Game machine

Abstract

To provide a game machine which can improve the amusement of a game.SOLUTION: A game machine includes a forward and rearward movement drive mechanism I95 which generates driving force for displacing a movable return rubber I54B (scallop gate HT) to either of a front position Ip21 in which a game ball shot with right shooting is less likely to roll into a right side game area 30r or a rear position Ip22 in which a game ball is more likely to roll into the right side game area 30r. By controlling the forward and rearward movement drive mechanism I95, it is possible to execute a displacement control for displacing the movable return rubber I54B to either of the front position Ip21 or the rear position Ip22. The movable return rubber I54B may includes a low repulsive return rubber component I54Ca surface and a high repulsion return rubber component I54Cb surface. When the movable return rubber I54B is positioned in the rear position Ip22, the low repulsion return rubber component I54Ca surface of the collision member and a game ball do not collide with each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 691

Claims

【Claim 1】 A game area where game balls can flow down, launching means capable of launching game balls toward the game area with different launching intensities, a first flow path through which game balls launched at a first launching intensity by the launching means can flow down, first ball-in means into which the game balls flowing down through the first flow path can enter, first privilege granting means capable of granting a first privilege based on the entry of the game balls into the first ball-in means, a collision member against which game balls launched at a second launching intensity stronger than the first launching intensity by the launching means can collide, a second flow path through which at least some of the game balls launched at the second launching intensity by the launching means can flow down, second ball-in means into which the game balls flowing down through the second flow path can enter, second privilege granting means capable of granting a second privilege based on the entry of the game balls into the second ball-in means, and a gaming machine capable of generating a plurality of gaming situations including at least a first gaming situation in which game balls flow down through the first flow path and a second gaming situation in which it is more advantageous for the player to have game balls flow down through the second flow path than through the first flow path, drive means for generating a driving force for displacing the collision member to either a first position where it is difficult for the game balls launched at the second launching intensity to flow down through the second flow path or a second position where it is easy for the game balls launched at the second launching intensity to flow down through the second flow path, a displacement support mechanism for supporting the collision member so as to be displaced to either the first position or the second position by the driving force of the drive means, displacement control means for executing displacement control for causing either a first displacement of displacing the collision member from the first position to the second position or a second displacement of displacing the collision member from the second position to the first position via the displacement support mechanism by controlling the drive means, the collision member has at least a first surface as a surface that can collide with a game ball and a second surface different from the first surface, the gaming machine is configured such that when the collision member is in the second position, the second surface of the collision member and the game ball cannot collide Characterized by a gaming machine.
