Slay the Dragon

Can you slay the dragon in this "slot-builder" game? · By Lone Spelunker

When a reel is shorter than the number of rows

Unlike when selecting a wizard, a ~̶~̶s̶w̶o̶r̶d̶~̶~ dragonslayer always cuts the ~̶~̶s̶l̶o̶t̶~̶~ space from the ~̶~̶r̶e̶e̶l̶~̶~ wheel when there’s a dragon irrespective of length.

I was expecting a softlock (unable to select 4 ~̶~̶i̶c̶o̶n̶s̶~̶~ slots); But if there’s ever a ‘remake’ with a fully mechanical representation, having the gap in the reel cause inconsequential malfunctions could be a ‘fun’ easter egg. (ie: having the pointer snag on the hole, a typewriter-like arm applying the ☑ stamp literally falling into the reels through the gap causing the wheel to misalign/bounce, the slot cutting effect being less constrained, or things snagging causing elements of the ‘practical’ effects to cascade…)
