Next, host CPU 241 is checked the member that is connected with the IDE bus.Afterwards, host CPU 241 provides being inserted into the visit of the memory cards 253 among the draw-in groove 253S via the IDE bus, and from memory cards 253, reads games and games system program subsequently.In this case, the data of configuration games and games system program are read through four bytes.Subsequently, host CPU 241 is according to the authentication procedure of storage in RAM 243, carries out authentication with inspection with confirm to carry out distort (B4) of the games that read and games system program.
After the normal completion of verification process, host CPU 241 writes and stores in RAM 243 as the games of authentication goals (by authentication) and games system program (B5).
Next, host CPU 241 provides being installed in the visit of the GAL 254 on the IC slot 254S, from GAL 254, reads the payment rate data are set, and in RAM 243, write and store the data (B6) that read subsequently.Afterwards, host CPU 241 is carried out the process operation (B7) of the national identification information of storage among the ROM 255 that reads out in cribbage-board 250.
As the result of the fact of having carried out above-mentioned verification process, whether normally host CPU 241 confirms program and data (B8).(B8, not), the abnormal signal that then comprises the id information that is used to indicate Coin-freed video game machine 10 is imported into strengthens the monitoring arrangement (not shown) if their are undesired.Strengthen monitoring arrangement and indicate unusual Coin-freed video game machine 10 based on abnormal signal; And near the employee that Coin-freed video game machine 10, waits for of indication carries out fault and solves process, and storage is such as when the unusual date and time of appearance and the exception history information (B18) this unusual position occurs.Afterwards, the loudspeaker 23 of Coin-freed video game machine 10 generates sound, and luminous component 20 is luminous subsequently, thus the broadcasting ERST.Afterwards, this routine in the completion mainboard 240.
On the other hand, under program and the normal situation of data (B8 is), the operation (B9) of sensor of in Coin-freed video game machine 10, comprising of sequential search etc. in order.Subsequently, determine whether all (B10) in proper working order such as sensors.(B10 not), carries out above-mentioned step B18 and B19, and accomplishes this routine subsequently under out of order situation such as at least one sensor.
On the other hand, under all normal situation such as all the sensors (B10 is), sequentially check the operation (B11) of all driving mechanisms subsequently.Subsequently, the operation that determines whether all driving mechanisms is normal (B12) all.(B12, not), above-mentioned step B18 and B19 are performed, and this routine is accomplished subsequently under the out of order situation of at least one driving mechanism.On the other hand, under all normal situation of all driving mechanisms (B12 is), sequentially check the operation (B13) of all electronic accessories subsequently.Subsequently, the operation that determines whether all electronic accessories is normal (B14) all.(B14 not), carries out above-mentioned step B18 and B19, and this routine is accomplished subsequently under the out of order situation of at least one electronic accessories.
On the other hand, under all normal situation of all electronic accessories (B14 is), the enabling signal of indicating them normally to start is exported to (not shown) (B15) such as strengthening monitoring arrangement.Subsequently, carry out basic game process (B16), and this routine is accomplished subsequently.To provide the detailed description of basic game process hereinafter.
(basic game process)
The process flow diagram of Figure 47 and Figure 48 shows the process flow diagram through the process operation stream in the basic game of the Coin-freed video game machine 10 of host CPU 241 execution of Coin-freed video game machine 10.The routine of Figure 47 and Figure 48 is played corresponding to unit.Suppose to have started Coin-freed video game machine 10 in advance, and on the other hand, the variable that adopts in the host CPU 241 on a side of game console 1 is with the predetermined value initialization, thus Coin-freed video game machine 10 normal runnings.
At first, confirm whether credit value remains the volume residual (S1) of the recreation coin that the player inserted.Particularly, the quantity of the credit value C of storage is read in RAM 243, and carries out the process operation based on the quantity of the credit value C that is read subsequently.In the quantity of credit value C be under the situation of " 0 " (S1, not), recreation can't begin, and therefore, and this routine is accomplished and is not carried out any process operation.On the other hand, in the quantity of credit value C (S1 is) under the situation of " 1 " or " more ", confirm that credit value keeps, and make this routine get back to S2 subsequently.
In step S2, determined whether to carry out the pressing operation of action button 11 (button of making a bet).Through (S2 not), is not provided with recreation condition (S3) under the situation of operating operation button 11 (button of making a bet) behind the predetermined amount of time.Particularly, based on the operation of action button 11 (button of making a bet), the quantity of the recreation coin that definite pay lines that is directed against in this recreation will be made a bet.At this moment; The operation signal that the fact of the operation through carrying out action button 11 (button of making a bet) is sent is received; And based on the number of times that receives operation signal, the quantity of making a bet relevant with pay lines is stored in the predetermined memory space of RAM 243.Subsequently, read the quantity of the credit value C in the predetermined memory space that is written to RAM 243.The total quantity of making a bet that deducts the above-mentioned amount bet that has been increased the quantity C that reads from credit value.Value after subtracting is stored in the predetermined memory space of RAM 243.
Afterwards, determine whether to have operated action button 11 (start button) (S4).(S4 not), repeatedly carries out S4, thereby establishes holding state, is operating as up to action button 11 and ends under the not operated situation of action button 11 (start button).Under the operated situation of action button 11 (start button) (S4 is), determine whether to begin public recreation (S5).
On the other hand, under the situation that action button 11 (button of making a bet) has been pressed in step S2 (S2 is), confirm the indication credit value quantity C value whether be equal to or greater than before recreation in the sum of making a bet.In other words, determine whether to begin through the pressing operation of action button 11 (button of making a bet) recreation.Particularly, when pressing operation button 11 (button of making a bet), read in the predetermined memory space that is written to RAM 243 credit value quantity C with before recreation in the relevant quantity of making a bet with pay lines.Based on the relation between credit value quantity C that reads and the amount bet, according to the quantity C of credit value whether be equal to or greater than indication before recreation in the value of the sum of making a bet carry out process operation.The value of indication credit value quantity C less than before (S 16, not), can't begin recreation, and therefore this routine is accomplished and do not carried out any process operation under the situation of the sum of making a bet in the recreation.
On the other hand, under the situation of the sum of before the value of confirming indication credit value quantity C is equal to or greater than, making a bet in the recreation (S16 is), from the value of the quantity C of indication credit value, deduct the value of the total quantity of making a bet in the recreation before the indication.Subsequently, the value after subtracting is stored in the predetermined storage space of RAM 23.Afterwards, confirm whether public recreation begins (S5).
Confirming that public recreation beginning label is set to " unlatching " (S7) under the situation that public recreation begins (S6 is).Particularly, the indication recreation beginning label data that are set to " unlatching " are written in the storage space of public recreation beginning label of RAM 243.On the other hand, confirming that (S6 not), carries out combination deterministic process (S8) under the situation that public recreation does not begin.
In the combination deterministic process, at first confirm along the combination of the symbol that stops of pay lines.Particularly, send the order that is used to make randomizer generation random number.Subsequently, extract the preset range of the random number that produces through randomizer.The random number of being extracted is stored in the predetermined memory space of RAM 243.Although in an embodiment, in the randomizer of the outside that is set at host CPU 241, produce random number, random number also can produce according to the computation process of host CPU 241, and need not to provide this randomizer.
Afterwards, read the table of random numbers that all is stored among the ROM 242 and be used to encourage triumph combination table to rewarding.The table of random numbers that is read and triumph combination table are stored in the predetermined memory space of RAM 243.Based on the above-mentioned table of random numbers, stop to show to each spool control.
Next, read the table of random numbers and triumph combination table in the predetermined memory space that all is stored in ROM 243.Along with the random number in the predetermined memory space that is written to RAM 243 is defined as parameter, the table of random numbers is by reference.Subsequently, confirm the combination of the symbol that stop relevant with pay lines.
When the combination of winning was determined, the triumph combination table was stored in the predetermined memory space of RAM 243.Read out in the random number and the triumph combination table that write in the predetermined storage space of RAM 243.Subsequently, based on random number and triumph combination table, confirm the symbol combination that stops that under halted state, showing.At this moment, the symbol that reads out among the ROM 242 storage through host CPU 241 table of arranging, and this symbol indumentum of arranging is stored in the storage space of being scheduled to of RAM 243 and by reference subsequently.Above-mentioned definite symbol data that stops to be stored in the predetermined storage space of RAM 243.Perhaps, use the above-mentioned table of random numbers, can confirm the symbol that stops to each spool.
When the combination of the symbol that stop relevant with above-mentioned pay lines was determined, whether the combination of relevant with pay lines really stop element was the combination of winning.In the combination of the stop element relevant with pay lines is to win under the situation of combination, activates indication and will encourage the mark to the award of a kind of combination of winning of indication, so that generate and the corresponding award of symbol combination as the triumph of the confirming combination on pay lines.Indication will encourage to the mark of award of activation be stored in the predetermined storage space of RAM 243.On the other hand, be another combination in the combination of the stop element relevant with pay lines, i.e. under the situation of failure combination, do not activate indication will encourage to the mark of award.
In the combination deterministic process of above-mentioned step S8, combination can be confirmed as the situation of the unit recreation of adopting scatter pay.Under the situation that adopts scatter pay, determine whether to establish the award of winning according to the quantity of the scatter pay of having arranged again.The symbol of the combination that can confirm according to definite process of step S8 according to configuration is counted the quantity of the scatter pay of having been arranged again.For example, use the Code Number of the determined combination of indication, can be with reference to coming the quantity of scatter pay is counted in the tables of data shown in Figure 42.
