The upper playfield is a jumble of chrome wireform ramps, black ball guides, orange plastic ramp lips and two grey shrouded ghost-ninja statues standing in recessed pockets.

Full description

A modern comic-book / cel-shaded backglass dominated by a giant yellow-orange setting sun against a purple and magenta sky streaked with dark smoke. On the left a colossal grinning male warrior in a horned helmet, red cloak and dark lamellar armour looms over the scene, one hand raised holding a flaming orange fireball and the other fist thrust forward; his cloak dissolves into smaller figures at his feet. Small red-and-black ninjas run rightwards across the middle ground towards a bearded man in blue and purple monk-like robes and a square black hat, sword in hand, met by a dark-skinned woman in white, red and pale-blue hanfu robes leaping with a black ponytail flying, palm outfiring a golden coiled dragon. The bottom third is a dark indigo-blue pagoda roofscape in silhouette with arrow shafts in the tiles. The title sits at lower right in fat orange-to-red gradient cartoon lettering with a white and black drop shadow, and vertical Chinese text columns run down the right edge in red and yellow.

Below him crowd crimson and magenta demon creatures with claws, fangs and single glowing eyes, plus a towering red dragon head.
