related to the re-game is 3. In addition, the "winning payout rate" in "including replay" is the sum of the "expected number of payouts (winning OUT)" and the "expected number of bells, watermelons, symbols, cherries, and replays". It is a value obtained by dividing the value by "value" and multiplying it by 100, that is, the total payout rate of the winning combination and the replay, which is about 170.5%.

The "1 type total calculation ball rate" is a value obtained by dividing the expected payout number of the "1 type total" by the expected input number value and multiplying by 100, which is 750.0%. Further, the "two-kind calculation ball rate" is a value obtained by dividing the expected payout number of the "two-kind sum" by the expected number of inputs and multiplying by 100, which is 750.0%.

<Comparison of various values>
Here, when the above-mentioned values are compared, the relationship is as follows.
(1) "Expected value of payout number" of "2 types total"<"Expected value of payout number" of "No replay" (winning OUT)
(2) "Expected value of payout number" of "total of 2 types"<Expected value of payout number of "including replay" (winning OUT)
(3) Expected number of payouts for "total of 2 types"<Expected number of payouts for main small role
(4) "Expected value of input number" of "Internal medium"<Expected value of input number of main small role
(5) "Expected value of input number" of "Internal"<"Expected value of input number" of "Replay"

In addition, when the 2nd class BB is activated, the number of game medals that the player can obtain is smaller than when the 1st class BB is activated, and the 1st class BB is not won during the 2nd class BB operation. Therefore, there is a concern that the player's expectation for the game will be diminished. Therefore, as described in (1) above, by designing so that the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the "total of the two types" <the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the total of "no replay", the type 2 BB is in operation. The "expected value of the number of payouts" of the small role can be made higher than that, and even when the type 2 BB is operating, the BB is not operating (the bonus is not operating) but the BB is not operating (the bonus is not operating). This makes it easier for the player to feel, and makes it possible for the player to play the game without being aware that he / she is in a special state.

In addition, when the 2nd class BB is activated, the number of game medals that the player can obtain is smaller than when the 1st class BB is activated, and the 1st class BB is not won during the 2nd class BB operation. Therefore, there is a concern that the player's expectation for the game will be diminished. Therefore, as described in (2) above, by designing so that the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the "total of the two types" <the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the total of "including replay", the type 2 BB is in operation. The "expected value of the number of payouts" of the small role can be made higher than that, and even when the 2nd class BB is operating, the BB is not operating (the bonus is not operating) but the BB is not operating (the bonus is not operating). This makes it easier for the player to feel, and makes it possible for the player to play the game without being aware that he / she is in a special state.

In addition, when the 2nd class BB is activated, the number of game medals that the player can obtain is smaller than when the 1st class BB is activated, and the 1st class BB is not won during the 2nd class BB operation. Therefore, there is a concern that the player's expectation for the game will be diminished. Therefore, as described in (3) above, by designing so that the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the "total of the two types" <the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the main small role, the main size is smaller than that during the operation of the type 2 BB. It is possible to increase the "expected value of the number of payouts" of the role, and even when the two types of BB are operating, it is not the operation of the BB (the operation of the bonus) but the non-operation of the BB (the non-operation of the bonus). It becomes easier for the player to feel, and the player can play the game without being aware that he / she is in a special state.

As a gaming machine having one or more configurations of the above (1) to (3), the specified number is set to 2 and the average number of payouts per game is set to 2 while the 2 types of BB are in operation. It may be configured to lower the ball ejection rate (the ball output rate calculated for the two types) during the operation of the type 2 BB. With such a configuration, the effect of having the configurations (1) to (3) described above will be further enhanced.
