GAME PLAYING MACHINE

The fun by foretelling dramatics is heightened by varying the execution timing of foretelling dramatics, the load on the control system of when the foretelling dramatics is executed, and the amount of information on the foretelling dramatics is increased. Under a conventional control, if the operation interval time t<SUB>int.</SUB> of a start lever (354) does not reach a preset reference time t<SUB>ref.</SUB>, the drive of the reel is delayed until the operation interval time t<SUB>int.</SUB> reaches the reference time t<SUB>ref.</SUB>. Under such a conventional control, it is determined by, e.g., drawing whether the execution timing of the foretelling is made the operation time of the start lever (354) (that is, the foretelling is not delayed) or made the drive time of the reel (that is, the foretelling is also delayed). With this, when an expectation value of foretelling is set, not only the type of foretelling but also the foretelling timing can be added as a parameter, and the variations of foretelling can be increased. For example, even if the foretelling is of the same type, the player concentrates the player's attention not only at the foretelling but also at its execution timing by making the expectation value of when the foretelling is delayed different from that of when the foretelling is not delayed. As a result, the fun of the game can be enhanced.
