Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pachinko game machine which can make a player feel surprised and that he has made a gain by setting temporary display results to display results other than specific display results, and setting final display results after synchronous re-fluctuation to the specific display results. SOLUTION: After paused symbols determined according to selection tables 1-4 to show that a jackpot was lost are temporarily stopped, final display results (jackpot symbols) are obtained by synchronous re-fluctuation from that state. Thus, because the jackpot is given after the player is made to think that he has lost the jackpot, the player can be made to feel surprised and that he has made a gain, and the synchronous re-fluctuation can be made interesting. This constitution can also make it easier to identify the symbols subjected to synchronous re-fluctuation, by using as the temporarily stopped symbols the symbols showing that the jackpot is lost, and can make the player feel that he has the chance of winning the jackpot even after loosing it once.

Next, the changing operation of the special symbol by the special variable display device 40 will be described with reference to time charts and explanatory diagrams shown in FIGS. First, the random number used for the variable operation of the special variable display device 40 will be described. In the special variable display device 40, FIG.
Six types of random numbers as shown in (A) are used, and these random numbers are random ones for the jackpot determination.
(0 to 249), random 2 for displaying all symbols other than the big hit (0 to 11 for each of the left, middle, and right symbol columns), and random 3 for the big hit symbol array (0 to 11), Random 6 (0-19) for reach operation and Random 7 for re-variation
(0-19) and random 8 for temporary stop display (0-
8). Random 1, 3, 7, 8
Is a random number that is added and changed by 1 every 0.002 seconds, and random 2 and 6 are each added by 1 every 0.002 seconds and added by 1 to the remaining time of interrupt processing. Is a random number that fluctuates.

Then, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the value extracted from the random 1 is "3", it is determined that the hit is a big hit and the big hit symbol and arrangement are determined by the random 3, and the special variable display device 40 Are displayed on each of the special symbol display sections 43 to 45. On the other hand, when the value extracted from the random 1 is other than “3”, it is determined that the symbol is out of place, and the symbols based on the value extracted in the random 2 are taken out as symbols, and each of the special symbol display sections 43 to 45 of the special variable display device 40. To be displayed. Also, when the value extracted by random 2 coincides with the big hit symbol by chance, 1 is added to the random 2 data for the middle symbol row, and it is displayed as a missing symbol. In addition, at the time of probability fluctuation (at the time of high probability), “3.77.779.103” in random 1
The value of “107” is a random number for determining a big hit.

The specific fluctuation of the special symbol is as shown in the time charts of FIGS. In addition,
The fluctuation of each of the left, middle, and right symbol rows is performed based on the pattern shown in FIG. The fluctuation pattern A is a fluctuation of acceleration → constant speed → deceleration, the fluctuation pattern B is a constant fluctuation of 20 mS per step, the fluctuation pattern C is a constant fluctuation of 28 mS per step, and the fluctuation Pattern D is a fluctuation in which the normal rotation and the reverse rotation are repeated every 0.060 seconds (0.125 symbols). First, in FIG. 6, when a hit ball wins in the ordinary variable winning ball device 4 and the starting ball detector 7 (described as “starting port winning” in FIG. 6) is turned on to derive a starting signal, the starting signal is derived. At the time of rising, a random number is extracted from random 1 and 3, and these are stored. The timing of extracting the random numbers 1 and 3 is the same even when the start memory is used. Thereafter, when a very short time (0.132 seconds) elapses from the derivation of the start signal, the stored value of random 1 is read out to determine a hit or miss, and at the same time, random 2 is extracted. At this time, when a big hit is determined from the value of the random 1, the stored random 3 is read out, and the random 7.8 is extracted and stored. Then, from the derivation of the start signal, 0.1
After 34 to 0.150 seconds, if the reach becomes due to the extraction of random 1.2, random 6 is extracted. At this time, in the case of a big hit, the stored random 7.8 is read.

