  "name": "Golden Unicorn Deluxe",

  "in_game_wordmark": "GOLDEN UNICORN DELUXE (two-line banner: 'GOLDEN UNICORN' in gold serif letters on a dark-red ribbon plaque, 'DELUXE' in smaller gold letters directly below it, on base_game.png / all bonus and feature screens). Catalog name and in-game wordmark AGREE for this title -- no discrepancy to record (contrast with Plinko 1000, wave 177, where they diverged).",
  "theme": "Whimsical fairy-tale forest inhabited by a golden unicorn, a silver/white unicorn, a princess, a floating sky palace and a magic treasure chest.",
  "art_style": "Painterly 2D illustrated fantasy-cartoon style with soft airbrush-style gradient shading, glossy specular highlights and drop shadows on every symbol (not flat cel-shaded, not photoreal 3D). Warm golden-hour lighting; background is a lavender/pink blossoming forest clearing seen in soft focus behind the reels. The reel frame is sculpted gold metal with a carved unicorn head (looking outward, spiral horn, flowing mane) as a finial on each side of the frame, and a dark-red ribbon banner across the top carrying the game title. Playing-card symbols (A/K/Q/J) are rendered as ornate gilded illuminated-manuscript letters with jewel-toned fills and a decorative flourish at the base, not plain typographic letters. Camera is a static frontal view straight onto the 5x3 reel grid (no isometric or top-down angle). Overall mood is bright, cheerful, family-friendly fantasy -- not dark or gritty. Feature screens (Free Games win, Big Win) shift the background to a deep indigo night sky with sparkle/firefly particles and gold coin-shower VFX, while the base game and Chest Feature keep the warm daytime forest palette.",

Round 1 (bet level 1, coin ‡0.20) paid ‡24.00 and ‡2.00 -- consistent with tiers X120 and X10, but at bet level 1 the quantity 'bet level x coin' EQUALS the coin denomination, so that round could not tell the two readings apart. Round 2 was played specifically to separate them (frame bonus_chest_level2.png, Chest bought for ‡150.40 at bet level 2 / coin ‡0.20 / total bet ‡10.00, feature multiplier x1): the first chest paid ‡4.00. Multiplying the tiers by the COIN DENOMINATION alone yields 2.00, 5.00, 10.00, 24.00, 40.00 ... -- no tier produces 4.00. Multiplying by BET LEVEL x COIN (= 2 x 0.20 = 0.40) yields X10 x 0.40 = 4.00 exactly. CONCLUSION: the booklet wording is literal and correct -- a chest cash prize is printed_tier x bet_level x coin_denomination (i.e. tier x the per-line stake), then multiplied by the feature multiplier.
