description
Sint Nicolaas is a festive puzzle-platformer inspired by Dutch Sinterklaas traditions. Players guide Sint as he scrambles to recover stolen gifts and gingerbread cookies scattered across rooftops by careless thieves. Each level tasks you with gathering misplaced items and delivering them to color-coded chimneys marked with specific present hues and cookie quotas before sunrise. Gifts trail behind Sint in a chain, but only the lead item can be deposited—planning delivery routes strategically is key to matching chimney requirements. A ticking clock at the screen’s base adds urgency; swift completion unlocks bonus stages. Navigating the perilous terrain demands caution: icy slopes threaten slips, jagged TV antennas snag robes, and territorial birds swoop to snatch items or attack. While stomping birds fends them off, sparing all feathered foes nets bonus rewards. Keep an eye out for hidden chocolate letters spelling S-I-N-T—collect all four to earn an extra life. Balance speed and precision to restore holiday cheer without tumbling into the darkness below!