Thereafter, when 0.190 seconds elapse from the derivation of the start signal, the fluctuation of the left symbol is started in the fluctuation pattern A, and when 0.192 seconds elapse from the derivation of the start signal, the fluctuation of the middle symbol is detected in the fluctuation pattern A. (See FIG. 7), and when 0.194 seconds elapse from the derivation of the start signal, the fluctuation of the right symbol is started in the fluctuation pattern A. Then, when 6.300 seconds have elapsed from the start of the change, the left symbol is set one symbol before the stop symbol (a temporary stop symbol is set in the case of re-variation), and the variation pattern B is set for 0.160 seconds.
And then fluctuates in a fluctuation pattern D until the middle symbol stops. For the right symbol, when 6.460 seconds have elapsed since the start of the change, the symbol before the stop symbol is set to 5 symbols (in the case of re-change, the temporary stop symbol is set) and 0.
It fluctuates in the fluctuation pattern B for 800 seconds, and then fluctuates in the fluctuation pattern D until the middle symbol stops. In addition, in the above-described left and right symbol fluctuations, when the probability fluctuation (high probability), the fluctuation time of the fluctuation pattern A is 2.1.
60 seconds, reduced to 2.320 seconds.

As shown in FIG. 7, in the case of the middle symbol which is the final stop symbol, in a case other than the reach, when 7.260 seconds have elapsed from the start of the change, the symbol 5 symbols before the stop symbol is set. For 0.800 seconds. On the other hand, for the middle symbol in the reach 1, after the variation in the variation pattern A, five symbols before the reach symbol are set, and the variation is in the variation pattern B for 0.800 seconds. 688-5.152 seconds (12-23
It fluctuates with the fluctuation pattern C. Reach 2
For the middle pattern in, after the fluctuation in the fluctuation pattern A, set 5 patterns before the reaching pattern and set 0.8
Fluctuate with variation pattern B for 00 seconds, and then 5.37
It fluctuates in the fluctuation pattern C for 6 to 7.840 seconds (24 to 35 symbols). In addition, for the middle symbol in the reach 3, after the variation in the variation pattern A, five symbols before the reach symbol are set, and the variation is changed in the variation pattern B for 0.800 seconds. The symbol is temporarily stopped by varying the variation pattern C for 360 seconds (for 15 symbols). After that, once stop for 0.300 seconds,
A frame change is performed in which a symbol change for 0.400 seconds and a temporary stop for 0.300 seconds are alternately repeated within a range of 5 to 15 times. Note that, in the above-described medium symbol variation, when the probability varies (when the probability is high), the variation time of the variation pattern A is 3.
It is reduced to 120 seconds. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the symbols are temporarily stopped for 0.300 seconds after the stop of the change of all the symbols (after derivation of the temporarily stopped symbols), and thereafter, all the symbols are changed by the change pattern C to 2.688. 5.152 seconds (12 to
(23 symbols) Synchronously fluctuate to derive the final display result. That is, at the time of synchronous re-fluctuation, at least one round of the symbol makes it possible to further emphasize what symbols are aligned and whether the symbols are easily changed.

By the way, as described in the reach selection table shown in FIG.
The random number 6 is set for each of "big hit", "losing (± 1 design)" and "losing (other than ± 1 design)". Specifically, when the display result is a big hit and ±
In the case where one pattern shift is lost, the reach 1 is selected when the extracted value of the random 6 is any one of “18 · 19” (two random numbers), and the reach 2 is the extracted value of the random 6 Reach 3 is selected at any one of “12 to 17” (six random numbers), and the reach 3 has a random 6 extraction value of “0 to 1”.
1 "(12 random numbers).
In addition, when the display result is a loss other than ± 1 symbol deviation, the extracted value of the reach 1 in the random 1 is “10 to 19”.
Reach 2 is selected when the extracted value of random 6 is any of “3 to 9” (seven random numbers), and reach 3 is selected when random 6 is extracted. It is selected when the extracted value is any of “0 to 2” (three random numbers). Based on this, the jackpot reliability of the various reach 1 to 3 is in the order of low, middle and high, respectively, and the reach 3 is set to the super reach with the highest jackpot reliability. In addition, as can be seen from the distribution rate of random 6 to “losing (± 1 pattern)”, the reach 3 of the reach 3 is set to have the highest appearance rate as a regrettable loss of ± 1 pattern deviation. That is, the reach 3 is a super reach with the highest reliability, and a reach that is apt to be missed with ± 1 symbol misalignment. Thus, in this embodiment, in order to produce a big hit or not, various reach 1 to 1
The jackpot reliability is set differently for each of the three, and the previous stage of the jackpot determination is interesting.

