Primary source of truth for all text in this document is direct full-resolution visual reading of the frames plus scripts/zoom.py crops (paytable rows, WILD icon row, jackpot ladder, 9-line mini-diagrams, corner buttons, multiplier ladder), cross-checked against the OCR text that did come through.

The active multiplier is marked by size/position/brightness (large, centered, solid-white) versus the other five values (small, dim outline) - contrast- and size-based, not hue-based, so it remains legible for all color-blind types. The two WILD lightning-bolt colors (red vs. blue) are the one place color carries information (which jackpot tier they count toward), but each also has distinct label text and position in the always-visible jackpot ladder, and their shapes/coin backgrounds are otherwise identical - a deuteranope/protanope may struggle to tell red-bolt from blue-bolt WILDs apart by color alone in-reel; this is a residual accessibility risk worth flagging to the game owner."
