From MobyGames:

   Sint Nicolaas has been robbed! The thieves have taken his big sack full of presents and gingerbread cookies. In their run however, they weren't careful and presents started dropping out of the sack. Now Sint only has to collect the fallen cookies and presents and brind them to the right chimneys.
   Sint Nicolaas is a platform game based on the the Dutch tradition of Sinterklaas. Jump across rooftops, pick up presents and cookies and watch out for birds and old fashioned TV antennas. The chimneys have a colored box and a number. You have to deliver the presents at the chimney with a matching color box and deliver as many cookies as indicated by the number. When you pick up presents they follow you in a string, similar to Flicky.
   You can only deliver the present you first picked up. So if the present closest to you is red then you must first find a chimney with a red box. This gets tougher in later levels, where presents and matching chimney don't appear in order forcing you to backtrack parts of the level.
   After each round there is a bonus game where you have to pick up 100 gingerbread cookies within a time limit, and there are platforms that disappear when you walk across them.

Platform:

This ver­sion of Sint Nicolaas was de­sig­ned for per­so­nal com­pu­ters with o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem MS-DOS (Mi­cro­soft Disk O­pe­ra­ting Sys­tem), which was o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem de­ve­lo­ped by Mi­cro­soft in 1981. It was the most wi­de­ly-used o­pe­ra­ting sys­tem in the first half of the 1990s. MS-DOS was sup­plied with most of the IBM com­pu­ters that pur­cha­sed a li­cen­se from Mi­cro­soft. Af­ter 1995, it was pu­s­hed out by a gra­phi­cal­ly mo­re ad­van­ced sys­tem - Win­dows and its de­ve­lop­ment was ce­a­sed in 2000. At the ti­me of its grea­test fa­me, se­ve­ral thou­sand ga­mes de­sig­ned spe­ci­fi­cal­ly for com­pu­ters with this sys­tem we­re cre­a­ted. To­day, its de­ve­lop­ment is no lon­ger con­ti­nue and for e­mu­la­tion the free DOSBox e­mu­la­tor is most of­ten used. Mo­re in­for­ma­ti­on about MS-DOS operating system can be found here.
