A top-down outdoor scene displays a blue-robed player character in the center-left of a bright green grassy area bordered by orange-brick walls and yellow-green foliage. Two pink enemies stand in the middle-right and right portions of the field. An orange-roofed building with red doors sits at the top center. At the bottom, a status bar shows CLASS FIGHTER, LEVEL 1, STRENGTH 0, LIFE 10, EXP 0 in white text against a dark background. The NES-era sprite graphics use a limited pixel palette with clear tile-based architecture.