After having carried out above-mentioned combination deterministic process, the subroutine of the desired value table light emitting control process of the Figure 93 that describes hereinafter will be called and carry out (S18).Next, spool 30A, 30B, 30C, 30D and 30E rotation, thus in 7E, move a plurality of symbols 301 (S9) at a plurality of display window 7A.In step S9, the subroutine of the Figure 66 that describes hereinafter is called and carries out.Process operation in the rotation of the beginning spool shown in Figure 66 is performed, thereby selects conventional rotary mode or various special rotary mode, and carries out the spool Spin Control subsequently.Afterwards, wait for this routine, till having passed through the preset time section (S10).Subsequently, rotational automatic the stopping (S11) of spool 30A, 30B, 30C, 30D and 30E.In step S11, the subroutine of the Figure 67 that describes hereinafter is called and carries out.The process operation that stops spool shown in Figure 66 is performed, and stops control thereby carry out spool with normal stop mode or specific stop mode.According to the process operation of step S11, spool 30A, 30B, 30C, 30D and 30E will be stopped by automatic control, thereby form the combination of confirming according to the combination deterministic process of step S8.That is to say that according to the process operation of step S11, symbol is formed the combination of confirming according to the combination deterministic process of step S8 by arranging again.
Next, according to the combination deterministic process among the step S8, determine whether to establish the combination (S12) of winning.Particularly, this state of confirming to be based on the mark that the indication award relevant with the pay lines of in the predetermined memory space of RAM 243, storing will be given by prize carries out.(S12, not), the combination of confirming to win is not established, and this routine completion subsequently under the situation that the mark that the indication award will be given by prize is not activated.
On the other hand, to encourage under the situation about being activated (S12 is), confirm whether the triumph combination of establishing according to the combination deterministic process among the S8 is " blue 7 " to the mark of rewarding in indication.Particularly, in the combination of winning (S13 is) under the situation of " blue 7 ", payment is according to the recreation coin (S17) of the quantity of this combination of winning, and this routine finishes subsequently.
On the other hand, not under the situation of " blue 7 " that (S13 not), confirms that public recreation accomplishes mark and whether be set to ON (S14) in the combination of winning.Particularly, confirm whether the data of indicating public recreation completion mark to be set to ON are written in the public recreation completion marked region of RAM 243.Accomplish (S14 denys) under the situation that is not set to ON in public recreation, S14 carries out with being repeated, thereby establishes holding state.In addition, accomplish under the situation that mark is set to ON (S14 is), carry out free game process (S15) in public recreation.Subsequently, this routine is accomplished.
" award game process "
Figure 49 shows the award game process that will in the step S15 of Figure 48, call and carry out.Under the situation that five or more a plurality of award symbol have been arranged again, routine is moved to the award recreation from basic game after, begin the award recreation in basic game.This award recreation is through confirming the multiplying power of award symbol according to wheel disc selection process, also confirming to encourage the recreation of carrying out to player's award according to award when having carried out free game and determined multiplying power subsequently.
At first, CPU 71 is based on the quantity of the award symbol of having arranged again in the basic game, confirms the number of times (step S4911) that wheel disc is selected.For example, when in basic game, having arranged five award symbols again, the number of times that wheel disc is selected is confirmed as once; When six award symbols had been arranged again, number of times was confirmed as twice; When seven award symbols had been arranged again, number of times was confirmed as three times; When eight award symbols had been arranged again, number of times was confirmed as five times; When nine award symbols had been arranged again, number of times was confirmed as seven times; And when ten award symbols had been arranged again, number of times was confirmed as ten times.In this manner, the award symbol of in basic game, having arranged more again, the number of times that wheel disc is selected is just many more.
Next, CPU 71 carries out wheel disc selection process (step S4913).Confirm multiplying power according to this wheel disc selection process.For example, when a plurality of multiplying powers are 15,20,25,50,100,200,250,500 and 1000, confirm one of these multiplying powers according to wheel disc selection process.
In addition, in the process of step S4913, the image of upper image display panel 131 display simulation wheel disc plates, on this wheel disc plate, with circumferential arrange the indication a plurality of multiplying powers image.When wheel disc is selected when beginning, be the image that a plurality of multiplying powers are selected to indicate in the basis with image one by one, and the image that should select is subsequently shown by the pattern with illumination and is shown by the pattern with non-illumination.Show and non-illumination demonstration indicating a plurality of multiplying power image sequences ground to throw light on, thereby to confirm that through wheel disc multiplying power, the mode that illumination shows and non-illumination demonstration is rotated seemingly show.
The identical multiplying power that repeats can be included in the image of a plurality of multiplying powers of indication.For example, can comprise three low ranges 15 or 20, comprise two 25 or 30 multiplying powers, or comprise only multiplying power greater than these multiplying powers.Through doing like this, lower multiplying power can be defined as easily and won, and higher multiplying power can be defined as and is difficult to won.
In addition, when repeatedly having carried out wheel disc selection process, wheel disc is under an embargo and has won the image place of a multiplying power for stopping at indication.Through doing like this, can provide expection to the player and will win sensation than the expectation of high magnification.Under the situation that repeatedly comprises a plurality of identical multiplying powers, wheel disc is enabled to stopping to be the pictures different place of identical multiplying power.For example, in above-mentioned example, comprise three low ranges 15 (first multiplying power 15, second multiplying power 15 and the 3rd multiplying power 15).After the award deterministic process of winning for the first time won first multiplying power 15, deterministic process was rewarded in the triumph of carrying out except that this first multiplying power 15.That is to say.Rewarding deterministic process in triumph for the first time and win under the situation of first multiplying power 15, is to win to reward the target of deterministic process for multiplying power 15, the second multiplying powers 15 and the 3rd multiplying power 15.Therefore, even winning under the situation of multiplying power 15 (first multiplying power 15) in the deterministic process of triumph award for the first time, possibly also can appear at wins for the second time rewards the situation (winning second multiplying power 15 and the 3rd multiplying power 15) that deterministic process wins.
Next, the CPU 71 storages multiplying power (step S4915) definite according to the wheel disc selection process of step S4913.In addition, in the process of step S4915, the image of the multiplying power of confirming according to wheel disc selection process finally is shown as to be illuminated.Through doing like this, the player can enough visual identitys multiplying power definite according to wheel disc selection process.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to accomplish wheel disc selection process (step S4917).As stated, confirm the number of times that wheel disc is selected according to the process operation of step S4911, and carry out wheel disc selection process through determined quantity.The process operation of confirming in the process operation of step S4911, whether to have carried out the wheel disc selection process of predetermined quantity of step S4917.
Next, when confirming not accomplish wheel disc selection process in definite process of CPU 71 at step S4917 (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to above-mentioned step S4913.
When having carried out repeatedly wheel disc selection process, the multiplying power of in the operation of each selection process, confirming added with, and storage in the process operation of step S4915 subsequently adds and multiplying power.For example, when the number of times of selecting according to the definite wheel disc of the process operation of step S4911 was twice, the wheel disc selection process of step S4913 was repeated twice.The first time wheel disc selection process moderate multiplying factor be set to after 50; When wheel disc selection process moderate multiplying factor also is set to 50 in the second time; Add and 100 (50+50) be set in wheel disc selection process the multiplying power confirmed, and storage should be provided with in the process operation of step S4915.
When CPU in step S4917 71 confirms to have accomplished wheel disc selection process (being), the counter of indication free game quantity be initialised (step S4919).For example, the counter of indication free game quantity is set to 7.Through doing like this, can carry out 7 free game.
Next, CPU 71 uses five spool M3a to carry out free game (step S4921) to M3e.Subsequently, CPU 71 confirms to encourage the award to the player (step S4923) based on the result of free game.Particularly; When symbol arranged again and when under halted state, having shown the award symbol, being encouraged to the player as award through the numerical value that the quantity that above-mentioned possibility multiply by the award symbol that under halted state, shows obtains through having carried out after the free game.
For example, carrying out under the free game situation once, when under halted state, having shown four awards during symbols, be confirmed as 100 at above-mentioned example moderate multiplying factor (=50+50); And therefore, in the free game of this time, 4 * 100=400 is encouraged to the player as award.
Next, CPU 71 upgrades the counter (step S4925) of the quantity of indication free game.For example, the counter of the quantity of indication free game subtracts one.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have accomplished free game (step S4927).For example, CPU 71 confirms whether the value of the counter of indication free game quantity is set to zero.
Imperfect tense (deny) that CPU 71 determines whether to carry out triggering (step S4929) again according to the result of the free game of in step S4921, having carried out when CPU 71 confirms free game.Again trigger through carrying out wheel disc selection process once more and change multiplying power.For example, carrying out the condition that triggers again is in free game, under halted state, to have shown five or more a plurality of award symbol.That is to say that definite process of step S4929 is the process operation that determines whether in free game, under halted state, to have shown five or more a plurality of award symbols.
When confirming to have carried out (being) when triggering again in the definite process at step S4929, carry out wheel disc selection process (step S4931), multiplying power is changed (step S4933), and subsequently, the counter of the quantity of indication free game is updated (step S4935).

Overview according to the game machine of the 3rd embodiment is: supposition i.e. existing back (post-li-zhi) is disposed and is played up; Play up for six kinds that are chosen in hereinafter description at random; Data are provided present and moving symbol so that carry out picture (frame); The picture that makes it possible to carry out independently respectively independent spool is presented and reverse rotation; And speed control is provided to corresponding one in the spool.
