The bridge switch
Retro 8-bit comic strip: a small traveler in a blue cap finds a raised wooden bridge, steps on a large yellow switch, then crosses toward a green hill. Chunky pixel shapes, blue sky, brown bridge, clear panel borders, no text.
The switch visibly links the obstacle to its solution.
