Description

  The present invention relates to a ball game machine that includes a variable display device that variably displays identification information, and that can generate a specific gaming state when a display result of the identification information is a predetermined specific display result.

  Conventionally, in general, a variable display device provided in a ball game machine variably displays a symbol on a plurality of variable display units, and when the display result of each variable display unit becomes a predetermined jackpot symbol (specific display result) A specific gaming state was generated. In addition, a variable display device that performs such symbol display is proposed that once a predetermined re-variation symbol (re-variation identification information) is stopped and displayed, the symbol is re-variable as a predetermined condition is satisfied. It had been.

  Further, even if the re-variation symbol is repeatedly displayed and re-variation is repeated, the re-variation is simply performed a plurality of times and lacks in interest.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and the object of the present invention is to set the big hit reliability higher than before when the number of repeated re-variations becomes the maximum number of times. It is an object of the present invention to provide a ball game machine capable of increasing the player's expectation for the repetition of the above.

Specific examples of means for solving the problems and their effects

  (1) In a ball game machine that includes a variable display device that variably displays identification information, and that can generate a specific gaming state when a display result of the identification information is a predetermined specific display result, Among them, a plurality of re-variation control means for re-changing the identification information by displaying the predetermined re-variation identification information in a temporarily stopped state, and a plurality of re-variation times for re-changing the identification information are set. Re-variation frequency selection means for selecting the number of fluctuations, and when the re-variation frequency selection means selects the most re-variation frequency among the re-variation times, compared to when another re-variation frequency is selected The probability of the specific display result is set high.

  According to such a configuration, when the re-change of the identification information performed in association with the stop display of the re-change identification information is repeated up to a predetermined maximum number of times, the probability (big hit reliability) of the specific display result is obtained up to that time. Therefore, it is possible to increase the player's expectation for repeated re-variation, and thus to enhance the interest of the game.

(2) The probability that the specific display result is obtained each time the number of re-variations increases is set high.

The normal variable winning ball apparatus 4 is provided with a starting ball detector 7 for detecting a hit ball that has won a prize. Even when the movable wing pieces 6a and 6b are in the vertical (normal winning opening) position, it is possible to win the normal variable winning ball apparatus 4. Further, the variation of the special symbol based on the winning to the normal variable winning ball apparatus 4 is stored a predetermined number of times (in this embodiment, four times) except during the variation, and this is displayed by a special symbol memory display LED 53 described later. It has come to be.

  In addition, an ordinary variable display device 8 is disposed on the left side of the special variable display device 40. The normal variable display device 8 includes a ball passing port 9 at the upper end thereof, and is provided below the ball passing port 9 by detecting a passing ball by a passing ball detector 10 provided in the ball passing port 9. Variations in identification information (hereinafter referred to as normal symbols) on the normal symbol display 11 are allowed. The normal symbol display 11 controls the opening of the movable wing pieces 6a and 6b of the normal variable winning ball apparatus 4 until a predetermined time elapses when the normal symbol becomes a winning symbol, which will be described later. When a probability fluctuation (a gaming state in which the jackpot determination probability is changed to a probability different from the normal time) occurs, the opening time is set to be long. Further, the variation of the normal symbol is stored a predetermined number of times (in this embodiment, four times) except during the variation, and this is displayed by the normal symbol storage display LED 12 provided in the normal variable display device 8. It has become. A ball passage port member 13 having the same outer shape as that of the normal variable display device 8 is disposed on the right side of the special variable display device 40. The ball passage port member 13 has a normal symbol storage display LED 12 disposed therein. The decoration LED 14 is provided at a portion corresponding to the position of the LED.

  Further, a special variable winning ball apparatus 15 attached to the game board 1 via a substantially arc-shaped attachment board 16 along the guide rail 2 is disposed below the game area 3. A special variable winning opening 17 is opened at the center of the special variable winning ball apparatus 15, and the special variable winning opening 17 is controlled to be opened and closed by the movement of an opening / closing plate 19 by a solenoid 18. The inside of the special variable winning award 17 is divided into two parts on the left and right sides, the left side of which is a specific area, and the right side is a normal area. The specific area is provided with a specific ball detector 20 that can open the opening / closing plate 19 again by detecting a winning ball. In addition, a winning ball detector 21 is also provided in the normal area to detect winning balls. A decorative LED 22 is provided on the rear wall in the special variable prize winning opening 17.

Note that a ball passage 30 whose front is covered with an arc-shaped covering member 29 is formed between the winning prize openings 25 and 26.

  Thus, the special variable winning ball apparatus 15 configured as described above operates as follows. That is, when the hit ball wins the normal variable winning ball device 4 and the starting ball detector 7 is turned on, the special variable display device 40 starts to change, and when a certain time elapses, for example, in order of left, right, and middle. When the special symbol is confirmed, and the combination of the confirmed symbols becomes the jackpot symbol (specific display result), the specific gaming state is entered. In this specific gaming state, the opening / closing plate 19 of the special variable winning ball apparatus 15 is opened until a predetermined period (for example, 29 seconds) or a predetermined number (for example, 10) of winning balls are generated (opening cycle). The ball hitting the surface of the game board 1 is received while it is open. Then, when the hit ball received in the specific area and the specific ball detector 20 is turned ON, the above opening cycle is repeated again after the end of the opening cycle, and a continuation right is established each time the winning ball wins in the specific area. The opening cycle can be repeated up to 16 times.

