To provide a game machine that includes a variable display device for displaying a variable display game that variably displays multiple pieces of identification information when a game ball enters a start pocket and that generates a special game state which gives a game value to a game player when the result of the variable display game becomes a predetermined special result, while allowing the player to continue the game with expectation without losing his or her interest due to a result of lottery.

A notification status control means (rendering control device 300) generates a non-notification state that does not clearly notify the player of a probability state in the game machine, regardless of the result of a lottery by a lottery means (game control device 100), in a predetermined period. In addition, if the predetermined period ends, a notification state for clearly notifying the player of the probability state in the game machine can be generated.
