PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enhance an interest in pachinko game by a method wherein once a big hit occurs, and even if such state comes to an end, the pattern of a special pattern variation indicator is varied frequently so as to allow a big hit to be easily produced again. SOLUTION: In the pachinko machine, there are provided, on a game board, pass gates 20, 21, an ordinary pattern variation indicator 22, a motor-operated open/closure winning port 23, a special pattern variation indicator 25, and a motor-operated open/closure big hit port 26. If a shot ball passes through the pass gates, an indicated pattern of the indicator 22 is varied and every time a predetermined pattern stops, the port 23 is opened for a short time, and if a shot ball enters the port 23, a plurality of patterns indicated on the indictor 25 are varied and if predetermined patterns are aligned, a big hit state is generated, and the port 26 is opened so that a large number of balls are allowed to obtain prizes at a time. After the big hit state comes to an end, the open time of the port 23 is extended until a predetermined time period has passed to allow balls to easily enter the port 23 and the patterns of the indicator 25 are varied frequently. |
