Magical Tree (ColecoVision) – Classic Adventure Platformer by Opcode Games & Konami

Magical Tree is a platforming adventure developed for the ColecoVision by Opcode Games in partnership with Konami.

Originally known in arcades and home computer releases, this version brings the whimsical yet challenging experience to ColecoVision fans, highlighting the blend of action, fantasy, and skill-based gameplay that defined 1980s platformers.

The story follows Apache Kid, a brave yet pint-sized hero determined to scale an enormous enchanted tree that stretches skyward. At the very top sits a mysterious castle said to be filled with riches. However, reaching the summit is no simple task. Along the way, players must outwit owls, cocoons, and other guardians of the tree who are determined to stop any intruder from entering their domain.

Gameplay revolves around vertical progression, with players climbing branch after branch while dodging hazards and timing jumps precisely. Each level introduces new challenges and obstacles, testing both reflexes and strategy. The higher Apache Kid climbs, the more intense the challenge becomes, rewarding persistence and careful play.

What makes Magical Tree stand out on the ColecoVision is its faithful recreation of Konami’s charming design combined with Opcode Games’ dedication to expanding the console’s library with unique and memorable titles. For retro gaming collectors and enthusiasts, it represents a rare chance to enjoy a fantasy platformer that blends arcade-style action with the exploration and discovery of a fairy-tale adventure.

With its enchanting theme, nostalgic gameplay, and historical ties to Konami’s early catalog, Magical Tree remains a standout release for ColecoVision owners who appreciate both challenge and charm in their retro gaming experiences.
