  "theme": "Autumn / Halloween-adjacent harvest-festival theme: a sunlit pumpkin farm populated by a cheerful pumpkin-headed scarecrow, a friendly squirrel, and a colorful beetle-like creature, decorated throughout with festival bunting flags.",
  "art_style": "Flat, brightly-lit 2D cartoon illustration with thick dark outlines and warm, saturated cel-shaded fills; no photorealism or dramatic/night lighting in the base game (a distinct cooler night-blue palette is used only for the Free Games backdrop). Cute, rounded, child-friendly character design (big googly eyes, soft proportions). Straight-on / slightly-elevated frontal camera angle typical of a fixed-reel casino slot, not an isometric or top-down view. Overall mood is cheerful and casual-mobile-game rather than eerie or cinematic, despite the pumpkin/scarecrow imagery.",
  "documentation_purpose": "Exhaustive accessibility documentation (blind/low-vision screen-reader users, deaf/hard-of-hearing, color-blind of all types, motor-impaired) built from 37 desktop screenshots (1280x800) + OCR/verbatim on-screen text + zoomed crops of every paying symbol and every interactive icon.",
  "method_notes": "All numeric fields (RTP, bet limits, jackpot seeds/contributions, build stamps) were read verbatim from the in-game 'Help' screen (rules_p6..rules_p21) rather than any third-party source, per the Habanero provider playbook. Symbol identities and payouts were read from zoomed paytable crops (paytable_p1..p3) and cross-checked against a live single-payline win frame (payout_basis_evidence.png). Wild-feature and free-games mechanics were verified against BOTH the booklet text (rules_p1..p3) and live captured gameplay frames (wild_feature_squirrel.png, wild_feature_crow.png, free_spins_trigger.png/_1/_summary). Currency glyph '‡' printed throughout the demo UI is the platform's demo-balance placeholder, not a real currency code, and is reproduced here exactly as shown rather than being interpreted.",

  "top_bar": "Wood-plank brown plaques with gold text; the jackpot readout sits in a blue denim-textured pill; bunting flags across the very top alternate orange, purple and green triangles on a thin brown string.",
  "bottom_control_bar": "Wood-grain brown pill-shaped buttons with gold/cream text and gold circular icon buttons with dark-brown outlines; the game's own toolbar sits just above a separate darker olive-green service strip that shows BALANCE/BET/clock/icons/the HABANERO wordmark.",
  "overlays": "Settings and Autoplay panels are near-black semi-transparent rounded rectangles with white/orange text; the paytable/rules booklet is a wood-framed rounded card layered over a blurred/dimmed version of the base-game background, with gold heading text and white/gold body text.",
  "accent_colors": "Gold/orange (headings, buttons, currency figures), green (positive banner text such as 'FEATURE TRIGGERED' and 'YOU HAVE WON', toggle-on switches, paytable-page background trim), purple/teal (scarecrow wardrobe, WILD-page hat), blue (jackpot plaque background, night free-spins sky)."

  "Identity of the second high-value symbol (paytable_p2.png): from the frames alone it is ambiguous - a round red-and-purple striped body with curly yellow-tipped antennae, a long orange beak and small legs, which reads as easily as a beetle as it does as a stylised bird. The booklet names none of the symbols (its Wild Feature page uses ICONS, not words - see rules_p1.png), so the frames cannot settle it. TL resolution from a second channel OUTSIDE the frames: the provider's own game page for SGPumpkinPatch says 'A Crow next to a Pumpkin expands all in the Pumpkins reel to Wilds', i.e. the studio calls this symbol a Crow. Documented as Crow, with the appearance described literally so a reader who sees a beetle is not misled.",
  "free_spins_summary.png shows 'FREE GAMES COLLECTED' at 0 right after an 8-free-game round, while the booklet (rules_p3.png) says the count resets to 8 at the end of the feature. TL narrowed this: the booklet ALSO says the corn count is saved SEPARATELY FOR EACH BET CONFIGURATION and starts on 8 for each - and the two frames are at different configurations (base_game.png at coin 0.50 / bet 12.50 shows 8; the summary is at coin 0.01 / bet 0.25). The summary frame is also captured before the round is dismissed, so the most likely reading is a transient pre-reset state on a counter that is per-configuration. Still not asserted as fact: no frame was captured after the return to base game at that same bet configuration.",
  "Whether the MINOR/GRAND jackpot label alternates on a timer, on each spin, or by some other rule was not determined - both labels were observed across different frames in the same session, but the exact switching trigger/interval is not documented anywhere in the booklet or Help screen.",
  "Per-cell content of any base-game reel snapshot is a random, transient outcome of that particular spin and is intentionally not enumerated as a fixed game property."