In addition, start button is set, and does not have stop button on the whole.This is because, but exist only under the given game state the feasible game machine that activates stop button to some spools of existence although stop button is not activated to all spools.In addition, in the game machine according to embodiment, symbol is arranged and is confirmed randomly, and arranges to confirm to reward according to determined symbol subsequently, and determined symbol is arranged and is the symbol of arranging again.Therefore; At first through the selection process in the master control board, and subsequently according to confirming to win combination or failure combination the opportunity of player operation, the content of control is different from and is used for confirming that the spool stop position is so that the content with the control of selecting the discrepant game machine of result is not different.That is to say, be different from according to the game machine of embodiment and confirm the game machine that symbol is arranged the opportunity of operating according to the player after the inner marker of establishing given triumph combination.
Figure 65 shows the overview according to the game machine of the 3rd embodiment.Game machine according to the 3rd embodiment is to be used to carry out the game machine of confirming the unit recreation of award based on the symbol of arranging again; And comprise: display (for example above-mentioned display window 150); It has the viewing area; This viewing area be used for showing with many rolling wires (for example, above-mentioned five spool M3a to M3e) in each symbol that is associated; And controller (for example, above-mentioned CPU 71), it is used to the recreation of the unit of control, and the symbol that in this unit recreation, is associated with rolling wire is moved and in the viewing area, is arranged again subsequently, and said controller is programmed to carry out following process operation:
(1-1-1) definite at random symbol (for example above-mentioned step S8) of arranging again;
(1-1-2) in the viewing area, show the symbol that is associated with rolling wire, thereby move (for example following step S6613 and step S6617) by first pattern along rolling wire;
(1-1-3) stop with many rolling wires in the symbol that is associated of at least one rolling wire, and in the viewing area, show the symbol (for example following step S6727) that stops subsequently;
(1-1-4) according to triggering through established the promptly existing fact according to process operation (1-1-3) symbols displayed under halted state; Show and the symbol that is associated corresponding at least one rolling wire in the rolling wire of moving symbol, so that under second pattern different, move (for example following step S6719 and 6725) with first pattern; And
(1-1-5) stop automatically with many rolling wires in the symbol that is associated of at least one rolling wire, and the symbol definite (for example above-mentioned step S11 and following step S6727) of arranging again subsequently according to process operation (1-1-1).
Game machine according to the 3rd embodiment has display and controller.Display has the viewing area, and symbol is displayed on the viewing area.The result of the unit recreation of confirming in game machine, to carry out according to the symbol of arranging again.Unit recreation is such recreation: a circulation of this recreation is, confirms symbol, the begin symbol that will arrange the again symbol that moves and arrange again subsequently at random.
The viewing area of display is equivalent on the front of the casing of the spool of arranging to form with mode that can visual recognition the opening or the window of symbol.In addition, under situation such as video spool, this viewing area is equivalent to be configured to the display surface of display panel of the image of display video spool.
Preferred game machine has the start button that the player can operate.Received the fact that the indication player has operated the signal of start button based on controller, the definite at random symbol that will arrange again of preferred controller, and control the symbol display in the viewing area subsequently.
In addition, preferred many above-mentioned rolling wires are formed by the mode that is parallel to each other in the viewing area.For example, a spool that forms with cylinder form is corresponding to a rolling wire.The image (a so-called video spool) of a spool that forms with cylinder form in addition, is corresponding to a rolling wire.In this manner, according to the rolling wire in the game machine of the 3rd embodiment can is-symbol can be along its rolling wire that moves, can be the spool that is mechanically formed, or can be the spool that is shown as image.
In addition, preferably, first pattern is that symbol moves up in first party along the rolling wire that is associated with it at a predetermined velocity.Preferably, first pattern is the ordinary symbol Move Mode in the game machine.For example, preferably, first pattern is the symbol Move Mode (reference model) when under conventional game state, carrying out basic game.
Word " promptly existing " is meant after under halted state, having shown at least some symbols just at the state of confirming through visual identity to win before rewarding.Word " promptly existing " also refers to the state that mobile symbol will stop at last on rolling wire in the time can confirming to win award through visual identity.For example, be to show under the halted state under the situation of five predetermined symbols having five rolling wires and triumph condition, when the symbol that is associated with two rolling wires stops and showing four predetermined symbols by the state that stops subsequently, establish existing.In addition, even there are three rolling wires of moving symbol, also can establish promptly existing occasionally according to the triumph condition.Therefore, not only under many, situation that for example five rolling wires (for example spool) exist, establish promptly at present, and establish promptly existing once in a while at a time point that has stopped to three spools according to the triumph condition.
The first mode indicators Move Mode, time interval till the time interval, the number of times that temporarily stops, the time interval, direction, speed, acceleration degree, the up-to symbol when symbol moves once more till also can indicating symbol moving direction, speed, acceleration degree, up-to symbol and stopping to stop next time and finally stop etc.Especially, preferred first pattern is a reference model.That is to say, when carrying out the recreation of conventional unit, preferably by the first pattern displaying symbol.
Similarly, second pattern is the designated symbol Move Mode also, and can indicate symbol moving direction, speed, acceleration degree or stop etc.Second pattern is different from first pattern.If indicate symbol moving direction, speed, the acceleration degree of pattern and stop in any one is different, then establish this difference between these two kinds of patterns.For example, possibly there is the situation that the spool rotational speed is variant or sense of rotation is opposite.
The definite at random symbol that will arrange again of process operation (1-1-1).For example, generate random number, and subsequently through definite symbols such as selection processes.This process operation is the process operation of the symbol confirming to arrange again, and in this process operation, does not confirm the content played up.Therefore, in process operation (1-1-1), the only definite symbol that will arrange again, and the uncertain content of playing up.
Process operation (1-1-2) is in the viewing area, to show the symbol that is associated with rolling wire, thereby moves along rolling wire by first pattern.Symbol is associated with each bar in many rolling wires.For example, the symbol that is assigned to a spool is associated with this spool.Symbol of the same race can be associated with different rolling wires.For example, symbol " 7 " can be associated with first rolling wire (first spool) or second rolling wire (second spool).In addition, preferred a plurality of symbol is associated with each bar in the rolling wire with predetermined order.For example, a plurality of symbols that on a spool, distribute are arranged to being associated with this spool by predetermined order.Therefore, symbol moves by predetermined order along rolling wire.
Process operation (1-1-3) is, stop with many rolling wires in the symbol that is associated of at least one rolling wire, and in the viewing area, show the symbol that stops subsequently.The rolling wire of the symbol that stops can be at least one rolling wire.
Process operation (1-1-4) be according to process operation (1-1-3) when according under halted state symbols displayed established the promptly current process operation that carries out.Also exist according to process operation (1-1-3) and establish promptly existing situation.In this case, process operation (1-1-4) is not performed.Trigger by having established the promptly existing fact according to symbols displayed under halted state; The symbol that is associated with at least one rolling wire that symbol in the rolling wire still moves above that is displayed in the viewing area, thereby moves by second pattern different with first pattern.
Process operation (1-1-5) symbol move begin after, automatically stop element, and the symbol of arranging again at least one rolling wire in many rolling wires.Through the symbol unit of the completion recreation of arranging again.As stated, on the whole, the symbol of in process operation (1-1-1), confirming is stopped automatically and is arranged again, and need not operation of player.In addition; Even operate displaying symbol under halted state through the player; Also show this symbol, and stopped automatically, and need not operation of player for remaining rolling wire definite symbol in process operation (1-1-1) for some rolling wires in many rolling wires.
In this manner, in the game machine according to embodiment, on the whole, player's operation is not intervened; And therefore, definite at random symbol is arranged itself in process operation (1-1-1), and confirms to reward according to determined symbol subsequently, and the symbol of in process operation (1-1-1), confirming can be arranged again.
In unit recreation, establish promptly existing after, displaying symbol when first pattern is changed to second pattern, thus the prompting player focuses on his/her notice in the unit recreation that attracts player interest.
Established promptly existing after, displaying symbol when first pattern is changed to second pattern, thereby the symbol that the player can visual identity be moved.The player is had higher interest to established the symbol that obtains to have arranged again after the high likelihood of triumph award with indication shortly at present probably.Therefore, the player can watch the result of symbol, and his/her sight line is not removed from the symbol that the player has this higher interest.
In this manner, established under the promptly existing situation, moved as the second pattern generation symbol in supposition.Yet; As described in the hereinafter; In symbol action according to the operation of first to the 5th procedure for displaying; Confirm to have established promptly existing after, according to the operation program of preparing, through carry out still demonstration control from the programing change of the program (conventional spool rotation program) of first pattern at the symbol that moves.
As control procedure, in the quantity (quantity of spool) of rolling wire when being defined as N, when the quantity of the rolling wire that has stopped at symbol becomes N-n, confirm that with reference to promptly existing table confirms to have established promptly existing.This is promptly existing confirm the coordinate that table is-symbol is arranged and reward between the combination table that is mutually related.The pattern that stops at symbol is for (that is to say at random; Symbol does not always stop by the order that begins from the left side) situation under; Confirm that which symbol is still moving (which spool is still in rotation), extracts promptly existing definite table, and confirms according to the table that is extracted subsequently.
In addition, confirm the promptly current stage, use random number to come to select randomly the i.e. action at present on many rolling wires (a plurality of spool).That is to say, promptly current when having confirmed, use random number to come to be chosen in randomly the symbol action (with reference to the step S6725 among Figure 67) according to first to the 5th demonstration control procedure operation of hereinafter description.In this manner, carry out the process operation and definite i.e. process operation of existing action of confirming that at random symbol is arranged individually.Therefore, determining whether that carrying out promptly existing the action with the selection process of the combination of winning there are differences.In an embodiment, for i.e. action at present, established under the promptly existing situation definite, puppet is played up (so-called simulation) and is not existed, and if established so promptly showing, then select any i.e. action at present.