Next, a process of determining whether or not to execute the symbol re-variation will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. FIG.
0, first, the jackpot is determined by extracting the random 1 and then the extracted value of the random 7 for re-variation is set to “0”.
9 ”is determined (S1). S1
If the extracted value of the random 7 is other than "0 to 9", the process returns to the main flow. On the other hand, at S1 random 7
If any of the extracted values is "0 to 9", the execution of the symbol re-variation is determined (S2), and the temporary stop symbol is determined based on the extracted value of the random 8 for temporary stop display (S3). Then, the process returns to the main flow.

In order to determine the temporary stop symbols in S3, the temporary stop symbol selection tables 1 to 4 shown in FIGS. 11A to 11D are used. Specifically, when the display result is a big hit symbol that is aligned with any of "7", "I", and "E", Table 1 is used, and the display result is "K" and "G".
Table 2 for big hits that match any of "C"
Is used, and when the display result is a big hit symbol which is aligned with any of "L", "H" and "D", the table 3 is used, and the big hit where the display result is aligned with any of "J", "F" and "B" is used. In the case of a symbol, the table 4 is used. Then, in each of the selection tables 1 to 4, the left, middle, and right symbols corresponding to the extracted value of the random 8 are selected as the temporary stop symbols. For example, when the display result is a big hit symbol of “7.7.7” and the extracted value of the random 7 is any of “0 to 9” and the symbol re-variation is determined, the temporary stop symbol is determined. The selection table 1 is used, and when the extracted value of the random 8 becomes “0”, the loss symbol “LCL” is selected as the temporary stop symbol in response to this. Note that FIG.
As can be seen from the selection tables 1 to 4 of (A) to (D), in the present embodiment, all the temporarily stopped symbols are set to reach-losing symbols. For this reason, once the losing symbol is temporarily displayed, a big hit symbol is derived from the state by the synchronous re-variation from this state, so that it is possible to give the player a surprised and obtained feeling, and the synchronous re-variation is interesting. Can be Further, in this configuration, by making the temporary stop symbol a reach-losing symbol, it is possible to make it easy to understand the symbol that re-synchronizes, and to make it seem that there is still a chance to hit the jackpot even if it comes off at the reach. . However, the temporary stop symbol is not necessarily limited to the reach-losing symbol, and may be a lost symbol other than the reach symbol.

Further, the above four selection tables 1
In the selection tables 1, 2, and 4, one of the three big hit symbols is set as a positive change symbol (the symbol indicated by * in FIG. 11), while in the selection table 3, three big hit symbols are set. All are set to probable patterns. In other words, when the vehicle temporarily stops at the temporary stop symbol in the selection tables 1, 2, and 4, the probable variable symbol is derived with a probability of 1/3 (probable inrush rate), while temporarily stopped at the temporary stop symbol in the selection table 3. In such a case, a probable variable design is always derived with a 100% probability. For this reason, the probability that the big hit symbol of the final display becomes a positively-variable symbol can be made different according to the type of the temporary stop symbol, so that the sense of expectation for the reach loss can be made different and the interest of the game can be improved. Further, in this configuration, by setting the probability-change inrush rate in the selection table 3 to 100%, it is possible to further increase the sense of expectation of re-synchronization due to reach loss.

