The expanding wild character is 'Spartacus', a heroic gladiator shown either as a golden-helmeted portrait (paytable) or as a bare-chested muscular gladiator figure wearing a plumed bronze/gold helmet and red cape (in-game expanded art).",

Given the rules state 'Only one EXPANDING WILD symbol can hit at a time', this is most likely a single expand-in-progress animation captured mid-transition (the small icon growing into the full character art, with the multiplier text re-rendering), rather than two simultaneous independent WILD symbols. The exact reel/row assignment of each label element in that specific frame could not be pinned down with certainty from a single static capture.",

    "The exact visual pattern of each of the 15 individual paylines (diagram on rules page 4) was not transcribed cell-by-cell; the diagram shows 15 small numbered 5x3-style glyphs that were legible as a set but too small to trace each line's exact path with certainty at normal zoom.",
