Claims

[Claim 1] In a gaming machine that is connected to a gaming device in a communication manner, A connection detection means capable of detecting whether or not it is connected to a gaming device, A communication anomaly detection means capable of detecting whether or not a communication anomaly has occurred with the gaming device, A notification means that provides notification in a predetermined notification manner, A game value storage means for storing the number of game values ​​used in the game, A game execution means capable of executing a game using the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means, A game value counting means that, upon execution of a game by the game execution means, counts the number of game values ​​used in the game and updates the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means, When a player performs a first operation, the game information relating to the game executed by the game execution means is initialized, while the game information initialization means is capable of holding the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means. When a player performs a second operation different from the first operation, the game value initialization means retains the game information and can initialize the game value count, A threshold determination means for determining whether the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, Equipped with, The game value counting means can update the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means by adding a predetermined number of loans when a loan operation is performed by a player. The aforementioned notification means is, If the predetermined number of loans cannot be added to the game value, it is possible to provide notification in the manner of loan restrictions. When the threshold determination means determines that the number of game values ​​is equal to or greater than the threshold, it is possible to provide notification using the count notification method. When notification is being given in the aforementioned counting notification mode, even if the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means falls below a threshold, the notification in the aforementioned counting notification mode is continued. When the number of game values ​​stored in the game value storage means falls below the threshold value, the notification by the counting notification mode ends. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
