The cover has a label with an outer light blue background. The left, right, and bottom edges have yellow filigrees with black outlines and some interior shading. The interior background is yellowish-green except for the center which has 7 light blue circles that each have smaller round spots on their circumferences.

The game title appears at top, center: "THE" (medium blue with black outline) above "HIPPODROME" (each letter is formed by two or more clown characters in mostly pale colors and polka dots).

"THE" appears over the light blue box background at top, plus the top yellow bordera and the top part of the red rectangle.
