Abstract

A video game machine has a mechanism extracting balls, a display unit having a display area which displays a matrix composed of boxes, and a CPU. The CPU implements a function enabling the player to appoint a ball type in terms of color and number to boxes of a second line of the matrix. A function is provided for automatically displaying, in the first and third lines of the matrix, ball marks correlated to the ball marks displayed in the second line, such that the color sequences of the ball marks in the first and third lines are the same as that in the second line and such that numerals greater and smaller by one than a numeral in a box of the second line appear in the third and the first lines in each column of the matrix. Further provided is a function for determining whether or not the numeral of the extracted ball coincides with the numeral of any ball mark on the display and a function for changing the mode of display of the box having the coincident numeral. Also provided is a function for determining whether any line, column or oblique diagonal line of the matrix is completed by boxes displayed in the changed display mode. Finally, a function is implemented for instructing the machine to pay medals when any line is completed.
