The Simpsons Game - Walkthrough

Objective: Destroy the limousines
----------------


The horde of lawyers can be quite devastating, which is why you need to take down the four limos that they spawn from ASAP. The best way to do this is to ignore the lawyers, and grab the RoboBart power-up from one of the nearby pedestals. To get to it, use your grapple to pull yourself to the grassy ledge on the right, then leap to the nearby pedestal containing the RoboBart power-up.

Now that you're RoboBart, it only takes a single shot to destroy each limo - all four can be found near the closed gate, on the right. Once all four are destroyed, proceed through the gate that opens.

Climb the stairs up to the Mansion's front door, where you'll have to play a game of Simon Says to get in. You'll have to step on the floor tiles in the same order that they light up as. While you can try memorizing it (hint: it's the Simpson's theme), you may want to consult the picture below, showing what order to step on the tiles in.

After successfully completing the game, enter the mansion through the door that opens.


To stop Matt Groening, you'll have to find some way to close the curtain at each of the five locations he appears at.


Matt's first location is on the far left ledge, just above the ramp. Destroy the money pile blocking the ramp with Homer's ball-pound, then boost up the ramp, into the button. The curtains will close, giving Matt a chance to relocate.

Matt will now appear on the ledge on the exact opposite side - this time you'll have to use Bart to reach him. Look for a couch on the same side of the room Matt's on that you can use to bounce up to a chandelier. Now grapple over to one near Matt, then glide to the switch to his left. Flip it to close the curtain, forcing him to move once again.

Groening will now appear on the only other ledge on the same side of the room, and there's another ramp just beneath him - you know what to do. Except this time, there are three pencils jutting out from the wall - wait for the middle one to recede, then boost up the ramp, and into the button, causing the curtain to close.

Groening fourth appearance is on a ledge, directly opposite the third. Have Bart bounce off the same couch used for point two, and then grapple to the second chandler. Wait for it to rise, then glide over the room, to the chandler near Matt. Then hop from here and glide once more to the switch left of Groening - flip it to close the curtain.

Matt's final appearance is on a high balcony, in the center of the far wall. Thankfully, a ramp just happens to rise from the ground at the same time. Roll up the ramp as Homer, then ball-boost when near the top to trigger the final button, and complete the level.

Objective: Defeat William Shakespeare
---------------


The best way to tackle Shakespeare is to use fire Bart's slingshot perpetually while strafing around Shakespeare to avoid his return fire. He'll fall to the ground after a few shots, stunned. Run up and punch him while you have the chance. Shakespeare will then appear on a different cloud - target him like before and repeat this until he's down for good.

With Shakespeare down, the gates leading into Heaven will open, and the remainder of the Simpsons family will join you - nice!


There are two gates ahead which prevent most of the Simpsons from getting past, so you'll have to work your way across the clouds to a switch that Bart can flip.


Have Bart navigate around the fence by running through the house on the left, then drop to the walkway below and look for a platform extending from the walkway. From there, grapple to the cloud, then to a second one beyond. From here, jump to the nearby cloud moving up and down, then leap from it when it's at its highest point to the stationary cloud above. Grapple to one more cloud from here, then make a flying leap and glide to a switch visible on the far side - you should barely make it. Flip the switch to open the gates and reunite the Simpsons family.

Turn around to find a giant staircase with a closed fence at the top. Take down the space aliens that attack first, then have Homer ball-boost near the top of the staircase to sail over either side of the fence. Once over, turn around and pull the switch to open the gate, letting the other Simpsons through.

Have Lisa interact with the meditation statue and use Buddha's hand to freeze a dolphin, then drop the resulting ice cube on the burning coals in the center, creating an air current.

Use Bart's cape to ride the current up, then sail over the building on the right to a switch on the floor.

Now switch to Homer and have him inhale the helium from the canister on the right side of the steam baths and hover over the same wall and step on the second switch, opening the gate.

Now that the Simpsons family has escaped the steam bath, switch to Marge and recruit the four citizens standing outside Skybucks. Put them to work on the nearby construction site, which leads into a boss battle with Benjamin Franklin.

Benjamin Franklin puts up quite a fight for an old guy. The best way to beat him is to attack him from afar - like really far, using Bart's slingshot. As you do so, alternate moving left and right to avoid his return fire.

After dealing enough damage. Franklin will split into two smaller ones - each of whom will split into two more. Just keep at a distance and target them all until dead. If you run low on ammo, run in and grab the energy dropped by some of the Benjamin's.


Continue through the gates and up the staircase to find God.

Okay, now this may be the best "boss fight" of all time - a dance off with God in a DDR parody playing to the Scorpion's "Rock You Like a Hurricane." This is really easy, but also really fun. Simply tap the corresponding button as they enemies scroll over them. Complete all 3 waves to best God at his own game.
