The player must cross a bridge of five turtles to deliver items to the receiver on the other side of the lake. Each time the player delivers an item, they earn three points. On the way back to the home bank, the player earns from two to 12 extra points depending on how fast they return. However, the turtles at times will go down into the lake to eat fish, and if the player jumps onto or stays on a descending turtle, that player will fall into the lake and lose a life. Also, the player might need to wait for the receiver to appear and cannot return to the home bank while carrying an item. If the player reaches 200 or 500 points without any misses, then no fish will appear for the turtles for 20 to 40 seconds. If the player has any misses at either score, every miss will be cleared instead. The player receives a [[Game Over]] when they lose three lives.▼
 
==Gameplay==

In the Modern version, the game stars [[Toad]] as the main character, who must deliver various items from [[Mario]] to [[Princess Peach]]. Unlike the original, this game does not take place in a lake but instead in the sky, as Toad is delivering the items from Mario's side of a [[castle]] to Peach's side of the castle, and rather than turtles, Toad crosses a bridge of flying [[GooniesGoonie]]s to accomplish his task. Sometimes the Goonies will drop down to pop balloons that are floating up to the sky. If Toad is to jumpjumps onto or staystays on a Goonie that is descending to pop a balloon, he will fall and lose a life. In this version, manyToad receives five points for returning to the left side of the castle. Many elements from the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]] franchise were also added, such as [[coin]]s that remain suspended in the air and reward Toad with extra points if he collects them. As long as Toad delivers an item without losing a life, Mario will give him a different item worth a few more points over time. DeliveringToad receives six points for delivering a [[Mushroom]], gives Toad 6eight points; for a [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]], 810 points; for a [[Gift Box|present]], 1012 points; for a [[Melonmelon]], 12and 15 points; andfor a [[Super Star]], 15 points. Additionally, therebetween the second and third Goonies is a [[platform]] inwith thethree middle[[Cloud thatBlock]]s above it, which disappear if Toad stays on them for too long. The platform changes over time. At 300 points, the platform turns into a three-second countdown timer gets added to the platform[[Count-Lift]], which makes it fallfalls after the timer hitsreaches zero. At 600 points, the platform turns into two [[Donut Block]]s, which fall shortly after Toad lands on them. Toad also loses a life if he jumps onto or stays on a descending platform. At 200, 500, and 700 points, a [[Lakitu]] will appear and drop a [[1 UP Heart|Heartheart]] for Toad to remove a miss. Unlike in the Classic version, music is featured, with the tempo changing depending on the speed of the game.