[2] A first state that makes it easy to win a hitting ball by intervening detection of a hitting ball in a specific winning or passing area, and the hitting ball cannot win or is difficult to win. Control to change the first state continuously or intermittently for a predetermined time with respect to the variable winning ball apparatus that can be changed to the second state [3] A predetermined number of prize balls are directly discharged regardless of the winning of the hit ball [4] Control for adding a valuable number to a valuable storage medium (card, receipt, etc.) [5] A point is given to a ball game machine that can be played based on the presence of a score Control Next, the configuration of the special variable display device 40 constituting the main part of the present embodiment will be described. And explain. The special variable display device 40 has a mounting board 41 attached to the surface of the game board 1, and the mounting board 41 has a drum cover having rectangular window openings opened at three places, left, middle and right. A member 42a is provided, and a transparent drum lens 42b that covers each window opening integrally from the rear is provided. Further, behind the drum lens 42b, rotary drums 43a, 44a, and 45a having special symbols drawn on the outer periphery are arranged to constitute left, middle, and right special symbol display portions 43 to 45, respectively. . Each of the special symbol display units 43 to 45 stops and displays the upper, middle, and lower three symbols. The rotation drums 43a, 44a, and 45a are controlled to rotate by drum motors 43b, 44b, and 45b (see FIG. 5), respectively, and drum sensors 43c, 44c, and 45c (see FIG. 5) to detect stop symbols. Is provided. Furthermore, a left drum lamp 43d, a middle drum lamp 44d, and a right drum lamp 45d (see FIG. 5) for illuminating and decorating special symbols are attached to the rotary drums 43a, 44a, and 45a, respectively. The drum lamps 43d, 44d, and 45d are connected to a drum lamp circuit 69, which will be described later, so that their blinking and lighting operations are controlled.

  Also, above the special symbol display portions 43 to 45, there are a winning opening 46, a seven-segment type decorative symbol display 47 that performs variable display of decorative symbols, a center lamp 48, and decorative LEDs 49 to 52. Is provided. On the other hand, below the special symbol display units 43 to 45, a special symbol storage display LED 53 for storing the undigested portion of the special variable display device 40 and a center lamp 54 are provided. Note that the maximum number of special variable display devices 40 that can store the undigested portion is four, and therefore, four special symbol storage display LEDs 53 are also provided.

  Next, the special symbols displayed by the rotary drums 43a, 44a, and 45a of the special symbol display units 43 to 45 will be described. Each symbol row (left symbol, middle symbol, right symbol) of the rotating drums 43a, 44a, 45a has 10 types of "1 to 10" hit symbols and eight "coins" as shown in FIG. 2 and two “R” symbols, which vary along an arrangement pattern in a predetermined order as shown in FIG. Random 2 is provided corresponding to these left, middle and right symbols. As shown in FIG. 3 (B), the jackpot symbol combination includes an upper horizontal line 1 (corresponding to numeral 1 with a circle in the drawing), a middle horizontal line 2 (corresponding to numeral 2 with a circle in the drawing), and a lower horizontal line 3 (drawing). The same hit pattern is present in any of the five hit lines of the circled number 3), the lower right diagonal line 4 (corresponding to the circled number 4), and the lower left diagonal line 5 (corresponding to the circled number 5). It is a complete combination. The type and arrangement of jackpot symbols are determined based on random 3 (0 to 49) extracted values, as shown in FIG. In addition, symbols that have a probability variation of any one of “1, 2, 3, 4, 5” in the jackpot symbol constitute a probability variation jackpot symbol so that a probability fluctuation (also called probability variation) occurs. It has become. The “R” symbol is basically a losing symbol, but the losing symbol “R, R, R” aligned on the hit line constitutes a replay symbol and will be described later with the display. The replay variation is performed.

  In addition, when a big hit is made with a probabilistic big hit symbol, the probability of hitting the special symbol and the normal symbol is changed. Specifically, a probability variation big hit symbol in which any one of probability variation symbols “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, and “5” is arranged in each special symbol display unit 43 to 45 of the special variable display device 40 is derived. Then, the probability variation control is executed based on this. The specific control of the probability fluctuation is triggered by the end of the specific gaming state (actuation of the condition device) by the probability variation pattern, and then the probability is changed with a high probability. Then, when the next specific gaming state occurs, this is used as a trigger. Return the hit probability to the normal probability. Then, by repeating the variation of the hit probability again with the end and occurrence of such a specific gaming state as a trigger (in particular, not related to the end time and occurrence time but related to the occurrence or end of the specific gaming state) Probability control is performed twice. Further, in such a probability variation control, when a major hit is again made with a probability variation symbol during the probability variation, the probability variation control is newly performed twice after the major hit.

  The configuration of the gaming board 1 of the pachinko gaming machine including the special variable display device 40 has been described above, but these gaming devices are controlled by the game control circuit shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 are circuit diagrams showing the game control circuit in a block configuration, which are controlled by the main and sub basic circuits 60a and 60b including the MPU, ROM, RAM, and input / output circuits. As shown in FIG. 4, the basic circuit 60 a detects detection signals from the start ball detector 7, the passing ball detector 10, the specific ball detector 20, and the winning ball detector 21 via the switch input circuit 61. And a chip select signal is applied from the address decoding circuit 62 to the basic circuit 60a. When the power is turned on, a reset signal is supplied from the initial reset circuit 63 to the basic circuit 60a, and a clock reset signal is supplied from the clock reset pulse circuit 64 to each of the basic circuits 60a and 60b.