In addition, preferred process operation (1-1-4) comprises following process operation:
When (1-2-1) symbol that is associated of a rolling wire in each and many rolling wires stops,, determine whether to have established and promptly show (the step S6719 that for example, is described below) through symbols displayed under halted state;
(1-2-2) in the viewing area, show with many rolling wires in the symbol that is associated of the mobile rolling wire of symbol move (the step S6725 that for example, is described below and 6727) with second pattern; And

" spool rotation beginning process "
Figure 66 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the spool rotation beginning process of in the step S9 of above-mentioned Figure 47, calling and carrying out.
At first, CPU 71 determines whether spinning reel (step S6611) routinely.Can determine whether spinning reel routinely according to the result of the selection process of after generating random number, carrying out.
When CPU 71 confirms that spool rotates routinely (being), CPU 71 selects conventional rotary mode (step S6613).This routine rotation is equivalent to " first pattern ".On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms not have spool to rotate routinely (denying), CPU 71 selects special rotation mode (step S6615).
This special rotation mode comprises a plurality of patterns, and comprises that the 6th demonstration control procedure to the 12 that is described below shows control and treatment.In the process operation of step S6615, random number is generated, and from these process operations, selects a process operation as special rotary mode subsequently.The the 6th to the 12 shows that the control procedure operation comprises operation relevant with the rotation stopped process and the operation of being correlated with selection beginning process.For example, the 6th, eight, nine, ten and 11 show that the control procedure operation is and the relevant process operation of rotation stopped process.In addition, the 6th, seven and 12 show that the control procedure operation is and the relevant process operation of rotation beginning process.The 6th shows that control procedure is the process operation that comprises rotation beginning process and rotation stopped process.
Define all the elements that comprise the rotation beginning process and the special rotary mode of rotation stopped process according to the process operation of in step S6615, selecting special rotary mode.That is to say, when spool begins to rotate after in the process operation of step S4, having operated action button, can the unit of definition all required display modes in the recreation.Through doing like this, can the recreation of the unit of completion, and need not to carry out the display mode process operation midway of definition unit recreation, thereby can be fast executable unit's game process simply.
Next, CPU 71 carries out spool rotary course (step 6617) with selected pattern in step S6613 or step S6615, and accomplishes this subroutine subsequently.
" spool rotation stopped process "
Figure 67 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of in the step S11 of above-mentioned Figure 47, calling and carry out spool rotation stopped process.
At first, CPU 71 determines whether to stop routinely spool (step S6711).This deterministic process is to determine whether to generate random number at random, stop spool, and the result's that confirms subsequently to confirm at random process operation routinely through selection process.
When CPU 71 confirms that spool stops routinely (being), CPU 71 selects conventional stop mode (step S6713).This routine stop mode is equivalent to " first pattern ".On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms not have spool to stop routinely (denying), the step S6717 that CPU 71 moves to routine to be described below.
Next, CPU 71 has determined whether to establish the opportunity (step S6717) that stops spool.When CPU71 confirms not have to establish the opportunity that stops spool (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S6717.
(be) that CPU 71 determines whether to have established i.e. existing (step S6719) based on the symbol on the spool that has stopped when CPU 71 has confirmed to establish the opportunity that stops spool.When CPU 71 confirms not establish the opportunity that stops spool (denying), CPU 71 makes routine move to step S6727.Through doing like this, can stop spool with conventional stop mode or special stop mode.
As long as the symbol that has stopped is an ordinary symbol, just can only in step S6719, determine whether to have established promptly existing through the symbol that has stopped.According to the combination deterministic process of aforesaid step S8, confirmed predetermined triumph combination, thereby can through will along triumph line symbol of arranging and the symbol that forms the combination of winning compare determine whether to have established promptly existing.Therefore, as result relatively, when from the symbol that forms the combination of winning, not confirming a symbol, can confirm to have established promptly existing.
In contrast thereto, under the situation that adopts scatter pay, can determine whether to have established promptly at present through the quantity of the scatter pay in the symbol on the spool that has stopped being counted.Use the Code Number of the symbol on the spool stopped, through with reference to as shown in Figure 42 tables of data, can count the quantity of the scatter pay that under halted state, shown.As stated, under the situation that adopts scatter pay, determine whether to have established the award of winning according to the quantity of the scatter pay of having arranged again.That is to say,, can obtain to win and reward when the quantity of the scatter pay of having arranged again during greater than predetermined quantity (quantity of triumph scatter pay).In addition, can be from the quantity (quantity of the scatter pay that will stop) of the scatter pay that obtains definite combination according to definite process of step S8 will under halted state, show from now on.The Code Number of designated symbol be can use,, the quantity of the aforesaid scatter pay that has stopped and the quantity of the scatter pay that will stop to be obtained through with reference to the tables of data shown in Figure 42.In this manner, under the situation of the unit recreation of using scatter pay, can determine whether to have established promptly existing according to the quantity of the quantity of the scatter pay that has stopped and the scatter pay that will stop.
When CPU 71 confirms to have established is current (being), and CPU 71 determines whether to have selected above-mentioned conventional stop mode (step S6721).When CPU 71 confirms still non-selected conventional stop mode (denying), CPU 71 makes routine move to step S6727.Through doing like this, when having selected special stop mode, can forbid in the process operation of above-mentioned step S6723, whether carry out confirming of promptly playing up at present.Promptly play up at present and be included in the special stop mode of in the process operation of above-mentioned steps S6715, selecting, thereby, even in the confirming of step S6723, carry out under the situation about promptly playing up confirming at present, also can carry out and promptly play up self at present.
When CPU 71 confirms to have selected conventional stop mode (being), CPU 71 determines whether to carry out and promptly plays up (step S6723) at present.The result that can be based on the selection process of carrying out after the generation random number determines whether to carry out and promptly plays up at present.When CPU 71 confirms not carry out (denying) when promptly playing up at present, the step S6727 that CPU 71 moves to routine to be described below.
When CPU 71 confirms that execution is promptly played up at present (being), CPU 71 selects promptly render mode (step S6725) at present.This promptly shows render mode and is equivalent to " second pattern ".This promptly shows render mode and comprises a plurality of patterns, and comprises first to the first demonstration control procedure operation that will be described below.In the process operation of step S6725, random number is generated, and from these process operations, selects a process operation as promptly showing render mode through selection process subsequently.
Next, CPU 71 under preference pattern, carry out spool stop control (step S6727).Spool stops with the various patterns of in above-mentioned step S6713 or S6725, selecting.
Next, CPU 71 confirms whether spool stops (step S6729).When CPU 71 confirms not have spool to stop (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S6729.When CPU 71 confirms that spool has stopped (being), CPU 71 determines whether that all spools stop (step S6731).
When CPU 71 confirms that all spools do not stop (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to above-mentioned step S6717.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms that all spools have stopped (being), CPU 71 accomplishes this subroutine.
" first shows control procedure "
Figure 68 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the first demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6725 of Figure 67, select this subroutine, and in step S6727, call and carry out selected subroutine.
First shows that control procedure is and stops to control relevant process operation what establish next spool after promptly existing.That is to say; This control procedure be with when the relevant process operation of control that establish promptly current spool (hereinafter, be called as controlled target spool) through the stopping to control of at least one spool in a plurality of spools as next target that stops to control.
" first shows the overview of control procedure "
Establish promptly existing after, be recycled and reused for as the spool of controlled target that spool slowly moves, temporarily stopping and per subsequently action that one by one advanced picture in 0.5 second before the triumph line that has stopped the award symbol is positioned.
Show in the control procedure that first " triumph line " is meant each bar in horizontally extending three lines of higher level, middle rank and subordinate (referring to Figure 81 (a) to Figure 81 (b-6)).In addition, to Figure 81 (b-6), the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e in order in proper order begin to arrange from the left side at Figure 81 (a).In addition, as stated, when five or more a plurality of award symbol have been arranged again, establish getting into award, and routine is moved to the award recreation.To Figure 81 (b-6), be marked with out the symbol indication award symbol of circle " O " at Figure 81 (a).
To more concrete moving be described to Figure 81 (b-6) with reference to Figure 81 (a) below.Shown in Figure 81 (a), the first spool M3a and on its right side the second adjacent spool M3b stops, and promptly existing subsequently the establishment.At this time point, shown in Figure 81 (a), the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e are still in rotation.The first spool M3a and the second spool M3b stop, thereby become the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e as the spool of controlled target.Hereinafter, the 3rd spool M3c is called the spool as controlled target.On the first spool M3a, award symbol " O " is located at higher level and subordinate place, and on the second spool M3b, award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place.Therefore, under halted state, show three award symbols " O " altogether.
Next, as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target the time than the low rotation side rotation of conventional rotational speed, this spool stops temporarily, and symbol " BAR " is positioned at middle rank (Figure 81 (b-1)) subsequently.Next, after 0.5 second, by downward picture of direction rotation, symbol " 7 " is positioned at the higher level, and subsequently, the symbol " BAR " that is positioned at middle rank is transferred to subordinate (Figure 81 (b-2)) on the position as the 3rd spool M3c of controlled target spool.
Next, after 0.5 second, by downward picture of direction rotation, and the symbol that is positioned at the higher level is transferred to middle rank (Figure 81 (b-3)) on the position as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.Further, after 0.5 second, by downward picture of direction rotation, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and the symbol " 7 " that is positioned at middle rank is transferred to subordinate (Figure 81 (b-4)) on the position.
Further, after 0.5 second, by downward picture of direction rotation, and the symbol that is positioned at the higher level is transferred to middle rank (Figure 81 (b-5)) on the position as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.Further, after 0.5 second, by downward picture of direction rotation, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and the award symbol that is positioned at middle rank is transferred to subordinate (Figure 81 (b-6)) on the position.
