As a fan of the TV series but a not a fan of previous Simpsons game I was not really looking forward to this game but as it was cheap I decided to give it a go, the game was worth the £8 odd I paid for it but probably not worth full price, it is fun to play but soon gets pretty repetitive. The game is also the 22nd Simpsons game to be released.

A fun game to play that is based on the TV series, the game has little depth to it though but if you are a fan of the series if you can pick it up cheaply it is worth buying. There is 16 different levels to play and 4 different characters to play as Homer, Lisa, Marge and Bart and each one has there own moves and abilities. On each level you can play as 1 of 2 different characters. As in most Simpsons game you find yourself having to try to save the world by beating villains and trying to control the chaos. There is also a few mini games in the game as well.

The voice acting is done by the original voice actors from the show and the game is written by the writers

Multiplayer - You can play the game co-op with a friend on split screen.

Game Play - The cut scenes and the story is pretty good although the actual playing of the game gets pretty repetitive quickly as you end up doing the same thing time and again.

Graphics - The graphics at some point are pretty good than later on they are completely rubbish so not that consistent and a lot of the time the angle of the camera can be annoying.

Difficulty - The AI is not very good and the levels are not that long, the game is basically just pressing the same few buttons again and again so not that hard to complete.

Summary: a quick and fun game
