How to Play Paperboy
Quick start
Deliver the Daily Sun to every subscriber from Monday through Sunday. Slow before each mailbox or porch, line up one accurate throw, collect spare paper bundles, and avoid traffic, dogs, workers, and street hazards. After each route, finish the training course for bonus points without risking the day's progress.
Controls
D-pad left/right: steer; diagonals shift the bicycle across the road. Up accelerates and Down brakes. A, B, or C throws a paper. Start begins and pauses the route. All three face buttons perform the same throw, so accuracy depends on lane position, speed, and release timing.
