Paperboy 2

One day, you will be a paper man


Genre: arcade - n/a

Publisher: Mindscape

Year: 1991

System: SNES


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

Very slow gameplay. Inexplicable slowdown Throwing newspapers where you want them requires timing and experience since they won't always go where you think they will. Hitting animations to ruin people's day is more fun than actually winning. Really bad controls.


Level Design Score: 1

Level Design Notes:

What levels? Its the same street 5 times in a row. Yawn


Theme Score: 2

Theme Notes:

As a former paperboy I don't know if it makes for a good game. But hey there are some cute story elements like the newspaper at the end of each level lauding your praise or criticizing your play.


Art Style Score: 1

Art Style Notes:

NES quality graphics. Not good


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:

Music has a Seinfeld intro quality. Which is to say, it sucks. Sounds are chirpy but kinda cute


Overall Score: 21

Review ID: 408
