摘要:
A gaming machine includes: a plurality of gaming terminals, a shared display, and a plurality of routs. Each of the gaming terminals has first light emitting portions which provide an effect to a game. Further, each of the gaming terminal runs a base game and a special game configured to award a special payout. Each of the routs is formed by arranging second light emitting portions from associated one of the gaming terminal to the shared display. The gaming machine thus structured executes a playing method including the steps of: every time a gaming terminal achieves a predetermined winning in the special game, (i) blinking a predetermined number of second light emitting portions forming a rout associated with that gaming terminal sequentially from the one closest to that gaming terminal, the predetermined number being determined based on the winning having been achieved, and (ii) blinking the first light emitting portions of that gaming terminal in sync with the second light emitting portions; and awarding a special payout to a gaming terminal whose associated rout has all its second light emitting portions being activated up to the shared display.
