Abstract: The present invention includes: a reel display module that changingly displays multiple types of symbols in multiple regions and also statically displays these changingly displayed symbols in these regions; measuring modules for measuring or storing modules for storing the number of times a special symbol, which is a symbol selected out of these symbols, is displayed in a changing manner and/or a static manner; and a game points evaluation module determining game points to be awarded to the player. The present invention increases a player's curiosity and anticipation for a game.

Abstract: A game machine includes a monitor, a comparator and an adjuster. The monitor monitors a difference between the amount of game value inserted and the amount of game value paid. The comparator compares the difference with a preset reference value. The adjuster extends a game time of a game performed on the monitor when a result of the comparison that the difference is greater than the reference value is determined by the comparator.

Abstract: A multi-station game machine, includes a plurality of reels, each reel having a plurality of symbols, and the reels spinning horizontally around a vertical axis. The reels are arranged coaxially in the vertical direction. Each of the reels has a circumferential length which enables at least two players to play a game on the game machine simultaneously.

Abstract: A game machine includes, an operating portion, a signal detector, a prompter, a determination receiver and a speed changer. The operating portion outputs a signal in accordance with a player's operation for proceeding a game. The signal detector detects either a consecutive signal within a predetermined period of time or an intermittent signal within a predetermined period of time from the operating portion. The prompter prompts a player to determine whether to change a speed of progress in the game when either the consecutive signal or the intermittent signal is detected. The determination receiver receives a player's determination regarding the change of the speed of progress in the game. The speed changer changes the speed of progress in the game in accordance with the player's determination when the player's determination is received.

Abstract: Each of a plurality of reels is provided with a plurality of symbols including at least one special symbol. At least one payline is extending across the reels. At least one electro-optical panel includes a first transparent substrate and a second transparent substrate which sandwiches an electro-optical substance therebetween. At least one of the first transparent substrate and the second transparent substrate is formed with at least one bored portion having a shape substantially coincident with an contour of the special symbol, the electro-optical panel disposed in front of each of the reels such that the bored portion is placed on the payline. A controller controls a state of the electro-optical substance in accordance with a predetermined rule to adjust a transparency of the electro-optical panel.

Abstract: A game machine is provided in which a game starts by inputting the numerical data, which corresponds to some monetary value, The game machine includes a data input module which registers the numerical data, a main memory which stores the numerical data and outputs the stored numerical data at least to the data input module, and a sub-memory which stores the numerical data and outputs the numerical data to the outside the game machine system as well as to the main memory.
