Descpription:
The player controls a paperboy on a bicycle delivering
newspapers along a suburban street which is displayed in a cabinet perspective view.
The player attempts to deliver a week of daily newspapers to subscribing customers,
attempts to vandalize non-subscriber's homes and must avoid hazards along the street.
Subscribers are lost by missing a delivery or damaging the subscriber's
house, and can be recovered after a perfect day's delivery.
The game begins with a choice of difficulty levels:
Easy Street (easy),
Middle Road (medium)
Hard Way (hard).
The object of the game is to perfectly deliver papers to subscribers for an entire week
and avoid crashing (which counts as one of the player's lives) before the week ends.
The game lasts for seven in-game days, Monday through Sunday. Controlling the paperboy with
the handlebar controls, the player attempts to deliver newspapers to subscribers. Each day
begins by showing an overview of the street indicating subscribers and non-subscribers.
Subscribers and non-subscribers' homes are also easy to discern in the level itself.
