Streets and Avenues of ToonTalk City

Streets and Avenues of the ToonTalk City

Each block in the ToonTalk City has an address that is the number of the avenue and street at its lower left corner. Avenues run north and south. Avenues further east have higher numbers. Streets run east and west. Streets that are further north have bigger numbers. You can do the same things with streets and avenues that you can do with numbers like add and subtract. So if you drop a 1 on "Fourth Avenue" it'll change to "Fifth Avenue".

You can drop a street or avenue (or both) into a truck. The crew will try to find the closest empty lot to the address you give them and build a house there.

You can find the address of the house you are in on page 48 of the sensor notebook.

Advanced tip: You can customize ToonTalk so that avenues are cardinal numbers rather than words for cardinal numbers.
