"## 2. Core Gameplay Mechanics (Detailed Version)
### 2.1 Basic Reel Rules
- **Reel Configuration**: Typically **3 reels × 3 rows** (may vary slightly by version).
- **Paylines**: Mostly 25 lines (fixed); wins are awarded by matching identical symbols from left to right.
- **Betting Method**: Players can select different denominations (e.g., $0.01, $0.02, $0.05, $0.10, $0.25, $1). Total bet per spin = Denomination × Number of Paylines × Bet Amount per Line.

### 2.2 Hold & Spin Bonus Feature
This is the signature core mechanic of Dragon Link.
#### Trigger Condition
- Land **6 or more Orb (Golden Ball) symbols** anywhere on the reels to enter the Hold & Spin bonus round.
#### Bonus Rules
1. **Initial Spins**: 3 spins.
2. **Lock & Reset**:
- When a new golden coin symbol appears, it locks in place on the reels.
- Each time a new coin appears, the remaining spin count **resets to 3**.
3. **Coin Values**:
- Each coin symbol displays a fixed monetary value (calculated based on the current bet amount).
- Some coins display **Mini** or **Minor** labels, representing fixed small or medium prize amounts.
4. **Grand Jackpot Condition**:
- If all 15 grid positions on the screen are filled with coins, the **Grand Jackpot** (progressive jackpot pool) is awarded.
5. **Round Conclusion**:
- The total value of all coins is calculated and combined with any Mini, Minor, or Grand prizes won; the total amount is then awarded.
