Abstract

To provide a game machine capable of enhancing interest in a game.SOLUTION: A game machine includes: game control means (a game control microcomputer 100) for controlling progress of a game; performance control means (a performance control CPU 120) for controlling a performance; and a liquid crystal indicator (an image display device 5). The performance control means displays a glass plate image on the liquid crystal indicator and executes a cracking performance for cracking the glass plate image according to a performance control command transmitted from the game control means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 125

Claims

[Claim 1] A gaming machine that displays variable information and can be controlled to create a favorable state for the player, 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 cracking, and a second predetermined part that displays a plurality of fragment images corresponding to the first premonition image of cracking. The second predetermined performance includes a third predetermined part that displays a second premonition image of cracking, and a fourth predetermined part that displays a plurality of 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. Before the first predetermined part is executed and when the fragment image in the second predetermined part is displayed, the type of background image displayed in a layer with a lower priority than the layer on which the first crack precursor image is displayed is different. Before the third predetermined part is executed and when the fragment image in the fourth predetermined part is displayed, the type of background image displayed in the layer with a lower priority than the layer on which the second crack precursor image is displayed is different. A predetermined background image can be displayed as a background image before the fragment image in the second predetermined part is displayed. As a background image after the fragment image in the second predetermined part is displayed, any of a plurality of background images can be displayed, which is different from the predetermined background image and includes a first background image and a second background image that suggests a higher probability of being controlled to the favorable state than the first background image. In the first predetermined performance, before the fragment image corresponding to the first premonition image of cracking is displayed, the object image can be displayed in any of several forms. When the predetermined background image is displayed, depending on which of the multiple forms of the object image is displayed, it is possible to suggest which of the multiple background images will be displayed after the fragment image in the second predetermined part is displayed. The effect image can be displayed in one manner at a predetermined timing before the object image is displayed. At the predetermined timing, there are cases in which the object image is displayed after the effect image is displayed in the first mode, and cases in which the object image is not displayed. The effect image can be displayed in a first pattern, which involves displaying the effect image in one mode at a predetermined timing, and then displaying an effect image in a specific mode different from the first mode without displaying the object image. The effect image can be displayed in the first manner at the predetermined timing, and then in a second pattern in which the effect image is not displayed in a specific manner different from the first manner. The object image can be displayed after the effect image is displayed in the first pattern described above. Game control means, Means of execution of the performance, Equipped with a retained memory means, The aforementioned reserved storage means is capable of storing information related to the variable display as reserved storage, up to a predetermined number, based on the occurrence of a starting prize. The game control means can execute the next variable display when a variable display has finished, provided that there is a reserved memory corresponding to the next variable display. The aforementioned performance execution means is When a hold memory is stored, it is possible to display one of several types of hold displays, including a first hold display and a second hold display that is different in form from the first hold display. In a situation where fewer than the predetermined number of reserved memories are stored, If a starting win occurs at the first timing, the first hold display can be displayed in the first start mode, then changed to the first intermediate mode, and then changed to the first completion mode. If a starting win occurs at the first timing, the second hold display can be displayed in the second start mode, then changed to the second intermediate mode, and then changed to the second completion mode. If a starting win occurs at a second timing after the first timing, the first hold display can be displayed in the first start mode, then changed to the first intermediate mode, and then changed to the first completed mode based on the start of the next variable display. If a starting win occurs at the second timing, the second hold display can be displayed in the second start mode, then changed to the second intermediate mode, and then changed to the second completed mode based on the start of the next variable display. If a starting win occurs at a third timing after the second timing, the first hold display can be displayed in the first completion mode without being displayed in the first start mode and the first intermediate mode. If a starting win occurs at the third timing, the second hold display can be displayed in the second completion mode without being displayed in the second start mode and the second intermediate mode. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
