Easy Street is an educational shopping game. The player controls a small child who must travel Easy Street, to go to the local stores to buy the items on their shopping list. The player must choose which store is appropriate to buy the items on the top of the screen, entering the store, and choosing the correct item. On more difficult levels, the player must choose how much to pay for the item. To complicate matters, the player will get approached by Knuckles the Gorilla, and if he is able to hop onto the player's wagon, the player will not be able to enter any more stores, and must restart their shopping trip. When the player has gathered all required items, they can return home with their shopping complete.
Your goal is to make your way down Easy Street, finding and purchasing each of the five items on your shopping list. But watch out for Knuckles, the pesky gorilla! She'll try to sneak aboard your wagon, and you won't be able to get into stores where animals aren't allowed! Then you'll have to take her all the way back home before you can continue your journey.