  On the other hand, the basic circuit 60a gives control signals to the following devices and circuits. That is, the number indicator 23, the number indicator 24, the special symbol memory display LED 53, the decorative symbol indicator 47, the normal symbol indicator 11, the normal symbol memory indicator LED 12, and each ornament via the 7-segment LED / LED lamp circuit 65 Control signals are given to the LEDs 14, 22, 27, 49 to 52, and control signals are sent to the solenoids 5 and 18, the windmill lamp 31, the center lamps 48 and 54, and the attacker lamp 28 via the lamp / solenoid / information output circuit 66. Then, a sound signal is given to the speaker 35 via the sound circuit 67. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, a drive signal is given from the basic circuit 60a to the drum motors 43b, 44b, and 45b via the sub basic circuit 60b and the motor drive circuit 68, and the sub basic circuit 60b and the drum lamp circuit 69 are supplied. A control signal is given to each of the drum lamps 43d, 44d, and 45d via. The stop symbol detection signals from the drum sensors 43c, 44c, and 45c are input to the basic circuits 60a and 60b via the sensor input circuit 70. A card reader input / output circuit 71 is connected to the basic circuit 60a, and a prize ball number signal, a prize ball number signal common, a hit signal, and a hit signal common are connected to the outside via the card reader input / output circuit 71. Input / output between them. The lamp / solenoid / information output circuit 66 outputs information such as jackpot information and effective start information and lamp control data to the outside. In addition, the above devices and circuits are supplied with electric power having various voltages from a power supply circuit 72 to which an AC power supply 72a and a fuse 72b are connected.

  Next, the special symbol changing operation by the special variable display device 40 will be described. First, the random number used for the changing operation of the special variable display device 40 will be described. In the special variable display device 40, seven types of random numbers as shown in FIG. 6 are used, and these random numbers are random numbers 1 (0 to 249) for jackpot determination, and all symbols other than the jackpot are displayed. Random 2 (0-19 for each left, middle, and right symbol row), random 3 (0-49) for jackpot symbol arrangement, random 6 (0-19) for reach operation, The random number 7 (0, 1) for variation, the random number 8 (0 to 49) for temporary stop display, and the random number 9 (0 to 19) for replay variation are configured. Random numbers 1, 3, and 7 to 9 are random numbers that are incremented by 1 every 0.002 seconds, and random numbers 2 and 6 are incremented by 1 every 0.002 seconds and interrupted. This is a random number that is varied by adding 1 to the remaining processing time.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 7A, when the value extracted from random 1 is “3”, it is determined as big hit, and the big hit symbol and arrangement are determined by random 3, and each special variable display device 40 It displays on the symbol display parts 43-45. On the other hand, when the value extracted from Random 1 is other than “3”, it is determined that the symbol is out, and the symbol based on the extracted value in Random 2 is out of symbol, and each special symbol display unit 43 to 45 of the special variable display device 40 is used. To display. When the value extracted at random 2 coincides with the big hit symbol by chance, 1 is added to the random 2 data for the middle symbol sequence to display it as an out symbol. When the probability changes (when the probability is high), the value of “3 · 7 · 79 · 103 · 107” in the random 1 is the random number for determining the big hit.

  Further, the specific fluctuation of the special symbol is as shown in the time charts of FIGS. Note that the variation of each of the left, middle, and right symbols is performed based on the variation pattern shown in FIG. The variation pattern A is a variation of acceleration → constant speed → deceleration, the variation pattern B is a constant variation (high-speed variation) of 20 mS per step, and the variation pattern C is a constant variation of 28 mS per step. (Low speed fluctuation). First, in FIG. 8, when a hit ball is won in the normal variable winning ball apparatus 4 and the starting ball detector 7 (described as starting port winning in the figure) is turned on to derive a starting signal, the starting signal is obtained. At the time of rising, a random number is extracted from random numbers 1 and 3 and stored. The extraction times of such random numbers 1 and 3 are the same even when the start memory is used. Thereafter, when a very short time (0.132 seconds) has elapsed since the start signal is derived, the stored random 1 value is read to determine whether or not it is hit, and at the same time, random 2 is extracted. At this time, when the big hit is determined from the value of random 1, the stored random 3 is read. Thereafter, after 0.134 to 0.150 seconds from the derivation of the start signal, random 6 is extracted when reaching reaches with the extraction of random 1 and 2.

  Thereafter, when 0.190 seconds elapses after the start signal is derived, fluctuations of the left, middle, and right symbols are simultaneously started in the fluctuation pattern A. For the left symbol, when 6.300 seconds have elapsed from the start of the variation, the symbol one symbol before the stop symbol is set and varied in the variation pattern B for 0.160 seconds. For the right symbol, when 6.460 seconds have passed since the start of the fluctuation, 5 symbols before the stop symbol are set and the fluctuation pattern B is varied for 0.800 seconds. Such left and right symbol fluctuations are fluctuation patterns other than reach and reach 1 and 2, and the reach 3 and 4 will be described in detail later. In the left and right symbol variations, when the probability variation (high probability), the variation time of the variation pattern A is shortened to 2.160 seconds and 2.320 seconds, respectively.

  For the middle symbol that is the final stop symbol, as shown in FIG. 9, in the case other than the reach, when 7.260 seconds have elapsed from the start of fluctuation, 5 symbols before the stop symbol are set and 0.800 seconds. It fluctuates with fluctuation pattern B. For the middle symbol in reach 1, after the variation in variation pattern A, five symbols before the symbol in reach are set and varied in variation pattern B for 0.800 seconds. The variation pattern C is varied for 688 to 6.944 seconds (12 to 31 symbols). Further, for the middle symbol in reach 2, after the variation in variation pattern A, 5 symbols in front of the symbol in reach are set and varied in variation pattern B for 0.800 seconds. The variation pattern C is varied for 376 to 9.632 seconds (24 to 43 symbols). The reach 2 is exactly the same as the reach 1 while the variation pattern C varies for 20 symbols, but the sound effect and the lighting pattern of the decorative lamp / LED change after the variation for 20 symbols. In addition, in the variation of medium symbols other than the reach and in the reach 1 and 2, the change time of the change pattern A is shortened to 3.120 seconds at the time of probability change (high probability).

