Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare

And now it's your nightmare


Genre: action - platform

Publisher: Flying Edge

Year: 1993

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

Ill-conceived, non sensical game design. Wander along a street that acts as a level select hub, but is just mindless filler. Your only purpose in this street hub is to avoid the same 5 enemies while watching for a piece of paper to jump onto. That let's you enter a level. Controls are incredibly stiff and eats inputs like crazy. Two attack buttons exist but do nothing The whole thing feels extremely small and constrained


Level Design Score: 1

Level Design Notes:

Levels are dumb mini games that are one trick ponies. I didn't encounter one that I liked.


Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

The Simpsons are cool. This game hearkens back to the era when Bart was the main character of the share rather than Homer


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Looks good in screenshots but animation is minimal. Great use of color


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:

Terrible music and sound


Overall Score: 26

Review ID: 1236