Next, the operation of the special variable display device 40 after the change is completed will be described with reference to FIGS. First, in the case of a combination of big hit symbols as a result of the change, as shown in FIG. 12A, a big hit determination is performed 1.500 seconds after the stop of the change of the middle symbol. Then, after 6.000 seconds from the jackpot determination, the special variable winning opening 17 of the special variable winning ball device 15 is opened for 29.500 seconds,
When 2.000 seconds have elapsed since the opening of the special variable winning opening 17, the opening operation of the special variable winning opening 17 is repeated again. After that, when the opening operation of the special variable winning opening 17 is finished, if there is a start memory of the special symbol, FIG.
As shown in (B), 1 from the closing of the special variable winning opening 17
After 0.190 seconds, the symbol change starts. In this case, the stored random 1 value is read out and determined 10.132 seconds after the closing of the special variable winning opening 17, and
Random 2 is extracted. At this time, when the big hit is determined, the stored random 3 is read. On the other hand, in the case where there is a special symbol starting memory after the result of the variation is out of the combination of the symbols, as shown in FIG. 12C, when the variation of the middle symbol stops and 1.190 seconds elapse, The fluctuation of each of the left, middle, and right symbol columns is sequentially started. In this case, the value of the stored random 1 is read out and determined, and the random 2 is extracted, 1.132 seconds after the stop of the fluctuation of the middle symbol. At this time, when the big hit is determined, the stored random 3 is read.

Next, the ordinary symbols displayed on the ordinary symbol display 11 will be described. Normal pattern is Fig.13
As shown in (A), 6 of “0.1.1.3.7.9”
The display time of one symbol is 0.128 seconds.
The display is changed at a cycle (0.768 seconds). For these ordinary symbols, as shown in FIG.
Random 4 (3 to 13) for hit determination, which is incremented by 1 every 0.002 seconds, and normal symbol display, which is incremented by 1 every 0.002 seconds and incremented by 1 for the remaining interrupt processing time And random 5 (0 to 5).
Each random number of random 5 (0-5) is shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, the symbols are provided corresponding to the respective ordinary symbols of "0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9". Also, random 4 (3 ~
13) In the extraction of the random number from 13), FIG.
As shown in the figure, when the value of “3” is extracted and it is determined that a hit has occurred, the normal symbol display 11 displays “4” of five random data.
Is displayed, and the normal variable winning ball device 4 is opened for a predetermined time. On the other hand, random "4"
If values other than are extracted and judged to be out of order, random 5
The data is extracted, and the out-of-design corresponding to this value is displayed on the ordinary symbol display 11. In addition, when the value extracted at random 5 happens to be a symbol even though it is determined to be out of order at random 4, that is, the random 5 data is “4”.
In the case of, an out-of-order symbol of “9” corresponding to “5” of the five random data is displayed on the ordinary symbol display device 11. The determination of the extracted data from the random 4 is performed when the hit probability is normal, and when the probability is high, the value extracted from the random 4 is determined to be a hit with any one of “3 to 12”. On the other hand, other values of “13” are determined to be out of order.

Next, FIGS. 14 (B) to 14 (D) and FIGS.
A description will be given based on each time chart of FIG. First,
In FIG. 15 (B), when the passing ball detector 10 (in the figure, it is described as passing through a normal symbol gate) is turned on, the random number 4 is extracted and stored at the same time. afterwards,
Predetermined time (0.002 seconds) from ON of passing ball detector 10
, The stored random 4 is read and determined, and the random 5 is extracted. Then, 27.000 seconds after 0.004 seconds from the ON of the passing ball detector 10.
The symbol usually fluctuates for seconds. The fluctuation time of such a normal symbol (27.000 seconds) is at the time of low probability, and at the time of high probability, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is reduced to 5.000 seconds.

