Gaming machine capable of moving at least one visual recognition target in a top box
View Patent ↗A gaming machine includes a symbol display device, a top box, and a controller. The symbol display device is capable of variably displaying and then rearranging a plurality of symbols. The top box is disposed at an upper part of the symbol display device and has an illumination target disposed on a front face and a plurality of visual recognition targets disposed therein. The controller is programmed to: variably display and then rearrange symbols on the symbol display device to thereby execute a normal game; execute an animation character acquisition game for acquiring a specific animation character from among a plurality of animation characters in accordance with specific symbols being rearranged in the normal game; and move at least one visual recognition target from among the plurality of visual recognition targets, based on a result of the animation character acquisition game. This configuration enables a player to be given notice in a mode of moving a visual recognition target in the top box. Thus, it is possible to impart a sense of expectation or a sense of tension to a player and to pay the player's attention exclusively to a game.
1. A gaming machine, comprising:
a plurality of light emitter groups, each of which is comprised of a plurality of light emitters, a color lit up by any one of the light emitter groups being different from a color lit up by others of the light emitter groups;
a memory in which a payment for each of the plurality of light emitters is specified; and
a controller which is programmed to execute processing including:
(1-1) performing first lottery processing for determining one light emitter group from among the plurality of light emitter groups;
(1-2) selecting the one light emitter group from among the plurality of light emitter groups by executing the processing of (1-1);
(1-3) after the processing of (1-2), determining, by second lottery processing, one light emitter from among the plurality of light emitters configuring the one light emitter group that has been selected in the processing of (1-2) by the processing of (1-1); and
(1-4) awarding a payment corresponding to the one light emitter that has been determined in the processing of (1-3).
2. A gaming machine, comprising:
a plurality of light emitter groups, each of which is comprised of a plurality of light emitters;
a memory in which a payment for each of the plurality of light emitters is specified; and
a controller which is programmed to execute processing including:
(1-1) performing first lottery processing for determining one light emitter group from among the plurality of light emitter groups;
(1-2) selecting the one light emitter group from among the plurality of light emitter groups by executing the processing of (1-1);
(1-3) after the processing of (1-2), determining, by second lottery processing, one light emitter from among the plurality of light emitters configuring the one light emitter group that has been selected in the processing of (1-2) by the processing of (1-1); and
(1-4) awarding a payment corresponding to the one light emitter that has been determined in the processing of (1-3), wherein
the controller executes, between the processing of (1-2) and the processing of (1-3), processing of (2-1) to processing of (2-6) given below:
(2-1) selecting one light emitter group from among the plurality of light emitter groups, as a light emitter group for lighting up;
(2-2) lighting up a plurality of light emitters configuring the light emitter group for lighting up;
(2-3) lighting out the plurality of light emitters that have lighted up in the processing of (2-2);
(2-4) from among the plurality of light emitter groups, newly selecting a light emitter group which is adjacent to the selected light emitter group, as a light emitter group for lighting up;
(2-5) repeatedly executing the processing of (2-2) to the processing of (2-4) up to a predetermined number of times; and
(2-6) subsequent to the processing of (2-5), lighting up the one light emitter group that has been selected in the processing of (1-2).