  In Reach 3, as shown in FIG. 10, 0.190 seconds after the start signal is derived, the left, middle and right symbol variations are started simultaneously with the variation pattern A. 6. When 300 seconds have elapsed, the fluctuation pattern B is changed for 0.800 seconds (for 5 symbols), and the fluctuation pattern C is changed for 5.376 to 8.960 seconds (for 24 to 40 symbols). For the right symbol in reach 3, the variation pattern A is performed for 8.988 seconds, and then the variation pattern B is varied for 0.800 seconds (for five symbols). Thus, at the end of the variation pattern B, the right symbol becomes the same symbol as the left symbol (the symbol “1” or symbol “2” is set), and thereafter, the variation symbol C is synchronized with the left symbol. 2. 68 to 6.272 seconds (12 to 28 symbols) In addition, the stop position which carries out a fluctuation stop by the fluctuation pattern C is every 4 symbols, and stops only when it changes 12 symbols, 16 symbols, 20 symbols, 24 symbols, 28 symbols. In addition, for the middle symbol in Reach 3, after changing pattern A for 11.676 to 15.260 seconds, 5 symbols before stop symbol are set and variable pattern B is set for 0.800 seconds (5 symbols). Min) Change. That is, in Reach 3, the left and right symbols are synchronized with low-speed fluctuation (variation pattern C) that allows the player to identify the display results, and the middle symbols vary with high-speed fluctuation (variation pattern B). To do. Then, the left and right symbols in the low speed fluctuation and the middle symbols in the high speed fluctuation are stopped simultaneously to derive the display result. As a result, when the display result is lost in reach 3, a reach lost symbol having the same left and right is derived. It should be noted that in the left, middle and right symbol variations in reach 3, the variation time of variation pattern A is 2.160 seconds, 4.848 seconds, 7.536-11. Reduced to 120 seconds.

  In Reach 4, as shown in FIG. 11, 0.190 seconds after the start signal is derived, the left, middle and right symbol variations are simultaneously started in the variation pattern A. 6. When 300 seconds have elapsed, the fluctuation pattern B is changed for 0.800 seconds (for 5 symbols), and thereafter, the fluctuation pattern C is changed for 8.064 to 11.648 seconds (for 36 to 52 symbols). For the right symbol in reach 4, the variation pattern A is performed for 8.988 seconds, and then the variation pattern B is varied for 0.800 seconds (for five symbols). Thus, at the end of the variation pattern B, the right symbol becomes the same symbol as the left symbol (the symbol “1” or symbol “2” is set), and thereafter, the variation symbol C is synchronized with the left symbol. 5. Change for 376 to 8.960 seconds (24 to 40 symbols). Further, for the middle symbol in reach 4, the fluctuation pattern A is changed for 11.676 seconds, and then the fluctuation pattern B is changed for 0.800 seconds (for five symbols). Thus, at the end of the variation pattern B, the middle symbol becomes the same symbol as the left and right symbols, and after that, the variation pattern C is synchronized with the left and right symbols for 2.688 to 6.272 seconds. Vary (12 to 28 symbols). In addition, the stop position where the fluctuation is stopped by the fluctuation pattern C is every 4 symbols, and after all symbols become synchronous fluctuation, it stops only when 12 symbols, 16 symbols, 20 symbols, 24 symbols, 28 symbols have changed. As described above, in reach 4, the left, middle, and right symbols are synchronously changed with a low speed change (variation pattern C) that allows the player to identify all the symbols of the display result immediately before the display result is derived. Then, by simultaneously stopping all the symbols that are changing at low speed, the big hit symbol is always derived from the display result. In the case of left, middle and right symbol fluctuations in reach 4, the fluctuation time of fluctuation pattern A is shortened to 2.160 seconds, 4.848 seconds and 7.536 seconds, respectively, at the time of probability fluctuation (high probability). Is done.

  By the way, in the reach variation described above, as can be seen from the time charts of FIGS. 10 and 11, the reach 4 performs the same variation pattern as the reach 3 (the left and right symbols are low-speed variations) halfway. . That is, reach 4 starts with the same variation pattern as reach 3, but adds a new variation pattern that is not performed in reach 3. This additional variation pattern is a development. In other words, the reach 4 is a reach type variation of the reach 3. In addition, in the above reach 1 and 2, when the display result is a big hit, the big hit with the non-probable symbol or the big hit with the probable variable symbol and the random 7 extraction value is “0”, at the end of each reach 1 and 2 A temporary winning symbol is once derived, and then re-variation is executed. In other words, at the end of reach 1 and 2, the temporary winning symbol (non-probable variable symbol) corresponding to the random 8 extracted value for temporary stop display is temporarily stopped, and after the re-variation, the random 3 extracted value for the big hit symbol array The final winning symbol corresponding to is derived. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 12, after the temporary winning symbol is derived, the left, middle, and right symbols are re-fluctuated in synchronization with each other. That is, the temporary stop is temporarily stopped for 960 ms from the derivation of the temporary winning symbol, and then reversely rotated with a fluctuation pattern of 120 ms (for 0.5 symbol, 30 ms / STEP). After the temporary stop for 960 ms again, 2040 to 5880 ms ( The final display result (hit symbol) is derived by varying the variation pattern of 8 + 0.5 to 24 + 0.5 symbols (stop position every 4 symbols), 30 ms / STEP).