If there is a passing memory of the passing ball detector 10 after the ordinary symbol comes off due to the above fluctuation, as shown in FIG. 14B, 1.002 seconds after the stop of the ordinary symbol. The random number 4 stored later is read out and determined, and the random number 5 is extracted. Then, the fluctuation of the ordinary symbol is started 1.004 seconds after the stop of the ordinary symbol. On the other hand, when the ordinary symbol is hit at the time of low probability, as shown in FIG. 14C, the ordinary symbol is stopped and the ordinary variable winning prize ball device 4 (in FIG. ) Is released for 0.500 seconds, and 0.002 seconds after the normally variable winning prize ball device 4 is closed, the stored random 4 is read out and determined, and the random 5
Is extracted. If the passing ball detector 10 has a passing memory, the normal variable winning ball device 4 is closed 0.0
After 04 seconds, the fluctuation of the ordinary symbol starts again. In addition, when a normal symbol is hit at the time of high probability, FIG.
As shown in (D), the normal variable winning prize ball device 4 (described as a normal variable winning opening in the figure) was opened for 2.000 seconds and then closed for 4.000 seconds at the same time as the stop of the normal symbol. Thereafter, the normal variable winning ball device 4 is opened again for 2.000 seconds. If there is a passage memory of the passing ball detector 10, 0.0 is counted from the closing of the second ordinary variable winning prize ball device 4 for the second time.
After 02 seconds, the stored random 4 is read and determined, and the random 5 is extracted.
Two seconds later, the normal symbol starts to change again.

Next, the operation in which the probability of hitting the special symbol and the ordinary symbol fluctuates will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 15 (A), each of the special symbol display sections 43 to 43 of the special variable display device 40 (described as a condition device in FIG. 15).
When a probable variable pattern is drawn to any one of the symbols "B", "D", "E", "G", "H", and "L", the probabilistic control is executed based on the derived probable pattern. The specific control of the probability variation is to change the probability to a high probability upon the end of the specific game state (operation of the condition device) by the probable change symbol, and then, when the next specific game state occurs, Return the hit probability to the normal probability. Further, when the next specific game state occurs with the derivation of the probable change symbol, the same probable change control is executed again. On the other hand, when the specific game state occurs due to the non-probable change symbol, the probable change control is not executed. Note that the probability change control is not limited to the one described in the embodiment. For example,
A limiter may be provided (for example, up to four times in a row), and a two-time update type (the probability is changed twice in one big hit with a certain variable pattern, and if the big hit is made again in the positive pattern in the meantime, plus 2 times the remaining number of changes) It may be. In addition, the ratio of the probability variable symbol to the jackpot symbol (probability that the probability variation control occurs on the assumption of the jackpot) is set to one half, but is not limited to the ratio (probability).

As described above, the special variable display device 40 according to the present embodiment temporarily stops the reach-losing temporary stop symbol determined based on the selection tables 1 to 4 and then finally changes from this state by synchronous re-variation. A large display result (big hit symbol). For this reason, a big hit is made after the player once feels that the player has made a reach loss, so that the player can be surprised and obtained, and the synchronous re-variation can be interesting. Also, instead of simply rearranging at high speed fluctuations, it is a state in which the big hit symbols are aligned in a part other than the display unit when the temporary stop symbols are aligned. The symbols are arranged on the back side, and appear on the front side (display unit) in a state where the big hit symbols are aligned. This surprise is surprising for a player. further,
Since the losing is a big hit, unlike a normal hit such as a resurrection of a loser, the player can be given a feeling of gain. Further, in this configuration, by making the temporary stop symbol a reach-losing symbol, it is possible to make it easy to understand the symbol that re-synchronizes, and to make it seem that there is still a chance to hit the jackpot even if it comes off at the reach. .

In the selection tables 1, 2, and 4 among the four selection tables 1 to 4, the probability variation symbols are each reduced by 1/3.
Of the selection table 3
, The probable variable design is always derived with a 100% probability. For this reason, the probability that the big hit symbol of the final display becomes a positively-variable symbol can be made different according to the type of the temporary stop symbol, so that the sense of expectation for the reach loss can be made different and the interest of the game can be improved. Further, in this configuration, by setting the probability-change inrush rate in the selection table 3 to 100%, it is possible to further increase the sense of expectation of re-synchronization due to reach loss.

