Abstract: A magnetic sensor is able to detect a magnetic field applied from a position detecting magnet that makes relative movement as an optical reflector is rotated. Rotation of the optical reflector enables the position detecting magnet to pass through a reference position where a rotation axis, a center or approximate center of the magnetic sensor, and a center or approximate center of the position detecting magnet are located in order on a straight line, as seen in the axial direction of the rotation axis. The magnetic sensor is in an XZ plane that includes a magnetization direction passing through the center or approximate center of the position detecting magnet located at the reference position, and the axial direction of the rotation axis.

Abstract: To provide a gaming machine that can provide a novel game in which the game progression is varied, a method, and a program for providing a game. In the gaming machine 1, the symbol blocks B1 and B2 displayed in the block display region 66 move in the directions D1 and D2, which intersect in the direction of reel rotation, when moving in the symbol display region 60. That is, the symbol blocks B1 and B2 are added to the movement in the direction of reel rotation, and also move in a direction orthogonal to the direction of reel rotation. Therefore, compared to a case in which a symbol block moves in the direction of reel rotation, prediction by a player of the positions where the symbol blocks B1 and B2 are finally disposed is difficult.
