Abstract
Claims
[Claim 1] A gaming machine that can be controlled to be in a favorable state, Game control means, A means of controlling the performance, Sound output means, The game includes a variable prize-winning mechanism that can change between a first state in which the game medium is easy to win and a second state in which the game medium is unable to win or is difficult to win. The aforementioned game control means is In the advantageous state, it is possible to change the variable prize-winning means to the first state, In the advantageous state, the game media that enter the variable prize-winning means can be counted, and when the count reaches a predetermined number, the variable prize-winning means can be changed to the second state. It is possible to calculate a difference count value related to the difference between the game value used in the game and the game value that is assigned. If the differential count value becomes the activation value when the game is not controlled to the advantageous state, the progress of the game is restricted. When the game is controlled to the advantageous state, if the difference count value becomes the activation value, the game's progress is restricted after the advantageous state ends. The aforementioned performance control means is If the aforementioned difference count value becomes the pre-notified value, it is possible to perform pre-notification to inform the player of the conditions under which the game's progress will be restricted. When the differential count value becomes the activation value while the game is controlled to the advantageous state, it is possible to execute an activation warning notification to inform the player that the game will be restricted after the advantageous state ends. The aforementioned performance control means is In the advantageous state, when the number of game media that have entered the variable prize-winning means, which is counted by the game control means, falls below a predetermined number, and the pre-notification is to be performed upon the entry of a game media, the sound corresponding to the entry is output before the pre-notification is performed. In the advantageous state, when the number of game media that have entered the variable prize means, which is counted by the game control means, falls below a predetermined number, the game machine executes the operation warning notification upon the entry of a game media, and outputs a sound corresponding to the entry before executing the operation warning notification.