Next, other embodiments of the present invention will be described below as second and third embodiments. First, the left, middle, and right special symbols according to the second embodiment are, as shown in FIG.
Each of the left, middle, and right symbols is composed of random 2 (0 to 1).
5) is provided correspondingly. As shown in FIG. 17, the combination of the big hit symbols is a combination in which the same hit symbol is arranged in any one of the five hit lines of the upper horizontal line, the lower right diagonal line, the middle horizontal line, the lower left diagonal line, and the lower horizontal line. The type and arrangement of the jackpot symbols are
It is determined based on the random 3 extraction value. That is, in the second embodiment, the left, middle, and right special symbol display units 43 to 45 are provided.
, The upper, middle, and lower three symbols are simultaneously stopped and displayed. Also, as shown in FIG. 18 (B), among the big hit symbols, a big hit symbol which is aligned with any one of “A”, “C”, “D”, and “G” is a positive variation symbol. Six kinds of random numbers shown in FIG. 18 (A) are used for the change of the special symbol, and these random numbers are random 1 (0 to 249) for jackpot determination and all symbols other than the jackpot. Random 2 for display (0 to 1 for each left, middle and right symbol row)
5) and random 3 (0-39) for big hit symbol arrangement
And random 6 (0 to 19) for reach operation, random 7 (0 to 19) for re-variation, and random 8 (0 to 5) for temporary stop display. Random 1/3
• 7.8 is a random number that is added and fluctuated by 1 every 0.002 seconds.
Are random numbers that are added one by one every 0.002 seconds and added one by one to the remaining time of the interrupt processing.

In the second embodiment, the temporary stop symbols are determined by using the temporary stop symbol selection tables 1 to 10 shown in FIGS. 19 and 20. Is selected based on the random 3 extracted value, in other words, the type and arrangement of the big hit symbols corresponding to the extracted value. Note that random 3 is "3.16.23.
26 ", the symbol is not changed again.
For example, if the extracted value of random 3 is “0 • 2.4 • 20 • 2”
If the big hit symbol corresponding to this is determined as one of “2.24”, the selection table 1 in FIG.
Is selected. Then, in each of the selection tables 1 to 10, the left, middle, and right symbols (reach lost symbols) corresponding to the extracted values of the random 8 are selected as the temporary stop symbols. In addition, in the selection tables 1 to 10, the derivation rate (probable inrush rate) of the probable variable symbol is set variously. In particular,
As shown in FIG. 18B, “A”, “C”, “D”
Since one of the big hit symbols of “G” is a probability variation symbol, the extracted value of the random 3 corresponding to the probability variation symbol is as shown in FIG.
As can be seen from the list of FIG. 7 (A), “0 to 4 · 10
~ 19.30 ~ 34 ". Therefore, in the selection table 1 of FIG. 19A, “0.22.4202.22.2”
Of the six random numbers of "4", two random numbers of "0.4" are the probability variable symbols, so the probability of inrush entry rate is 33.3% ($ 2/6)
Becomes Similarly, 100% for selection table 2, 0% for selection table 3, 50% for selection table 4, 50% for selection table 5, and 100% for selection table 6.
%, 0% for selection table 7, 10 for selection table 8
0%, 0% for the selection table 9, and 50% for the selection table 10.

As described above, in the second embodiment, by providing ten types of temporary stop symbol selection tables, the relationship between the temporary stop symbol and the final display result (big hit symbol) is diversified, and further, the selection is made. By setting the probability change intrusion rate in the table variously, the sense of expectation for the reach loss can be made different depending on the design type of the reach loss. Note that the number of selection tables and the probability of inrush entry rate are not limited to those described in the embodiment.

