Paperboy — About this game

Paperboy turns a newspaper route into an obstacle course. Ride past subscribing houses, throw papers into their boxes or onto their porches, and collect fresh bundles before running out. Missed deliveries and broken customer windows cost subscriptions, while the training track offers targets, ramps and extra points. Check the customer map before riding. Keep a moderate speed, aim at the light-colored houses with paperboxes, and collect paper bundles before tackling the training track.
