Gaming machine

Abstract

To provide a game machine that can effectively suppress a decline in interest.SOLUTION: A game machine including main control means capable of controlling the progress of a game and performance control means capable of controlling the progress of a performance includes a main accessory that can be changed to a predetermined mode to be controlled by the main control means, and predetermined operation means located in a position that is inoperable or difficult for a player to operate. The main control means includes computation processing means capable of executing computational processing, storage means for storing information necessary for the computation processing means to execute the computational processing, non-playable state control means for controlling the game state to a non-playable state when a first condition is satisfied, main accessory operation confirmation means capable of confirming the operation of the main accessory in the non-playable state, and playable state control means for controlling the game state to a playable state when a second condition is satisfied in the non-playable state.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 683

Claims

[Claim 1] A main control means capable of performing control related to the progress of the game, In a gaming machine equipped with a performance control means capable of performing control related to the progress of the performance, A main component that can be displaced in a predetermined manner controlled by the main control means, A predetermined operating means is provided in a position that is impossible or difficult for the player to operate, Equipped with, The main control means is A means for performing arithmetic operations, A storage means that stores information necessary for the execution of the calculation process by the calculation processing means, A game-disabled state control means that can control the game to a game-disabled state based on the fulfillment of the first condition, In the aforementioned state where the game cannot be played, a means for checking the operation of the main feature is provided, A game permission state control means that controls the game to a game permission state based on the fulfillment of a second condition in the aforementioned game-disabled state, Information erasure means capable of erasing the information stored in the storage means, Equipped with, The aforementioned means for confirming the operation of the main component is: Based on the fulfillment of the first condition described above, the operation check of the main component can be started. When the state in which the game cannot be played ends or the state in which the game can be played begins based on the fulfillment of the second condition described above, the operation check of the main feature can be terminated. The information erasure means can erase the information stored in the storage means when the second condition is met, or when a third condition different from the first and second conditions is met. The first, second, and third conditions are conditions that include the operation of the predetermined operating means, The storage means is provided with two work areas, The information processed using each work area is accompanied by specific information associated with the work area being used. When the calculation processing means processes information using one of the two work areas, it selects the work area to be used based on the specific information attached to the information to be processed. The aforementioned specific information is higher-level address data that constitutes the address of the corresponding work area. In the work area selection process by the calculation processing means, the calculation processing means specifies the address of the work area to be used based on the specific information. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