Next, the configuration of the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In addition, the symbol setting (including the setting of the probable variable symbol) and the random number for symbol change of the third embodiment are the same as those of the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 21, eight types of selection tables for temporary stop symbols according to the third embodiment are set, as shown in FIG. Selection tables 1-8
Are 50% in selection table 1, 100% in selection table 2, 0% in selection table 3, 50% in selection table 4, 50% in selection table 5, and 50% in selection table 6.
Is 100%, the selection table 7 is 0%, and the selection table 8 is 100%, and the probability-change inrush rates in all the selection tables 1 to 8 are 53% (# 17/32).
As described above, in the third embodiment, when the temporary stop symbol is determined, in other words, when the symbol is changed again, the probable change symbol is derived with a probability of half or more. Also,
As shown in Table 1 of FIG. 21A, the temporary stop symbols need not be evenly selected. Rather, the reach of non-probable designs is less probable than the reach of probable designs, so the expectation of big hits is halved. It is possible to improve the interest of the game. For this reason, the player's expectation of the symbol re-change is further improved. In addition, in the selection tables 1 to 8, as can be seen from the list diagrams of FIGS. 21A to 21H, the temporary stop symbols are set to the one-design shift or the two-design shift reach loss, respectively. That is, in the third embodiment, the left, middle, and right special symbol display units 4
The upper, middle, and lower three symbols are simultaneously stopped and displayed at 3 to 45, and the temporary stop symbol is set as a one symbol shift or a two symbol shift reach loss, so that a special symbol display portion 44 at the center.
The symbols (one symbol shift or two symbol shift) that can constitute the big hit symbol are stopped and displayed. For this reason, it is possible to make the symbols that resynchronize fluctuate more easily, and it is a configuration that resynchronizes with a very regrettable loss, so it is possible to eliminate the unfortunate feeling for the regretful loss when resynchronized it can.

It is to be noted that the temporary stop symbol may not be a reach loss but may be a lost one, or may be one having a plurality of symbols. For example, “A”, “B”, “B” in the stop order of left, right, and middle, or “A”, “A”, “B”, “B” with four variable display units. In the first to third embodiments described above, the temporary stop symbols are completely stopped once, but may be slightly vibrated up and down in an aligned state without stopping. It is also possible to move to synchronous re-variation without completely stopping. Further, the display result after the synchronization re-fluctuation is not necessarily limited to the big hit and may be a loss. For example, it finally stops as a result of the temporary stop, or finally stops at another reach-losing symbol array different from the reach-losing at the time of the temporary stop. Further, the special variable display device for changing the special symbol is constituted by a rotating drum, but the present invention is not particularly limited to this, and the CRT, LCD, LED, VF
It is also possible to configure a display such as D, EL, or plasma, or a leaf type or a belt type. Further, as a configuration of the ball-and-ball game machine, the change 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 when the identification information has a predetermined display result, a specific game state occurs. A ball game machine (commonly referred to as a first type) which opens a variable winning ball device is illustrated as an example, but is not particularly limited thereto. And the variable display device starts changing the identification information. When the identification information has a predetermined display result, a right generation state is established. In this state, when a ball is hit in a specific area, a specific gaming state is generated. (This is commonly referred to as a third type). That is, a ball game machine equipped with a variable prize ball device that starts changing the identification information on the variable display device in response to the detection of a hit ball by the starting ball detector and operates when the identification information has a predetermined display result. (For example, commonly including general electric roles). In addition, the entire ball game machine is constituted by a display device such as an LCD display, that is, the components such as “hit ball” and “variable winning ball device” are displayed on the display device in a pseudo manner, so that the ball game machine is displayed. Can also be configured. In this case, the payout of the prize ball may be performed on behalf of a point or the like.

Further, in the embodiment, the special game state is the probability fluctuation control of the special symbol and the ordinary symbol. However, the present invention is not limited to this. If the game control which is advantageous to the player is set to the special game state, Good. For example, time reduction control or probability variation control for a special symbol or ordinary symbol, extension control of the opening period of an electric utility (for example, an ordinary variable prize ball device), or setting of a starting passage area for a special symbol or ordinary symbol. Additional control (for example, control to change the setting of a normal winning opening as a starting winning opening of a special symbol), increase control of the number of winning balls (for example,
Control for increasing the number of prize balls accompanying the winning from normal 13 to 15) or control for improving the passing rate to a predetermined area (for example, providing a ball regulating device upstream of the starting winning opening to control the ball) The control for improving the start winning rate by the operation of the device) can be set to a special game state. Further, when the present invention is applied to the third type, the control for improving the winning rate to a specific area is performed in the special game state. It may be. It goes without saying that a special game state can be set by combining the above game controls.
