The Tall Stump is the equivalent of a never released NES game finding its way to the Internet. Everything from the graphics to the “over before you know it” story introduction scream NES, but not the gameplay. The gameplay is a weird mix of the old and the new. The collecting of items feels old, but the physics based puzzles feel new. A great platformer with a spin for fans of the genre.
