You're standing on a large, cobblestone plaza, overlooking miles of … interesting … not to mention varied, terrain. It's Pretty Damn Huge and could easily take a whole day to traverse. You can see a dank, overgrown swamp, wreathed with patches of fog; a leafy green woodland with flashes of colourful flowers; a jagged desert canyon shimmering in a heat haze; an icy miniature mountain range above which a snow storm is brewing; and a cluster of cute, quaint houses far, far in the distance. A river winds throughout, occasionally intersecting with the path you're supposed to follow. The path is winding, and even from here you can see that it's divided into "squares" with faintly glowing borders. The squares are sized to be proportional to the course, which is to say, they're also Big.

There's plenty of space to mingle up here, with benches to sit on and old, battered-looking vending machines you can kick if you want some soda or candy to snack on. You don't have any money, though, so … good luck.

At the northern end of the plaza is a huge inflatable arch with the word "START" written in comic sans. Nobody can move beyond this point without first rolling their die, but you can see that you've got two choices: walk down what must be at least 500 steps to reach the first square, or take the equally long but infinitely more fun bouncy inflatable slide.
