Abstract
A gaming machine includes plural stations and a processor. Each station can determine a game result and execute a game independently. When executing a base game, the processor accepts a gaming value betting and updates used credit information. The processor executes an event game involving plural stations when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The processor awards an event game payout to a station which has achieved the best game result, based on the event game result. In awarding the event game payout, the processor changes a content of the event game payout based on the used credit information of the station.

- (c) a process to accept each station's entry to an event game executed in common to plural stations when a predetermined condition is satisfied;
- (d) a process to execute the event game in plural stations of which entries to the event game have been accepted;
- (e) a process to specify a content of a special prize to each station based on a game result of each station that has participated in the event game;
- (f) a process to change and determine the content of the special prize to each station based on gaming value amount used at each station for a base game;