  Next, the selection of the various reach 1 to 4 will be described with reference to the list of FIG. The various reach 1 to 4 are selected based on the reach selection table shown in FIG. Specifically, the reach selection table of FIG. 13A includes “big hit”, “losing (middle symbol is ± 1 symbol deviation with respect to the left and right symbols)”, “losing (middle symbol is ± 1 with respect to the left and right symbols). It is set by random 6 distribution for every “other than design deviation”. In the reach selection table, when the display result is a big hit, reach 1 is selected when the random 6 extraction value is any one of “0 to 4” (5 random numbers), and reach 2 is the random 6 extraction value. Is selected when “5-9” (5 random numbers) is selected, reach 3 is selected when the random 6 extracted value is “10-14” (5 random numbers), The reach 4 is selected when the extracted value of the random 6 is “15 to 19” (5 random numbers).

  Further, when the display result is a ± 1 pattern shift loss, reach 1 is selected when the random 6 extraction value is any of “0-4” (5 random numbers), and reach 2 is random 6 Is selected when the extracted value of “5-9” (5 random numbers) is selected, and reach 3 is selected when the extracted value of random 6 is “10-19” (10 random numbers). Selected, reach 4 is not selected. In the case where the display result is a loss other than ± 1 symbol shift, reach 1 is selected when the random 6 extraction value is any one of “0-14” (15 random numbers), and reach 2 is random. 6 is selected when the extracted value is “15 to 19” (5 random numbers), and reach 3 and reach 4 are not selected.

  Next, symbol replay fluctuation will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the presence / absence of replay variation and the number of repetitions (revariation number) are determined by the replay number selection table shown in FIG. Specifically, the replay frequency selection table in FIG. 13B is set by random 9 distribution for each “big hit” and “replay loss”. However, when the replay is lost, the loss is determined by random 1 extraction, and the replay symbol “R • R • R” is determined by random 2 extraction. The replay variation (revariation) is performed with the replay symbol of “R” once as a stop symbol, and finally “R, R, R” is derived as a lost symbol. In addition, as can be seen from the chart of FIG. 2, two “R” are set for each symbol row, but the replay symbol “R, R, R” at the time of big hit is a random 9 extraction. When the value is “0-4”, the smaller random “R” is selected, and when the random 9 extracted value is “5-9”, the larger random 2 value “R” is selected. Further, the array of replay symbols “R, R, R” for each replay variation (a hit line where “R” is aligned) is set to be the same as the array of display results. That is, when the replay is lost, the lost symbol “R, R, R” as a display result is displayed as the replay symbol for each replay variation in the same arrangement. On the other hand, in the case of a big hit, the lost symbols “R, R, R” aligned in the arrangement of the big hit symbols (the hit line where the winning symbols are aligned) as a display result are displayed as the replay symbols for each replay variation. Note that the arrangement of replay symbols is not limited to this. For example, the arrangement may be changed for each replay variation.

  In the above-mentioned replay frequency selection table, when a big hit is obtained, one replay variation is selected when the extracted value of random 9 is “0 · 1” (two random numbers), and the extracted value of random 9 Is 2 to 6 (5 random numbers), 2 replay fluctuations are selected, and the random 9 extraction value is 7 to 9 (3 random numbers) When three replay fluctuations are selected and the random 9 extraction value is any one of “10 to 19” (10 random numbers), the replay fluctuation is not selected. On the other hand, when the replay is lost, one replay variation is selected when the extraction value of random 9 is “0 to 15” (16 random numbers), and the extraction value of random 9 is “16 to 15”. 19 ”(4 random numbers), two replay fluctuations are selected, and three replay fluctuations and no replay fluctuations are not selected. Thus, the big hit reliability when the replay fluctuation is performed once is about 10%, the big hit reliability when the replay fluctuation is performed twice is about 50%, and the big hit reliability when the replay fluctuation is performed three times is 100%. Further, such a big hit reliability is displayed by the number indicator 23 and the number indicator 24. That is, during the first replay fluctuation period, each display unit 23/24 displays “10” to notify the 10% jackpot reliability. In addition, during the second replay fluctuation period, the display 23/24 displays “50” to notify the 50% jackpot reliability. Further, during the third replay fluctuation period, each display unit 23/24 displays “FF” to notify 100% jackpot reliability.

  Next, a specific display in the replay variation will be described with reference to FIG. First, when the replay symbol “R, R, R” is temporarily stopped (see FIG. 14B) from the symbol variation shown in FIG. 14A, the symbol replay variation as shown in FIG. 14C. Is done. In the replay frequency selection table of FIG. 13 (B), when the “big hit” replay variation is 1 time, as shown in FIG. 14 (D), after the replay variation, the reach symbol (in FIG. 14 (D)). Displays reach symbols arranged in “7”), and after performing the reach variation selected with the random 6 extraction from this state, the jackpot symbol shown in FIG. 14E is derived. However, in the case of reach 3 and 4, all symbols are stopped all at once and the jackpot symbol is derived without stopping and displaying the reach symbols. When the “big hit” replay variation is 2 or 3 times, the replay variation of FIG. 14B and FIG. 14C is repeated once or twice. After that, similarly to the case of one replay change, after the reach change (FIG. 14D), the big hit symbol is derived (FIG. 14E). On the other hand, when the replay variation of “replay loss” is 1 in the replay count selection table, the replay symbol “R, R, R” illustrated in FIG. 14F is lost after the replay variation illustrated in FIG. Derived as In addition, when the replay fluctuation of “out of replay” is two times, the replay fluctuation of FIG. 14 (B) and FIG. 14 (C) is repeated once, and then the lost symbol “R, R, R” is derived ( FIG. 14 (F)). It should be noted that in a temporary stop (temporary stop) due to replay fluctuations, the replay symbol may be in a completely stopped state, or may be in a state where slight fluctuations such as vertical shaking are performed. In addition, when a “big hit” is made in the replay variation, it is not always necessary to change the reach, and instead of reaching after the replay variation, the big hit symbol may be derived by stopping all symbols simultaneously.

