Abstract
A gaming machine comprises a terminal device which runs a game, and a storage device which stores a point value generated in games run in the terminal device and a game play count. The gaming machine stores, in a game play count storage area, a total game play count incremented in each game; accumulatively stores a portion of a total point value in a first storage area; accumulatively stores the remaining portion of the total point value in a second storage area of the storage device; adds the point value stored in the first storage area to the point value stored in the second storage area, when the total game play count reaches a certain value; and awards a benefit to the terminal device, when a total point value stored in the second storage area reaches a certain value.
