The Simpsons Game

System: Nintendo DS Release date: 02/11/2007

Is this Springfield or is it a video game? Actually, it’s both! In The Simpsons Game, you’ll play as Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa as they fight their way through parodies of multiple popular games, squashing an amazing array of villains in the process.

No video game or genre is safe from the Simpsons’ lampooning. Did you ever connect with a pup in Nintendogs? If so, maybe you’re ready to care for your own Pet Homer. Ever wonder what attacks the Simpsons would use if they engaged in Pokémon-like battles? The Simpsons Game offers this and much, much more.

You’ll need to use each character’s powers to save Springfield from rising chaos. Be an action hero with Bart and a wreaking ball of destruction with Homer, and you’ll use the stylus to solve puzzles and defeat enemies with Marge and Lisa. In addition to lush environments sprawling across both screens, The Simpsons Game features unlockable mini-games and four multiplayer games available for DS Download Play.

To top it all off, the game sports a hilarious storyline crafted by the TV show’s award-winning writers and features the voice actors from the show, reprising their roles to deliver the ultimate in authenticity. 

  • Found sitting or lying on the couch of the Simpsons’ home is your very own Pet Homer. Use your stylus to feed, nurture and even torment him (but especially feed him). Progress through the game’s story mode and unlock new items and characters with which Pet Homer can react.
  • As you play through the game, you’ll see a lot of familiar faces as the game features many of your favourite Simpsons characters. The game features a completely original script with 4 distinct acts, 12 episodes and more than 2,000 lines of dialogue.
  • With parodies of the video game industry, pop culture and current events, the game shares the same humour and sensibility as the TV show.
