AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing gaming machines face limitations in design freedom due to regulatory constraints on performance indicators when using a bonus state as the main function for acquiring gaming value, making it difficult to create stable and engaging gaming experiences.

Method used

A gaming machine with multiple reels and internal lottery mechanisms that allow for varying game states, including a first state with specific winning patterns, a third state allowing special combinations to carry over until won, and dynamic reel control to enhance gaming value acquisition while adhering to regulatory standards.

Benefits of technology

The solution enables high-level gaming value acquisition performance while maintaining compliance with regulations, thereby increasing design freedom and player engagement.

Abstract

To provide a technique for increasing a degree of design freedom regarding acquisition performance of a game value.SOLUTION: A BB1 state is a game state for repeating a state shift between an accessory non-operation state and an accessory operation state by the time when a completion condition of the BB1 state is completed, control is shifted to the accessory operation state when a shift winning combination is won in the accessory non-operation state and control is shifted to the accessory non-operation state when a completion condition of the accessory operation state is satisfied, a shift winning combination is won overlappingly with a replay in the accessory non-operation state, a probability of overlappingly winning a shift winning combination and a replay is higher than a probability of winning a replay in a normal state, a winning probability of a replay does not vary depending on winning of a shift winning combination, and the replay is won in preference to the shift winning combination.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 11
