Green Bavarian-hop-garden background with decorative grapevine/hop-vine borders (orange-yellow hop flowers and green hop cones on the left edge, dark-purple grape clusters with small warm-gold fairy lights on the right edge). During Free Spins the same border art appears on a dark night-purple/violet backdrop with the fairy lights glowing. Confirmed by rules_p1.png text: \"The slot is devoted to Oktoberfest. You will feel being in the center of the largest beer festival, with the symbols falling in a cascading manner and illustrating different kinds of beer jugs and glasses.\"",

Several zoomed crops were taken to define clean logo_refs boxes (pretzel scatter, multiplier barrel, beer stein) with no title/wordmark text inside them. Numbers not directly legible are listed in 'unreadable_or_uncertain' and not invented.",

There are no paylines and no 'ways' arithmetic in this game — rules_p1.png states explicitly: 'Symbols in the slot pay anywhere on the screen, and the amount of win in one spin depends on the number of the same symbols on the screen.'",
    "cascades_refilling": "Base mechanic is a cascading 'Refilling' feature (rules_p4.png/p5.png, verbatim): after every spin all winning combinations are paid and the winning symbols disappear; remaining symbols fall to the bottom and empty cells refill from above; this repeats with no cap ('There's no limit to the number of possible Refills') until a refill produces no further winning combination. All wins from a base spin's whole refill chain are added to the balance only after the chain finishes. This is a built-in mechanic, not a purchasable/optional feature.",

    "color_blind": "Most state changes are backed by a non-color cue in addition to color: the Chance x2 toggle changes handle POSITION as well as color; the disabled Buy Spin/Bonus button is also darker/less saturated (brightness cue) in addition to being muted-green rather than bright-green; the Spin-button star icon (Chance x2 active) is a SHAPE cue; bet-limit arrows use greyed-out brightness plus stopped movement, not hue, to signal a disabled state; free-spins vs base-game is signalled by explicit text ('Free spins: n/10', 'BONUS ACTIVE') in addition to the purple/green palette shift. Residual risk: the win-tier badges (e.g. cherries win, watermelon win) rely on small icon shapes at fairly small size during fast cascades, which may be hard to distinguish quickly for some low-vision users, though each is paired with a legible printed count and value.",

Not invented; the aggregation RULE itself (sum-then-multiply-once) is confirmed verbatim from rules_p8.png and is not in doubt, only this one frame's exact intermediate arithmetic.",
    "The 5th Autospin advanced stop-condition, 'if cash balance decreases by...' (present in the rules_p3.png text), is not visible in the captured autoplay_advanced.png frame, which appears to be scrolled/sized to show only the first 4 conditions; presumed reachable by further scrolling of that popup, but not directly verified on a screenshot.",
