Left plaque changes to 'FREE SPINS LEFT' with the current count in red (captured at 11). One gold, ornately-bordered MYSTERY medallion (with the carved '?' symbol) visible sticky on the board (reel 2, row 2 in this frame). Footer: 'WIN $4.00' / 'FREE SPINS LEFT 11'. The spin-speed button bottom-right shows a small red-outlined square icon during autoplay/feature-play instead of the usual looping-arrows icon.",

Five sticky gold MYSTERY medallions are visible simultaneously across the board (reel 2 row1, reel 2 row2, reel 4 row2, reel 5 row1, reel 5 row2, reel 6 row3 — exact count/positions vary by spin since Mystery symbols accumulate randomly), alongside regular symbols (A, K, panther, ring, 10, wolf).

    "screen_reader": "Control positions are stable across all screens: menu/sound icons far-left-bottom, 'i' info button just to their right, bet -/spin/+ clustered center-right-bottom, autoplay directly beneath spin. The info/rules booklet is a strictly linear 6-page sequence navigated with left/right triangle arrows and closed with a center 'X', with a 'Page N/6' indicator always in the bottom-right of the panel — a screen reader could announce this deterministically.",
    "motor": "All primary targets (SPIN, bet +/-, AUTOPLAY, MENU/SOUND/INFO icons, dialog confirm/cancel buttons) are large, well-separated circular or square touch targets. SPACE and ENTER keys can start/stop spins, and holding SPACE triggers Turbo Spin, giving a keyboard-only path that avoids repeated precise clicking. Autoplay (with an adjustable spin count up to at least 100 and a SKIP SCREENS option) further reduces the number of required interactions for extended play.",
    "color_blind": "Nearly all state is conveyed redundantly through non-color cues: royal symbols carry an explicit letter/number glyph in addition to color; the bonus-buy/autoplay dialogs use an X-glyph vs checkmark-glyph (not red/green alone) for cancel/confirm; the settings toggles use handle position (left/right) in addition to grey/green fill; the paytable nav arrows are differentiated by triangle-left/cross/triangle-right shape; the volatility rating is shown as a count of filled lightning-bolt icons (5/5) rather than a single color swatch; free-spin counters and win amounts are always large printed numbers, not color-coded indicators. Residual color-only cue: the MYSTERY symbol's gold medallion color/border is visually distinct from regular symbol cards mainly by its ornate gold circular design and central '?' glyph, which is itself a non-color (shape-based) cue, so this is considered adequately redundant.",
    "deaf_hard_of_hearing": "No information observed to be conveyed through audio alone; music and sound effects are decorative and independently toggleable (AMBIENT MUSIC / SOUND FX in System Settings). All game state (wins, free spins remaining, bet, credit, feature triggers, buy confirmation) is always shown as on-screen text."

Single feature family: Free Spins (fixed 12 spins, no retrigger) built entirely around a sticky, accumulating Mystery symbol that periodically mass-transforms into a shared random paying symbol — a recognizable PP mechanic variant, not a novel UI/engine. Everything observed is covered by familiar primitives (Scatter trigger, Mystery/transform, Buy Feature); no escalation needed."
