The base game uses a warm maroon/dark-red reel background inside a gold Chinese-temple frame; free spins shift to a deep indigo/purple night sky; the Money Respin feature uses a teal/blue lotus-pond background.",

RESIDUAL RISK identified: the 'CHOOSE A CHEST' mini-game (money_respin_chest.png) differentiates its 3 chest choices ONLY by color (blue/red/green) with no shape/pattern/number difference - a color-blind player would need to rely on left/middle/right position rather than any accessible visual cue to distinguish them (though since all 3 award a random 1-3 extra respins with no stated difference in outcome odds tied to a specific chest, this may not affect fairness, only visual identification).",