Shown in Figure 81 (b-6), award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and the subordinate of the first spool M3a, and award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank of the second spool M3b, and award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and the subordinate of the 3rd spool M3c.In this manner, under halted state, show five award symbols " O ", meet the condition that gets into award, and routine can have been moved to the award recreation subsequently.
Above-mentioned " picture " is the interval of the least unit of the digit symbol position that can stop, and also refers to the interval of the adjacent position that symbol can stop along the moving direction (sense of rotation) of spool when spool M3 has stopped.For example, this is meant the interval of the triumph line that moving direction (sense of rotation) along spool is adjacent to one another at interval.More particularly, when when higher level, middle rank and subordinate place are provided with three triumph lines, be spaced apart a picture between interval between higher level and the middle rank or middle rank and the subordinate.
< first shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out first according to the subroutine of Figure 68 and show control procedure.First shows that the step of control procedure is following.
At first, CPU operated on the rotation side slower than conventional rotational speed as the spool of controlled target the time, the spool that CPU 71 stops the rotation in the precalculated position (step S6811).
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through preset time section (for example 0.5 second) (step S6813).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms not pass through predetermined amount of time as yet (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S6813.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have passed through predetermined amount of time (being), CPU 71 will rotate a picture as the spool of controlled target, and the spool that stops the rotation once more subsequently (step S6815).
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to meet predetermined spool stop condition (step S6817).Predetermined spool stop condition comprises that establishment gets into the condition of award etc.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms that still unmet is scheduled to the spool stop condition (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S6813.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to satisfy predetermined spool stop condition (being), CPU 71 determines whether to exist the spool (step S6819) of rotation.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms to have the spool that rotates (being), the spool (step S6821) that CPU 71 changes as controlled target, and make routine get back to above-mentioned step S6811 subsequently.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms that the spools of rotation do not exist (deny), promptly, CPU 71 arranges when having accomplished CPU 71 these subroutines of completion again when stopping all spools and definite subsequently symbol.
Through carrying out this process operation, spool can be controlled as and move one by one picture and stop, thereby moves closer to predetermined spool stop condition, for example establishes the condition that gets into award, and can provide the expectation sensation to the player.
" second shows control procedure "
Figure 69 is the process flow diagram that the subroutine of the second demonstration control procedure is shown.In the process operation of the step 6725 of Figure 67, select this subroutine, and in step S6727, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
Second shows that control procedure also is and stops to control relevant process operation what establish next spool after promptly existing.That is to say, this process be with when through control at least one spool in a plurality of spools stop to establish promptly current conduct next stop the relevant process operation of spool (hereinafter, be called as as controlled target spool) of controlled target.
" second shows the overview of control procedure "
Establish promptly existing after, be recycled and reused for that spool stops temporarily, rotation once more subsequently, stop and the action of rotation once more once more temporarily as the spool of controlled target.When each spool as controlled target stopped, symbol was displayed under the halted state, thereby moves closer in predetermined spool stop condition, for example established the condition that gets into award.
To Figure 82 (b-7), the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e in order in proper order begin to arrange from the left side at Figure 82 (a).In addition, as stated, when five or more a plurality of award symbol have been arranged again, establish getting into award, and routine is moved to the award recreation subsequently.To Figure 82 (b-7), be marked with out the symbol indication award symbol of circle " O " at Figure 82 (a).
To more concrete moving be described to Figure 82 (b-7) with reference to Figure 82 (a) below.Shown in Figure 82 (a), the first spool M3a and on its right side the second adjacent spool M3b stops, and promptly existing subsequently the establishment.At this time point, shown in Figure 82 (a), the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e are still in rotation.The first spool M3a and the second spool M3b stop, thereby become the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e as the spool of controlled target.Hereinafter, the 3rd spool M3c is described as the spool as controlled target.On the first spool M3a, award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and subordinate place, and on the second spool M3b, award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place.Therefore, under halted state, show three award symbols " O " altogether.
Next, stop (stopping for the first time) at the 3rd spool M3c, and symbol " BAR " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 82 (b-1)) subsequently as the spool of controlled target temporarily.Next, after having passed through predetermined amount of time, rotate (Figure 82 (b-2)) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.
Next, stop (stopping for the second time) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, symbol " 7 " is positioned at the middle rank place, and symbol " BAR " is positioned at subordinate place (Figure 82 (b-3)) temporarily.Stopping for the second time, the position that rotate a picture by downward direction than the rotation that stops the above-mentioned first time at spool as the 3rd spool M3a of the spool of controlled target more and stop (Figure 82 (b-1)).Next, after having passed through predetermined amount of time, rotate (Figure 82 (b-4)) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.
Next, stop (stopping for the third time) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and symbol " 7 " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 82 (b-5)) subsequently temporarily.When stopping for the third time, Duo the position of a rotation picture by downward direction than the rotation that stops the above-mentioned second time at spool as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target and stop (Figure 82 (b-3)).Next, after having passed through predetermined amount of time, rotate (Figure 82 (b-6)) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.
Next, stop (the 4th time stop) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level place, and symbol " 7 " is positioned at subordinate place (Figure 82 (b-7)) subsequently temporarily.When stopping for the 4th time, Duo the position of a rotation picture by downward direction than the above-mentioned rotation that stops for the third time at spool as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target and stop (Figure 82 (b-5)).
In addition; When as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target through carrying out similar process operation when stopping; Award symbol " O " can be positioned at higher level and subordinate's place's (not shown), can satisfy and establish the condition that gets into award, and routine can be moved to the award recreation subsequently.
Above-mentioned " picture " is the interval of the least unit of the digit symbol position that can stop, and also refers to the interval of the adjacent position that symbol can stop along the moving direction (sense of rotation) of spool M3 when spool M3 has stopped.For example, this is meant the interval of the triumph line that moving direction (sense of rotation) along spool is adjacent to one another at interval.More particularly, when when higher level, middle rank and subordinate place are provided with three triumph lines, be spaced apart a picture between interval between higher level and the middle rank or middle rank and the subordinate.
< second shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out second according to the subroutine of Figure 69 and show control procedure.Second shows that the step of control procedure is following.
At first, CPU 71 stops the spool (step S6911) as controlled target in the precalculated position.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through first predetermined amount of time (for example 0.5 second) (step S6913).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms as yet not through first predetermined amount of time (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S6913.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have passed through first predetermined amount of time (being), CPU 71 rotations are as the spool (step S6915) of controlled target.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to pass through for second time period (for example, 0.5 second) (step S6919).
Next, 71 pairs of spools as controlled target of CPU stop control, thereby make it stop at the position (step S6919) that spool likens a picture of the many rotations in the position that has stopped before the spool for controlled target to.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to satisfy predetermined spool stop condition (step S6912).Predetermined spool stop condition comprises the condition that gets into award of for example establishing.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms that still unmet is scheduled to the spool stop condition (denying), CPU71 makes routine get back to step S6913.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to satisfy predetermined spool stop condition (being), CPU 71 determines whether still to exist the spool (step S6923) of rotation.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms to have the spool that rotates (being), the spool (step S6925) that CPU 71 changes as controlled target, and make routine get back to above-mentioned step S6911 subsequently.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms not exist the spool of rotation (deny), promptly stop all spools and definite subsequently when having accomplished symbol and arranging again, CPU 71 these subroutines of completion as CPU 71.
Through carrying out this process operation; Provide when not establishing the uneasiness sensation that gets into award to the player as the spool rotation of controlled target at every turn; Be controlled as as the spool of controlled target and stop; Thereby approach predetermined spool stop condition, when for example each spool stops after rotation one by one picture establish the condition that gets into award, thereby can provide higher expectation sensation to the player once more.
" the 3rd shows control procedure "
Figure 70 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the 3rd demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6725 of Figure 67, select this subroutine, and in step S6727, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
The 3rd shows that control procedure is and stops to control relevant process operation what establish next spool after promptly existing.That is to say, this control procedure be with when having stopped establishing and promptly currently stop the relevant process operation of control of the spool (hereinafter, be called as as controlled target spool) of controlled target as next through controlling at least one spool in a plurality of spools.
" the 3rd shows the overview of control procedure "
Establish promptly existing after; Spool as controlled target repeats the action that spool stopped temporarily before the triumph line that has stopped the award symbol of spool is positioned; Picture ground propelling one by one in per subsequently 0.5 second;, the triumph line that has stopped the award symbol stops before being decided to be subsequently temporarily, and picture ground propelling one by one in per subsequently 0.5 second.For example, said reel repetition picture is presented and the action of rotating (rotating again) again." picture is presented " is operation of advancing of picture ground etc. one by one in per 0.5 second.
Show in the control procedure that first " triumph line " is meant each bar in horizontally extending three lines of higher level, middle rank and subordinate (referring to Figure 83 (a) to Figure 83 (b-9)).In addition, to Figure 83 (b-9), the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e in order in proper order begin to arrange from the left side at Figure 83 (a).In addition, as stated, when five or more a plurality of award symbol have been arranged again, establish getting into award, and routine is moved to the award recreation subsequently.To Figure 83 (b-9), be marked with out the symbol indication award symbol of circle " O " at Figure 83 (a).
To more concrete moving be described to Figure 83 (b-9) with reference to Figure 83 (a) below.Shown in Figure 83 (a), the first spool M3a and on its right side the second adjacent spool M3b stops, and promptly existing subsequently the establishment.At this time point, shown in Figure 83 (a), the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e are still in rotation.The first spool M3a and the second spool M3b stop, thereby become the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e as the spool of controlled target.Hereinafter, the 3rd spool M3c is described as the spool of controlled target.On the first spool M3a, award symbol " O " is located at higher level and subordinate place, and on the second spool M3b, award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place.Therefore, under halted state, show three award symbols " O " altogether.
