Accessibility

profile for all groups
Color Blind
  • Ante Bet toggle: green checkmark=ON vs grey arrow=OFF — icon shape distinguishes state without relying on color. Cancel/confirm buttons: X vs checkmark. Navigation: left-arrow, right-arrow, close-X are distinct shapes. Win amounts in text.
Screen Reader
  • All key values (RTP 96.53%, bets, payouts, win amounts, FREE SPINS LEFT counter) shown as numeric text on screen. Feature names FREE SPINS, BIG WIN, FREE SPINS COMPLETED, CATCHES are explicit text labels.
Motor Accessibility
  • AUTOPLAY supports selectable spin count via slider (up to 100 confirmed). SKIP SCREENS option auto-advances feature intro and outro screens. SPACE and ENTER keyboard keys are alternatives to mouse click for spinning.
Hearing Accessibility
  • Sound is optional; separate AMBIENT MUSIC and SOUND FX toggles in System Settings. BATTERY SAVER reduces animation speed. All feature outcomes shown in text: WIN amount, FREE SPINS LEFT counter, FREE SPINS COMPLETED label.
Low Vision
  • CREDIT shown in bright cyan on dark bottom bar; BET and WIN amounts in white/gold on dark backgrounds — high contrast. BIG WIN screen uses very large text. Feature names (FREE SPINS, BIG WIN) are prominently sized.

Data provenance

what we captured and what we didn't
Base game (normal and Ante Bet ON), paytable p1/7 (all 10 paying symbols with multipliers), rules pp2-7 (FS/MONEY/Ante/Buy/RTP/How-to-Play/Settings/Autoplay), settings modal, autoplay dialog, bonus buy dialog, free spins intro and active gameplay, win screen (BIG WIN $44.80 and FS completed $82.80)
FS retrigger gameplay (CATCHES meter requires 42 MONEY symbols across FS rounds) and HOT TUNA symbol appearing on reels — not triggered in captured session; RNG-dependent, no bonus buy path to retrigger
Scatter tease near-miss base-game mechanics (nudge respin and random extra SCATTER on 2-SCATTER results) — random events, not captured in session
Whether Tuna School also triggers standard line wins simultaneously during FS MONEY collection — rules state MONEY behavior but do not explicitly confirm dual line-win payout in FS; uncertain
