Abstract

To increase game amusement.SOLUTION: A game machine includes: first predetermined information acquisition means for acquiring first predetermined information on the basis of the fact that game balls have entered first ball entry means; first shift mode executing means for executing a first shift mode for shifting first state shift means between a ball entry disabled state and a ball entry enabled state when it is determined that first predetermined information satisfies a first condition; second shift mode executing means for executing a second shift mode for shifting second state shift means between the ball entry disabled state and the ball entry enabled state, when game balls enter second ball entry means; and third shift mode executing means for executing a third shift mode in which third state shift means is shifted between the ball entry disabled state and the ball entry enabled state, when the game balls enter fourth ball entry means. The first shift mode executing means includes means capable of setting a time required from the start to the end of the first shift mode to a time longer than the sum of a time required from the start to the end of the second shift mode and a time required from the start to the end of the third shift mode.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 714

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; This gaming machine is the specific benefit-granting mode is executed a plurality of times by satisfying the predetermined benefit-granting condition a plurality of times during a period from when the first transition mode is started to when the first transition mode is ended, 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 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.
