be taking a look at 1991’s wacky
beat-em-up the simpsons arcade game

the same name this action-packed romp
was adapted by Konami at the height of
the show’s popularity and became an
instant arcade favorite upon release
looping the show’s opening and character
bios the adventure opens with Weiland
Smithers making his getaway after
robbing the Springfield jewelers
immediately bumping into Homer Simpson
the giant diamond is thrown into
Maggie’s mouth replacing her pacifier as
a result
Smithers decides to grab Maggie and make
a run for playing is the Simpsons family
you and other players must work together
to fight past hundreds of goons in order
to recover the family’s youngest member
unlike many other beat-em-ups each
character in the simpsons arcade game
has his or her own unique personality
and weapons for example while Homer is
able to punch and kick marge furiously
swings her vacuum cleaner Bart uses his
skateboard and Lisa wields her jump rope
like a whip interestingly the game also
encourages gamers to team up to create
special team attacks which vary
depending on which characters are
involved in the maneuver venturing
through the game’s many stages players
make their way through many bizarre and
iconic settings these includes downtown
Springfield krustyland the discount
cemetery Moe’s Tavern
Springfield Butte dreamland and finally
on to the nuclear power plant once there
players will have to face Smithers and
his boss mr. burns
like the other stage bosses their speed
and strength increases until they are
defeated in addition to these many
levels and battles there are two bonus
stages these includes balloon inflating
and slapping yourself awake after
falling from a waterfall sporting bright
colourful graphics and the voice talent
behind the show The Simpsons includes
many hysterical moments and references
to its source material it does this
while building on the game engine of
Konami’s other classic quarter munching
multiplayer experience the Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game as one
of our all-time arcade favorites we’re
still waiting for the day that it gets
re-released to the home consoles
allowing a new generation of Simpsons
fans to enjoy them at their zinnias
