Abstract

To provide a gaming machine that allows for the creation of optimal gameplay. [Solution] In the first section, a process is executed to transition to the second section based on a win at any index value. In the second section, a process is executed to update the value of the total acquired counter to be closer to the upper limit based on the fact that game value has been awarded to the player. Furthermore, in the second section, when the value of the total acquired counter is greater than a specific reference number, a process is executed to set an initial value to the total acquired counter based on the fact that a win to transition to the second CZ has occurred and the remaining number of continuous games in the first AT state has become "0". The specific reference number is a value that is closer to the initial value than the upper limit.
