Tall Poppy is a first-person, horror exploration game where a funny prankster ghost causes trouble for you because he wants to have some fun. The game was developed and published by Attainable Entertainment, a video game developing and publishing company based in Ontario, Canada. According to Attainable Entertainment’s Itch.io page, Tall Poppy started off on Itch.io, but plans to make its way over to Steam on Nov. 26, 2021, for the PC.
One day, your wife forgets her purse at the local cemetery, and she wants you to retrieve it for her. To find her purse, you need to head back to the cemetery at midnight when no one else is around so you can thoroughly explore the grounds using your handy flashlight and your wits. While exploring the cemetery, you discover a church and decide to look for the purse in there. During your investigation, you encounter Tall Poppy, a prankster ghost who lives in the church and pulls pranks on everyone he meets. Although these pranks seem harmless at first, there is a chance where they will result in murder. Along with finding your wife’s purse, you now have to successfully escape the church and avoid falling victim for Tall Poppy’s pranks.
Tall Poppy incorporates comedic elements in a horror game setting, which is a charming and unique aspect that you do not often see or experience in common horror games. Throughout the game, you will catch Tall Poppy making funny faces or even dabbing during his attempts to scare you with his pranks.
If you are interested in playing horror games, Tall Poppy is a good place to start. The game allows you to feel the fear that comes with horror games while also giving you the chance to have a little laugh whenever you see Tall Poppy. You can buy Tall Poppy on Steam for the original price of $2.99. Currently, the game is on sale for $2.69 until Dec. 3, 2021.
