Abstract

To provide a game machine capable of enhancing interest in a game.SOLUTION: When a probability variable jackpot result is obtained by a winning / losing lottery, a lottery mode after an opening / closing execution mode is set to a high-probability mode, and a support mode is set to a high-frequency support mode. In this case, the upper-limit number of times of the high-frequency support mode is set larger than the upper-limit number of times of the high-probability mode, and control is set to be shifted to a normal time-shortening game state after completion of a high-probability game state. Although a shift opportunity to a sudden time-shortening game state is not established even if a winning / losing lottery results in a particular losing result in a high-probability game state, a shift opportunity to a sudden time-shortening game state is established when a particular losing result occurs in a normal time-shortening game state after completion of the high-probability game state without any jackpots. In a game round based on a remaining reservation performed after completion of a normal time-shortening game state without resulting in a particular losing result, a shift opportunity to a sudden time-shortening game state is not established even if a particular losing result occurs.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
