The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants

Neste novo e sensacional game, Bart Simpson é o único que pode salvar Springfield, a pequena cidade onde mora, da invasão de mutantes espaciais. Eles precisam de objetos terrestres para sua terrível arma poder funcionar e a missão de Bart é impedir que eles consigam esses objetos.

Parents put off by Bart's rebellious, anti-social attitude won't find comfort here. But those who remember what it was like to be 8 years old — and who enjoy Bart's animated adventures — will find that this game offers an amiable respite from the mayhem endemic to popular Nintendo titles like Double Dragon and Contra.

Bart Simpson has finally made it to the NES from Acclaim. His adventure, though, is anything but a game for underachievers. This game is very challenging and could be frustratingly so to some players. The tasks that you must perform to complete the adventure require patience and skill.

This title was my first real taste of video game disappointment. Sure, I’d played crap games before this one, some that were even worse for sure. But this game was supposed to be an interactive version of one of my favourite television shows, and it was infinitely less fun than I expected. I mean, even when it was released, The Simpsons had made Fox millions of dollars (to add to Rupert's other couple of billion), so why couldn’t they spend a bit (well, a lot) more time and effort on making this game something special? In the end, this game is no different to the hundreds (maybe thousands) of other crap licensed platformers that were prevalent in the 90s. I just really hoped it would be something great.