Next, stop, and symbol " 7 " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 83 (b-1)) subsequently at the 3rd spool M3c as the spool of controlled target temporarily.Next, after 0.5 second, by picture of downward direction rotation, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level place as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and the symbol " 7 " that is positioned at middle rank subsequently is transferred to subordinate place (Figure 83 (b-2)) on the position.
Next, after 0.5 second, by picture of downward direction rotation, and the award symbol " O " that is positioned at the higher level place subsequently is transferred to middle rank place (Figure 83 (b-3)) on the position as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.In addition; After 0.5 second, by picture of downward direction rotation, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level place as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target; And subsequently, be positioned at the intermediate award symbol of locating " O " and on the position, be transferred to subordinate place (Figure 83 (b-4)).
Next, rotate (Figure 83 (b-5)) once more as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and stop subsequently temporarily, and symbol " 7 " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 83 (b-6)).Next; After 0.5 second; By picture of downward direction rotation, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level place as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and the symbol " 7 " that is positioned at the middle rank place subsequently is transferred to subordinate place (Figure 83 (b-7)) on the position.
Next, after 0.5 second, by picture of downward direction rotation, and the award symbol that is positioned at the higher level place subsequently is transferred to middle rank place (Figure 83 (b-8)) on the position as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.In addition; After 0.5 second; By picture of downward direction rotation, award symbol " O " is positioned at the higher level place as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and the award symbol " O " that is positioned at the middle rank place subsequently is transferred to subordinate place (Figure 83 (b-9)) on the position.
Shown in Figure 83 (b-9), award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and the subordinate place of the first spool M3a; Award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place of the second spool M3b; And award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and the subordinate place of the 3rd spool M3c.In this manner, five award symbols under halted state, have been shown; Satisfied the condition that gets into award of establishing; And subsequently, routine can be moved to the award recreation.
Above-mentioned " picture " is the interval of the least unit of the digit symbol position that can stop, and also refers to the interval of the adjacent position that symbol can stop along the moving direction (sense of rotation) of spool M3 when spool M3 has stopped.For example, this is meant the interval of the triumph line that moving direction (sense of rotation) along spool is adjacent to one another at interval.More particularly, when when higher level, middle rank and subordinate place are provided with three triumph lines, be spaced apart a picture between interval between higher level and the middle rank or middle rank and the subordinate.
< the 3rd shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out the 3rd according to the subroutine of Figure 70 and show control procedure.The 3rd shows that the step of control procedure is following.
At first, CPU operated on the rotation side slower than conventional rotational speed as the spool of controlled target the time, the spool that CPU 71 stops the rotation in the precalculated position (step S7011).
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through first predetermined amount of time (for example 0.5 second) (step S7013).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms as yet not through first predetermined amount of time (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7013.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have passed through first predetermined amount of time (being), CPU 71 will rotate a picture as the spool of controlled target, and the spool that stops the rotation once more subsequently (step S7015).
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to satisfy predetermined spool stop condition (step S7017).Predetermined spool stop condition comprises that establishment gets into the condition of award etc.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms that still unmet is scheduled to the spool stop condition (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7013.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to satisfy predetermined spool stop condition (being), CPU 71 determines whether to satisfy predetermined completion condition (step S7019).When the execution number of times of the process operation among the following step S7021 reaches pre-determined number, can satisfy predetermined completion condition.Pre-determined number comprises for example three times.Through doing like this, can repeating step S7011 to the process operation of S7023, till the number of revolutions as the spool of controlled target reaches pre-determined number.
When confirming that still unmet is scheduled to the completion condition in definite process of CPU 71 at step S7019 (denying), CPU 71 rotations are as the spool (step S7021) of controlled target.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through second predetermined amount of time (for example 0.5 second) (step S7023).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms as yet not through second predetermined amount of time (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7023.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have passed through second predetermined amount of time (being), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7011.
When confirming to satisfy predetermined completion condition in definite process of CPU 71 at above-mentioned steps S7019 (being), CPU 71 determines whether to exist the spool (step S7025) of rotation.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms to have the spool that rotates (being), the spool (step S7027) that CPU 71 changes as controlled target, and make routine get back to above-mentioned step S7011 subsequently.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms not exist the spool of rotation (deny), promptly, CPU 71 arranges when having accomplished CPU 71 these subroutines of completion again when stopping all spools and definite subsequently symbol.
Through carrying out this process operation, although satisfied predetermined spool stop condition temporarily, also rotate spool once more, thereby make the player feel uneasy as controlled target.In addition, through carrying out similarly moving satisfied predetermined spool stop condition, feel thereby make the player have higher expectation.
" the 4th shows control procedure "
Figure 71 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the 4th demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6725 of Figure 67, select this subroutine, and in step S6727, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
The 4th shows that control procedure is and stops to control relevant process operation what establish next spool after promptly existing.That is to say; This control procedure be with when through controlling the relevant process operation of control that at least one spool in a plurality of spools has stopped establishing promptly current spool as next target that stops to control (hereinafter, be called as as controlled target spool).
" the 4th shows the overview of control procedure "
Establish promptly existing after, as the spool of controlled target be recycled and reused for spool stop temporarily, subsequently by forward direction rotate once more, stop subsequently temporarily, subsequently by the back to direction rotate once more, stop subsequently temporarily, subsequently by forward direction rotate lentamente, and the action that stops subsequently.In this time, another position when position that stops as the spool of controlled target is different from every turn spool as controlled target and stops.For example, when stopping, stopping at every turn, thereby approach the triumph line that can obtain to reward as the spool of controlled target as the spool of controlled target.
Show in the control procedure the 4th that equally " triumph line " is meant each bar in horizontally extending three lines of higher level, middle rank and subordinate (referring to Figure 84 (a) to Figure 84 (b-7)).In addition, to Figure 84 (b-7), the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, three spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e in order in proper order begin to arrange from the left side at Figure 84 (a).In addition, as stated, when five or more a plurality of award symbol have been arranged again, establish getting into award, and routine is moved to the award recreation subsequently.To Figure 84 (b-7), be marked with out the symbol indication award symbol of circle " O " at Figure 84 (a).
To more concrete moving be described to Figure 84 (b-7) with reference to Figure 84 (a) below.Shown in Figure 84 (a), the first spool M3a and on its right side the second adjacent spool M3b stops, and promptly existing subsequently the establishment.At this time point, shown in Figure 84 (a), the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e are still in rotation.The first spool M3a and the second spool M3b stop, thereby become the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e as the spool of controlled target.Hereinafter, the 3rd spool M3c is described as the spool of controlled target.On the first spool M3a, award symbol " O " is located at higher level and subordinate place, and on the second spool M3b, award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place.Therefore, under halted state, show three award symbols " O " altogether.
Next, stop as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and symbol " BAR " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 84 (b-1)) subsequently temporarily.Next, section (for example, 0.5 second) press forward direction (for example, by downward direction) as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target and is rotated (Figure 84 (b-2)) afterwards at the fixed time.
Next, after the section, stop at the fixed time, and symbol " BAR " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 84 (b-3)) subsequently at the 3rd spool M3c as the spool of controlled target temporarily.Next, at the fixed time section (for example, 0.5 second) afterwards, as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target by the back to direction (for example, by upwards direction) rotation (Figure 84 (b-4)).
Next, at the fixed time after the section, stop as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target, and symbol " BAR " is positioned at middle rank place (Figure 84 (b-5)) subsequently temporarily.Next, section (for example, 0.5 second) press forward direction (for example, by upwards direction) as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target and is rotated (Figure 84 (b-6)) lentamente afterwards at the fixed time.
Next, at the fixed time after the section, stop, and sentence halted state in higher level and subordinate subsequently and show and award symbol " O " (Figure 84 (b-7)) as the 3rd spool M3c of the spool of controlled target.
Figure 84 (b-1), Figure 84 (b-3), Figure 84 (b-5) show at middle rank and sentence the situation of halted state demonstration with kind symbol " BAR ".As stated, preferably show different types of symbol, thereby when stopping as the spool of controlled target, the position that stops to differ from one another at every turn with halted state.Especially, preferably, precondition when each spool as controlled target stops, establishing the condition that gets into award when moving closer to.
Shown in Figure 84 (b-7), award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and the subordinate place of the first spool M3a; Award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place of the second spool M3b; And award symbol " O " is positioned at higher level and the subordinate place of the 3rd spool M3c.In this manner, five award symbols under halted state, have been shown; Satisfied the condition that gets into award of establishing; And subsequently, routine can be moved to the award recreation.
< the 4th shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out the 4th according to the subroutine of Figure 71 and show control procedure.The 4th shows that the step of control procedure is following.
At first, CPU 71 stops the spool (step S7111) as controlled target in the precalculated position.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through first predetermined amount of time (for example 0.5 second) (step S7113).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms as yet not through first predetermined amount of time (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7113.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have passed through first predetermined amount of time (being), CPU 71 presses the spool (step S7115) of forward direction rotation as controlled target.Forward direction used herein be meant spool as controlled target in display window 150 by the for example direction of downward direction rotation.
Next, through after the predetermined amount of time, CPU 71 stops the spool (step S7117) as controlled target in the precalculated position after the rotation as the spool of controlled target begins.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through second predetermined amount of time (for example, 0.5 second) (step S7119).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms as yet not through second predetermined amount of time (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7119.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have passed through second predetermined amount of time (being), CPU 71 rotates the spool (step S7121) as controlled target by the back to direction.Back used herein to direction be meant spool as controlled target in display window 150 by the for example direction of direction rotation upwards.
