Abstract

To provide a game machine for increasing a performance effect in connection with a title display of a ready-to-win performance.SOLUTION: A background changing performance A is a performance allowing a background image to be displayed on an image display device 5 before crazing is displayed in a display area of the image display device 5 to differ from that after display of a fragment image since a glass plate is cracked, and a strong development performance A is a performance allowing a background image displayed on the image display device 5 before execution of the strong development performance A to differ from that after display of a fragment image in the strong development performance A is started. In this manner, since a type of a background image displayed before and after a fragment image is displayed commonly differs between the background changing performance A and the strong development performance A, a suitably different impression can be given to a player even in a performance in which a fragment image is displayed similarly.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 11-32

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] However, there was room for improving the commerciality in gaming machines having the functions and configurations of Patent Documents 1 and 2.

[0005] This invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a gaming machine with improved commerciality.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] The gaming machine according to claim 1 is A gaming machine that performs variable display of specific identification information, and as a result of the variable display of the specific identification information, is capable of controlling the player to an advantageous state, Game control means, A means of controlling the performance, Display means and It comprises a light emission control means for controlling the light emission means, The aforementioned game control means is Based on the fact that the game medium has entered the starting area, it is determined whether or not the game will be controlled to the advantageous state. The aforementioned specific identification information can be displayed in a variable manner. Based on the result of the above determination, it is possible to determine one of a plurality of variation patterns, including a first variation pattern which is controlled to the advantageous state, a second variation pattern which is not controlled to the advantageous state, a third variation pattern which is controlled to the advantageous state, and a fourth variation pattern which is not controlled to the advantageous state. When the first variation pattern is determined, a first command can be sent to the performance control means. When the second variation pattern is determined, a second command can be sent to the performance control means. When the third variation pattern is determined, a third command can be sent to the performance control means. When the fourth variation pattern is determined, a fourth command can be sent to the performance control means. The aforementioned performance control means is When the first command is received, it is possible to notify that the system will be controlled to the advantageous state in the first reach. When the second command is received, it is possible to notify that the first reach will not control the advantageous state, When the third command is received, it is possible to notify that the system will be controlled to the advantageous state in the second reach. When the fourth command is received, it is possible to notify that the second reach will not control the advantageous state, The execution time of the title display corresponding to the first reach and the execution time of the title display corresponding to the second reach are different, The title display corresponding to the first reach and the title display corresponding to the second reach are: The first part is from the start of the title display corresponding to the first reach or the title display corresponding to the second reach until it is displayed in a specific area, A second part in which a title display corresponding to the first reach or a title display corresponding to the second reach is displayed in the specific area, It consists of a third part which terminates the display of the title corresponding to the first reach or the title corresponding to the second reach, The aforementioned display means is In the title display corresponding to the first reach, the title display corresponding to the first reach is displayed such that the second part is longer than the first part and the third part, and the first part is longer than the third part. In the title display corresponding to the second reach, the title display corresponding to the second reach is displayed such that the second part is longer than the first and third parts, and the first part is longer than the third part. Before displaying the title corresponding to the first reach and the title corresponding to the second reach, prompt text can be displayed to encourage the player to take action. The title display corresponding to the first reach and the title display corresponding to the second reach are displayed larger than the promotional text display. In the first reach, the light-emitting means is controlled using a first reach luminance data table composed of luminance data. In the second reach, the light-emitting means is controlled using a second reach luminance data table composed of luminance data. When the title display corresponding to the first reach is executed, the title display brightness data table corresponding to the first reach is used. In the introductory part following the title display corresponding to the first reach, the brightness data table for the first reach introductory part is used. When the title display corresponding to the second reach is executed, the title display brightness data table corresponding to the second reach is used. In the introductory part following the title display corresponding to the second reach, the brightness data table for the second reach introductory part is used. The aforementioned light emission control means is When an error occurs, the light-emitting means is controlled using an error brightness data table. If the error occurs while the light-emitting means is being controlled using the first reach brightness data table, the light-emitting means is controlled using the error brightness data table, and the timer value corresponding to the first reach brightness data table is updated. If the aforementioned error is cleared, the light-emitting means is controlled again from the continuation of the first reach brightness data table that has been continuously updated, based on the updated timer value. If the error occurs while the light-emitting means is being controlled using the second reach brightness data table, the light-emitting means is controlled using the error brightness data table, and the timer value corresponding to the second reach brightness data table is updated. If the error is cleared, the light-emitting means is controlled again from the continuation of the second reach brightness data table that has been continuously updated, based on the updated timer value. It is possible to perform a predetermined performance that suggests the system is controlled to the aforementioned advantageous state, The aforementioned predetermined performance includes a first predetermined performance and a second predetermined performance. The first predetermined performance includes a first predetermined part that displays a first premonition image of a crack, and a second predetermined part that displays a plurality of fragment images corresponding to the first premonition image of a crack. The second predetermined performance includes a third predetermined part that displays a second premonition image of cracking, and a fourth predetermined part that displays multiple fragment images corresponding to the second premonition image of cracking. The execution periods for the first predetermined performance and the second predetermined performance do not overlap. The execution period differs between the first predetermined part and the third predetermined part. The fragment images in the second predetermined part and the fragment images in the fourth predetermined part are displayed in a manner of moving in a plurality of directions including at least a predetermined direction and a specific direction. The period required for the fragment image moving and displayed in the specific direction to become non-displayed in the display area of the display means is longer than that of the fragment image moving and displayed in the predetermined direction. The period required for the fragment image moving and displayed in the specific direction in the fourth predetermined part to become non-displayed in the display area of the display means is longer than that of the fragment image moving and displayed in the specific direction in the second predetermined part. Before the fragment image corresponding to the first crack precursor image is displayed in the first predetermined effect, an object image can be displayed. Before the object image is displayed, an effect image can be displayed. There are cases where the object image is displayed after the effect image is displayed and cases where the object image is not displayed. It is characterized by this.
