Large red 3D text 'CONGRATULATIONS!' with a gold outline at the top; green 3D text 'YOU HAVE WON' below; the amount '$9.60' in cream/white text on a green bamboo-bordered plaque; green text 'IN 8 FREE SPINS' (the number '8' in white); yellow/orange text 'PRESS ANYWHERE TO CONTINUE' at the bottom. Footer shows 'CREDIT $99,995.80', 'BET $2.00' and 'WIN $9.60'.",
      "base_game_win": "win_screen.png: an ordinary base-game spin result, navy-blue-tinted reels (this frame was captured shortly after the free-spins feature, background not yet reverted to the red day palette) showing letter J/Q/bonsai on reel 1, guardian lion/A/bonsai on reel 2, three stacked panda WILDs on reel 3, a lit gold BONUS symbol and letter A/Q on reel 4, and a lit gold BONUS symbol with a GOLDEN letter-Q medallion (red circle, gold-embossed 'Q') and letter K on reel 5. 'WIN $1.20' shown bottom-center. Only 2 BONUS symbols are present on screen (reels 4 and 5) — one short of the 3 needed to trigger free spins.",

    "screen_reader": "Bottom-bar control positions are stable across all screens: menu (hamburger) and sound speaker stacked at far left, a separate 'i' information button, CREDIT/BET labels centre-left, bet -/+ flanking the large central SPIN button, AUTOPLAY button just below SPIN. The rules/info booklet is a strictly linear 8-page sequence navigated with ◄ / X(close) / ► at the bottom-left of the panel and a 'Page n/8' counter at bottom-right.",
    "motor": "Large circular click targets (SPIN, bet +/-, menu, sound, info). SPACE and ENTER also start/stop the spin, reducing the need for precise pointer targeting. Autoplay (with a selectable spin count and a SKIP SCREENS option) further reduces required interactions.",
    "color_blind": "Most affordances use non-colour cues: navigation icons are distinguished by triangle/cross shape, toggle switches by knob position, checkboxes by a checkmark glyph, and every letter/picture symbol is distinguishable by its own glyph/artwork regardless of colour. The three jackpot tiers (MAJOR/GRAND/MINOR) are each colour-coded (green/red/blue) AND explicitly labelled with text AND kept in a fixed left-to-right screen position, so colour is never the only cue. Residual note: the 'golden' reel-5 symbol variants rely on a colour/tone shift (gold tint) as their primary visual distinguishing feature versus the normal-coloured version of the same symbol; shape/silhouette for picture symbols stays identical, so a colour-blind player may find it harder to tell a normal vs golden picture symbol apart at a glance (letters are easier, since the golden letter uses a different red-medallion shape, not just a colour change).",
    "deaf_hard_of_hearing": "No audio-only information was observed; AMBIENT MUSIC and SOUND FX are decorative toggles in Settings. All game state (win amounts, free spins remaining, jackpot values, feature triggers) is conveyed through on-screen text and imagery."

  "not_captured": [
    "A GRAND, MAJOR or MINOR fixed-jackpot win was not captured on any screenshot. This is a rare RNG-dependent outcome (5-of-a-kind on a payline with a golden symbol on reel 5, with the additional wild/no-wild condition per tier) and the game has no bonus-buy option to force it. Roughly 130 spins were played in the capture session without one occurring. The jackpot mechanic itself is fully documented above from the in-game rules pages (rules_p3.png, rules_p4.png)."
  ],

  "unreadable_or_uncertain": [
    "Whether the fixed jackpots (GRAND/MAJOR/MINOR) can be triggered during the base game, or only during the FREE SPINS FEATURE: the captured rules text explicitly states only 'JACKPOT FEATURE is available during the FREE SPINS FEATURE'; the jackpot meters are visually present above the reels in both base-game and free-spins screenshots, but no captured screen explicitly confirms base-game eligibility.",
    "Whether, at the end of a free spin, ALL on-screen 'mystery lantern' symbols transform into the SAME single randomly-chosen symbol, or each lantern transforms independently/randomly into its own symbol. The rule text ('all ... transform into one of the following symbols randomly') is ambiguous on this point and no captured frame shows the moment of transformation.",
    "The precise nature of 'Special reels are in play during the FREE SPINS FEATURE' — no captured screen elaborates beyond the stacked lantern symbol behaviour already described.",
    "A headline max-win multiplier (e.g. 'WIN OVER Nx BET') was not present on the preview screen or anywhere else captured; not stated whether one exists in the full game rules beyond what was shown.",
    "Exact RGB/hex values are intentionally not given; all colors are described in words per documentation policy.",
    "paytable_p2.png (present in the screenshots folder but not part of the 17-file manifest) is pixel-identical to rules_p2.png; both were treated as a single source screen (page 2/8) rather than two distinct screens."
