PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a player from changing to a probable change state over a long period of time by not knowing when a special game state is generated in a gaming machine that performs variable display of symbols on a plurality of variable display devices. Sustain the expectation of the transition. An effect control microcomputer 101 determines, based on the contents of a variation pattern command, whether or not to execute a re-lottery effect before the start of the big hit game based on the variation pattern of the decorative pattern. Based on the determined variation pattern, one of the variable display devices 9a and 9b performs variation of the decorative design. Further, based on the content of the ending command, a re-lottery effect is executed after the end of the big hit game. When the re-lottery effect is executed after the end of the big hit game, the re-lottery effect before the start of the big hit game is controlled so that the probability variation symbol is not derived and displayed as the big hit symbol.
