Overview:
This
Paperboy sequel keeps almost everything the same and just
improves on it. The graphics, for one, are much better. This
not only makes the game more enjoyable to play, it improves
functionality as you can see more of the street and it is
clearer. The view has also changed and it also makes the game
easier to play.
Once
you choose between being a boy and a girl (new to Paperboy
2) you start your first day at work delivering newspapers.
The map at the start of the level tells you which homes are
subscribers and which aren't, and so you must deliver to the
subscribers. You will be able to tell which houses these are
because they will have mailboxes. There are stacks of papers
to pick up along the way.
If
a house doesn't get their paper, they will cancel their subscription.
However, if you deliver to every subscriber, you can regain
a former subscriber. This is called a Perfect
Delivery and it earns resubscribers up to a maximum of 10.
After that, it earns a free life. The game is divided into
three weeks of seven days, and completing each week will earn
a promotion to a new neighborhood. You can also score bonus
points by stopping burglars, runaway baby strollers, breaking
nonsubscribers' windows, watering the sunbather, and hassling
the garbage man. There is also a little obstacle course at
the end of the level where you can earn points by hitting
targets, etc.
To
control your paperboy/girl, use the up and down arrow keys
to bike faster and slow down. The left and right arrow keys
steer. There are controls to throw papers, but the best I
have found are , and . which throw left and right, respectively.
