    "release_date: not printed anywhere in the client; the build-stamp timestamp (2026-08-13T06:18:44.151Z) is a demo deployment date, not the game's real-world release date, and must not be used as such",
    "max_win_multiplier: 860x comes solely from the provider catalogue card; no in-game screen (rules summary table, splash, or HUD) states a max win figure, so it carries no in-build corroboration",
    "volatility: not stated anywhere in the captured screens (no rating text, star scale, or bolt icon found); not chased further against external sources in this documentation pass",
    "studio: only the PoggiPlay provider wordmark appears (loading screen top-center and demo-wrapper footer); no distinct sub-studio branding was found, consistent with this being a direct PoggiPlay title rather than a sub-label release"
