Melvin's Delivery Dash takes place in a large county with different areas within it. A city, lake, forest, beach, and residential neighborhoods.
There's an overabundance of packages being mailed out, but not enough people to deliver them on time. Your goal is to deliver more packages around the county than your opponents before time runs out.
When each player draws a Package card, the package size and color of the card determine where it has to be delivered. Players can move freely in almost any direction around the board as they head to the appropriate destination. When their package is delivered, they pull a new package and head to the next spot.
Landing on specially marked spaces gets you a delivery notice, which can help or hinder your progress, or of those around you.
Choosing the most efficient route, and deciding who to sabotage along the way with Delivery Notices, will influence who wins in the end.