Next, through after the predetermined amount of time, CPU 71 stops the spool (step S7123) as controlled target in the precalculated position after the rotation as the spool of controlled target begins.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have passed through the 3rd predetermined amount of time (for example, 0.5 second) (step S7125).
Next, when CPU 71 confirms as yet not through the 3rd time period (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7125.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to pass through for the 3rd time period (being), CPU 71 is by the spool (step S7127) that rotates lentamente as controlled target.Rotational speed in the process operation of step S7127 can be than the slow speed of rotational speed among step S7115 or the step S7121.In addition, along with the rotational speed as the spool of controlled target is little by little slowed down, can in the process operation of next step S7129, stop spool as controlled target.
Next, through after the predetermined amount of time, CPU 71 stops the spool (step S7129) as controlled target in the precalculated position after the rotation as the spool of controlled target begins.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to satisfy completion condition (step S7131).The completion condition of here using is meant the stop position as the spool of controlled target that is satisfying that the position of establishing the condition that gets into award confirmed.That is to say this deterministic process is to confirm whether stop in the position of satisfying the condition of establishing the entering award as the spool of controlled target according to the process operation of S7129.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms that still unmet is accomplished condition (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7113.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have satisfied the completion condition (being), CPU 71 determines whether to exist the spool (step S7113) of rotation.
Next, when CPU 71 confirms to have the spool that rotates (being), the spool (step S7135) that CPU 71 changes as controlled target, and make routine get back to above-mentioned step S7111 subsequently.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms not exist the spool of rotation (deny), promptly, CPU 71 arranges when having accomplished CPU 71 these subroutines of completion again when stopping all spools and definite subsequently symbol.
Although order execution in step S7113 has been shown in order in above-mentioned example to the situation of the process operation of S7129; But can from following process operation, select and carry out any one process operation: carry out selection process at every turn; Completion condition up to step S7131 only has been established as, and presses the spool (step S7115) of forward direction rotation as controlled target subsequently; Rotate spool (step S7121) by the back to direction as controlled target; And rotate spool (step S7127) lentamente as controlled target by forward direction.Through doing like this, the spool Move Mode is selected randomly, till the completion condition of step S7131, thereby the player can be moved by the visual identity spool, to give the sensation of nervous atmosphere and enhancing expectation.
In the process operation of above-mentioned steps S7117, S7123 and S7129, stop to be scheduled to as the reel spool position of controlled target.Stop to be confirmed randomly as the reel spool position of controlled target.In addition, stop to be confirmed as the position that moves closer to the condition of establishment entering award when satisfied each spool as controlled target stops, promptly being confirmed as the triumph line that moves closer in the acquisition award as the reel spool position of controlled target.In this manner, through stopping spool, can strengthen player's expectation sensation as controlled target.
In this manner, as the rotation of the spool forward direction of controlled target, back to rotation or rotation lentamente, thereby giving uneasy sensation to the player when, can expect the sensation that strengthens.
" the 5th shows control procedure "
Figure 72 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the 5th demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6725 of Figure 67, select this subroutine, and in step S6727, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
The 5th shows that control procedure is and stops to control relevant process operation what establish next spool after promptly existing.That is to say that this control procedure is to have stopped establishing the process operation of promptly being correlated with as the control of the spool (spool that is called as hereinafter, controlled target) of next target that stops to control now with at least one spool of working as through controlling in a plurality of spools.In first to the 4th above-mentioned demonstration control procedure operation; As the quantity of the spool of controlled target always one; And when when establishing a plurality of spools rotation in promptly existing back, each in a plurality of spools is sequentially selected the spool as controlled target, and is controlled as subsequently and stops.The 5th shows that control procedure is when when establishing a plurality of spools rotation in promptly existing back, and at least two spools controlling as the spool of controlled target stop.
< the 5th shows the overview of control procedure >
Established promptly existing after, when all residue spools during as the spool rotation of controlled target, symbol is adjusted to horizontal direction and forms.For example, for the congener symbol " 7 " that is assigned to corresponding three spools, three spool rotations form congener three symbols " 7 "-" 7 "-" 7 " in the horizontal direction simultaneously, and these symbols stop simultaneously.
To more concrete moving be described to Figure 85 (c) with reference to Figure 85 (a) below.Shown in Figure 85 (a), the first spool M3a and on its right side the second adjacent spool M3b stops, and promptly existing subsequently the establishment.At this time point, shown in Figure 85 (a), the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e are still in rotation.The first spool M3a and the second spool M3b stop, thereby the spool of controlled target becomes the 3rd spool M3c to the five spool M3e.Hereinafter, the 3rd spool M3c is described as the spool of controlled target.On the first spool M3a, award symbol " O " is located at higher level and subordinate place, and on the second spool M3b, award symbol " O " is positioned at the middle rank place.Therefore, under halted state, show three award symbols " O " altogether.
Next; Adjust the rotational speed of the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e as the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e of the spool of controlled target; Thereby form symbol along horizontal direction, keep their rotation status (step S85 (b)) simultaneously.
Next; When along horizontal direction formation symbol; The rotational speed of the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e is by balanced (Figure 85 (c)); And subsequently, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e are little by little slowed down by balanced rotational speed simultaneously, and the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e stop simultaneously.
< the 5th shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out the 5th according to the subroutine of Figure 72 and show control procedure.。The 5th shows that the step of control procedure is following.
At first, CPU 71 changes are as the rotational speed (step S7211) of the spool of controlled target.Existing under two situation, a spool as controlled target is remained on conventional rotational speed, and another spool as controlled target is set to be in and conventional rotational speed different speed as the spool of controlled target.Through doing like this, can little by little form symbol, the spool as controlled target rotates simultaneously.In addition; Exist under three situation as the spool of controlled target; First spool as controlled target is remained on conventional rotational speed; Second spool as controlled target is set to be in first speed different with conventional rotational speed, and the 3rd spool as controlled target is set to be in the second speed different with first speed with conventional speeds.Through doing like this, can little by little form symbol, the spool as controlled target rotates simultaneously.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to deposit the spool as controlled target (step S7213) that has formed symbol above that in the horizontal direction.This confirm through with the rotation of conventional rotational speed as the spool of controlled target with carry out through spool as controlled target with the rotational speed rotation different with conventional rotational speed.Can use the numbering of distinguished symbol to determine whether to have formed in the horizontal direction symbol.When CPU 71 confirm portions do not deposit formed in the horizontal direction above that symbol as the spool of controlled target the time (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7213.
On the other hand; When CPU 71 confirm to deposit formed in the horizontal direction above that symbol as the spool of controlled target the time (being), with the rotational speed as the spool of controlled target of the rotational speed rotation different with conventional speeds be reset for formed on it symbol as the conventional speeds in the spool of controlled target (step S7215).Through doing like this, can rotate constantly with conventional rotational speed as the spool of controlled target, keep wherein having formed the state of symbol simultaneously.
Next, CPU 71 determines whether to have formed in the horizontal direction symbol (step S7217) for all spools as controlled target.When CPU 71 confirms not form symbol in the horizontal direction for all spools as controlled target (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7213.
On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms to have formed symbol in the horizontal direction for all spools as controlled target (being), the rotation of all spools as controlled target little by little slows down (step S7219).
Next, CPU 71 confirms whether all spools as controlled target stop (step S7221).When CPU 71 confirms that all spools as controlled target do not stop as yet (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7219.On the other hand, when CPU 71 confirms that all spools as controlled target have stopped (being), CPU 71 accomplishes this subroutine.
In this manner, form symbol, simultaneously a plurality of spool rotation in the horizontal direction, thereby therefore the outward appearance that player's ability visual identity symbol little by little forms can strengthen player's expectation sensation as controlled target.
" the 6th shows control procedure "
Figure 73 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the 6th demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6615 of Figure 66, select this subroutine, and in the step S6727 of Figure 67, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
The 6th show control procedure be the spool that rotates with beginning of triggering of the fact of operating turn knob 602 based on the player Spin Control with stop to control relevant process operation.
< the 6th shows the overview of control procedure >
When the player pushed turn knob 602, the first spool M3a, the 3rd spool M3c and the 5th spool M3e were with forward direction direction rotation, and the second spool M3b rotates to direction with Volume Four axle M3d is later subsequently.Afterwards, omnipotent symbol stops with the order of the second spool M3b and Volume Four axle M3d, and stops lentamente with the mode of making us worrying with the order of the first spool M3a, the 3rd spool M3c and the 5th spool M3e subsequently.
Omnipotent symbol used herein is to have a symbol that the current sign of making becomes in game machine 300 function of any symbol that uses, thereby and particularly can be replaced the symbol that makes that game result is favourable to the player.
To concrete moving be described with reference to Figure 86 (a) and Figure 86 (b) below.When the player pushed turn knob 602, the first spool M3a, the 3rd spool M3c and the 5th spool M3e were with forward direction direction rotation, and the second spool M3b rotates (Figure 86 (a)) by the back to direction with Volume Four axle M3d subsequently.In Figure 86 (a), the spool of forward direction rotation is pressed in downward arrow indication, and the arrow that makes progress indication is by the spool of back to the direction rotation.
Afterwards, the second spool M3b stops, and under halted state, shows omnipotent symbol " WILD "; And subsequently, Volume Four axle M3d stops, and under halted state, shows omnipotent symbol " WILD " (Figure 86 (b)).
Subsequently, the first spool M3a stops when slowing down its rotational speed lentamente.Next, the 3rd spool M3c stops when slowing down its rotational speed lentamente.At last, the 5th spool M3e stops when slowing down its rotational speed lentamente.
< the 6th shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out the 6th according to the subroutine of Figure 73 and show control procedure.The 6th shows that control procedure is following.
