    "theme": "Sports-equipment 'ball matching' instant game: no narrative or characters, just a row of five randomly-selected sports balls (basketball, tennis ball, billiard 8-ball, soccer/football ball, volleyball, baseball, bowling ball) that must match to pay out. Pure object/iconography theme, not a story-driven slot.",
    "art_style": "Flat-shaded UI shell around glossy, softly-lit 3D-rendered vector icons of sports balls (studio-style specular highlight and gentle gradient shading, not photorealistic materials, no dramatic or cinematic lighting). Straight-on frontal camera on the reel row, no perspective/isometry. Panels are dark charcoal rounded rectangles with thin pale-teal outlines over a smooth diagonal gradient background (teal-green to purple to warm orange) with soft blurred colour blobs. No characters, no environment art, no dark/moody atmosphere; casual, clean mobile-casino look with bright accent gradients on buttons.",
    "documentation_purpose": "Exhaustive accessibility documentation (blind/low-vision, deaf/hard-of-hearing, color-blind of all types, motor-impaired) built from 13 desktop screenshots (1280x800), OCR ground truth and zoomed crops.",
    "method_notes": "All numeric claims are read directly off the captured frames (rules panel accordion pages, in-game paytable ladder, Limits dialog, balance field) or measured by the balance change across a played round. Nothing not visible on the accepted 13 frames is asserted as fact; ambiguous items are listed in 'unreadable_or_uncertain'.",

    "summary": "Instant-win 'match' game, not a spinning reel slot despite the visual similarity. Player sets a bet, presses 'Bet', and five random balls instantly resolve in a single horizontal row of 5 columns. Payout is decided purely by the pattern of repeated ball types among those 5 results (see 'paytable'). There is no cash-out, no growing multiplier, and no skill/decision step after the bet is placed.",
    "decorative_reel_strip": "Half-height ball tiles are rendered above and below the active row on every frame (e.g. base_game.png, win_screen.png, autoplay.png, settings.png). This is a cosmetic vertical 'reel-strip' animation artifact left over from a slot-style visual template — it is NOT a second or third payline and carries no separate result; only the fully-lit, bordered middle row is the round's outcome.",
    "bet_flow": "Bet Amount field (with an info tooltip icon) plus 'min' / '-' / '+' / 'max' quick-adjust buttons; pressing 'Bet' instantly resolves the round and updates Balance, 'Profit' and 'Chance' readouts under the paytable ladder.",

All 7 observed ball types are worth exactly the same — none is a 'high' or 'low' symbol. Values read verbatim from the in-game ladder on the left of base_game.png and confirmed by the identical prose list under Rules -> Game Details -> Combinations (rules_p3.png), which states 'Ball & Ball has RTP 97.0%' in the same section.",

    "circle_indicator_note": "The pip row next to each multiplier uses three greyscale states (solid light-grey fill / dark near-black empty / grey ring with dark center) to abstractly represent the required grouping — the states are shape/fill based, not colour based, so the ladder itself is colorblind-safe without relying on the printed multiplier text."