  Further, in the case of “big hit”, only reach with a so-called big hit reliability of 100%, which appears only at the time of big hit, may be performed. By doing so, it can be shown that it is certain that it will be a big hit, and the big hit due to replay fluctuation can be emphasized. Further, it is desirable that the reach changes in synchronism with all symbols such as reach 4, and the reach that changes at a speed at which the player can visually recognize that the jackpot symbols are aligned is more effective.

  As described above, according to the configuration of the present embodiment, the special variable display device 40 is provided as a variable display device that variably displays the special symbol as identification information, and the display result of the special symbol is a predetermined jackpot symbol ( In a ball and ball game machine that can generate a specific game state when a specific display result is obtained, among the special symbols, the replay symbol “R, R, R” as predetermined re-variation identification information is in a temporarily stopped state. The symbol is re-variable (replay variation) by being displayed, and a plurality of re-variation times for re-variing the symbol are set (in the embodiment, replay variation is 1 to 3 times), and the largest number of re-variation times. When the number of re-variations (3 replay variations) is selected, the big hit reliability (probability of being a specific display result) is set higher than when other re-variations are selected. By configuring in this way, when the symbol re-variation performed with the stop display of the replay symbol is repeated up to a predetermined maximum number of times, the jackpot reliability is set higher than that at the time of re-variation so far, It is possible to increase the player's sense of expectation for repeated re-variation, and as a result, to improve the interest of the game.

  In addition, since the big hit reliability is set higher each time the number of re-variations increases, the player's expectation can be increased every time re-variation is repeated, and the game can be further improved.

  In addition, since the display devices 23 and 24 are provided as probability suggestion display means for displaying the display contents suggesting the big hit reliability with the change of the symbol, the big hit reliability changing according to the number of repetitions of the change again is provided. The player can be notified, and the player can easily recognize the change in the jackpot reliability.

  Next, modified examples 1 and 2 of replay fluctuation will be described with reference to FIGS. First, in Modification 1, symbol replay variation as shown in FIG. 15 is performed. First, once the replay symbol “R, R, R” is temporarily stopped (see FIG. 15B) from the symbol variation shown in FIG. 15A, the symbol replay variation as shown in FIG. 15C. Is done. When the “big hit” replay variation is 1 time, as shown in FIG. 15 (D), the reach symbols after the replay variation (in FIG. 15 (D), the reach symbols aligned with “7” are illustrated. ) Is displayed, and after reaching variation from this state, the big hit symbol shown in FIG. 15 (F) is derived. Further, when the “big hit” replay variation is two or three times, the replay variation of FIG. 15B and FIG. 15C is repeated once or twice. After that, as in the case of one replay change, the big hit symbol is derived after the reach change (FIG. 15D) is performed (FIG. 15F).

  On the other hand, if there is no reach variation when the replay variation is “replay loss”, the replay symbol “R, R, R” shown in FIG. 15E is lost after the replay variation shown in FIG. Derived as a symbol. In addition, when there is a reach variation when the replay variation is “replay loss”, the reach symbol is displayed after the replay variation shown in FIG. 15C (FIG. 15D), and the reach variation is performed from this state. Then, as shown in FIG. 15G, a reach lose symbol (in FIG. 15G, a reach lose symbol of “7, 5, 7” is illustrated) is derived. Further, when the replay fluctuation of “replay loss” is two times, the replay fluctuation of FIG. 15B and FIG. 15C is repeated once. When there is no reach fluctuation, the lost symbol “R, R, R” is derived as it is (FIG. 15E). On the other hand, when there is a reach variation, a reach loss symbol is derived after performing the reach variation (FIG. 15D) (FIG. 15G). However, when the reach fluctuation is reach 3 or 4, the reach symbols are not displayed in a stopped manner, but all symbols are stopped all at once and the big hit symbol or the reach lose symbol is derived. As described above, in the first modification, even when the largest number of re-variation times (replay variation 3 times) is selected from among the re-variation times, there is provided a case in which the deviation occurs after reach variation. As a result, there is a possibility that the player will be out of the game even when the replay variation is repeated a maximum number of times, so that the player can be kept nervous until the end.

  Next, in the second modification, the left, middle and right symbol types are set as shown in the list of FIG. That is, in FIG. 16, the left and right symbols are each composed of 10 types of winning symbols “1 to 10” and 10 losing symbols “coin”, and the middle symbols are 10 “10 to 10” symbols. It is composed of a winning symbol of type, eight losing symbols of “coin”, and two “R” symbols. The two “R” symbols constituting the middle symbol constitute a replay symbol, and the replay variation is performed on condition that the “R” symbol is stopped and displayed.