At first, in the process operation of the step S6615 of above-mentioned Figure 66 and S6617, CPU 71 rotates the first spool M3a, the 3rd spool M3c and the 5th spool M3e by forward direction, and rotates the second spool M3b and Volume Four axle M3d by the back to direction subsequently.
Preferably, the spool rotary course is following.As stated, according to the combination deterministic process of S8, omnipotent symbol " WILD " is determined to be in and is presented under the halted state on the second spool M3b and the Volume Four axle M3d.Therefore,, in these five spools of M3e, determine whether to exist to allow omnipotent symbol " WILD " under halted state, to be displayed on the spool on the triumph line at first to the 5th spool M3a.At first to the 5th spool M3a in these five spools of M3e; When confirming to exist the omnipotent symbol of permission " WILD " under halted state, to be displayed on the spool on the triumph line; The spool that allows omnipotent symbol " WILD " under halted state, to be shown rotates to direction by the back, and the spool that does not allow omnipotent symbol " WILD " under halted state, to be shown subsequently rotates to direction by the back.Through doing like this, the spool that allows omnipotent symbol " WILD " under halted state, to be shown can always rotate to direction by the back.Can in the process operation of the step S6615 of above-mentioned Figure 66 and S6617, carry out these process operations.
Next, CPU 71 utilizes predetermined opportunity (for example, after spool rotation beginning through predetermined amount of time after), stops the second spool M3b (step S7311).
Next, CPU 71 utilizes predetermined opportunity (for example, behind execution in step S7311 through predetermined amount of time after), stops Volume Four axle M3d (step S7313).
Next, CPU 71 determines whether on second spool M3b that has stopped and Volume Four axle M3d, to have shown omnipotent symbol " WILD " (step S7315) with halted state.
When having shown omnipotent symbol " WILD " with halted state on the second spool M3b that CPU 71 confirms to stop and the Volume Four axle M3d (being), the rotational speed of the first spool M3a is little by little slowed down (step S7317).
Next, CPU 71 confirms whether the first spool M3a stops (step S7319).When CPU71 confirms that the first spool M3a does not stop as yet (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7317.
When CPU 71 confirms that the first spool M3a has stopped (being), the rotational speed of the 3rd spool M3c is little by little slowed down (step S7321).
Next, CPU 71 confirms whether the 3rd spool M3c stops (step S7323).When CPU71 confirms that the 3rd spool M3c does not stop as yet (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7321.
When CPU 71 confirms that the 3rd spool M3c has stopped (being), the rotational speed of the 5th spool M3e is little by little slowed down (step S7325).
Next, CPU 71 confirms whether the 5th spool M3e stops (step S7327).When CPU71 confirms that the 5th spool M3e does not stop as yet (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7325.
When CPU 71 confirms that the 5th spool M3e has stopped (being), CPU 71 accomplishes this subroutine.
In definite process of above-mentioned steps S7315; When showing omnipotent symbol " WILD " with halted state on the second spool M3b that CPU 71 confirms not stop as yet and the Volume Four axle M3d (denying); CPU 71 stops the first spool M3a, the 3rd spool M3c and the 5th spool M3e (step S7329) by normal mode (first pattern), and accomplishes this subroutine subsequently.
Through doing like this, the sense of rotation of first rotation of five spools is alternately different, thereby makes the player be surprised, and what be next is seen in expectation.In addition, omnipotent symbol is shown under halted state, thereby can strengthen the expectation sensation.At last, spool stops lentamente, thereby can bring nervous atmosphere for the player, and attracts the interest of player to beginning from rotation to move to the spool that symbol is arranged again.
" the 7th shows control procedure "
Figure 74 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the 7th demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6615 of Figure 66, select this subroutine, and in step S6617, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
The 7th show control procedure be the spool that rotates with beginning of triggering of the fact of operating turn knob 602 based on the player Spin Control with stop to control relevant process operation.
< the 7th shows the overview of control procedure >
When the player pushed turn knob 602, the symbol on the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e was upwards transferred to half the position under the picture lentamente in 0.5 second.Afterwards, just after symbol had been transferred to half position under the picture, the first all spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e were with rotation simultaneously at a high speed.
Above-mentioned " picture " is the interval of the least unit of the digit symbol position that can stop, and also refers to the interval of the adjacent position that symbol can stop along the moving direction (sense of rotation) of spool when spool M3 has stopped.For example, this is meant the interval of the triumph line that moving direction (sense of rotation) along spool is adjacent to one another at interval.More particularly, when when higher level, middle rank and subordinate place are provided with three triumph lines, be spaced apart a picture between interval between higher level and the middle rank or middle rank and the subordinate.Therefore, above-mentioned " half picture " is meant the half the interval as a picture, and the position of " half picture " is meant centre position or the centre position between middle rank and the subordinate between higher level and the middle rank.
To Figure 87 (c) concrete moving be described with reference to Figure 87 (a) below.Before the player pushed turn knob 602, symbol " BAR " was displayed on the first spool M3a with halted state; Symbol " 7 " is displayed on the second spool M3b with halted state; Award symbol " O " is displayed on the 3rd spool M3c with halted state; Symbol " 7 " is displayed on the axle M3d of Volume Four with halted state; And award symbol " O " is displayed on the 5th spool M3e upward (Figure 87 (a)) with halted state.
Next; When the player pushed turn knob 602, the symbol " BAR " on the first spool M3a, the symbol " 7 " on the second spool M3b, the award symbol " O " on the 3rd spool M3c, the symbol " 7 " on the axle M3d of Volume Four and the award symbol " O " on the 5th spool M3e were moved upwards up under half picture (Figure 87 (b)) by forward direction (downward direction) in 0.5 second.
Next, these symbols by on when moving on to half position under the picture, the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e begin rotation by the back to direction (upwards direction) simultaneously.Afterwards, spool is with than conventional rotational speed rotational speed rotation faster (Figure 86 (c)).
< the 7th shows the step of control procedure >
Particularly, carry out the 7th according to the subroutine of Figure 74 and show control procedure.The 7th shows that control procedure is following.
At first, CPU 71 rotates the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e (step S7411) by forward direction with the rotational speed slower than conventional rotational speed.
Next, CPU 71 confirms whether the symbol on the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e has been moved upwards up to the position (step S7413) under the picture half.
When CPU 71 confirms that symbol on the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e is not moved upwards up to half position under the picture (denying), CPU 71 makes routine get back to step S7413.
When CPU 71 confirms that symbol on the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e has been moved upwards up to half position under the picture (being), CPU 71 makes the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e stop (step S7415).
Next, CPU 71 rotates the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e (step S7417) with the rotational speed faster than conventional rotational speed, and accomplishes this subroutine subsequently.
At first, these spools rotate lentamente, and rotate to direction by the back subsequently, thereby the player is surprised, and for the player brings nervous atmosphere, and play up for the player provides low speed and high speed rotating.
" the 8th shows control procedure "
Figure 75 shows the process flow diagram of the subroutine of the 8th demonstration control procedure.In the process operation of the step S6615 of Figure 66, select this subroutine, and in the step S6727 of Figure 67, call and carry out selected subroutine subsequently.
The 8th show control procedure be the spool that rotates with beginning of triggering of the fact of operating turn knob 602 based on the player Spin Control with stop to control relevant process operation.
< the 8th shows the overview of control procedure >
All spools were with conventional rotational speed rotation two seconds.Afterwards, all spools form symbol in the horizontal direction in the rotational speed rotation faster than conventional rotational speed.Formed in the horizontal direction after the symbol, all spools rotate a little while with the mode of making us worrying with the rotational speed slower than conventional rotational speed.At last, all spools rotation after with the rotational speed rotation slower than conventional rotational speed.Substitute with the rotational speed rotation slower than conventional rotational speed, all spools can stop, and rotate thereby present through picture.
Thereby the picture that here uses is presented and is meant with by the operation that advances of picture ground one by one of for example per 0.5 second of the mode spinning reel on rank." picture " is the interval of the least unit of the digit symbol position that can stop, and the also interval of the digit symbol adjacent position that can stop along the moving direction (sense of rotation) of spool M3.For example, this is meant the interval of the triumph line that closes on of the moving direction (sense of rotation) along spool at interval.More particularly, when when there are three triumph lines in higher level, middle rank and subordinate place, be spaced apart a picture between interval between higher level and the middle rank or middle rank and the subordinate.
To Figure 88 (d) more concrete moving be described with reference to Figure 88 (a) below.When the player pushed turn knob 602, the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e began rotation (Figure 88 (a)) simultaneously by forward direction.
Afterwards; When after rotation beginning during through two seconds; When the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e are with the rotational speed rotation slower than conventional rotational speed; The rotational speed of the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e is all adjusted, thereby forms symbol (Figure 88 (b)) along horizontal direction.
Afterwards; Predetermined symbol (for example; Symbol " BAR ") forms in the horizontal direction; The rotational speed of the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e is mutually the same, and these spools all rotate (Figure 88 (c)) with the rotational speed slower than conventional rotational speed subsequently.
Afterwards, the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e stop simultaneously, thereby predetermined symbol (for example, symbol " 7 ") is shown (Figure 88 (d)) with halted state.
When predetermined symbol (for example, symbol " BAR ") when forming in the horizontal direction, the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e can rotate by the mode by rank, present thereby carry out picture.As stated, thus picture present and be meant with by the operation that advances of picture ground one by one of for example per 0.5 second of the mode spinning reel on rank.Carrying out after picture presents, the first spool M3a, the second spool M3b, the 3rd spool M3c, Volume Four axle M3d and the 5th spool M3e stop simultaneously, thereby predetermined symbol is shown (Figure 88 (d)) with halted state.
< the 8th shows the step of control procedure >
