Gaming machine
A gaming machine includes plural stations and a processor. Each station can determine a game result and execute a game independently. The processor accepts each station's entry to an event game when a predetermined condition is satisfied. There is collected an entry fee depending on a contribution degree of a station whose entry to the event game has been accepted. Then, there is executed the event game in common at each station whose entry to the event game has been accepted.
1. A gaming machine comprising:
plural stations each of which determines a game result and executes a game independently; and
a processor which executes:
(a) a process to execute a base game independently at each station;
(b) a process to obtain each station's contribution degree based on gaming value amount used at each station for a base game, with the contribution degree being set higher as the total amount of gaming value used at the base game increases;
(c) a process to accept each station's entry to an event game executed in common to the plural stations when a predetermined condition is satisfied;
(d) a process to collect an entry fee depending on the contribution degree in exchange for an entry to the event game from a station of which entry to the event game has been accepted, with the entry fee to be collected being set lower at a station where the contribution degree is set higher; and
(e) a process to execute the event game in a station of which entry fee has been collected,
wherein the gaming machine further comprises a first table that associates plural ranks of contribution degree with plural ranges of gaming value amount used at each station and a second table that associates plural ranks of contribution degree with plural amounts of entry fee, and
wherein the process executes:
(α) a process to specify a rank of contribution degree associated with gaming value amount used at each station by referring to first table, with respect to each station of which entry to the event game has been accepted; and
(β) a process to determine an amount of entry fee of each station of which entry to the event game has been accepted in accordance with the rank of contribution degree specified at (α) and the second table.
2. The gaming machine according to claim 1 , wherein the processor executes a process to accept each station's entry to the event game when stations equal to or more than a predetermined number are executing base games among the plural stations.
3. A gaming machine comprising:
plural stations each of which determines a game result and executes a game independently; and
a processor which executes:
(a) a process to execute a base game independently at each station;
(b) a process to obtain each station's contribution degree based on gaming value amount used at each station for a base game, with the contribution degree being set higher as the total amount of gaming value used at the base game increases;
(c) a process to accept each station's entry to an event game executed in common to the plural stations when a predetermined condition is satisfied;
(d) a process to collect an entry fee depending on the contribution degree in exchange for an entry to the event game from a station of which entry to the event game has been accepted, with the entry fee to be collected being set lower at a station where the contribution degree is set higher;
(e) a process to execute the event game in a station of which entry fee has been collected; and
(f) a process to award a prize to each station participated to the event game based on an event game result when the event game is finished,
wherein the gaming machine further comprises a first table that associates plural ranks of contribution degree with plural ranges of gaming value amount used at each station and a second table that associates plural ranks of contribution degree with plural amounts of entry fee, and
wherein the process executes:
(α) a process to specify a rank of contribution degree associated with gaming value amount used at each station by referring to first table, with respect to each station of which entry to the event game has been accepted; and
(β) a process to determine an amount of entry fee of each station of which entry to the event game has been accepted in accordance with the rank of contribution degree specified at (a) and the second table.
4. The gaming machine according to claim 3 , wherein the processor executes a process to accept each station's entry to the event game when stations equal to or more than a predetermined number are executing base games among the plural stations.
5. A gaming machine comprising:
plural stations each of which determines a game result and executes a game independently; and
a processor which executes:
(a) a process to execute a base game independently at each station;
(b) a process to obtain each station's contribution degree based on gaming value amount used at each station for a base game, with the contribution degree being set higher as the total amount of gaming value used at the base game increases;
(c) a process to accept each station's entry to an event game executed in common to the plural stations when a predetermined condition is satisfied;
(d) a process to collect an entry fee depending on the contribution degree in exchange for an entry to the event game from a station of which entry to the event game has been accepted, with the entry fee to be collected being set lower at a station where the contribution degree is set higher and the entry fee collected at each station being accumulatively added as part of a payout amount of the event game, the predetermined condition of process (c) being satisfied when the payout amount of the event game including the entry fees collected at each station and currently accumulated exceeds a predetermined amount; and
(e) a process to execute the event game in a station of which entry fee has been collected,
wherein the gaming machine further comprises a first table that associates plural ranks of contribution degree with plural ranges of gaming value amount used at each station and a second table that associates plural ranks of contribution degree with plural amounts of entry fee, and
wherein the process executes:
(α) a process to specify a rank of contribution degree associated with gaming value amount used at each station by referring to first table, with respect to each station of which entry to the event game has been accepted; and
(β) a process to determine an amount of entry fee of each station of which entry to the event game has been accepted in accordance with the rank of contribution degree specified at (a) and the second table.
