Abstract

To provide a game machine capable of maintaining interest in a game.SOLUTION: A pachinko machine 1 has a start pocket capable of receiving game balls hit into a game area 5a. When a game ball enters the start pocket, determination processing regarding winning is performed. Thereafter, variable display corresponding to a result of the determination processing is started and, if a winning pattern is displayed in the variable display, a winning game is executed. Accordingly, the pachinko machine 1 can perform a special performance as a performance associated with operation means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 60

Claims

[Claim 1] A first operating means and a second operating means that can be operated by the player, A determination means for making a determination, A reward granting means that can grant a reward to a player based on the determination obtained by the determination means, A first operation-related display means capable of displaying operation-related displays related to operation instructions for the first operating means, In addition to the operation-related display related to the operation instruction for the first operating means, a predetermined operation-related light-emitting means capable of performing operation-related light emission related to the operation instruction for the first operating means at a predetermined light-emitting unit, A second operation-related display means capable of displaying operation-related displays related to operation instructions for the second operating means, In addition to the operation-related display related to the operation instruction for the second operating means, a specific operation-related light-emitting means capable of performing operation-related light emission related to the operation instruction for the second operating means at a specific light-emitting unit different from the predetermined light-emitting unit, Equipped with, A gaming machine in which, when the first operating means is kept in an operating state, multiple post-reception changes in response to an operation received by the first operating means may occur, and when the second operating means is kept in an operating state, multiple post-reception changes in response to an operation received by the second operating means may occur, When an operation-related display related to an operation instruction for the first operating means is displayed and the first operating means is maintained in an operating state, there are cases in which operation-related light emission related to the operation instruction for the first operating means is performed by the predetermined light-emitting unit, and cases in which the operation-related light emission is not performed by the predetermined light-emitting unit. In either of these cases, the post-reception changes that can occur multiple times in response to an operation instruction for the first operating means when the first operating means is maintained in an operating state include a first post-reception change that can occur at regular time intervals, whereas When an operation-related display related to an operation instruction for the second operating means is displayed and the second operating means is maintained in an operating state, and multiple post-reception changes occur in response to the operation reception, the operation-related light emission related to the operation instruction for the second operating means is performed by a specific light-emitting unit different from the predetermined light-emitting unit. However, the post-reception changes that can occur multiple times in response to the operation reception for the second operating means when the second operating means is maintained in an operating state include a second post-reception change that can occur at fixed time intervals and a third post-reception change that can occur at irregular time intervals. moreover, Even when the first operating means is maintained in an operating state without displaying an operation-related indicator related to an operation instruction for the first operating means, the first post-reception change may occur multiple times as a post-reception change in response to the operation reception of the first operating means, and the interval between the occurrence of the first post-reception change is the same as when the first post-reception change occurs multiple times when the first operating means is maintained in an operating state while displaying an operation-related indicator related to an operation instruction for the first operating means. moreover, When operation-related light emission associated with an operation instruction to the second operating means is performed at a specific light-emitting unit different from the predetermined light-emitting unit, and the second operating means is maintained in an operating state, in a state in which multiple post-reception changes occur in response to operation reception, the operation-related light emission at the specific light-emitting unit may be terminated or may not be terminated based on the operation reception to the second operating means. moreover, When operation-related light emission associated with an operation instruction to the first operating means is not performed by the predetermined light-emitting unit, the operation-related display associated with the operation instruction to the first operating means can be displayed in a specific display mode, and the display state may be maintained for a display time corresponding to the specific display mode, or the display state may be terminated prematurely at an intermediate stage before the display time corresponding to the specific display mode has elapsed. However, if the first operating means remains in an operating state even after the display state has been terminated prematurely, the situation in which multiple post-reception changes in response to the operation reception to the first operating means occur may continue before and after the premature termination. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
