Deliver letters Frogger-style in this game, where your joystick controls the postman's van. Initially, you have to avoid hedges(?) to get to the railway track. Two trains continuously whizz along and more often than not, devour your van as you try to leap in between.

Inane comments such as "Too bad" and "One left" are accompanied by an irritating ditty which make you pause to contemplate your frustration, before trying again.

The railway section now mastered, you have to cross the river by hitching a ride on the boats, but strategically-placed bushes complicate your landing. Once across, traffic wardens have to be dodged as you aim for the flashing house. Pressing FIRE delivers your letter.

During the course of the game, a sunflower appears, to enable you to live the motorists' dream. For while the flower is on the screen you can run over the wardens and gain bonus points.

Control by joystick is simple, although it is all too easy to continue moving when you really mean to stop. Graphics are reasonable and sound well deployed.

If you enjoyed Frogger, then you will enjoy Perilous Postman.
