The defunct Acclaim brought us this game in 1991, the first based on the famous TV series. It's a very old game, from a time when Bart was the family's favorite character and not Homer. Here, Bart must screw the plans of a group of mutant aliens (sadly not Kang and Kodos) who want to conquer the world using purple objects, hats and balloons. Pure sadism these mutants.

PROS

⭐It is a colorful game and recreates well the Simpsons atmosphere.

CONS

⚠️Hard as hell. No passwords, no continues, and no save option. You have 3 lives and you can find a few more by searching for Krusty's photos, but that's all. I didn't meet any kid who could finish this game. Besides, the controls are lagging and require perfect timing pressing multiple buttons to move around certain levels.
⚠️Only the first level is decently designed, the rest are insane. The fifth level at the nuclear power plant could drive Flanders crazy.
