Roman Empire

  "name": "Roman Empire",
  "provider": "Habanero",
  "theme": "Ancient Rome / Roman Empire: gladiator-era imperial iconography (the Colosseum, an emperor's coin, an Egyptian queen, a legionary's helmet and shield, a silver fruit bowl). The reels sit inside a carved sandstone-and-gold frame in front of a large photographic image of the Colosseum's tiered arches.",
  "art_style": "Semi-realistic / painterly digital rendering rather than flat cartoon: the Colosseum scatter symbol is a treated photograph, the coin and helmet symbols are 3D-shaded metallic objects with specular highlights and engraved detail, and the card-rank symbols (A, K, Q, J, 10, 9) are rendered as chunky 3D letters/numerals textured with colored gemstone or mosaic-like facets and outlined in gold. Camera is a fixed frontal view of the reel grid (classic reel-slot framing, no isometric or top-down perspective). Lighting is moody and atmospheric: the base game is lit at night under a starry sky with warm torch-like highlights on the stone frame, while the free-spins background switches to a bright, clear blue daytime sky behind the same Colosseum ruins. Overall mood is epic/dramatic and historical rather than cheerful or cartoonish, consistent with a classic desktop video slot rather than a mobile-casual game.",
  "documentation_purpose": "Exhaustive accessibility documentation (blind/low-vision screen-reader users, deaf/hard-of-hearing users, color-blind users of all types, motor-impaired users) built from 28 desktop screenshots (1280x800), OCR/DOM text of the Help screen and paytable booklet, and pixel-level zoomed crops of every symbol.",
  "method_notes": "Symbol identities and payouts were read from zoomed crops of the 'i' paytable booklet (paytable_p1..p5, rules_p1..p2 continuation) at the anchor bet ‡0.25 (COIN 0.01, BET LEVEL 1, 25 LINES). All scalar numbers (RTP, bet limits, coin/level ladders, jackpot contributions, paylines) come from the in-game 'Help' screen (rules_p3..rules_p13), which is plain HTML text, not OCR-guessed. Nothing in this document is invented; anything not legible or not present in the captured frames is listed in 'unreadable_or_uncertain' or 'not_captured'.",
  "language": "English",
  "currency_note": "The demo balance/bet use a placeholder currency glyph (a dagger-like symbol, transcribed here as '‡') that is a demo-mode token marker, not the game's real-money currency. It is NOT recorded as a currency value anywhere in this document; only the numeric amounts are meaningful. The jackpot tickers separately show amounts in real EUR (see 'jackpots')."

  "base_game_background": "Deep navy-blue night sky scattered with small white stars above a wide, dimly-lit sandy-tan photographic backdrop of the Colosseum's arched facade (base_game.png). During free spins the sky above the same ruins turns bright cerulean blue with soft white clouds, i.e. daytime (free_spins_1.png, free_spins_2.png, win_screen.png) — this background swap is the one reliable visual cue that a free-spins round is active besides the on-screen counter.",

  "top_banner": "Game logo 'ROMAN EMPIRE' rendered as silver-grey engraved 3D letters with a dark outline inside a bronze oval laurel-wreath crest, top-left. Centre-top: a jackpot plaque — dark maroon/brown rounded rectangle with a light-grey inner bevel, gold text label ('MINOR JACKPOT' or 'GRAND JACKPOT') above a lighter tan value strip. Immediately right of the plaque: a small square photo tile of the Colosseum with a thin gold/orange border, and beside it cream/tan text reading '3 OR MORE ANYWHERE TRIGGERS FEATURE' (on the frames captured; see 'anomalies' for the rotating second message).",
  "bottom_control_bar": "Same weathered sandstone texture as the reel frame; text labels ('BALANCE', 'BET', 'COIN', 'BET LEVEL', 'LINES') in light tan/cream, values in white/cream, all in a serif-styled UI font consistent with the Roman theme. Round bronze/gold buttons with dark brown '+'/'-' glyphs for steppers; the main SPIN button is a large circular gold/bronze disc with a dark-brown triangular play glyph, outlined in a lighter gold ring.",
  "service_strip": "A separate, darker charcoal/black strip below the main control bar (not stone-textured) carrying BALANCE / BET / WIN (message-bar echoes), a live clock, and small white monochrome icons (lightning/turbo, fullscreen diamond, speaker) plus the 'HABANERO' provider wordmark bottom-right in light grey capitals.",

   "high_symbol_fruit_bowl": "Ornate silver footed bowl holding green grapes, red apples, dark purple grapes/plums and orange fruit.",
   "low_symbols_letters": "5 card-rank symbols rendered as chunky 3D letters/number filled with a colored gem/mosaic texture and a gold outline: A = green, K = green (slightly darker/duller green than A), Q = pink/rose, J = orange/amber, 10 = teal/blue, 9 = pink/magenta (distinct shade from Q)."

  "colorblind_note": "Every symbol is also distinguished by its silhouette/iconography (coin vs. building vs. face vs. helmet vs. shield vs. bowl vs. distinct letterform/digit), so no game information is conveyed by color alone at the symbol level. The two jackpot tiers ('MINOR'/'GRAND') and Sound/Quick-Spin toggle states are distinguished by text label and by toggle position (left=off/grey, right=on/orange) respectively, not by color alone."

  "Retrigger wording: an earlier capture note asserted the booklet says 'The feature cannot be retriggered'. The doc-writer flagged that it was not visible on any of the 28 frames, and the TL then re-read both Feature pages and confirmed the sentence is absent. The withdrawn claim is recorded here so a later pass does not resurrect it. What remains genuinely unmeasured is the practical ceiling: the booklet prints no cap on added free games, and no cap was reached in the single round captured."
