"Welcome to my world."

Yeah, it's a button-mashy arcade beat-'em-up designed to eat your quarters, alright. At least the art is pretty good for the time, and the game has the retroactive novelty of being based on the very, very early days of the TV show. With team-up moves, special items, and so on, it's got most of the stuff you could want in this era of beat-'em-up, but it's a kind of game design that doesn't really click with me. Fun to play with friends, at least.

This is basically a Simpsons skin of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game, meaning that it's actually a really good brawler and an impressive first outing for the Simpson family.

Tem o seu charme, mas enjoa fácil demais.

Buenas graficas para su tiempo! Puedes jugar con toda la familia Simpsons. Algo corto pero un buen desafio si no tenias suficientes monedas para los continues...

Spent way too long playing this in the local Family Fun Center/Boomers. Always went for Marge with the vacuum cleaner. Super fun beat 'em up


Esse jogo tem uma arte muito bonita e uma jogabilidade muito boa. Foi especial pra mim por que zerei ele com a minha mãe

A classic arcade game. Would’ve been rated higher if played during its heyday in an arcade.

Got surprised with a Simpsons 1up arcade recently. Got to play through this with a friend. This game is wildly creative and has a soundtrack that rings in my mind constantly (thanks to the Talking Simpsons Podcast)

The 1Up arcade is pretty good! I've played this on an original cabinet too, and the 1Up arcade does a good job capturing that energy.

Absolutely awesome arcade beat em up! Full of classic Simpsons nostalgia that fills your heart with the warmest memories. It’s very fun too.

Shallow but beautiful, this Konami button basher is great for a short laugh, but not much more than that. Still one of the early 90s best looking and sounding games, for what that's worth.

Fun and chaotic, specially with friends. The only downside is they didn't use famous characters as bosses, and instead used some original characters who no one would bother to care.

Imagine TMNT if it looked better, but somehow was more boring.

Utter quarter-eating bullshit, but the charm and fun are undeniable.

This is one of the most famous Arcade video games ever made. The Simpsons is a weird series to turn into a Beat 'em-up but it worked well. This game is extremely difficult and the graphics aren't the best this era had to offer but the abundance of Simpsons reference and the fact that this game exists at all makes it worth checking out.

Super beloved, beat 'em up, that's just alright. The first two levels were super fun and had a couple of interesting situations, but by the third level, it started feeling redundant, despite taking place in a cemetary of all palces. 

Gameplay-wise, it's as simple as it gets: straight forward, no special moves or original gimmicks to spice things up. 

The battle against Smithers was cool, but the one against Mr. Burns really drags on for too long. 

It's in its visuals and sound where this game excels, though; it's absolutely top-notch, especially for 1991.

Do it for her: the official game

Clásico atemporal, no hay mucho que decir de él, graficos, musica, jugabilidad, referencias, dificultad, 4 personajes jugables, talvez el mejor juego de los Simpsons hecho.

Played at the VS Arcade Bar in Lincoln, Nebraska. It probably would've been more fun if someone else was there with me that day, but then again, I hate beat-em-ups.

Loved this game at the arcade. Still excited when I see it nowadays.

A good, solid beat 'em up that doesn't outstay its welcome. Was pleased to see it released on 360 but over 30 years on and it's a little strange that it only ever got two modern ports.

zerei com meu pai, jogo foda

Took me about 1 hour and 10 dollars in quarters but I did it. I got past the first level.

Un muy buen juego beat em up.


legalzão mas esperava um pouco mais dele

It’s a quarter water with little finesse, cheap as hell and with arbitrary hit boxes… but that early Simpsons charm has no substitute. So much nostalgia for watching people play this in bowling alleys and roller rinks as a kid in the nineties. I’d forgive if anything.

Jogo muito estiloso, mitada pura.