  The specific replay fluctuation is as shown in FIG. First, reach variation is performed from the symbol variation shown in FIG. 17 (A), and then, as shown in FIG. 17 (B), the replay symbol “R” is temporarily stopped on the middle symbol (in FIG. 17 (B), When the “5 · R · 5” reach lose symbol is exemplified), the symbol replay variation is performed as shown in FIG. When the “big hit” replay fluctuation is 1 time, as shown in FIG. 17D, the big hit symbol is derived after the replay fluctuation (in FIG. 17D, “6, 6. 6” is derived). Example of jackpot symbol of). In addition, when the “big hit” replay variation is two times, after performing the reach variation from the replay variation shown in FIG. 17C, the replay symbol “R” is displayed on the middle symbol as shown in FIG. Is temporarily stopped (in FIG. 17 (E), the reach loss symbol of “6 · R · 6” is exemplified) and replay fluctuation is performed again (see FIG. 17 (F)). Derived (see FIG. 17G). On the other hand, in the case of “disappearing replay”, reach variation is performed from the replay variation shown in FIG. 17C, and the replay symbol “R” is stopped as it is in the middle symbol, and a lost symbol is derived (FIG. 17E). )). As described above, in the second modified example, only the middle symbol is provided with the “R” symbol, which is used as the replay symbol, and when the replay symbol “R” is displayed, the replay variation is performed. Note that, in the replay variation of the modified example 2, all the symbols of the reach lose symbol in which the replay symbol “R” is stopped are re-variable in the middle symbol, but the reach symbol is displayed as it is and only the middle symbol is changed. It may be changed again. However, it is desirable to re-variate all symbols as in Modification 2 because it can be emphasized that replay variation. Further, it is desirable that when the re-change occurs, it is preferable that the reach pattern (left and right symbols) change is the replay change, but the post-change reach pattern is the same (for example, FIG. 17B → (C)). (→ (B) Fluctuation) In addition, the replay changes on the condition that the replay symbol is displayed from the reach state, but not limited to this, the replay is performed on the condition that the replay symbol is displayed on the middle symbol regardless of the presence or absence of the reach. It may be made to fluctuate.

  Further, the above-described embodiments (including the modified examples 1 and 2) do not limit the present invention, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention. For example, the number of repetitions of replay variation is three types, 1 to 3, but the number of repetitions and the type thereof are not particularly limited. In the embodiment, the combination “R, R, R” in which the “R” symbol is aligned on any of the five hit lines is used as the replay symbol. In the second modification, the “R” symbol is applied only to the middle symbol. Although it is provided and used as a replay symbol, the replay symbol is not limited to this. For example, an “R” symbol may be provided in each of the left, middle, and right symbol columns, and replay variation may be performed when the “R” symbol is displayed in any symbol column. In addition, when “R” symbols are provided in the left, middle, and right symbol rows, the first replay variation is performed on the condition that one “R” symbol is displayed, and the second replay is performed. Every time a replay change occurs, the change is made on the condition that two “R” symbols are displayed, and the third replay change is made on the condition that the “R” symbol is displayed on three symbols. Replay symbols may increase. Further, the replay fluctuation may be performed only when “R” symbols are arranged on a predetermined hit line (for example, a middle horizontal line) among the five hit lines. Further, the hit line is not limited to five lines, but may be any number of lines such as one line, three lines, or eight lines.

  When one symbol is set as the replay symbol, the replay symbol is not limited to the lost symbol, and may be a winning symbol. However, it is necessary to be able to recognize a winning symbol that is not another replay symbol. Also, the number of replay symbols is not limited to one, and may be two or more. For example, “R1”, “R2”, and “R3” symbols may be provided, and three types of replay symbols “R1, R1, R1,” “R2, R2, R2,” “R3, R3, and R3” may be set. In this case, the jackpot reliability is changed in the order of “R1, R1, R1” <“R2, R2, R2” <“R3, R3, R3”, and the jackpot reliability is displayed on the probability suggestion display means. You may make it do. In other words, a plurality of types of replay symbols as re-variation identification information are set, and the probability of a specific display result (big hit reliability) is set differently for each of the multiple types of replay symbols. Display by means. By configuring in this way, the jackpot reliability varies depending on the type of replay symbol, so it is possible to further increase the interest of the game, but the player has different jackpot reliability depending on the type of replay symbol It becomes easy to recognize. At this time, “R1, R1, R1” is displayed at the first stop, “R2, R2, R2” is displayed at the second stop, and “R3, R3, R3” is displayed at the third stop. By displaying, the big hit reliability may be increased for each replay variation. That is, a plurality of types of replay symbols as re-variation identification information are set, and a probability (big hit reliability) of a specific display result is set differently for each of the plurality of types of replay symbols. Replay symbols with high reliability are displayed. By configuring in this way, it is possible to visually appeal that the big hit reliability increases each time the number of re-variations (the number of repetitions of replay variation) increases, and further enhancement of interest can be brought about.

  In addition, the display of the symbols constituting the replay symbol or the symbol that becomes the replay symbol is not particularly limited, but a display that makes it easy for the player to recognize that the symbol is related to the replay symbol or is a replay symbol (for example, other deviations). It is desirable that the design, the pattern, the design, or the character for displaying the replay be drawn completely different from the design or the jackpot design). In such a case, the replay variation due to the replay design can be appealed. Moreover, there may be a case where the replay does not fluctuate when the replay symbol is displayed for the first time. Further, the replay frequency selection table for determining the presence / absence of replay fluctuation and the number of repetitions thereof is not limited to the random 9 distribution shown in FIG. In the replay frequency selection table, it is not always necessary to set the big hit reliability high every time the replay fluctuation frequency increases. For example, the big hit reliability may be increased so as to be 10%, 50%, and 100% in the order of 2 replay fluctuations, 1 replay fluctuation, and 3 replay fluctuations. Further, the numerical value of the jackpot reliability is not particularly limited. For example, although the highest reliability is 100%, it may be less than 100%. However, a sense of accomplishment can be enhanced by making a big hit when the final stage is reached. Further, the probability suggestion display means for displaying the jackpot reliability is not limited to the indicators 23 and 24. For example, a dedicated indicator for displaying the jackpot reliability may be provided, or the jackpot reliability may be displayed by using a display other than the indicators 23 and 24 (for example, a decorative symbol display 47). It may be. However, it is desirable to display the big hit reliability in the vicinity of the variable display device (the variable display portion of the symbol) that the player pays most attention to. Moreover, the display content of the jackpot reliability may be displayed as a number, or the number may be an approximate value. In addition, a plurality of lamps arranged in a row are provided, and the number of lamps to be turned on indicates the big hit reliability, or a variable display device that variably displays symbols is configured by an image display such as an LCD. The image may be switched to display the big hit reliability as a percentage.

