    "provider": "BGaming",
    "theme": "Abstract outer-space / galaxy theme built around gemstones and a rainbow 'Wild' disc. Deep purple/indigo night-sky backgrounds with soft blue and violet bokeh circles float behind the reels on every screen; feature-intro cards use a cosmic starburst/lightning motif in pink and gold. No narrative character - the visual identity is carried entirely by colourful jewel icons and a multicolour pinwheel Wild symbol.",
    "documentation_purpose": "Exhaustive accessibility documentation (blind/low-vision screen-reader users, deaf/hard-of-hearing, colour-blind users of all types, motor-impaired users) built from the 30 desktop screenshots (1280x800) in this slot's manifest plus OCR ground truth and zoomed paytable crops.",

Per instruction from the team lead, this 2.00 FUN figure on the paytable pages is the correct anchor for converting the printed absolute FUN payouts into bet multipliers; the 0.60 FUN total bet visible on the rules_p1-p11 pages (captured later, after bet-limit testing) is NOT an anchor and was not used for any calculation. RTP and max-win figures are quoted verbatim from in-game text (rules_p8/p9/p10, preview.png) - a rare case where the demo itself prints exact RTP for base game and every feature buy. Numbers not clearly legible are listed in 'unreadable_or_uncertain' and were not invented.",

    "buttons": "Primary action buttons (BUY, ACTIVATE, START AUTOPLAY-style controls) are a medium purple/violet with a lighter violet top highlight and a thin light-purple border - a consistent 'purple pill' button language across the whole UI. Disabled/inactive buttons (e.g. 'DEACTIVATE' shown while a feature purchased via Feature Buy is still resolving) turn a flat dark grey with grey text.",

    "progress_meter": "Five short horizontal pill-shaped segments stacked vertically on the far right of the game screen, below the large Wild disc icon. Empty/unfilled state is a flat dark purple/lavender bar; as segments fill during play they are shown in varying accent colours (gold/orange, red, blue, green) - colour appears tied to which symbol type most recently contributed a winning cluster, not to a fixed rank.",
    "win_text": "Large win amounts (e.g. 'PERFECT WIN! 719.60') are rendered in bold white letters with a bright blue/cyan glow outline on a mostly-black dimmed background during the win-summary overlay.",
