M.U.L.E.

Screenshots

The title screen displays "M.U.L.E." in large gold pixelated lettering against a solid purple background. Below the title, a small green and yellow sprite of a mule stands centered on the screen. Copyright text appears at the bottom stating "Copyright © 1990, 1983 Ozark Softscape" and "Licensed by Nintendo of America Inc." The text uses a simple white font typical of NES-era graphics with visible pixelation throughout.
