Neural Cluster Pays. 6×6 grid. Win when 5 or more matching symbols connect orthogonally (up/down/left/right). The larger the cluster, the bigger the payout. Wild nodes substitute for any non-scatter.
After a spin, the engine scans every cell. Each contiguous group of matching symbols (connected up/down/left/right — not diagonally) is one cluster. Wilds connect any cluster of non-scatter symbols.
If a cluster has 5 or more cells, it pays. The payout multiplier scales with cluster size: 5 cells pays a small multiplier, 12+ cells pays massively. After every paying spin, the winning cluster disappears, symbols above fall down, and new symbols refill the top — exactly like the Cascade slot.
