Abstract

To enhance interest in a game.SOLUTION: A game machine includes: main control means for executing a winning or losing lottery; performance control means for controlling at least a sound performance on the basis of a control signal from the main control means; and performance execution means capable of using first performance data and second performance data for executing a performance. The performance control means includes first indication means for indicating execution of the first performance data to the performance execution means, and second indication means for indicating execution of the second performance data to the performance execution means following the first performance data. The performance execution means includes first performance data execution means for executing the first performance data upon receipt of the indication of first performance data execution from the performance control means, specific performance data execution means for executing specific performance data following the first performance data when the execution of the first performance data is ended, and second performance data execution means for executing the second performance data upon receipt of the indication of second performance data execution from the performance control means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 587

Claims

[Claim 1] A first ball entry means through which a game ball can enter; a first predetermined information acquiring means for acquiring first predetermined information based on a game ball entering the first ball entry means; a first determination means for determining whether the first predetermined information satisfies a first condition; A second ball entry means through which the game ball can enter; a first state transition means for transitioning between a ball entry impossible state in which it is impossible or difficult for the game ball to enter the second ball entry means and a ball entry possible state in which it is possible or easy for the game ball to enter the second ball entry means; a first transition mode execution means for executing a first transition mode in which the first state transition means transitions between the ball-scoring prohibited state and the ball-scoring permitted state when it is determined that the first predetermined information satisfies the first condition; a bonus-giving mode execution means for executing a bonus-giving mode in which a bonus is given to a player when a predetermined bonus-giving condition including the game ball having entered the second ball entry means is satisfied; A gaming machine comprising: the bonus-granting mode execution means is configured to execute a plurality of types of bonus-granting modes which are different in terms of benefits to a player, including at least a specific bonus-granting mode which is the most beneficial to a player; the specific benefit-granting mode is configured to be executed a plurality of times by the predetermined benefit-granting condition being satisfied a plurality of times during a period from when the first transition mode is started to when the first transition mode is ended, The first transition mode execution means The length of a waiting period, which is a period from when the first state transition means last transitions from the score-allowed state to the score-unallowed state in the first transition mode until the next determination by the first determination means can be made, The first state transition means is configured to be able to set the time to be equal to or longer than the interval period, which is the period from when the first state transition means transitions from the score-allowed state to the score-unallowed state to when the first state transition means transitions from the score-unallowed state to the score-allowed state, This gaming machine is When the specific benefit granting mode for granting the specific benefit is executed, the length from when the specific benefit granting mode is started to when it is ended can be within a predetermined period of time, regardless of the launch mode of the game ball after the start of the specific benefit granting mode and the behavior of the game ball after the launch, This gaming machine is a waiting period, which is a period from when the first state transition means last transitions from the ball scoring state to the ball scoring non-scoring state in the first transition mode until when the next determination by the first determination means can be made, is configured to be set to a time longer than the time required from the start of the awarding of a predetermined benefit in the specific benefit awarding mode to the end of the awarding of the predetermined benefit; This gaming machine is When the specific benefit granting mode is executed, the execution of the specific benefit granting mode may not be completed at a predetermined timing in the first transition mode.
