A gaming machine (60) has a symbol display arrangement (63L 63C, 63R) for variably displaying a plurality of symbols that is arranged to display a stop state when variation of the displayed symbols is stopped and to give a profit to a player when the stop state corresponds to a specific stop state; a predictive display arrangement (64) for performing predictive display whether the specific stop state is or is not be displayed when variation of the displayed symbols is stopped; a start device (70) for starting the variation of the displayed symbols in response to manipulation by a player; a stop device (71L, 71C, 71R) for stopping the variation of the displayed symbols in response to manipulation by a player, and a controller (201) for determining whether or not it is permitted to display of the specific stop state and for determining a predictive display mode based on the result of the determination, the controller (201) being arranged to control the predictive display arrangement (64) such that a likelihood of appearance of the specific stop state is changeable in conjunction with a change in the game resulting from the passage of time. Since a likelihood or a reliability of an appearance of the specific stop state is changeable with passage of time, the player can adjust his or her stop manipulation while confirming changes of the predictive display or expecting appearance of a known predictive display at the time of the player's manipulation. In addition, since the predictive display is performed by using symbols, the player can recognize information of the prediction precisely and an effective demonstration can variously be realized, thereby the fim of the entire game is enhanced. <IMAGE> |
