If you make a perfect delivery on any of the days, a customer will resubscribe or there will be a new subscriber. If you successfully cross the finish line, you will receive a bonus and proceed to the following day. During this sequence, if you crash your bike or run out of time, you will not lose a life but that practice session will end and you will proceed onward to the next day. Once you have completed the delivery run on the second row of houses, you will head straight to the obstacle course, where you will try to hit targets with your papers, jump ramps, pedal your bike safely through and cross the finish line before time runs out. After you have completed your delivery run on the first row of houses, you must cross the street to get to the next row while avoiding speeding cars or motorcycles. If you ride your bike too slowly, a swarm of bees will chase you and force you to ride faster. Your supply of papers is limited, so you must ride your bike over a stack of newpapers that occasionally appears on the sidewalk to replentish your supply. You can also throw your papers to knock out certain people like paving-construction workers, men in shabby clothes, break-dancers, one of two men fighting each other, burglers, angry men who start chasing you and so on. You can throw newspapers to damage property of a "non-customer" house to score points but if you damage property of a "customer" house, that house will have it's subscription cancelled before the following day and it will become a "non-customer" house, the same thing will happen if you do not deliver a paper to that house at all. On each street, there is a wide variety of obstacles that you must avoid: people, dogs, cats, moving cars, pot holes, kids on skateboards, eldery women pushing shopping carts, men on unicycles, radio-controlled toy vehicles and so on. You must deliver the papers by throwing them onto the door mats or into the mail boxes. There are also black "non-customer" houses which do not require newspaper deliveries. Game PlayThe object of the game is to deliver newspapers to all the "customer" houses on the street. They are respectively Easy Street (easy), Middle Road (medium), and Hard Way (hard).

Cabinet Style Weights and Measures TypeĬheats, Tricks, Bugs, and Easter EggsThere was a bug in the game that sometimes permitted the user to go past the end of the obstacle course and cause weird things to happen in the next day of delivering papers.