  In the above-described embodiment, the special variable display device that changes the special symbol is configured by the rotating drum. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and CRT, LCD, LED, VFD, EL, plasma, etc. It is also possible to configure the display, roof type or belt type. Also, as a configuration of the ball game machine, the variation of the identification information on the variable display device is started in accordance with the detection of the winning ball of the starting ball detector, and a specific gaming state occurs when the identification information becomes a predetermined display result. In this example, a ball game machine (this is commonly referred to as the first type) that opens the variable winning ball device is illustrated, but the invention is not limited to this, and it is accompanied by detection of the winning ball of the starting ball detector. When the identification information on the variable display device starts to fluctuate, and the identification information reaches a predetermined display result, the right is generated, and in this state, the ball game machine in which the specific game state is generated when a hit ball is won in a specific area (This is commonly referred to as the third type). That is, a ball game machine equipped with a variable winning ball device that starts to change the identification information on the variable display device in accordance with the detection of the hit ball of the start ball detector and operates when the identification information has a predetermined display result. (For example, a general electric role that is commonly used) may be used. Further, the entire ball game machine is constituted by a display device such as an LCD display, that is, the ball ball game machine is displayed on the display in a pseudo manner with components such as “hit ball” and “variable winning ball device”. It is also possible to configure. In this case, the payout of prize balls may be substituted with a score or the like.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the condition for reaching fluctuation is established when the big hit and when the left and right symbols are aligned at the time of loss, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, reach operation with random numbers (such as when “7” is extracted from “0-9”) or game history (such as when the number of start of losing continues 10 times) regardless of the display result The presence or absence of may be determined. That is, the following conditions [1] to [7] and the like are listed as conditions for fluctuations in reach at the time of loss.

[1] When the symbols stop in the order of left, right, and middle, and the left and right symbols are the same symbol (including 5 and 8 hit lines)
[2] When the symbol stops in the order of left, right, and middle, and the middle right symbol is the same symbol (including 5 or 8 hit lines)
[3] When the reach operation is determined by random numbers (including the case where the finally stopped symbols do not match at all or the case where the reach is forcibly rewritten)
[4] When the reach operation is determined in the game history (for example, when the reach is not selected continuously for 10 rotations (design variation 10 times), the reach operation is forcibly performed at the next rotation (design variation))
[5] When “7 ・ 7” is a big hit in two designs, “7” stops on either side. [6] When the number of display units is four or more, the designs of at least two display units are the same. [7] When the number of display units is three or more, the symbols of at least two display units are not the same, but may constitute part of the jackpot symbol (almighty symbol or any symbol)
It should be noted that any one of [1] to [7] described above may be set as a setting element or may be arbitrarily combined.

  Further, the reach variation mode is not limited to the one described in the embodiment, and may be any as long as it is defined as follows.

“Reach variation mode”: Variation mode that can improve the expectation for the derivation (big hit) of the specific display result Specific reach variation modes include [1] to [5] shown below.

[1] The pattern on the left and right stops in the same way as normal loss (may be temporary stop), and the variation time is long only for the middle symbol (including those that temporarily stop or change the direction of variation)
[2] A mode in which only the left symbol is confirmed (may be a temporary stop), and the symbol rotates slowly (symbol variation) in the middle right symbol. [3] A mode in which all symbols are synchronized (symbol variation). (Including the mode where only the left and right symbols stop together, or the entire symbol stops without matching)
[4] A mode in which high-speed rotation (symbol fluctuation) is performed for a long time and stops suddenly (in this case, including a mode in which only the left and right symbols are stopped or all symbols are stopped without being aligned)
[5] The left and right symbols are temporarily stopped (for example, swinging up and down in the stopped state), and when they are a big hit from that state (may be lost), all the symbols are rotated synchronously. With respect to the conditions [1] and [2] and the reach variation mode [1] and [2], the stop order is left, right, and middle, and there are three or more display units, or the stop order is different from this. Varies depending on the configuration. In addition, the symbols that have been stopped before the final stop symbol are not limited to those that have been completely stopped (for example, those that are in a temporary stop state by swinging up and down, etc.) At the same time, the temporary stop may be terminated (completely stopped).

Further, the invention that can be grasped from the embodiment described above includes the following.
(1) Set a plurality of types of re-variation identification information, set different probabilities of specific display results for each of the plurality of types of re-variation identification information, and display the probabilities of specific display results on probability suggestion display means It is characterized by doing. By configuring in this way, the probability of a specific display result (big hit reliability) varies depending on the type of re-variation identification information, so that it is possible to further increase the interest of the game, and the player can still re-variate identification Different jackpot reliability can be easily recognized depending on the type of information.

  (2) A plurality of types of re-variation identification information are set, and the probabilities of specific display results are set differently for each of the plurality of types of re-variation identification information. High re-variation identification information is displayed. With this configuration, it is possible to visually appeal that the probability (big hit reliability) of a specific display result increases each time the number of re-variations increases, and further improvement of interest can be brought about.

  (3) When a specific display result is obtained after re-variation, reach variation that appears only when the display result becomes the specific display result is performed. By configuring in this way, it is possible to appeal that the specific display result (big hit) is certain, and the big hit due to re-variation can be emphasized.
