(It’s a very nice day in the Mushroom Kingdom. The sun is shining, the birds are singing…. And the giant beanstalk is swaying in the breeze. Wait, wait, wait…. Hold it, giant beanstalk?! Yes, you heard that right! There’s one right in front of you, just waiting to be climbed. So, unable to resist the call of adventure, that’s exactly what you do.

It takes a while, but you eventually come up through a trapdoor and emerge into a gigantic castle high in the clouds! Everything is absolutely huge, and you feel positively petite…. It’s pretty awe-inspiring, to be honest.

But then, you’re snapped out of your reverie by thunderous footfalls that shake the floor, and rumbling, evil laughter that rattles the rafters! The Giant is coming…. So what do you do? Run? Hide? Or, riskiest of all…. Stick around and hope he’s friendly?)
