Play Simpsons, The - Bart Vs The Space Mutants (USA, Europe) Online

I remember picking up Bart vs. The Space Mutants for the Sega Genesis back in 1992. It was developed by Imagineering Inc, and it felt like a typical licensed game of that era, trying to capture the show's humor while fitting into the platforming genre. The game let you run around as Bart Simpson in a side scrolling version of Springfield, which was a fun idea even if the execution was a bit rough around the edges.

You control Bart through several levels, each with a clear goal: stop the aliens from collecting items for their mutant device. Your main tools are your slingshot for breaking purple objects and a skateboard for faster movement across longer stretches. The game requires careful timing to avoid enemies like shopkeepers and security guards, and it can get frustratingly difficult in some sections due to awkward jumps and instant death pitfalls. Playing it feels like a mix of curiosity and mild annoyance, as you explore each screen hunting for purple things while trying not to get caught.
