Problems solved by technology

Further, for example, even in case the symbols consisting of the previously determined symbol composition are displayed as being stopped at the predetermined the symbol stop positions corresponding to the predetermined area, since the light transmittance rate of the predetermined area is lowered, the player may have difficulty in recognizing the symbol composition displayed as being stopped at the predetermined the symbol stop positions.
