Slot machine

Abstract

To provide a slot machine that is improved regarding control for outputting signals corresponding to progress of a game.SOLUTION: A slot machine includes a variable display part capable of variably displaying multiple kinds of respectively identifiable identification information, derives a display result after variably displaying the variable display part, and can generate winning according to a display result of the variable display part. In the slot machine, a signal generation process for generating signals is executed, the signal generation process is executed, then a delay process for delaying progress of a game is executed, and a process for progressing a game is executed after execution of the delay process.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Claims

[Claim 1] A slot machine equipped with a variable display unit capable of displaying multiple types of identification information, each of which is identifiable, and which derives a display result after displaying the variable display unit in a variable manner, and in which a prize can be awarded according to the display result of the variable display unit, A game control means for controlling the progress of the game, The variable display unit includes a start operation means for initiating the variable display, The aforementioned game control means is Includes a predeterminant means for determining the display results that are permissible to derive. Based on the operation of the start operation means, a test signal generation process is executed to generate a test signal for identifying information regarding the decision result of the pre-determination means. After performing the aforementioned test signal generation process, a first delay process is performed to delay the progress of the game for a first period. After the first period has elapsed, a variation start process is executed to start the variation display of the variable display unit. Based on the deriveted display result of the variable display unit, a game state output process is executed to output information regarding the game state. After the aforementioned game state output process is executed, a second delay process is executed to delay the progress of the game for a second period. After the second period has elapsed, the process to start accepting betting operations for setting the bet amount to start a game is executed. The first delay process and the second delay process perform a common process, The aforementioned slot machine further comprises value control means for controlling the value of the game, The aforementioned game control means is When the aforementioned bet setting operation is received, the bet setting command is transmitted to the value control means. When a bet cancellation operation is received to cancel the bet to start a game, a bet cancellation command is sent to the value control means. When starting a game, a start command is sent to the value control means, When a game ends, the amount of game value to be awarded to the player is determined according to the result of that game, and an award value command that can specify the amount of game value to be awarded to the player is transmitted to the value control means. The aforementioned value control means is When the aforementioned betting amount setting command is received, a response command in response to the betting amount setting command is transmitted to the game control means. When the aforementioned bet cancellation command is received, a response command in response to the bet cancellation command is transmitted to the game control means. When the aforementioned startup command is received, control is performed according to the startup command. When the aforementioned value assignment command is received, a response command in response to the value assignment command is transmitted to the game control means, and control is performed according to the value assignment command. The aforementioned game control means is After transmitting the bet setting command to the value control means, the bet cancellation operation will not be accepted until the response command is received from the value control means. After sending the bet cancellation command to the value control means, the bet setting operation will not be accepted until the response command is received from the value control means. After transmitting the bet cancellation command to the value control means, the system will not accept any new bet cancellation operations until it receives the response command from the value control means. A slot machine that, after sending the aforementioned start command, performs control to cause the variable display unit to display identification information in a variable manner without waiting for a response from the value control means.
