Use character-inspired powers to help Homer, Marge, Bart, and Lisa save the world in this all-new Simpsons video game.
The first new level, The Land of Chocolate, serves as the game's tutorial. For those unfamiliar with the classic fantasy sequence, this level is set in a candy-fueled dream had by Homer. The level opens with a cinematic that's right out of the cartoon and then segues to gameplay. Your goal in the level is to follow a white chocolate rabbit through a chocolate village and to the top of a cake. Along the way, you're filled in on the basics of gameplay and the various collectibles in the game.
The game's presentation makes smart use of the processing power of both consoles. The graphical muscle is devoted to ensuring the characters and environments look authentic when compared to the cartoon. As such, the character's animations, both in action and when idle, look great. In addition, the environments are spruced up by some high-tech flourishes, such as transparencies and other special effects that look sharp.
