The Simpsons: Bart’s Nightmare

The Bartman returns to the Sega Genesis in The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare from Flying Edge. This wild and wacky one-player platform/action game puts you inside Bart Simpson's mind while he's asleep and in the midst of a nightmare! Save Bart from his nightmare and recover his homework before it's too late, or he'll find himself con- 1 demned to fourth grade forever.

Your place of entry into the nightmare is the Windy World. From this area you reach the five Other Worldly Worlds that hold the missing pieces of homework. To reach the doorways of Worlds, you need to chase down and jump on the blowing pages.

In the Other Worldly Worlds you can breath fire and stomp buildings flat as Bartzilla, chase Itchy and Scratchy with hammers while they try to flatten you and even shoot Mr Bums out of the air as the famous Bartman. Each of the five worlds holds one or two pieces of homework, depending on its length and difficulty. The strategy to beating a world is to play and replay, learning the challenges and patterns to overcome.

Bart's Nightmare has the look and feel of the cartoon that made Ban Simpson a household name. The music and digital sound effects' are on tatget as well. With a straightforward control interface and some tricky game play, The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare is a great choice for players who want a good challenge and a change from the typical run-n-jump games.
