Abstract
A second display section of a second display device is movable from an initial position to an end position. Upon starting the game, a first display device displays the symbols in motion and thereafter displays the stop symbols. Subsequently, the second display section displays the symbols in motion and displays the stop symbol. In some cases, the second display device moves. Even when there is no winning symbol combination, the player can win in accordance with the symbol combination of the first display device and the second display section. When the winning symbol combination appears after the second display section moves, the player wins the game.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A game machine comprising:
a first display device having plural first display sections to display symbols in motion and to display a stop symbol; a second display device having at least one second display section to display said symbols in motion and to display said stop symbol; a move device for moving said second display section around said first display device; and a winning determine section for determining the win or the loss based on the combinations of said stop symbols on winning lines, said winning line comprising a first line consisting of said first display sections being arranged in line and a second line consisting of said first display sections and said second display section in line.
2 . A game machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said first display sections are arranged in a matrix.
3 . A game machine as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising
a rotation display determine section for determining whether to display said symbols of said second display section in motion.
4 . A game machine as claimed in claim 1 , said move device comprising:
a holder; a drive motor attached to one end of said holder; a first pulley attached to a drive shaft of said drive motor; a second pulley attached to other end of said holder; and a belt wound around said first pulley and said second pulley, said second display section being attached to said belt.
5 . A game machine as claimed in claim 4 , further comprising:
a move position determine section for determining the position of movement of said second display section; and means for detecting the position of movement of said second display section based on the number of pulse signal outputting to said drive motor.
6 . A game machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said second display section is movable in a first direction along said first display device and a second direction opposite to said first direction.
7 . A game machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said first display section is composed of a LCD device or a mechanical reel.
8 . A game machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said second display section is composed of a LCD device or a mechanical reel.
9 . A game machine comprising:
a display device having plural first display areas to display symbols in motion and to display a stop symbol and at least one second display area, said second display area moving along said first display areas; and a winning determine section for determining the win or the loss based on the combinations of said stop symbols on winning lines, said winning line comprising a first line consisting of said first display areas being arranged in line and a second line consisting of said first display areas and said second display area in line.
10 . A game machine as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising a rotation display determine section for determining whether to display said symbols of each second display area in motion.
11 . A game machine as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising a move position determine section for determining the position of movement of said second display area.Cited by (0)
